Chapter 1: 01 Blind credulity
Evening at the Su Residence.
“Sothing terrible has happened, the Second Miss has attempted suicide by slitting her wrists.”
A piercing scream tore through the heavens.
Upon hearing it,
there was a commotion in the living room, and everyone imdiately rushed towards a room on the second floor.
Su Ran slowly stood up, watching the silhouette in black leading the crowd with a sneer curling the corners of her lips, and she scoffed.
...
After a mont, she decided to follow them.
The once familiar room now seed completely foreign to her eyes.
The warm and simple design had transford into a spread of pink, from modesty to luxury, from simplicity to complexity, without a trace of its forr self.
This used to be her room.
“Xinyan, don’t scare , wake up, please wake up…”
The man’s anxious voice was trembling slightly, completely disregarding the water all over the floor, he knelt on one knee, carefully cradling the woman in his arms, his hand tightly clutching her bleeding wrist.
Panic spread across his usually cold and handso face.
“Xinyan…”
“Xinxin…”
Then, two more shrill screams rang out.
Su Ran approached the bathroom and what t her eyes was a bathtub filled with red, the bright red bloodstained water flowing over the edges onto the tiles, instantly staining them like blossoms of Manzanita.
The woman lay lifelessly in the man’s embrace, her face deathly pale without a hint of color, and her slender, white left wrist continued to ooze blood.
Su Ran’s eyes flickered with surprise.
“Call an ambulance, call an ambulance quickly…”
Tan Lirong’s shrill voice carried a heavy sob.
If sothing happened to her precious daughter, she wouldn’t want to live either!
Just as everyone was panicking, Su Xinyan’s thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.
Her pale face, indistinguishable between water and tears, looked weakly at the handso man before her.
“Brother Heng…”
“Xinyan, you’re awake.”
The man’s eyes suddenly brightened, his voice excited with a joy and relief that was all too apparent.
Su Xinyan gave him a soft smile, then turned her gaze to Su Ran who stood indifferently aside.
A hint of guilt and vulnerability washed over her eyes, her expression turning somber.
“Sister, I’m sorry for what I’ve done to you, I hope you can forgive …”
As her words fell, she once again lapsed into unconsciousness.
“Xinyan…”
“Xinxin…”
Everyone gasped, and the room once again erupted into chaos.
Watching Su Xinyan fall into unconsciousness, Su Ran tugged at the corner of her mouth, her face impassive with neither sympathy nor concern.
“Xiao Ran, what did you say to Xinyan?”
An angry voice suddenly erupted.
Su Ran looked up to et Gu Heng’s dark and fierce gaze, feeling utterly numb inside.
“What do you think I said to her?”
Her calm and nonchalant tone caused Gu Heng to montarily hesitate.
At that mont, servants announced the arrival of the ambulance. Gu Heng reined in his emotions, rose to his feet with Su Xinyan in his arms, and gave Su Ran, who was watching coldly from the side, a detached look.
“We need to talk so ti,” he said, with a tone that was colder and more distant than she had ever heard from him before.
Su Ran’s lips curved slightly, her expression bright and unrestrained.
Talk?
What was there left to discuss between them?
Such clumsy and despicable tactics, ti and again, everyone acted like fools, blindly trusting, fearing that Su Xinyan would be hard in the slightest.
Utterly foolish.
She didn’t know what kind of charm Su Xinyan possessed that made everyone believe her unconditionally, including…
The not-so-foolish Gu Heng.
