Chapter 872: A Devil Lurks in My Heart

in our hands, and he still needs to have the ability to take it away."Then he looked at the unconscious Xiao Baicheng: "Mr. Li, Elder Jiu is so badly injured, what should we do""It's simple, leave it..."You go ahead and hit it, I'm going to take a break first."

Ye Bufan returned to the back, sat down on the lounge chair, and took a sip of his drink.

Su Ru Yue was practicing tennis alone, once, twice, three times.

After several consecutive rounds, Ye Bufan praised: "These punches are not bad, you've made progress."

Su Ruyu stopped and looked back at him, saying: "I'm not stupid."

This sentence seems to express dissatisfaction, but when she came back again, her posture was not quite right.

Ye Bufan stood up and, without any politeness, slapped her again. Then, he hugged her in his arms, gripping the golf club with both hands: "With this level of skill, you dare say you're not stupid I'll teach you one last time."

His tone seemed resigned, like a teacher who's been exasperated by a student.

Two people swung their clubs again. With a "pa" sound, the ball flew out about 400 meters this time.

"Well, that's all for now. I'm going to go."

Ye Bufan said, then let go of Su Ruyue.

"Doctor Ye, where are you going Aren't you here to treat my illness"

"Do you know what's causing your illness" Ye Bufan asked.

I don't know, I'm not a doctor.

"The root of your illness is that your nature has been suppressed too harshly, which is why you experience depression."

Su Ru Yue said: "Can you make that clearer"

For example, when I just disciplined those two guys who were with Jin Zhao, didn't you feel especially excited Didn't you feel particularly happy Didn't you also want to rush up and give them a few slaps

Su Ruyu bit her lip, but ultimately nodded silently.

She truly thought so, and for a long time, the scene of Ye Bufan punching Jin Zhao kept appearing in her mind.

"Doctor Ye, do I have a tendency towards violence"

This is not a propensity for violence, but a desire to release one's true self.

Because those two are such jerks, that's why you have the desire to beat them up. If it were an ordinary person, you wouldn't think like this.

Su Ru Yue thought about it, and it was indeed like that.

Ye Bufan continued, “But the education you received and your nature are completely different. You are required to always put on a ladylike facade, even if you are unhappy inside, you cannot vent it.”

For example, there was Xi Men Yu Liang before, a scum who almost ruined your life.

Even in such an extreme case of anger, you only slapped him once and even afterwards felt a bit out of control.

Su Ruyu didn't speak, she just savored it carefully.

"Earlier, when we were playing ball, I called you stupid and said you had a low IQ. Normally, you would have enough resources to refute me. You've achieved things that most normal people couldn't even dream of in several lifetimes."

But you haven't. You just suppress your true nature, trying hard to do better, trying to prove yourself with facts!

While this is not wrong, it also shows from another angle that you have suppressed yourself and made it a habit, an unconscious behavior. This makes your true nature very uncomfortable.

Ye Bufan continued, “Precisely because you are so outstanding, you bear the halo of envy from countless people, and this halo has become a shackle that binds you.”

For example, if I just spanked you, what would a normal woman's reaction be

I don't know.

Su Ru Yue lowered her head, her voice very soft, like a child who had done something wrong.

A normal woman, if she hated me, would vent her feelings directly, accusing me outright, maybe even calling the police.

If you like me, you would also show it, instead of silently enduring like this.

Because of your strict upbringing, you don't know how to cope, whether it's through resistance or compliance, for fear that it might affect your image in others' eyes.

"How is it Am I right"

"Hmm!"

Su Ru Yue nodded, feeling Ye Bufan had already seen through her heart completely. Even some things she hadn't seen clearly herself, he had spoken plainly about them.

In a nutshell, there's a devil and a beast lurking in your heart, but the halo around you and the education you've received keep it chained and unable to be released, ultimately leading to your illness.

"Doctor Ye, what should I do"

"It's simple, release the devil, even just once, and the inner pressure will be completely eliminated, suppressing your heart disease from the root."

Su Ru Yue fell silent for a moment, then whispered weakly, “But I’m afraid.”

In the eyes of the world, she is the president of Su Group, a highly accomplished woman in all aspects.

She is truly exceptional, almost flawless in every way. Her beauty, her family background, her abilities, her manners, and every single thing she does are impeccable. There is absolutely nothing to criticize about her.

But towards home, towards parents, and especially towards his mother Bai Ruili, he was very afraid.

Generally speaking, this kind of fear is common in large families, but it should normally have a limit.

While Su Ru Yue was completely different. She had been indoctrinated too heavily from a young age, which ultimately formed her current people-pleasing personality.

If they were ordinary noble children, if they did something wrong, they would only want to avoid being discovered. Even if they were found out, they would just apologize and admit their mistake.

While at Su Ru Yue's place, it became a situation where she absolutely couldn't allow herself to make mistakes, nor could she permit even the slightest flaw in her creations.

She usually thinks this way because she's afraid of disappointing the people around her.

At the company, she fears not performing well enough and disappointing the shareholders. At home, she fears making any mistakes and disappointing her parents.

The reason for such immense mental pressure is that she is incredibly talented, so much so that no one is allowed to have even the slightest flaw, including herself.

"That's your problem, I can only help you so much."

"Ye Bufan said, "What I just did to you, I have already reported to Madam. I believe she will be here in a few minutes."

"Ah!"

Su Ruyu only then realized this, a flicker of panic crossing her face.

"You have two choices now. The first is to stay here and apologize to your mother, continue being her good daughter, continue being the perfect woman you think she wants, and wait for your condition to worsen until it destroys you."

"I don't want this." Su Ruyue said nervously, "What about another option"

Another option is to break free from the constraints others place upon you, unleashing the devil within. Once you take that step, there's no going back.

What should we do

"It's simple, just run away with me from here."

Ye Bufan wore a sly smile, like a bad uncle tricking a little girl into doing something naughty.

Su Ruyu's eyes flashed a hint of complexity: "Actually, if it was to cure my illness and I told my mother, she would agree to let us go out."

"To say you're stupid is an understatement," Ye Bufan said angrily, "We ran out not for the sake of running away, but to break free from your mother's control. What's the point of asking her permission if we were going to do it anyway"

"...but..."

As soon as Su Ruyu thought about sneaking out with a man, her heart tightened. This was completely against the upbringing she had received since childhood.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else! is indeed the case. Given Xuan Yuan Zhan Tian's love for his daughter, it would be impossible for him not to pass down this kind of sorcery.Moreover, Fang Hua's wife has already attained the state of...
