Chapter 5 Preliminary Understanding

Wanli called at night.

"I went back to the clinic in the afternoon and didn't find you, and I was afraid that you wouldn't call your phone if you were busy with the case." He said, "How is it today?"

“It’s not that.”

"Why are you so weak that you didn't sleep well last night?"

"Yeah." Actually, she has been very tired all these days, but because she is afraid of having nightmares again, she is a little worried about sleeping every day. Now she is thinking about whether she should not sleep.

"Have you gone to find Ruan Zhan?" Wanli asked tentatively, "You won't forget, my psychic friend!"

"How can you have a friend who can communicate with others?! I have seen you a friend who is very ungrateful." When he mentioned Ruan Zhan, Xiao Xia had an unknown fire from somewhere, and immediately changed from a half-dead state to almost furious.

"It seems you've looked for him."

"twice!"

"That means he won't agree to help you?"

"You asked me to go even though you knew the result? Do you deliberately embarrass me?"

"Hey, let me make some sense. I have said that he is afraid of trouble and may not agree. But I didn't expect you to be angry. He has always had a good reputation among women."

"Those women don't have eyes, but I have grown. Actually, I asked someone for help. It's a duty to help others. It's not entirely for your sake. I have something to be angry and complain about, but I have no obligation to help me. But I'm just angry with his expression. His face is so beautiful and friendly, and actually refuses everything and is indifferent to anything. He looks gentle prince charming, but he is actually an evil prince charming! He has no human feelings, no love, no conscience!" Xiao Xia was so angry. Although she also knew that asking for help was to be humble and the result was unknown, she was so angry that she couldn't beat Ruan Zhan's face, and she didn't know why.

"It's better to be angry, it's better to be angry, and it can transfer other bad emotions."

"Thousand miles!"

"Okay, okay, don't be angry. Tomorrow - no, I can't get rid of myself tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, I'll go find him with you the day after tomorrow. This kid is too disrespectful to me, and I don't see who is asking him for his business. Lawyer Yue asked him to do a little favor, don't he respect him!"

"I won't go!"

"Why don't you go? The more he is afraid of trouble, the more annoyed him, he will be so annoyed! Then he will die!" Wanli said as Xiao Xia said. He knew that Xiao Xia was very childish when he got angry, so it would be better to arouse her revenge and competitive spirit than to comfort her. He still couldn't tell whether Xiao Xia's endless nightmare was a psychological problem or a trauma, so he had to figure out the truth no matter what.

Sure enough, Xiaoxia expressed acquiescence.

"Actually, you can't blame him too much." Wanli said good things to Ruan Zhan again, "Everyone has different temperaments and natures. Ruan Zhan is a person who is not very easy to understand. Even if I am, I can't fully understand him. However, I didn't expect that you could see through his disguise at once, which is amazing!"

"Tsk, don't you see who I am?"

"Yes, your intuition is your greatest advantage. You should choose to walk with me. It's a pity to be a lawyer."

"What else do you have to say in one go?"

"That's not all that can be said in one night! Or talk about Ruan Zhan. You are not interested in knowing why we are friends, and why do I say he can communicate with others?"

"Not interested." Xiao Xia was angry, but she was so curious that she was itchy.

"Then let's listen to it as a bedtime story. He and I have been friends for many years. In fact, we met at the age of seven, and it has been twenty-four years now. He is not his father's biological son. He was picked up by his father when he was five years old, and later adopted him. I don't know if he still remembers what happened before he was five years old, but he never said it. His adoptive father was a Taoist priest who wanted to defeat all monsters and monsters and break all feudal superstitions, so he had to return to secular life and later lived in our town. His father is very accomplished in the knowledge of ancient Chinese literature and miscellaneous studies, and even his name was taken from ancient books."

"Stop talking nonsense. His name is nothing profound except for a little weird."

"I don't know, his name comes from "Book of Jin - Ruan Zhan meets ghosts". I heard that Ruan Zhan was a ghostless person in ancient times. Later, he met a man who debated with him. In the end, the man lost, but told Ruan Zhan that he was a ghost and turned into a form. Ruan Zhan fell ill in surprise and died later. I don't know why his father named him this name, which may be a metaphor for him to have some ability, but it may not be true. Just like when you were born in Xia Tian, ​​you are called Xiaoxia. My parents hope that I can travel thousands of miles, so my name is Wanli."

"How did you know that he has the 'that' ability?" It was late at night, and Xiao Xia did not dare to say the word 'ghost', but this was the most curious about the relationship between Wanli and Ruan Zhan.

"I knew he was only seven years old when I met him. That year, something strange happened to our school, and then there were some supernatural events when I went to college. However, I can't tell you for the time being that your mental state is unstable and you will be frightened. I will find an opportunity to tell you later. In short, believe me, he can indeed see things we can't see and can expel them."

"Aren't you afraid? Are you still friends with him?"

"I'm afraid! Why aren't I afraid? But I'm too curious and overcome my fear. Having said that, our fate is really great. We were all in the same class from elementary school to junior high school, and men and women were in class and deskmates when we were in middle school. After our family went to Chongqing in high school, we still contacted him who was staying in his hometown. Later, he didn't reply to me. I thought we were separated, but who thought that I met him again when I was in college in Beijing, and it was still in the same department."

"He also studied psychology?" Xiaoxia was surprised. No wonder he was so good at disguising, but that could not escape her Yue Xiaoxia's golden eyes.

"Yes. But he has disappeared after graduation. Later, I came to work in the city and didn't expect to meet him again. At that time, he opened that bar, and I don't know why he didn't work in his major. But you see, after going around, we always meet him. He was born to be friends and could not escape."

"It sounds like you've been pursuing him." Xiao Xia sarcastically.

"Hey? It's really similar. He is very passive about feelings. I think it's not because we have known each other for too long, but because I'm a kind and kind person, it's hard for us to be friends."

"I think that's because you became friends at a young age."

"Yes, this is a key factor. No matter how children reject the outside world, they are always easy to make friends with each other. If I only knew him after he became an adult, he would probably treat me as you said - he looked kind and gentle on the outside, but in fact he would keep people from reaching a thousand miles."

"It's all your fault. Even though he knows that he has that kind of personality, he still refuses to go with me." Xiao Xia remembered Ruan Zhan's polite and firm rejection again, and couldn't help but feel that his self-esteem was hurt.

"You don't understand this." Wanli felt Xiaoxia's unwillingness and quickly expressed his thoughts, "No matter what, if I want to help you, I'm betraying him, because I promised not to tell him. He would be angry that I betrayed my promise, so I would be bad things when I take action. When he gets angry, I'll have a better chance of appearing."

"But can he really help me?"

"You don't need to doubt people, and you don't doubt people. I don't know if anyone is better than him, but I only know him, so this is the only one I can help you. Don't think too much, have a good night's sleep, and we'll go find him the day after tomorrow. Whether there are dates or not, just try it. Okay, I'm going to hang up the phone, good night."

"Good night."

After hanging up the phone, Xiaoxia began to worry again. Are she still sleeping? She would have nightmares, but she couldn't stand it and was frightened repeatedly. Don't she sleep? She has to go to work tomorrow, and now she is feeling heavy and uncomfortable.
