Chapter 166: Chapter 165: She Felt It Was Necessary to Study This Course

Gu Jia Ning brought Amber home all the way.

On the way, she happened to meet some acquaintances. Everyone was quite surprised to see Gu Jia Ning with a military dog. Only after asking did they learn that this dog named Amber had retired, and Gu Jia Ning had adopted her.

Zhang Shuwan lived next door and came out immediately when she heard the commotion.

Looking at Amber in front of her, Zhang Shuwan’s eyes lit up. Clearly, she was also a dog lover. "I didn’t expect you to adopt a retired military dog, but it’s good this way. When Vice Commander Sheng goes on missions and is not at home, you’ll have company. And if you need to go out, having Amber with you is a bit safer." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Even though she could often accompany Gu Jia Ning, it was still different.

And besides, she was also a woman. Even if she could accompany Gu Jia Ning out, if anything happened, she wouldn’t be as capable as Jia Ning. Like the last time they ran into human traffickers, it was Jia Ning who dealt with them.

But a military dog is different. Although retired, it still has abilities, and this Amber is a decorated retired military dog.

"Yes, Brother Xi thought the same." Gu Jia Ning replied.

In fact, Zhang Shuwan also likes dogs and was tempted to adopt one, but she dismissed the idea as soon as it arose.

She couldn’t afford it. Even raising a dog requires food and drink.

And soon, there would be two children coming to her home, all relying on Lin Xing’s salary. The whole family feared there wouldn’t be enough to eat.

Actually, Zhang Shuwan wanted to work. It was too hard for the family to rely solely on Lin Xing’s income.

But Zhang Shuwan felt it was unlikely.

Now, as her pregnancy advanced, with Guoguo to look after at home, going to work wasn’t realistic.

After the baby was born, with two little ones to care for, it would be even harder to get away.

As for her mother-in-law helping out? Forget it.

At this time, Zhang Shuwan couldn’t help but think of her parents. If only they were still around...

A trace of sadness crossed Zhang Shuwan’s eyes, but she masked it quickly.

After Zhang Shuwan left, Gu Jia Ning used the scanner in her eyes to scan Amber.

However, the scan results made Gu Jia Ning frown slightly.

It showed Amber’s pregnancy status, but nothing else displayed.

According to usual display from this scanner, if nothing shows, it usually means there are no other issues.

But based on what Xiao Duo said, Gu Jia Ning thought Amber might have PTSD.

Gu Jia Ning immediately used her mind to open the original binding for Amber, and soon saw that it indeed showed Amber had PTSD.

Gu Jia Ning was stunned. She had always thought the scan results from the eye scanner and the results from the Divine Doctor Space binding were the same.

But now it seemed, they were different.

The eye scanner wasn’t comprehensive; it could only scan for physical ailments, not psychological ones.

But the Divine Doctor Space could.

Gu Jia Ning petted Amber’s fur and looked at the Space’s courses on treating PTSD. Being reborn, she knew what it was.

She felt she needed to learn this course.

Not just to treat Amber’s psychological problems; in this era, few doctors were aware of PTSD as a psychological disorder—almost none.

Yet in her military district, soldiers were most likely to suffer from PTSD.

Even if someone showed these symptoms, people would just consider them crazy, without realizing it was a psychological ailment that could be treated.

Just now, Xiao Duo didn’t know why Amber was showing those abnormal reactions.

And this condition, if not severe, might be okay. But once it became serious, a person could go mad, become mentally disturbed, and even exhibit self-harm or suicidal tendencies.

Gu Jia Ning felt she should learn this course, not just to help treat Amber, but to help treat soldiers with PTSD.

They protect the country and should not end up like that.

At noon, when Sheng Zexi returned, he saw Amber at home.

Gu Jia Ning explained to him about adopting Amber and mentioned her PTSD.

After listening, Sheng Zexi was stunned for a moment, then urgently confirmed with Gu Jia Ning, "Are you serious? This is just a psychological disorder called post-traumatic stress and can be treated?"

"Of course it can!"

"Then Ningning, can you treat it?"

Gu Jia Ning hesitated, "I think I can."

As long as she studied in the Divine Doctor Space, she would certainly be able to treat it.

According to how the Divine Doctor Space usually works, once she went in to study, she would have to master the entire PTSD treatment course and pass the assessment before coming out.

"What’s wrong? Do you have a comrade suffering from this?" Gu Jia Ning asked.

Sheng Zexi nodded, and then his gaze turned distant as he began to tell Gu Jia Ning.

Back then, as a teenager, Sheng Zexi fell out with his father because he married a stepmother who was deceitful and malicious.

He planned to leave Beijing and go far away to join the military.

But because others had received word from Sheng Xinhao, no one was willing to help him.

"...In the end, it was Zhen Rong who helped me."

Zhen Rong, Hua Zhenrong, was Sheng Zexi’s good friend from childhood. Even though later, because of his stepmother, he did not have good relations with his family, and his stepmother spread many rumors about him, causing everyone to avoid him.

But Hua Zhenrong trusted him.

So, when Hua Zhenrong learned that he planned to join the military, he beseeched his father.

"In Zhen Rong’s family, there were three brothers. The eldest was a doctor, the second a journalist."

"Uncle Hua hoped Zhen Rong would join the military, hoping at least one of his three sons would follow in his footsteps. But Zhen Rong wasn’t very interested; he said he had no great ambitions. The family lacked nothing in food and drink, so he just wanted to live leisurely, write articles occasionally, read newspapers, and tend to flowers—that was his ideal life."

Gu Jia Ning: Goodness, at such a young age he already aspired to be a slacker and live like a retired old man.

Honestly, she kind of envied it too.

If one could live leisurely, who would want to be a workhorse or a corporate drone?

But since Hua Zhenrong’s ambitions were like this, how did he end up with PTSD?

Gu Jia Ning had a vague suspicion in her heart.

Soon, Sheng Zexi continued, "To help me, Zhen Rong asked Uncle Hua..."

"In the end, Uncle Hua gave him a condition: either he wouldn’t agree, or Zhen Rong would have to go with me."

So that was how it was.

The rest was almost predictable.

For his good brother and friend Sheng Zexi, even though he wasn’t very interested in joining the military, Hua Zhenrong agreed in the end.

So, the two of them went to the Northwest Military Region together.
