Avoid the Protagonist - Chapter 2: Same Name (2)
Upon hearing the newcomer’s voice, Lin Hui immediately turned around and saw Xin Siyue, who had a fierce and murderous expression. The man quickly raised his hand and blocked the glass bottle.
Xin Siyue huffed and once again advanced, but the bottle was soon snatched from her hand directly.
“Xin Siyue, you’re insane!”
“Yes, I’m definitely insane! I was crazy for treating you like a human being!” She always thought that she had found hope in the low valley, but in the end, all her hope was placed on a scum worse than a beast!
“Well, if I’m not human, then you’re certainly no different! Who in Shengjin city doesn’t know how shameless and cheap you were when you chased Chen Sinan? In the end, you’ve been thrown away like trash…”
“Yes! Just as you want to smash my head, I also want to throw you away!”
Xin Siyue glanced at the despicable woman who was wrapping herself in a bathrobe by the bedside, obviously enjoying their drama on the sidelines. At such a sight, her temper rose again and she lifted her hand to slap Lin Hui on the face.
The man gritted his teeth and cursed at the ‘mad woman’ who wanted to retaliate. He raised the glass bottle and smashed it against her head without any remorse.
As the crisp sound of shattering reverberated, Xin Siyue could only hear a buzz in her head.
As she slowly fell, she saw many scenes in her mind, frame by frame. She recalled her college days when she relentlessly chased after Chen Sinan despite his cold rejection. She thought of her parents and brother who died tragically. Those days, she was once that bright, carefree and arrogant girl who had all the delicacies and clothing…
However, none of these will ever return.
Before dying, she heard that disgusting woman speak with a concerned voice: “Oh no, you killed your wife–”
“What are you afraid of, help me tidy up the scene! Remember, she slipped and fell on her own and her head hit the bottle. Then she bled so much that she died! You better not talk too much, or else you won’t get away with it…”
Before the last of Xin Siyue’s consciousness disappeared, she simply felt that her retribution this lifetime was truly deserved, and thus, had no regrets dying. After all, what’s the use of regret? Xin Siyue couldn’t have Chen Sinan for herself. She wanted to tear apart that Sheng Wenyang, but as a result, that woman ended up in a wedding dress while she herself was forced to walk the road to hell.
‘This is the end of my life. Maybe not long after, no one will remember my existence.” –End of story.
After reading the ending, Xin Siyue sighed heavily and closed the book solemnly. For some reason, she only felt as if her heart weighed down.
After work that afternoon, she visited the bookstore to find a romance novel to read. Upon discovering a novel whose villainess shared the same name as hers, she immediately opened its pages and began reading in excitement.
She just never expected the ending to be so tragic.
Most of the plot consisted of intense, dog-blooded drama. Sheng Wenyang, the novel’s female protagonist, started out as an ordinary girl. Because of her excellent academic performance, exceptional temperament, and her many chance encounters with the male protagonist, they gradually began to develop feelings towards each other. However, the woman prioritized her career ambition; Sheng Wenyang had always hoped to break free of the world’s traditions and become equally matched with her man by gaining the strength to withstand the wind and storm of the business world. Thus, she leaves Chen Sinan and goes abroad without saying a word.
After Xin Siyue meets the male protagonist and falls in love with him at first sight, she tries every means to win his heart. Whenever the opportunity presented itself, she would deliberately approach him. However, for these few years up until the female protagonist’s return, Xin Siyue never managed to catch the man’s sight.
Unable to stand for this, the villainess pointed all her spears at the female protagonist, setting up traps everywhere while abusing her. Naturally, Sheng Wenyang, with her main character halo, always managed to escape danger with the help of the male protagonist. The couple’s feelings would grow deeper with time, while Chen Sinan would come to abhor the villainess even more.
