Chapter 172 - Chapter 172: Ghosts All Around

"Doctor, I really didn't lie. I'm going crazy..."

In an old building, in a narrow office with a sign saying "psychological counseling", Li Mengmeng looked haggardly at the psychologist in a white coat and glasses across the desk, trembling nervously: "From that day on, I never dared to see my best friend again. I really feel like I'm being stared at by something. That person, he..."

"It's terrible, really, it's terrible."

"..."

"Hehe, don't be nervous, your situation is very common."

The psychologist pushed his glasses with a smile, looked at the documents in front of him, and said, "Are you about to graduate?"

Li Mengmeng nodded: "Yes, but..."

"That's it..."

The psychologist smiled and said, "You just graduated, you have to find a job and start a family. It's normal to have a lot of psychological pressure, but you don't have to worry. There are still many jobs now. Pay attention to venting your emotions and don't put so much pressure on yourself..."

"No, it's really not..."

Li Mengmeng interrupted the psychologist and bit her lips hard.

She couldn't help but think of all the weird things that happened in the past two days.

After she ran away from her best friend's house overnight that night, she never dared to see her again.

But the next day, her best friend called her as if nothing had happened, asking her what was wrong and why she wanted to come to see her.

She was so scared that she hung up the phone, and her best friend called her parents again, looking a little angry.

That nightmare-like scene made her feel listless all day.

When it was time to eat at night, she still had no appetite. Her father bought pork ribs to stew for her, but she couldn't eat it.

"Oh, it's normal for good sisters to quarrel. You always have to eat..."

Her father filled a bowl for her and insisted on handing it to her.

"I really don't want to eat, you guys eat..."

Li Mengmeng said, planning to go back to her room to lie down for a while.

"Bang!"

Before she could react, the bowl suddenly fell heavily on the dining table, and the soup and ribs splashed all over her.

Li Mengmeng looked up in horror and saw her father, who was usually kind and smiling, looking at her with a gloomy face and said coldly:

"Reject me, the consequences will be serious..."

"..."

Li Mengmeng was so scared that cold sweats flowed down her body and she slipped to the ground.

She had a high fever, her body was sore and weak, she slept all day, woke up several times, and didn't even dare to see her father. Fortunately, her mother took care of her. While cooling her down with a wet towel, she scolded her father for his bad temper and cooked porridge for her.

"Why does it smell sour?"

When feeding her porridge, her mother suddenly smelled it and said with a smile: "Have you not changed your clothes for several days?"

Li Mengmeng then remembered that she had not changed her clothes for two days.

Her face was flushed, and she begged her mother to give her underwear.

Mom searched the closet for a while and found her underwear. She came over with her hands and smiled as she wanted to change for herself.

"You go out first, I'll change myself."

Li Mengmeng begged her mother, but her mother smiled and said, "What's there to be embarrassed about in front of mom, take it off quickly..."

The more she said that, the more embarrassed Li Mengmeng felt, and she pushed her mother out quickly.

But when she was acting coquettishly, she didn't notice that her mother's face had darkened at some point.

"Pah!"

She suddenly threw her underwear on Li Mengmeng, then grabbed her hair and got close to her face. Her eyes looked red and bloodshot. It was hard to describe the greed, anger, and cat-like teasing in her eyes.

"Do you know..."

There was a sinister smile in her voice: "Reject me, the consequences are very serious..."

At that moment, Li Mengmeng's mind was blank and her heart almost stopped beating.

Looking at her mother's gloomy face, she suddenly remembered the man she had rejected in the coffee shop before.

Finally, the screams that had been uncontrollable rang out.

Dad broke into the room, but what he saw was the overturned porridge bowl and the mother who was at a loss.

"Doctor, please help me, now my family almost thinks I am crazy..."

"But, but I really saw it..."

"..."

Li Mengmeng became more and more nervous as she thought about it, and subconsciously grabbed the sleeve of the psychologist.

"Oh, don't be nervous..."

The psychologist looked down at Li Mengmeng's hand, smiled, and said: "I told you, you are under too much psychological pressure now, and your mental weakness is too serious. You just need professional people to help you with psychological counseling, so..."

His eyes, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, fell on Li Mengmeng.

Slowly moving downwards, he scanned Li Mengmeng's figure, and a slight smile appeared on his face:

"Tonight, I'll treat you to a meal first, and then..."

"..."

"No..."

Li Mengmeng was so scared that she trembled all over and pulled back her palm.

She looked at the psychologist with some surprise, and had a bad premonition in her heart, but she was not very sure.

"No?"

The psychologist calmly tidied his white coat and slowly looked at Li Mengmeng: "Are you sure?"

"If you refuse me, the consequences will be very serious..."

"..."

"Ah..."

Li Mengmeng screamed full of panic and despair.

She rushed downstairs quickly, covering her ears with both hands, feeling that the whole world had gone crazy.

She rushed to the street, where there were the most people, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

She didn't dare to go home, nor did she dare to contact her bestie.

She was full of panic, but didn't know where to go.

In her vision blurred by tears, she saw pedestrians around her passing by her from a distance, as if they were looking at a madman.

"Hello..."

A voice sounded behind her, but it was a kind little girl, looking at her with concern.

Li Mengmeng was full of gratitude, and the little girl suddenly changed her smile and looked at her with a bit of gloom:

"Now, do you know the consequences of rejecting me?"

"..."

"Ah... don't come over..."

Li Mengmeng screamed again and kept backing away.

At this time, the people passing by her suddenly moved a little strangely.

Most of them were still indifferent and quickly walked around, but from time to time someone would suddenly approach her and whisper:

"Reject me, the consequences are very serious..."

After saying this, they had already gone far away, but another person approached again unexpectedly:

"Do you understand the consequences of rejecting me?"

"..."

Li Mengmeng screamed and collapsed looking at those different faces, but the same expression appeared.

They said to her viciously through different mouths: "Bitch, don't you understand yet?"

"You can't refuse me. From the moment I set my eyes on you, you have been mine..."

"I want you to surrender to me..."

"I want you to put away that disgusting expression and kneel on the ground to beg me..."

"..."

"Who are you..."

"Please let me go..."

Li Mengmeng's voice was already a little hoarse, and she was shrouded in a dense fear.

Her hair was messy, her body was weak, and she squatted on the street, crying desperately, crying and shouting.

If reason is like a thread, then this thread is constantly being impacted, and it has reached an extremely fragile time. She can't even say anything else, just squatting on the ground crying, and constantly shouting: "Forgive me, please forgive me..."

The pedestrians around her looked at her from a distance and didn't dare to approach.

Only in the crowd, occasionally a cold face would appear, and then disappear quickly.

Li Mengmeng's crying became weaker, and she might collapse in the next second.

But at this moment, a hand was placed on Li Mengmeng's shoulder.

Li Mengmeng screamed in fear and sat down on the ground, crawling back while looking at the person in front of her.

It was a young man sitting on a motorcycle, with one leg on the ground. He looked a little ordinary, like an office worker that can be seen everywhere in this satellite city. He looked at her quietly, holding a tissue in his hand and handed it to her.

Li Mengmeng was afraid of everyone and didn't dare to approach him at all.

But the young man smiled. He stepped off the motorcycle stand and leaned over to hand the tissue to Li Mengmeng.

"Don't worry, I'm here to help you!"

His smile was warm, and he comforted her softly: "It's okay now."
