Chapter 17: Heaven's Will Teases People, Enduring All Kinds of Human Suffering (End of Chapter)

  Heaven plays tricks on people! (Having suffered all the hardships in the world, this chapter is finally complete!)

  "Alas," Wu Zhengxie sighed, "young man, you don't have to be so pessimistic. Compared to my experiences, yours are simply happiness!"

  Upon hearing this, the young man slightly tilted his head and glanced at Wu Zhengye, "You haven't left yet?"

  "Heh heh, leave? Wu Zhengxie smiled wryly, "Where can I go? I have no home, no father, no mother, no relatives, where can I go?"

  "Huh!" The young man was slightly stunned, and then looked at him incredulously. "Don't try to deceive me with your nonsense, I won't believe you!"

  "Heh, don't believe me?" Wu Zhengxie smiled eerily. "Whether you believe it or not doesn't matter anymore. I just want to say one thing: young man, don't be ignorant of the blessings you have. Someone like me is thinking about struggling to survive, and you're only experiencing a small setback. This is also an inevitable stage in life, what's the big deal?"

  "A small setback?" The young man retorted, "You think so? If I told you that I was in a relationship with her for three years and she ended up betraying me for just a few pieces of stinky money! How would you feel if you were in my shoes?"

  "Wu Zhengye was stunned for a moment, 'This master has never put his mind on women!'"

  Upon hearing this, the young man sneered, "With your appearance and demeanor, even if you were to focus on women, what would be the point? Would any woman still take a liking to you?"

  "Wu Zhengxie glared at the young man with great discontent, wanting to retort a couple of sentences, but he was stunned for a long time and couldn't find a way to refute him. The latest free chapter of this book is available on our website. In the end, he could only reluctantly give up."

  But seeing Wu Zhengye's appearance, the young man didn't continue to tease him, instead he sighed and said, "Actually, I've never had a mother since I was a child. I lived with my father, but he liked to drink a lot and often came home drunk. From childhood to adulthood, I rarely felt the warmth of family affection until I met her......"

  "I'm just like you, I didn't have a mother since I was young," Wu Zhengxie took over, "When I was six years old, I was kidnapped by human traffickers and wandered outside until I returned to my hometown at the age of 25. However, when I came back, my home and my father were already gone... Ah, I clearly know who my enemy is, but I don't have the ability or courage to find them..."

  Upon hearing this, the young man was stunned for a long time. "Are you trying to win my sympathy with this?"

  "Heh heh, sympathy? Wu Zhengxie forced a smile, then gazed at the rolling Yangtze River and the colorful neon lights on both banks. "I don't need anyone's sympathy, I can take care of myself! Because I'm not dead yet, I still have to find a way to avenge my father!"

  "Hey, God stick," the young man said with a serious face. "If what you're saying is true, then I'd advise you to just die already! Living like this is too tiring, dying would be a relief! As for revenge, haha, this world has never been fair to begin with. Having money and power is the only truth that matters. If you don't have those two things, then it's better to give up on that idea early on!"

  "Young man, do you think death can solve all problems?" Wu Zhengxie said with a straight face. "The six paths of reincarnation, being reborn as a human is not an easy thing. Do you think you'll be lucky enough to be reborn as a human in the next life? Do you think you'll be born into a rich and noble family in the next life? Ha ha, none of these are certain, young man. You're still young, so cherish your youth now."

  "Hah, cherish? The young man laughed, "I've seen through this society! It's too disgusting, too filthy! Even if I'm reincarnated and not reborn as a human, I'd be willing!"

  "Alas, haven't you ever thought that if you were to die, your father and loved ones would be devastated when they find out? Why don't you think of them for once?" Wu Zhengye exhorted with great effort, his body slowly inching closer to the young man, as he discovered that the latter seemed to have a determination to die!

  "Are you sad?" The young man shook his head and smiled, "They won't be sad. Even if they are really sad, it's because they don't understand me. To be honest, the universe is so vast, can we really enter hell and the six realms of reincarnation after we die? Honestly, I'm very skeptical!

  In the universe, intelligent life is absolutely not limited to humans, and there must be higher forms of life and more mysterious planets. As an ordinary person on Earth, I am simply unable to explore these unknown things. Now, my only thought is to take this opportunity to make a - crossing!

  "Damn it!" Wu Zheng cursed, "Where did you learn such nonsense? This is too unrealistic! Even if what you said was true, can't you bet your own life on it?"

  "Haha!" The young man laughed loudly and said, "Life or death, one gamble! Without taking the risk, where would the opportunity come from?"

  "Alright, divine stick, don't persuade me anymore. Look at this beautiful snowy New Year's Eve night, you'd better appreciate it by yourself, don't waste your time on me." After saying that, the young man straddled the railing and sat on the bridge's balustrade.

  "Wait!" Wu Zhengye was shocked and quickly spoke out, "Young man, think again, come down first!" As he spoke, Wu Zhengye approached the young man.

  He turned back and glanced at Wu Zhengye with a fierce gaze, the young man shouted, "Get out! You damn well better not come over here again, or believe me, I'll drag you down with me!"

  "Huh!" At these words, Wu Zhengye suddenly stopped in his tracks. "Young man, your ideas are too extreme. Can you come down first? Let's have a good talk..."

  "What's that person doing?" Wu Zhengye's voice was interrupted by a sound of surprise, turned back, and saw an Audi A6 stopped behind him, the window open, revealing a little girl with red hair.

  "Baby, let's hurry up, mom is still waiting for us to have dinner at home, don't linger here." A man's voice came from inside the car, judging from his tone, he shouldn't be very old either.

  Wu Zheng saw that the person who was speaking looked like he was only sixteen or seventeen years old, similar to the red-haired girl from earlier, and they were both dressed in a flashy manner.

  "Honey, wait a minute, let's wait for him to jump before we go!" The girl said coquettishly.

  "Damn it!" As soon as he heard this, Wu Zhengye suddenly cursed angrily, "What do you mean by this? You're just trying to stir up trouble on the first day of the new year, aren't you? Don't you know that 'saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda'?"

  "Hey! Old thing, who are you scolding? You dare to say it again, damn it!" The young man in the car shouted, and as soon as he finished speaking, the young man pushed open the car door and walked out. "You're a beggar, don't you want to live? Believe it or not, I'll make you 'commit suicide'! What are you looking at......" The young man glared at the man sitting on the railing and shouted loudly, "If you want to jump, hurry up, we still have to go back for New Year's Eve dinner after you're done!"

  "Wu Zhengxie stretched out his frozen white right hand, trembling as he pointed at the social youth who appeared in front of him. Just as he was about to speak, a sigh came from behind, 'Alas, you've seen it, this is the social atmosphere.'"

  Turning back, Wu Zheng saw the young man on the railing with a bitter smile, looking up at the sky. The young man let out a long sigh and said, "It's all right, what's there for me to miss in this kind of society?"

  "Huh? Wait a minute......" Wu Zhengye suddenly felt something was off, he heard despair and desperation from the young man's words.

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, after the young man finished speaking, he jumped down...

  "Ah! Wait...!" Wu Zhengye rushed forward in a hurry, taking three steps to cover two paces as he dashed towards the railing, stretching out his hands to make one last effort to grab hold of the young man.

  "Whoa!" A soft cry, Wu Zhengye's foot slipped...

  "Ah!!" Wu Zhengye was shocked and lost his color, his body suddenly crashed onto the railing, but due to the momentum of his forward rush, he...he involuntarily flipped over the railing, his body instantly falling towards the Fujiang River below the bridge.

  "Ahh!! Help!! Save me!! Save me!!!!!!"

  In desperation, Wu Zhengye shouted for help with all his might, his hands grasping wildly as if trying to grab onto something, anything that could be a lifesaver.

  Unfortunately, heaven was cruel and he didn't catch anything until Wu Zhengyi fell into the water.

  On the eve of the Lunar New Year, the snow was fluttering and the temperature was frighteningly low! The water of the Fujiang River had not yet frozen, but judging from its flow rate, it's likely that there were many ice blocks in between. In this situation, could Wu Zhengye and the young man who fell into the water survive?

  Not to mention whether they can survive, let's just say that on the bridge, the "dog man and woman" saw the two jump into the water and were also frightened. The man didn't say a word, took one step back to the car, and then the Audi A6 sped away...

  The next day, H city news.

  "Last night at 21:35, two young men jumped off a bridge railing in H city into the Fujiang River to commit suicide. As of today at 9:35, one man's body has been recovered and identified. According to investigations, this man was a security guard at Huaxia Shopping Mall. Due to emotional distress, he had thoughts of ending his life on impulse. The H city government urges, 'Life only happens once, do not take it lightly, that is an irresponsible attitude, irresponsible to oneself, parents, and family!'"

  In addition, government departments are working hard to search for another man's body...
