My name is Gu Xiaochen.
The first time I met Shi Ning was in the basement of Dark Night's headquarters.
There were many dog cages there, and handsome men and beautiful women were kept in cages just like dogs.
Shi Ning was locked in the cage next to mine.
She is very beautiful and has fair skin.
In this dark, filthy place, like a beast's den, she was as white as snow, making people want to touch her, to make her as filthy as he was.
When she looked at me, her eyes immediately reddened, and tears fell.
She looked at me, her voice trembling with tears, and asked, "Does it hurt a lot?"
Yes.
At that time, I had just been whipped by my father while hanging up, and my whole body was covered in bruises, with blood at the corner of my mouth.
I saw heartache in Shi Ning's eyes, heartache that came from the bottom of her heart.
Shi Ning reached out her hand as if to touch me, but I dodged it.
With a sob in her voice, she said, "I just want to hug you, a hug will make the pain go away."
I don't believe Shi Ning.
She's probably just like all those other women who came before her; she believes those fools and thinks that because I'm Gu Tingguo's son, she can leave this place by currying favor with me.
How could that be?
I was born because my mother used methods to get pregnant and castrated my father.
My father loathed me and hated me, but he didn't want to die without a family line, so he abused me to make me grow up.
Those who try to please me will only suffer more and die even faster.
Shi Ning, you're so stupid.
But while I was asleep, she still hugged my arm through the cage and cried silently, saying sorry and that a hug would make the pain go away.
However, those scalding tears, dripping onto the wound on my arm, only made the pain worse.
It hurt so much I wanted to push her away and tell her to get lost.
Ke Shi Ning cried silently, her shoulders shaking with sobs, until she finally fell asleep, tears still clinging to the corners of her eyes.
I couldn't push her away.
She was feeling sorry for me and was crying for me, wasn't she?
At that moment, I felt that this place wasn't so dark after all, and that life wasn't so meaningless.
Shi Ning was like a ray of sunshine, quietly and gently tearing through the darkness and illuminating my world.
The next day, Shi Ning was taken away by those people.
When Shi Ning returned, she had more wounds on her body, as well as more gauze, disinfectant, and hemostatic powder.
Those people even gave them a bigger dog cage and locked her and me together.
Shi Ning disinfected my wound, applied hemostatic powder, and bandaged it.
Did she use herself to change his medicine?
How can she be so good!
When Shi Ning applied the medicine to my face, she said, "It really looks like it."
Then, she covered her face and cried her heart out, crying until she vomited and eventually fainted.
That kind of grief was so intense that even just thinking about it made his heart ache.
But he didn't know what to do, so he could only quietly stay by her side.
All I could do was prevent those people from touching Shi Ning. Every time, I would go out in her place and come back covered in bruises.
I'll do anything as long as she's alright.
Shi Ning cried when she saw me.
Then they told me that we all had to live well, and that Shen Xizhou and Shi Qingyin would come to rescue us.
This is the first time I've heard their names.
I asked Shi Ning who they were.
Shi Ning was beaming with happiness as she said that Shen Xizhou was her boyfriend who loved her very much, and Shi Qingyin was her younger sister who respected her very much.
They will do anything to rescue her.
Later, she told them a lot about them.
She told me to live, and I listened quietly.
She said I really looked like one, like a very well-behaved puppy.
Having been raised in a dog cage and called a bastard, I hate it when people call me a puppy.
But when Shi Ning said it, it was a compliment, and I liked it very much and was very happy.
We waited together for Shen Xizhou and Shi Qingyin to come and rescue us.
but……
Shi Ning was killed before they could come to her rescue.
My father first beat me until I was almost dead, barely able to move. Then he made me watch how Shi Ning was killed. In front of me, he personally cut her body into pieces.
Shi Ning is dead, and I don't want to live anymore.
But I have to live.
I started to please my father, I started to get close to my father, and I also killed my father.
Finally, I learned why my father suddenly killed Shi Ning.
It turns out that Shen Xizhou told Shi Qingyin and her father that Shi Ning killed Shui Qianlan and that he wanted to avenge Shui Qianlan!
It turns out that the person Shi Ning had been hoping to save was the one who killed her.
On the day she died, Shen Xizhou and Shi Qingyin were outside, watching Shi Ning being killed and dismembered through the surveillance cameras.
I hate it, but I'm dead too.
But I was reborn.
No, it wasn't a simple rebirth; it was the Book Spirit who gave me a rebirth.
The spirit of the book was born from the millions of readers who felt sorry for them and spoke out for them.
In my second life, I am Gu Xiaochen, and also a book spirit. I have my mission, which is to change Shi Ning's fate.
I want her to live, I want her to live happily.
I listened to Shuling and tried to please my father earlier, and came into contact with the Dark Night earlier, even if it meant having a listening chip implanted in me from a young age.
I also hoped that Shi Ning would love me, so I started to learn Shen Xizhou's attire and movements. Over the course of ten years, I learned to resemble him by about 80%.
finally.
I saw Shi Ning again, and I also saw Qin Heye.
At that moment, I realized that when she said I looked like Shen Xizhou, she didn't mean I looked like a puppy.
Rather, I mean that I am like Qin Heye.
I should hate her, but I can't bear to let her go.
My original intention has always been for her to live, to live happily.
As long as she feels happy, it doesn't matter whether the person by her side is me or Qin Heye.
But Shen Xizhou and Shi Qingyin both deserve to die, otherwise she would never be able to live a peaceful and happy life.
Everything remains the same.
Listen to your father, take Shen Xizhou away, and cooperate with Shen Xizhou...
In the end, I still killed my father and Shen Xizhou.
But, unexpectedly, Shen Xizhou died, and Shi Ning's eyes went blind.
This is the price of defying fate!
The world in the book collapsed.
Only by restoring this world can we achieve this.
Since I am a book spirit, only I can repair it.
I asked Tang Ruozhu for help to repair this world that had collapsed halfway.
But I don't want Shi Ning to know these things.
Let her pretend I'm still alive.
I want her to have no psychological burden, to forget about me, and to live happily and peacefully.
If Shi Ning is well, then I am well.
