Mingyi Yu quickly replied to Xiao Qian, and he successfully applied to cooperate with Xiao Qian’s treatment. However, the location was not in this city, but in the grassland area not far from here. There was more than a month left until the college’s final exams, so Xiao Qian and Dong Yi took a 3-day leave. “Boss Qian, where are you taking me?” After asking for leave from school, Xiao Qian pushed Dong Yi directly into the taxi.
“My relative is sick, and they want me to visit, but I’m scared to go alone since it’s so far away. Can you accompany me?”
When Dong Yi heard this, she thought it was just in the suburbs of the city, so she agreed.
But when the taxi arrived at the train station and Boss Qian pushed her onto the train, Dong Yi realized that she might have been tricked.
“Is the train ticket expensive?” Until now, the first question that came to Dong Yi’s mind was this.
“Aren’t you afraid that I sold you in the mountains?”
This incident should be spread in the dormitory later, especially to Shi Touyu, who might be kidnapped and sold in the future.
There is a kind of kidnapping that occurs between acquaintances. Girls must learn to protect themselves; and Dong Yi is obviously one who is prone to being kidnapped.
“Impossible, you are Uncle’s brother’s girlfriend.”
One of the main reasons Dong Yi believes Boss Qian is that.
Xiao Qian declined Mingyi Yu’s offer to let her and Dong Yi ride in his car, as she wanted to create a coincidental effect. If everything is too deliberate, the treatment effect will not be good.
From here to the agreed-upon location, it would take about 4 hours by train, and now they were waiting for departure.
Xiao Qian bought hard seats, and opposite them sat a young couple. The girl had waist-length hair, and the guy had a very rare and at least 10-year-ahead Mohawk hairstyle. Both sides of his head were shaved, revealing greenish scalp, with yellow hair in the middle, which was eye-catching.
“Excuse me, beautiful ladies, can I use the table?” The young man said to Xiao Qian.
Xiao Qian nodded, and the young man took out a tablecloth from his bag, spread it on the table, and then took out a somewhat old-looking box. Xiao Qian recognized at a glance that it was an ivory box.
The young man’s fingers were long and neatly trimmed. He took out a stack of cards from the box – tarot cards.
He was proficiently cutting the cards, starting to do a reading for his girlfriend. Xiao Qian saw that he was using the Gypsy Cross Method. Initially, his girlfriend was giggling and listening, but gradually she couldn’t laugh anymore.
“This card in the middle represents the surrounding situation, Snow. I have a love rival, right?”
“What are you talking about? How can you believe something like tarot cards!” The girl was obviously guilty.
The guy continued as if he hadn’t heard her, turned over the fifth card, the corner of his mouth with a faint smile, his eyes sharp as he looked at the girl, “The fifth card represents the result of our relationship…”
His slender fingers pinched a card and handed it to the girl. Xiao Qian curiously looked at it.
The card showed a monster with goat horns stepping on a rock, only its back visible. This was the Devil card in the tarot deck.
“Snow, you are addicted to material enjoyment and lack a spiritual pillar. You think being with me is a wrong path, so you choose another path, one that is acceptable by society, right?”
“Stop talking…” The girl cried.
The young man gently wiped away her tears and handed her the luggage that was with him.
“So, you can’t accompany me to the faraway place. I respect your choice. There are still 3 minutes before the train departs. Get off and go back to where you belong.”
“Qiuqiu, I— ”
“Don’t say anything. When we were together, I told you that whenever you want to quit the relationship, you can. Go.”
The girl cried, picked up her bag, and left.
The train started moving, leaving behind only the stylish Mohawk-haired guy opposite. He took out a pack of cigarettes and left to smoke in the aisle. When he stood up, Xiao Qian saw that his eyes were red.
The tarot cards were still on the table.
“Boss Qian…” Dong Yi, who had watched from the beginning, hesitated to speak.”
“Do you want to ask, how can a deck of cards be so accurate?”
“Yes.”
“Tarot cards originated from curiosity about the future and have a thousand thoughts and moods connected to psychology. Many psychological experts are tarot masters. People who don’t understand might think this is superstition, but I don’t like to call tarot fortune-telling; I prefer to describe it as reading cards. Tarot cards express a certain level of interpretation of people’s subconscious, and they are very valuable for learning.”
Xiao Qian was not a tarot master, only knowing a little about the subject. One important reason was that among psychologists, there are two kinds: those who face the tarot and those who believe there is no scientific support, like her mentor Liu Linlin. Although Xiao Qian learned a bit on her own, she didn’t become proficient, as she would be scolded if her teacher saw her fiddling with these things.
“Did they really break up? That’s a pity…” Dong Yi felt that breaking up because of a deck of cards was a very incomprehensible thing.
Xiao Qian’s eyes sparkled behind her glasses, and the young man said that they were not accepted by society and it seemed that they would elope if the girl didn’t regret it. Combined with the boy’s excessively gentle and considerate actions, it seemed that she understood something.
“Da Yi, if you become a psychotherapist in the future, you might face a lot of problems every day. Do you know what the most difficult problem to solve is?” “What is it?”
“It’s the multiple-choice questions where no matter how you choose, you will be wrong,” Xiao Qian replied.
“If we compare fate to the person who sets the questions, when the questioner sets this question, they are already wrong. The psychotherapist who solves the question is very tangled – no matter which choice the patients make, there will be a mistake. On the one hand, they are facing the scrutiny of secular ethics; on the other hand, they are facing human instincts. If you let them follow their instincts, their hearts will be liberated, but they will have to face the scrutiny of society. If you let them integrate into society, their hearts will be in pain for a lifetime.”
“I don’t understand.”
“There are many such situations, such as forgetting one’s past and having alternate personalities, and gender recognition—- ”
Xiao Qian hadn’t finished speaking when she saw the guy coming back, stopping the conversation and saying no more.
The young man’s body was full of smoke, and there was an additional pair of sunglasses on his eyes, making his fashionable appearance more mischievous.
Seeing that he was going to pack up the cards, Xiao Qian suddenly spoke.
“Can I borrow the cards for a moment?”
The young man hesitated slightly, then nodded and handed the cards to Xiao Qian.
Xiao Qian shuffled the cards and then showed them to Dong Yi, “Choose one you like.”
“This one.” Dong Yi chose one.
“The Moon, huh… Da Yi, look, this card suggests you will face fear, and there are so many stars around it, which means that the power of the stars will help you to get through difficulties.”
“Pfft!” The young man laughed.
“Miss, that’s not how tarot cards work.”
Xiao Qian returned his laugh, “Draw one for yourself and see if my prediction is accurate.”
The young man casually picked a card, “Here, I can teach you if you want to learn, but tarot cards really don’t work this way.”
Xiao Qian pushed her glasses, “If I say it works, then it does. Trust me, I’m very accurate..”
