My House of Horrors - Chen Ge
Chapter 563 - Part 2
Friend, I understand that there are many terrible things and people in the world—they are all around us—but other than them, there are still many more beautiful things in the world. The mix of good and bad forms the foundation of our lives. I think that your teacher has quite a good point—you are someone who sincerely placed himself in the shoes of your patients and are a good man, but you are not suitable to be a suicide prevention hotline operator.
You said it yourself, you hope to change people into someone who can absorb and release love, but you did not realize that you have been subconsciously and slowly influenced by your callers. Your world was slowly corrupted by these terrible things, and all you can see are those ugly and disgusting things.
Actually, the world hasn’t changed; it has always been like that. The thing that has changed is you.
Actually, we are rather similar. We are the type of idiot who will give up everything to place ourselves in the shoes of other people, but in the end, we end up losing ourselves.
But we’re also completely different. The road that I chose is different from yours. You chose to silently keep everything in your heart until, eventually, you couldn’t fit anything in anymore and collapsed. Actually, you do not need to lead such a tired life. You cannot change everyone, but the person whom you can change is yourself. I’m not trying to get you to change who you are—I just hope you’ll understand your own importance.
If you’ve seen so much evil in the world, why would you risk your life to save a dead person? Did you realize that this was a trap from the very beginning, speculate about my intention, and then purposely do something like that?
Yes, I’ve met many bad people, but I was not influenced by them. I have my own way of living, and I have my own principles. No matter what they said or did, I knew that I only had to make sure that I did one thing well.
To be myself. Society is very cruel, but I made sure to maintain my own warmth. I do not care about the chaos in the world; I only hope that I can maintain my honesty and kindness and stay true to myself. That is more than enough.
Stop holding on to so much pain. There are so many things in this world that you have not experienced. There are so many people standing behind you, and they have placed their last hope on you. You should try to live the life that they were not given on their behalf. Become the person that they want to be with their hopes and dreams—I think that is the real thing that they want to see.
You shouldn’t trap yourself inside that small circle. You are not alone. You should let them enjoy happiness and light. After all, that is the thing that they desire the most in their lives. The best life is one with spices. Why don’t you follow me for now? I can introduce you to many new friends to regain that warmth and happiness.
Don’t worry, I don’t ask for anything else. I just want you to realize, even if the whole world has abandoned you, there is someone who is always willing to stand by your side.

Chapter 724
When bad luck befalls a person, does with darkness in their heart will curse the world. What they need is not pity but partners. However, for those with kindness, they will choose to suffer everything silently, to help cover up the wounds of this imperfect world and repay its bad fortune with kindness and warmth.
Chapter 743
When a person tries to mix in with the rest, he will only make his life that much more tiring. To give up on one’s hobbies and habits just to pander to others is truly a sad life. Everyone is their own main character. What we need to do is to spend time and effort on things that can make us truer to our real selves. Be your best self. When you bloom, the butterfly will come.
Chapter 838
During an avalance, there is not one snowflake that is innocent. Everyone just wishes that the tragey not befall them, and that gives the bullies the chance to act freely. When bulliying happens and someone dares to stand upand say something or give the bullied some comfort, things might end up differently.
Chapter 1206
There is no seperation between kindness and evil in this world. Kindness can be corrupeted and evil can choose salvation and embrace hope, the choice always there.
