Chapter 786: Drinking This Bowl of Chicken Soup

Upon hearing this, Xiao Meng and Zhuang Qilin looked at him at the same time. Xiao Meng was very reserved and did not ask him where he was going. Zhuang Qilin thought of something and said, “Where are you going?” Usually, Zhuang Long would not specially remind him when he was going out.

Since he mentioned it so seriously today, he would definitely have to do something serious tomorrow.

As his son, Zhuang Qilin could not help but be concerned.

Meeting his mother and son’s concerned gazes, the hospital that was about to enter his mouth suddenly became, “A friend’s house.”

The two of them were relieved. Then, the two of them lowered their heads and continued eating. Zhuang Long’s heart was warm. This feeling of having someone worried about him when he went out was especially good.

The next morning, after Zhuang Long woke up, he ran out of the manor in his sportswear in high spirits and ran along the road. Before he finished his round, he saw Uncle Jimmy. The two of them met and ran side by side at a constant speed.

Uncle Jimmy said, “I saw your boy the afternoon before yesterday. He’s very good friends with our Parker.”

“Really?” Zhuang Long looked proud at the mention of his son. He said, “Our children love pets. Your Parker is very smart. It’s not surprising that they can become friends.”

“I can tell.”

Uncle Jimmy added, “I heard from Qilin that you went to California these two days?”

“Yeah.”

Uncle Jimmy did not continue to ask. He rarely asked about other people’s private matters. It was impolite.

However, Zhuang Long took the initiative to speak.

He said, “These few days have really been like a dream.”

Uncle Jimmy tilted his head and stared at Zhuang Long’s handsome side profile. He asked in a polite but not offensive tone, “Did something unexpected happen?”

“Yes.” Zhuang Long smiled sarcastically and said self-deprecatingly, “After living for more than thirty years, I finally knew that my biological mother was actually still alive. But it’s really strange. I clearly remember that my mother was already dead. In the end, when I received a call from the prison a few days ago and was informed to pick my mother up, I was really shocked.”

Uncle Jimmy looked a little surprised. “Your mother is still alive?”

“Yes, but she lived in prison.” Zhuang Long stopped and looked sideways at Uncle Jimmy. Thinking of Uncle Jimmy’s former profession, Zhuang Long found it ironic. His mother was a murderer, his neighbor was a police officer, and he was a mental patient.

“My mother is a murderer,” he said, as if he didn’t care.

Uncle Jimmy did not show any excessive shock. He only nodded calmly and persuaded Zhuang Long, “As long as you’re alive, it’s a good thing.”

“That’s true.”

Zhuang Long thought of this person’s profession and could not help but say, “Uncle Jimmy, you’ve never seen my mother. If you had, you would be shocked. My mother looks like a gentle and kind person. I’m afraid no one will believe that she’s a murderer.”

“Really, I can’t tell.”

Uncle Jimmy said, “People’s appearance is deceptive. Besides, just because someone killed someone doesn’t mean that she’s a bad person. Besides, no matter how weak a person is, they will resist when their most important thing is hurt.” Jimmy’s words seemed to mean something. Zhuang Long could tell, but he didn’t think much of it.

Zhuang Long carefully savored these words. After a while, he said, “Uncle Jimmy is indeed a police officer. He’s knowledgeable and his words make sense.” Zhuang Long decided to drink this bowl of chicken soup.

Jimmy didn’t reply.

Zhuang Long asked him again, “Uncle Jimmy, under what circumstances do you think a person will split into another personality?”

Jimmy narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhuang Long deeply. “Why are you asking such a question?” Jimmy observed Zhuang Long calmly, as if he was trying to tell if the person in front of him was Zhuang Long.

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Long casually found an excuse to brush Jimmy off. He said, “I’m more curious because this happened to a friend beside me. That friend usually looks quite cheerful. None of us expected him to have a hidden personality.”

Jimmy asked, “What kind of personality does that hidden personality have?”

Zhuang Long frowned and said, “Ruthless, dangerous, and uncontrollable.”

Jimmy thought for a moment before saying, “It’s not uncommon to have multiple personalities. Some people have split personalities inherited from their families, while others are formed after birth.”

“Formed the day after tomorrow?” Zhuang Long pondered this sentence before saying, “Usually, multiple personalities will form. Is it because of your childhood experience or something else?”

“Most of it was caused by my childhood.”

“I see…”

Zhuang Long pursed his lips and did not continue the topic with Jimmy. The two of them continued to jog around the road. When they were done, they parted at Jimmy’s door. When Jimmy turned around, he suddenly said to Zhuang Long, “Ah Long, no matter what your mother did or what her identity is, as long as she turns over a new leaf and still loves you, she will be a qualified mother.”

Zhuang Long was quite surprised.

However, Uncle Jimmy wanted to say more than that. He added, “Tell your friend that he’s not afraid of multiple personalities. As long as his heart is firm enough, split personality can be cured. Also, please tell him that he doesn’t have to worry about which personality is the original him. Whether it’s the kind and cheerful him or the ruthless and dangerous him, he’s still himself. His ruthless personality might be just a personality he created when he was desperate and afraid of despair.”

Jimmy’s deep and sharp eyes landed on Zhuang Long, as if he could see his soul and flesh clearly.

That gaze was like a huge mountain pressing down on Zhuang Long’s back. He was so suppressed that he could not breathe and could not walk. He could only stand at the same spot and accept Uncle Jimmy’s gaze. Under that gaze, Zhuang Long’s back broke out in sweat and he actually wanted to escape.

Uncle Jimmy finally looked away.

The mountain on Zhuang Long’s back disappeared instantly, and he felt much more relaxed.

Zhuang Long could not help but sigh.

Uncle Jimmy suddenly said, “If possible, which child is willing to become ruthless and cruel? Treat your friend well.” With that, Uncle Jimmy strode away and disappeared behind the door.

Zhuang Long stood at the same spot and did not leave for a long time.

If possible, who would be willing to become ruthless?

Uncle Jimmy said this as if he knew such a person himself.

Zhuang Long blinked his curled eyelashes and laughed at himself. He said, “If the other personality almost killed the person he loved the most, how do you want me to treat him well…” At the thought that he had almost killed Xiao Li, Zhuang Long wanted to cut off his hands.

Treat her well?

That was impossible.

After Zhuang Long ate breakfast, he went to see the neurologist Ji Yinbing introduced him to. That man was not only a neurologist, but also a psychiatrist.
