The sunlight poured in through the window, and Shengxia couldn't help squinting her eyes.
Her long black hair was scattered on the pillow like ink. Shengxia took a deep breath. She never thought that the moment of her death would be on such a sunny day. Did God also think that she deserved to die?
She could not hide the severe pain in her body, but at this moment she seemed to feel no pain, staring blankly at the sunny sky outside the window.
At first, she didn't know she was dead.
As usual, she dragged her frail body downstairs to buy food. When she came back, she saw that the neighbors around her seemed to have heard some news. They all poked their heads out from the cracks in the broken door, covering their noses with disgusted expressions and saying something, "It's so unlucky. What if the demolition compensation is missing?"
All the residential areas in their area are going to be demolished. I heard that the developer is the Junhe Group that emerged some time ago. I didn’t expect that Qin Ge’s business has grown so big.
Shengxia carried her things upstairs and saw a circle of police officers in front of her rental house.
Shengxia's first reaction was to run. She had become almost a rat crossing the street over the years. The landlord came to her house every day to urge her to pay the rent. She thought these policemen were the landlord who finally couldn't stand it anymore and called the police to arrest her.
Before running, she subconsciously glanced through the crack in the door. Just that one glance, and her legs felt like they were filled with lead and she couldn't move.
A doctor stood in the living room, wearing gloves and examining a body on the sofa.
The doctor traced a long scar on the corpse's abdomen. "Another one who risked her life for money. Her left kidney is gone. The cause of death was an infection in her wound, which rotted away. But her body functions were already damaged before this, and she wouldn't have lived much longer."
"I found her ID."
A young policeman found Shengxia's ID card in the bedroom and said, "So her name is Shengxia. Look, she used to be such a bright and beautiful girl, looking like a celebrity. It's such a pity that she died..."
Shengxia looked at the corpse on the sofa, wearing the same tattered clothes as her own. The stench of decay filled her nose, making her feel both scared and disgusted.
Shengxia reached out to touch it, but unexpectedly her hand penetrated the corpse on the sofa. She suddenly realized that the corpse was herself.
She is dead.
When did she become so weird?
Her short life of more than twenty years can be summed up in one sentence: if you don't seek death, you won't die.
Shengxia's parents divorced when she was young, and her mother left her to her father, but her father turned around and married another woman and abandoned Shengxia.
Although Shengxia was sent back to her hometown, she grew up with her grandparents in the county town. She never lacked food and clothing, and was spoiled to no end.
When she was a teenager, her father suddenly had a change of heart and took her to the city. However, Shengxia's pride and rebelliousness got the better of her. If her stepmother didn't agree with her, she would overturn the table. Her stepmother hated her.
Shengxia also hated the mother and daughter very much. Later, her father couldn't stand it anymore, so he sent her back to her hometown and never cared about her again.
Everyone said Shengxia was too stupid and ruined her family, but she didn't care at all.
Later, she met Qin Ge, and Qin Ge's appearance completely let Sheng Xia let go of herself. She never learned how to write the word "low-key" in her life.
......
In a downtown funeral home, Shengxia sat bored on her own urn. Her ashes remain unclaimed.
She laughed self-deprecatingly. This was probably the price she paid for leaving Qin Ge without looking back. The internet was right: those who betrayed their sincerity had to swallow ten thousand needles. Now, she didn't have to swallow any more, and all she had left was a little ash.
She looked at her reflection in the glass. Her skin had returned to its previous fair color. She had regained her twenty-year-old appearance. Unfortunately, this year was the stupidest year of her life.
This year she felt that Qin Ge was controlling her too strictly. He didn't allow her to go to bars, nightclubs, or play cards with her friends. In order to escape from Qin Ge's control, she began to seek an outlet for venting.
While Qin Ge was away on business, she went to a nightclub and booked the whole place, opened bottles of expensive wine, and indulged herself in it, feeling that this was freedom.
Actually, she and Qin Ge had known each other since they were seventeen years old. At that time, she had a quarrel with her grandmother and lived in the dormitory in anger.
She had been spoiled since she was a child and fell in love with Qin Ge at first sight, and launched a strong offensive against him.
But she was not someone who would give in. She started by finding fault with Qin Ge, but later she found that although he was a quiet person, he was still a good person. Later, Qin Ge was finally conquered by Shengxia, and the teenagers completed the great harmony of exploring physical health at home.
She and Qin Ge have been together since she was nineteen, and until she was twenty-four, she had been with Qin Ge for a full five years.
In the past five years, she watched Qin Ge make his way from an apprentice to building one of the top real estate companies in Hai City.
And she was completely spoiled. If she didn't want to study, she wouldn't study. She had no ability to resist risks at all and relied entirely on Qin Ge to support her.
Qin Ge never treated her badly in terms of material things.
Even her friends sighed that she was lucky. Despite having such a bad temper, she was able to catch Qin Ge, a potential stock, so early.
But only Shengxia knows the truth, Qin Ge is a very reserved person with a strong possessive and controlling desire.
For Shengxia, who was used to a relaxed life, this kind of life was suffocating for her. She was a hedonist by nature. Faced with Qin Ge's high-pressure control, she frequently went to nightclubs.
It happened that something happened in Qin Ge's company at that time and he had no time to take care of her. She took this opportunity to meet an 18th-tier singer.
The young singer graduated from a music college and is witty and humorous, forming a sharp contrast with the taciturn and controlling man at home.
Shengxia slowly fell in love with him. She lied to Qin Ge that she was going to watch a concert in another city, but in fact she was spending Qin Ge's money to take the little singer on a trip.
Until the little singer said that he wanted to take her to live in another city, Shengxia was already being strictly controlled by Qin Ge and was longing for it.
So Shengxia did the stupidest thing in her life. She stole Qin Ge's savings, made a fake ID, and ran away with the little singer.
Since then, she never saw Qin Ge again, nor heard any news about Qin Ge. It was only later when she saw a calm man being interviewed by a financial reporter on TV that she realized that this man was Qin Ge.
Unfortunately, the midsummer at that time was gone. The little singer squandered all the money she had stolen from Qin Ge. When he learned that she had no money, he would beat her to death after getting drunk.
Later, after being beaten so badly that her mind was no longer clear, she would often sit by the window in a daze for the entire day, unable to distinguish between day and night.
