Chapter 331: Shen Yanhui commits suicide
The news of Shen Yanhui's suicide reached Xie Zhaoyuan's ears late at night three days later.
At that time, Xie Zhaoyuan had just prepared a gift for Shen Yanhui when he was suddenly told by Pei Xingzhi that Shen Yanhui had committed suicide.
The word "suicide" was too unfamiliar, and Xie Zhaoyuan had no way of connecting it with Shen Yanhui.
She didn't believe that Shen Yanhui would commit suicide, and even more so didn't believe that Shen Yanhui would die, until she saw Shen Yanhui's stiff, pale body in the funeral home.
"She committed suicide by burning charcoal. When Uncle Shen found her, she was already dead." Jiang Mian hugged Xie Zhaoyuan's shoulders and told him the cause of Shen Yanhui's death with a heartache.
"She left a suicide note at home. The last sentence of the note was, 'Xie Zhaoyuan had just come out of confinement when she was kidnapped and imprisoned by Qin Wushuang for half a month. She has not recovered physically and mentally yet. Don't let her see how I died, or she will be scared.'"
"So, we will notify you last."
"...Why?" Xie Zhaoyuan leaned on the side of the coffin, looking at Shen Yanhui who was lying quietly inside in a daze.
Shen Yanhui closed his eyes obediently, with a peaceful expression as if he was asleep. If she wasn't sleeping in a cold coffin, Xie Zhaoyuan really wouldn't believe that she was dead.
"Why?" Xie Zhaoyuan's legs went weak and his body fell uncontrollably.
"Why did you want to commit suicide?" She leaned on the edge of the coffin with both hands, supported by Pei Xingzhi and Jiang Mian. "Shen Yanhui, didn't you say you wanted to travel around the world and settle down somewhere close to the sea? Why did you commit suicide without telling me?"
"What on earth happened to you? Why can't you survive?"
She did not cry loudly, nor did she shout in despair. She stood obediently beside the coffin, like a helpless child who could not find the answer. She wiped her tears in grievance and questioned Shen Yanhui with sobs.
But Shen Yanhui would never speak to her again.
"Shen Yanhui, why don't you want to live anymore?" She was so anxious that she pounded on the coffin, her eyes filled with tears.
"I just prepared a gift for you, why did you commit suicide? Didn't you say you would keep in touch with me? You lied to me..."
"Zhao Zhao." Song Yihan wiped the tears from her face, walked to Xie Zhaoyuan and held her arm, "Zhao Zhao, Xiao Shen left you a letter. She may have written down everything you can't figure out in the letter. Do you want to take a look now?"
"The letter..." Xie Zhaoyuan sniffed and turned to look at Song Yihan, "Where is the letter?"
Song Yihan took out a pink envelope from his coat pocket: "Here's the letter."
Xie Zhaoyuan snatched the letter, wiped the tears from his face hastily, hid the envelope in his arms and planned to go to the corner to read it.
Pei Xingzhi held her in his arms and walked with her to an empty corner.
Walking to a corner, she slowly sat down next to Pei Xingzhi, then carefully took out the envelope, but suddenly saw a line of words in the lower right corner of the envelope.
——This is a letter to Xie Zhaoyuan! No one else is allowed to dismantle it! !Whoever demolishes it is a dog!
Just one line of words perfectly reflects Shen Yanhui's boldness and willfulness. Xie Zhaoyuan's tears, which had just stopped, burst out again in an instant.
"Ayuan..." Pei Xingzhi felt distressed when he saw her but didn't know how to comfort her. He could only wipe away the tears from her face with his palms again and again.
She bit her lips, forcing herself not to cry, then slowly opened the envelope and took out the letter that Shen Yanhui had written to her.
There were several sheets of letter paper, and Shen Yanhui wrote a lot of words to her.
Xie Zhaoyuan personally wrote:
I'm sorry, Xiaoyuan, please forgive me for lying to you. I can't leave.
This program is one with me. If I want to destroy her, I can only destroy myself first, but I don’t have the courage to tell the truth in front of you. I'm afraid you will feel guilty and won't be able to accept it.
In fact, my time travel was not an accident, but was intentional by the program. She was attracted by Qin Song's body, so she used me as a shield and brought me across. My purpose of coming here was not to complete any mission, nor to conquer Pei Xingzhi, but to create an opportunity for her to successfully obtain Qin Song's body.
But the prerequisite is that your soul must leave Qin Song's body, that is, die.
If she had asked me to find a way to kill you when I had just come here, I might have gritted my teeth and done it, but now you are my friend, my best friend here, and I really can't bear to see you become her victim.
I have also tried to stop her in various ways, but all methods ultimately lead to two paths.
Either you die, or I die.
I came to this world with a mission. If I fail to complete the mission, I will be killed by the system. The key to completing the mission lies in Pei Xingzhi. Only by making Pei Xingzhi fall in love with me can I complete the mission and leave here. But obviously, this is impossible.
Pei Xingzhi only has you in his heart and eyes, how could he fall in love with me? My mission was doomed to fail the moment you crossed over, and my life also began to countdown at that moment.
My death was predetermined, but your death was just to satisfy her selfish desires. Even if I split my brain and cooperate with her to kill you in order to complete the mission, I still can't conquer Pei Xingzhi, and I can't escape the fate of being wiped out by the system. So I finally decided to just end this chaotic and hopeless mission and die early to be reborn.
But the date of death I chose for myself at the beginning was not that early. I didn’t want to leave so soon and wanted to stay with you friends for more time. But unfortunately she was not honest.
In order to force me to obey her orders, she began to use her privileges to control my body, making me take off my clothes in front of Pei Xingzhi and a group of men until I was completely naked.
I couldn't stand this kind of humiliation, so I decided to die early.
During the time when I lost contact with the outside world, I actually didn't go anywhere. Instead, I stayed at home and had the final showdown with her. When you came to see me, I was hiding in the living room. I heard you crying outside and I heard you scolding me outside. I really wanted to come out and talk back, but I was in such a miserable state at that time that I didn't dare to see anyone. I could only hide like a mouse until you and Pei Xingzhi left.
Xie Zhaoyuan, becoming friends with you is the most unexpected and happiest thing that has happened to me since I came here. When you hear the news of my death, please don't be too sad, because I feel a great sense of accomplishment in my heart for saving you!
All good things must come to an end. Even the best of friends will eventually part ways. Just think of me as being too hasty to part ways.
Don’t be sad, don’t feel pressured, just live well with my love in mind.
When Xiangxiang is old enough to remember, you must remember to tell him that his godmother is Shen Yanhui. After all, I gave him such a big pure gold safety lock when he was born!
Well, that’s enough of my farewell words. If possible, I hope you can design a set of super beautiful jewelry for me personally. I have always wanted it.
——Shen Yanhui is finally free.
After reading Shen Yan's reply, Xie Zhaoyuan completely broke down in tears.
She folded the thin pieces of letter paper carefully, then held them tightly in her arms, stroking them gently with her palms and crying silently with her mouth open.
"Ayuan..." Pei Xingzhi touched her face, and pressed her into his arms with heartache, letting her head rest on his shoulder.
She cried until her whole body was shaking. She was in extreme pain, but she couldn't make a sound. Pei Xingzhi held her for a while and immediately realized something was wrong.
"Ayuan." He patted Xie Zhaoyuan's face and said to her anxiously, "If you are sad, cry out loud, don't hold it in."
Xie Zhaoyuan also wanted to cry out loud, but her throat seemed to be blocked by cotton and she couldn't make a sound no matter what.
"Ayuan!" Pei Xingzhi was a little panicked. He slapped Xie Zhaoyuan's face a few more times. Seeing that Xie Zhaoyuan's face had turned red and she couldn't make a sound, he grabbed her hand in desperation and bit her wrist hard.
The intense pain pierced into Xie Zhaoyuan's heart like a needle. Xie Zhaoyuan trembled all over, and his spasmodic throat finally made a sound.
"ah!!"
“Ahhhh!!!”
Even though it was a howl of despair, it was better than making no sound at all.
"It's okay, it's okay..." Pei Xingzhi hugged her again and patted her back with his palms. "It's okay, Ayuan. Just cry it out. You won't feel bad if you cry."
Xie Zhaoyuan couldn't speak and could only grab his clothes and cry until his heart ached and his voice became hoarse.
The snow was still falling outside, and goose-feather-like snowflakes were floating all over the sky.
The New Year is approaching, but Shen Yanhui has left.
