    Chapter 46·Evidence

    Early in the morning, Zhu Mingyue drove Qi Zhixuan to the hospital.

    The car parked steadily in the parking lot, and the two of them walked into the elevator side by side. Zhu Mingyue’s peripheral vision kept falling on him. He had been worried for most of the night last night. Fortunately, Qi Zhixuan’s face was rosy and he seemed to be in good spirits.

    “Did you sleep well?” she asked.

    “It’s not bad. The housekeeper you found is very good and the cleaning is very clean. Thank you, senior sister.” Qi Zhixuan turned to Zhu Mingyue and smiled.

    Excluding the last time Zhu Mingyue went to Beijing unilaterally, they hadn’t seen each other for a while. Qi Zhixuan smiled more than before and had a little more flesh on his face. Zhu Mingyue looked at him and the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.

    He should have come to the hospital a long time ago, but various things made him miss it for several months. Dr. Zeng arranged for Qi Zhixuan to have a basic physical examination before inviting him to the consultation room.

    “It seems to be going well recently.” Dr. Zeng took Qi Zhixuan’s examination report and asked him to sit down with a smile.

    “It’s okay.” Qi Zhixuan put the bag behind him and smiled at Dr. Zeng.

    “How are you now? Is it still difficult to fall asleep? Do you have nightmares?” Dr. Zeng took out the record book and medical record, tapped the pen tip lightly on the paper, and made an assessment while asking.

    “I used to have nightmares for a while, but the frequency was not high. In the past month or two, I have stopped having nightmares.”

    “Well, your energy is still low? It’s been a while since you stopped taking the medicine… Do you still feel troubled by your memory?”

    Qi Zhixuan shook his head. These symptoms were very weak now.

    “What about negative thoughts?”

    “It’s not bad, I’ve recently… started to draw.”

    Dr. Zeng nodded. Zhu Mingyue had mentioned this to him before. This was undoubtedly a great improvement, indicating that his negative cognition was gradually fading and his life was getting back on track.

    “Have you tried anything new recently?” Dr. Zeng continued to ask.Encouraging patients to get in touch with new things can effectively break the stagnant psychological cycle. Qi Zhixuan has done a good job in the past, and even actively tried to travel around the world.

    “Yes, I adopted a stray cat and… fell in love.” Qi Zhixuan smiled sheepishly.

    Hearing this, Dr. Zeng couldn’t help but raise his head, push up his glasses, and look at the person opposite him seriously.

    Qi Zhixuan has been Qi Zhixuan’s doctor for four or five years. He knows that part of the cause of his condition is the hurt caused by his previous relationship. Since then, he has been in a state of emotional avoidance. He did not expect that he would be brave enough to start a new relationship now.

    “Congratulations.” Dr. Zeng’s tone was full of relief, and the corners of his eyes slowly widened. “Having pets and falling in love will be of great help to your recovery.”

    “Thank you Dr. Zeng. He is a very good person. It was only when I met him that I realized that I still long to be loved and still have the ability to love…”

    When Qi Zhixuan talked about this, his voice was very gentle and there was a smile in his eyes.

    Dr. Zeng put down his pen and said softly: “Human beings naturally long to be loved and understood. In the past, you were closed and could not hear the true needs of your heart. Now you have learned to be open. He just understands you, and you will naturally see him. Love is mutual.”

    Love is mutual. Qi Zhixuan nodded slightly and kept these words in his heart.The two chatted for a while, and Dr. Zeng arranged a psychological test for him, and the results were very satisfactory.Finally, based on the development of his condition over the past few years, Qi Zhixuan was diagnosed with a clinical cure.

    “Clinical cure!” Zhu Mingyue took the diagnosis and turned around in a circle. She was still wearing high heels and almost didn’t fall.

    “Senior sister, be careful.” Qi Zhixuan quickly gave her a hand.

    This journey has not been easy, and Dr. Zeng was also happy for them, but with the rigor of a doctor, he still warned them, “Although it is clinically cured, there is still a risk of recurrence. They should follow up regularly in the future, and their cortisol should also be checked on time. They must not take it lightly.”

    “Don’t worry, Doctor Zeng!” Zhu Mingyue immediately put on a fierce look and tightly wrapped her arms around Qi Zhixuan’s neck, so hard that he begged for mercy. “If he dares to hold you back in the future, I will tie him up directly!”

    After getting into the car, Zhu Mingyue calmed down from her excitement. She held the steering wheel and drove for a while. Qi Zhixuan realized that it was not the direction home, and couldn’t help but wonder: “Where are we going?”

    “Go back to Mingyue. I have something to tell you.” Zhu Mingyue’s voice suddenly became serious, and Qi Zhixuan was slightly uneasy.

    “What on earth is going on?” In fact, Zhu Mingyue told him that something happened before, but she never elaborated on the phone.

    But Zhu Mingyue just said, “You’ll know when you get there,” and said no more. He lightly stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped towards the studio.

    When Mingyue returned, Zhu Mingyue led him into a conference room: “Wait here for a while.” After that, he turned and left.

    Qi Zhixuan sat on the chair boredly, doubts growing in his heart.

    Not long after, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and a man and a woman walked in, looking about the same age as him.

    “Teacher Little Painter! It’s really you!” The girl’s eyes lit up as soon as she entered the door, and she rushed to him excitedly, holding her mobile phone in her hand, “Can we take a photo together? I like your paintings so much!”

    Qi Zhixuan was confused. The person called him his account ID. He guessed that it might be a netizen who followed him, so he stood up politely and replied: “Hello.”

    “Hey, Mengmeng, don’t scare people.” When the boy who was traveling with him saw this, he quickly grabbed the girl and explained to the reserved Qi Zhixuan with a smile, “She is your fan, and she was so excited when she heard that she could see you.”

    Mengmeng pouted, but quickly took a photo with Qi Zhixuan before reluctantly sitting next to him.

    “Everyone is here.” Zhu Mingyue came in, her high heels hitting the ground with a crisp sound, and she sat directly on the main seat of the conference room.

    “Mr. Zhu, I believe you now. I didn’t expect Mr. Painter to be your junior brother.” The girl named Mengmeng held her head and looked at Qi Zhixuan curiously, her tone full of excitement.

    Zhu Mingyue said calmly: “You can give us that thing.”

    “Yes, yes, but…” The boy looked troubled.

    “Senior sister…what are you talking about?” Qi Zhixuan listened to them riddles, what is it?What does it have to do with him?

    “”Xiao Wang, come in.”Zhu Mingyue shouted towards the door, and assistant Xiao Wang immediately pushed the door open and entered, “You tell him clearly.”

    Assistant Xiao Wang was worthy of being Zhu Mingyue’s assistant, and he quickly explained the matter clearly.

    These two people are a couple. The man is Zhou Xuchao and the woman is Ai Yimeng. They are professional couple bloggers contracted by an Internet company and are also fans of Qi Zhixuan.

    They first paid attention to Qi Zhixuan because they saw a video of him showing his face taken by others at a comic exhibition and thought it looked familiar. Later, they were attracted by his painting skills, especially when they saw the pictures he drew for fans for free. The drawings were of extremely high quality and he didn’t take any money. Ai Yimeng, an old two-dimensional person, actively queued up numbers in the comment area to wait for the lottery.

    Later, after watching more, the two of them became more and more certain that they had met Qi Zhixuan. One time, they mentioned in the comment area that they had met Qi Zhixuan five or six years ago. As a result, they were ridiculed by others, saying that they were fooling bloggers because they liked to use relatives and friends everywhere, and asked them to provide evidence.

    They were so angry that they took a picture of Qi Zhixuan’s profile taken when they were out playing and posted it. They said in the comment section that the profile was not Qi Zhixuan’s. It was originally a trivial matter, but the other party had a venomous tongue and did not speak lightly or seriously. The two parties suddenly had a fierce quarrel. Zhu Mingyue loved patrolling under Qi Zhixuan’s account, and she immediately saw it.

    If others don’t know her, how can she not know him? Isn’t that Qi Zhixuan who is still in college, and he is still painting, and the painting is the work he completed!

    “So…you were the ones who photographed me in the mountain city back then?”Qi Zhixuan was shocked. He had told Zhu Mingyue about this before, but finding these two people was like looking for a needle in a haystack, and he had never placed any hope on it.

    “Yes, yes!”Ai Yimeng nodded vigorously, her tone full of grievance, “I told you that I had met you, but they insisted on me!Our number of fans is not much different, who cares?It really pisses me off!”

    “Okay, don’t be angry.”Zhou Xuchao comforted his girlfriend for a while, and then said to Qi Zhixuan, “Later, Mr. Zhu sent us a private message. We thought she was a liar, so she told you about you. We felt it was too catchy and still couldn’t believe it, so we asked to see you in person.”

    Zhu Mingyue could have bought the photos directly through their company, but she didn’t expect that in addition to the photos, the two of them also had a complete video, which was the entire process of Qi Zhixuan’s painting. They only used a few seconds of material when editing the video. The complete video has never been released, and the copyright is still in their hands.The credibility of a video is far greater than that of a photo, which is why Zhu Mingyue must bring Qi Zhixuan to see them.

    “None of us thought there could be such a shameless person in the world!Stealing other people’s works to create your graduation design!What a scumbag!”Ai Yimeng became angrier as she talked and couldn’t help but slap the table.

    “But don’t worry!We will definitely help you!”She immediately turned around and took Qi Zhixuan’s hand, her eyes full of love.

    “Ah…thank you, sorry for the trouble.Qi Zhixuan gently broke away his hand with some discomfort and smiled awkwardly.

    Zhou Xuchao took his girlfriend’s hand to stop her from messing around again, and said with an embarrassed look: “But… we have too much material. We have saved it on several hard drives, and some of them have passwords… We don’t remember them all. We can only go home and dig them all out and send them to you. You can find them yourself…”

    “Okay, you can all send it to me then, oh no, send it to him.”Zhu Mingyue thought for a while. There were many people in her studio talking, and a broomstick boss came recently. It was more convenient and safer to go to Qi Zhixuan’s place.

    Qi Zhixuan nodded and said, “Well, thank you. If you still remember the password, if it’s convenient…”

    “Convenient and convenient!Ai Yimeng immediately answered, “I will write to you everything I remember!”I can’t help it if I can’t remember it, I’m really sorry.”

    “Yeah, it’s okay. If there is really no password, I will find a way to find a qualified professional data service to crack it. It will not damage the contents inside.”Qi Zhixuan never thought that one day he would be able to find evidence. If there was a way to clear himself, and now he could paint by himself, then going back to school with a clean conscience and getting a diploma would no longer be just a dream.

    “Okay!Painting teacher!I hope you can kill the scumbag as soon as possible and regain your innocence!!”Zhou Xuchao didn’t hold anyone back, and Mengmeng grabbed his hand again.

    “Hehe…hehe…thank you, my surname is Qi, you can just call me Xiao Qi…” Qi Zhixuan quietly broke away again and moved to the side calmly.

    In order to thank the two for their help, Qi Zhixuan not only cooperated with them to take countless group photos, but also agreed to draw a couple portrait for them on the spot.

    “Okay, you guys have fun, call me when you get home and I’ll see you off.”Zhu Mingyue finished her business and had no time to communicate with their fans, so she told Qi Zhixuan to go and get busy.

    “No need, Senior Sister, I can just go back by myself.Qi Zhixuan was drawing lines with his iPad, “I want to take a stroll around here in a while.””He doesn’t know how long it will take yet, and he doesn’t want to disturb Zhu Mingyue’s work.

    Zhu Mingyue didn’t force it, nodded and left.

    “Teacher Xiao Qi!”Ai Yimeng asked curiously while taking a group photo, “Is the only empty account you follow in your account your trumpet?There’s nothing inside.”

    “No, that’s my boyfriend’s number.Qi Zhixuan explained without raising his head, “He doesn’t like to play on these social platforms. He just browses them casually.””

    Mengmeng was so shocked by his answer that her hand in the photo trembled, and the mouth in the photo went up to the sky.

    “Wha..what!It turns out you are…” She suddenly stopped mid-sentence and waved her hands quickly, “I didn’t mean that!I don’t discriminate!I’m super supportive!Best wishes to you!hey-hey.”Mengmeng gave her two thumbs up, and her mouth really went up to heaven.

    Qi Zhixuan was amused by her answer, shook his head slightly and continued painting.

    By the time he said goodbye to the couple, it was already noon. Qi Zhixuan was in a good mood. He had received good news today. His condition had improved, and he had found evidence that he had not thought of for many years. He planned to find a delicious restaurant nearby to celebrate, and then go to the mall to pick out a small gift and take it back to surprise Pang Whale.

    During lunch break, there was a long queue in front of the elevator.The bright moon was on the twenty-second floor, and it took a long time just to wait for the elevator. It was hard to get into an elevator that was overcrowded.

    Qi Zhixuan wore a lavender casual seahorse sweater today. Although it was soft and fluffy, it looked particularly out of place among the elite crowd of black, white and gray professional attire.He shrank uncomfortably into the corner of the elevator, trying to minimize his presence.

    On the first floor, the elevator door opened and people poured out. Qi Zhixuan was trapped in the middle and staggered a little. Just when he was about to fall, a pair of hands held his arm firmly.

    “Be careful.”A familiar yet unfamiliar voice sounded above the head.

    Qi Zhixuan subconsciously raised his head to say thank you, but the moment he saw the other person’s face clearly, the smile on his face froze instantly, and the air seemed to freeze at this moment.
