Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Chen Yu’s words were no less than a heavy bomb dropped on her.
She had just discovered that the boy had fancied her and was even planning to take the initiative to confess after his graduation.
Melancholic Stardew was so happy that she wanted to stand up and celebrate loudly.
However, the next moment Melancholic Stardew was once again thrown into an abyss of eternal damnation.
The boy she had a crush on for years only had two months to live.
“Actually, even if he avoided this crisis, you won’t be able to wait for his confession either.”
Melancholic Stardew’s mind went blank as she didn’t even hear what Chen Yu said.
Of course, the viewers and Melancholic Stardew’s mother heard this clearly.
“Dr. Chen, could it be that my daughter…?” the woman asked anxiously.
“It seems like you’ve already guessed it.” Chen Yu nodded.
“Let’s go back to the initial stage of my diagnosis.”
“Broken Heart Syndrome is not as romantic as your daughter thinks.”
“Once this illness acts up, it will cause the patient to feel chest tightness, grief, and anxiety,” Chen Yu continued calmly.
“They will be stuck in all kinds of negative emotions, always drowning in sorrow.”
“Doctors back then called it lovesickness.”
“Most of these patients have lost their loved ones or have a rough love life.”
“Your daughter has had a crush on a boy for three years and lacks the courage to confess.”
“She fell into an endless spiral of thought, always wondering whether he loved her or not. This is the cause of her illness.”
“Every time your daughter sees him, her heart aches.”
“She assumed it was her heart skipping a beat but didn’t know it was a warning signal.”
“Broken Heart Syndrome is a mental illness, but if you don’t pay attention to it, it will develop into a life-threatening physical illness.”
After saying so, Chen Yu tapped his chest with his hand again.
“What that physical illness will manifest is here.”
“The heart?!” The woman exclaimed.
At this moment, the woman finally understood why Chen Yu had constantly mentioned her heart when he was recounting her daughter’s suicide attempts.
Chen Yu nodded and continued, “If you had discovered it early and admitted her to the hospital, this problem could have been easily cured.”
“Once delayed, the negative emotions from her depression will continue to cause her to have chest tightness, chest pain, and shortness of breath.”
“Her adrenaline and dopamine will decrease greatly, causing the heart to contract weakly.”
“At the same time, her blood vessels will continue to act up due to emotional influence.”
“If the heart doesn’t get a timely supply of blood, your daughter will have a cardiac arrest at any time.”
Chen Yu heaved a sigh, his gaze carrying a trace of pity.
During her fourth suicide attempt, Melancholic Stardew roughly knew that she might have Broken Heart Syndrome.
Of course, her weird train of thought led her to believe that this illness was specially prepared for people like her who valued love above all else.
Moments ago, Chen Yu used his Heavenly Secret Strategy to see through the past of Melancholic Stardew.
Chen Yu almost wanted to cover his face with his hand.
All her dumb decisions were coming back to bite her in the ass.
“Quack! Those doctors are all quacks!”
The woman gritted her teeth in anger.
Her daughter’s life was hanging by a thread, and the psychologists she went to kept saying that she was just depressed.
If it weren’t for Chen Yu’s pointers, she wouldn’t even know the truth about her daughter’s illness until she died.
“Ma’am, calm down. Actually, you can’t completely blame them.”
Chen Yu consoled the woman.
“Broken Heart Syndrome is an illness that is well-hidden. Not only in our country, it is also often misdiagnosed overseas.”
“In addition, this disease has only been discovered for 30 years. It’s difficult to diagnose it without an expert.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yu glanced at Melancholic Stardew, who had just regained her senses.
“Dr. Chen, since you can clarify it so clearly, I’m sure you can cure my daughter’s illness.”
“Is one million enough? If it’s not enough, I’ll give you two, no, three million!”
“If we don’t treat her mental illness first,” Chen Yu replied calmly, “even if her body recovers, she’ll still die.”
“Moreover, her eighth suicide attempt will succeed.”
Melancholic Stardew’s expression changed after hearing that.
“Can you cure him?”
After hesitating for a moment, Melancholic Stardew looked at Chen Yu with a gaze filled with anticipation.
“I can.”
Instantly, the livestream chat was in an uproar.
“Dr. Chen has given himself away again.”
“I can’t believe he’s still insisting on his facade. I’m sure he’s about to give out a bottle of holy water soon.”
“Nah, most likely an immortal pill.”
“It’s also possible he will give out an elixir or something of the sort.”
“Dr. Chen, just confess. Which deity are you?”
Those familiar with Chen Yu knew that his psychologist title was nothing more than a pretense.
They would cooperate with him since Chen Yu wanted to keep up his facade.
They had already witnessed Chen Yu’s ability to predict the future without missing a single bit.
Thus, it wouldn’t be surprising if he were to bestow pills and talismans.
“Dr. Chen, please name your price. I’ll pay for the boy’s treatment too.”
“Please also cure my daughter too.”
At this point, how could the woman not understand that her daughter’s heart was firmly attached to that boy?
If she wanted her daughter to obediently take her medicine and give up the idea of committing suicide, she first had to save that boy’s life.
If the boy died, his daughter would not live either.
Moreover, Chen Yu had already said her daughter would succeed in her eighth suicide attempt.
At the thought of this, the woman was willing to spend any amount of money.
“Two sets of medicine, 100,000 yuan each,” Chen Yu replied with a smile. “I will provide their medicine until their illness is cured.”
“So cheap?”
The woman was stunned, as she was already prepared for her purse to bleed.
She did not expect it to cost only 200,000 yuan.
“Auntie, do you still need a daughter? I’m a good girl.”
“The difference between humans is sure despairing. 1 hope that in my next life, I can be a child to this family.”
“I’m sure in a few years, the above commenter will be calling Melancholic Stardew their mother in a cutesy voice.”
“Melancholic Stardew has a good personality. I’m sure we can be friends.” “200,000 yuan is cheap? The wealthy are sure of something else.”
“Even if I don’t eat or drink for a year, I only get around 60,000.”
“I’m earning even less. I’m only earning 50,000 a year.”
“Who gave you the courage to announce your pitiful five-figure annual salary?”
Her daughter’s issue was finally going to be resolved after several years of living on the edge of worry.
The woman was finally in a good mood.
She not only didn’t care that the chat made fun of them, but she also donated generously, splitting 20,000 yuan among everyone in the chat.
At this time, Chen Yu left his seat.
Just as the netizens finished snatching their share of the money, Chen Yu returned to his chair and sat down.
There were two things in his hand.
“Is that a bag of spicy sticks?”
“It is spicy sticks. I’ve eaten them before.”
“I have to get a pair of new glasses. I’m seeing things with my current one.”
“Why does that green drink look so familiar?”
“Of course, it’s familiar. It’s a bottle of Sprite.”
“Dr. Chen, are you sure those are medicines? Are you sure it isn’t a prop to make us laugh?”
The viewers who thanked the woman just moments ago had dumbfounded expressions.
The netizens swear to collectively call Chen Yu their dad if even a single thread could connect the items he brought back to any medicine.
One of them was a bottle of Sprite with a slightly blackened cap.
Another was a packet of crudely packaged food—a pack of spicy sticks.
A famous brand of spicy sticks, “Tang Sangzang’s Meat”..
