Don't Lie to Your Therapist—She Already Knows Your Fate
Chapter 74 - 72: Your Parents Are Not Your Parents
[Stream, let me break this down! His whole purpose for calling in today was to ruin his girlfriend’s reputation, get himself trending, and set himself up to be an influencer and rake in cash! That’s why he had his parents follow his script to manipulate the stream! He was playing on everyone’s sympathy, but Doctor Wen saw right through him, didn’t she?]
[I dub the person above a master detective!]
[The scumbag’s plan backfired. Seeing him get all flustered and try to argue his way out of this is just... so... satisfying!]
[He was trying to paint himself as a filial son, but that blew up in his face too! I’m dying! HAHAHAHA!]
[I’m officially nominating this guy for Most Disgusting Man of the Year. No competition.]
"You—"
"Patient, let go of your hatred. You deserve to join the noble ranks of the single. Trust me, as a doctor, I am truly saying this for your own good. Psychological problems can easily lead to behavioral ones, setting you down an irreversible path that everyone despises. And stop having your father send messages to your ex-girlfriend. Your actions constitute harassment and verbal abuse. Calling it immoral is putting it lightly; you’re interfering with another patient’s psychological therapy."
"You damn hussy! How dare you say that about my son! You’re just a home-wrecking seductress! Seducing so many people! I’m going to have the police arrest you! I’m telling you, you little vixen, my godson is a cop around here! I’ll have him arrest you right now!" A sharp-tongued old woman stormed onto the screen.
Judging by her bone structure, she was probably quite attractive in her youth. But a lifetime of bitterness and acrimony had twisted her life, taken its toll on her body, and sculpted the face she wore today.
So, there really is something to the idea of performing good deeds to accumulate good karma.
[The apple really doesn’t fall far from the tree! I used to think you shouldn’t drag parents into arguments, but now that I’ve seen this family’s true colors, I feel like just cursing them out is letting them off easy!]
[The son is decent-looking, so why is his mom so ugly? No offense, just an objective aesthetic observation, not a personal attack. I just remembered what Doctor Wen said... that this guy won’t have parents for much longer?]
[To the commenter above! I was thinking the same thing! What if he’s not really their kid? But honestly, I’d rather he was. Keep this whole disgusting family locked together! Don’t let them go out and ruin anyone else!]
"I don’t engage in personal attacks. The patient is, in fact, not this family’s biological son. Strictly speaking, he was bought from another family for five hundred yuan. They were unable to conceive, so they schemed to buy a child. But what ordinary family would willingly sell their own? As it turned out, an opportunity presented itself. There was a family, not so poor they couldn’t afford one more child, but they were facing a terminal illness—the kind that forces you to bankrupt yourself to pay for an elder’s medical treatment. Unbeknownst to the mother, her child was sold."
[How utterly heartless! Do people with no conscience actually exist in this world? It’s so tragic being a woman sometimes! You can’t even protect your own child!]
[If you ask me, it’s a good thing he was sold. If she’d raised him only to find out he’d turn into *this*, it would’ve been better to strangle him in the cradle!]
[That’s too extreme! When children are young, they’re just a blank slate! The person he became is entirely a result of how this family raised him! They’re the ones who ruined him!]
[I just want to know, did the mother never find her child after all these years? Did it all just end like that?]
"The Heavenly Dao is imperfect. After a fruitless search for her child, that mother divorced her husband. But despite being a kind soul her entire life, she too contracted a terminal illness and has since passed away."
He stood frozen on screen for the whole world to see. He had no idea he wasn’t his parents’ biological son.
’Ever since I could remember, Mom told me how hard they worked to give birth to me, raise me, and put me through school until I became successful. Everything they did was for me! I was their entire world, so I had to repay them. I was rebellious and didn’t always listen, but I never once considered abandoning them in their old age.’
Hearing this, he instinctively turned to look at his mother.
"If the patient doesn’t believe me, he can get a DNA test. Of course, they will absolutely refuse to get tested with him."
"Son! Don’t listen to this vixen’s nonsense! Can’t you feel the love your father and I have for you? Growing up, we gave you everything you ever wanted! Even when we were broke, we made sure you had money to spend. Your father and I are the two people in this world who love you the most! We put you through school, through university, and now you have a good job. Is there a single neighbor who isn’t jealous of our family? They’re just envious! That’s why they want to ruin us!"
"Of course, Patient, you might not want to get tested either. After all, what kind of person do you think a father who would sell you could be? He’s probably no better than your current parents. Why bring that humiliation upon yourself?"
"Streamer! If you pay for the DNA test, I’ll go get it done!" Zhang Jiasu said through gritted teeth.
[PFFT! I’m dying! People with no morals really know how to keep lowering the bar!]
[He doesn’t even care if he’s their biological son or not, and his first thought is to try and extort money from Doctor Wen? Tsk, tsk. He must think we’re all idiots!]
[How did someone with this IQ even get into college? I guess it’s true what they say: you can’t judge a book by its cover, and you can’t measure the depths of stupidity!]
"Whoa, hold on! Your parents are still alive. I’m not about to be your new dad, and I certainly don’t want a moron for a son! Why should I be the one to pay for it?!"
[HAHAHA! Today’s the day Doctor Wen is forced to be a dad!]
[Doctor Wen: ’Don’t try to pin this on me! Having a son like him would be an insult!’]
"You!"
"Don’t be angry. You should sit down and have a calm discussion with your parents. After all, you might not have the chance for much longer. Let me make a prediction... In less than ten minutes, your house is going to descend into chaos."
How could Zhang Jiasu possibly believe Wen Ying? ’In our family, they listen to me on all the big things!’
’It’s only the small household matters that I let my parents handle.’
’There’s no way things will get chaotic! This is the perfect opportunity to expose this influencer for the fraud she is.’
You might be wondering why Zhang Jiasu wasn’t questioning how a complete stranger could possibly know the details of his birth. Wasn’t that a bit illogical?
It just goes to show that when a person is enraged, their reasoning and IQ take a nosedive.
"Fine! Since all of you believe this influencer so much, then let me expose her true colors! You said ten minutes? Then we’ll wait right here for ten minutes!" Zhang Jiasu declared, vowing to turn the tables.
[Zhang Jiasu! Your boss just posted! He said if you can actually expose Doctor Wen, you can have your job back. Otherwise, pack your bags and get out!]
[What a waste of a nice name!]
[From now on, I won’t even be able to look at the name ’Jiasu’ the same way again! Am I developing psychological issues too? Is there a cure that doesn’t involve Doctor Wen?!]
Faced with the stream’s ridicule, Zhang Jiasu was clearly unfazed.
When a man has no morals, can you really expect him to have any shame?
