166: Please trust the classmate in charge of psychology.

Shen Qian looked at Xie Wan's message and felt his heart skip a beat. Who wouldn't be moved by a girl like this?

The current Shen Qian was no longer afraid to be moved like before; he could now control his emotions and feelings very well.

He had different strategies for different women, truly achieving a multifaceted persona.

As a man, as long as one doesn't easily give up their bottom line, there's no problem at all in flirting and talking about love with girls.

The fear is that some men, while dating, end up lowering their bottom line indefinitely. Of course, part of this is due to social conditioning, but the main responsibility lies with men not daring to say no.

A new month had arrived, and it was time for psychological counseling again. Shen Qian and Fang Hui sat in the psychological counseling room, receiving one student after another.

There were noticeably fewer girls this time, but more boys.

"Psychology Committee Member, I'm just not feeling right."

"Alright, alright, let's skip the repetitive rhetoric. Just say it, what's wrong?"

"It's my partner. We've been dating since high school, all the way until now. But since starting university, at first, she was very active in replying to messages and video calls."

"But now, I'm gradually feeling like she's a bit cold toward me. When I asked her, she said she doesn't even contact her parents every day, and that my daily contact is pushing her too hard, making her feel suffocated."

"But gradually, the messages became fewer and fewer. I feel like there's a problem with our relationship, so I was thinking about whether I should go see her."

"Sure, go see her. Next."

"But my Roommates all say not to go, that seeing her is meaningless."

"Your Roommates are lying to you. They're all single dogs who are jealous that you have a partner, so they can't wait for you to become single so you can play games and sleep with them. Trust the Psychology Committee Member, go see her; meeting her will solve everything."

"Next."

"But, but I'm afraid. What if she really fell for someone else? What if she betrayed me? We've been together for two years..."

"Have you held hands?"

"We have."

"Have you kissed?"

"We have."

"Have you slept together?"

"Psychology Committee Member, is it necessary to be so blunt?"

"Hey, I'm the Psychology Committee Member. The questions I ask are for your mental health. Please trust in my purity."

"We... we have."

"When did it happen?"

"Does... does that need to be said too?"

The boy looked at Fang Hui beside Shen Qian, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Don't look at her; she's the Deputy Psychology Committee Member. We're doing this for your mental health. Please trust our professionalism."

"During the summer break."

"And in the months after that, was your chat content suggestive?"

"Don't go too far!"

"I'll emphasize this one last time: I'm doing this for your mental health, not just to gossip. Please answer my question directly, or we'll just move to the next person."

"A little bit, I guess."

"So where is your Girlfriend going to school now?"

"An City."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Look at you, look at you. This is where you're wrong. You're always talking about such passionate things with the girl, but you're not by her side."

"Even if she really finds someone else, that's on you."

"As youth of the new era, instead of thinking about studying hard and making progress every day, your head is full of dirty thoughts. I really want to fine you 800 yuan!"

"I! You!"

"In fact, didn't you already know the answer the first time she took forever to reply to your message?"

"But if you're really not ready to give up, you can take a trip. After all, An City has quite a few tourist attractions. Go have fun, and maybe have a bowl of mutton pita bread soup while you're at it."

"But I'd rather you go for a trip and see her along the way, instead of seeking an answer you already know."

The boy's eyes dimmed a bit. He nodded and walked out the door, looking despondent.

"By the way, before you go, you can download a chat app and set your target location to An City. Who knows, you might get to travel and meet an internet friend. If your Girlfriend won't let you touch her, you can always try someone else!"

Fang Hui was stunned listening from the side. Especially Shen Qian's final suggestion—what on earth was that?

"I thought you were going to comfort him."

"What's there to comfort? His Roommates have probably said all the comforting words already, yet he still showed up here today."

"People are just like that; when they have troubles, they like to spread them to those around them. The goal is to regain the attention they lost from their Girlfriend through others."

"To put it bluntly, it's a giant baby mentality. People should be the masters of their own emotions. If you like someone, you like them; if you don't, don't drag it out."

"I think my final suggestion was very appropriate. Can't come back empty-handed, right?"

"scumbag."

Shen Qian pinched the girl's chin.

"I heard you've been getting close to a senior lately. How is it? Have you won him over yet?"

"Almost. I still need to test him to make sure he's truly honest."

"I didn't perform well last time. Why don't you test me again this time?"

"No, my throat hurt for several days after last time."

"No, you will. And today, I want to play something even more exciting."

As Shen Qian spoke, he took the girl's hand. She didn't pull away, and they stayed like that until the next person came in to share their troubles.

Among those who came to see the Psychology Committee Member today, there were still some confessions, but most had started talking about their personal concerns.

In university, there are many worries. For example, not getting along with Roommates, Roommates asking you to skip class and whether you should, or getting into arguments and how to handle them. Some also feel the major their parents helped choose isn't what they like and want to change it, but fear their parents won't agree, and so on.

When Fang Hui heard some of these problems, she would also frown. After all, she was also a first year; many of the problems others had, she had too.

But Shen Qian could always solve these problems nonchalantly. Sometimes he might not solve the problem directly, but after a series of questions, the person asking would often find the answer themselves.

Fang Hui didn't have much interest in boys her own age. Last time with Shen Qian, it was only because she thought he was handsome and rich, so she didn't feel like she was losing out.

But now it seemed he also possessed a mature charm that didn't belong to his age.

Finally, the last visiting student finished their psychological counseling. Shen Qian let out a long breath, and Fang Hui stood up to massage his shoulders.

"Fang Hui, let's do it here."

Shen Qian pulled her hand, his eyes full of aggression.

The girl looked around and didn't refuse.

"Just... do you have that?"

Shen Qian pulled out a small box.

"You already called me a scumbag, how could I not carry it with me?"

The girl rolled her eyes at him. "scumbag."
