The Foolish Fairy's Candy Wrapper Conspiracy

The Foolish Fairy's Candy Wrapper Conspiracy Plot:

19-year-old Chen Mo has always thought his mentally challenged mother Lin Zhaodi is just "pretending to be stupid"—ever since she "predicted" a rainstorm and found Aunt Wang's lost chicken, the villagers have worshipped her as a "fairy." But everything changes when he finds a crumpled "Save me" note in his mother's candy wrapper collection—written in his late father Chen Jianguo's handwriting. Digging into his father's diary, Chen Mo uncovers a shocking truth: his mother's "powers" are all staged by his father—he checked the weather forecast in advance, secretly helped Aunt Wang find her chicken, and made Lin Zhaodi "prophesy" to swindle the villagers out of money. When Lin Zhaodi started regaining her sanity and threatened to expose him, Chen Jianguo poisoned her further and faked his own death. The "Save me" note? It's Lin Zhaodi's plea to her son when she was briefly conscious. Now, holding the diary and looking at his confused mother, Chen Mo faces an impossible choice: expose his father's fraud and shatter the villagers' faith in his mother, or keep the secret and let her live in the "fairy" illusion forever?
