Chapter 25 – I Am Coming to Help You
“Haha…” With a sad smile, Wen Ya sorrowfully said, “Even though you managed to save me, so what? As someone in the depths of sorrow and ready to commit suicide, you can save me but once, twice maybe. You cannot save me for my entire life.”
Suo Jia furrowed his eyebrows in confusion, and replied without understanding, “Why do you need to die? Isn’t it better to be alive? If you pass away, you will never be able to see your mother again. Won’t she be lonely in this world?”
Wen Ya couldn’t help but tremble at Suo Jia’s words, as streams of tears poured down her face. She shook her head and said, “I am an insult as a daughter, a failure. I cannot continue to live like this.”
Suo Jia, seeing Wen Ya distressed and heartbroken, hesitantly added, “I don’t understand the situation all too well. What exactly has made you want to stop living? Can you talk to me about it?”
Slightly glancing over at Suo Jia, pulled out a handkerchief and wiped at the tears on her face. She replied emotionlessly, “You really can’t tell by looking can you? This person in front of you is as fat and stupid as a pig, and yet she is the Holy Light City’s Fourth Prince’s most beloved. Because of that, she is shame not only to the royal family, but to all the city’s residents as well!”
The woman looked with disgust at the rings and rings of fat encircling her body. With a downtrodden look, she said, “I hate the way I am right now. I just can’t live life while being so fat and so stupid!”
The woman’s eyes revealed a perplexed expression. Stroking her face while dreaming about the past, she said: “There was a time, long ago, when I was beautiful. Really, you could say I was extremely proud of my beauty. Heh! I was the most beautiful woman, whomever you asked would agree.
The woman’s expression suddenly changed: “However, ever since I fell victim to that illness, my beauty gradually left me. If I was born ugly, perhaps I would be able to tolerate it. However, I was so beautiful in the past. How can I accept my current obese self?”
