My Villain Is Super Sweet (GL) - CHAPTER 49

The Security Bureau investigated swiftly, and within a couple of days, the entire sequence of events was uncovered.

The truth was shockingly simple. Lin Lang hadn’t been around Rong City much this past year. Without her close supervision, her scumbag father fell back into gambling.

At first, he bet cautiously, afraid of losing all his money. When Lin Lang found out, she tried to come up with ways to curb him again.

But later, he got addicted, and caution flew out the window. He gambled away everything in his account and even racked up debts. That’s when panic set in.

Selling the house to pay off the debts would surely alert Lin Lang. But if he didn’t repay them?

What was he thinking, those people weren’t ones to mess with!

Each day he delayed meant even more interest piling up!

That’s when someone gave him an idea: “Don’t you have a daughter who’s super successful? She must have plenty of money, just ask her! If she refuses, go to her company and cause a scene!”

Scumbag Dad’s eyes bulged. “You want me dead?!”

He grumbled bitterly, complaining at length about how terrifying Lin Lang was.
“Yeah, she’s rich, but she wouldn’t give me a single penny!”

“I’m still her biological father!”

“Where has it ever been seen that a daughter scolds her own father like a dog?!”

He was full of resentment.

Even he knew Lin Lang, besides her regular job, had started a company with others. Although he couldn’t figure out exactly how much she earned, just looking at the few young people she used to hang out with, buying big houses, luxury cars, he could tell she must be making serious money.

At that moment, someone casually shared a news story: a daughter who made a fortune, only for her parents and brother to commit her to a psychiatric hospital and seize all her assets. Even if she later escaped, the money was gone.

Scumbag Dad was instantly tempted.

Everything after that just followed naturally.

The Security Bureau pieced this all together clearly. When Scumbag Dad was brought in for questioning, he thought it was about illegal gambling and panicked, swearing he only gambled a little, nothing major!

But when they said it was about Lin Lang, he immediately straightened up, no more trembling, and indignantly said, “Lin Lang really is mentally ill! She has mania! The whole family had to listen to her, or she’d start smashing things!”

When confronted with evidence that he tried to have her committed for her money, he still acted like it was no big deal: “She’s my daughter. She’s sick. What’s wrong with sending her to a mental institution?”

When he learned Lin Lang was fully pursuing charges and had even requested a DNA test, suspecting she wasn’t biologically related to him, his mind went blank.

“What? What did she say?” he stammered.

Then he exploded in curses.

All his curses boiled down to one thing: his daughter was heartless for suing her own father!

Never mind who struck first.

Once scared enough, Scumbag Dad spilled everything. He wanted Lin Lang’s money and hated being under her control.

How did he manage to put this plan into action?

He himself was a bit confused.

When he wanted money, someone suggested asking his daughter.

When he was worried about how to ask, someone conveniently mentioned the news about committing daughters to psychiatric hospitals to steal their wealth.

Even the idea of drugging her came from hearing people gossip about “date rape drugs” at bars—how one pill could make someone totally lose consciousness.

When he went to the bar to ask around, before he could even say anything, someone mysteriously approached him, asking if he “needed something.”

Choosing the mental institution? That idea came from a gambling buddy mentioning the “Mingxin Center.”

Step by step, it was clear: someone had set a trap, and Scumbag Dad had stumbled right into it.

But when investigators followed this trail, the people involved all feigned innocence. “I just casually mentioned it! How could I know he’d take it seriously?” Some even cursed at the officers: “I mentioned a murder I saw on the news the other day, why didn’t he go commit murder too, huh?”

There wasn’t much else they could dig up from Scumbag Dad’s side.

It was frustrating, knowing there was a plot but finding the traces too faint to pursue further.

However, Lin Lang insisted on a DNA test, and the results came back.

Sure enough, no biological relationship.

This shifted the investigation’s direction.

Soon they found that another baby born in the same hospital, around the same time as Lin Lang, was someone they knew well, He Ji Kai.

The whole picture started coming together.

He Ji Kai had orchestrated everything: luring Scumbag Dad to commit Lin Lang, bribing doctors to secretly inject her with fertility drugs, all to harvest her eggs. The cruelty was masked by subtlety, enough not to arouse suspicion.

Just from these findings, everyone could imagine the twisted story:

The classic swapped-at-birth drama, real daughter and fake son. After discovering the truth, the fake son wanted to marry the real daughter to secure his position. If they had a child together, even if the truth came out later, it wouldn’t matter.

But the real daughter (Lin Lang) didn’t fall for it. She disliked He Ji Kai and kept her distance.

So, the fake son took a more desperate route, trying to force a child.

Yet he didn’t dare destroy her completely, fearful of backlash.

Because Scumbag Dad’s side revealed so little, investigators turned to He Ji Kai and dug hard.

Lin Lang, however, offered even more explosive information: “I’m not sure if the entire He family knows, but He Wei Min definitely does.”

He Wei Min had first approached Lin Lang, proposing a marriage between their children.

No one wanted to believe it at first, what kind of cursed luck would it take to have two scumbag dads?

But matching Lin Lang’s DNA against a nationwide database brought out a shocking truth:

Seven years ago, someone had already matched Lin Lang’s DNA, both parents’ DNA had been submitted. And the result?

Confirmed biological relationship.

Seven years ago!

They had known for seven years and never once tried to reclaim her.

Not until two years ago, when Lin Lang bravely foiled He Ji Kai’s assault on Gu Qingci, becoming the key witness against him.

That was when real daughter and fake son had their first real confrontation.

Whether to protect his fake son or out of some twisted idea of keeping the family bloodline going, He Wei Min started plotting to bind Lin Lang to He Ji Kai.

He didn’t want to recognize her as his daughter, but he did want her womb, to carry a child with He bl00d.

The motives were chillingly clear.
Traditional biases were bad enough, but refusing to reclaim a daughter while plotting to marry her off to a fake son? Treating her like a breeding tool?

It left everyone who learned the truth utterly horrified.

The more people dug into the He family’s actions, the more suffocating it felt.

Those in the know now looked at Lin Lang with overwhelming sympathy.

What kind of cosmic bad luck did it take to end up with two awful fathers?

One, her biological father, cruel and heartless, knowing the truth for seven years but treating her as nothing.

The other, a supposed adoptive father, stupid, vicious, and rotten, willing to fake her insanity and institutionalize her just to steal her money.

Lin Lang herself, though, seemed indifferent.

She had realized at twelve years old that some people simply weren’t destined for parental love.

She had long learned to rely on herself.

Besides, she now had a loving girlfriend and a few good friends.

She wasn’t lacking in love at all.

Her girlfriend, Gu Qingci, however, didn’t see it the same way.

Gu Qingci believed that even if Lin Lang acted indifferent, it had to hurt deep down, just as it had devastated her when she realized her own father cared more about profit than about her.

She remembered the feeling of the sky crashing down, the suffocating despair.

Lin Lang’s situation was even worse. To Gu Qingci, that made Lin Lang even more precious.

She lavished Lin Lang with affection, offering warm embraces, passionate kisses, constant reassurances: “Don’t grieve for those who aren’t worth it, you still have me!”

Gu Qingci was determined to smother Lin Lang in endless love.

Lin Lang wanted to tell her she wasn’t that fragile, that she had long since given up on her foster parents, and the biological ones were even less worth mentioning.

She almost wanted to laugh at how lucky she was not to have grown up in the He family.

But Gu Qingci’s love was overwhelming.

How could she refuse?

She didn’t want to.

She just wanted to drown in it.
