Don't Lie to Your Therapist—She Already Knows Your Fate Chapter 190 - 188: The Author’s Brain Is Too Small for This

"I’m sorry, but it’s psychosis, not a neurological disorder. My fellow patient, this cognitive impairnt of yours seems quite severe. You should seek treatnt as soon as possible, or the consequences will be dire. As a psychologist, I feel it is my duty to educate you on the difference between the two.

A neurological disorder is a disease of the nervous system that can cause many organic diseases, such as cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral palsy, cerebral infarction, Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, and facial paralysis. A patient might suffer from paralysis or convulsions, motor dysfunction, or numbness. Clearly, my fellow patient, you don’t fit that description.

Psychosis, on the other hand, primarily manifests as changes in emotion, thought, willpower, and psychological activity. It can also be called a ntal disorder and may present with symptoms like depression, hallucinations, delusions, consciousness disorders, and personality changes. For instance, a patient might refuse to admit they’re sick and require antipsychotic dication for treatnt.

But, my fellow patient, you are incredibly lucky!"

Wen Ying said to the man, her tone sincere.

"Are you saying I have delusions?" The man considered it. ’He definitely didn’t have any of the other things she ntioned. If this woman was going to force a diagnosis on him, it would have to be delusions—accusing him of being unworthy, so kind of toad lusting after a swan.’

The man found it amusing, and his tone unconsciously took on an air of arrogance.

"You’re mistaken, my fellow patient. You have multiple concurrent disorders! Your condition is even more serious!"

The older-looking man sitting on the inside heard this and grew displeased. "Miss, isn’t it a bit rude to talk to my brother like that? You’re lucky you ran into us; we’re willing to let this go. But you should know, others might not be so accommodating. Just have your friend here switch seats with my older brother, and we’ll forget this ever happened."

Wen Ying looked at him, puzzled and a bit hesitant. "You want to sit with ?"

The man seed taken aback by her response and was montarily stunned. He then heard Wen Ying continue, "It’s not out of the question. After all, I am a psychologist. As long as you pay, I can treat your illness as well."

Wen Ying said this with great seriousness.

The man let out an exasperated laugh. "Do you have any idea who we are?"

"My future patients."

"You! We’re from the Pingcheng Hou Family! My older brother might look young, but with his status, what kind of woman can’t he get? As for you, you’re good-looking, but you’re no virgin. If you wanted to be with , I’d even have to think twice."

Wen Ying’s expression grew worried. "My fellow patient, have your delusions gotten this severe? You’re truly lucky this ti. Fortunately, you’ve run into . Just pay my fee, and I guarantee I’ll cure you."

The beautiful woman beside her, seeing Wen Ying getting more and more worked up, quietly reached out and poked her arm. "Maybe we should just drop it? Let’s just ignore them. The Pingcheng Hou Family is a bit strange. A lot of people are afraid to provoke them."

The woman’s voice was low, so only Wen Ying heard her.

Who knew that hearing the word "strange" would pique Wen Ying’s interest so much.

"My two fellow patients, are you really from the Pingcheng Hou Family?"

Seeing her ask this, the n assud she finally understood their status and was about to apologize and grovel.

The younger-looking but actually older man imdiately beca smug. "Of course we are. Scared now? I’m a magnanimous man, so I can forgive you. As long as you’re obedient... you, the one who’s been talking, just wait. First, have this beauty accompany to the restroom."

"Everyone says the Pingcheng Hou Family is strange, and today I’ve truly learned sothing new. So, you people from the Hou family have mouths for the sole purpose of spewing shit. No wonder this guy seems so stiff and stinky at first glance, like he’s covered in disgusting viruses."

Wen Ying said with a sudden realization.

"You—"

"Stop. Let speak first. After all, I am a psychologist who treats all my fellow patients equally. I would never discriminate against a cesspool like you! The consultation fee is one thousand yuan. You will definitely be paying it. Otherwise, once we get off this plane, the business deal you’re traveling for might just fall through."

The younger-looking but older man flew into a rage. "So you won’t cry until you see the coffin, is that it? Believe it or not, I can make sure you never leave the airport!"

The older-looking but younger man, however, stared at Wen Ying in astonishnt. "How did you know we were going to discuss business?"

He wasn’t an idiot like his older brother; he still had so sense left in his head.

"I already told you. I’m a psychologist. Upon seeing you, I can deduce what you’re about to do from your facial features, expressions, language, and body movents."

"You’ve got to be kidding, right? I’ve t psychologists before, and none of them are as capable as you claim to be."

Wen Ying spread her hands. "If you don’t believe , you can pay my fee. Shall I show you the difference between one psychologist and another?"

"Fine!" The man laughed in exasperation, pulled out a thousand yuan in cash, and handed it to Wen Ying. "Then give a reading."

Wen Ying smiled as she pocketed the money. The beautiful woman watching this felt like her entire worldview was being reshaped.

’She earned a thousand yuan just like that?’

’And from people who were clearly not good guys?’

While her mind was wandering, she heard Doctor Wen’s voice again. "You and your brother aren’t blood-related, are you?"

The man’s expression changed drastically. But before he could speak, his younger-looking older brother burst out cursing, "What the hell are you babbling about? We are blood brothers! We’re both Young Masters of the Hou family, understand? I get hundreds of thousands in allowance every month to spend however I want!"

A flicker of conflict crossed the face of the man sitting on the inside, but he quickly covered it with a smile. "Looks like your skills aren’t all that great. He is my older brother, and we are indeed blood-related."

The smile on Wen Ying’s face was mischievous. "Is that so? You know the real answer in your heart. Since you’re unwilling to admit it, fine. We can talk about sothing else. Your trip to Jiang City isn’t just for business. There’s also an arranged marriage—one that’s ant for you, though everyone thinks it’s for your brother."

The younger-looking but older man got angry again. "What the hell are you talking about?! I’m the one getting married! The marriage is to a daughter of the Jin family from Golden City! It’s not that I don’t want to marry a great beauty like you, but my family has given a life free of worries, so I have to contribute sothing in return, right? You two may be beautiful, but without a family background to support you, the best you can hope for is to be my mistress. As long as you don’t mind the title, I can guarantee you a life of comfort and ease! Besides the official status, you’d be no different from my wife!"

Wen Ying: "..."

"Young Master Hou, you’ve had this... condition... for two years now, haven’t you?"

The man who looked older than his age heard Wen Ying’s words, and his heart was thrown into turmoil!

This arranged marriage was indeed for him. It was a secret known only to the most core mbers of the family.

Everyone thought it was for his older brother, but that was just a front.

Even his older brother didn’t know.
