At the divorce signing, his wife, Shen Qingyue, announced in front of everyone that she was pregnant, nestling in her lover Zhou Ze's arms. “The child is his!”
The guests erupted in an uproar, and Gu Chengyan became the laughingstock of the century. The moment his pen snapped, a cold mechanical voice exploded in his mind: [God-tier Choice System activated!]
Option one: Sign the papers and swallow the humiliation? Ruin your reputation!
Option two: Throw out a DNA report? Set the whole room ablaze!
Gu Chengyan raised his bloodied hand, and authoritative test results fluttered down like snowflakes: [Fetal DNA match: 99.99%! Paternal line: Gu Chengyan!]
Shen Qingyue collapsed to the floor. Zhou Ze went pale and screamed himself hoarse: “Impossible! I had a vasectomy!”
[Reward issued: Unlocked a fragment of the truth behind the ‘substitute contract’!]
Three years ago, Twilight Sanatorium, top-floor room... life support... genetic samples... one-way inheritance... The chilling clues pointed to a horrifying conspiracy! Only then did Gu Chengyan realize that his life and his marriage had both been part of a carefully orchestrated “substitute” scam!
Public humiliation? He used the DNA report to nail the “first love” to the pillar of shame!
His lover had a vasectomy? One sentence from him left Zhou Ze coughing blood and crumbling on the spot!
A key witness was put under deep hypnosis and interrogated? A mysterious call abruptly interrupted the session, and an unknown power began to emerge!
The blood on his palm was still wet, and his lips were stained an eerie crimson. Gu Chengyan walked out of the wrecked banquet hall, leaving behind his ruined “ex-wife” and her lover on the verge of a mental breakdown. Ahead lay a blood-red path shrouded in mist and fraught with deadly danger.
