Sister... Xiao Yan...
He knew all along!
From the very beginning, he knew about my relationship with Su Qing!
He knows I am Lin Yan!
He knows I am Su Qing's half-sister!
He looked at me like a fool, trying hard to imitate his so-called "white moonlight," his precious sister. He even had Su Qing personally design jewelry symbolizing our sisterly bond, which he then "bestowed" upon me!
He is reveling in it!
Reveling in the twisted sense of control he has over us, playing with us like puppets in his hands!
The overwhelming shock nearly knocked me off my feet. I clutched the cold edge of the safe, gasping for breath.
No... it's not enough...
I need more direct evidence!
Proof that he tampered with the notification letter! Proof that he has been plotting this since ten years ago!
I stumbled to the desk and opened his computer.
The startup password was still Su Qing's birthday.
The familiar desktop was impeccably tidy.
I forced myself to calm down and opened the surveillance software.
Sure enough, it was connected to his home system and stored a wealth of historical footage!
My fingers trembled as I rewound the time.
2013... the days following the college entrance examination...
Found it!
The surveillance footage marked "Building Entrance"!
The timestamp was from that afternoon ten years ago.
In the video, a girl in a school uniform, slightly awkward and thin, hurriedly ran out of the building with her head down.
It was me!
It was Lin Yan from ten years ago!
Just as she turned the corner, a white card slipped out of her pocket.
In the next moment, a tall figure appeared in the frame.
It was the young Lu Chen Zhou.
He wore a white shirt, exuding a cool demeanor, like a celestial being banished from the heavens.
He bent down and picked up a card.
As the camera zoomed in, the writing on the card became clear—
"College Entrance Examination Admission Ticket Name: Lin Yan"
He stared at the admission ticket, his face devoid of any expression, yet his gaze was unfathomable.
Then, he slipped the ticket into his pocket.
The next day.
The surveillance footage showed that he made a phone call.
Though I couldn't hear the words, I vividly remembered that afternoon when I received a call from that cosmetic surgery clinic, informing me that Mr. Lu had already scheduled a consultation for me regarding "facial contour optimization"...
In that moment, all my hopes, all my self-deceptions, came crashing down!
It was him!
From the moment he picked up that admission ticket, he had begun to plot!
He knows my name and the relationship I have with Su Qing!
He has tampered with my aspirations, arranged for my surgery, step by step pushing me into the abyss of being Su Qing's substitute!
Why?!
Why is he doing this?!
Is it simply because Su Qing chose to go to Paris to pursue her dreams, and he needs a replacement that will never leave him?!
At that moment, my gaze swept across the computer screen and landed on an inconspicuous audio file.
The file was named: "About Her."
The creation date was just a few days before Su Qing left for abroad.
Driven by some strange impulse, I clicked on it.
Lu Chen Zhou's familiar yet cold voice slowly flowed out, coiling around my nerves like a venomous snake.
"Su Qing is going to Paris. She said there is freedom and art that she desires."
His voice carried a hint of barely perceptible sarcasm.
"But Xiao Yan... ha, Lin Yan, she doesn't even have a university to choose from."
“She relies on me so much, needs my support, needs me to give her a future like Su Qing’s.”
“She will always stay by my side, always be grateful to me, and will never leave for some so-called dream like Su Qing did.”
“This is what I want—a perfect moonlight.”
“A moonlight that will never wither, that will always belong to me.”
The recording ended.
The office was dead silent.
Only my heavy, raspy breaths filled the air.
My blood felt cold, inch by inch.
My soul seemed to be pulled from my body, floating in the icy air, watching that pitiful creature curled up in the darkness, trembling.
It turned out he didn’t choose me because he loved Su Qing and couldn’t have her.
It turned out he had despised Su Qing’s independence and pride from the very beginning.
What he wanted was never Su Qing.
