I raised stunning young ladies, but they all wanted to possess me.

"Don't be nervous."

"I know, Mr. Bai, you... like Miss Chen, don't you?"

Gu Yan's voice softened, becoming encouraging.

Bai Zikong's face flushed red instantly, his eyes showing a hint of panic, but he quickly regained his composure and took a deep breath: "Yes."

"But this time, it's for Ms. Chen's health. I understand what to do."

His gaze towards Gu Yan was filled with not only nervousness but also deep admiration.

Bai Zikong himself is also a psychological counselor, currently working in a special department of the government.

The name Gu Yan is legendary in their industry!

At the age of ten, he successfully intervened in the psychological breakdown of an S-class superhuman, achieving legendary status in one battle!

How could he not admire him?

In this world, the price that superhumans pay for using their abilities is that they are prone to losing control of their minds and collapsing.

Therefore, a legitimate team of superhumans will be equipped with at least one psychological counselor to provide emotional support and crisis intervention at any time.

In some dangerous and secretive places, there may be mental pollution or attacks, which is where the role of a psychological counselor becomes even more crucial.

I heard that the highest levels of government have long wanted to recruit Gu Yan and have offered unprecedentedly generous terms.

Unfortunately, Gu Yan valued freedom, and given that she had been bound to the Jinghailin and Pei families for six years, the authorities had no choice but to give up.

"Good that you understand."

Gu Yan patted his shoulder, a mischievous glint in her eyes, "Tomorrow, it'll all depend on your performance, the male lead."

Bai Zikong straightened his back, his eyes resolute: "Master Gu, rest assured, I will definitely perform well!"

Time quickly jumped to the next day.

Morning, at the Chen family's old house.

The sun was shining brightly. Chen Sinian personally pushed his daughter's wheelchair to see her off.

Cecilia Chen sat in a wheelchair, wearing a moon-white embroidered cheongsam that accentuated her slender figure.

Her long, silver hair was braided into an elegant plait and draped over her shoulders.

Her mixed-race features were exquisitely beautiful, and her icy blue eyes were calm, like a tranquil lake under the sunlight.

She sat there, looking like a meticulously crafted porcelain doll, almost unreal in her beauty.

"Lia, look, the weather is so nice today."

Chen Sinian pushed along while trying to find something to say.

"Um."

Cecilia responded softly. Her gaze swept over the flowers and plants in the courtyard, and she suddenly spoke, her voice very soft, "A little... looking forward to it."

"What are you expecting?"

Chen Sinian's heart tightened, but he asked casually.

Cecilia paused, then shook her head: "It's nothing."

The car was already waiting at the door.

The capable middle-aged head maid walked over and carefully and skillfully lifted Cecilia from her wheelchair into the back seat of the specially made extended limousine.

Chen Sinian watched his daughter sit down, closed the car door, and felt a little sweaty in his palms.

The Tianxi Auction House was now decorated in a luxurious and solemn manner.

In the lobby, Gu Yan ran around with a black megaphone, her voice almost hoarse from shouting.

"Lights! Over there! Yes! Dim them a bit more! We need that sophisticated feel!"

"Seats! Have the seats been checked? Don't put the name tags in the wrong places!"

"Waitress route! Rehearsal! Let's go through it one more time!"

Today he wore a perfectly tailored dark blue velvet suit with a plain black shirt underneath, no tie, and the collar slightly open.

Her pale skin, set against the dark clothing, possessed a fragile yet precious beauty.

Despite being incredibly busy, his calm and composed demeanor, as if he were in control of the entire scene, made many of the young ladies present unable to resist stealing glances at him.

Bai Zikong was also ready, dressed in a well-fitting dark gray suit, and quietly waited beside Minister Li Zhengguo.

Everyone was in place as planned.

Each person has a miniature invisible earpiece hidden in their ear, allowing them to receive Gu Yan's instructions at any time.

Gu Yan stood at the door of a luxurious private room on the second floor with the best view, surveying the orderly scene below, and took a deep breath.

"Miss Chen will be here soon! Final check! Don't mess it up!"

He whispered the order into the headset.

I feel... that's about right.

This time, everything should be foolproof.

……

The convoy arrived shortly afterward.

The car door opened, and the middle-aged head maid got out first, then carefully carried Cecilia out and placed her in the wheelchair that had been prepared in advance.

Chen Sinian followed beside him, wearing a polite smile, but his heart was pounding.

Cecilia settled in, and the head maid pushed her wheelchair slowly through the magnificent doors of the auction house.

As soon as she entered, she sensed that it was a bit noisy inside.

The buzzing of voices was deafening.

With her abilities, she easily caught a conversation between several young women gathered nearby:

"Hey, have you heard? That Gu Yan, she's an incredibly talented psychologist."

"Yes, I know. What's wrong?"

"I heard he was kicked out by the Lin and Pei families of Jinghai!"

"Huh? Really? Why?"

"What else could it be! I heard it's because... they made inappropriate advances towards the eldest daughter of the Lin family and that one from the Pei family! They've got some nerve!"

"My God! Really? Wasn't he quite famous before? I used to admire him a lot..."

"People always change in six years."

"You can know a person's face but not their heart; she looked gentle, but who knew she was such a lecherous devil!"

Cecilia's icy blue eyes twitched almost imperceptibly.

These words were naturally arranged by Gu Yan to be acted out, on her inevitable route, with the volume just enough for her to overhear.

purpose?

First, I'll create a scumbag persona for myself, so it'll be easier to play the villain later.

Meanwhile, in that luxurious private room on the second floor.

Gu Yan stood behind the one-way glass, looking down at Cecilia as she slowly entered.

The girl is beautiful; she truly deserves to be the female lead.

A seven-colored light quietly flowed deep within his pupils.

The Eyes of Emotion, activated.

The field of vision changed instantly.

He saw into Cecilia's inner world.

That was a...

A more broken and desolate ruin than the previous Pei Yuran and Lin Jinyu.

The ruins were covered with a thick layer of ash, and the place was deathly silent.

The extent of the damage was shocking.

However, right there in these desolate ruins, just moments before, those few words about his evil deeds drifted into Cecilia's ears—

A faint, yet exceptionally warm, golden halo, like a tender sprout that occasionally emerges from the frozen earth in the dead of winter, quietly lit up in a corner of that heart's ruins.

Gu Yan was stunned.

gold……

In emotional coloring, it usually represents joy and happiness.

What's going on?

Hearing about her own scumbag deeds... Cecilia actually felt pleasure?

What kind of brain circuit is this??

Before he could figure it out, Cecilia, in the wheelchair below, seemed to sense something and suddenly raised her head without warning.

Ice-blue eyes pierced through the crowd, looking straight and precisely in the direction of Gu Yan's private room on the second floor!

Even through the one-way glass, Gu Yan felt as if that gaze could penetrate everything and lock onto her instantly!

His heart skipped a beat, and almost instinctively, he immediately looked away, pretending to look elsewhere as if nothing had happened, but his heart was pounding wildly.

Damn it...

Is that all the sense you're getting?!
