Chapter 254 Videotape
Back at the villa, Li Zhanchuan immediately had someone prepare equipment to play the videotape. Lin Chuyue stood to the side, watching with a solemn expression as he carefully inserted the old videotape into the player.
As the tape slowly rotated, a patch of static appeared on the screen, then the image gradually became clear.
The room was dimly lit, with an old chandelier hanging on the wall, emitting a faint yellow glow. The camera shook slightly, as if someone had accidentally touched it.
The next second, a woman's voice rang out, tinged with tension and suppressed emotion: "This matter can't be delayed any longer; we must deal with it as soon as possible."
Lin Chuyue's heart tightened suddenly; she recognized the voice!
It's Shen Fang!
In the video, a figure walks into the frame. She is wearing a dark cheongsam and sits on the sofa in the center of the room with a cold and sharp look in her eyes.
A man was sitting opposite her.
Gu Zhengting!
Lin Chuyue's fingers tightened, and her breathing became slightly rapid.
Shen Fang and Gu Zhengting? Why are they in the same frame?
In the video, Gu Zhengting's expression is gloomy, as if he is thinking about something, while Shen Fang urges him in a low voice: "Have you thought this through? If what she has gets out, we will both be finished."
Gu Zhengting raised his eyes and looked coldly at Shen Fang: "How can you be so sure she knows?"
Shen Fang scoffed, her gaze turning icy: "President Gu, do you think I'm a fool? Besides her, who else knows what happened back then?"
The screen shook slightly, and Lin Chuyue's heart pounded in her throat.
Who are they talking about?
Is she Li Zhanchuan's mother?
Or...her mother?
Lin Chuyue dug her nails into her palms, forcing herself to calm down and continue watching.
The scene continued, and after a moment of silence, Gu Zhengting slowly spoke: "If she really knew, do you think she would let us go so easily?"
Shen Fang sneered: "That's why she has to die."
The moment those words were spoken, the entire room seemed to freeze over.
Lin Chuyue's fingertips trembled violently, as if her heart had been gripped tightly.
Countless images flashed through her mind—her death in her past life, Shen Fang's relentless pressure, her father's indifference, Gu Yanchuan's coldness...
She finally understands!
Her mother did not die in an accident!
Shen Fang and Gu Zhengting conspired to kill her mother!
Li Zhanchuan's face also darkened completely. His eyes were fixed on the screen, and his eyes were filled with turbulent emotions.
His mother's death was also an accident.
But what if Shen Fang and Gu Zhengting had this kind of conversation—
Does this mean that his mother's death was also related to them?
The videotape was still playing, and Shen Fang's voice continued: "Once we've dealt with her, the rest will be simple. Have you arranged your men?"
Gu Zhengting looked at her coldly, a chilling smile curving his lips: "Shen Fang, I'm warning you, this matter must be handled cleanly and thoroughly, leaving no room for any incriminating evidence."
Shen Fang snorted softly, slowly stood up, walked in front of the camera, a cryptic smile playing on her lips: "You think I'd leave any evidence?"
After she finished speaking, she raised her hand and gently pressed something.
The video abruptly stopped, and the screen went completely dark.
The recording has ended.
The room fell into a deathly silence.
Lin Chuyue stood there, her body ice-cold, her fingers clenched into fists, her nails digging deep into her palms, yet she felt no pain whatsoever.
Shen Fang's words seemed to strike her heart with a powerful impact, as if they had traveled through the long river of time.
Her mother... was murdered by them!
The thing she could never let go of from childhood has finally been answered.
Did she return from the dead just to uncover this truth?
Li Zhanchuan slowly raised his head, looked at Lin Chuyue, his eyes deep: "What do you plan to do?"
Lin Chuyue slowly closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and forcibly suppressed all her turbulent emotions. When she opened her eyes, her gaze was already icy cold.
“Shen Fang—” she said, word by word, “She owes me, and it’s time to pay it back.”
Li Zhanchuan looked at her, his eyes flickered slightly, then he nodded, his voice low and firm: "I'll stay with you."
In this round, the real counterattack is about to begin!
