Chapter 619: Chapter 618: Towards the Light (2 More)
"Even when I had nothing, I still faced bullying, oppression, and exclusion. At that time, I wondered if I was superfluous."
Ye Tian looked at her, "Have you found an answer?"
"I have!"
Xu Niannian showed him a faint smile, a smile that was bright and radiant, her shining eyes seemed to carry the stars of the entire universe, dazzling and bright.
It was something he had always longed for yet resisted.
Her smile was as beautiful as flowers, so happy that it brightened her face and even affected Ye Tian’s mood.
"Later, someone pulled me out of the mire, and it was that person who let me know that it wasn’t heaven’s injustice that left me in the darkness; it was I who had locked myself in the darkness."
"In this world, everyone is born into different circumstances and environments, but as long as you yearn for the light, you can definitely become luminescent. The most important thing is your own mindset."
"Heh...it sounds so simple when you say it!"
Ye Tian smiled faintly, but his eyes were void of any merriment. Those who lived in light always spoke with an ’I understand you’ attitude.
But who could truly empathize with his experiences?
"Yet some people are born to forever consort with darkness."
Xu Niannian could feel the coldness in his eyes. She didn’t know what had happened to him.
For the sake of the face that resembled Uncle Ye, Xu Niannian didn’t want him to become detestable.
"In this world, nothing is predetermined. If you aspire to light, you can certainly become light. I don’t know what has happened to Mr. Ye, but I at least know that Mr. Ye, with all your sufferings, have not endured more than those born with congenital disabilities, who can only wish to walk, to see the world, and to hear its sounds."
"Why can’t we be like those who were born into darkness and yet live in light?"
"I once heard a saying, ’When you’re too poor to afford shoes, think of those without feet. Compared to them, we are very fortunate to have healthy bodies. If they can still live in the light, why should we, with able bodies, allow some difficult experiences to place us in darkness?’"
"What if my experiences are even more painful than those born with physical disabilities?"
Ye Tian suddenly asked her, "If I could, I’d rather trade a healthy body to never have had those experiences. Do you still think I can return to the light?"
"You say that when you have no shoes, think of those without feet. But some people would rather be born without feet than have them amputated later. The phrase ’empathize with others’ always sounds like empty words from those who’ve never experienced it."
Xu Niannian looked at him, frowning, "But what has already happened is a fact that can’t be changed. Since we can’t change past experiences, why not change our mindset and our future to make ourselves live better and happier? Why let past pain entangle our future lives?"
"You don’t understand!"
"True, I don’t understand what you’ve gone through, but I do know that suffering for a moment or for a lifetime, darkness for a moment or for a lifetime, I choose the former because I want to live well, I don’t want to torment myself, and moreover, happiness is important."
Ye Tian had never heard such words before; only Nuo Heng and another subordinate he had once saved knew of his plight.
Those who knew of his plight felt just like him—that the people of this world, those who had hurt him, all deserved to be destroyed.
Yet, no one had ever told him how important happiness was.
Nor had anyone told him not to let past pains shackle his future life.
He thought he had no future left.
His purpose in living was to destroy this scarred and ugly world.
He stared blankly at Xu Niannian’s eyes, those eyes that had attracted him since their first encounter, irresistibly drawing him nearer to her.
Because there, was the brightness and purity he yearned for.
"If someone has been thoroughly tainted with darkness, is there still a chance for them to return to the light?"
Hearing this, Xu Niannian breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed her words had taken effect.
"I’ve said it before, as long as you yearn for light, you will definitely become light," Xu Niannian said, smiling broadly at him.
"Okay, I won’t talk to you anymore; I have to go back to the hospital. Goodbye."
Xu Niannian waved goodbye to him.
"Goodbye!" Ye Tian closed his eyes in silence.
But then, Xu Niannian’s voice, filled with terror, broke the stillness, "What are you doing?"
Ye Tian abruptly opened his eyes, only to see Xu Niannian’s lunch box falling to the snowy ground three meters in front of him.
The hot soup spilled out, covering the snow. That patch of snow slowly began to melt away.
Nuo Heng, holding a dagger in hand, pressed it against Xu Niannian’s neck, forcing her to step back slowly.
"What are you doing?" Ye Tian scoffed coldly, his voice sharp and indifferent.
Nuo Heng’s icy eyes fixed on Xu Niannian and then shifted towards Ye Tian.
