Shocking the Whole Internet! You Are Not a Psychologist at All!

Chapter 19: I'm Sick, And It's Not Minor

"Diligently practicing being frugal is a virtue, but there must be a limit to everything."

"Once this limit is exceeded, things tend to go to extremes."

"Your parents cooperated with your brother to refinance your properties without telling you. No matter what, it's indeed their fault."

"But have you ever wondered why they did that?"

Chen Yu's question hit Brother Xu deep into his soul, making him think carefully.

Brother Xu's parents had always listened to him and treated him as their proud son.

Why would they act so abnormally?

In an instant, the livestream chat stopped moving.

The netizens also wanted to know whether Brother Xu's parents did this because they were biased or if there was something else.

Brother Xu pondered momentarily and asked uncertainly, "Didn't my younger brother convince my parents with words?"

"No."

Chen Yu shook his head.

"Dr. Chen, I really can't think of anything now, and I'm not in the headspace to think about it. Please tell me the answer directly."

"Alright, listen carefully."

"I've already given you the answer earlier," Chen Yu said, enunciating each word clearly.

"He gave me the answer..."

Recalling Chen Yu's words, Brother Xu suddenly blurted out, "Could it be related to my frugality?"

"Yes, related to that."

Chen Yu nodded.

"Not all elderly like to live frugally."

"Your parents are old, but that doesn't mean they don't want to live a better life."

"They haven't complained about your so-called bootstrapping lifestyle because they are your parents."

Chen Yu began listing his behavior in detail.

Brother Xu had led his family to live frugally all these years.

To save money, the rice that the Xu family ate was the kind that was about to expire.

The taste was usually unflattering, and sometimes they were damp and smelly because they were about to expire.

Other than the rice, the quality of their vegetables and fruits was even worse.

Almost all their food was rotten vegetables and fruits that Brother Xu picked up from the market.

"After living more than ten years like this, no matter how much your parents love you, they were afraid."

"It's said that no one knows their son better than their parents. They know you are this frugal because of your personality."

"You also know your younger brother isn't a good-for-nothing like you claimed."

"Also, your younger brother promised to move out with them after earning his first pot of gold. This prompted your parents to refinance your properties behind your back."

Chen Yu glanced at the ashamed Brother Xu.

"Your frugal lifestyle is deeply rooted in your bones; understandably, you think money is saved, not earned."

"After all, this is your personal lifestyle and habits."

"Have you ever considered their feelings when you force your family to follow you and live a life of eating trash?"

When these words were said, the viewers couldn't help but sympathize with Brother Xu's parents and brother.

Chen Yu was right.

Everyone has the right to choose their way of life.

No one has the right to ask others to live the same life as them.

"What kind of life is this? My pet eats better than them."

"If I were Brother Xu's parents, I would have disowned him on the first day."

"I suspect you're taking advantage of Brother Xu, trying to be his parents."

"I suddenly understand Brother Xu's parents' behavior now."

"Whether it's Brother Xu's parents, his younger brother, or even Brother Xu himself, they're all at fault."

"The person above is right."

"If your conditions weren't good in the past and you had no choice but to eat frugally, that's fine. There's no need to sacrifice all of your happiness now that your lives have improved in order to save money.

"Brother Xu, why don't you forgive your parents and brother? There's nothing better than a happy family."

The netizens turned into street aunties.

One after another, they tried to persuade Brother Xu to forgive his parents.

After Chen Yu's explanation, everyone understood that Brother Xu's parents really weren't biased toward their youngest son.

They were just afraid of living such a life anymore.

They believed that their youngest son could provide them with a better life if he succeeded in making money from his business.

"Dear patient, are you willing to accept my treatment suggestion?"

"I'm willing!"

"You're right, Dr. Chen," Brother Xu said firmly. "I'm indeed sick, and it's not a minor one."

"I always thought that I was the right one. I've never considered the feelings of my parents and younger brother."

"If I hadn't come to your livestream today, I'm afraid... no, I'm sure my family would be broken up."

Brother Xu stood up with teary eyes.

He bowed to the screen with a myriad of emotions in his heart.

"You cured my illness and saved my family's lives."

"From today onward, I will change my frugality."

"I'll still be living frugally, but on the basis of ensuring my family's living conditions."

Other than gratitude, Brother Xu was also feeling fearful.

If he didn't come to Chen Yu's livestream on a whim to gain popularity...

He didn't even dare to think about what would happen in the future.

"Saving money is to avoid unnecessary expenses, not to eat expired food and wear tattered clothes."

"Being frugal without considering your situation is equivalent to putting the cart before the horse."

Chen Yu revealed a smile.

The karma and luck that came from fixing a family on the verge of breaking up should be quite hefty.

"Dr. Chen, you're right. I'll remember what you said for the rest of my life."

To change himself, Brother Xu had to start by being grateful.

Brother Xu then did something that he never once thought possible in his life.

He rewarded Chen Yu with ten carnival gifts in one go.

"Brother Xu has truly changed his ways. I can't believe he's willing to take out so much money to thank Dr. Chen."

"If it were me, I would give 20 carnival gifts."

"Dr. Chen saved Brother Xu's family, a life-saving grace. In ancient times, it would have been building a memorial to thank him."

Huyu's number one stingy streamer, Brother Xu, for the first time, gave ten carnival gifts.

This was equivalent to gifting Chen Yu a great advertisement.

Noon was never the peak period for watching livestreams.

However, thanks to Brother Xu's advertisement and viewer recommendations, the livestream attracted close to 200,000 viewers.

Moreover, the number of viewers was still increasing.

"Dr. Chen, I'll go offline first. Let's talk later."

Before leaving, Brother Xu also remembered to pay the 5,000 yuan treatment fee.

After Brother Xu logged off, Chen Yu said with a faint smile, "I welcome another patient if they want to do a call-in."

As soon as he said that, colorful special effects appeared in the livestream.

Someone had given Chen Yu several carnival gifts.

Moreover, a hundred gifts at once.

"Didn't Brother Xu leave? Why are there still carnival gifting effects?"

"Spending this much on gifts doesn't seem like Brother Xu."

"It definitely isn't Brother Xu. 100 carnival gifts cost 300,000 yuan!"

"Could it be a wealthy young man who doesn't lack the money?"

While the viewers passionately debated who could afford such extravagant spending, a caller joined Chen Yu's livestream.

After seeing who called in, the 200,000 viewers were left with only one response.

Fuck!

How could it be him?
