Chapter 215 Empathy
"Xiao Wan, don't scare me, don't let anything happen to you!" Jiang Ma shook Jiang Wan's arm, and Jiang Nai kept calling her name, trying to get her to talk.
Father Jiang pulled Liu Hongjin to inquire about the situation, "What on earth is going on? So many of you went together, how did Xiao Wan become like this?"
Liu Hongjin recounted the whole process and sighed, "I'm afraid this incident will have a big impact on her. Jiang Wan is a good girl. Please enlighten her."
Father Jiang suppressed his heartache. He knew his daughter best, "This child has been kind-hearted since he was a child. When he was five or six years old, he followed me to pick vegetables in the vegetable garden. Because the weather was too hot, a lot of them were sunburned to death.
The ants were so black. When she saw them, she squatted there and cried, crying so hard that she was out of breath. Later I asked her what was wrong? She said those little ants were so pitiful. She watched them being heated to death.
I cried with heartache and sadness.
When she was in the sixth grade of elementary school, there was an essay in Chinese class that asked her to write "My Family's Pet". She just wrote two sentences and fell on the table crying. She couldn't breathe and scared the teacher so much that she called us here.
When the school visited her, the teacher realized that she missed her puppy. She used to have a beautiful little white pug at home. When she was in elementary school, the puppy would pick her up at the intersection, and then she would hug her.
Take the puppy home.
Unfortunately, one summer later, she was bathing the puppy in the river. She held the puppy's feet to rinse it. She might have caught a cold on her head. We don't know. Then she had a fever and died. She always thought that she was responsible for the death of the puppy.
It was a puppy. Every time I thought about it, I would blame myself and cry. Later, we hid all the photos of the puppy and no one dared to mention it. This was better.
Her empathy is so strong that she can always sympathize deeply with the sufferings of others, and then feel sad and sad for them. A bunch of ants or a puppy can break through her psychological defenses and make her cry in distress.
What's more, these are 5,000 lives. With such a weight of life, if all her empathy were directed towards me, I'm afraid it would crush her."
Hearing this, Liu Hongjin's heart twitched fiercely, "I always thought she was a tough and confident girl, a child with strong ability to withstand stress. I didn't expect that she has such a fragile side."
Father Jiang choked up his voice, "She can solve any problem rationally, but not this matter. If such a tragedy was not because of her, maybe she would be sad for a while and then pass. There are so many things in the world, and no one can
Can't control it,
But if this incident happened because of her, her emotions would be amplified countless times and she would always fall into self-blame. Many times, I hope she will be more cruel and not too kind."
"How about I find a psychiatrist to come over and give her guidance?" Liu Hongjin said worriedly.
Jiang Wan still holds the planting technology in her hands. She is too important to the country to let anything happen to her.
Dad Jiang's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, "She should be fine. She is a tough child and will not be crushed by such a thing. She will just be sad for a while."
"Then find someone who understands psychology to come and have a chat with her. It will help her to some extent. Otherwise, it would be very uncomfortable for me to see her like this." Liu Hongjin was also worried about Jiang Wan, even if she could recover on her own.
, it would be good for someone to enlighten and comfort her.
"Okay, I'm sorry to bother you." Father Jiang stopped trying to evade.
After sending Liu Hongjin away, Jiang's father entered the house and saw that Jiang Wan had come out of the bathroom. All the blood on her body had been wiped away, but how should she wipe away the blood in her heart?
"Xiao Wan?" Jiang Ma walked beside her nervously and called her tentatively.
"I'm fine!" Jiang Wan forced out an ugly smile to reassure them, then went directly into the bedroom and locked herself up.
Mother Jiang did not dare to disturb her anymore, and asked Father Jiang anxiously, "What should I do? What should I do with our daughter like this? The more she says it's okay, the more worried I am."
"Don't worry, don't worry, you have to believe in our daughter. When her pet dog died, she cried every day to death. She will get better after a while. After all, if something like this happened, no one would be able to do it right away.
They are jumping around like nothing happened." Father Jiang comforted Mother Jiang and Nai Jiang.
Jiang Wan returned to the room and squatted on the bed in a daze. She could never forget the scene in the Shengshi Building. It replayed in her mind over and over again, reminding her of this tragedy all the time.
When she saw so many corpses in the cave of Ye Boar Mountain, she was not as suffocated as she is now. She was used to life and death in her previous life. She would always tell herself that in the face of natural disasters, things are unpredictable, and she still doesn't know what her future will be like.
Well, I don’t have time to feel sorry for others.
She suppressed her inner emotions, hardened her heart, and became indifferent. Only in this way would she not feel sad for the world all the time.
But this incident activated all the suppressed emotions in her heart and burst out all at once. Because she lost five thousand lives, there was no way she could pretend it never happened.
She is a person who feels distressed when she sees a lame stray cat. Her strong empathy and sense of responsibility are her strengths and weaknesses. These are a person's nature, a quality she is born with, and there is no way to turn it off.
I can only bear it silently.
"Hey!" A sigh sounded in Jiang Wan's heart, and Tang Xiyuan said helplessly, "We have been together for more than a year. For more than a year, I have watched you plan, collect specimens, work hard to survive, and do everything.
You are clean and tidy, and you are decisive in handling problems. I thought you were a strong woman, but I didn't expect that your weakness is here."
Jiang Wan's voice was low, "No one is perfect. I am a human being. I have a heart. Of course I will have weaknesses. If I don't have empathy and responsibility, what's the difference between me and the people in the Madmen Alliance?"
"That's right. The stronger a person's ability, the greater the responsibility. If you want to take your family across classes, you want to study planting and help more people eat. If it really goes as you wish, such things will definitely happen from time to time.
If it happens, what should you do? Can’t you stand feeling like this all the time?
If you hold a batch of food in your hand, and on one side are soldiers waiting for rescue, and on the other side are victims waiting for food to survive, and you can only save people on one side, but the other side will die, what should you do? Don't you also
Do you feel bad for the one who died? Just because you didn't choose to give them food?
It is a good thing to have empathy, but you must also learn to control your empathy, use reason to suppress your nature, slowly rein it in, and don't let it affect your mood and decisions."
"I know, I just need time to digest it." How could Jiang Wan not understand these truths.
