Chapter 334 Who Wins? She lifted her eyelids to reveal her cold, sharp eyes.
In that moment, everyone in the audience was staggered.
Georgia even subconsciously took several steps back, not daring to continue standing next to Selena.
Selena sat in a recliner, her face cold.
She looked straight at Estrella and asked the question, "What do you know about war?" Estrella was stunned for a moment before she cautiously replied, "The battlefield is cruel and many people will die, especially during the time of mixed war, it is a history of blood and humiliation." Sadness and anger are almost the first reactions that people have when that era is mentioned.

She sat up straight, her expression returned to her usual lazy, "Dottie’s life can be divided into three stages, in her girlhood, her family collapsed and she became uprooted, in youth, her love died in battle, lost his husband and son, in middle-age, she made success and fame, become a generation of the most famous actress.” When Selena said this, she paused and quietly looked at Estrella, "What else did you see in her body besides bravery, perseverance, sadness, and anger?" Estrella was bewildered.
She knew in her heart that since Selena had asked the question, it could never be a close equivalent of those three words above.
The is well known to the public, so there is no question of not having read the script and not being familiar with the plot, so everyone started to think about Selena's question.
Even Tina's face changed as she looked at Selena, her heart stirring for a moment, some emotion faintly flashed in her eyes, but it quickly steadied again.
Selena lowered her eyes, her voice lowered, carried a hint of pity, "She is just a woman, who has no one to rely on and struggles to survive. Her experience is nothing in front of the war and the interests of the state." "What is the deepest emotion of a woman who can never get rid of her sad fate? What is it that she wants most?" Estrella's nerves went numb at this moment, and she almost shuddered as she uttered that word, "It is hatred." "Not true." A fierce rebuttal came from the scene from Tina, "Dottie has said that she doesn't hate, it's written in the script that she doesn't hate anyone, she just desires to win." Selena's lips curled slightly, "You're wrong, it's not that she doesn't hate, it's just because she hates so many people, she even hates that era deeply.” Tina's face changed slightly and she bit her lips tightly.
Selena said lightly, "There is nothing unseemly about an emotion like hate, it often even makes a character seem more vivid than anger." "Dottie's family collapsed when she was a teenager and the culprit who caused this was not the invaders, it was the warlord." "Her husband was killed by the invaders, but he would have had a chance to come back, and the people who caused them to not even see each other for the last time were warlords." "Her child died because the warlord coveted her beauty.” Selena laughed mockingly and looked at Tina, "Miss Burns, putting aside those high moralities of whitewashing, if it was you who encountered this, would you hate the invaders or the warlords more?" Tina choked, but could not speak.
Selena's eyes were so dark that she even felt that what she had been adamant about, Dottie's sheer kindness and bravery, her worrying nature, seemed otherworldly and hypocritical.
But she was not someone who would easily admit defeat, she looked at Selena and asked rhetorically, "Even if you're right, the biggest emotion inside Dottie's heart is hatred, but how can you be sure that what Estrella performs with hatred will be better than me?" Selena stood up from her seat and looked at Estrella, "Dottie." Estrella immersed in Dottie's past subconsciously raised her head, then met Selena's eyes.
It was as if she saw a deep black vortex, that held something that made her soul tremble and touched her heart.
Selena looked at her quietly, the corners of her lips curved into a smile, and said faintly, "You can't escape, no one can escape." Estrellas eyes widened slightly.
Selena lowered her eyelashes, "You've been thinking about resisting all your life, but is your resistance meaningful? You couldn't avenge your family, your loved ones, and you didn't even keep your only child save." Estrella’s hands trembled as she clasped the fan in her hands with a death grip.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA mocking smile raised in Selena's lips, "No one cares about your life at all, for the survival of the whole country and nation, you are too weak to be worth mentioning." Estrellas eyebrows knitted, his body trembled, seemingly uncontrollably, her face revealed an expression worse than crying, her voice hoarse, "I am not reconciled to it." Selena had a touch of cold, but seemingly benevolent emotion in her eyes and she quietly said, "You have done nothing wrong, what is wrong is this era. As long as this era does not end, you can never get rid of it, and no one can be spared.” Estrella seemed to be on the verge of breaking as tears welled up in her eyes, muttering, "This era, this fucking era." Selena picked up a fan, slightly unfolded, covering half of her face, softly sang, "... who has the right to talk about the love in the play, | am the one in it." Across the screen, Estrella’s tears fell incessantly as she unfolded the fan and proceeded to sing, "Sing of sorrow and joy, sing of separation, nothing to do with me." Her voice was horribly hoarse and dripping with intense resentment and hatred.
Selena raised her eyebrows lightly, her soft voice showing its edge, "Anyone will die, but this nation, this country, will never die." Estrella’s song carried more resounding meaning, "... | have not dared to forget my country, even if no one knows me." Selena looked at Estrella quietly, "Want to go back to those peaceful times? Growing up with parents who pampered you, falling in love freely with someone you like, having children of your own bloodline." Estrella smiled, her song becoming more and more melodious, her smile growing brightly that carried determination as she longed to tear her chains apart.
The moment the wind whistled up, she fell to the ground, threw back her head and laughed like a madman.
The sound of laughter is like the wind being freed from its bonds and gaining true freedom.
Dottie only briefly gets what she wants most in the moment before death, that moment of turning away.
Then the darkness of eternal night fell.
Selena closed her eyes abruptly.
A dead silence fell over the scene.
Everyone, both on and off screen, feel silence for a moment.
