Chapter 117 Zheng Tian hits Zheng's mother, who gave you permission to say that?

"Mrs. Zheng, you're here. Please rest assured, Zheng Tian's recovery is going well. It is estimated that in about a week, he should be able to be discharged from the Hospital."

Seeing her arrive, the doctor subconsciously assumed she had come to inquire about Zheng Tian's recovery status. Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zheng shook her head.

"I came here to ask if there's any way for us to check for things like depression? I feel that my son has been having some emotional problems lately. Just now, I asked him if he needed psychological counseling, and he refused outright."

Upon hearing this, the doctor frowned. During this period, he had heard from the Nurses that Zheng Tian's emotions were quite unstable. Last time, just because the Nurses came to give him an injection and happened to chat a bit—and they weren't even talking to Zheng Tian—it made Zheng Tian extremely angry, and he slapped them directly.

"Zheng Tian's emotions are currently quite unstable; you certainly cannot speak to him directly like that. I am not a specialized Psychologist, so how about this: I will contact a doctor from the psychiatry department and see if they have any better solutions?"

"Okay."

About 20 minutes later, a doctor arrived in the consulting room; this doctor was from the psychiatry department.

After briefly explaining the current situation to him, the doctor nodded, indicating he understood.

"This situation is actually not that troublesome. Currently, we do have some technical means to examine the brain and probe the patient's brain waves. By analyzing these brain waves, we can corroborate the patient's emotional issues. In that case, let's arrange for this examination tomorrow morning. However, we cannot let the patient find out, so we can arrange for some blood tests or similar procedures alongside it."

The doctor was quite professional and immediately offered his suggestion. Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zheng nodded. She felt that, as things stood, this was likely the best approach; at the very least, it could be hidden from her son, and if there really were any problems, they could prescribe the right medicine.

"Okay, no problem. I'll leave it to you then."

"It's nothing; this is what we should do. After all, being responsible for the patient has always been our principle as doctors."

After finalizing this, Mrs. Zheng returned to the ward. At this moment, Zheng Tian's face was dark and uncertain. It was clear that his current emotional state was truly too pathological. In ancient times, some eunuchs would have twisted psyches due to their physical deformities; this was considered a relatively normal occurrence.

"Xiao Tian, I just asked the doctor, and he said your recovery has been good during this period. Let's have a follow-up examination tomorrow. If there are no major issues after the follow-up, we can be discharged in a week. Is there anywhere you'd like to go? Mom will accompany you."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Tian shook his head. He didn't want to go anywhere right now because he felt that no matter where he went, people would look at him with strange eyes, as if he were a monkey in a park.

"I'm not in the mood."

Hearing this, Mrs. Zheng sighed. She didn't know what she should say now, so she simply said nothing at all.

Just then, Zheng Tian picked up the phone he had just thrown on the floor and started looking at it. After all, there were no other entertainment activities in the Hospital now, so Zheng Tian could only look at his phone.

The Zheng family was now ignored by everyone in their circle. Zheng Tian's former friends no longer contacted him at all, because the current Zheng Tian could not provide them with any resources or benefits. Moreover, his reputation had rotted to such an extent that if they continued to associate with him, they might very well be mistaken by others as being the same kind of person. Therefore, everyone now avoided Zheng Tian like the plague.

Just at this moment, Zheng Tian suddenly scrolled across a post in his social media feed.

"What's going on with Zheng Jie and Zhou Ya?"

When he saw a friend post a photo of the two of them together, Zheng Tian's tone was full of curiosity, because in his memory, these two didn't seem to have any relationship at all.

"What else could it be? It just means that these two are about to get married; it's probably a business marriage."

When Zheng Tian heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. In his view, no matter who Zheng Jie was with, as long as it wasn't Su Qiaoer, it was fine. If those two were actually together, it would make him look like a clown. But looking at it now, he didn't have to worry about that possibility at all.

"Alright, son, stop looking at your phone. Relax properly. After we get out, Mom will also get you..."

Originally, Mrs. Zheng was prepared to say she would arrange for a girl to be with him, but thinking of his current situation, she felt that if these words came out, it would definitely trigger him, so she quickly stopped herself.

Zheng Tian was no fool. Although the sentence wasn't finished, he understood what was coming next. Therefore, his emotions exploded once again. He could not accept anyone bringing up such matters in front of him, because he felt that whoever mentioned this was subjecting him to extreme humiliation. So, in his rage, he started throwing things around again, and this time, he directly smashed his phone onto Mrs. Zheng's eye.

The next second, her forehead swelled up immediately. Mrs. Zheng let out a cry and immediately covered her eye because it was truly too painful. The Nurses outside heard the sounds coming from the ward and realized something was wrong, so they quickly ran over. When they arrived, they saw Mrs. Zheng covering her eye with blood streaming down from it. Upon seeing this scene, their hearts skipped a beat.

"Doctor, Doctor!"

"Take her to the treatment room, quickly!"

The Nurses hurried to say that the eye could be said to be the most fragile part of a person; an injury to it was a major, serious matter. Therefore, under these circumstances, the Nurses rushed her to the treatment room, not daring to waste any time. If she were to go blind, that would be a huge problem.

At this moment, Mrs. Zheng felt a complex mix of emotions. She hadn't expected that the son she loved most would actually hit her. Although she understood that her son was emotionally unstable, the moment such a thing happened, no matter the reason, she couldn't bring herself to accept it.
