Chapter 0104 Give me a minute

　　The house was clean, the floor was covered with a thick carpet, the edges of the tables and cabinets were wrapped with thick cloths, and a fruit plate could be seen on the coffee table, but there were no knives or sharp objects on display.

　　”Dr. Gao, please come in.” A woman in a white shirt welcomed Dr. Gao and Chen Ge in, she looked to be around forty years old and well maintained.

　　”Is Wang Xin’s condition better?”

　　”The sleeping pills and the two antidepressants you prescribed are both being used, but the effect is very poor.” The woman let out a bitter smile, “The condition hasn’t gotten much better, instead the side effects are a bit obvious, dry heaving, shaking hands, cold shivers, and during lunch today, her chopsticks didn’t even hold steady, and the vegetables she was pinching fell all over the place. Dr. Gao, do you think Wang Xin, can she still get better?”

　　”Trust me, she will definitely get better.”

　　”En.” The woman only saw Chen Ge following behind at this time, “Who is this?”

　　”My name is Chen Ge.” Chen Ge was unwilling to delay outside the door, “Can you let me meet your daughter?”

　　”This ……” The woman twisted her head and glanced at Dr. Gao, seemingly seeking the other party’s opinion.

　　”I will accompany him inside.”

　　Only after Dr. Gao nodded did the woman somewhat reluctantly let Chen Ge in, “That child is in the bedroom, and after just one bite of lunch, he cried out again.”

　　The woman walked to a door to a room in the inner room and knocked gently, half a day without a response, she twisted the handle and pushed the door open a crack.

　　Without speaking, the woman sighed and stepped back to the side.

　　”Let’s go in.” Dr. Gao gazed at Chen Ge, “Don’t ever irritate the patient, and discuss with me before you’re ready to do anything.”

　　”Good.” Chen Ge repeated his assurance before entering Wang Xin’s room with Dr. Gao.

　　The carpet had been thickened, the corners of the closet and table had all been smoothed, there were no sharp things to be seen in the room, and the windows had been fitted with security grills.

　　There was no bed placed in the room, only two layers of thick mattresses stacked on top of each other, and all the decorations were solid colors without too many patterns.

　　Dr. Gao moved his body to the side, and it was then that Chen Ge saw the target he was looking for.

　　There was a slender girl lying on the mattress, she was wearing a loose round-necked white blouse and a pair of light blue shorts underneath.

　　Her skin was very white, and her limbs were spread out weakly, giving the impression as if they would break if she wasn’t careful.

　　Discovering that someone had come in, the girl slowly sat up from the mattress, completely different from what Chen Ge had imagined, she looked normal, just a bit non-verbal.

　　”Wang Xin, does your head still hurt?” The upright Dr. Gao, gently squatted next to the mattress, keeping his body below the other party’s line of sight.

　　The girl shook her head, glanced at Chen Ge, and quickly withdrew her gaze again.

　　”Can you fall asleep then?” Dr. Gao continued to ask, and the girl’s reaction was more intense this time, as she reached out and grabbed her hair, very hard, and when she took her hand away again, her fingers were full of long black hair that had been pulled down raw.

　　”Still can’t sleep, huh?” Standing up, Dr. Gao’s brow furrowed, “Neither medication is working?”

　　”Dr. Gao, can you let me have a word with her?”

　　”Wang Xin is still in a stable condition, so if you have anything to say, just say it.”

　　Chen Ge walked over, and he crouched down in front of the girl as Dr. Gao had done.

　　The girl probably thought of him as a doctor as well and didn’t resist too much, she just tugged at her sleeve to cover up a red mark on her arm, which seemed to have been scratched out by herself.

　　The girl in front of her was very fragile, she gave off the impression of being like a kite made of paper, all tethered by a thin thread, the slightest inattention would cause it to crumble, fly into the dark clouds, and finally be torn apart by the wind and rain.

　　”Wang Xin.” Chen Ge took out the ballpoint pen wrapped in transparent tape from his pocket, “Your friend has been wanting to say something to you, I brought her here.”

　　Wang Xin glanced at the rod of ballpoint pen and didn’t show too much particular emotion, she probably wanted to try to smile a little in response to Chen Ge’s not-so-funny cold joke, but she realized that she couldn’t do it at all.

　　Next to her, Dr. Gao and the woman lying outside the door eavesdropping were also confused, and really couldn’t figure out what Chen Ge was doing.

　　When Wang Xin didn’t respond, Chen Ge wasn’t in a hurry, he took out a piece of white paper from the desk and placed it on the mattress, holding the pen vertically and posing to play the Pen Fairy game.

　　Chen Ge was turning his back to Dr. Gao and facing Wang Xin, he only opened his mouth without making a sound and silently recited the first few sentences of the Pen Fairy game through his mouth.

　　Pen Fairy, Pen Fairy, you are mine ……

　　With her mouth open and closed, Wang Xin’s attention was slowly attracted by Chen Ge, and for the first time, she turned her head completely around and looked at Chen Ge’s mouth, and suddenly, as if she had remembered something very horrible, she waved her arms frantically, and her body kept squeezing into the corner.

　　”What did you do?!” The woman outside the door rushed in and joined Dr. Gao in stopping Chen Ge.

　　”I’m helping her open her heart.” Chen Ge carefully protected the ballpoint pen in his hand, “Something happened to Wang Xin that none of us know about, and that thing is the cause of her illness! Give me a minute, I just need a minute!”

　　He was resolute, nursing the pen as he lay down on the side of the bed, before he came he was only here to fulfill the Pen Fairy’s mission, but after actually seeing the girl in pain, Chen Ge suddenly felt that he should do something about it.

　　”Why don’t we just let him try.” After a few moments of stalemate, Dr. Gao chose to believe Chen Ge for once: “During my treatment of Wang Xin, she has never shown similar emotions, so maybe there really is hope this time.”

　　The women were eventually convinced by Dr. Gao, and they were willing to give Chen Ge three minutes.

　　The two of them walked outside the door of the room, Chen Ge got up and pulled the curtains shut and closed the door tightly.

　　”Wang Xin, your friend has been wanting to say something to you.” He re-hovered his pen over the white paper and mouthed silently.

　　”Pen Fairy, Pen Fairy, you are my past life, I am your present life ……”

　　As Chen Ge recited silently, the girl hiding in the corner became more and more frightened, the memories that had haunted her like a nightmare for several years surfaced again.

　　Chen Ge ruthlessly continued, and before long, the pen hovering over the paper suddenly moved on its own, and then wrote down beautiful handwriting on the white paper, which was completely different from Chen Ge’s.

　　”Wang Xin, I didn’t think that a joke I made back then would cause you so much harm, you must hate me a lot, right?”

　　Seeing the familiar script on the white paper, Wang Xin froze, in that moment she felt her heart was empty, she herself didn’t know why such emotions appeared.

　　”My death has nothing to do with you, that day I just saw you with someone else and wanted to scare you on purpose, after lassoing the rope, but I didn’t expect the chair to suddenly slip.”

　　”You didn’t do anything wrong, this is just a small prank by the despicable and selfish me.”

　　”I’m sorry, Wang Xin. I don’t ask you to forgive me, I just hope that you won’t be affected by me anymore, and try to live a hard, happy life.”
