Stepdaughter of a wealthy family? The little darling of a Beijing tycoon

In the end, all the long-buried truths were slowly revealed by Shen Jingshu.

"Xiao Yin, it all started with a chance encounter. You met a stranger on a campus study forum because of a difficult problem. You hit it off immediately, became friends, and often discussed coursework and exchanged learning experiences together."

Over time, the topics gradually expanded from books to daily life. You shared each other's joys and sorrows, and the trivial things in your lives, and slowly became confidants who could talk about anything.

Even through the screen, you two felt a tacit understanding and shared a deep connection, and a subtle, ambiguous affection began to blossom between you. You could clearly sense that you had already fallen for the girl on the other side of the screen, so you took the initiative to suggest meeting in person.

But at that time she was particularly timid and hesitant, and did not agree for a long time. She said that she was afraid that meeting in person would ruin the beautiful relationship, that she was afraid of disappointing each other, and that maintaining the current relationship was good enough.

You respected her wishes, and the two of you tacitly agreed never to meet again.

But just half a month later, the girl who had been timid and avoiding you suddenly took the initiative to contact you and mustered up the courage to ask you to meet in person.

She said she had thought it through and didn't want to have any regrets; she wanted to see you for real.

You decided on a coffee shop near the school as your meeting place.

But the person who showed up that day wasn't the girl who had chatted with you for half a year and understood all your secrets, but your current girlfriend—Xiao Shizi.

Upon first meeting, a subtle sense of disappointment and disillusionment might cross your mind. The person before you has a personality and manner of speaking that are completely different from the gentle and considerate online friend you had in mind.

But you quickly suppressed that feeling. You didn't want to think about it too much, simply attributing it to the stark contrast between your online and offline personalities.

After spending several time together in person, you gradually adapted and even rediscovered a sense of familiarity and warmth, thus putting aside all your doubts.

The turning point that truly solidified your relationship came after a sudden tragedy.

That night, Xiao Shizi called you in a panic and helplessness, her voice trembling, saying that her roommate had suddenly lost her mind and jumped to her death from the school rooftop.

With such a big incident happening in the dormitory, she was filled with fear and dared not go back to live there.

You have a soft heart, so you came to the school overnight and took her out of the dormitory, where she was filled with fear and anxiety. You then settled her in the house you rented off-campus.

It was precisely because of this unexpected turn of events that your relationship naturally grew closer, and you eventually confirmed your romantic relationship.

You always thought that the girl you fell in love with and spent two years with was the one who accompanied you from online to offline.

But you never knew that the person who truly accompanied you through countless nights and whose soul resonated with yours had already passed away in that rooftop accident.

And the little persimmon beside you, from beginning to end, is someone who takes someone else's place in a relationship.

As she spoke, Shen Jingshu turned her head and looked at Xiao Shizi, who was standing to the side with a ferocious expression and was filled with embarrassment and anger.

"As for you, little persimmon."

You and your roommate, Tian Tian, ​​were once inseparable best friends. Tian Tian once shared with you about meeting a kindred spirit online, and even showed you a picture of Xiao Yin.

With just one glance, you fell for Xiao Yin, a complete stranger. Based on a single photograph, you were captivated by his handsome appearance.

Because of her timidity, Tian Tian was afraid that meeting in person would shatter this beautiful moment, so she hesitated and refused to meet Xiao Ying.

At that moment, you even felt a faint sense of relief.

You secretly thought, since Sweetie doesn't want it, doesn't that mean the opportunity has fallen into your lap?

You shared a dorm room and were close, so Tian Tian was completely unaware that you already knew her account and password.

You secretly logged into Sweetie's social media account, went through all their chat history, and figured out their chatting habits and the trivial things they talked about.

A bold and crazy idea takes root in your heart.

Since Sweetie doesn't want this handsome guy, then you can have him.

You impersonate Tian Tian and take the initiative to ask Xiao Yin to meet you in person.

When you finally meet her in person, you find that Xiao Yin in real life is far more dazzling than in photos. At that moment, you are completely captivated.

After that, you juggled things between the two sides.

While secretly continuing to contact Xiao Yinwei using Tiantian's account;

On the other hand, they pretended to persuade Tian Tian that since she had no intention of developing the relationship, she should simply cut ties, delete her as a friend, and stop bothering her.

During that time, Tian Tian was preoccupied and only wanted to focus on her studies, not wanting to get involved in relationships. She listened to her best friend's advice and stopped logging into that account.

But the truth will eventually come out.

Living under the same roof, Tian Tian still inadvertently discovered that someone had been logging into her account and chatting with that online friend.

She immediately questioned Xiaoshizi about why she had done such a thing.

In your panic, you made up an excuse, claiming that you were just trying to be kind and help her test the other person.

Sweetie is not stupid.

She read through the subsequent chat history and learned that you had already met in private, which instantly ignited her anger.

She clearly tells you that this is deception, that it's unfair to Xiaoying, and that you must confess the whole truth.

But you don't dare.

You know very well that in terms of looks, family background, and conversation, you are no match for Tian Tian in any way.

You are inherently insecure.

Having finally grasped this long-awaited destiny, how could you bear to give it up?

But Tian Tian is upright and honest, and she believes that this kind of scam is wrong. She is very determined to tell Xiao Ying the whole truth.

That night happened to be a school holiday.

Little Persimmon, under the pretext of having a heart-to-heart talk, invited Sweetie to the rooftop of the teaching building.

On the small, empty rooftop, the two erupted into a fierce argument. In the heat of the moment, they pulled and pushed each other, and in the chaos, Xiao Shizi accidentally shoved someone hard.

Caught off guard, Tian Tian lost her balance and fell straight off the rooftop.

Witnessing his former friend fall from a high-rise building, Xiao Shizi was instantly terrified and felt a chill run down his spine.

There weren't many students staying on campus during the holiday, but it wasn't deserted. She hurriedly looked around, thankfully there were no security cameras on the rooftop.

After the initial shock, she forced herself to calm down.

She rushed back to her dormitory and closed the door.

Her other two roommates were either out on a date or working part-time, leaving her alone in the dorm.

Not long after, students passing by downstairs discovered Tian Tian's body and hurriedly called the police.

Police arrived quickly, cordoned off the scene, and launched an investigation.

When questioned, Xiao Shizi intentionally or unintentionally revealed that Tian Tian had recently broken up with a guy she met online.

She only verbally invited Tian Tian to the rooftop; there was no chat history left, and no one else saw the two of them go to the rooftop together.

She also told the police that Tian Tian suffered from depression due to the oppression of her family of origin and had been taking medication for a long time.

When all the clues were pieced together, the police ultimately closed the case as a case of depression and suicide by jumping from a building.

A deliberately orchestrated tragedy was thus concealed as an accident.

On the very night of the incident, Xiao Shizi called Xiao Yin, pretending to be terrified and shaken.

That very night, the two confirmed their romantic relationship.

After hearing Shen Jingshu slowly recount the whole truth, Xiao Yin froze, and the color drained from her face.

Overwhelmed by regret and remorse.

He never imagined that on the night the girl who had been connected to him through a screen passed away, he was actually in a relationship with the murderer who killed her.

He covered his face tightly, his shoulders trembling violently, in unbearable pain.
