I Tell Fortunes in a Mental Hospital While Waiting for Ascension

Lu Yao was once a powerful National Seer, but due to a conspiracy, she was suppressed for a thousand years by nine soul-镇魂碑 (soul-suppressing steles).

Upon awakening, she became a "...

Chapter 51 A Gift of Fate

Fan Boren glanced at Zhang Siyu subconsciously.

He saw his birth mother looking at him with tears in her eyes, her gaze full of expectation.

A bead of cold sweat involuntarily slid down his forehead, and his back was instantly soaked.

"Doctor, I... I need to go to the restroom first."

After stammering through his words, Fan Boren made a hasty retreat, hiding in the toilet in a panic.

He leaned against the toilet wall, his heart pounding wildly in his chest.

After calming down, he couldn't wait to take out his phone.

"Host, host, please do another divination for me. If I go for a transplant, will it be successful?"

Fan Boren's voice trembled.

Lu Yao answered without hesitation: "It will succeed."

This answer struck Fan Boren's heart like a heavy hammer.

He gasped, his face turning deathly pale. "Ah!?"

Before receiving confirmation and a definite answer from Lu Yao, Fan Boren still harbored a sliver of naive hope.

It would be good if the match didn't work.

That way, he can fully express his filial piety to his family and show his self-blame and regret when the match was not right.

This way, one can avoid donating a kidney and still maintain their image within the family.

But now the anchor is making a firm prediction: if she says the match is successful, then it will definitely be successful.

This left Fan Boren feeling desperate.

He's only in his early twenties; his life has endless possibilities.

Having just become a second-generation rich kid, he hasn't even had a chance to enjoy a luxurious life yet.

He simply couldn't imagine spending the rest of his life with only one kidney.

[Holy crap, this really proves what the streamer meant when he said, "Misfortune and fortune are intertwined"!]

[He was laughing so hard he almost died, but his smugness didn't last long before he was dumbfounded.]

"Then, host, what should I do now?" Fan Boren was panicked and at a loss, his voice almost pleading, "Master Millennium, you know everything and understand everything, please show me the way!"

Lu Yao shook her head slightly and looked calmly at Fan Boren. "You can refuse to donate a kidney. No one can force you; that's illegal."

Upon hearing this, Fan Boren immediately became anxious. "I've been away from home for over twenty years and I'm not close to my parents. If I refuse, how will they treat me?"

Lu Yao said calmly, "Then you should agree to give your kidney to your father, and you will definitely become his most beloved child."

“But…” Fan Boren hesitated.

Lu Yao looked at Fan Boren and said, "Every gift of fate comes with a price tag. Whatever choice you make, you will have to pay a certain price."

If you want to continue enjoying the privileged life of a rich second-generation and live a life of luxury for the rest of your life, then you have no choice but to obey your parents' arrangements and obediently donate your kidney.

If you want to live a long and healthy life and refuse to donate a kidney, you will inevitably face the cold shoulder of your parents and be rejected by the family you have just joined.

[This was truly spectacular; it was a wonderful opportunity to witness this grand test of humanity up close.]

[Since Lai Cai is already called Lai Cai, I think the answer is obvious, but it's really heartbreaking.]

Fan Boren stood frozen in place, like a statue.

The previously lively chat in the live stream gradually quieted down.

Everyone held their breath, waiting quietly for him to make a decision.

After a long time, Fan Boren finally made up his mind.

He gritted his teeth, his voice filled with struggle and pain, and said, word by word, "For the past twenty years, I've lived a life where I had to be stingy even when ordering takeout or buying game skins. Now that I've finally escaped that life, I don't want to live like that anymore."

Fan Boren's voice was resolute.

After saying that, he resolutely turned around, pushed open the door, and walked out.

He walked towards Zhang Siyu, a fawning smile on his face, and said sincerely, "Mom, Dad is sick, and it's my duty to help. I'll get a tissue match with Dad today."

A hint of relief flashed in Zhang Siyu's eyes, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

Lu Yao watched this scene quietly and then cut off the connection.

From the moment she first saw Fan Boren, she already knew what was about to happen and anticipated that he would make such a choice today.

...

While Fan Boren and Fan Pingwei, a married couple, were staging this dramatic family drama in the hospital.

On the other hand, Fan Huaiyuan, the fake young master who was kicked out of his home, found himself caught in a plot reminiscent of the classic female-oriented drama, "The Real and the Fake Heiress."

The only difference is that the protagonist's gender is reversed.

Fan Huaiyuan couldn't understand why his peaceful life had suddenly turned upside down.

Previously, his older sister, Fan Yueke, was obsessed with novels about real and fake heiresses, and he would laugh at her.

How could normal parents neglect their own flesh and blood and instead shower all their love on a fake child who has usurped their place?

Now that the same thing is happening to him, he can't accept it at all.

Were all those days and nights spent with Fan's parents, all those laughter and tender care, just a lie?

How can a 22-year-old family bond be severed so easily?

On the day he was kicked out of his home, only Fan Yueke came to see him off.

Fan Yueke stood at the door, her face showing a hint of sympathy, but also a touch of schadenfreude.

"Brother, your prediction was indeed very accurate. It seems our parents were normal parents."

Fan Huaiyuan responded with a wry smile: "Life is indeed different from novels."

"Don't be discouraged, brother. You've built up a lot of connections through your time living with us. When a novel gets to this point, there's usually a devoted male lead who comes out to save the fake heiress."

Fan Yueke doesn't know the pain until she cuts herself, and she's still in the mood to joke.

Fan Huaiyuan was speechless for a moment, then said irritably, "Your most urgent task right now is to uninstall Tomato Novels."

He is already an adult, so there are no additional procedures to go through.

Helpless, he picked up his luggage and left the Fan family alone.

He arrived at a familiar hotel in a daze, dragging his heavy steps, and checked in at the front desk.

A familiar voice came from behind him, calling his name: "Brother Huaiyuan?"

Fan Huaiyuan subconsciously turned around and saw Lu Kangning, the apple of the Lu family's eye.

The Lu family and the Fan family have always maintained close ties.

Fan Huaiyuan is seven years older than Lu Kangning, and he has watched Lu Kangning grow from a little girl with a ponytail into the graceful young woman she is today.

At this moment, Lu Kangning was with a group of girls who were also dressed exquisitely and meticulously.

They were wearing sparkly little dresses, probably there for a party at the hotel.

Lu Kangning looked at the luggage at Fan Huaiyuan's feet, a hint of doubt flashing in her big eyes, "Brother Huaiyuan, did you have a fight with your family and run away from home?"

Fan Huaiyuan's face flushed when he heard the question, and he looked somewhat embarrassed.

He kept his background a secret, not wanting others to know about his humiliating experience of being kicked out of his home.

So he mumbled, "It's a bit contradictory."

She didn't know if Lu Kangning believed her, but she smiled with concern and said, "Brother Huaiyuan, if you've suffered any injustice, you can come to me."

"You little rascal... good, good." Fan Huaiyuan couldn't help but chuckle, feeling that he was truly finding joy in hardship.

After arriving in the room, Fan Huaiyuan lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, and belatedly realized what was happening.

Could Lu Kangning be the "deeply affectionate male lead" in Fan Yueke's mind, like in a novel, to save her, the "fake heiress"?

Thinking of this, he gave a bitter smile.
