Not the right person, plum chicken is also tasteless

When I saw my wife walking to the artist's hunger strike bed with the artist's favorite plum chicken, this sentence came up unconsciously.

The artist's love was never his current wife. He started to love music. After meeting Yilan, he loved Yilan. After being forced to separate, he still loved Yilan. Now his wife is just a female math teacher who was forced by her mother to live with her. .

Lying in bed for eight days on hunger strike and waiting to die, looking back on my life, I don’t seem to have anything to be attached to. The artist’s favorites in his life should be the violin and Yilan, and he also thinks about his love for Yilan and his worries about being unable to love. Incorporated into the movement of the violin, the two have become one, and the violin is the carrier of all his life. The violin is broken and everything is gone. Yilan's final disapproval pushed the artist toward despair. Choosing suicide is the best way to face this unsustainable world.

And all of this was because of his wife, the wife he had never loved, who broke his violin and forcibly took away all the spiritual maintenance of his life. Even if it is the favorite plum chicken, what is the use of it, there is no more sorrow than death, all the material can no longer evoke the artist's desire for life, not to mention the wife who never loves or even resents it.

If it was Ylang Ylang who brought the plum chicken, would the artist sit up in shock and swallow the chicken? After all, when the god of death came, he was still very scared and asked, "Is it a little late?"
