I was blacklisted by the whole network at the beginning, but I became popular after surviving in the

Hospital, in the ward.

There was no sign of life in the ward, except for the sound of the award ceremony playing on the TV on the wall opposite the bed.

In the windy and snowy winter, even with the heater on, you can still feel the biting cold.

The woman lying on the hospital bed was so thin that she was just skin and bones. Her long hair, slightly yellow like dead grass, covered her small face, which was the size of a palm.

The hand holding the phone trembled slightly, as if it was the last straw to save its life.

She slowly and laboriously opened her eyelids and slowly brought the phone in front of her. The clearly visible pinhole on the back of her hand was particularly shocking.

The tense award ceremony has begun on TV.

The Best Actor winner will be announced soon.

The woman was in a daze, tapping the phone screen with trembling hands. After finally dialing a number, she had already exhausted all her strength.

Fortunately, the phone did not fall on the ground, but on the pillow.

The call was answered quickly.

There was a burst of noisy voices coming from the other end, briefly adding a bit of liveliness to the deserted ward.

The woman's eyelashes trembled.

"What's the matter with you?"

The other party's tone was filled with disdain and contempt.

The woman seemed unable to hear and spoke with difficulty, "I'm...looking for...Lin Yuezhou."

"Brother Zhou is busy. If you have anything to say, just tell me directly."

"Can...can you lend me...some money?"

The woman's beautiful eyes were dull and without any wavering. A faint glimmer of hopelessness was mingled with her calm despair. "As long as..."

Just a little is enough.

The other party sneered, as if not surprised to hear such words, and interrupted the woman before she finished speaking.

"Brother Zhou asked me to tell you that he has done his best for you. He will not lend you any money, and you should not call me again."

Lin Yuezhou's assistant had just finished speaking when someone seemed to take the phone from his hand.

A familiar female voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Sister, you are watching the live broadcast, right?"

The woman's breathing quickened a little. "Shen...Zhi...Yi."

Her half-sister.

At the same time, the host on TV was already announcing, "The winner of the 35th China Golden Film Awards for Best Actor is... Lin Yuezhou!"

"Let us all congratulate actor Lin Yuezhou!"

As soon as the words fell, they were followed by deafening applause and cheers.

The bustling award ceremony scene formed a sharp contrast with the lifeless ward.

Shen Zhiyi chuckled and raised her chin slightly. "Did you see the TV? Sister, this dazzling and charming man on TV is now mine. I've said it before, no matter what you have, as long as it's something I want, it's destined to be mine in the end."

"Whether it's mom or Azhou, they are all mine."

"And you—are destined to be alone and have nothing."

There was a victor's arrogance in his tone.

The woman didn't know what she was thinking about, and a hint of disbelief flashed in her eyes, "Shen Zhiyi, so you did this on purpose."

"Yes."

Shen Zhiyi smiled. "For all these years, if you hadn't worked multiple jobs all day and night to support Azhou so that he could pursue his dream with peace of mind, and even fainted on the road from exhaustion and was almost hit by a car, I wouldn't have been able to be by Azhou's side so quickly."

"So, I really have to thank you for your hard work and efforts over the years."

"How do you know..."

Shen Zhiyi curled her red lips. "You want to ask, how do I know so many details? Of course... someone told me."

Song Yuge suddenly widened her eyes, and those details that she had once ignored emerged in her mind bit by bit.

She remembered.

I remembered everything.

The person Shen Zhiyi was talking about was her and Shen Zhiyi's mother, Li Jin.

In order to prevent Lin Yuezhou from knowing that she had been secretly supporting him, Song Yuge kept the matter a secret.

Only one person knows.

This person is Li Jin.

Li Jin was greedy for wealth and chose to abandon her husband and daughter, regardless of their life or death. However, she suddenly came back two years ago and took the initiative to treat her well.

Two years ago was the year when Song Yuge and Lin Yuezhou's relationship broke down.

Song Yuge had long noticed that there was something wrong with Li Jin's kindness to her, but at that time she really longed for the maternal love she had never had.

Li Jin would often come to her house suddenly to see her, mostly when she was not at home.

She said she would make soup for her and help her clean the house, but one day, she found that Li Jin had accidentally found the receipt she had left when she gave financial support to Lin Yuezhou.

Now it seems that it was not unintentional, but was planned long ago.

It turns out that this is the answer.

Shen Zhiyi's laughter came from the phone on the pillow, which sounded a bit harsh to Song Yuge's ears.

"I heard that you have cancer and are dying. You called me just to borrow money from Azhou, didn't you?"

Shen Zhiyi curled his lips and smiled, "What a pity, I don't want to see you again. I think Ah Zhou feels the same."

A layer of pain crept into Song Yuge's eyes, and a hint of scarlet couldn't stop flowing out from the corners of his lips.

She spoke with difficulty, "Why did you do this? We are...sisters, I have never...hurt you."

"sisters?"

Shen Zhiyi raised the corners of her lips, looking innocent and harmless. However, the quick flash of satisfaction in her eyes revealed her deliberate disguise. "Song Yuge, remember, you and I are not sisters. What qualifications do you have to say that you are my sister? Mom is my mother, and Lin Yuezhou is mine too."

"As for why I do this?" She couldn't help but smile, "Because I'm happy. As long as I see you sad and disappointed, I'm happy."

The light in Song Yuge's eyes dimmed slightly. "But I never thought of competing with you for anything."

"Fight?"

Shen Zhiyi sneered, "Song Yuge, what qualifications do you have to compete with me?"
