“The judge told me that because of the countless lives i saved, my good deeds were boundless,” Lina explained. “I wouldn’t have to face judgment and could directly cross the golden bridge to be reborn as a human, enjoying fifteen lifetimes of prosperity.”

“But 1 remembered our promise,” she continued, a playful glint in her eyes. “So, 1 gave up the next fourteen lifetimes of wealth and chose not to drink Granny Meng’s soup. If 1 had, there was no way 1 could have found you again. How about that? Did 1 keep my promise?”

Old Wang, tears drying up, let out a shaky sigh. “You… you haven’t changed a bit. Still so mischievous.”

A hint of doubt lingered in his voice. “Why didn’t you tell me sooner? I didn’t want to jump to conclusions and think you were… lying.”

“If I had just said 1 was Lina reincarnated,” Lina giggled. “You probably would have thought I was crazy and avoided me, wouldn’t you?”

Old Wang’s face fell. She was right. If the girl had blurted out her past-life connection at the beginning, he likely would have dismissed her as delusional and kept his distance.

“Congratulations on your reunion,” Dr. Chen said, his voice cutting through the emotional moment. “If there are no further questions, I’ll end the call.”

“Wait, Dr. Chen! 1 haven’t paid yet!” Old Wang fumbled for his phone, about to send a payment.

“When you risked your life saving those people,” Chen Yu countered, “did you ask for payment?”

Without waiting for a response, he ended the call.

The revelation of Lina’s sacrifice left a profound impact on the viewers. Just by reading the description, it might be hard to grasp the true value of her decision.

Imagine a life of immense wealth and luxury, lasting a hundred years. A life where you’d face no misfortune, live comfortably with the favor of the ruling power, and be surrounded by a loving family. A peaceful death, free from illness or disaster.

Lina surrendered the glory and ease of a full fourteen lifetimes to be reunited with Old Wang in this one.

Every moment with him became infinitely precious.

“Wow, how much good deed must Lina have done in her past life to deserve such a luxurious fifteen lives?”

“Who cares about wealth?” another countered. “Seeing them reunited makes me believe in love again!”

“This makes death seem less scary,” another chimed in.

However, a new question arose. “Honestly, is giving up the chance of fourteen reincarnations really the price for not drinking Granny Meng’s soup?” some viewers pondered.

The initial wave of elation from the reunion was replaced by confusion as Chen Yu’s next words hung in the air. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Who told you there was love between them?”

His statement stunned the audience. If it wasn’t love, then what was it?

“But Dr. Chen, you compared their relationship to Princess Lucien and Bayion,” a viewer pointed out.

“Exactly!” another agreed. “Why else would Lina give up so much for her past-life memories if it wasn’t love? Plus, she kept pursuing Old Wang, even proposing to him!”

For the first time, the chat disagreed with Chen Yu. Everything seemed to point toward love, from the metaphors to the girl’s relentless pursuit.

“First of all,” Chen Yu said, finally addressing their confusion, “the comparison to Princess Lucien and Bayion was meant to illustrate the price Lina paid, not their romantic relationship.”

“Second, the reason Lina pursued Old Wang goes back to a promise made twenty years ago. During a rescue mission, Lina, a rescue dog, sustained severe injuries protecting Old Wang.”

“As Old Wang prepared to retire, with Lina nearing death, he tearfully hugged her, saying they would be together forever in the next life…”

His words hung heavy in the air, leaving the viewers speechless.

The chat went silent. The revelation that Lina was a rescue dog in her past life left everyone stunned.

“Holy moly! So Lina was a rescue dog in her previous life? 1 almost threw my back out laughing!”

“The mood just did a 180.1 feel like such a clown right now.”

“Forget Yang Buhui, Yin Liting, or the Bitter Love Tree. This is a real-life Legend of the White Snake!”

“Wait, are we sure there aren’t some biological barriers here?”

“Yeah, that makes sense now. No wonder Lina said saving people was her duty. It all makes sense because she was a rescue dog.”

“This isn’t some fantastical fiction; it’s a real-life story happening right before our eyes.”

“Props to the person above!”

“Lovesick person here. I guess I’ll have to wait another lifetime.”

“Hold up, why wait? I’ll just gamble away my karma points for the next fourteen lifetimes!”

Many viewers found humor in the situation, laughing through their tears at their misplaced assumptions. Even praying wouldn’t be enough to regain the imaginary “merit points” they’d jokingly spent on the idea of a romantic relationship.

“See, I told you from the beginning! The girl marrying Old Wang has nothing to do with love.”

“It’s not love, nor is it repayment. It’s simply destiny.”

“Alright, everyone,” Chen Yu said with a faint smile, “let’s welcome our second patient. Please hold for a moment.”

Moments later, the sound of crying filled the livestream.

“Whoa! Now, this is my type!”

“Alright, I’ll come clean. This beauty is single, right? Need a partner?”

“See! This is why the chat is full of lonely men!”

“I’m looking for a girlfriend here! Miss, can 1 get your social media?”

“This feels too good to be true, like a character straight out of a game.”

“Don’t get your hopes up for another crazy situation.”

The arrival of the second caller sparked a frenzy in the chat room.

The screen displayed a beautiful young woman with fair skin, long black hair, and stylish glasses. She wore a cute JK uniform with the online username [Nono, a quitting performer].

Nono’s charming looks immediately attracted a swarm of perverts in the chat. The fact that she’s a quitting performer only added to the amusement of the viewers.

Judging by the background, Nono appeared to be in her bedroom. The room was decorated in light pink, and a collection of cute plushies adorned the bed behind her.

The seasoned viewers, ever the data hounds, began their estimations.

Nono’s age was likely under 25.

She should weigh around 95-100 pounds.

She was approximately 1.7 meters tall, assuming no beauty filters or height manipulation.

Nono greeted Dr. Chen with a slight smile, causing another wave of excitement among the male viewers.

“Good evening, Dr. Chen.”

“Wow, she’s gorgeous! Sweet voice, amazing figure, and those glasses…”

“Hello, dear patient,” Chen Yu replied with a gentle smile. “How can I help you today?”

“Actually, Dr. Chen,” Nono began in her pleasant voice, “this isn’t about me. It’s about my girlfriend. She’s been going through a rough patch lately, and 1 was hoping you could offer some advice. Would that be alright?”

The word “girlfriend” was like a cold bucket of water pouring down on the perverts in the chat.

Their excitement quickly turned into despair.

What kind of cruel world was this?!

All the beautiful flowers were already picked!

At least let it be a guy! But, of course, it had to be another woman!
