Shocking the Whole Internet! You Are Not a Psychologist at All!-Chapter 15

Chapter 15 Two Mental Illnesses

“The world is unpredictable.”

“Brother Xu, what grudge do you have against your brother that you have to try killing him?”

“My potato chips and drinks are ready.”

“What a loving family.”

The viewers who had watched yesterday’s livestream had already vaguely summarized some of their experiences.

When Chen Yu began to speak with that half-smiling expression, bombshells would be dropped, and there would be endless fun to be had.

A netizen from Brother Xu’s livestream often heard of his little tricks to save money.

He would go to high-end residential areas, walking around garbage dumps near apartments with a large number of young people staying, and there was a high chance he could pick up some furniture, clothes, or shoes.

He got all his toiletries from cleaning-equipment websites after filling out surveys.

He only washed his clothes if it was absolutely necessary.

When he went to the public bath, he would bring his dirty clothes along with him to wash.

Apart from that, he also devised a way to save on the water bill.

That was, eating from the pot.

These were just a few examples, and it was impossible to list everything.

The fans sighed in admiration, as it was definitely a miracle that Brother Xu’s family of four could live healthily until now.

When they heard that Brother Xu had almost killed his entire family, the chat’s atmosphere reached its first climax.

“When you were ten years old, your mother gave you 50 cents to buy a bag of salt at the grocery store.”

“However, you saw a transparent plastic bag filled halfway with white powder as you passed by a trash can.”

“You mistook washing powder for edible salt and poured it into the salt jar after bringing it home.”

“Your whole family was poisoned. Fortunately, everyone was sent to the hospital in time, so your family’s lives were not in danger.”

“Unfortunately, your brother recovered the slowest, being the youngest.”

“To supplement his nutrition, you head to a fruit store to get some fruits.”

“You picked up a red sugar cane the store owner threw away, resulting in your brother heading into the emergency room again.”

Chen Yu told his story as if he were there in person.

He recounted it like a treasured story.

“Sheesh, Brother Xu is so stingy that he can’t even tell the difference between washing powder and salt.”

“It’s common knowledge that red sugar cane has deteriorated and contains a high concentration of neurotoxins.”

“An expired sugar cane is more deadly than a snake’s bite.”

“Brother Xu, what’s the taste of washing powder?”

“I can’t believe you dare eat something you picked up from the trash. Brother Xu, are you in such a hurry to send your entire family to the afterlife?”

“If I were Brother Xu’s younger brother, I’d always say it’s great to be alive.”

The viewers who didn’t know Brother Xu well all thought of the same thing, which was that he was bewitched by the devil.

“I was just thinking of saving as much money as I could. I never expected I would cause my family to be hospitalized.”

“As for the washing powder, it was a little salty when I dabbed a little on my tongue.”

“So I thought it was salt that was simply thrown away.”

Brother Xu’s face turned as red as a monkey’s butt.

After all, he had trained his thick skin to be impenetrable in order to save money.

Remembering that incident, he still could not help but blush.

“You’ve made many mistakes on the road to frugality,” Chen Yu said with a smile. “However, you’ve never once changed your mind.”

“Under your management, your family’s living expenses were strictly controlled to a few hundred yuan per month.”

“Your parents and younger brother had a lot of complaints, but after you bought two houses in ten years, their complaints went away.”

“A few years ago, you started livestreaming.”

“Relying on all kinds of money-saving tricks, you attracted millions of fans in just half a year.”

“Last year, you bought two more new houses and still had a few million yuan in savings.”

Brother Xu was dumbfounded after hearing this.

Was Chen Yu a psychologist or a private detective?

How could he know so much about his family’s affairs?

Whether it was his frugal mistakes or his savings after purchasing a few houses, Brother Xu had never shared this information with his fans.

“Other streamers hired teams to maintain their personas, but Brother Xu’s frugality is soaked to the bone. This is his real personality, offline or online.”

“Are all streamers this rich? He still has millions in his bank account even after buying houses.”

“I admit. I’m jealous.”

“Whoa, a family’s monthly living expenses are limited to a few hundred yuan? That’s just ridiculous.”

Brother Xu felt proud of his fans when he saw them admiring him.

“Brothers, if you want to buy a house, you are welcome to come to my livestream.”

“I’ve devised countless ways to save money, and these will undoubtedly allow everyone to buy a house within a few years.”

The netizens were amazed by Brother Xu.

Even at this time, he always remembered to advertise his livestream.

Brother Xu would probably gain tens of thousands of fans after this.

Giving out 3,000 yuan for a carnival gift in exchange for tens of thousands of fans was a fiery deal.

Watching Brother Xu constantly poach his viewers, Chen Yu neither got angry nor said anything against it.

He looked at him quietly, just like that.

After seven or eight self-advertisements, Brother Xu finally stopped.

“Dr. Chen, I admit that you have some skills. Everything you said was on the dot.”

“But still, I’m not sick.”

Having achieved his goal, Brother Xu wanted to wave goodbye to the viewers on Chen Yu’s livestream.

He was ready to end the joint livestream and start his class on saving money.

“No. Not only do you have a mental illness, but you will also develop a second mental illness soon,” Chen Yu said.

As soon as he said that, the chat was flooded with comments.

“Two flowers blooming at the same time is wonderful.”

“Dr. Chen, don’t keep us in suspense. What’s wrong with Brother Xu? Just say it out for everyone’s entertainment… I mean, worries.”

“Brother Xu is in danger.”

“Sister Zhou and Cherry, having just suffered depression, are already miserable enough. Brother Xu has set a new high in this livestream.”

“Brother Xu, listen to my advice. Retreat quickly, and don’t hesitate.”

“Men, drag this traitor out.”

“Since the viewers have spoken,” Brother Xu said with a bitter smile, “Dr. Chen, tell me. What exactly are the two mental illnesses that I have?”

To streamers, their viewers were their strongest support and were basically their “financial parents”.

Going offline and leaving at this time was equivalent to not disrespecting his “parents”.

It would result in a massive loss of fans, and even his earlier fans would switch to other streamers.

“Alright,” Chen Yu calmly replied. “Next, we can begin treatment.”

Brother Xu looked troubled when he heard that.

Spending 3,000 yuan on a carnival gift was enough to keep Brother Xu up all night.

Asking him to pay 5,000 yuan for a consultation?

To be honest, it wasn’t much different than severing a piece of his flesh.

“I’ll pay the 5,000 yuan consultation fee. Dr. Chen, let’s start the consultation.”

A paid comment popped up in the livestream.

“Brother Xu’s Number One Fan” appeared out of nowhere and commented.

“Thank you for your kindness, Number One Fan.”

Brother Xu was overjoyed by this and thanked his fan profusely.

“Alright,” Chen Yu said with a faint smile, “your first mental illness is your morbid self-control mood disorder.”

“What kind of illness is that?”

Brother Xu asked subconsciously.

“I’ll explain to you later.”

Chen Yu brushed past Brother Xu’s question.

He then announced Brother Xu’s second mental illness.

Mania.

It was also the most dangerous type of manic syndrome—aggressive mania.
