Chapter 51: Feng Ru (10)
Chapter 51: Feng Ru (10)
Maybe because he was no longer in a mere trial world, the rate in which he assimilated with He Chen's memories became a lot faster. He did not only dream of 'his' life experiences, but he also saw the villainess' life story which he had already watched briefly before.
Perhaps due to Feng Ru's appearance earlier, his memories of her had been triggered again and were now playing in his mind. The clarity and vividness made him frown in his sleep.
Feng Ru and He Chen did not have many intersections.
Feng Ru died a year before He Chen and the rest entered the same university. However, the university administration hid the news of her tragic demise from the new students, resulting in no one from the current female lead's batch knowing anything about her.
Coincidence or not, she was from the same town where Tang Lan came from. Unlike the female lead's complicated and toxic family circumstances, Feng Ru was neither from a broken family nor a family where one of the parents had cheated on the other and eloped with the adultery partner.
Feng Ru had a loving family, only her mom died before she entered junior high. However, despite this, after the half-a-year-long heartbreak and melancholy and through his father and friends' efforts, she reverted back to being a normal and cute long-haired fair-complexioned little lady. Her world brightened again, and as the simple-minded and optimistic person that she was, she endeavored to share life's beauty to everyone as much as she could.
Feng Ru was an excellent girl - smart, charming, pretty, friendly. She was the type who would definitely grow into someone capable of melting frozen hearts and toppling tall walls of everyone around her. Even those powerful and handsome CEO with the so-called 'dead inside disease' would not be immune to her unending charm and uplifting aura.
In other words, Feng Ru was completely a female lead material, the sunflower and angel type whose smile could light up the world of even those living a monochromatic life.
'She could have been a blessing to many people... If only she didn't die.'
The next part of her tale was quite the shocker, in a speechless way.
The villainess had a close female friend, someone suffering from severe depression. This other girl was from a broken family and was with her mother who used to be living behind the bars; case, accomplice on a murder directed to her husband.
Society was quite a weird one. Just like how a CEO parent's glory was passed down to the offspring, a criminal parent's crimes too, in people's eyes, were certainly inherited by the son or daughter.
Due to this odd mentality of the people around her, the depressed girl lived a tough life. Since she was a girl and her mother was from the same subspecies of humanity, she was viewed as someone with a high tendency to commit evil deeds. Like mother, like daughter, they said.
Bullying, discrimination, and isolation came after as some of the consequences. What people could do to someone they hated or feel superior to could sometimes not be described with words.
Many other reasons pushed that depressed woman past her breaking point. It came to the point that not even Feng Ru's angelic warmth and consoling words could do magic to her. Hence, one rainy night, when the world was cold and the streets deserted, the unthinkable that no one apart from the suffering girl had ever considered regrettably happened.
When tomorrow came, two people were found dead, lying on their semi-dried pool of blood. Feng Ru was one of them.
Footage from the rooftop was recovered and thus it was revealed that it was only the depressed girl who wanted to end her pain through death.
Feng Ru just wanted to save her. But when the heartrending exchanged of words reached its crescendo, it, unfortunately, got to the point where the suicidal friend didn't want nor appreciate the villainess' helping hand anymore. Feng Ru stumbled forward and got dragged off the dorm's rooftop when the other girl jumped down.
As a friend who simply wished to lend a helping hand, her ending had been quite miserable to look at. When those acquainted with her learned of this, they blamed the suicidal classmate again, like they always do.
'Ugh! It's her fault!'
'Why did she have to drag Feng Ru in this? If she wants to die, she should have just done it alone!'
'Yeah! So freakin' distasteful! This is why I don't like her! See, she's really like her murderer mother!'
'She killed Feng Ru! That angelic Feng Ru!'
Feng Ru's kind-hearted soul cried.
These words meant well for the villainess, but because of these that Feng Ru realized, it was the environment around them that resulted in her friend's death.
If only the world was not so judgmental and harsh to those already enduring pain, things would not have ended up this way.
The power of one could not win against the many too. If only she was not the only one advising and trying to help...
After all this kind of thoughts rushed into the despairing villainess, her mind became twisted. Since she could no longer blame the dead, she channeled her anger to the ones around them.
In her mind, it was etched that each who killed themselves did not do so because they wanted to, but because the pain brought to them by the society could no longer be contained.
It was probably because of this that Feng Ru turned into what she was today, a ghostly villainess. She understood the pain of someone under extreme stress and depression hence she wanted to help them tide over it, not caring if her methods were inhumane and out of the physical world's logic.
Anyway, the world was very cruel. As the sole sobered inhabitant of it, why should she refrain from punishing the evil humans who pushed every hurt and innocent soul to commit suicide?
With this belief in mind, the villainess spent the next five years in this world being a busybody consoling suicidal fellows in the university, offering them release and avenging their wounded hearts and souls.
