Chapter 1: All Miserable Truths
The cold and damp air spreads in an abandoned warehouse. Even if Song Qinghuan is wearing an oversize hospital gown, her bloated and obese body can’t be covered.
On the icy floor scatters her black falling hair besides her bare toes. Because her hands are tied behind so that she is unable to resist, she can only make a whimper from her mouth wrapped around by tape.
She lifts her head slightly, so her round face comes forth from the uneven hair that has been cut with scissors. Her big catlike eyes are clear and bright, and as shiny as diamonds after crying.
“My hands are shaking so badly that I can barely hold the scissors now. If you are struggling heavily, it is possible to cut off your shithead instead of your hair.” Song Shuyao says.
Although she says with a smile, the voice in this abandoned warehouse sounds like it’s from a sinister female ghost, infinitely expanding the fear in Song Qinghuan’s heart. The haunting sound of her heavy breath and the rubbing of scissors make her scalp numb.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
At this moment, she can’t tell whether the hot liquid on her face is tear or blood. In the mirror, she can only dimly see a few curved bloody traces on her face where the blood permeates, which are quite appalling.
“Look, you are a porker now. How can he still like you? In which aspect am I not comparable to you? Um?” With her fair fingers grasping Song Qinghuan’s chin, Song Shuyao carefully looks at the face of Song Qinghuan.
The breath coming from her speaking carries a strong smell of wine. At the same time, she uses a pair of scissors’ sharp tip to draw another cut on Song Qinghuan’s face. Then a satisfied smile appears on her delicate face.
Obviously, she is very satisfied with her work.
“Umm…” Song Qinghuan can’t open her mouth or catch the underlying meaning of Song Shuyao’s words. She feels so painful that her body is covered in icy sweat and begins to tremble uncontrollably.
Song Shuyao crouches down suddenly. Using her fingertips to dip the fresh blood on Song Qinghuan’s cheeks, she speaks with a smile: “Do you know why you start to gain weight but fail to lose it even if you have tried each method?”
Song Qinghuan stunningly stares at the person-her older sister, in front of her.
Song Shuyao gives her a charming smile. Her cheeks become red because of the drunkenness. The mixing smell of her perfume and alcohol is very pungent for a time, but it seems that she can not smell it, laughing lightly, speaking gloomily.
Song Shuyao puts in a pitiful tone: “I almost forget, how can you understand it with your stupid brain?”
It seems that she is going to vent all her envy over the years and pours out all the bad things that she has done.
“It’s me. It is my mother who has been giving you a fattening hormone medicine. This is all your fault! Because you always steal my thunder and finally are admitted by Xinghan Conservatory!”
It is a famous first-class university in their country.
“!!”
It is unbelievable for Song Qinghuan. It turns out that she does not underperform in the exam but is replaced by Song Shuyao and her mother!
“Don’t look at me like this, I really hate your eyes!” Song Shuyao fretfully throws the scissors in her hand on the floor and tears the tape wrapped around Song Qinghuan’s mouth quickly. The sudden ripping leads to the bleeding of Song Qinghuan’s lips.
“Why?”
Song Qinghuan frowns uncomfortably when she tries to speak. She does not know what Song Shuyao has given her to drink. Now her voice is hoarse and harsh which is as different as night and day from her angelical voice in the past capturing countless musicians and fans.
Some people often say that God will close a door and open a window for you. After being discarded by the Song family, Song Qinghuan began to cover songs on the Internet in the second semester of her first year in university.
At the beginning, she tried to cover some classic songs and posted them online. It wasn’t long before she became an overnight sensation in ACGN circle for covering a new single of the popular singer.
The song covered by her also began to sweep the lists of popular music players. And fans, musicians and media persons praised her for her natural voice.
When Song Qinghuan thinks that she has found the light at the end of the tunnel, Song Shuyao nipped her hope in the bud again.
Song Shuyao once again captured the success of Song Qinghuan. After the investment and packaging of Song family, she used the voice of Song Qinghuan to release albums and became popular. Because of her obesity and bloated figure, Song Qinghuan, with social phobia, sang for Song Shuyao behind the scenes.
Song Shuyao sneers, “I want to tell you the truth before your death. The reason that you have been discarded by the Song family is you are not a child of this family!”
“Your shameless mom cheated with other men and gave birth to you!”
A mystery puzzling Song Qinghuan for many years comes to light on the day of her 22nd birthday.
In the end, she screws herself up and makes herself a joke. Everyone knows the truth except herself.
Song Qinghuan’s mind is echoing the words and sentences of Song Shuyao. Then she bursts into a forlorn and bitter laughter and even does not notice the leaving of Song Shuyao.
The temperature in this abandoned warehouse begins to rise gradually, and Song Qinghuan is surrounded by fire when she finds it.
Being tied up and with the high fever, she is too dizzy to rescue herself. She lies on the ground and looks straight at her ugly face in the mirror in front of her through her blurred vision.
At this moment, Song Qinghuan hates herself, her own weakness, and the devil who has ruined all her life under the name of close families!
Being reluctant to die quietly and thinking about those evil faces, Song Qinghuan can not wait to tear all of them up!
“Song Qinghuan!”
“Song Qinghuan!”
When she is already unconscious, she hears a familiar voice from outside and thinks she has an auditory hallucination. After a loud bang, water crashes in. The iron gate of the warehouse is broken open, and regardless of the burning fire, a man runs near with anxiety and fear in his eagle eyes. After a while, he finds the burning Song Qinghuan.
With hatred and unwillingness in her mind, Song Qinghuan dies.
