Empathy refers to children's experience of similar emotional responses to others when they are aware of the emotional responses of others.

——Excerpt from "Child Developmental Psychology"

So what if a child is not born with this capacity for empathy?

…………

Chi Mu's mind was blank, Xie Bufu on the white hospital bed was completely different from usual, his lips were white and chapped, his cheeks were blushing strangely, without the contrast of his usual aura, he looked a little fragile.

Chi Mu rarely sees him like this.Because of insisting on exercising and regular work and rest, Xie Bufu seldom gets sick, and even when he is sick, it is not obvious, and he can still talk and laugh with him.

For the first time, he felt omnipotent and no longer an ordinary person.

Chi Mu couldn't breathe under the pressure of pity and guilt in his heart, he grabbed the left hand that no longer had a needle, and couldn't help apologizing: "I'm sorry..." There was no time for him to repent, so Mu Yanyan called him out.

Chi Mu: "Mom, tell me what's the matter, wake up soon!"

Mu Yanyan was angry from her heart: "Why did you go so early? Why are you in a hurry now? Not anymore, but I caught a cold after waiting for you all night."

At this time, Chi Mu couldn't say that he had sent a text message, so he just responded blindly.

Mu Yanyan: "Find a safe... or here... No, I'd better find a safe place, I have something important to tell you."

Chi Mu frowned: "What is so important that we can't wait until Fu Fu wakes up?"

Mu Yanyan: "It's just not going to happen again."

Chi Mu felt something in her heart, and stared at her mother intently.

…………

"...doesn't have the ability to empathize, and the ability to empathize and empathize is close to none, which leads to a certain degree of emotional cognitive impairment, and a slight tendency to anti-social personality." Zhi Man's voice has always been cold, and it is even more impressive at this moment. A sense of callousness.

Chi Mu couldn't believe it: "Impossible! Aunt Xie, I must have made a mistake!"

Zhi Man was unmoved, and shattered his fantasy word by word: "We found something wrong when he was five years old. This is the result of our first test with him."

Chi Mu: "Five years old! I don't even know what test he took!"

Zhi Man sighed: "Xiao Mu, I know it's hard for you to accept, because you grew up with Bufu, isn't he like this in front of you? But he is like this when he's not in front of you."

Xie Lin also looked dignified, and handed him a piece of information: "This is...the most recent treatment record."

Chi Mu felt a huge concealed shame and anger, he didn't answer, but just looked around at the four elders with similar faces: "You all know, you only keep it from me?"

Chi Ziye's face was gloomy: "Look at your appearance, you still can't stand it, how can I tell you?"

Chi Mu choked, flipping through the folder angrily.

[The patient's empathy ability has not progressed, and the fake personality is strongly aggressive, so further testing is not recommended.The patient's self-awareness has increased significantly with age, and the desire for control is so strong that it cannot be tested. From the perspective of daily performance, once stimulated, there will be serious consequences.

Remarks: Patients will disguise themselves in front of specific objects, because they can live a normal life because of their excellent intelligence, but it should be noted that once the willingness to pretend to be connected to a specific object disappears, it is very likely to cause personality collapse. 】

A few "patients" stared carelessly. Chi Mu read it several times and still couldn't associate this word with the always powerful and beautiful Xie Bufu.

Zhi Man said softly: "We are not qualified to be parents. We didn't find out the abnormality until we were no longer five years old and looked at the injured kitten indifferently and asked for help. Afterwards, we also treated according to the doctor's suggestion, but ...No progress." Zhi Man continued: "He is completely different in front of you, like an ordinary child, who can share, play and take care of others. Didn't you find it? He does everything easily, because He had a superior intellect, whereas God took away his empathy."

Chi Mu: "No... He doesn't do everything easily..." Tears rushed out of his eyes, and he couldn't help himself.

"How, how...hard...to get along with us...how restrained he is...to be in front of me...for so long..."

Thinking of this, Chi Mu's heart hurts like a knife.

Just lost control for a while, Chi Mu quickly controlled her emotions in front of her elders: "What else? Tell me."

Zhi Man and Mu Yanyan looked at each other, the latter coughed and motioned for her to speak.

Mu Yanyan: "Which step have you...uh... lost track of?"

Chi Mu: "Why do you ask this suddenly? We... are in a relationship." For some reason, he felt a little guilty, and his voice became lower and lower.

Mu Yanyan: "What?! We're talking about it? So fast!"

Chi Mu puffed her chest out, confidently: "If you like each other, why don't you hurry up and spend time together?"

Mu Yanyan: "No, you, you, aren't you enlightened?"

Chi Mu: "It's just a matter of a moment, but liking is liking, what else can I do, I admit it."

Seeing this, Zhi Man knew that they would not know where they were going wrong in a while, so she forcibly changed the focus: "Ahem, this is the question I want to talk to you next."

"Do you think I don't really like you anymore?"

Chi Mu was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Zhi Man explained: "Because it is basically impossible to empathize with other people's emotions, do you think he will feel in love with a person? Children learn how to love people from their parents' love for him. Although it is no longer my son, but Sometimes I can't help but wonder, does he really know how to love?"

Aunt Xie's words were like a ten-level typhoon that tore his thoughts to pieces.

Zhi Man: "I can no longer only feel his self, so he will have a strong desire to possess what belongs to him. Does he really like you, or does he regard you as his possession just because he grew up together?"

Chi Mu looked at Aunt Xie blankly, as if this was the only way to find something to rely on.

Zhi Man turned slightly to the side, which was actually an evasive movement: "I...as a mother, I hope my child will be like a normal person, so I let him approach you... Chi Mu, Auntie, I want to say sorry to you."

Chi Mu: "No, no, no, don't apologize! Aunt Xie, I'm the one who is bothering you."

Mu Yanyan jumped out at the same time: "Manman, don't say that! It's all my idea!"

Chi Mu: "Mom???"

Mu Yanyan faltered: "I thought it was normal not to be with you anymore, so I told your aunt that we can raise the two of you together. Anyway, we don't know how to raise children."

Chi Mu: Is it because I don't want to raise it, mother!

Mu Yanyan forcibly exonerated: "Aren't you well-raised?"

Chi Mu: "It's all thanks to Fu Fu!"

Mu Yanyan: "All right, all right, you can say anything about being handsome."

Seeing that his father was about to say a few words, Chi Mu screamed: "My little heart~ Aunt, Uncle, Mom and Dad, let me slow down~"

Chi Ziye paused, and said angrily, "I'll give you 10 minutes, and I'll talk about you later."

Chi Mu ran away with her head in her arms, feeling that she urgently needed a loving hug again.

Seeing Chi Mu walk away, the adults breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhi Man said while thinking, speaking slowly: "Xiao Mu...that's really good."

Mu Yanyan: "Hey, you don't know that this little bastard can kill people sometimes."

Xie Lin's thoughts were in sync with his wife's, and she followed her words: "Actually, Manman has been very worried that Xiaomu won't be able to accept it. If he is not of my race, his heart must be different. Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen are still husband and wife She was really scared to death, no longer among ordinary people, she is a different kind."

"We can accept him and love him, it is the nature of parent-child. Xiaomu is different. His first reaction after learning about it is not the fear of no longer pretending, not the disgust of being deceived, but the empathy and sadness. To be able to meet Xiao Mu is no longer so lucky."

Seeing that the rest of the people were thinking, Xie Lin couldn't help but continued: "So we are good at art, and lovers should love like this~"

Chi Ziye couldn't bear it any longer: "Shut up, you, I don't seem to have settled with you for your instigating Chi Mu to report to the Art Department?"

Xie Lin turned pale with shock: "Who am I, where am I, and what am I doing? Why don't I seem to remember anything?"

Zhi Man's expression relaxed, her lips curled up slightly, and her cold eyes turned into autumn waves.
