His voice was devoid of emotion, as if she were just a familiar stranger. Tao Yu instantly became clear-headed, pausing before apologizing: “Sorry, this treatment lasted too long. I haven’t fully withdrawn yet.”
“It’s okay, rest for a bit. Sit,” Yue Linze gestured to the sofa.
Tao Yu assessed her mental state and felt she indeed needed rest, so she thanked him and sat down. The room fell silent. Twenty minutes later, Tao Yu regained her spirit and stood up to politely tell Yue Linze about the previous sub-personality’s death and emergency treatment.
Yue Linze’s eyes darkened slightly as he asked casually: “So, my illness is cured?”
“In principle, yes, but we still need to do a comprehensive check. If it’s confirmed that no residual personalities remain, then this treatment will be considered successful.” As her consciousness withdrew from the mental world, the time perception there would affect her less and less. After twenty minutes of adjustment, she was now much clearer.
Once she began focusing on the real world, she thought about the large commission she was about to receive. Once she got this money, her previous debts would be completely cleared, and if she was lucky, she might even have some left over to treat herself.
Just thinking about these money-related matters made her feel happy.
“You seem happy?” Yue Linze looked at her coldly.
Tao Yu realized she was being too obvious and coughed, saying: “Sorry, I can’t help but be happy thinking about the successful treatment.” This reason was reasonable enough, right?
Yue Linze stared at her, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes: “It seems solving those sub-personalities is indeed something to be happy about.”
“Isn’t it? Mr. Yue will no longer be troubled by those sub-personalities, and I’ve learned a lot in this treatment. It’s the best news recently,” Tao Yu said with a professional smile.
Yue Linze glanced at her: “Oh.”
Tao Yu was stunned, feeling his attitude was somewhat strange. Wasn’t he becoming gentler before? Why was he so cold now?
Tao Yu looked at him questioningly. Yue Linze was silent for a moment, then slowly said: “Dr. Tao has worked hard. Go rest for a bit. As for subsequent treatment, we can discuss it after you’ve rested.”
