Chapter 231 Relapse of Depression

Song Yan seemed not to hear Jiang Wang's voice; he was still looking at Si Yuan, his eyes filled with obsession.

He was about to cry, he was about to go crazy.

Why did he just want to keep the person he liked?

Why is it that even though he made a mistake by accident when he was eighteen, and has spent five years atoning for it, it's still not enough?

He didn't even ask her to marry him, didn't care that she had someone else in her heart, and didn't mind that the child was Jiang Wang's...

During those five years, he never held a grudge about it once.

However, Si Yuan still didn't want him anymore.

What else can he do?

"Xiao Yuan," Song Yan pressed his forehead against hers, hurriedly denying and defending himself, "Lin Shuangyu's matter is not my fault, at least, not entirely my fault... It was Jiang Wang, he took you away!"

Si Yuan stared at Song Yan in astonishment, not understanding what he meant.

Song Yan continued, "If he hadn't tricked you into marrying him, if he hadn't stolen you away, we should have always been fine. I had no choice but to do this, I had no choice but to use Lin Shuangyu. She proves nothing, she's just a pawn used to force you two apart. I don't like her, and I don't care about her... I just want you to see clearly that Jiang Wang can't give you stability, not even as much as I can!"

Si Yuan's mind went completely blank.

To her, every single word of these words was something only a madman could utter.

So, rescuing Lin Shuangyu was utterly ridiculous...

In fact, Song Yan had indeed gradually gone mad.

With that gentle face and appearance, he spoke those chaotic and hypocritical words. Si Yuan looked at him with bewilderment and confusion, at a man she had never seen before.

Even Song Yan himself probably doesn't believe it, right?

But what can we do now?

Many things have already happened.

Si Yuan shoved him away, shaking her head violently, not wanting to hear another word. "Song Yan, you're terrifying! You're just making excuses!"

"Lin Shuangyu is the one who pushed me into hell. How could you use her? How could you push me into hell again?"

Hearing her so upset, Song Yan felt a suffocating sense of oppression.

If he had known she would be so upset about this, he definitely wouldn't have chosen that method.

But he couldn't let go, and he couldn't do it.

Si Yuan was the only oxygen that allowed him to survive, the only thing he wanted, and the only proof that he was still alive.

He had long since stopped caring about life and death.

Song Yan was still saying, "Si Yuan, I did all this for you..."

But Jiang Wang couldn't listen anymore.

Song Yan has gone mad, absolutely mad!

The veins on his hand, which was gripping the iron rod, bulged, and he walked over without saying a word.

Song Yan suddenly raised his eyes, his gaze falling on Jiang Wang. The tenderness in his eyes was covered by something cruel, and a confident smile appeared on his lips.

"Jiang Wang, you are welcome to come over."

His voice wasn't loud, but it instantly gripped Jiang Wang's lifeline: "Don't you want Si Yuan anymore, and you don't want your own child either?"

Jiang Wang abruptly stopped, his entire body frozen in place.

Song Yan's words did not seem like a bluff.

Song Yan looked at his suddenly pale face and smiled even more deeply.

"So you really knew that Xiao Zhou is your child."

Si Yuan's breath hitched. She looked at Song Yan, her voice filled with disbelief: "Song Yan, Xiao Zhou... that's a child you watched grow up!"

Song Yan sighed, his smile tinged with a wild joy and a hint of sorrow.

He replied, "Why am I good to him? Because he is your child. I love you, and that's why I love him."

Do you even know how much I like you?

Si Yuan looked at Song Yan, crying silently, shaking her head, trying to beg him to stop talking; she didn't want to hear a single word.

Si Yuan had a terrible headache, and all she could hear were questions and accusations from voices she couldn't quite place. Her mouth was filled with the taste of blood from the pain.

She would rather lose everything from the beginning than watch the people she trusted gradually come to this point.

It's all her fault.

It's all her fault...

Yu Qingfang once said something like this.

If Song Yan gets entangled with her too much, it won't end well; the cause is bad, and the result will be bad too.

She didn't care at the time, but now, those words all strangely overlap with the current situation.

She really forced Song Yan onto this path.

She even harmed her beloved child.

And Jiang Wang.

Just then, footsteps sounded again from the stairwell.

Ji Song strolled up slowly, glanced at the three people facing off, and frowned: "Dude, I didn't realize you were way crazier than me."

Song Yan's gaze suddenly turned cold as he looked directly at Ji Song: "What business is it of yours here?"

Ji Song said, "Don't be so dramatic. I was just passing by and wanted to join in the fun."

Song Yan glared at him, then coldly looked away.

He knew he had reached a dead end.

Si Yuan suddenly realized something, and belatedly paused, then looked at Jiang Wang: "So, Jiang Wang... you're not sick?"

Jiang Wang was suddenly stunned.

He was speechless, unsure how to explain.

Song Yan smiled sadly, as if he had finally found an opening. He gripped Si Yuan's shoulders slightly and said, "Look, he's still lying to you! Jiang Wang is still lying to you!"

Jiang Wang's face turned pale. He shook his head, wanting to explain, but didn't know how to say it.

Si Yuanqu seemed to have suddenly lost all her strength, and blankly withdrew her gaze.

It's as if they've figured everything out.

Seeing the awkward situation, Ji Song stepped in to interrupt, "He's doing it for your own good."

Then he looked at Song Yan and said, "I called the police, Song Yan. The police should be here soon. You didn't need to go this far."

These words, spoken lightly by Ji Songdi, pierced Si Yuan's nerves, which had been stretched to their limit.

Yes, Song Yan didn't need to go this far.

Perhaps it really was all her fault.

If she had never stepped into the Song family's door, if she had never accepted Song Yan's kindness and fallen in love with him, if she had died in a mental hospital abroad ten years ago... would none of this have happened today?

Everyone was lying to her.

At such a dangerous moment, she was worried about Jiang Wang's illness just a second ago, and she has been anxious about it these past few days while she was locked up.

It turned out that it was all fake.

Jiang Wang also lied to her.

She looked out the window and, through the broken window frame, could see a small patch of clear sky, so blue it was dazzling.

But that blue may never belong to her again.

For someone like her, there's really no point in living.

She has harmed so many people, dragged the once-proud Song Yan down from his pedestal, caused Jiang Wang to fall seriously ill, and even made Xiao Zhou grieve along with her...

The life in her eyes faded little by little, until it was completely devoid of light.

Song Yan was so agitated by Ji Song's words that his blood was boiling. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly felt that the person in his arms had stopped talking.

She stopped crying and stopped moving.

The sudden, deathly silence terrified him more than any sound.

He froze abruptly, looking down in astonishment.

Si Yuan's head slumped limply in his arms, her eyes closed, her face as white as a sheet, devoid of any life.
