Chapter 141 The Patient Has Depression
On Monday, Xu Wanwan went to the hospital in the morning to see Xu Yuchu. The wound on his head had almost fully recovered, and he could be discharged after the stitches were removed.
After the nurse in the ward left, Xu Yuchu looked up at Xu Wanwan. “Sis, I don’t want to go back.”
Xu Wanwan pursed her lips and sighed in her heart.
She heard that the Xu family had come to visit Xu Yuchu during this period of time, but the young man had his own temperament, refusing all their visits.
“But if you don’t go home, where can you go?” Xu Wanwan said softly, “You still have to properly go to school now, and you’d need the support of your family.” “But, Sis, you didn’t go home either, did you?” Xu Wanwan was stunned. “I’m different from you.”
“How is it different?” Xu Yuchu’s voice was exceptionally calm, but there was a coldness in his eyes. “They can drive you out of the Xu family, and they can also drive me away.”
“It’s ironic just thinking about it. In their eyes, they only care about my grades and have never asked me if I’m doing well in school.”
Xu Yuchu endured it and said, “Even if I go back to that family, I won’t be happy.” Xu Wanwan frowned slightly. She wanted to continue persuading him, but there was a knock on the ward’s door.
A doctor in a white coat pushed the door open and walked in. “You’re the patient’s family member, right?”
“Yes, I am.”
“Come and help the patient with the discharge procedures.”
Xu Wanwan nodded and stood up to follow the doctor out.
After walking out of the ward, the doctor brought her to the psychological consultation room.
“Didn’t you say you were going through the discharge procedures? What is this?”
“Miss Xu, through our observations over the past few days, we found that your brother suffers from a very serious depression.” Xu Wanwan’s pupils instantly widened. “What?”
Xu Yuchu was only fifteen years old this year. At such a young age, he was supposed to enjoy the beauty of youth, how could he be ill?
“He was depressed these past few days and refused to eat, so our psychiatrist gave him a checkup.” The attending doctor handed her a checkup report, “Depression is a condition that happens to teenagers, so we must pay attention to it.”
Xu Wanwan’s hands trembled as she took the checkup report and looked at the diagnosis on it. “Major depression.”
She frowned. “Then how should we treat it?”
The psychiatrist adjusted his glasses and said solemnly, “Depression is a mental illness. The pain that he suffers is something that normal people can not understand, especially for someone with major depression like him. We need to take good care of him.” “Our current treatment suggestion is controlled medication, staying away from negative environments, and seeing a psychiatrist regularly.” After Xu Wanwan heard that, she was stunned for a few seconds. “Okay, I understand.”

After she thanked the doctor, she hid the examination report and returned to the ward uneasily.
Xu Yuchu was still lying quietly in the ward, but there was not a trace of hope in his eyes.
Xu Wanwan thought of how he said that he did not want to go home.
A trace of guilt flashed across her eyes. If she had known that he was suffering from depression, she definitely wouldn’t have persuaded him to go home.
Indeed, she could clearly understand this feeling of hopelessness, so why did she have to persuade him to go home?
Based on his current situation, even if he returned to the Xu family, he still wouldn’t be taken seriously. This would only aggravate his illness.
Xu Wanwan pursed her lips and thought quickly for a few seconds before suddenly making a decision. “I’ve just thought about what you said, and I think what you said makes a lot of sense.”
Xu Yuchu’s calm eyes finally revealed a hint of surprise.
“I’ll help you rent a house outside the school. You can stay there and study at ease. I’ll visit you regularly.”
Xu Wanwan said seriously, “Then about the rent, you don’t have to worry about it. I have some money on hand, and I can afford it.”
Xu Yuchu said in a daze, “Sis, what are you trying to say?”
Seeing him like this, Xu Wanwan felt even worse. “I said, you should indeed move out. I’ll help you.”

As soon as she said that, the coldness in Xu Yuchu’s eyes melted instantly.
He still felt a little incredulous.
When he told Xu Wanwan that he did not want to go home, he did not have any hope at all. He never thought that Xu Wanwan would actually agree to his request. “Sis, it’s better to forget it.”
The hope in Xu Yuchu’s eyes was quickly extinguished, and he said calmly, “I’ll only be troubling you.”
“How can that be?” Xu Wanwan’s tone was inexplicably firm. “As long as you are healthy and happy, then I will be very satisfied.”
The one thing that she did not get was family love.
So when she saw that Xu Yuchu was being ignored by the Xu family, she still wanted to help him.
Xu Yuchu did not seem to believe her. “Sis, is what you said true?”
“What’s there to lie about? I’ll help you pack up later, and we’ll go out and rent a house together.”
“But won’t Brother-in-Law be angry?”
Xu Wanwan was stunned, and then she pretended to be angry. “Have you forgotten what I told you last time?”
“Okay.” Xu Yuchu lowered his head again and muttered, “I just think that your relationship should be like this.”
“What did you say?”
“Nothing…” Xu Yuchu saw that she did not want to admit it, so he simply did not mention it again.
In the afternoon, after Xu Wanwan finished with the discharge procedures, she left the hospital with Xu Yuchu.
She had contacted an agency to look for apartments. She had looked at three apartments in total, and in the end, she chose the school district apartment closest to No. 1 High School.
The agency was ready to sign the contract with a smile when Xu Yuchu suddenly pulled Xu Wanwan aside.
“What’s wrong? Don’t you like it?”
“Sis, isn’t the rent a little too expensive?”Xu Yuchu lowered his voice. “Let’s go somewhere else.”
“It’s not expensive. This apartment has the best environment. It’s much more convenient for you to go to school in a few minutes.”
“But-“
Without waiting for Xu Yuchu to say anything else, Xu Wanwan gave him a look of affirmation and turned around to sign the contract with the agency.
The rent was charged on a one-for-three basis. After she paid the money, she brought Xu Yuchu out to buy some things. “Alright, I still have something to do later, so I won’t be here to accompany you.” Xu Wanwan raised her wrist to look at the time and said.
“Sis, aren’t you staying for dinner?”
“No, I’m going to the mall to buy something later. If you’re hungry, you can go out and eat first. You can buy some food later.”
Xu Yuchu didn’t say anything else and nodded. “Okay, take care on the road.”
After Xu Wanwan left, she took a taxi to a nearby mall.
The ceremony of apprenticeship was going to be held tomorrow, so she should dress formally no matter what.
Even if she didn’t like to buy clothes, she still had to pay attention to such occasions.
Xu Wanwan walked alone in the mall. She turned on her phone, looked at the balance in her bank card, and sighed.
Last month, she took on two missions and earned more than 200,000 yuan. With the money in her bank card, she still had around 300,000 yuan.
However, this amount of money was far from enough to give her a sense of security.
Xu Wanwan let out a sigh of relief. She did not want to overspend, so she simply found a shop that did not look very high-class.
