Collapse: Raising a Wife Since Childhood

Jizi also frowned, "Why Hane, you let a married man do this?"

45. Unnecessary pain

Ji Zi's words shocked Shen Yunie even more, but he couldn't refute it, and a helpless emotion rose between his eyebrows. Being too close to a girl, or relying on her emotions, to the extent of living for yourself, others would think too much when they heard it.

There are several people who cannot be part of this so-called entrustment plan. Ji Zi, who is already too old, Fu Hua, who has a cold personality, and Shen Yunie, who is recognized to be a married man, have now been excluded. The only choice left is among Kiana, Mei, and Bronya to approach Wendy and make friends with her.

"Change someone else. If Sakura knew, she would be angry." Ji Zi urged with a frown.

However, Kiana shook her head vigorously and said seriously, "No, I don't think it can be changed. Simply making friends is not enough. Wendy had already transplanted the gem five years ago. At that time, she had just completed the promotion and was hailed as an S-level seed. Naturally, she had many friends around her.

Now? She may have already given up on the word friend, so simply being friends is definitely not enough. "

Ji Zi understood the meaning of her words, but her brows did not relax. She said seriously: "This is deception. If she knew the truth, the ending might be even more horrible."

"Well, it's not to that extent. I didn't say I wanted Wendy to fall in love with Shen Yunie." Kiana touched her face and smiled awkwardly, "Let her feel the beauty of the world again."

Shen Yunie, the protagonist of the discussion, asked calmly, "Which comic book did you read this from?"

It is undeniable that the method she said is indeed feasible. If he wants to do it, he will have to ask Leah and Yae Sakura for their opinions, which is almost a deception, and it will be troublesome to deal with it when the time comes.

The moment she heard the method, the first thought that came to Leah's mind was to refuse. She quickly came to her senses and said with a reluctant look, "Go ahead. Sakura is a person who will definitely ask you to do it if it can save someone."

"Then choose again, we are happy to do it." Kiana stuck out her tongue, leaned on the table and gave the right to speak to Ji Zi.

After thinking for a long time, Jizi still couldn't say anything. She rubbed her temples in annoyance and finally came to a conclusion, "You two can work together to make her feel more kindness. You can't just let Yu Ni do it. If the emotions are too intense, I won't be able to explain to Sakura."

Even if Yaezakura wouldn't care, Himeko couldn't just let her brother do it.

The final method of discussion had been decided, and everyone began to eat in silence again. Bronya lowered her eyes, with an expressionless face, and moved the rice in the bowl back and forth with her hands without eating. The girl would not show her emotions, but from her actions, it was obvious that she had no appetite and was in a bad mood.

The meal ended in silence. Shen Yunie was about to return to the room to ask Yaesakura for her opinion. Before he entered the room, the corner of his clothes was tugged at. Bronya followed behind him. Her proactive attitude attracted curious glances from the others.

The girl said expressionlessly: "Can we take a walk with Bronya? I have something to tell Shen Yunie."

Without much hesitation, Shen Yunie turned around and walked out with her, "Well, what does Bronya want to say?"

The town looked more peaceful under the night sky. The rippling pond reflected the kerosene-lit street lamps and the girls walking around. They were all energetic Valkyries. The war had finally stopped and everyone wanted to go out and play.

The two walked one after the other on the cobblestone road, passing the laughing crowd, and came to the opposite side of the pond and the house. Bronya suddenly stopped and turned her head to look at the boy with a faint smile behind her, "Please Shen Yunie must do this thing. Sister Wendy is the most pitiful person."

"I will." Shen Yunie nodded. He could hear the pleading in Bronya's voice. It was difficult for this physically disabled girl to do this. No matter what the situation was, he was on Saint Freya's side, so he would do it even without the current request.

"Sister Wendy's life is ruined. She is like a combination of Bronya and Mei. She should live on and regain her life now that she is already incomplete." Bronya paused here, "She is just like Bronya. Please Shen Yunie must do it."

"Of course, I promise."

When Shen Yunie asked Yaezakura, she got the same answer. The miko's tone was a little gentle, and she said to him seriously: "Go ahead, listen to Yunie and Liya's inner thoughts, and save her."

……

In the small town hospital, a logistics worker walked out of an ordinary ward with a bad look on his face. He muttered to himself in the corridor: "Where did that girl go? She was finally given a new ward, but she didn't know how to cherish it. This kind of monster doesn't deserve to stay here. Take her away and isolate her, and there will be no more disasters here."

The guy she hated was staying in an intensive care unit. The wind from the running equipment blew up her short dark green hair in front of her forehead. Her eyes were fixed on the pale girl on the bed in a daze.

The light shining into the room moved and fell on the pale face. The refracted light made Wendy's vision blurred. At that moment, she could not see Shen Ning's appearance clearly. It was so hazy that it seemed as if he was already illusory and was about to disappear.

She suddenly came to her senses and reached out to touch Shen Ning, tears welling up in her eyes. The touch was real, and Wendy could no longer control her tears. She leaned on Shen Ning's chest and cried, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I hurt you, why did you have to get close to me? You could have survived if you just stayed away from me."

She killed Shen Ning, and the Honkai virus is incurable. Her only friend in the world will no longer exist.

After crying until her eyes turned red, Wendy raised her head and stared at Shen Ning. Her expression became distorted with pain. "Why didn't anyone come to rescue us? You could have survived if you had been faster. They think I'm a monster and want me to die.

They will pay the price for this, I will kill them for you!"

The pain made Qinghong's eyes glow green again. Wendy lowered her eyelashes and kissed the bloodless lips, her expression becoming fierce.

The door of the ward behind her was pushed open, and her expression instantly returned to pain, but she did not suppress the Honkai energy that was released involuntarily. An ethereal voice kept echoing in her mind.

"Your suffering has reached the limit. Offer it to God, and God will grant you the power of revenge."

"You have lost everything. All you can do is take revenge on those who killed Shen Ning."

Yes, thanks to those people, she has lost everything. Not only her destiny, but she wants to make everyone in this world feel her pain, as long as she can become a Herrscher. Wendy no longer cares whether she is a monster or not.

Shen Yunie came to visit Shen Ning. Seeing Wendy was still in the ward, he said calmly, "She won't wake up for a while."

"Shen Ning was infected with the Honkai virus. She suffered so much pain because she saved me." Wendy's cold tone was mixed with many emotions. She turned around and made Shen Yunie stunned. "If someone could come to support us at that time, Shen Ning would not have to die."

The blue-iris pupils radiated inorganic light, pure and deep despair. Wendy had been affected by the Desire Gem, and her emotions were being dragged down. Was Shen Yunie and the others' plan going to fail before it even started?

The air became thick and heavy, and even breathing was extremely difficult. The girl's dark green short hair moved without wind. She didn't care that someone was standing in front of her. She began to let the Honkai energy gather in her body, and there was no emotion in her eyes.

"Shen Ning endured the pain that she shouldn't have endured, so shouldn't the people who hurt her also endure it once?"

46. ​​I will try my best to control it

The Herrscher was born here, and everyone in the hospital will die. Even this town will be reduced to ruins under her madness.

Shen Yunie frowned as he looked at Wendy, whose eyes glowed green. He said calmly, "As far as I know, the Honkai energy fluctuations were very strong at the time, and all communication equipment was paralyzed. The town was besieged by more than a dozen Emperor-class monsters, and no one was able to escape."

Wendy lowered her eyes, her long, curly eyelashes stained with light green light, these factors do exist. The voice in her mind continued to echo, urging her not to stop her pain and desire.

"Can't get away? If only one person had come, this tragedy could have been avoided..."

"He's just looking for an excuse! No one really wants a monster like you to live."

"No, that's not right. You're just making excuses." Wendy covered her ears. She wanted to get rid of the voice in her head but couldn't. She stared at Shen Yunie in a state of collapse. "They could have come alone!"

"So I showed up and saved you from Ganesha's mouth. Shen Ning did have the Honkai virus, but she didn't die that easily. On the contrary, if you can't control the Honkai energy to evaporate here, it will accelerate her death."

What Wendy didn't notice was that the originally steady heartbeat on the monitor had now become violent, and the blood vessels under the bloodless skin were flashing purple lines. After seeing Shen Ning like this, she was completely stunned, and the collapsed energy she emitted instantly began to weaken.

"For people without Honkai energy in their bodies, the time from infection to death is about 24 hours. It has been more than this time since you were brought back yesterday. And there are no obvious signs of erosion on Shen Ning's body." Shen Yunie's tone became much calmer. He was sure that Wendy still wanted Shen Ning to live, "Except now, there are obvious signs of erosion on her face."

Fear was revealed in Wendy's eyes. Shen Ning, the most innocent person, should not die here. If she became a Herrscher, she would be the first to be killed. No matter what sound and influence the Desire Gem made, the girl remained indifferent and forcibly suppressed the Honkai energy.

Qinghong's pupils lost their green light and were gradually covered with a layer of mist. Wendy lay beside the bed, her shoulders shaking. "But even if she can survive, she will continue to be tortured. I have endured that kind of pain before. There is no antidote for the Honkai virus in the world. She will die sooner or later."

"Because she will die sooner or later, so you want to deprive her of her life now?" Shen Yunie's tone was very light, "Just like others vetoed you, you also have to veto Shen Ning."

"No, Shen Ning is the most innocent and kind person. No one has the right to veto her, not even me..." Wendy's fingertips seemed to touch the delicate face with loving care. The purple lines dimmed where her fingertips passed. She felt her heart suddenly skip a beat. "Can Shen Ning really survive?"

Shen Yunie shook her head. "I don't know. Maybe she will die tomorrow. Before she dies, she will wake up and look at you and talk to you. The process is painful. Letting her die now is also a good choice."

When Wendy mentioned letting Shen Ning die, she immediately looked up at him unkindly, then quickly shook her head, revealing a pitiful look, "I can't let her die. I want her to open her eyes and look at me again, and talk to me. She is the only one in this world who is truly kind to me."

For some reason, Wendy had a feeling that the only person who could keep Shen Ning alive was the young man in front of her. "Sorry, I seem to be a little schizophrenic... but I really want her to survive, so I will try my best to control my emotions."

The two stayed here for a long time. Wendy's attention was all on the unconscious Shen Ning. Occasionally, she would talk to Shen Yunie as if she was talking to herself. What happened when Shen Ning came here a month ago, she naturally became a logistics staff without Honkai energy.

Shen Ning was young and her physique was worse than anyone else in the branch, but she did not slack off in her work. She did more and better than some of the logistics staff who had worked here for a long time, as if what she did was to save the world.

Even without Honkai energy, she still did everything well and won everyone's respect. Her life was great before she met Wendy.

Until that day, Shen Ning, who was carefully cleaning the laboratory, met Wendy who was having her blood drawn for testing.

Wendy no longer cared much about the blood test. Two years ago, her Honkai energy could no longer improve, and the gems had not stopped affecting her. Gradually, her emotions would be affected unintentionally, causing Honkai energy fluctuations in the nearby cities. People around her began to discuss whether she was a monster. After the battle, the Valkyries said without a care that it was all her fault.

Minister Amy's eyes became hesitant when she looked at her. The most common words they said during their conversation were, "Wendy, how are you feeling recently? You have to control your emotions and not let yourself turn into a monster."

Wendy suddenly lost everything. She began to beg everyone not to leave her. She began to lower her status and do stupid things, just to make others laugh and stay with her. But as her influence grew, she caused more fluctuations. No one would stay with her. They all avoided her and secretly cursed the Oceania branch for creating a monster Herrscher.

Finally, Wendy became numb. No matter how ridiculous she did, she was looked at as if she were a monster. Her crippled legs made it impossible for her to continue training. Apart from fighting, she would hide in her room. Every week, she would be taken to the institute for blood tests.

The result of the test was nothing more than determining the percentage of Honkai energy in the blood. Even if the data was the same every time, the doctors would not stop drawing blood, which was painful for her. They always thought that Wendy would become a Herrscher one day, and privately treated her as a derivative of the Herrscher.

That day, the girl's hair was messy, her blue eyes lost focus and collapsed, and all she reflected in her eyes was the scene of herself being tied to the iron sheet, watching the blood flowing out of her veins. She is not a monster... Why did they tie her up? The needle for drawing blood really hurt, and the doctors could have been more gentle.

I don't know when the doctor became so rude, and she was numb to the point where she wouldn't groan in pain. A lot of blood was drawn, and multiple experiments were needed to ensure authenticity, because the Herrscher was the most cunning creature in the world.

Wendy walked in the corridor with a dull look on her face. She didn't notice the pile of debris right in front of her and just walked forward.

The sound of falling debris and the pain brought the girl back to her senses. A flash of red appeared in her sight, and the bandage wrapped around her arm loosened. The wound that had not yet dried was bleeding.

She tightened the bandage indifferently, took a step and continued to walk forward. She should hear the usual scolding and insults behind her. It was unlucky to have her things touched by the Herrscher.

"Sister, are you okay?" The expected scolding did not come, but instead a weak voice of concern was heard?

Wendy ignored him, thinking that maybe the other party had just mistaken her for someone else, and would start scolding her when they saw that it was a monster like her. She continued to walk forward until a figure appeared in front of her. It was a petite and frail girl, wearing a loose brown logistics uniform that slipped down from her neck to both sides, revealing her fair skin.

The girl looked at her, her watery black eyes a little panicked, as if she had done something wrong. She said weakly: "Sister, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left the rubbish on the road. Are you okay?"

Is this also a reason to apologize? Wendy knew that she could have avoided it, but she bumped into him because she was distracted. In any case, it was her fault.

Seeing that the girl was not going to leave without her saying anything, Wendy was stunned for a long time before she hummed lightly and prepared to walk around the girl. She turned around but her arm was suddenly grabbed, and the pain from her injured arm made her frown.

"Ah! I'm sorry, sister. I didn't notice. Does your whole hand hurt? I wanted to help you rebandage it."

Wendy stopped her movement to leave and looked at the girl silently. She saw her carefully unwrapping the bloody bandage and then wrapping it again, with a gloomy look between her eyebrows, as if she was the one who was injured.

"Okay, this will help stop the bleeding. Sister, if you don't know how to bandage it, you can come to me again." After re-bandaging the bandage, the gloom between the girl's eyebrows disappeared. She raised her head and smiled at Wendy, with small dimples on both sides of her cheeks. "My name is Shen Ning, a newcomer in the logistics department. I've seen you before, I think your name is Wendy, but I didn't get to talk to you."

Have you seen me? You must have heard about me. Why do you want to come closer? Even if you come closer to me, you will be talked about by people around you.

"Don't come near me." Wendy said without any emotion. While Shen Ning was confused, she walked around him and tried to leave quickly. Just think of it as a warning to her after she had wrapped the bandages around her.

After a short period of silence, footsteps were heard again. Shen Ning chased after them without giving up, "Sister Wendy, why don't I get closer to you?"

“……”Wendy.

Without any further answer, the girl kept following her and asking questions until they left the research institute. Wendy was fed up with being asked questions and used Honkai energy to quickly move away from Shen Ning's sight, and she could no longer hear those curious and concerned questions. As a result, she was accused of using Honkai energy recklessly, and the doctor took her blood for testing.

Wendy thought she would never meet Shen Ning again. A smart person would just ask about her name and understand this monster thoroughly, and then stay away from her. But she didn't expect that the girl would approach her again the next day.

"Sister Wendy." Shen Ning walked quickly to her excitedly, carefully looked at the place where the wound was bandaged yesterday, and then frowned, "Sister, you need to change the bandage, otherwise the wound will get infected. Let's go to the infirmary."

Before Wendy could answer, Shen Ning had already taken her hand. At that moment, Wendy could clearly sense that the eyes around her became sharper. The group of people looked at Shen Ning in surprise, and then looked at her with disgust, as if silently asking: Why do you still want to hurt people?

Every day after that, Shen Ning would take the initiative to approach Wendy. They had just met and exchanged less than five sentences, but they suddenly became friends?

47. It’s not too late to change

Shen Ning and Wendy became closer and closer. Every time she walked out of the laboratory, there would always be a girl standing outside, handing her supplements and carefully checking her wounds. Sometimes, she would even tear up because the wounds were too big, even though Wendy herself didn't think there was anything wrong.

She would get some desserts that Wendy hadn't eaten for a long time, and give them to her like she was comforting a child, telling her that eating something sweet would stop the pain. There were always smiling voices around her.

There were more and more discussions about Shen Ning. Every time Wendy could not control her desire for the gem and caused a collapse wave, they would be looked at as if they were monsters when they walked together. They also regarded Shen Ning as a monster. Although they would not avoid her, they would discuss her privately and dissuade her from getting close to Wendy.

Even Wendy herself didn't understand why Shen Ning wanted to get close to her. It wasn't until the day they sat by the river that she knew the answer.

"You approached my sister with a purpose?" Shen Ning's tone was a little surprised. She blinked, her eyes still bright and reflected Wendy's pale face. Gradually, she curved her eyes and two dimples appeared on her cheeks. "Did you see through me? It seems that my acting skills are too poor."

Wendy was stunned when she heard this. She turned her head stiffly and looked at the clear river, her eyelashes drooping and her eyes dull. She suddenly regretted asking. If she didn't ask, she could imagine that Shen Ning had no purpose, and the two of them could still maintain this fake friendship.

Shen Ning sensed something was wrong. A look of desolation flashed across her sister's face. This time it was very real, as if she had lost everything. She gradually put away her smile and asked in a low voice, "Sister Wendy, did I scare you? Actually, it can't be said that it is my purpose. My purpose is to make you happy and normal.

When I was in the welfare home, there was also a lonely child. He would not blend in with the crowd. He was very cold every time he interacted with us, and sometimes he even acted a bit pretentious in front of other caregivers. So many children talked about his strange appearance. Everyone thought that it was right to keep warm together when lonely, and it was wrong to be alone. They even talked about his future.

I felt that was wrong, but I didn't have the courage to approach him. I could only watch him being lonely day after day. There were more and more discussions, and the nurse and the director were worried about whether there would be problems with his personality development. "

Wendy remained silent, she had recovered from her daze. Seeing this, Shen Ning's face regained a smile, and she continued: "Later, a little girl appeared next to that child. The little girl would always approach him shamelessly and would not integrate with us. Sometimes when she heard the gossip, she would scold those children for him. After he had a companion, the dean no longer worried about his personality development.

Later on, I met both of them again. They were both living good lives, much better than me, and their future was bright, as you could see at first glance.

When I came here and saw Sister Wendy, it was like seeing him as a child. I think I finally have the courage to approach her now. What she can do, maybe I can do too. It would be sad to see you alone and degenerate. "

Wendy looked at her, and a hint of doubt appeared on her usually indifferent face. "Is that all?"

Seeing Shen Ning nod obediently, she asked again: "Do I look like that boy, or do I look abnormal?"

Hearing this sudden question, Shen Ning's expression froze for a moment. After a long while, she said dryly, "No, no. Sister Wendy is a very pretty girl, and it's normal."

The two figures were reflected in the clear and swift river. Wendy saw the girl next to her approaching her secretly, and she suddenly laughed. Can the two of them turn the painful future into a beautiful one?

……

Shen Yunie, who was the core of the story, listened to the whole story. Leah in the space couldn't help but exclaimed, "So Yunie influenced so many people back then."

"I don't know." Shen Yunie said lightly. It sounded like a sad story. Two good friends were about to part ways with each other. "After all, personality is not something I can control."

There were two factors that influenced him to be a loner. He was the only blind person in the orphanage, so he naturally rejected people who could see. With Leah by his side, he matured earlier than his peers. Under her motherly love, he changed from rejecting people to being a little disdainful of approaching them.

Let Wendy control her emotions. He has to take good care of Shen Ning who is infected with the virus. However, this disease cannot be cured unless the Herrscher dies. This is simply an unsolvable problem. Shen Yunie can't think of the answer, but he can use blood to delay the time of Shen Ning's death to find the answer.

"I think every Herrscher will have schizophrenia." Wendy laughed dryly, "But no matter how split it is, it will not affect my determination to protect Shen Ning. If she dies because of me becoming a Herrscher, then please kill me."

Shen Yunie looked into the pair of eyes that were full of seriousness. After a long silence, he nodded seriously.

The ward was carefully opened. When the person who walked in saw Wendy in the room, the expression on his face suddenly became bad. Her tone was not very good. The next second, she said coldly: "The patient in this ward is suffering from the Honkai virus. If someone with Honkai energy gets close to her, it will cause the spread to accelerate."

The implication is that you can't stay here. That person was targeting Wendy, and after seeing Shen Yunie was also here, he simply targeted him as well.
