There was also a female college student whom this singer had supported all the way through her university education.

Yet, immediately after graduation, she completely cut off contact with the singer.

This singer was truly remarkable—even during his illness when he had no money, he still donated 15,000 yuan, and just before his death, he even donated his corneas.

In the end, overall, he helped many people, but when he needed help the most, these people all stood by indifferently, not a single one extending a hand. Some even had the nerve to say: "He helped me voluntarily, I never forced him..."

Through this, Wang Anjian came to understand the evil in human nature.

But he still didn't give up on doing such charitable public service.

He believed that whether others treated him right or not was beyond his control, but he could live up to his own conscience.

Of course, having recognized this reality, his subsequent assistance no longer involved direct cash donations.

Instead, he helped by purchasing daily necessities, school supplies, books, and other small items.

Naturally, he still provided financial support to those without sufficient means to afford medical treatment.

Supporting his frail body, Wang Anjian continued buying things online and having them delivered to various places.

It was at this moment that he received another text message.

The person who sent this message left a deep impression on him.

She was a little girl from his last volunteer teaching assignment in a mountain village.

About third grade! He had taught her.

The little girl's message read:

【Brother Wang, the backpack, erasers, pens, and other things you bought for me—they were clearly given to me, but my mom and grandma took them all away for my brother and younger brother to use, just not me. Brother Wang, what should I do?!】

Wang Anjian remembered this little girl had an older brother in fifth grade and a younger brother in first grade.

He had visited her home before.

He discovered her family was extremely biased in favor of boys over girls.

This included both the little girl's mother and grandmother.

To be honest, even now, there was something Wang Anjian couldn't understand.

You might expect fathers to favor sons over daughters, but why would mothers and grandmothers, being women themselves, also show such strong preference for boys over girls?

Or was it that the same hurts they experienced in their youth and childhood were now being inflicted upon their own children?

【I remember I bought a set for your brother and younger brother too, exactly the same as yours. So why did your mom and them take yours?】

Wang Anjian had specifically bought for the brothers too to prevent this exact situation—so they wouldn't lack anything and take the little girl's supplies.

The little girl quickly replied: 【Mom said my backpack and supplies are still usable, so she gave the new ones you bought me to my younger brother to use first, then put away the backpack you bought for my younger brother.】

【So, brother, can you help me?】

Reading this, Wang Anjian felt utterly powerless.

Because he had specifically bought a pink backpack for the little girl—the kind meant for girls.

He chose that color deliberately so boys wouldn't be interested, yet it still couldn't escape this fate?

After thinking for a moment, Wang Anjian quickly replied:

【Sorry, brother can't help you right now. You need to remember that the only one who can truly help you is yourself—no one can help you forever. You must study hard, break free from your family, and gain your own freedom. Until then, you'll have to endure. I know you might not fully understand these words now, but you must remember them.】

【Okay, brother, I've written down your words. I will remember them!】

【Also, brother, I see my mom and them coming back soon! I can't keep messaging you! I'll need to delete these messages later, otherwise if mom finds them, I'll get beaten. Goodbye, brother! I'll contact you again next time!】

The messages ended here.

Powerless, Wang Anjian tossed his phone aside.

He murmured to himself: "I'm sorry, in my current condition, I really can't help you. Even if I were perfectly healthy, I still couldn't help you—I can't change your family's mindset. I've done my best..."

Meanwhile, in the live stream room.

Ultimate Rich Kid commented: 【Sigh, what's praiseworthy about the apartment's cameras is how clearly they capture everything—even the text and images on phones are crystal clear. But what's not praiseworthy is also this clarity—it's too clear! My eyes seem to be leaking...】

Fairy Sister: 【Crying is crying, there's nothing shameful about it! What Wang Anjian has been doing is truly touching! Who would have thought that after entering the apartment, instead of using the 10,000 per day for his own treatment, he'd use it all for charity? He's really a "fool"—can't he be better to himself?! He's almost dead!!!!】

Little Dragon Girl: 【Yeah, unfortunately, even if he wants to be better to himself now, he probably doesn't have the chance anymore. Looking at his condition, heaven likely won't give him much longer to live...】

I Love Eating Shit: 【This young man ending up like this is entirely his own doing—can't blame others.】

Little Aunt: 【???】

Little Dragon Girl: 【???】

More confused people chimed in: 【???】

Ultimate Rich Kid @ I Love Eating Shit: 【What do you mean by that?】

I Love Eating Shit: 【Wait, let me go to the bathroom first, then I'll type and explain.】

So everyone waited about two minutes before seeing I Love Eating Shit's explanation:

【Everyone's fate and karma are predetermined. By involving himself so deeply in others' karma and trying to change it, plus having limited capacity to bear such karma himself, he exceeded his limits and brought misfortune upon himself. That's why he got cancer.】

After reading this, Ultimate Rich Kid said: 【Seriously? Why are you bringing feudal superstitions here?】

I Love Eating Shit: 【Young man, go ask your father whether this is feudal superstition or not.】

Domineering Female CEO: 【Rather than debating whether this is feudal superstition, we should focus on who will win this round. This is the sixth day—including today, there's still tomorrow left.】

【Currently there are still two lab rats. Let's not have both of them survive this round.】

Ultimate Rich Kid: 【Huh? If both Jiang Ran and Wang Anjian survive this round, how would that work? Would both be considered winners, and bettors for either get to share the prize pool money?】

Domineering Female CEO: 【Exactly.】

Ultimate Rich Kid: 【Damn, anyway nothing for me—that fool Mike!】

Back to reality.

Wang Anjian spent the entire day resting in bed.

He took his medicine and ate some bread.

He slept fitfully until evening, when he finally felt somewhat better.

So he got out of bed, went to the bathroom to clean up, and changed into fresh clothes.

Checking the time, he was surprised to find it was already 9:00 PM.

Having been cooped up indoors all day, he decided to go out for some fresh air.

But just as he opened his door and prepared to step out, a sinister wind swept through the hallway outside.

It made him sneeze violently.

After that massive sneeze, he instantly felt something wrong with his body.

His head swam and felt heavy—immediately he knew he'd taken a turn for the worse.

He could only consciously control his fall to the ground as gently as possible.

After collapsing, he knew he truly didn't have much longer to live—now he couldn't even leave his apartment.

Since things had reached this point, he needed to take preemptive action for his next steps.
