My five-year-old daughter jumped off a building at school. The homeroom teacher frantically called me, saying the child was dead and urging me to hurry to the school.
I simply turned off my phone and continued watching my show, completely unfazed.
In my previous life, I was falsely accused by that Dog Couple, which led to my disgrace, the destruction of my family, and my downfall.
In this life, I calmly observed the online insults directed at me, a cold smile curling at the corners of my mouth: the real show was just beginning.
“Teacher Xu, I gave you all the candy in my backpack. Please don’t make me go home? My mom hits me every day…” My daughter’s tearful voice echoed from the live stream in the kindergarten, while my husband wept bitterly, accusing me of “abuse.”
I pushed open the kindergarten's gate and walked in slowly, my gaze icy: “Excuse me, but I need to interrupt. The police are here.”

I pushed open the kindergarten's gate and walked in slowly, casting a cold glance at the whispering parents around me. My eyes finally landed on Zhou Mingze and Teacher Xu, who were tearfully accusing me of “abusing” my daughter.
“Excuse me, but I need to interrupt.” My tone was calm yet firm, successfully silencing the crowd.
Zhou Mingze looked up, his eyes red and filled with grief as if he had truly lost his beloved daughter.
“Mo Han, you finally made it! Duo Duo, Duo Duo she…” He choked on his words, trying to reach out for me. I sidestepped his touch and pulled out my phone from my bag, opening an audio clip.
“Duo Duo, sweetie, tell the teacher, does your mommy often hit you?” Teacher Xu’s voice was sickeningly sweet.
“Mommy doesn’t hit me…” My daughter’s innocent voice hesitated slightly.
“Sweetheart, if you say that, then Uncle and Auntie can’t help teach your mommy a lesson,” Zhou Mingze’s voice held a gentle yet threatening undertone.
“Uncle, Mommy really doesn’t hit me…”
"Duo Duo, as long as you do what we say, Uncle will buy you lots and lots of beautiful dresses and take you to the amusement park, okay?"
The audio continued to play, with Duo Duo intermittently describing how Zhou Mingze and Teacher Xu had incited her, revealing their true intention—to seize my property.
A wave of shock and disdain swept through the parents present as they turned their gazes toward Zhou Mingze and Teacher Xu.
Zhou Mingze and Teacher Xu's faces turned pale in an instant, their eyes flickering with fear, yet they were powerless to refute the accusations.
Two police officers walked in from outside, heading straight for Zhou Mingze and Teacher Xu.
"Zhou Mingze, Xu X, you are suspected of inciting a minor to commit perjury and are implicated in a conspiracy to commit fraud and harm. Please come with us," one of the officers said, displaying his police badge with a serious tone.
Zhou Mingze opened his mouth to protest but found himself unable to utter a word.
Defeated, he lowered his head as the officers placed handcuffs on him.
Teacher Xu slumped to the ground, her face ashen and her gaze vacant.
Watching the two being taken away, I felt no sense of satisfaction as I had imagined.
The truth was revealed, my grievances were cleared, but Duo Duo could never return.
Yet, the scars on Duo Duo's body remained a mystery; I sensed that there was a larger conspiracy lurking behind it all.
I turned and walked out of the kindergarten, taking a deep breath to steady myself.
The sunlight fell upon me, yet I felt no warmth. I pulled out my phone and dialed my secretary. "Help me find out about the coroner responsible for Duo Duo's autopsy. I want all his information—detailed as possible."
My tone was icy, devoid of any emotion.
The secretary immediately agreed. I knew he would do everything in his power to fulfill my request.
In the evening, I sat in my study, staring at the forensic report delivered by my secretary, my brow furrowed.
The forensic expert, Li Ming, had years of experience and a good reputation with no negative records.
However, his conclusion regarding Duo Duo's long-term abuse was the key factor that led to my conviction in my past life.
I rubbed my temples, feeling a wave of fatigue wash over me.
"President Su, there's one more thing," the secretary said hesitantly from the doorway.
"Speak," I replied, lifting my gaze to him.
"I found out that Li Ming and Zhou Mingze's father were once colleagues, and they seemed to have a good relationship," the secretary said cautiously.
I suddenly stood up, the doubts in my mind clearing in an instant.
So that's it! Zhou Mingze and Teacher Xu were willing to incite Duo Duo to lie and even create a false impression of her being abused just to seize my assets, and Li Ming was a part of their scheme.
I clenched my fists tightly, my nails digging into my flesh as a surge of intense anger rose within me.
"Keep investigating. I want to know all the details of their dealings!" My voice was cold, laced with determination.
