Chapter 24: The Psychology of Women
Miao Qingqing gritted her teeth as she glared at Song Xiaodong and said, "How many times do I have to tell you for you to believe me? Can’t you see with your own eyes that I’m not the kind of person who would get involved with you in ’that’ way?"
Song Xiaodong stared at Miao Qingqing and replied, "Looking at your personality, there is a kind of pride in your confidence, you indeed wouldn’t do anything out of line."
Miao Qingqing’s expression softened slightly, "At least you have some insight."
Song Xiaodong cracked a smile, "But some people, even though they seem cold and proud on the outside, keeping others at a distance, and no one can get close, might completely let go of a suppressed emotion inside them once they are in a totally unfamiliar environment, where nobody knows them. Moreover, this release is often much more intense and crazy than that of the average person."
Miao Qingqing’s gaze, which had just softened, sharpened again as she said, "Stop talking nonsense here."
"This isn’t nonsense. In psychology, it’s a very important explanation. The more extreme a person appears on the surface, the more intense the repressed opposing emotion they are hiding."
"You understand psychology?" Miao Qingqing scoffed disdainfully.
"I only have a superficial understanding of psychology, but I’ve studied women’s psychology very thoroughly."
"What do you study women’s psychology for? Don’t tell me it’s just for picking up girls."
Song Xiaodong chuckled, "You got it right."
