Chapter 244 Psychological Imbalance



The Zheng family stood at the edge of the venue watching the show, originally intending to return to their courtyard to help He Yushui seek justice.

This was something Xu Qi and Fu Qingyao had promised Yu Shui, and they couldn't break their promise.

Who would have thought that Xu Damao would repeatedly launch attacks, targeting Zheng Ya, who retorted angrily to Xu Damao.

Xu Damao had already lost his composure when he saw Sha Zhu return safely, but he hadn't lost his mind. He thought that if he provoked Sha Zhu to hit someone, and with Jia Dongxu's help to sow discord, Sha Zhu could beat him up and then he could send Sha Zhu to prison in a legitimate way.

However, Sha Zhu was also guided by Zheng Ya to recognize his own shortcomings and understand the laws of the country. Things are different now, and he can no longer rely on tricks.

All of this was beyond Xu Damao's expectations. Feeling unbalanced, he developed a risky gambling mentality and plotted to have Zheng Ya use his abilities to make him stronger and smarter.

After all, Xu Damao was very smart. Back when Zheng Ya caused the people in the courtyard to suffer retribution, he knew that after Zheng Ya was persecuted to death and brought back to life by Old Lady Yi Zhonghai, he should have the ability to cause people to suffer retribution and learn techniques without anyone knowing.

This is evidenced by Zheng Ya's extraordinary abilities, which include causing retribution to the people in the courtyard and enabling MCA to learn culinary skills in just thirty seconds.

Zheng Ya's previous plan to guide Xu Damao to become a better person made Xu Damao realize it. He thought that Zheng Ya's plan to make him suffer retribution failed, but instead made him as knowledgeable about the law as Zheng Ya and even smarter.

Isn't this a fantastic thing?

Will we become smarter if we do it again?

Xu Damao's thoughts were entirely driven by selfish motives.

In his view, Zheng Ya was not a good person either. It was probably not Zheng Ya's intention to make Bang Geng smarter and more mature, and to guide the children in the courtyard to learn to be good. Rather, it was Zheng Ya's way of getting revenge for Bang Geng, but it backfired.

Therefore, Xu Damao believes that Zheng Ya's abilities are uncontrollable.

It's worth noting that Bang Geng spat on Zheng Ya quite a bit, and even urinated on Zheng Ya's head and body to humiliate him while Jia Dongxu was holding him.

In Xu Damao's view, Zheng Ya could not possibly make Bang Geng better; only severe punishment of Bang Geng would be reasonable.

But Bang Geng has become better, smarter, and more like a little adult?

This gives Xu Damao a signal: Zheng Ya's ability to make people good or bad is uncontrollable, and there is profit to be made from it.

Therefore, Xu Damao subtly provoked Zheng Ya, hoping that Zheng Ya would grant him an ability to make him smarter, or even to develop some kind of special ability.

Little did he know that he was completely mistaken.

As soon as Zheng Ya began to reprimand Xu Damao, Xu Damao replied without fear, "Zheng Ya, don't try to act tough here. I'm not afraid of you."

"Shut up!"

We're in the middle of a meeting, and you're just babbling on and on, wasting everyone's time and deliberately trying to sabotage things?

"Do you admit to this crime or not?" Zheng Ya didn't want to listen to his rambling, and he wasn't in a hurry to punish Xu Damao.

Besides, we haven't figured out how to punish Xu Damao yet, so what kind of experiment should we conduct?

This means "I will not offend others unless they offend me; if they offend me, I will repay them a hundredfold."

Xu Damao, disappointed that he hadn't received any help from him, said, "Fine, you win. Let's start the meeting?"

"Xu Damao, what do you mean I won?"

I knew you were disrupting the proceedings of the conference. You should admit your mistakes. Have you become a eunuch or an idiot?

"Such a simple principle, didn't your father teach you how to admit your mistakes?" Zheng Ya seized every opportunity to teach Xu Damao a lesson.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xu Damao could not afford to make excuses.

Yan Fugui seized the opportunity to stand up and said, "Xu Damao, quickly apologize to everyone, don't waste everyone's time."

Are we waiting for the meeting to start?

"Ah, I, I was wrong, I'm sorry everyone..." Xu Damao blushed with humiliation and bowed to the people in the courtyard to apologize.

When it was Zheng Ya's turn, he gritted his teeth and put on a provocative face. Zheng Ya laughed: "Xu Damao, today I'll teach you a lesson."

I can earn tens of thousands of dollars in a minute, and you wasted twelve minutes of my time?

Considering we're all neighbors in the same building, I'll give you a discount; just compensate me 100,000 yuan..."

"Zheng Ya, are you robbing a bank?"

"It's barely dark, and you're already dreaming? You think you're so great?" Xu Damao roared angrily, causing everyone in the courtyard to burst into laughter. "You've finally met your match!"

After he finished rambling, Zheng Ya sneered, "You really have no manners and no class."

I was interrupted before I could finish speaking. Did your father teach you manners?

"Zheng Ya, stop talking nonsense. It's not your place to teach me. What do you want me to do?" Xu Damao knew that delaying would only be detrimental to him.

Who could blame Zheng Ya for having the support of everyone in the courtyard?

He couldn't defy the public's anger; he had no choice but to yield.

Unless you move out of this courtyard, you won't have to submit to the people in the courtyard?

Otherwise, if you see them all the time and they target you at every turn, you won't be able to live like this.

Moreover, if people in the compound unite to label someone, undermine unity, cause sabotage, or make them suspected of being enemy agents, who can withstand that?

That's a crime that can cost a person their life!

Seeing that he had given in, Zheng Ya laughed and said, "Everyone in the courtyard knows that I am a very particular person. I am a born spendthrift. I don't love money, but I love the happiness of others."

In this way, I don't need to pay you 100,000 yuan in compensation. You can give each household 10 yuan, and this matter will be over.

"Da Mao, I'm doing this for your own good. You won't object, will you?"

"Damn it, you're really ruthless!"

There are 23 households in the whole compound. If each household pays 10 yuan, that's 230 yuan, which is almost as much as my annual salary!

"Isn't this still robbing a bank?" Xu Damao roared in anger, still trying to provoke Zheng Ya into using his abilities on him.

But he was overthinking it. Zheng Ya would never publicly bestow abilities upon someone again, except for moments of sudden enlightenment. Instead, he smiled and said, "Eleven yuan..."

"Zheng Ya, you've gone too far..."

"Twelve pieces?"

"I... I'll give it to you, okay?" Xu Damao cried in anger. This was clearly a call for the entire hospital to put pressure on him, making it impossible for him not to give it to them.

Sha Zhu gave him a thumbs-up and praised, "Xu Damao, you're really something, so generous, you even rushed to bring the money home..."

"Shazhu, you still haven't paid me back..." Xu Damao was furious and stormed up to Shazhu, yelling at him.

If I can't provoke Zheng Ya to exert his power on me, can't I at least provoke you, you idiot, to beat me up? And you want me to send you to jail?

Unfortunately, Sha Zhu crossed his arms and said cheerfully, "You're wasting everyone's time again. I suggest raising the price..."

"Damn it, I'm not playing anymore, boohoo!" Xu Damao cried in anger, turned around and left. It was too much of a bullying.

They've all become smarter!

You end up losing two or three hundred yuan just by playing this game!

Yan Fugui wouldn't let him leave: "Xu Damao, find a place to sit down and have a meeting. Leaving the meeting without permission is disorganization, lack of discipline, and disrupting the collective..."

"Dig the grass, you're all so good, you're all so good, I'm in a meeting, sob sob..." Xu Damao cried helplessly, his mental state spiraling to the point of collapse...
