Chapter 603 It turns out she is a substitute

It was a 70-minute video, and her new name "Chen Zhichu" would be used in the notes of the video.

Shen Qing couldn't figure it out.

There was a voice in her subconscious mind that stopped her from turning off the computer and stopping looking at it in time. After all, this was Lu Tingchuan's privacy. But once the seed of curiosity was planted in her heart, it could not be cleared away.

In the end, Shen Qing clicked on the video without any reason.

The woman in the video is very beautiful. Even though she is in tattered clothes and chained to the wall, her beauty cannot be concealed. The woman is very thin, so thin that she can only be described as slender.

Why is he chained to the wall? Is he filming a movie?

The video played slowly, and gradually Shen Qing's face lost its color and turned pale.

From the conversation, Shen Qing knew that the woman in the video was called Shen Zhichu, and she also recognized at a glance that the man wearing the ghost mask was Lu Tingchuan. Lu Tingchuan had a not very obvious red mole on his neck, and once he became overly emotional, the red mole would turn bright red.

Shen Qing couldn't watch the entire 70-minute video second by second. She swiped the mouse and saw the scene of her ten fingers being pierced by steel needles. The mouse in her hand fell to the ground.

For a moment, Shen Qing didn't know what she was doing or where she was. She just stared at the video blankly, not even noticing that tears were flowing unconsciously.

The wind blew in, and the tears on her face wet and dried, dried and wet again. Finally, she squatted down, unplugged the computer power cord, curled up on the ground and wiped her tears.

Shen Qing made no sound when she cried, but just covered her lips and trembled silently. Her whole body felt pain every time it trembled, and the pain was so severe that she felt suffocated, and the blood in her body seemed to have frozen into ice.

What else is there to not understand?

She felt sorry for the woman in the video, Shen Zhichu.

I also felt sorry for myself. After all, it turned out that she was just a substitute.

It is undeniable that she looks very similar to Shen Zhichu. They only looked alike before, but now even their names have been changed to the same.

What "I know everything about you and love you as before" and what new life and starting over? She just lived a wrong life under someone else's name.

In addition to these... there is also bottomless fear. She always thought that Lu Tingchuan was a "good person" but she didn't expect that he had so many ways to torture people.

For the first time, Shen Qing wanted to escape from Lu Tingchuan, but where could she escape to? She had no home. She had mistakenly thought this was her safe haven, but she didn't expect it to be under a lightning rod.

After crying enough, Shen Qing walked into the bathroom in a daze. She looked at herself in the mirror and was at a loss for a moment. She couldn't tell who she was. Was she Shen Zhichu or Shen Qing?

There was Shen Zhichu in the world, but what about Shen Qing? Who was Shen Qing? She had so easily thrown away the name that represented her, so who would care who Shen Qing was?

The scene of Shen Zhichu being abused flashed through his mind again, and the pain was heart-wrenching.

The scar on my back, which had clearly healed, started to hurt again.

Shen Qing returned to her room, locked the door and curled up on the sofa. Although it was summer, she felt cold all over and couldn't stop shivering.

…

Lu Tingchuan said that he would take Shen Qing to the hospital for scar removal surgery today. After coming back, he barked twice. Shen Qing, who usually rushed to him like a dog when he heard the sound, was nowhere to be seen today.

He raised his wrist to check the time on his watch. It was four in the afternoon. Was he taking a nap at this hour? Or was he sick again?

Lu Tingchuan sighed. She didn't have the fate of a princess but she had all the princess syndromes. She was too delicate. Just a few scalds on her made her sick. Look at how Shen Zhichu was tortured by Li Jingshen before. She didn't look so dying even when she had stomach cancer. She lived for a long time. She was really lucky.

Unfortunately... a good life does not mean great blessings. Sometimes a life worse than death is the greatest pain. Fortunately, Shen Zhichu was finally freed and escaped from Li Jingshen's control.

Lu Tingchuan walked up the stairs slowly while thinking about something. Shen Qing's room was at the back, so he had to pass his own room first before going there.

He casually glanced at the room as he passed by and found that someone had moved inside. He usually kept the windows closed, but today they were wide open. He thought that Shen Qing must have forgot to close them while cleaning.

The weather forecast warned that it would rain at 5 pm, so the windows had to be closed to prevent the rain from coming in and getting the curtains wet.

Lu Tingchuan walked in and was about to reach out to close the window when he suddenly saw that the computer cable against the wall had been unplugged.

The mouse was not in its original position, and the computer was also placed a few centimeters off. Lu Tingchuan frowned and thought of something. He went over to plug in the power cord, turned on the computer to check the records. Sure enough, something inside had been moved, and what had been moved was the video of Shen Zhichu being tortured.

Shen Qing is the only one in this room. Who else could it be besides her?

After discovering this video and watching it, even a fool would know his purpose, not to mention... Shen Qing is not stupid.

Lu Tingchuan walked silently to Shen Qing's room, stood at the door and knocked twice.

"Shen Qing, open the door."

When Lu Tingchuan's voice fell into Shen Qing's ears, he felt his scalp tingling.

In the past, she thought Lu Tingchuan was perfect in every way. Not only was he good-looking but his voice was also gentle and pleasant. But now she thought that hiding under his delicate appearance was an evil devil who was good at deceiving people.

Shen Qing felt inexplicably nervous, like a rabbit falling into a wolf's den. She didn't want to open the door. For the first time, she wanted to go against the man's words.

Cover your head with the quilt, as long as you don't hear it, it's fine... Maybe everything will be fine after you wake up from a good sleep...

She wanted to escape, but reality always caught up with her faster. Escape was the most cowardly and useless thing to do. It would be better for her to talk things over with Lu Tingchuan and let him leave her forever.

Shen Qing knew all of this, but the fear in her heart far outweighed her rationality. She didn't know how to talk to Lu Tingchuan, and she didn't know whether he would let her go given his torturous methods.

"Shen Qing, open the door, I'm back." The door was locked. Lu Tingchuan seemed a little impatient because he couldn't open the door. It's not that he didn't have a spare key, but he was too lazy to look for it, so he just kicked it.

"Bang, bang, bang—" The sound of kicking the door, one louder than the other, echoed in the room inside. Shen Qing was trembling on the sofa.

I kicked it several times but it didn't open. When this house was renovated, high-quality materials were used. The door is a solid wood door with a cooling effect, and the door handle has a good locking function.

Who could have thought that the door he chose would one day make him angry because he couldn't get in after kicking it?

After waiting for a while, Lu Tingchuan became increasingly irritated, his expression fierce: "Come out!"

He also wanted to resolve this matter gently. He had seen it in the video, so what if he knew the truth? As long as Shen Qing was obedient and remained the same as before, he could let bygones be bygones and pretend nothing had happened.
