Just now, the viewers had sent a comment to tease him that [Yes, I’m that Great]’s parents must be wealthy.
Otherwise, why would his parents go to Mayo Clinic for treatment?
In that place, the more serious the illness, the higher the price.
Once someone started receiving chemotherapy, money would run like flowing water.
Don’t even think about going there if you aren’t filthy rich.
When [Yes, I’m that Great] admitted that his family was poor and his house was even less valuable, something was not right.
At this moment, the chat was confused.
What kind of business could bring his family such a massive amount of wealth?
It couldn’t be the mid-year lottery special prize, right?
Even if others agreed, [Yes, I’m that Great] was still confused.
He punched his chest forcefully and finally stopped coughing.
“Dr. Chen, tell me quickly. Where did my parents get so much money?”
After saying that, he felt that it was easy for the chat to misunderstand him.
So, he added.
“Chat, I’m definitely not after their money. I’m just curious.”
“My parents are honest and ordinary people. They don’t have any business talent.”
“The chat can answer your question,” Chen Yu said with a smile.
“???”
The chat was also confused.
They didn’t understand why Chen Yu was keeping them in suspense again.
“Dear patient, tell them your real name, and you will get the answer.”
“Don’t worry, you’re not a fugitive. You don’t have to worry about anyone coming to arrest you.”
“My name is…”
Just as he was about to say his name, he suddenly shut his mouth.
Many hot-tempered viewers sent comments to urge him.
The so-called murder case was simply a mistake.
Moreover, the number of viewers watching this livestream was about to reach 10 million. [Yes, I’m that Great] had already said everything that he should and should not say anyway.
What was there to hide now?
“Alright, I’ll tell you.”
He thought about it and stammered out his name.
“Are you sure this isn’t your real online name?”
“Sima Yi: 1 swear on my honor that 1 won’t kill you. Come back to me.”
“I abandon Wei for Shu. No regrets!”
“The ones who attacked Wei the most actively were the direct relatives of the Cao family.”
“LMAO.”
“Brother, while it isn’t that no one else has the same name as you before, I’m sure no one has this name now.”
The male viewers were having a great time playing with memes, while the female fans were full of black question marks.
Was [Yes, I’m that Great]’s real name that special?
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have caused such a huge commotion.
“Everyone, don’t laugh at me. My name, Xiahou Ba, is different from what you think.”
“The “Ba” in my name has a different meaning from the one you are thinking of.”
Xiahou Ba explained the origin of the name with a helpless expression.
It sounded like his name was the same as Xiahou Ba, the famous general of the Three Kingdoms, but the pronunciation was different.
His parents gave him the word “Ba”, meaning “Pull”, in hopes that he would pull himself into being an outstanding person.
Because of his accent, he pronounced his name as the same General Xiahou Ba in legends.
“Xiahou Ba? Oh my god! Could it be you’re the young master of that chain store?”
“Maybe they have the same name?”
“Son, we’re rich now. You’re a second-generation heir.”
“That chain brand has just completed two rounds of financing. I heard that its assets have already reached two to three billion.”
“The case has been solved! His parents are definitely the owners of that brand.”
“I remember my first time buying something in the store, and 1 still feel weird. Who would give it a name like that? I only know what it means now.”
“I know, too. As expected of parents who longed for their child.”
The viewers thought of a chain brand that was sensational in the country.
Xiahou Ba’s Pastry Shop.
The pastry shop was established ten years ago. Due to its strange name, it attracted a lot of people at the beginning of its opening.
In the beginning, the guests only went in to see what was so special about it.
They didn’t expect the pastries in the shop to actually be tasty.
After a while, the pastry shop had a fixed customer base.
Later, the pastry shop owner opened a branch in the provincial capital.
The locals were curious once again.
A few years later, there was a trend toward livestreaming, and a large number of streamers were born.
This pastry shop with a strange name and excellent taste immediately became the best choice for many streamers to visit.
Business was getting better and better, and Xiahou Ba’s Pastry Shop was opening more and more branches.
Its branches spread throughout all the major cities in the country.
The strange name and the cheap pastry attracted a lot of customers.
Thus, investment companies came knocking on their doors.
With this momentum, Xiahou Ba’s Pastry Shop completed several rounds of financing.
This year, its market value had reached more than two billion—nearly three billion.
“Dr. Chen, are the owners of this shop my parents? Are they really that wealthy?”
[Yes, I’m that Great] asked hurriedly.
“The brand owners are indeed your parents.”
“The reason they used your name as the name of the shop was not gimmick marketing, but to find you.”
“Your family has the surname Xiahou. This surname is very rare among the hundreds of surnames.”
“If you pass by a shop of theirs and see this name, they hope that you will guess that this shop is owned by your parents.”
“They kept opening branches because they wanted to find you.”
Following Chen Yu’s slow narration, [Yes, I’m that Great]’s family years of joys and sorrows were presented before everyone’s eyes.
One day, twelve years ago, [Yes, I’m that Great] had run home in a panic.
He told his parents breathlessly that he had accidentally killed someone.
His parents had been good citizens all their lives. Although they did not study much, they knew the principle of paying for a life and paying for a debt.
The law is long and wide, but it was never loose.
They knew [Yes, I’m that Great] couldn’t escape. Only by telling the truth could he get leniency.
But due to a moment of soft-heartedness, they actually let their son run away.
The next morning, [Yes, I’m that Greatl’s parents turned themselves in at the police station.
After the investigation by the police officers on duty, it was revealed that there was no murder that night.
No one reported witnessing a murder.
As a result, [Yes, I’m that Great]’s parents felt that their son might be deliberately scaring them.
After all, [Yes, I’m that Great] was often involved in a fight.
Every time he was made to study, it was more painful than torture for him.
Even [Yes, I’m that Great]’s parents let go of this matter and assumed that their son would be back in a few days.
But [Yes, I’m that Great] never did.
His parents panicked, worried that [Yes, I’m that Great] had joined a criminal gang.
The more they thought about it, the more afraid they got. They went to the police station again to report you missing.
The police took this matter very seriously and immediately launched an investigation.
They found out that you had used your ID to apply for a SIM card in a small town outside the city.
Sighing, Chen Yu continued, “Apart from reporting the case to the relevant authorities, your parents also spent all their savings to post missing person notices on the streets.”
“They even went on your local television and radio stations to find you.”
“Their love for you has never changed. No matter how naughty you were in the past, they will always treat you as their son.”
“Dad, Mom, I’m not worthy of being your son! I made you worry about me for twelve years!”
“I deserve to die; I’m not a thing!!!”
[Yes, I’m that Great] slapped himself so hard.
From Chen Yu’s description, it wasn’t difficult for him to guess that his parents must have suffered a lot in order to find him.
Even if the two of them were billionaires, that could not erase the pain and worry that [Yes, I’m that Great] had brought to his parents..
