This was perhaps the most glorious moment of my life – sacrificing myself for the female lead. I am a coward, and before I pushed her away, I didn't know I possessed such immense strength. As I pushed her to the side of the road, I saw Sheng Zhu embrace her tightly.
As for me, I was hit by a car that couldn't brake in time. A brief overview of my life flashed through my mind. Miraculously! I saw the scene of myself in my mother's womb. Once again, I experienced a fleeting, superficial glimpse of my childhood. Every stage of my development, from when I was a child, to becoming a young girl, or my entire growth process, turned out to be so ordinary.
When I was little, my parents used to say: "Qian Qian, your sister's health isn't good. You should care for her more. If there's anything you like, just tell us, don't take it from your sister."
I knew what my sister wanted, but I didn't know what I wanted. Perhaps I wished my parents would encourage and praise me from behind, saying: "Qian Qian, you're so understanding."
When feelings began to develop, Sheng Zhu apologized to me and said: "Shen Qian, you're a very good person, but the one I've always loved is Shen Hua."
Everyone said I was a good person, but they all chose my sister Shen Hua. I didn't even need them to say it; I already knew the answer. My youth... My life stopped forever at twenty years old. I had only just stepped out of the university gates. It felt as if my soul was escaping my body, becoming incredibly light.
I saw my sister, unable to look at my body, held tightly in Sheng Zhu's embrace. Her tears, like large pearls, fell one by one to the ground. My parents still seemed to be in shock, their luggage having fallen from their hands at some point without them even realizing it. After a long while, I heard a piercing scream tear through the air.
"Qian Qian."
They couldn't see me, and I couldn't control myself, only drifting away, unsure where my soul was headed. I was moving into an boundless white space. A handsome, dignified deity appeared, looking at me intently.
"Shen Qian, the supporting female character who died saving the female lead. Normally, if the conditions are met... I can grant you one wish."
The deity said I was a supporting character, whose lifelong mission was to pave the way for the female lead, to let her shine brightly, and when my value was exhausted, I would have to leave. I silently reread the title of the book. My sister's name was Shen Hua; Father hoped she would be strong and resilient like a birch tree. So this was a book where she was the female lead, no wonder...
Then, seeing me smile happily, the deity asked what I was smiling about. I smiled, intending to speak, but my throat felt as if it were pricked by needles, choking up: "I now know why everyone likes her, and it's not because I wasn't good enough."
I could feel that everyone liked me, but for them, this affection was easily forgotten, easily overlooked. If they weren't careful, they would inadvertently forget about me.
"I know you feel wronged. I can send you back into the book to seek revenge, eliminate your obsession, and quickly reincarnate."
I pondered in silence for a long time, then shook my head: "I have no right to seek revenge. If possible, please help me, let me know what it feels like to be loved with all one's heart?"
The deity sighed. As I was being sent off, a voice drifted from afar: "Once the obsession vanishes, you will return to reincarnation."
