If I still had any lingering thoughts, I definitely wouldn't waste my time digging up the truth behind the kidnapping from years ago. But I have nothing left. Why is it that they can all live their lives in peace?
On the day of the kidnapping, my mother had just had a huge argument with Lin Che. She couldn't stand his extravagant lifestyle and urged him to get his act together. The argument escalated with each of us exchanging heated words. After Lin Che slammed the door and left, he took the opportunity to plan the kidnapping, ensuring that my mother would feel immense guilt whenever she thought back on that day.
In the period right after his death, my mother indeed felt guilty; every time she cried, she would mention that argument. I tried to comfort her, but once, with red eyes, she pointed at me and accused, "It's all your fault! You killed your brother!" From that moment on, she was convinced of this idea, and her mental state gradually improved.
When Lin Rong forcibly sent me to a psychiatric hospital as punishment, she merely watched coldly. With just one word from her, I wouldn't have to suffer there, but she said nothing. Their sense of peace was built on my blood and tears. It was as if the harsher they tortured me, the more they could absolve themselves.
When my father dragged me back home, I knew what he intended to do. He was also a book traveler; he understood that I couldn't speak about this part of the plot, but he didn't want to complicate matters further. He had long known that everything was part of Lin Che's plan and that it was all fake.
I accidentally overheard him talking to his system in his study. "What Lin Che did is truly outrageous! Book travelers should not affect each other!" "Given the circumstances, we can only put Lin Chi in a difficult position; we can't let others discover our true identities." He knew everything but said nothing.
I did nothing wrong; just because of that phone call, I became the scapegoat of this family. They insisted on blaming Lin Che's "death" on me.
This time, I really fell hard on the back of my head. The system told me that I would leave this world earlier than expected. How nice. I quietly waited for death. It was just that it was very noisy around me.
I could hear Gu Yan's desperate cries: "How is this possible? How can you die just from a fall? I don't believe it!" "The family doctor clearly said there was nothing wrong with him!" "Get out! All of you, get out!"
Before long, Lin Rong's voice also rang in my ears. "Stop going crazy! You're disturbing my brother!" Gu Yan retorted, "You still know he's your brother? Did you think of him as your brother when you were tormenting him?" "Now you come here to act all concerned, it's disgusting!"
"I'm... sorry!" "Get lost!" Lin Che also came by, kneeling at my bedside and crying, saying he didn't mean to, but he was kicked out by Gu Yan. My mom came less often; Gu Yan didn't dare to do anything to her.
She held my hand and kept saying, "Mom was wrong, please wake up, okay?" Gu Yan coldly interjected, "Mom, you were so harsh on Chi usually; don't pretend to be the good person now." My mom got angry at her and sarcastically replied, "How good have you been to him? Don't think I don't know; you always hurt his feelings."
The two of them started bickering back and forth. I opened my eyes amidst their argument. They both looked over at me: "You're awake! Finally awake!" I frowned, not wanting to respond.
Lin Che had been taken to the police station. From what Gu Yan told me, he wasn't even a Lin family child; that gardener was his real father.
The real son of the Lin family may no longer be alive. He had known for a long time and then came up with...
