“Wenwen?” When Chu Xiao saw Zhang Wenwen suddenly running away, she gave Chen Yu, who was standing in place, a puzzled glance, turned around and followed her.
Qin Yi and Shao Hui approached. Shao Hui looked at Chen Yu and asked, “Shishi, what did you just say to Zhang Wenwen?”
“This is their family’s privacy, so I can’t tell you, or rather you can ask Zhang Wenwen herself,” Chen Yu replied.
Qin Yi and Shao Hui looked at each other, and Shao Hui continued to ask Chen Yu, “Then…Ziyang’s situation, is there any help?”
“It’s not a question of whether he can be saved. It’s a question of whether to save him or not,” Chen Yu frowned and replied.
“What do you mean? Of course save him if he could be saved. What do you mean save him or not?” Qin Yi asked, puzzled.
Just then, a clamor suddenly erupted around the corner in the ward. Shao Hui and Qin Yi feared that something had happened inside, so they hurriedly ran back again.
After they ran away, Chen Yu thought for a moment and sent a message to Shao Hui: (Tell Zhang Wenwen that my seal can last for seven days. If her brother has made a decision in seven days, come to me again.)
After sending the message, Chen Yu turned around and left the ward through the elevator. Chen Yu was in a terrible mood throughout the whole journey, and her sullenness continued into the night. Even Lou Ming noticed it.
“It’s winter vacation. Why are you unhappy instead?” Lou Ming asked strangely.
“I encountered a matter that I don’t know how to solve,” Chen Yu said with a frown.
“Let me hear it. I’ll help you analyze.” It was rare for Lou Ming to see the little girl weighed down by something in her mind, so he couldn’t help but be a little curious.
“It’s just, I encountered a strange phenomenon today.” Chen Yu did not say Zhang Wenwen’s name, but made up a fictitious character, and then relayed the matter to Lou Ming, “So, Third Brother, do you think I should save this person or not?”
“You also said that the Life Exchange Technique is inherently against conventions, so the normal course of action should be to save this person,” Lou Ming said.
“But this person is willing to exchange his life for another person.” Chen Yu said, “In a way, the one he saved has a chance to continue living. If I step in to stop the Life Exchange Technique, then it’s the same as me killing another person.”
Lou Ming was slightly stunned: “But isn’t this person already supposed to die?”
“It’s still different. If the other party is forcibly seizing, or maliciously snaring, then I can stop it without scruples and comply with Divine Principles. But the problem is, it’s entirely consensual.” Chen Yu said, “It’s like some car accidents. The child on the road was supposedly the one to be hit, but the mother on the roadside instinctively saved him. If I have a way to stop this incident, do you think I should stop the mother from saving her own child?”
“…” This question immediately put Lou Ming into a dilemma too. This was a tragedy, and both endings were unpleasant.
“You know, it would have been fine if I didn’t see it, or if I lack the ability, and be helpless to do anything. But I saw it, and I also have the ability to stop it. Why do I feel now that I’ll be involved with these two people no matter who dies, ah? It’s so annoying, aahhh!” Chen Yu rolled on the sofa while hugging a pillow, upset. “Actually, I can’t quite understand his behavior. Won’t he make his family very sad like this too?”
