The Outcast Heiress's Secret Identities

Chapter 1: 01 Blind credulity



Evening at the Su Residence.

"Something 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 immediately 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 moment, she decided to follow them.

The once familiar room now seemed completely foreign to her eyes.

The warm and simple design had transformed into a spread of pink, from modesty to luxury, from simplicity to complexity, without a trace of its former self.

This used to be her room.

"Xinyan, don't scare me, 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 handsome face.

"Xinyan..."

"Xinxin..."

Then, two more shrill screams rang out.

Su Ran approached the bathroom and what met 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 something 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 handsome 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 me..."

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 meet 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 momentarily hesitate.

At that moment, 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 some time," 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, time and again, everyone acted like fools, blindly trusting, fearing that Su Xinyan would be harmed 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.
