Don't Lie to Your Therapist—She Already Knows Your Fate

Chapter 379: Chapter 332: Chaochao

Gentle stumbled, falling backward.

The wound on her forehead was obvious, but it garnered no sympathy from the Huaguo woman. Gentle couldn’t understand why.

’But this woman had clearly asked if I was willing to go with her!’

’How could she go back on her word so soon?’

Gentle was indignant. ’How could this woman just break her promise like that?!’

Perhaps what she truly couldn’t accept was the knowledge that she was finished, that she was going to die in this godforsaken place.

’Why do the heavens enjoy tormenting a wretched soul like me?’

’Why, why, why!’

’I refuse to accept this!’

’I was so close to being saved!’

Gentle gritted her teeth and stared at Wen Ying again. "Doctor Wen, if you don’t take me with you, I’ll kill myself right here, right now."

Her eyes, fixed on Wen Ying, were resolute. It seemed this time she meant what she said.

Smith watched the scene with interest. To him, this woman was nothing more than a plaything, like a kitten or a puppy, but now it seemed his little toy wanted to put on a show.

And he was more than happy to watch.

After all, he’d heard many, many rumors about the Huaguo people, though he never knew if they were true.

Seeing for himself now, through this Huaguo woman, was a decent enough prospect.

Wen Ying seemed not to have heard Gentle. She looked at Smith. "Then it’s settled. When I come out of the third floor, you’ll need to keep your promise."

"Of course. By then, perhaps we’ll be friends."

Smith clearly didn’t understand the meaning of the word "friend," but Wen Ying had no interest in correcting him.

As Wen Ying turned to leave, Gentle suddenly lunged, clawing at her. "You can’t go! I’ll die if you leave! How can you be so heartless!"

Sensing the movement behind her, Wen Ying sidestepped, and Gentle crashed to the floor.

"Don’t touch me again. Understand?"

But evidently, no matter how formidable Wen Ying was, she was far less of a threat than Smith.

Gentle scrambled back to her feet and glared at Wen Ying, her eyes a mixture of grievance, rage, resentment, and a touch of pitiable desperation.

"Are you determined to see me dead?"

"What does your life or death have to do with me? Touch me again, and I’ll break your arm. Got it?"

Wen Ying’s gaze turned cold, and the look seemed to startle Gentle.

Before Gentle could react, Wen Ying had already turned and walked away.

Now, only she and Smith remained in the dormitory.

Trembling, Gentle fell to her knees and crawled toward Smith, tears streaming down her face.

As Wen Ying was leaving, she heard a woman’s scream and another indistinct sound from the dormitory, but she didn’t pause. She just kept walking.

The human heart is complex.

And human nature is not to be trusted.

[Doctor Wen, where did Zhao Ge go? Can we find out what happened to him?]

[If someone like Zhao Ge returns to the world, I’m afraid more people will get hurt!]

[Smith and Zhao Ge were in it together. After that last plot twist, I don’t dare believe my own eyes. So is Zhao Ge dead or alive? Or is he just hidden somewhere by Smith?]

[What was that sound just now? That Gentle and Smith...]

[To the commenter above... it’s unspeakable...]

Wen Ying needed to clear her head. After leaving the dormitory, she headed straight for the basement entrance.

"Of course Zhao Ge is dead. He thought he was so clever, that he’d be the final winner. But to Smith, he was just an ant that could be crushed at any moment. He only got to be Smith’s second-in-command because he groveled. But when Smith decided he wanted him dead, Zhao Ge couldn’t fight back at all."

"The people he killed can finally rest in peace."

"None of Zhao Ge’s immediate family are alive, either. They should be able to have a family reunion down below."

Wen Ying sighed at the thought.

But Wen Ying’s sigh sent the livestream chat’s imagination running wild.

[Doctor Wen, you said his family will meet ’down below’? Do you mean the underworld? That reminds me of Chaochao! How is Chaochao doing now?]

[Yeah, it feels like we haven’t heard anything about Chaochao in a long time. Didn’t Chaochao’s mother go back to that huge Qin Family?]

[I remember on the Ghost Festival, Chaochao saw her mother. Didn’t they say they would meet again someday?]

[I remember that too! I remember the host gave Chaochao some things, right? She said Chaochao would have a good life in the world below!]

[So if Zhao Ge runs into Chaochao, can she grind his bones to dust again?]

[So when can we see Chaochao again? My heart breaks just thinking about that sweet little girl!]
