âCelebrityâŚâ Ye Lun muttered under his breath.
âYes, your identity is just a celebrity. Iâm sure you know better how a celebrity stands in the hearts of the public. In no time, they will forget about you. All of your wifey fans, die-hard fans, they will have another new idol. There will be even more good-looking celebrities that will appear and attract their attention. The only place that you will be remembered is in the dossiers kept in the police archives department.â
âAnd we, the people that you hate, will live happily. We will get married, have children and our story will continue from there. We will have offspring who will come to pay their respects every year after we die. We wonât have an ending. This is because our story will never end.â
Like a silkworm wrapped in its cocoon, he was weak and tired.
âThe flash drive, the password is⌠skgmefhom9432.â
His eyes gradually lost focus.
âIf you have⌠the courage, just look at it⌠look at itâŚâ
It was suddenly quiet inside the ward.
There was still no sound after a while.
Xiang Wan gazed at Ye Lun.
âI still have things to ask you.â
Ye Lun didnât answer, as though he didnât hear anything.
âYe Lun, donât pretend to be dead.â Xiang Wanâs eyes became a little red.
At this moment, she didnât feel any better, although she had her revenge on Ye Lun by mocking him. She still felt a stinging sensation in her nose.
âSomeone like you wonât die so easily. Stop avoiding this. There are still so many thingsâŚâ
Ye Lun still didnât make a sound.
Xiang Wanâs eyebrows creased together tightly. Although she felt terrible inside, she didnât forget her responsibility.
âFirst question, why did Heavenâs Wrath abandon you? Was it because they were unhappy with your performance?â
âSecond, do you know who is the new executor that Heavenâs Wrath has chosen?â
âThird, why and how is Heavenâs Wrath so concerned and well-informed about Cui Ming, Bai Muchuan, Xie Wanwan and even my past? Are any of us related to Heavenâs Wrath?â
âFourth, where is Xie Wanwanâs kid?â
âFifth, is your mom still alive? Where is she? And your dad, Wei Gang, do you want him to go to your funeral?â
âSixth, sixth, let me think of what else to ask youâŚâ
Although she was thinking hard, she was actually still in a confused state of mind.
â⌠In fact.â Ye Lun suddenly opened his mouth, his voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible.
Xiang Wan was startled for a moment. She stood up and bent over, ears close to his mouth.
Ye Lunâs eyes were closed. âMy momâsâŚâ he muttered softly, âdead for a long time. She couldnât remember me. Donât take drugs, donât⌠my dad, donât need to come. I couldnât, go to his funeral anyway.â
He spoke in bits and pieces.
Xiang Wan listened with difficulty.
She didnât dare to interrupt him.
âXie Wanwanâs kid died shortly after she gave birth. The photo, itâs fake, photoshopped according to Xie Wanwanâs looks. Hurhur⌠hurhurhur⌠she didnât look the same in the past.â
Why didnât she think of it back then?
The impact of seeing the photoshopped kid in the picture was so great that none of them remembered Xie Wanwan didnât use to look the way she was now.
It was especially overwhelming for Xie Wanwan as she knew she had a kid before. When she saw the picture of the child, she went crazy. It didnât come across her mind that she had looked different in the past. Even if she had thought of this⌠although she had cosmetic surgery, her basic features were still there.
This was where Ye Lun was really good at.
He could grasp exactly how Xie Wanwan would react.
He knew how a mom would react.
Xie Wanwan had felt guilt towards her dead kid.
âYouâre really cruel,â remarked Xiang Wan, âbut youâre really something to have thought of this. So, Iâm even more puzzled that youâre such a talent when it comes to planning conspiracies, why did Heavenâs Wrath abandon you? Even if Operation Heavenâs Wrath failed, they shouldnât have given you up⌠Besides, Operation Heavenâs Wrath isnât a complete failure. Although you didnât achieve your goals, the impact is still big enough.â
For a good while, he said nothing.
Xiang Wan was taken aback.
She reached out a finger to check Ye Lunâs noseâŚ
âIâm not dead.â Ye Lun suddenly spoke, Xiang Wan quickly took her hand back.
There were sounds coming from Ye Lunâs throat like there was some phlegm stuck in there. His usual alluring voice became deep, hoarse and unclear.
âIâm the one⌠who gave up on them.â
Xiang Wan stared at him with a baffled look.
In order to hear him clearly, she had to go closer to him.
So close that she could see the tiny hairs on his face.
âWhy did you give them up?â
Ye Lunâs eyes moved but he couldnât open his eyes. â⌠The ones that I wanted to kill,â he mumbled, âthey donât want me to kill. Those that I donât want to kill, they wanted them dead.â
So they had different thoughts?
Xiang Wan: âSo who do you want to kill? Who do they want to kill?â
Ye Lunâs consciousness gradually weakened.
Without a clear mind to support him, he seemed to talk without much sense.
âBai Muchuan, Xiang Wan.â
Huh? So who wanted to kill who?
Xiang Wanâs heart was filled with questions.
âSo they wanted to kill Bai Muchuan or you wanted to kill Bai Muchuan? Or they wanted to kill me, orâŚâ
No, Ye Lun didnât want to kill her.
Xiang Wan was shocked and wanted to ask when she heard Ye Lun mumbling. âTeacher XiangâŚâ
â⌠It wasnât my first time seeing you⌠at the âPalaceâ. The first was through a surveillance camera⌠Cui Ming had been spying on you⌠Your rented apartment, your schools, you dropping out of college, it was all plotted by him.â
That micro spy camera was found on the door of her tiny rented apartmentâŚ
Xiang Wan felt goosebumps all over and recalled about her schooling days.
âIf Cui Ming had been plotting against me, why didnât he kill me?â
She asked but Ye Lun didnât reply to her.
He seemed to have lost his ability to think. She was unable to communicate with him.
He was thinking about what he had done, what he had experienced in his life. He was thinking about his painful and misfortunate life. He couldnât hear what Xiang Wan was saying at all.
âTell me. Qin Shu, how did he die?â
ââŚâ Xiang Wan found herself speechless.
He asked that question again.
She was unable to answer that.
Ye Lun didnât require a reply either.
He was immersed in his thoughts, in his scattered mind. He was no different from a wandering soul. His body was no longer under his control as he made a final farewell to his body.
âTeacher Xiang⌠youâll⌠let me⌠survive till the last chapter, alright?â
âYe Lun?â Xiang Wan looked at his dry, seemingly thirsty lips.
âPlease⌠pleaseâŚâ His condition was deteriorating.
âYe Lun?â Xiang Wan called his name lightly. âWhy do you mind this?â
â⌠nobody loved me⌠just let⌠everyone hate meâŚâ
Xiang Wan looked at his face which got paler and puffed a sigh.
âYe Lun, youâre too obstinate. Cui Ming and Meng Chi, even Cheng Zheng, youâre no different from them⌠but thereâs no need to live like that. If you fall down, just get up and you can continue to walk. If something doesnât work out, then try other ways or even find something else to do⌠I wasnât happy when I was young but Iâve always believed that I have the ability to achieve my happiness. Itâs the same for Bai Muchuan as well, and he could still live a forthright life till today.â
Xiang Wan heaved a deep sigh.
âWeâre only humans! Hatred is an innate ability but love is something that we have to learn. Do you understand?â
The room was stuffy, not a trace of wind to be felt.
The patient on the hospital bed no longer had any reaction.
So the purpose of Ye Lun wanting to see her was not to provoke her but ask her to write him in her novel - Murder The Dream Guy and survive till the last chapter. He wanted to be just like Qin Shu, who was also a genius when it comes to plotting conspiracies. He wanted to be hated as well as admired. He wanted to become a character, whether in a movie or a drama series where a handsome young man would be cast as his character⌠and not be like his actual ending where he was accidentally killed by a woman. He didnât want to be a supporting character in the story.
A child who lived like a puppet since young.
He needed attention and love but was controlled until he grew up to an adult. He couldnât get the things he wanted.
But now, he was relieved of his unfortunate life.
The doctor and nurses rushed into the ward.
Bai Muchuan, Cheng Zheng, Ding Yifan and others also came in.
The doctor tried to revive him.
However, there was only a straight line on the ECG monitor.
The doctor shook his head at Bai Muchuan.
Bai Muchuan nodded his head and stayed at his spot.
Everyone stared at the man who just passed on without making a sound.
The nurses started to remove all the tubes on him. The life support which had kept him alive was no longer of use.
What Ye Lun did was atrocious and vicious. It could even be said that he deserved to die.
However, humans were naturally compassionate to one another.
Even if he was a wicked man, everything ended the moment he was dead.
His evil deeds would be sealed forever in the criminal records as reference. But his fate⌠was after all, closely linked to theirs.
The natural disaster which started everything 19 years ago. And the Special Training School that was filled with sins and evil.
These two stories, or rather, two tragic incidents⌠caused countless people many suffering and sad endings.
They were similar to dominoes, falling down one after anotherâŚ
Ding Yifan was the first to break the silence.
âWhat did Ye Lun tell you?â
Xiang Wan looked at Bai Muchuan.
After a momentâs hesitation, she quietly handed her phone over to him.
âGo back first, then watch it.â
