“Celebrity…” Ye Lun muttered under his breath.

“Yes, your identity is just a celebrity. I’m sure you know better how a celebrity stands in the hearts of the public. In no time, they will forget about you. All of your wifey fans, die-hard fans, they will have another new idol. There will be even more good-looking celebrities that will appear and attract their attention. The only place that you will be remembered is in the dossiers kept in the police archives department.”

“And we, the people that you hate, will live happily. We will get married, have children and our story will continue from there. We will have offspring who will come to pay their respects every year after we die. We won’t have an ending. This is because our story will never end.”

Ye Lun didn’t move…

Like a silkworm wrapped in its cocoon, he was weak and tired.

“The flash drive, the password is… skgmefhom9432.”

His eyes gradually lost focus.

“If you have… the courage, just look at it… look at it…”

It was suddenly quiet inside the ward.

There was still no sound after a while.

Xiang Wan gazed at Ye Lun.

“I still have things to ask you.”

Ye Lun didn’t answer, as though he didn’t hear anything.

“Ye Lun, don’t pretend to be dead.” Xiang Wan’s eyes became a little red.

At this moment, she didn’t feel any better, although she had her revenge on Ye Lun by mocking him. She still felt a stinging sensation in her nose.

“Someone like you won’t die so easily. Stop avoiding this. There are still so many things…”

Ye Lun still didn’t make a sound.

Xiang Wan’s eyebrows creased together tightly. Although she felt terrible inside, she didn’t forget her responsibility.

“First question, why did Heaven’s Wrath abandon you? Was it because they were unhappy with your performance?”

“Second, do you know who is the new executor that Heaven’s Wrath has chosen?”

“Third, why and how is Heaven’s Wrath so concerned and well-informed about Cui Ming, Bai Muchuan, Xie Wanwan and even my past? Are any of us related to Heaven’s Wrath?”

“Fourth, where is Xie Wanwan’s kid?”

“Fifth, is your mom still alive? Where is she? And your dad, Wei Gang, do you want him to go to your funeral?”

“Sixth, sixth, let me think of what else to ask you…”

Although she was thinking hard, she was actually still in a confused state of mind.

“… In fact.” Ye Lun suddenly opened his mouth, his voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible.

Xiang Wan was startled for a moment. She stood up and bent over, ears close to his mouth.

Ye Lun’s eyes were closed. “My mom’s…” he muttered softly, “dead for a long time. She couldn’t remember me. Don’t take drugs, don’t… my dad, don’t need to come. I couldn’t, go to his funeral anyway.”

He spoke in bits and pieces.

Here and there.

Xiang Wan listened with difficulty.

She didn’t dare to interrupt him.

“Xie Wanwan’s kid died shortly after she gave birth. The photo, it’s fake, photoshopped according to Xie Wanwan’s looks. Hurhur… hurhurhur… she didn’t look the same in the past.”

Xiang Wan: “…”

Yeah!

Why didn’t she think of it back then?

The impact of seeing the photoshopped kid in the picture was so great that none of them remembered Xie Wanwan didn’t use to look the way she was now.

It was especially overwhelming for Xie Wanwan as she knew she had a kid before. When she saw the picture of the child, she went crazy. It didn’t come across her mind that she had looked different in the past. Even if she had thought of this… although she had cosmetic surgery, her basic features were still there.

This was where Ye Lun was really good at.

He could grasp exactly how Xie Wanwan would react.

He knew how a mom would react.

Xie Wanwan had felt guilt towards her dead kid.

“You’re really cruel,” remarked Xiang Wan, “but you’re really something to have thought of this. So, I’m even more puzzled that you’re such a talent when it comes to planning conspiracies, why did Heaven’s Wrath abandon you? Even if Operation Heaven’s Wrath failed, they shouldn’t have given you up… Besides, Operation Heaven’s Wrath isn’t a complete failure. Although you didn’t achieve your goals, the impact is still big enough.”

Ye Lun didn’t move.

For a good while, he said nothing.

Xiang Wan was taken aback.

She reached out a finger to check Ye Lun’s nose…

“I’m not dead.” Ye Lun suddenly spoke, Xiang Wan quickly took her hand back.

There were sounds coming from Ye Lun’s throat like there was some phlegm stuck in there. His usual alluring voice became deep, hoarse and unclear.

“I’m the one… who gave up on them.”

Eh?

Xiang Wan stared at him with a baffled look.

In order to hear him clearly, she had to go closer to him.

So close that she could see the tiny hairs on his face.

“Why did you give them up?”

Ye Lun’s eyes moved but he couldn’t open his eyes. “… The ones that I wanted to kill,” he mumbled, “they don’t want me to kill. Those that I don’t want to kill, they wanted them dead.”

So they had different thoughts?

Xiang Wan: “So who do you want to kill? Who do they want to kill?”

Ye Lun’s consciousness gradually weakened.

Without a clear mind to support him, he seemed to talk without much sense.

“Bai Muchuan, Xiang Wan.”

“…”

Huh? So who wanted to kill who?
