"He had... severe depression?" Lin Jingchen couldn't believe it.
Although he had seen Bai Chen's entire life, he had never known Bai Chen suffered from depression.
"Yes. He already had it in his original world, but it wasn't obvious. After he came to this world, though, he felt completely lost. Everything he did was for other people. Even if something made him unhappy or he was treated unfairly, he could only endure it. There was nothing else he could do, because this wasn't his body.
