Chapter 236
"Indeed, just a disdained actor, whether I cry or laugh, I am nothing more than a plaything for the adults," Chu Qingyi's voice grew weaker and weaker. "Because I received so little, I am grateful for every bit given to me, even if I have to repay it with my life."
"Is your death worth it?"
"The life of an actor is lived on the stage. Some people never encounter a good play in their entire lives. But when they do, they must pour their heart and soul into it."
"That single strike of mine was the greatest highlight of my life, despite it being only one."
Chu Qingyi's voice grew fainter, and in the end, he strangely began to sing softly.
"Sorrow spills as red droplets, best not to indulge in love, there is no place to place my longing in the world…"
"If flowers bloom again, they are not from familiar tree, clouds can only grieve in brief pass…"
He would never sing again, not completing the final verse. His head rested on Cheng Dalei's shoulder as his life ended.
