Chapter 4 Suicide

Bo Yan appeared out of nowhere, the usual smile she always saw from him completely lost from his face as his cold stare turned into one of murderous intent. "Eh, argh... Brother Bo Yan, why are you here?" Shen Rou staggered back in panic with a hand over her mouth, reeling in disbelief from Bo Yan's sudden appearance. The bags under Bo Yan's eyes became more prominent, illustrating the building rush of emotion that swirled violently inside him. Shen Rou had always been the one girl he wanted to marry. She vanished on the night before the wedding, and the Shen Family had no other choice but to offer Shen Zhiwei as a replacement. Everything had been part of Shen Zhiwei's meticulous scheme! The thought that he had walked down the aisle with this woman when his sweetheart Shen Rou was being savagely violated again and again only brought him pain and regret... "It's all my fault, my precious Rou. I should have kept you from harm myself." "No..." Shen Rou bit her lip, her head shaking as her eyes glistened with moisture. She dashed out to the balcony, crying in anguish. "No, it's not your fault. If it's anyone's fault, it's mine. I'm tainted. I'm soiled. I'm now unworthy to be your wife! You even have a baby now with Sister Zhiwei... I... I'll see you again in the next life..." "NOOO..." Bo Yan's expression changed into complete surprise, the bags below his eyes now a dark pall of gloom as his heart raced to the point of nearly bursting. Shen Rou swallowed hard and said nothing, her frail body shivering when the cold and steely winds brushed harshly by. All it would take was another strong gust of wind, and she could just fall off the ledge. The veins on Bo Yan's temple bulged and throbbed with anxiety. He wanted so much to go near and hold her, but he was equally afraid that he might frighten her. Keeping his emotions in check, he murmured gently. "Please, my precious Rou. It's dangerous there. Please come down. I can never dislike you. Please, listen to me! Just come down, all right?" Shen Zhiwei could have sworn that she had never once seen him so afraid and flustered. The one who made him so was the woman named Shen Rou. It was just the difference between being loved or not—it was as simple as that. "Please, Rou, please. You need to calm down. Don't you want Mommy anymore? Mommy has been waiting three long years for you. Please! God! What sin have I done to deserve such punishment?!" Zhou Jin sobbed and cried with tremendous pain and sorrow. Suddenly, she knelt in front of Shen Zhiwei, banging her head on the floor, "Please, Zhiwei, Mommy begs you! Please! Say something to her! Ask her to come down! Look what have you done to her! She's now mad and insane after you had those men kidnap and rape her! She's wounded now! She'll never be able to pry Bo Yan away from you anymore..." Bo Yan's pupils shrunk sharply as he wheeled around to regard Shen Zhiwei coldly. "YOU! THINK OF SOMETHING TO GET HER DOWN THIS INSTANT!" "She's only feigning her madness... I dare say she wouldn't dare jump..." "YOU STILL WANT TO SEE YOUR SON, DON'T YOU!?" Bo Yan shouted. He reached out his arm and grabbed her shoulders firmly before he violently shook her back and forth, "If anything, anything happens to Rou... I swear... I swear you and your wretched son will pay!" Shen Zhiwei nearly fell to the ground, and she had barely steadied herself when she heard the threat. She felt herself suffocating as if an invisible hand was clasping her throat. "Does the baby belong only to me and not him? Does he not realize that the son is also his? Shen Zhiwei grieved. "Are our lives so cheap and worthless?" Joyful rays of sunlight from the bright blue skies outside sprinkled through the window into the room, yet Shen Zhiwei felt as if she had fallen off the edge of a cliff and plunged into a dark abyss so cold that her insides froze over, and she could hardly climb out. The pain in her abdomen intensified, and she could only try to stretch herself to ease her discomfort as she inched closer towards Shen Rou. "What are you waiting for? Just toss yourself off the ledge and be done with it! Isn't that what you're trying to do? To prove yourself innocent?" "SHEN ZHIWEI! HOW DARE YOU..." "What? I dare. You can just go off and die to become nothing but a heap of bones, while I shall remain the great and exalted Mrs. Bo—the envy and adoration of everyone." Shen Zhiwei regarded Shen Rou with a cold smirk as she went on sneering, "You reap what you sow. You being abducted and gang-raped... You're no better than your dearest mother. The homewrecker who forced herself into my home and destroyed my family... You got what you deserved..." "ARRRGGGHH!" Shen Rou grew livid as fury blazed in her eyes. She lunged toward Shen Zhiwei like a madwoman, yanking and tearing at her hair and banging her head on the ground with the ferocity of a raging beast. Blood streamed down Shen Zhiwei's forehead and blurred her vision. She wanted to fight back, but the urge to defend herself only worsened her dizziness the more she wished to get up, and before she could, she felt something tearing in her abdomen—the wound must have ripped open due to her vigorous movements. In her pain, she could feel Shen Rou bending down to whisper in the cold—a faint and cold voice that only they could hear. "I'm impressed, Shen Zhiwei. You really are the sister who grew up with me. You really saw through my ruse, didn't you? You knew I only wanted to torment you, so you served yourself up on a silver platter. But what do you hope to achieve? Look, I need only stand on the ledge of the balcony and Bo Yan would do anything for me. Anything. From now on, you're the one responsible for the string of misfortunes that had befallen me! Hahahahaha!" Shen Zhiwei felt as if her head was going to burst, yet she managed to hiss through sheer will. "You'd be wise to keep him to watch over you forever... or else... Urgh!" A foot slammed into her chest before she could finish. She fell crashing back like a ragdoll. Bo Yan withdrew his long, slender leg, and he bent down to lift Shen Rou up in his arms. He murmured lovingly to her, "I should be the one to say sorry. I should have been there to protect you. Instead, I've married the one person responsible for all the pain that you've gone through!" Saying nothing, Shen Rou dug herself into his chest, biting her lips as she sobbed. Without even a look of concern for his wife, Bo Yan turned and steered Shen Rou away with him. Shen Zhiwei watched him leave without even turning to look at her. Tasting the salt of her blood in her mouth and using her sleeves, she dabbed at the blood trickling out her mouth. What a pair of flirts!
