Chapter 484 Not Glorifying the Paths You Haven't Taken
"Wife, wife..."
Huo Chenzhou's voice interrupted Shen Zhixia's thoughts. She looked up and saw Huo Chenzhou looking at her with a worried expression.
Shen Zhixia smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"
Huo Chenzhou picked up a piece of pork rib for her and said, "You've been eating white rice the whole time, eat more vegetables."
Shen Zhixia then realized that her bowl was full of white rice. She had been spacing out and hadn't eaten anything.
She glanced at Huo Chenzhou, and the world before her eyes became real again.
According to the plot, she and Huo Chenzhou were to divorce, and then she was sent to a harsh and cold place, where she eventually died tragically. This was her original ending, but of course she didn't want to go down that path.
She wanted to change that ending, so she didn't get a divorce. She altered the original plot, survived, and achieved a happy ending.
She knew she had transmigrated into a book, and all the characters were from the book, including Huo Chenzhou, who was with her day and night.
But she treated them sincerely. She never treated them as fictional characters. In her eyes, everyone was real and existed in her life. Everything she experienced was real.
She could sense everyone's joys and sorrows, and she could also feel everyone's genuine feelings. She gradually grew to like many of her friends.
How could this be fake?
But when Chen Jinxiu saw those strange characters, she said that this world was fake.
Shen Zhixia wondered if, after she changed the original owner's ending, her story would become another book.
Will someone in another world read this book?
This is yet another world within the book.
Shen Zhixia couldn't quite describe her feelings. She only felt a sense of loss and regret, but she didn't know why.
Huo Chenzhou was the first to notice why Shen Zhixia's mood was off. Shen Zhixia had always been a very optimistic person, and her life was very fulfilling with many things to do every day.
She's acting very strangely today.
After Shen Zhixia left, Huo Chenzhou's face darkened. He summoned several guards and asked, "Go and find out what Shen Jinxiu said to Madam before she died."
"yes."
When Shen Zhixia started making frequent mistakes at work, the factory manager noticed that she wasn't in a good state and let her take a leave of absence to rest.
"No need, I can handle it. It's just that I haven't been feeling very well lately, but I'll adjust," Shen Zhixia said.
Shen Jinxiu's son was sentenced to death. He expressed his dissatisfaction, but his objections were ineffective, and many people were cursing him.
This incident even made it into the local newspaper, and everyone said that Shen Jinxiu's son was a heartless bastard.
This description is quite apt.
No matter what job Shen Jinxiu did, she had to raise her son, but she never expected that this son would eventually take her life.
Zhang Weihong said, "You didn't see it. When Shen Jinxiu's son was sentenced to death, he cried so hard. He kept saying he regretted it, but I didn't see any regret in him. His eyes were full of fear of death."
Shen Zhixia thought that if she hadn't transmigrated back then, she would have been the one who died.
Everyone looks out for themselves; otherwise, they'll be condemned by heaven and earth.
All the misfortunes in her life were caused by Shen Jinxiu. She was just taking back everything that belonged to her. Shen Jinxiu's situation was mostly due to her own actions.
Thinking this to herself, Shen Zhixia felt a strange mix of emotions.
This day.
She had a nightmare.
She dreamt that she divorced Huo Chenzhou and then died in desolation. The dream was so real that even after she died, she could still feel the pain of death. It was a truly terrifying nightmare.
When she woke up, her whole body was trembling.
Huo Chenzhou turned on the light and asked sleepily, "What's wrong?"
Shen Zhixia said, "I had a dream."
She told Huo Chenzhou about her dream, and throughout the whole process, she was still immersed in the terrible dream.
She felt like the dream was real.
yes.
If she hadn't transmigrated, the original owner would have followed this path, wouldn't she?
“I dreamt that I died,” Shen Zhixia said.
Huo Chenzhou was taken aback, then gently patted her back: "This is just a dream. Dreams are always the opposite of reality. You will live a long and healthy life, a hundred years old."
Shen Zhixia asked, "Do you believe in fate?"
Huo Chenzhou: "Hmm?"
"It means that a person's fate is predetermined, everything is set up. For example, this is a book, and the fate of everyone in it is written out. But someone breaks all of this, causing things to go in a different direction."
Shen Zhixia didn't know how to describe it. She had changed the original owner's fate, but she wondered if Huo Chenzhou wanted to change it.
In the original book, Huo Chenzhou and Shen Zhixia divorced. After the divorce, Huo Chenzhou married another woman and had children, leading a happy life. Shen Jinxiu met Huo Chenzhou much later and gave a brief summary of his life.
In short, Huo Chenzhou's life was wonderful, whether he was with her or not.
Did she ever respect Huo Chenzhou's thoughts when she was with him?
Shen Zhixia finally figured out what had been troubling her all along.
"Are you referring to those suddenly appearing words?" Huo Chenzhou suddenly said something surprising: "At first, I thought those words were my imagination, so I didn't pay attention to them. If I had known you cared so much, I should have told you about it sooner."
"Text? Text?" Shen Zhixia asked incredulously, "You can see the comments too?"
right.
It's the bullet comments.
From Shen Jinxiu's words, Shen Zhixia had already guessed that she could see the bullet comments. She didn't know why those bullet comments appeared, but she knew that they were trying to spoil something for them.
But why can't she see those comments?
She didn't know why.
Perhaps those comments were meant to change something, but in the end nothing changed.
Huo Chenzhou said, "Yes, I can see it."
He said, "Shen Jinxiu and I can see the same characters. They float in the air. It's strange. Can you see them too?"
Shen Zhixia, fidgeting, asked, "How do you know that Shen Jinxiu can also see it?"
Huo Chenzhou: "..."
Of course, he found out it himself. He can find out anything he wants to know, but he can't let Shen Zhixia know, otherwise Shen Zhixia will lose trust in him.
When those people found out about the conversation between the two, they just thought Shen Jinxiu was talking nonsense and didn't take it seriously, but Huo Chenzhou knew it was true.
Because such words had appeared before him before.
Huo Chenzhou coughed, avoiding the topic: "In the past, many words appeared in front of me, saying that I would divorce you and then meet other women and marry them."
Shen Zhixia fell silent. As she listened to Huo Chenzhou recount these events, she felt as if she were dreaming. She had thought that only she knew the plot, but it turned out that so many people around her knew it.
Even Huo Chenzhou knew.
Everyone has their own secrets.
Just when she thought she was special, she realized she was wrong.
Huo Chenzhou said, "You've been spacing out these past few days, is it because of this? But that's all in the past, and we can't get a divorce."
Shen Zhixia said, "Have you ever thought about the many possibilities in your life? If you divorce me, you will pursue other women and live a different kind of life, which may be the life you need."
She didn't even know what she was saying. Maybe it was because she was getting older, and she had become more sentimental. But Huo Chenzhou's official partner might be someone even more outstanding, and she might have ruined another path for him.
"I will not embellish a path I have not walked," Huo Chenzhou said.
