The next day, a mentally ill person broke into the orphanage.
He was holding a knife and hacking at the child wildly.
She was originally the target, and she thought it wouldn't be so bad to die like this, but Hua Hua ran over and took the knife for her...
"Hua Hua!" Xiao Su Deng hugged her in disbelief, clutching her wound and wailing. Blood stained her hands red and Hua Hua's clothes red, glaring and burning.
"Hua Hua, don't die! Hua Hua..."
"Dengdeng, we... will be best friends for life..."
Even though she was bleeding and in pain, Huahua was still smiling at her.
Hua Hua loves to laugh.
I always make her laugh along with me.
But this time, she couldn't smile.
"Huahua, don't die!" Xiao Su Deng cried her heart out, "I don't want you to die... don't leave me..."
But Hua Hua closed her smiling eyes and never opened them again.
That time, no one died except for Hua Hua.
She was the one who should have died.
Hua Hua should have been adopted and lived happily ever after.
A new home, new parents, a new name, new clothes, and everything...
Just like in a fairy tale.
But because she stayed behind, she could never open her eyes again.
Later.
She tried to find her relatives with the jade pendant, but all she found were swindlers.
In the blink of an eye, Su Deng seemed to have lived her life all over again.
The pain, torment, and despair of the past...
"Dengdeng, we'll be best friends for life, right?"
Hua Hua reached out her hand to her, her smiling eyes as bright as the sun.
"Hua Hua..." Su Deng reached out her hand, tears welling up and instantly streaming down her face, "I'm sorry..."
Goodbye, Dengdeng.
Just as Su Deng was about to grab her, her figure suddenly vanished.
She seemed to have come to say goodbye.
"What beautiful fairy tales... they're all lies..."
They made a pinky promise to grow up together and be best friends for life.
The headmistress said she would find happiness like a princess in a fairy tale.
But she got nothing...
So many kind people, all of them are dead.
She's a jinx, yet she's living a perfectly good life.
She killed so many people, why does she still live?
"It's all fake...it's all a lie!"
Hua Hua's figure vanished in her hand, a tear slid down Su Deng's cheek, she was distraught, and roared in despair.
The world before my eyes transformed back into a forest, with crimson hues painting the heavens and earth.
She was all alone in the world.
A clear, ethereal voice rose in the utter silence, seemingly lost in the void.
"You finally figured it out?"
Su Deng snapped out of the illusion in an instant, her expression turning stern. "Who!"
A life-sized mirror materialized in the air before her, its surface rippling, and a figure emerged from within it.
Long hair, dark eyes, tall and slender figure, bright eyes and white teeth, stunningly beautiful.
Like looking in a mirror.
Su Deng's pupils constricted, and she took a step back. "Who are you...?"
"Can't you tell?" She touched her pretty face and smiled charmingly, "I am you."
"You are not..."
"Whether it is or not is not important."
The woman interrupted her, her laughter casual and languid, her voice drawn out, "The important thing is that you've realized fairy tales are all lies..."
"Little Red Riding Hood always wears red, not because he likes red, but because the red dress helps him suppress his urge to turn into a wolf..."
"Snow White didn't love the prince, and knowing the apple was poisoned, she still gave it to others..."
"The Little Mermaid came ashore not for love, but to eat people..."
