Master Zhan, your daughter has gone out to catch ghosts again.

Chapter 269 Brother, are you and Jinxi talking about...?

[Huo Kongye, if I'm not mistaken, your younger brother should have autism. He looks about seven or eight years old now. He needs to start treatment as soon as possible, so as not to miss the best treatment stage.]

I'm taking psychology as an elective at school, and I've formed a counseling team with two senior students. If you trust us, please bring your younger brother to Tsinghua University to see me tomorrow.

Remember to contact me when you arrive, I'll come find you.

After reading the message, Huo Kong closed his eyes briefly, then casually tossed his phone aside.

He rested his hands behind his head, leaned back on the sofa, and slowly closed his eyes.

After an unknown amount of time, Huo Kong finally opened his eyes, picked up his phone, and replied with a single word: "Okay."

The following day, Huo Kong brought Huo Yan to Tsinghua University as promised. It was Monday, and many students were returning to school and queuing up to scan their faces to enter the campus.

Huo Kong looked at these people whose faces were brimming with the vitality that should be present at their age, and felt out of place and very uncomfortable. He lowered his eyes and seemed to be thinking about something.

"Brother." Huo Yan shook Huo Kongye's hand.

Some classmates looked over at them with puzzled expressions, but they could tell at a glance that this person was definitely not from their school and was probably someone involved in the underworld, with a strong rough and tough vibe.

"Xiao Yan, let's go back."

He was a force to be reckoned with in the organization and an undercover agent for a foreign intelligence agency, but in this scholarly place, he found it difficult to fit in and was even rejected.

Huo Yan was puzzled, but he still held Huo Kongye's hand tightly and stayed by his side, afraid of getting lost in the crowd.

"Huo Kongye!"

Just as Huo Kongye and Huo Yan were about to turn and leave, Zhan Jinxi's voice came.

Zhan Jinxi came out of the security room, followed by two boys.

"Didn't I tell you to contact me? Why didn't you contact me? If I hadn't come out in time, were you planning to leave?" Zhan Jinxi asked anxiously.

If I hadn't arrived in time, he probably would have already left.

Huo Kong also looked at Zhan Jinxi, his eyes cold and clear.

Zhan Jinxi suddenly realized that she didn't seem to have the right to speak to him in that tone. She wasn't his...girlfriend; they were just ordinary friends at most.

"Um... Let me introduce you. These are my two senior classmates, Lun Su and Yan Ke. They both majored in psychology and have made great achievements in the field. They can definitely develop a treatment plan suitable for your brother, but it will require the full cooperation of you, your family, and your brother."

"Hello."

Lunsu was a clean-cut young man with thin glasses and a scholarly air about him.

"Hello."

Yan Ke raised his chin slightly, feeling a great sense of superiority because of his achievements, so much so that his eyes showed a hint of disdain for Huo Kongye.

Huo Kong gave the other party a few seconds of silence, then finally extended his hand to greet them one by one, and then asked Huo Yan to try to communicate with the strangers other than him.

However, Huo Yan clung to Huo Kongye's leg timidly, frequently hiding behind him.

Lun Su and Yan Ke bent down and tried to communicate with Huo Yan, but Huo Yan was very resistant and kept trying to burrow between Huo Kongye's legs to hide himself.

"Wa ...

Huo Yan finally had nowhere to hide and burst into tears in fear.

Lun Su and Yan Ke immediately abandoned any direct communication with Huo Yan.

Huo Yan's crying wouldn't stop for at least an hour.

"Xiao Yan, look, this is my little pet. Do you know its name?"

Zhan Jinxi took off the pet backpack from his back, put it on the ground, and picked up a Maine Coon cat to attract Huo Yan's attention.

Although Maine Coon cats look majestic, Zhan Jinxi has raised them very well. They are gentle and kind, no less so than comfort dogs, and have a certain therapeutic effect.

"Meow..."

Huo Yan looked up and saw a cat standing in front of him. The Maine Coon stretched out its front paw, trying to shake hands with Huo Yan. Its round and large eyes were clear and bright, and it did not seem to have any aggression.

The owl instinctively and automatically blocks out the Maine Coon's appearance.

The boy blinked his big eyes and looked at it, but didn't dare to touch it; he had a strong sense of self-defense.

"Let's not stay outside, let's go inside," Lun Su said.

Zhan Jinxi and the others led Huo Kongye and Huo Yan into the campus, arrived at the experimental building, took the elevator, and arrived at a psychological counseling room on the eleventh floor.

In addition to some psychologists pursuing advanced studies, Tsinghua University also encourages students majoring in or taking psychology as an elective to open their own counseling rooms, which can help them get closer to the students who come for counseling.

Lun Su asked Huo Kong about Huo Yan's life, while Yan Ke took notes.

Zhan Jinxi was playing with Huo Yan with his Maine Coon cat, but he also occasionally listened to what they were saying.

Before we knew it, it was lunchtime.

Yan Ke had to have dinner with his girlfriend, who was two years younger than him, so he left first.

Zhan Jinxi brought Huo Kongye and Huo Yan to the cafeteria, and Lun Su followed along.

The group found a seat by the window and sat down.

Huo Kong was also picking out cilantro.

"You don't eat cilantro, give it to me, don't waste it," Zhan Jinxi said, handing over her bowl.

Zhan Jinxi's move shocked Lun Su.

What's going on? Why are they being so proactive? He instantly felt a sense of crisis, especially when he looked up and carefully examined Huo Kongye. He felt that he was bound to lose completely.

At the time, I was so busy asking questions that I didn't even notice what Huo Kongye looked like.

Now he finally understood why Zhan Jinxi was so determined to help him unconditionally.

Watching Zhan Jinxi eat cilantro so naturally, a thought exploded in Lun Su's mind: Could these two be a couple, the kind of secret relationship they don't want anyone to know about?

Otherwise, why would the two of them sitting together exude such a strong sense of chemistry, making it hard not to overthink things?

"Why are you looking at me? Eat." Zhan Jinxi noticed Lun Su's gaze and said irritably.

Lun Su hesitated, wanting to ask but not daring to. If it wasn't true, that would be fine, but if it was, she would be devastated and it would affect her treatment.

Not long after, Zhan Jinxi got up and went to the toilet.

Taking the opportunity, Lun Su asked Huo Kongye, "Hey brother, are you and Jin Xi...?"
