Another weekend, Bai Ziren went to the psychological clinic as usual, and told the truth to his mother before leaving the house. Liu Xinyu was surprised when he found out, and confirmed several times: "You really have been seeing a psychologist?"

"Well, I went there five times."

"Xiaoren, do you feel that there is something wrong with you? Is it serious enough to go to that place?"

Bai Ziren couldn't answer clearly for a while, so he just nodded.

Liu Xinyu's expression stagnated, as if she couldn't accept the fact, and finally nodded slowly: "Then you go early and come back early."

Although Bai Ziren told her whereabouts, she concealed the fact that Cheng Jingbo came to pick her up in person. When she went downstairs, she saw a familiar car when she walked out of the gate of the community.

The winter sun is gentle and not dazzling, she can see him clearly behind the glass at a glance, he is sitting there, holding a book in his hand, lowering his eyes, reading quietly, when she quietly takes a step forward, he suddenly raises his eyes, ink-colored There was a gleam of light in his pupils, and he looked at her face, waiting for her to come over.

After she got into the car, he did something naturally, but she was a little flattered, he helped her fasten her seat belt.

Not only that, he also opened the drawer in the car and showed her the stocked snacks.

Bai Ziren remembered the funny story of him sitting at the same table in elementary school, and asked him: "If you buy me so much food, will I become as fat as sitting at the same table as you?"

"It would be great if it really became like that."

Bai Ziren was a little ashamed and touched his cheek: "I have been thin since I was a child, and for a while I looked like I was malnourished."

"Do you want Dr. Cheng to introduce a Chinese medicine doctor to help you tonic?"

"No, I'll eat more."

As she spoke, she carefully took a small box of red bean oatmeal biscuits in the drawer, but the strange thing was that she failed to tear off the wrapping paper.

"Open here." He took it from her hand, tore it open for her, and returned it to her.

"Oh, so that's how it is." She was thinking, what's going on, usually even a can of saury can be opened by hand, but today she couldn't even open a pack of biscuits.

"Eat slowly, there is a thermos next to you, filled with hot water, drink when you are thirsty." He touched her head with his hand.

With a click, she bit too hard, almost biting her tongue...

Why does he act like she is a child? Although she was a little uncomfortable, she didn't reject it at all.

Halfway through the drive, Cheng Jingbo said intentionally or unintentionally, "The dress is beautiful."

"real?"

"Well, but it's best to tidy up before getting out of the car. The skirt on the left is opened a bit high."

Hearing this, she lowered her head and pulled it to cover the place that shouldn't be exposed. As soon as she finished packing, she heard him say, "Don't be seen by the second person."

"..."

He clearly meant that he had seen her, and she immediately wanted to dig a hole in the ground and jump in to hide.

Seeing her embarrassment, he stopped talking and drove slowly, occasionally turning his head to see if she was seated properly.

When they arrived at the hospital, after Bai Ziren met with Dr. Chen, they talked for an hour as usual. In the last ten minutes, Chen Zhe put away his notebook and just looked at her: "Are you in love?"

Bai Ziren froze, but did not deny it.

"Just started?"

Bai Ziren still didn't deny it.

"Let me guess, shouldn't the object be someone we know together?"

Bai Ziren thought for a moment, decided to admit the fact, and nodded, "It's him."

Chen Zhe smiled meaningfully, stretched out his hand to dust the dust on his pants, and said leisurely: "Congratulations, being loved by him should be easy to regain the missing sense of security, it seems that it won't be long before you don't have to see me again This annoying face."

"No, Doctor Chen, you are very nice." Bai Ziren said sincerely.

"It's a pity that you still don't want to tell me what's on your mind."

Bai Ziren felt a little guilty.

Chen Zhe bent down, folded his hands on one knee, and looked directly at her at close range: "Cheng Jingbo is an impeccable person, right?"

"right."

"Then his choice is also impeccable. You should trust his choice and feel that you are good enough to make him like him. He is not something that just any woman can have. If you can have it, it means you are very eye-catching."

"I admit to being lucky."

"It's not just luck, I think it's your charm that convinced him, so girl, start to feel confident now."

At this moment, Bai Ziren met Dr. Chen's gaze, and because of his affirmation, he felt a burst of courage in his heart.

"Thank you, Doctor Chen."

When Bai Ziren came out, Cheng Jingbo noticed that her expression was a little different, and asked her if today's communication went well.

"Dr. Chen said I was a very attractive woman," she told him.

"Oh?" Cheng Jingbo looked at her thoughtfully, "So you're embarrassed?"

"A little."

"Don't be embarrassed, I think most men think the same as him."

Before Bai Ziren had time to be shy, Cheng Jingbo took her hand and added in a normal way: "It's just that Chen Zhe is not as lucky as me."

Bai Ziren thought for a while and said, "I think that what Dr. Chen said is mostly to encourage me and cultivate my self-confidence."

"I know he's not telling the truth. Besides, I never doubt my eyes."

He held Bai Ziren's hand and walked towards the door. After a few steps, he moved a little closer, and his voice was next to her ears.

"You really please me."

"..."

His voice was like a breeze blowing over the fine sand by the sea, low and magnetic, which made her lose her mind if she didn't pay attention.

They went straight to the window in the hospital lobby to get the pre-prepared medicine, and drove to Grandma Xu's house.

This time, Mrs. Xu was standing at the door, stretching her arms and holding up the clothes fork to hang the dried fish pieces on a long rope nailed to the porch. Keeping your mouth shut, you kept calling their names, telling them to come in quickly, it's windy outside, so don't get frostbitten.

After entering the house, Mrs. Xu served them red dates and longan milk tea made by herself. Cheng Jingbo asked about Fang Rong. Mrs. Xu said that she had signed up for a winter vacation training class. She would go three days a week and would have two hours of art today. Class, and I won't be back in another hour.

Bai Ziren found that there was a fresh and beautiful landscape painting on the wall of the living room. Under the fluorescent light, he could clearly see the sporadic ink on the corners that hadn't dried completely. It should have been completed not long ago.

"It's Fang Rong's latest work." Mrs. Xu's words were not without boasting, "Since I chatted with you last time, she has become more serious. Although she can't change her playfulness, she will grow old every day. Sit down and practice writing for hours."

Bai Ziren listened quietly to Mrs. Xu's conversation, and soon Mrs. Xu changed the subject and said to her with a smile: "Xiao Bai, you are on vacation too, don't always bury your head in reading, let Jing Bo take you out to play more Play."

"Okay." She replied obediently.

"What a good girl, Jing Bo, you are really a lucky person."

Cheng Jingbo asked with some interest: "How do you say?"

"I don't see people astray. Xiaobai has a very kind heart, is a peaceful person, and is a person who knows how to share adversity." Mrs. Xu looked at them kindly, "She is different from those pretty girls. Don't be greedy for vanity, don't have those unrealistic ideas, the important thing is to do things with peace of mind, and when you get married and have children, you will teach them well, and you don't have to worry about men."

When Bai Ziren heard this, he vaguely remembered the last time he stayed here for dinner. Mrs. Xu complained to the juniors, saying that her youngest son had no conscience, and he didn't know when to come back to see her when he had time. Most likely, he was provoked by his wife, and his heart ached. gap.

Unsurprisingly, Mrs. Xu mentioned her youngest daughter-in-law in the next sentence, and blamed her for being too high-minded and always looking down on others. Son, I just found out that my youngest daughter-in-law has already traveled to Europe with a group. You don’t need to think about whose money you spent, and what you bought back is a bunch of flashy things. It’s good to keep going like this. They’ve been married for a few years. I don't have any savings, I'm really dizzy.

As soon as this conversation started, the old man couldn't hold back and chattered for a long time, and neither listener interrupted her, and finally she felt a little better when she said it, "Look, it's better than Xiaobai, marrying a wife is the right thing to do." Xian, the old saying is true, Jing Bo, you will not be wrong if you listen to me."

Bai Ziren rubbed his nose in embarrassment, thinking that Grandma Xu was thinking too far, they were just getting started, so it's better not to talk, but to drink tea with head down.

"Your words are as correct as old sayings." Seeing that the teacher was a little thirsty, Cheng Jingbo took the pot to add water to her teacup.

When Bai Ziren heard the words, his mouth was scalded by hot tea...

Seeing that Mrs. Xu had convinced one, she turned to reason with the other.

"Xiaobai, I won't go into details about the advantages of Jingbo. You must know better than me. Follow him well and ask him for anything. Girls, it's good to act like a baby once in a while. If you have grievances, you should also talk to him directly." Say, don't swallow it in silence, it's easy to hold your breath after a long time, and speaking out will make him cherish you more."

Bai Ziren was a little confused about these old sayings about teaching brides, but he nodded obediently, which made Mrs. Xu even more unable to stop talking.

I don't know how long it took, Cheng Jingbo held her hand under the table, stroked her index finger lightly on her palm, and successfully brought back her drifting thoughts. She came back to her senses and found that Mr. Xu Tai is already saying that it is appropriate for young people to have a few children now.

"Your genes are so good, it would be a pity to have only one."

Bai Ziren was completely speechless, and turned to Cheng Jingbo for help.

Cheng Jingbo smiled: "I think one is enough. Pregnancy in October is hard work. I don't want her time to be wasted on it twice."

Bai Ziren didn't expect him to answer like this, he thought so much about her, his heart moved.

Mrs. Xu thought about it for a while, and nodded in agreement: "That's right, I almost forgot that with Xiaobai's talent, after marriage, she won't just be a housewife, she must also have her own career, with only one child. Quality over quantity."

"Why is quality over quantity?" A playful voice came in.

Bai Ziren looked back and saw that Fang Rong had returned, holding a bunch of strawberries and candied haws.

Fang Rong saw that Teacher Cheng and Sister Bai were both there, and smiled happily: "Mr. Cheng is very handsome today, and my sister is also very beautifully dressed. It is a match made in heaven."

Cheng Jingbo understood the little girl's tricks very well, so she asked her directly: "It sounds so nice, is there anything I can help with?"

Fang Rong scratched her head: "Winter vacation homework, I could have been taught by grandma, but her eyes are not good, and she gets tired after a while."

"Bring it here, I'll teach you." Cheng Jingbo was also very straightforward.

Fang Rong put down her things, went to the back room and brought a bunch of papers, spread them out in the center of the table, and handed two pens to Cheng Jingbo and Bai Ziren, sincerely begging: "Please do me a favor and answer the questions on the papers. The title circled in red."

So, in the next hour, Mrs. Xu was a little tired and went to the bedroom to rest. Cheng Jingbo solved the problem for Fang Rong, and Bai Ziren helped to complete a paper for free.

Fang Rong breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but say happily: "Sure enough, it's the best combination from the book bag planet. With you here, I don't have to worry about my winter homework."

Mrs. Xu read a few words to her little granddaughter, and she immediately retorted: "Grandma, I will be admitted to an art university in the future, and the mathematics requirements are not high, just pass it."

Cheng Jingbo picked up a test paper and knocked on her forehead: "Everything that can be done well should be done well."

Fang Rong was a little dissatisfied, and leaned into Bai Ziren's ear and asked softly, "Is he also so old-fashioned when he talks to you?"

"He never puts on airs of a teacher to me." Bai Ziren said after thinking about it, "More often, he is like a very responsible big brother."

She thought she spoke in a low voice, but the voice just reached Cheng Jingbo's ears. His expression didn't change when he heard the words, but his right index finger tapped the back of his left hand lightly.

But Fang Rong thought about something else, with an expression of disbelief, and after a short hesitation, she asked decisively: "Could it be that you are the legendary Plato in love?"

Bo Ziren didn't expect her to think so fast, and he didn't know how to answer, so he quietly shifted his gaze to Cheng Jingbo's face, seeing his calm expression, his usual faint smile spread across his eyes.

Just when she really couldn't deal with Fang Rong, he came to rescue Fang Rong and explained to Fang Rong: "Many people have misunderstandings about Plato's love. The reason is that the meaning of Plato's dialogues is unclear, but one thing is certain, Instead of trying to confirm one point and deny another, he makes people think."

"Then what exactly did he express?"

"When you are a few years older, you can read his Symposium to find the answer."

"Tell me a little bit now. Usually, no one is willing to talk to me about this. Aren't you afraid that I will go astray if I find the answer by myself?" Fang Rong showed a positive learning attitude in this regard, "Teacher Cheng, in short , do you agree with Plato's view of love?"

Cheng Jingbo replied: "I don't accept all of his views, but I agree with one thing. He believes that in love, both parties are completely equal, and no one is more important. If you chase hard unilaterally, no matter how much you give. Neither is love."

Fang Rong seemed to understand, but she was still chasing after him: "Then is he really against men and women?"

"The real answer can only be found by yourself, and what anyone tells you may be false." He sold a secret.

"What about you? Can you keep your body like a jade all the time, even after marriage?"

Cheng Jingbo's slender fingers paused on the test paper, and told her after a while: "I thought about it a long time ago, but it's impossible now. Through a marriage concluded by both parties, a part of you will naturally become the other's, and it is impossible to keep it by yourself. .”

Fang Rong suddenly realized that she almost applauded, secretly boasting that the teacher Cheng in front of her was indeed much better than the teacher in the school's physiology class. No level.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Jingbo's serious explanation made Bai Ziren beside him think deeply.

He glanced at her and knew it when he saw her eyes, and when Fang Rong was about to continue discussing this knowledge with him, he said lightly: "Now back to the math problem, have you finished the next one? "

Fang Rong couldn't help feeling sorry, and Bai Ziren also came back to his senses when he heard his voice, and listened to him lecturing for her.

After dinner in the evening, the two left Mrs. Xu's house. On the way of strolling, Bai Ziren suddenly asked: "The sentence you said to Fang Rong cannot be preserved on your own. It means that if one party wants to maintain a pure spirit If you fall in love and the other partner disagrees, will you try to stop it? But don’t both of you have to be willing to do such a thing? It doesn’t seem to work if one party doesn’t want to.”

He was looking at the moonlight, and when he heard her doubts, he bowed his head and explained: "If you are really curious, why not try it yourself after marriage, and see how it works when you don't want to."

"..."

Bai Ziren really didn't dare to touch this topic anymore.

Cheng Jingbo grabbed her hand and took the opportunity to pull her closer: "It's okay, if you have any questions in the future, please ask them in time, and I will tell you the answer."

"okay."
