Chapter 710 Decision
"I can't guarantee that." Professor Bob took off his glasses and gently wiped the lenses with a silk handkerchief. "Miss Wen, memory recovery is not a simple switch."
He put on his glasses again, looking directly at Wen Liang with his gray-blue eyes. "It's more like an archaeological excavation, and it needs to be cleaned up carefully layer by layer. But don't worry, blood pressure and brain waves will be monitored before and after each treatment. Safety always comes first. Even if the memory cannot be restored, it will not affect your current life."
"This kind of hypnosis... can other ordinary psychiatrists do it?"
Professor Bob's expression suddenly became serious: "No, this requires extremely professional hypnosis techniques and psychological knowledge."
He added meaningfully, "There are no more than 20 people in the world who can achieve this level."
"Twenty..." Wen Liang repeated softly, and suddenly realized something, "Then do you... know these people? Is the person who made me lose my memory among them?"
Bob smiled and admired Wen Liang's sharpness. "I know some of them. Logically, it should be the case. Of course, it is not ruled out that there are unknown hypnotic geniuses, but the possibility is very small."
“How long will my treatment take?”
"Everyone's situation is different, so it depends on the specific circumstances. A conservative estimate is two to six months. The important thing is to create a safe environment and the patient's full cooperation," Professor Bob answered rigorously.
"If you'd like, we can do a simple relaxation test. It's not hypnosis, just to help you relax."
Wen Liang hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly.
Bob took out a delicate metal box, opened it gently, and took out a beautifully crafted pocket watch from the box. His voice was gentle and professional: "Please look at the dial and follow my guidance to relax and breathe..."
The pocket watch began to swing regularly, and Wen Liang's eyes followed it involuntarily.
Professor Bob’s voice was steady and reassuring: “Imagine you are standing by a peaceful lake…with a gentle breeze…”
Wen Liang felt his tense nerves gradually relax.
But she was a little anxious and tried to recall certain fragments, and the familiar headache came back.
"It's okay," Professor Bob immediately stopped the test and put away his pocket watch. "We will proceed step by step. I need to go back and study your situation and develop a professional psychological treatment plan."
He opened his notebook and wrote a few lines carefully: "I suggest starting with cognitive behavioral therapy, combined with some relaxation training. Memory recovery is a long process, and we can't rush it."
"If I start treatment, will I need to see you more often?"
Bob nodded and looked up at her. "Well, this is a key issue. Deep hypnosis treatment needs to be carried out in my studio, where there are special instruments. During the treatment, we need to meet once a week and adjust the treatment progress according to your condition. I will return to Philadelphia in a few days. In order to create a stable environment and conditions for treatment, I suggest that you also live in Philadelphia."
Huo Dongcheng couldn't help but ask, "What will be the impact if I return home halfway?"
Bob said, "It won't have a big impact, but it may prolong the recovery time."
Wen Liang: "Do you need hypnosis every week?"
"not necessarily."
Wen Liang: "I will consider Professor Bob's proposal."
It just so happened that she also had the idea of going to Philadelphia to investigate.
Bob: "If you are sure to choose me to treat you, after we sign the contract, you need to strictly follow the plan I set. I don't like disobedient patients."
"it is good."
Professor Bob nodded and reminded: "Miss Wen, please avoid drinking alcohol and taking sleeping pills before treatment. Maintaining a regular schedule will help memory recovery."
He handed over a business card and said, "This is my work number. It's on 24 hours a day. Please contact me when you have made a decision."
"Ah."
"During the treatment, you need to cooperate with some simple records and exercises."
Bob took out a booklet from his bag. "This is the Memory Recovery Guide I wrote. It contains detailed precautions and self-adjustment methods. Even if you don't choose treatment, you can still use the methods in it."
"Okay, thank you."
Wen Liang took the booklet and found that every page had neat annotations and marks.
The professor's rigorous professionalism made her feel at ease and she was not so afraid of the upcoming hypnosis treatment.
After saying goodbye to Professor Bob, Huo Dongcheng sent Wen Liang back to the hotel.
He asked, "Have you decided to treat it?"
Wen Liang nodded, "Well, there is still a long time to go. In order to avoid having crazy thoughts in the future, it is better to get treatment early."
"But you need to stay in Philadelphia for a long time, or at least travel to Philadelphia frequently. My niece is still young. Will Fu Zheng agree?" Huo Dongcheng raised his eyebrows.
Wen Liang imagined it.
She wants to stay in Philadelphia for so long, Fu Zheng may not agree.
Wen Liang opened the photo album on his phone and gently stroked An An's recent photos with his fingertips.
The little guy is chubby and grinning.
If I go to Philadelphia for treatment, it means missing out on every bit of An An's growth over the past few months.
If everything goes well, it would be fine. If not, when she comes back, maybe An An will simply call him dad.
As for taking the little guy with him, it is too dangerous. Wen Liang will not consider it, and Fu Zheng will not agree.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Huo Dongcheng continued, "If you can't bear to part with your niece, you can wait until she grows up before going for treatment. As for Mason... although someone deliberately caused him to have a car accident, and I don't know what their purpose is, he has suffered so much since he was a child, and he has become accustomed to it. It doesn't hurt to wait a little longer. Isn't it just some blood? An An is more important..."
Wen Liang frowned, "Brother Dongcheng, Mason is also your child, how can you say that? Mason has suffered too much, I don't want him to be hurt again, I must go for treatment."
She didn't know who was behind the accident, nor did she know their purpose in hitting Mason. Whether they needed Mason's blood was all her subconscious guesses. She only knew that there was something wrong with that hospital.
Fear comes from the unknown, so Wen Liang must find out what is going on.
Parting with An An was also a helpless act, but she didn't remember it now, and when Wen Liang came back, she could still cultivate a good relationship with An An.
Huo Dongcheng: "Okay. But...what if Fu Zheng disagrees?"
"I'll convince him."
"Okay then. I'll find a detective to work with you on the investigation, and I'll send someone to protect you."
Wen Liang was not polite, "Okay, thank you."
It was too late when Wen Liang returned to the hotel and he did not contact Fu Zheng.
When she got up the next day, she called Fu Zheng.
After the call was connected, the two exchanged a few brief greetings.
Fu Zheng was already in the company, flipping through the documents and asking, "Aren't you going to see a psychologist today?"
"Well..." Wen Liang responded, "But, I already saw one yesterday."
