Quick Transmigration: I Was Cannon Fodder But Became the White Moonlight

"elder sister……?"

Chen Su repeated the two words, as if she didn't understand, or as if she understood but couldn't comprehend them.

Her voice was soft and ethereal.

She seemed to want to force a smile with her usual slightly spoiled attitude, but no matter what she did, she couldn't get it to curve, leaving only a stiff arc.

"Dad." She looked at Chen Zonghan, her eyes filled with confusion and vulnerability, "What...what do you mean by this?"

Looking at his daughter's distraught yet forced composure, Chen Zonghan felt as if his heart was being torn apart, as if countless needles were pricking him at the same time.

But he knew that things had come to this point, and any further delays or cover-ups would only cause greater harm.

He closed his eyes briefly, and when he opened them again, only determination remained in them. In a voice as calm as possible, he spoke the cruel truth:

"Susu, Zhixia... Zhixia is our biological daughter. Your mother and I only received the definitive paternity test report today, confirming this fact."

My biological daughter...

Chen Su's body swayed almost imperceptibly. If Lu Yuze's arm hadn't been firmly supporting her, she might have really collapsed.

Her eyes became even more unfocused, as if she was trying to process this simple sentence.

"She is your...biological daughter," she murmured, repeating herself.

Then, she raised her head, looked directly at Chen Zonghan, and asked in a dry voice, "What about me?"

Chen Zonghan's throat felt like it was blocked by something, but he still managed to say, "Back then... back then at the hospital, we and the Lin family... accidentally switched the babies. Su Su, you are... you are a child of the Lin family. We are sorry to Zhi Xia, letting her suffer so much while she was away... and we are sorry to you too, Su Su, we..."

"impossible!"

Chen Su abruptly interrupted him, her voice rising sharply, choked with sobs and disbelief, "How is this possible! Dad, you're lying to me! How could I not be your child? I grew up by your side since I was little, I've called you Mom and Dad for twenty years! How could I... how could I become someone else's child?"

She could no longer hold back her tears, which rolled down her cheeks and splashed onto her clothes, leaving a small wet patch.

She turned her head abruptly, her eyes blurry with tears, and looked at Su Wan, who was silently weeping beside her. As if grasping at a last straw, her voice was filled with pleading: "Mom! Say something! Tell me this is fake! Dad's just joking, right? Mom!"

Su Wan was already sobbing uncontrollably. Seeing her daughter, whom she had raised and loved for twenty years, in such a broken state, her heart was breaking.

She shook her head violently, her voice broken and shattered: "Susu... I'm sorry, Mommy is so sorry... But, the paternity test... it can't be wrong... it can't be wrong..."

"It can't be wrong?"

These four words shattered Chen Su's last shred of hope.

She seemed to have heard a joke, and chuckled softly with her head down.

It carries an endless emptiness and desolation.

She looked around the home she had lived in for twenty years. Every piece of furniture was so familiar, yet at this moment it felt incredibly strange.

"Then what am I? Dad, Mom, what have I been for the past twenty years...?"

Her gaze swept over Lin Zhixia, who remained stiff and helpless on the sofa, her face equally pale. Her eyes held a complex and unreadable expression, which ultimately settled into a self-deprecating grayness. "Now... now that you've found your biological daughter, does that mean... does that mean you don't want me anymore? You're going to kick me out? Throw this imposter out the door?"

"Su Su!" Su Wan interrupted her sharply, her voice trembling with emotion, "No, how could Mommy abandon you! You'll always be our daughter! That will never change!"

"No...I won't listen...I don't believe it..."

Chen Su shook her head in pain, as if she couldn't bear any more. She raised her hands to cover her ears and pulled back forcefully, breaking free from Lu Yuze's arm that had been holding her.

She turned around, ran out of the villa crying without looking back.

"Su Su—!"

"Su Su!"

Chen Zonghan and Su Wan both cried out in surprise and instinctively wanted to chase after them.

"Uncle, Aunt." Lu Yu, who had been silent all along, stepped forward and blocked their way.

He finally spoke, his voice as steady as ever, "Let Su Su be alone for a while. This news is too sudden; she needs time to process it."

He turned slightly to the side, glancing at the dark night outside the door, and said firmly, "Don't worry, I won't let her be in danger."

Su Wan and Chen Zonghan stopped in their tracks, their faces a mixture of pain, worry, and helplessness.

They knew Lu Yuze was right; chasing after them now would only provoke Chen Su and bring them no benefit.

This event was like a sudden disaster for everyone, and it takes time to process and accept it.

"Now that things have come to this, dwelling on the past is pointless." Lu Yuze's voice remained calm, carrying an almost indifferent rationality. "The most urgent task is to deal with the present and plan for the future."

Lu Yuze's gaze swept over the appraisal report on the coffee table. His tone was clear and his points were well-organized: "Chen Su has lived in the Chen family for twenty years. This is an undeniable fact. Her identity, social life, and marriage are all closely linked to the Chen family."

He paused, his gaze falling on Chen Zonghan and Su Wan's faces.

"A sudden change would hurt everyone, especially her."

Then, his gaze turned to Lin Zhixia, who had been keeping her head down on the sofa, and he said in a calm tone: "As for Miss Lin, since she is of Chen family blood, it is only natural and reasonable for her to acknowledge her ancestors and return to the family. However, the specific arrangements, when to make it public, and how to integrate her into the family require careful consideration and must take into account the feelings of all parties, as well as... face."

As Chen Zonghan listened to Lu Yuze's calm, almost indifferent analysis, he forcibly suppressed some of the surging emotions in his heart.

He knew that although Lu Yuze's words were cold and unsympathetic, they did indeed point out the crux of the problem.

This matter involves not only the fate of the two girls, but also the reputation of the Chen family, their relationship with the Lu family, and more complex business and social networks.

Public handling of such matters must be approached with utmost caution.

He took a deep breath and looked at Lu Yuze, his future son-in-law whom he had always admired.

The calmness displayed at this moment even made him feel a chill, yet he had to admit its necessity.

"Okay." Chen Zonghan's voice was still hoarse, but it had regained some of its former composure. "Yuze, then I'll trouble you... to take good care of Susu first. Don't let her do anything foolish."

"Of course." Lu Yu nodded. "It's my responsibility."

He didn't say anything more, and bowed slightly to Chen Zonghan and Su Wan, "Uncle and Aunt, I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, he didn't linger, turned around, and walked out of the villa.

_

Outside the villa, night was falling.

Chen Su didn't run around recklessly, nor would she do anything foolish.

She simply huddled quietly in the back seat of the Maybach, her face still wet with tears, her eyes and the tip of her nose red, her shoulders occasionally twitching slightly.

The car was dimly lit. She was holding a crumpled tissue in her hand and gently wiping her cheeks.

The driver in the driver's seat didn't dare to breathe. When he saw Chen Su crying and rushing into the car in the rearview mirror, he was stunned and sat there frozen, at a loss.

Lu Yuze returned, opened the car door, and got in.

He didn't say anything, but simply reached out and pulled Chen Su, who was huddled in the corner, into his arms without saying a word.

Chen Su's body stiffened for a moment, then softened. She didn't struggle, nor did she act coquettishly as usual. She simply buried her face in his crisp suit fabric and remained motionless.

Lu Yu then calmly instructed the driver, who was holding his breath in front of him, "Go to Yulan."

Yulan is a private villa owned by Lu Yuzhe in the suburbs. It is a quiet and secluded place, and few people know about it.

The car started silently and smoothly disappeared into the night.

Lu Yu put one arm around Chen Su and gently stroked her messy long hair with the other.

Outside the car window, the city's neon lights rushed past, reflecting off the two people embracing inside the car.
