Chapter 59
After Yushu finished taking her medicine, the two of them chatted while drinking wine.
Yushu thought the light was too glaring and wanted to turn off some of the lights, but Shen Youlin refused: "Leave it like this, it's good. Tell me why you're in a bad mood."
"A child without a mother, it's a long story." Yushu sighed.
Shen Youlin threw peanuts into his mouth one by one: "I'll give you two minutes to organize your words."
"..."
"Oh, life is not easy. The rich lady sighs."
"Tsk, you're saying you're not useless? Becoming a rich lady like you, that's pretty much a failure."
"Why haven't you been beaten to death yet in all these years."
Shen Youlin was extremely proud: "Because I was born lucky. As long as I don't break the law, I can do whatever I want. Not like you, restricting yourself with so many rules and living such a tiring life."
"My rebirth skills are no good, of course my life is tiring."
"No, I said, it's the restrictions you placed on yourself. When I first saw you on the plane, I felt we were the same kind, a perfect match."
"..."
"A perfect match is not used like that."
Yushu held her forehead. This guy's also a PhD candidate in Chinese Language and Literature? Who would believe that? Yushu seriously suspected his academic credentials were fake.
"Who's the same kind as you? I can't live as unbridled as you do."
"That's because life has suppressed your true nature. Tell me, given the chance, wouldn't you indulge yourself?"
"..."
"See, I'm right on the mark," Shen Youlin rewarded her with a peanut.
Yushu said: "Can't refute that."
"I also spent a few muddled years in the past, without any self-respect. Later I felt everything was pretty boring, and the people around me were like idiots, I might as well go back to school and write my thesis, at least the idiots at school were lovable idiots."
"..."
Auntie tactfully left, giving the space to the couple.
Shen Youlin was concise and to the point: "Your dad is at the hospital taking care of your brother, your mom is hospitalized."
"You beat up my mom?"
"Look at you saying that, do I look like such a violent person? I sent her to the Sixth."
The Sixth, the colloquial name for Blue City Sixth People's Hospital, the most famous psychiatric hospital in the province.
"Your dear mom has borderline personality disorder, as well as severe manic depression and depression, accompanied by severe anxiety, and that strong desire for control of hers also stems from extreme lack of security. The doctor diagnosed her and immediately gave her a hospitalization order."
Yushu didn't know what to say. She had never dared to think too deeply in that direction. She vaguely remembered when she was very little, Ye Ping wasn't like this. She was beautiful and gentle, always smiling, speaking softly, keeping the house tidy, braiding her hair beautifully every day.
It was the hard life that forced her into what she had become.
"The doctor said your mother's condition is quite complex, partly congenital inheritance, partly personality, and partly life experience."
"Inherited?"
"Yeah, your dad said that your mom's close relatives, aunts, grandmas and the like, quite a few were mentally abnormal."
"Then I might also..."
"Then what about you?" Shen Youlin teased her, "Are you going to the hospital tomorrow too, to get scheduled for electroshock therapy?"
"That's not a bad idea either."
Shen Youlin anxiously said: "I'm joking with you! Nowadays, who doesn't have some issues? Why are you thinking so much! I have problems too!"
"What problems do you have?"
"Me? I have a little deviation in my perception of this world." Shen Youlin raised his arm and shouted: "I'm the king of the world!"
Yushu couldn't help but laugh out loud, and the gloom of the past two days was swept away in an instant.
