I am terminally ill, but I am healing the world with my songs

#3 - Chapter 3 The world is broken, warm people patch it up

"Cough, cough! Cough… cough cough!!"

After finishing the entire song, Wen He, afraid that his severe coughing would worry them, quickly turned off the live stream.

He hadn't expected that the accumulated coughing from a song lasting less than two and a half minutes would be so terrible.

Even though he had tried his best to restrain it, blood would spill out with every cough.

At this moment…

He heard the sound of the door opening.

"Coughing again! Coughing again! I could hear you coughing before I even entered! Why aren't you coughing yourself to death!"

Wen He's mother, who had just gotten off work, was full of pent-up anger and had nowhere to vent it, so she pushed the door open with resentment.

She saw Wen He coughing with his hands covered in blood, and a lot of it had even splattered on the floor.

Wen He's mother frowned.

"What's going on? Did you dump out all the Chinese medicine because it's too bitter!"

"Mom… I took it all…" Wen He replied bitterly.

He didn't understand why his mother always thought of him in the most malicious way.

This cough was so torturous, how could he possibly dump the medicine just because it was bitter?

If that Chinese medicine really worked, he would rather skip meals and drink it every day.

Unfortunately…

That Chinese medicine was a folk remedy that she had asked for from her eldest aunt in her hometown.

It wasn't a proper medicinal prescription at all.

It even required bizarre things like dandruff as ingredients.

"What a sin!" Wen He's mother said angrily, turning to make a phone call.

Wen He coughed twice more and then began to clean up the mess.

The voices of Wen He's mother and eldest aunt came from the cramped living room filled with clutter.

"Yes, it's getting more and more serious. What's going on!"

"I haven't mistreated him. I feed him well, but he still got this strange disease!"

"The hospital? Why go to the hospital? Hospitals are just for ripping people off! A simple checkup costs thousands! Those foreign medicines are terribly expensive, and they're poisonous!"

"Work a little harder and help me ask if there are any better methods…"

After that, Wen He's mother began chatting with her eldest aunt about family matters.

Wen He knew that soon, a new folk remedy would appear, claiming to cure all diseases.

Especially coughing, it would be a cure-all.

He used to have great hope for these things.

But after one disappointment after another, he became numb.

In the past, Wen He especially understood his parents.

He knew that they had worked hard all their lives, never had a good life, and never ate anything good, spending their entire lives in this limited space.

It was reasonable to save money and be reluctant to go to the hospital.

Later, after he accidentally overheard Wen He's mother's conversation with her eldest aunt, he realized that things were not as he had imagined.

"It's too expensive. Is there anything cheaper? It's not a serious illness. It's easy to cure, why does he need to take such expensive medicine."

In the beginning, her eldest aunt recommended proper Chinese medicine several times, but Wen He's mother rejected them all, naturally because of the money.

In the end, the eldest aunt was forced to give a very unreliable folk remedy, and also warned that this thing might not have any effect.

But when she learned that the materials for this folk remedy only cost thirty yuan and could be used for two months of treatment, Wen He's mother happily agreed.

Wen He gradually understood a truth…

He wasn't a child.

His birth was just a mistake by his parents, and he was forced to be a investment machine.

Wen He's father and mother didn't love him, and he wasn't a child they were willing to give birth to.

They just couldn't bear to spend the money on an abortion, so they gave birth to him.

Wen He's only purpose was to earn enough money for his parents when he grew up.

So that this wouldn't be a losing business.

Treating his illness was also because they were really afraid that something would happen to him, leading to a loss of their investment.

[#1, Have you ever thought about dying, but before that, please listen to the song 'The World is Beautiful and Interlocked with You,' and then reconsider.]

[#5, After listening to 'The World is Beautiful and Interlocked with You,' I realized that there are so many strangers in the world who love me…]

[#8, Tonight is destined to be an emo night, countless people broke down and cried after listening to this song!]

The song that Wen He sang in the live stream quickly topped the trending charts on the internet and occupied three of the top spots.

And this song, without anyone knowing, was uploaded to major music platforms.

On major mainstream platforms such as Penguin, Kugou, Wangyi, and Kuwo, the song 'The World is Beautiful and Interlocked with You' directly dominated the top three positions!

Especially on Wangyi, it became an undisputed hit with a huge lead in popularity.

"Will someone like me, a social maggot, be cared about…?"

"I don't know about others, but at least I hope you can be happy, and you're not a social maggot. You're much better than you think. Don't belittle yourself. I'll be angry!"

"You! Yes, I'm talking about you in front of the screen! Your happiness will be within reach in the future!"

"The world is broken and tattered, but warm people are sewing it up. I'm really crying…"

"The person who wrote this song must be a very gentle person!"

Comments like these were becoming more and more common under the song.

Many people recounted their pain and suffering.

They thought that in the 999+ comment section, their insignificant comment would sink into the sea as usual.

But they didn't expect that it would attract waves of people to listen carefully.

They comforted him, they gave him ideas, and they hoped that he could overcome the difficulties.

This was not an isolated case, almost every comment was like this.

At the same time, this song brought a tsunami-like impact to the Chinese music scene.

Many well-known singers felt inferior after hearing this song.

"Wen He? Is this his real name? Where did this original singer come from? He wrote the music and lyrics. It feels like the Chinese music scene is about to welcome a new god!"

"Such a strong foundation, his singing skills are too strong, it's like being there!"

"The lyrics are simple, but you can't find any fault with them. This is the true meaning of simplicity!"

"I didn't expect that someone could make me cry these days. This original singer named Wen He is not simple…"

Except for a few singers who were born with a silver spoon in their mouths.

The vast majority of singers have experienced a rather dark period.

Even though they have now become the backbone of the Chinese music scene.

But this song can still bring them considerable emotional fluctuations.

As people who have already achieved some success in this field, it is not easy for them to be moved by a song.

They all wanted to get to know Wen He, the singer who sang this song.

Not only that, almost everyone on the internet was looking for clues about Wen He.

In the end, they all locked their target on that live stream room.

"Oh my god, the person who sang this song is actually a VTuber?"

"Perhaps it is because he is an ordinary person that he can sing to our hearts…"

"When will Wen He start broadcasting? I really want to meet this stranger who healed me."

"Although I don't know if he will broadcast tonight, I've already decided to stay up all night squatting in the live stream room."
