Chapter 418 Gave Up on Himself

Ou Yunchen: "Su Ruiyi?"

Woman: "What is it?"

Fine, she was exposed.

Su Ruiyi: "I'm not Su Ruiyi. I'm the rich lady who paid for your time tonight."

Ou Yunchen: "You can leave. I don't want to see you."

Su Ruiyi tried to approach Ou Yunchen, but she stumbled and stubbed her toe on the edge of the bed. Reaching out for something to steady herself, she fell onto the bed, landing on top of Ou Yunchen.

Su Ruiyi: "I-I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. Are you alright?"

Su Ruiyi fumbled around, afraid Ou Yunchen would yell at her to leave out of anger. She just wanted to confirm he wasn't hurt.

Ou Yunchen: "Stop touching me..."

Su Ruiyi: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, ah..."

In her panic, Su Ruiyi's hair got tangled in Ou Yunchen's belt. The more she tried to untangle it in her haste, the worse it became.

Ou Yunchen: "Get up, quickly!"

Su Ruiyi: "My hair..."

Ou Yunchen, in his urgency to pull her off, knew something bad was about to happen.

Su Ruiyi: "Ah, it hurts, it hurts! You're pulling my hair."

Ou Yunchen: "Su Ruiyi!"

Ou Yunchen's shout made Su Ruiyi even more frightened. Tears welled up as she cried silently.

Ou Yunchen: "Nothing good ever happens when I meet you!"

Su Ruiyi dared not speak, but Ou Yunchen heard her soft sobs.

Ou Yunchen: "You still have the nerve to cry!"

Su Ruiyi: "I'm sorry..."

Ou Yunchen: "Sorry? If you truly feel sorry, then get lost and don't bother me again!"

Su Ruiyi: "I'm sorry..."

Ou Yunchen: "Stop saying you're sorry! Can you just leave?!"

Su Ruiyi: "I really don't want to see you like this. If I had known this would be the outcome, I would have rather you hadn't chosen me in the first place. Perhaps if I were dead, you would have cared for me like you cared for Mo Qingyun..."

Ou Yunchen: "Su Ruiyi, we owe each other nothing. Sister Hong already told me you were the one who asked her to save me, so saving you is just repaying that debt..."

Su Ruiyi: "I'm sorry to Mo Qingyun. I can't apologize to her face. If possible, please take my life as well. If my death will make you feel any better, then let me die."

Ou Yunchen: "Don't die in front of me."

Su Ruiyi tried to get up, but her hair was still tightly tangled.

Ou Yunchen: "What are you doing?"

Su Ruiyi: "I really want to die. This is all my fault. Before I die, I want you to return to normal. If you can believe me, I truly have no other way. If you will never forgive me..."

Ou Yunchen: "You are not the one who should die. Live on."

Saying this, Ou Yunchen took out his phone from his pocket. He held Su Ruiyi's head down to keep her from moving and then took out a lighter, burning the tangled strand of hair.

Su Ruiyi was finally able to get up. Using the light from the phone, she noticed something unusual about Ou Yunchen. She realized he must have taken medication for the rich lady before coming, as Sister Hong had told her about it...

Ou Yunchen: "You should go."

Ou Yunchen turned his back to Su Ruiyi. He felt uncomfortable but had to suppress it.

Su Ruiyi began to cry profusely, and then there was the sound of clothes rustling.

Ou Yunchen turned around angrily, about to yell at her, only to find Su Ruiyi standing naked before the bed, weeping.

Ou Yunchen: "Are you crazy?! Every time I tell you to leave, you don't. What are you doing here?! Get out now! I don't want to see you!!!"

Su Ruiyi bit her lip, shaking her head as she cried. She tried to approach the bed several times, but Ou Yunchen pushed her back.

Ou Yunchen: "Go! I don't want to touch you! I find you disgusting!"

Su Ruiyi: "I paid..."

Ou Yunchen: "You!!!"

Su Ruiyi: "I paid..."

Ou Yunchen: "Do you even know what you're doing? You're not like them!"

Su Ruiyi: "How are we different? Their money is money, so why isn't mine?"

Ou Yunchen: "Please, don't let me ruin you."

Su Ruiyi: "Why?"

Ou Yunchen: "I'm dirty! I'm a scumbag! I'm utter garbage!!!"

Su Ruiyi insisted on getting closer, but Ou Yunchen refused. Yet, he felt increasingly hot, tearing at his collar and rasping for Su Ruiyi to leave quickly, before it was too late.

Ou Yunchen: "Please, just go."

Su Ruiyi suddenly leaned down, cupped Ou Yunchen's head, and kissed him fiercely. The effect of the drug ignited with passion, and their minds exploded like brilliant fireworks.

Several times during the encounter, Ou Yunchen used his remaining reason to urge Su Ruiyi to leave, but she would hold him close and timidly cover his mouth.

As the room heated up, two lonely souls in the darkness indulged in carnal pleasure, once, twice...

Until the effects of the drug gradually subsided, Su Ruiyi lay in Ou Yunchen's arms, gently caressing his Adam's apple.

Ou Yunchen: "Now, you're no different from them in my heart."

Su Ruiyi looked up. Ou Yunchen's cheeks were gaunt and sunken, his eyes seemed to bulge slightly. He looked as if he had aged many years.

Su Ruiyi: "Then I'll keep you."

Ou Yunchen smiled. He gave Su Ruiyi a kiss, letting her sleep soundly.

So, Su Ruiyi believed she had saved Ou Yunchen and fell asleep in true happiness. She never imagined that when she woke up the next day, Ou Yunchen would already be gone from the room.

Some people sink into the abyss, refusing all offers of help, and remain hateful until the end.

The following night, Ou Yunchen was still living a life of debauchery.

When Su Ruiyi found him, he was on the verge of having his pants pulled down by the rich ladies showering him with money.

Su Ruiyi went to drag Ou Yunchen away, but he called for her to join their revelry, saying he still had a performance.

Su Ruiyi: "You come to a place like this!!!"

Ou Yunchen: "Wherever there is pleasure, I will be there."

Su Ruiyi rushed to the front of the stage and poured all the drinks in front of the rich ladies onto them, directly trashing the place.

Su Ruiyi: "Come with me."

Ou Yunchen: "Don't. I still have to go play with them."

Su Ruiyi forcefully dragged Ou Yunchen outside, where he roughly shook her hand off.

Ou Yunchen: "What exactly do you want?"

Su Ruiyi: "Can't you see? I want you to return to normal!"

Ou Yunchen: "I'm quite normal now. You're the one who's not."

Su Ruiyi: "I forbid you from coming to places like this and doing such things!"

Ou Yunchen laughed heartily.

Ou Yunchen: "Who are you? Do you really think that because you bought me once, I'll listen to you forever?"

Su Ruiyi: "Ou Yunchen!!!"

Ou Yunchen: "You called me by my name correctly. I am Ou Yunchen, not Su Yunchen. I am not a dog of your Su family's young lady, nor a cat kept on a leash by you!"

Su Ruiyi: "Are you trying to drive me insane?!"

Ou Yunchen: "Stop bothering me, and you won't go insane."

Ou Yunchen returned to his old ways. But from that moment on, Su Ruiyi stopped trying to force Ou Yunchen away. She simply followed him silently.

Wherever he went to play, Su Ruiyi followed. She would wait outside the hotel all night just to see Ou Yunchen enter, and come out late at night with a grim expression.

Ou Yunchen eventually grew accustomed to this shadow. She was quiet and unobtrusive, just following from a distance with concern, as long as she didn't interfere with his pursuit of pleasure.

However, such a life was bound to take its toll on someone.

Uncle Da dragged Ou Yunchen out of the bar. Upon seeing the once handsome young man, Uncle Da was shocked. He looked like a ghost from prison!

Uncle Da landed a heavy punch on Ou Yunchen's face. The man, like a pile of bones about to fall apart, crashed onto a shelf.

Ou Yunchen: "Uncle Da, it's been so long, and this is how you greet me..."

Another punch.

Uncle Da: "Fight back!"

Ou Yunchen: "Hands are not for hitting people..."

Uncle Da: "Then what are they for?"

Ou Yunchen: "For comforting women..."

The third punch sent Ou Yunchen sprawling, knocked unconscious.

Uncle Da could no longer bear the sight of the self-destructive young man.
