Don't Lie to Your Therapist—She Already Knows Your Fate
Chapter 49: My 40-Meter Blade, and I’ll Let You Run 39 Meters First
[Sounds like there’s a story here. For her to have that kind of expression... were all our previous guesses wrong?]
[Hey, person above! A little self-awareness, please! It wasn’t *your* guess, it was Doctor Wen’s deduction as a psychologist! So, his deduction was wrong?]
[Come on, do something! What are you doing just spacing out?]
[Everyone, look behind the streamer! There’s a hottie!]
[I’ve got a bad feeling about this! Don’t tell me this hottie is the one? And those two are his biological parents? Look at that ingratiating expression... No, wait, he’s angry now. He looks angry?]
[The person above could star in their own one-man show. Rooting for your debut! Hey, streamer, can you get a little closer? We want to hear!]
The girl was also reading the bullet comments. At this point, she was completely at a loss and didn’t know what to do. Gritting her teeth, she moved closer to the seats in front of her, but the back of the sofa between them was a bit too high.
So, they couldn’t see her.
"Son, I’m so relieved that you understand! We’re your real family. That other family has their own biological daughter; there’s no way they’ll leave their fortune to you! No matter how well they treat you, it’s all a facade!"
"Your mother is right. We lost you back then for reasons beyond our control. We searched for you for so long and couldn’t find you, so you can’t blame us! Your older brother is having a really tough time right now. Your sister-in-law wants to buy a car, and your brother just doesn’t have the money! Look, now that you’ve accepted us as your family, why don’t you help your brother out?"
"Your dad is right. We’re all one family. You can’t just stand by and watch your brother’s family fall apart, can you? You’re a big boss now, so taking out this little bit of money should be easy, right? Your dad and I have already asked around; you call the shots in this company. You just need to come up with some excuse to spend the money. Or you could just say you want to get a new car. Your nephew was going to come today to say how much he misses you, but he has school, so your dad and I told him not to. Your brother said that from now on, when you visit, they’ll have a room prepared just for you!"
"Mom, Dad, doesn’t my brother have a two-bedroom apartment?"
"Exactly, which means there’s no room for your father and me! And the teacher said their son needs his own room now that he’s older. But your brother and sister-in-law are so thoughtful; they truly see you as one of the family. Your sister-in-law even went to look at a three-bedroom apartment that costs 1.2 million! Where would we get that kind of money? She said maybe they should forget about the car and just get this bigger apartment instead, so our whole family can finally be together!"
[Holy shit! What a piece of work! So do they want the car first or the house? It’s just one scheme after another, huh?] 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
[The person above is thinking too small! The guy is loaded. If spending a little money lets his biological parents and his brother’s family live a happy, harmonious life, shouldn’t he spend it? It’s not like it’ll break the bank, right? It’s only sucking him dry, after all!]
[My forty-meter broadsword was about to strike! Damn, dude above, you’re good! Almost made me attack a friendly!]
"Son, your annual salary is a few million, right? You must have saved up a lot over the years. Why don’t you just take a little out to get your brother a new apartment, and then Mom and Dad can make you delicious food at home!"
[Just a minute ago they wanted him to use company funds, and now they’re after his savings? Tsk, tsk, tsk. Vampires!]
"Mom, Dad, don’t worry. I do have money—I can pull out one or two million anytime. I don’t really have many expenses. My adoptive parents are very good to me; the food I eat, the clothes I wear, the house I live in, and the car I drive were all provided for me by their family. So, I can afford this. You are my biological parents, after all."
