But what the hell was this?
“Is this an alternative method of gaining new fans?”
“Why do I feel like she’s been kidnapped?”
“Should we call the police?”
“This girl is tied up like a dumpling. Who’s the one calling in?”
The viewers all had different opinions.
“Everyone, quiet down for a while.”
“She isn’t kidnapped,” Chen Yu said softly. “She’s wearing a restraining belt that restrains people with mental illnesses.”
At that moment, a woman in her fifties appeared behind the girl.
“Hello, Dr. Chen. I’m her mother.”
The woman explained to everyone that she was the one who called in.
She received a phone call when the call connected, so she did not stand in front of the screen.
“Your daughter is suffering from a serious mental illness,” Chen Yu said. “You tied her up with a restraint because she tried to commit suicide multiple times.”
“That’s right, that’s right. Dr. Chen, you’re as godly as they say.”
The woman kept nodding and revealed her daughter’s situation without hesitation.
Her husband passed away more than ten years ago, leaving them a small clothing factory.
She placed her husband’s hopes and dreams in the clothing factory they once jointly ran.
The factory expanded, and she became the most taxed person in their community.
Just as her career was going smoothly, bad news struck.
His daughter, who was a university student, slit her wrist.
Fortunately, she was saved in time and got out of danger quickly.
Her daughter said she wanted suicide because she couldn’t feel love.
“It’s all my fault. I’ve been busy with my business these past few years and neglected my daughter. That must be why she lacked love.”
The woman wiped her tears in self-reproach.
“After that day, I handed the factory to my assistant and went to my daughter’s university to accompany her.”
“I didn’t expect her hatred for me to be so strong that she attempted suicide four more times.”
“I was so scared that I had no choice but to bring her back to my hometown and watch over her.”
“Despite this, she attempted suicide twice while I was distracted.”
“I had no choice but to tie her up.”
The woman consulted a psychologist, and the doctor judged that her daughter suffered from severe depression.
Her suicidal tendencies were obvious, and she could only be treated with medicine and psychological guidance.
She had spent a lot of money, but nothing was working.
The woman had heard that Huyu Platform had a ridiculously impressive psychologist streamer the night before.
Perhaps, this streamer could cure her daughter’s depression.
Of course, the woman didn’t blindly believe the rumors and had spent the entire day watching Chen Yu’s livestream recordings.
She firmly believed that even if Chen Yu wasn’t a psychologist…
He must be a powerful immortal.
“I don’t have depression, and I don’t lack motherly love!”
Melancholic Stardew suddenly shouted.
“Dr. Chen, please help me. My daughter’s illness is acting up again.”
The woman panicked, as tears flowed down her face.
“I trust you, dear patient,” Chen Yu said with a faint smile.
Hearing this, Melancholic Stardew stopped shouting.
With a vigilant gaze, she stared at Chen Yu.
Nodding, Chen Yu continued, “I’m a professional psychologist. I’ll never lie about a patient’s condition.”
“You’re not suffering from depression and don’t lack motherly love.”
Melancholic Stardew pursed her lips and continued to remain silent.
“This doesn’t seem right.”
“Why do I feel like I’ve entered the wrong livestream?”
“Dr. Chen, if you’re being threatened, just blink at us.”
“No one has been able to avoid the part where they were declared ill the past few times. This is Dr. Chen’s first statement that the person isn’t sick.”
“Watson, what do you think?”
“Is Dr. Chen using psychological consolation therapy to tell her that she’s not sick and to open up her heart slowly?”
No matter how lively any netizen was, they didn’t know what to say after that.
Upon hearing Chen Yu state that her daughter wasn’t sick, the woman hurriedly took out diagnosis reports from many psychological hospitals.
“Dr. Chen, look. These are the diagnosis certificates from many of our local psychological hospitals.”
“It says that my daughter suffers from a severe bipolar disorder.”
“Please don’t delay my daughter’s illness just to comfort us.”
Previously, some doctors had said something similar to Chen Yu.
They tried to convince the woman and her daughter that she was not sick or that her condition was not serious to gradually gain her daughter’s trust.
The method didn’t work, and it made her daughter even more anxious.
“Ma’am, your daughter really doesn’t lack motherly love, nor does she have bipolar disorder.”
Chen Yu patiently explained.
“If it wasn’t for her bipolar disorder, why would she try committing suicide over and over again?”
“She keeps saying that she lacks love. If she doesn’t lack the love of a mother like me, then what is it?”
The woman’s trust in Chen Yu began to wane.
She thought Chen Yu was a capable expert but hadn’t expected him to dismiss her daughter’s illness entirely.
“I took over the factory for over ten years after my husband died.”
“Most of the time, a caretaker takes care of my daughter.”
“If I had only spent more time with her, perhaps she wouldn’t have fallen sick.”
The woman held her face and wailed.
“Auntie, I understand how your daughter feels. Is she particularly introverted, and has she kept everything to herself?”
An old client of Chen Yu’s arrived.
“He and the Melancholic Stardew ought to be in the same boat. They both come from wealthy families but have no parents to care for them.”
“Brother Cherry, are you still on the road to true love?”
“Did you meet your cute birdy after that?”
“You guys are really mean. Little brother, why don’t you come and pursue a big sister like me?”
“My hands got the better of me, clicking into this person’s profile. Argh, my eyes. Auntie, how old are you this year?”
[Cherry Blossom Trees Waiting for Rain] sent another paid comment.
“Dr. Chen, why don’t you let me talk to her? We have the same experience. Maybe I can help her resolve the knot in her heart.”
Chen Yu smiled and shook his head.
“Her situation is completely different from your experience. You can’t guide her.”
“She doesn’t lack her mother’s love, and her condition isn’t bipolar disorder.”
“However…”
The netizens boiled with excitement after hearing that.
“At long last.”
“Finally, back to normal.”
“Yes, there’s that familiar smell.”
“Although it’s late, it’s finally arrived.”
Chen Yu’s “However…” was like a horn leading an army’s charge.
The comments in the chat shuttled back and forth.
The word that they had been waiting for was finally here.
“This patient doesn’t have bipolar disorder,” Chen Yu stated solemnly. “However, she does have a mental illness.”
“As I said initially, her mental illness is very serious.”
“At this point, it’s no longer just a mental illness.”
“Her internal organs have already reached an unbearable level of stress.”
“The name of this illness is called Broken Heart Syndrome.”
Melancholic Stardew widened her eyes in shock that words couldn’t describe.
“The only reason this illness is getting worse is because you are doing it to yourself,” Chen Yu said strangely.
