This superpower is unreliable.

"It's okay, old friend."

Who will save him...

"I am here."

Don't go... don't leave him alone...

"So-know! Calm down!"

Whose voice was it? Was it someone who came to rescue him?

Wen Guzhi felt that he was trapped in darkness. He wanted to escape, so he kept running forward, but found that no matter how hard he ran, he could not escape from the abyss.

As his strength gradually ran out, a faint fragrance seemed to float in from the darkness, gently coming over and enveloping him.

Just when he felt a little relieved by this, a thicker darkness came towards him, dispelled the fragrance, and then pressed heavily on him.

"It's fine to die."

don't want……

Until the whole person was immersed in the boundless darkness and fell asleep, it was as if he was back in the nightmare again, falling, and falling again.

-----------------

In Wen Guzhi's memory, his father never seemed to smile in front of him.

He originally thought that he had done something wrong and displeased his father, so his father never smiled at him. So he always worked harder to study, and he would do his best to do his best in schoolwork and other hobbies.

Later, he realized that no matter how hard he tried, his father would not even look at him.

It was then that Wen Guzhi realized that it was not that his father disliked him, but that his father hated him.

In fact, it wasn't just his father. Wen Guzhi had noticed at a very young age that his family relationships were different from those of others.

There is no harmony even if it is pretended.

He never had a time when the family got together to chat.

His father pushed his sister out, his mother was busy with work, and he was alone at home.

That's true every day.

When Wen Guzhi grew up, he began to hear many stories about his parents from other people.

For example, his parents had a business marriage. The Wen family and the Su family were two evenly matched families. If they were combined, it would be a powerful combination, a perfect match, and a match made in heaven.

But what he heard most was his mother and father quarreling.

Or, it was the mother's one-sided quarrel, and the father would just sit there quietly, never retorting a word. In the end, he would only say one sentence when the mother was almost done quarreling:

"Have you said enough? If you're no longer angry, I'll leave."

After my father left, my mother would always smash a lot of things and then go back to her room with her face covered by her hands.

Wen Guzhi, who was hiding in a corner, felt that it must be because his mother was too fierce and too strong, and never willing to show weakness, so his father was scared and didn't like to go home.

Later, he heard that his and his sister's mother were not the same person.

elder sister……

His sister has been in a wheelchair for as long as he can remember.

Wen Guzhi had strange feelings towards his sister.

He likes his sister, but he also hates her.

In fact, his sister was the one who talked to him the most in the family. Every night, his sister would appear in his room in a wheelchair and like to tell him stories. But every time when she was halfway through the story, his father would appear and take his sister away.

"Don't disturb your sister's rest."

Wen Guzhi couldn't sleep, so he had to find a storybook to read by himself, hoping to finish the remaining half of the story his sister hadn't told him. However, he found that many of the stories his sister told him did not appear in the storybook.

This made Wen Guzhi even more unable to sleep.

Later, he heard another incident, which made his already strange and contradictory emotions towards his sister even more complicated.

Some people say that the elder sister was not born with a disability. She became lame because she tried to save the young master.

Young master.

Wen Guzhi knew that the young master was him.

Wen Guzhi was hiding in the greenhouse when he heard the gossip. He was only 7 years old at the time and had just been bullied by Rotman. He couldn't tell anyone, let alone complain to his parents, so he had to sit behind a big flower pot, bend his knees and hug himself, trying to curl up.

Just when I was feeling aggrieved, I heard the servants chatting while taking care of the flowers and plants.

One of the servants continued, "The lady was a workaholic at the time. The young master was less than two years old, but she was anxious to go back to work. Not long after the lady left the house that day, the young master started crying and calling for his mother. She had already coaxed him into submission, but after about half an hour, the person who was taking care of the young master was not paying attention, and the young master sneaked out through the side door."

"The eldest lady was the first to discover that the young master was missing. She was anxious, so she went out to look for him by herself. Halfway down the stairs, she saw the young master trembling and walking towards a long staircase. It was dangerous, and the young master almost fell down. If the eldest lady hadn't just happened to pick up the young master, I'm afraid he would have died."

"It's such a pity for the young lady. After she rescued the young master, she lost her balance and fell down the long stairs. Alas, how pitiful! From now on, she will be confined to a wheelchair for the rest of her life, and even her IQ will remain at the level of a six-year-old."

When another servant heard this, he asked, "Six years old? That doesn't look like it. Miss still looks very smart now, doesn't she?"

"Tsk! That's because they are born smart and mature precociously. Do you think they are like you? You are clumsy and take so long to learn anything."

Another servant was not convinced: "How can you say that? That's not right. You were not at the scene, so how do you know so clearly?"

"Hey, a senior who is familiar with me told me that he went with me to look for the young master."

……

Wen Guzhi hugged his feet tighter and thought that his servants really loved to gossip.

There is so much gossip in my own family.

So many that he could hear it no matter where he hid.

"Okay, okay, let's stop talking and get back to work! If the housekeeper sees us chatting again, he'll deduct our wages."

The two servants started to connect the water pipe and started to water the flowers. The water fell all over the greenhouse, moistening the flowers and plants, and also wetting the Wen Guzhi hidden behind the large flower pot.

Wen Guzhi's wet face was not only from the water that splashed on the flowers, but also from the tears that flowed from his eyes.

He felt ashamed.

And I feel extremely disgusted with my own existence.

Why did he need to know these things? Why were we gossiping?

But he didn't want to punish the servants.

Because he was the only one at home today.

From that day on, Wen Guzhi was no longer obsessed with the existence of "family".

There's nothing wrong with it, he's used to it.

It was originally thought that their family would continue to live their entire lives in this dull and unlovable way, but Wen Guzhi never expected that when he was ten years old, his entire life changed drastically.

He was trapped in a nightmare and never woke up.
