Shen Yue stared at Martha for a long time.
She thought, maybe this is fate.
If you are destined to suffer, you should not desire happiness that does not belong to you. Otherwise, fate will push you back into the darkness without warning and mercilessly when you think you have seen the light.
And you have no chance to fight back.
Shen Yue sat next to Martha, reached out and held Martha's hand which had become cold, and suddenly felt very painful.
The oppression coming from her heart was like a hammer, hammering hard at every inch of her flesh and blood.
But the strange thing is that even so, Shen Yue didn't feel like crying.
The last time she cried, it was because she was afraid of losing.
But now, she has lost it, so there is no need to cry.
Shen Yue sat next to Martha for 30 minutes and did nothing.
At the 31st minute, she stood up, pressed the headset, and called No. 14 as usual.
No. 14 was sitting on the sofa in the prison guard's room, listening to a group of gossipers in Building No. 3 talking about the recent love triangle drama, when a familiar notification tone came from his headphones.
This is Shen Yue’s exclusive prompt music.
No. 14 sighed, stopped the happy call with Building 3, and answered Shen Yue's call.
"What can I do for you?"
No. 14 gave a formulaic reply, but he knew it very well in his heart. Usually, Shen Yue would have just finished lunch with Martha at this time, and contacting him would just be to ask him to go upstairs to clean up the dishes and take the dirty clothes to wash. When he was lucky, he could even see Martha excitedly changing Shen Yue's clothes and then asking him which one looked best.
Of course, his personal idea is to wear a neat black leather jacket, paired with thigh-length shorts, with his long hair tied into a big braid. He looks cool and fierce, and at first glance he is a character who should not be messed with in prison!
But Martha always prefers to dress Shen Yue in skirts, especially white skirts. She praises Shen Yue for looking beautiful in skirts, while mocking his vulgar taste.
No. 14 would roll his eyes silently in his heart every time, but would continue to put on a formal smile on his face.
He was considered a senior prison guard in the prison and had seen all kinds of methods. He knew very well why Martha did this.
Martha was trying to win him over.
He is the person closest to Shen Yue in the entire prison except Martha, and he knows what Shen Yue's true character is. More importantly, he is very strong and smart. As long as he wants, he can even hide it from outside eyes. It will be beneficial to win him over.
In fact, he was indeed somewhat interested in Martha's little tricks. After all, changing Shen Yue's clothes and studying different hairstyles really gave him a strange sense of accomplishment.
No. 14 was thinking about it, wondering what he should do to make Shen Yue ask him to help comb her hair. Usually, it was Martha who played with Shen Yue's hair, and he also wanted to play.
"Number 14, anything I want, the outside world will give it to me, right?"
Shen Yue's voice was flat. If she had to speak, it would sound like a machine, rigid and without any life.
No. 14 frowned. Shen Yue's state was different from usual. "Of course."
No. 14 did not lie. Ever since he took over the management of Shen Yue, people outside had repeatedly reminded him that Shen Yue was special.
