Sienna Tower couldn’t understand why, but he seemed to have personally experienced the future Chen Yu described.
Scene after scene seemed to flash before his eyes.
“After you witnessed your fake daughter getting killed and falling into a mental breakdown, you received a call from your friend.”
“Your friend then told you everything you’ve experienced was fake.”
“At that moment, your heart is in excruciating pain, like a knife stabbing into it.”
“Your friend then went on to explain you’ve been living in a constant state of perverse obsession with deception.11
“Your obsession has caused your family to fall apart.”‘
“It is also your obsession that has caused you to fall into a long period of self-torture.”
“You claim to be a con artist, but you were fooled even by a layman like him.”
“It’s time for you to wake up from this obsession of yours.”
Chen Yu’s narration sounded like a church bell ringing in his ears.
Sienna Tower jolted, knowing it was time for him to wake up.
if that was really his daughter, what would he do if she was really interested in the art of swindling?
Would her ending be the same?
Even if he took a step back and said that his daughter wasn’t interested in his s lulls.
If he couldn’t suppress his inner feelings and was prepared to pull off another heist, would those victims not take revenge on his daughter?
Once he thought of all kinds of terrifying consequences, Sienna Tower’s body trembled violently.
He held his head with his hands again.
“Could it be that Dr. Chen is also doing some kind of shock therapy?”
“Very similar.”
“Fortunately, Sienna Tower found Dr. Chen; otherwise… otherwise, he would have recovered regardless?”
“Hahaha, funny, right?”
“Nah, I feel that Dr. Chen s treatment method is better. At least he doesn’t have to go through so much pain.”
“After experiencing all kinds of tragedies, anyone would be able to break through their shackles and stand up amidst the pain.”
“Although he’s a piece of shir, 1 can’t really hate him anymore when I think of the price he paid.”
“Kinship is the best lie.”
“But it is also rhe best antidote.”
Some psychology majors or those who had experienced the joys and sorrows of life spoke our.
The reason why Sienna Tower was so easily scammed was because he wasn’t guarded against his friend.
Of course, his mental illness was already at a critical point.
He had long lost the vigilance that a swindler should have.
When a girl claimed to be his daughter, the fact that Sienna Tower did not suspect anything was enough to prove this point.
However, if he ate Chen Yu’s medicine…
He would become shrewd and calm again.
Soon, he could see through the entire scheme, and his so-called daughter’ was pulling on him.
In its entirety, the core of this scam working on Sienna Tower was his fake daughter, who represented kinship.
She was also the only character who could change Sienna Tower’s mentality.
If even his ‘daughter’ walking down his old path and dying because of him couldn’t wake Sienna Tower up, he would be deemed incurable.
“Dr. Chen, thank you.”
Sienna Tower stood up and respectfully bowed to Chen Yu.
The Sienna Tower agreed with what a viewer just said.
Kinship was the best antidote.
Only when he was scammed did he understand how detestable a swindler was.
Looking back at the first half of his life, Sienna Tower had always been the one deceiving others.
Even in prison, he did not give up on it.
However, he was no longer deceiving others but himself.
He would lie to himself to divert his attention, trying to defeat his chronic addiction.
Little did he know that this was still an act of deception.
“You don’t have to thank me. it’s a doctor’s duty to help patients solve their problems.”
Chen Yu’s expression was indifferent.
“If you really want to thank someone, thank your friend.”
‘Twill.”
Sienna Tower bowed to Chen Yu once again and paid his consultation fee.
The second before he logged off, Chen Yu looked at his face again.
The melancholy and anxiety in his eyes had already disappeared.
“The three consultations today are over. See you all next time.”
Waving his hand, Chen Yu logged off to rest.
Three live consultation sessions, three different ways of life.
Chen Yu helped them and also reaped considerable luck and merit.
Kun deserved his death.
If it weren’t for the fact that there was still a chance of survival, Chen Yu wouldn’t have bothered with him.
As Chen Yu went offline, two powerful streams of luck and merit gathered around him.
Chen Yu, who was familiar with this, quickly absorbed them.
“Hm!”
After absorbing the luck and merit, Chen Yu’s heart was pumped.
His fingers moved slightly.
The next moment, a complicated expression appeared on Chen Yu’s face.
Hangzhou City, Yunling Street.
It was an ordinary old street.
During the day, there weren’t many people on the streets.
But this place would become unusually lively at night, especially late at night.
After midnight, the streets were brightly lit.
The crowd was bustling as if they were going to a temple fair for the New Year.
Countless stalls were propped up from the start to the end of the street.
Antiques, jade, top-grade medicinal herbs, gold, and even silver jewelry could be seen everywhere.
This was the most mysterious market in Hangzhou City.
The Ghost Market.
At this moment, Chen Yu squeezed into the crowd on the street and looked around.
Before long, Chen Yu’s gaze landed on a stall in the middle of the street.
A fat stall owner sold all kinds of antiques that looked decent.
However, very few people stopped to take a look.
“Young man, these are all high-quality antiques that I just took out of my old house.”
“If there’s anything you like, feel free to take a look. I promise to give you a discounted price.”
When the fat stall owner saw someone coming to his stall, he immediately began introducing his wares.
“I want you to wear that thing around your neck.”
Chen Yu said this with a faint smile.
Hearing this, the stall owner was stunned.
He sized up Chen Yu again.
“What, you won t sell it to me?”
Chen Yu asked.
“Young man, you really have a good eye for things. This thing is a treasure that can only be encountered by chance.”
After saying that, the stall owner pulled the necklace off his neck.
It was a black pearl strung on a red string.
Immediately after, the stall owner began to praise the extraordinariness of this black pearl.
It was a South Sea Black Pearl, a rare treasure in the world.
“Young man, you are an expert. You must have seen many black pearls.”
“But no matter how many you’ve seen, you’ve never seen one this big, right?”
The stall owner proclaimed it proudly.
“Look at it, such a big black pearl.”
“300,000 yuan.”
The stall owner stretched out three fingers.
He looked like he was willing to part with his treasure just because of Chen Yu’s good eye.
“300,000 is too low,” Chen Yu said with a faint smile. “1’11 offer one million.”
“A million?!”
The stall owner was shocked.
Chen Yu looked quite normal. He didn’t look like he was a lunatic.
Why would he bargain in the opposite direction?
“Young man, are you sure you want to buy it with a million?”
The stall owner asked tentatively.
“You’re mistaken about one thing.”
“I will accept this black pearl if you give me a million yuan.”
Chen Yu’s words were shocking, and the stall owner’s nose nearly went crooked from anger..
