Aromatic Flesh

The beautiful young woman stared at the scene unfolding in front of her from the ground and shook her head with hatred and compassion in her eyes. She stood up and walked towards the bed, pulling the obviously frightened little boy into her arms in comfort before leading him towards the door.

After so many years, he was still like this, but she… she was still here raising his child in his place…

Fortunately, the child’s mother passed away when he was a newborn, and having no memory of that woman, Han Yi had always thought of herself as his biological mother.

How much did she – Zhao ChunRan loved this man, to the point that even after Shen Rong had gone crazy, she had insisted on her resolution to marry into the Shen Family and take care of his child.

And how much did he love his sister, to the point that he had gone crazy after she had jumped off the building under his watchful eyes.

From Shen Rong’s nonsensical ramblings and the police’s investigations, she later learned about the private and unusual relationship between the two, and that it had already begun long before she met Shen Rong… So what exactly was her place in this?

If he had always loved his non-blood-related stepsister all this while, why would he associate himself with her in the first place…? Why would he hurt two women in such a way?

How cruel.

After Shen Rong’s scandal was exposed, the Shen Family was thrown into disarray. After the event, Shen Rong’s career and future were ruined, Father Shen had to publicly announce his retirement while Mother Shen – who could not bear the blow of the incident, fell ill and was since bedridden. Her hatred for Shen Rong was unprecedented, so much so that she wished she could murder the man and eat his flesh, and of course, she did not allow him to attend Shen Yue’s funeral.

However, Shen Rong had forcibly broken into the memorial service by force. But upon seeing Shen Yue lying motionless in the coffin surrounded by flowers, Shen Rong went crazy.

If he had known it would come to this, would he still have done what he did? Zhao ChunRan sighed dejectedly, this was something she would never get an answer to.

She could not help but love this man for years, even taking up the role of a nominal Mrs. Shen willingly. But after all that she had endured through the years, she could not help but admit that she was a little tired.

Time could kill all emotions, especially emotions that you give but never reciprocated.

It was time to move on, however, she could not bear to leave Han Yi behind.

She had been taking care of Han Yi for many years, and had long since regarded him as her own. She was not so cruel to leave a child who was attached to her behind, not to mention that she was also attached to the child.

Therefore, this was the only way.

Shen Rong’s mind was not always chaotic, and though the duration was not long, he would occasionally regain his clear and rational moments. But during such times, he was capable of thinking rationally like a normal person, which was exactly what she needed here.

Wasn’t that what he’d always wanted…? Hopefully, during the window when he temporarily regained his sanity, he would find the nail clippers that she had slipped secretly slipped into his pocket just now.

Zhao ChunRun walked out of the gate of the nursing home and let out a deep breath of relief.

It was his choice to choose if he would end all of this pain once and for all. Because right now, although his body was alive, everything else within him was dead.

After his death, Han Yi’s legal guardianship will be passed to her completely, and when she finally remarries in the future, she would be able to take Han Yi with her.

Glancing back at the Chinese-styled buildings in JiangNan Town, the beautiful young woman smiled brightly as she held the child’s hand tightly.

At the same time, in the patient room, Shen Rong stabbed his throat with the manicure knife.

Bright scarlet blood spewed out from the wound on his throat, spraying messily onto the ivory room – walls, floor, and bed.

Xiao Yue… Brother is finally coming down to accompany you……

But, I suppose you would never wish to see me again……

“Hahahahaha… Urgh……” The man gasped and choked helplessly as his blood filled up his airpipes, preventing further airflow.

As his vision went blurry and his consciousness faded, he could hear loud noises as people scurried in panic within his room.

Ah.

Hell, I wonder what it looks like.

That’s the end of the stepbrother’s arc! I genuinely hope this was enough to quell everyone’s anger and resentment for this arc!

Personally, I feel like he should’ve gone through more. Going crazy and committing suicide felt like an easy way out for him ngl. I feel like he should’ve maintained his sanity, and live with the trauma and guilt until his final days, but even so, it would still not be enough for me smh…

Anyways, though there are BE arcs and weird plots, I do hope everyone is still enjoying this title!
