Chapter 236: Chapter 236: After Kicking Out the Scumbag, the Aloof Buddhist Son Dotes on His Wife 36 Chapter 236: Chapter 236: After Kicking Out the Scumbag, the Aloof Buddhist Son Dotes on His Wife 36 Jiang Beiyu was going to drug her?!
Su Zhiruan showed the chat to Zhou Mingyu, while she thought things over.
All Bai Yueyou cared about was dragging her down and then marrying Jiang Beiyu herself; why would she suddenly have a change of heart and warn her about Jiang Beiyu’s plan?
Su Zhiruan didn’t believe that Bai Yueyou had a sudden attack of conscience. After all, in her previous life, Bai Yueyou would rather kill her own flesh and blood than let the original owner of the body be mired in scandal and attacked by the whole internet. Why would she be so kind as to warn her in this life?
“What she said should be true,” Zhou Mingyu said after reading it, his eyebrows furrowed and his eyes cold, “but she’s not worried about you, she’s afraid that your old love might rekindle, and she, will always be the mistress.”
“It’s almost what I guessed,” Su Zhiruan nodded, she had thought for a long time and the conclusion she came to was the same.
Jiang Beiyu and Jiang’s mother were discussing how to take over the Su Family, and the best way in was through her, Su Zhiruan.
That’s why she had started acting the moment she came into this world. Since she desired revenge, she needed them to deliver the evidence to her step by step. She would tailor the perfect trap for them, watch them slowly fall into the abyss, being eaten away without knowing, and step by step falling into despair, unable to show their claws.
“I’ve had someone take care of them,” Zhou Mingyu had long been disgusted with Jiang Beiyu and reached for his cellphone, ready to put an end to it all.
“Wait,” Su Zhiruan stopped him, “There are mini-cameras on my front door, we can’t miss the evidence of breaking and entering!”
Zhou Mingyu respected her decision but also worried for her safety. Pinching Su Zhiruan’s fingers, he said.
“If you encounter danger, you must contact me.”
“Of course,” Su Zhiruan nodded.
[I understand, thank you]
Su Zhiruan replied to Bai Yueyou on her phone, then put away the phone and returned with Zhou Mingyu.
After they left, two sneaky figures emerged from the bushes.
Both were white-haired but in good spirits. The old lady wanted to continue following, but was stopped by the old man.
“Stop following them, if we keep it up, our grandson will find out, do as you please,” the old man crossed his arms, watching Su Zhiruan and Zhou Mingyu walk shoulder to shoulder, he couldn’t be more satisfied, “Let the young ones go on their own.”
“Oh, I was just curious!” The old lady also stepped out, her voice loud, but her face and eyes were full of love and relief, “This is good news, good news. I’ve heard these past few days that our grandson has taken a liking to a girl. I thought it was just some celebrity tabloid. Oh my, who knew it was true!”
“Who wouldn’t be worried? Our grandson is good in everything, handsome and capable, and his character is beyond reproach. Only he frequents temples all the time, always wearing Buddha Beads, often fasting and praying, detached from worldly affairs,” the old man sighed deeply, “Looking at him, I always thought he might become a monk the next second. He’s never shown interest in any girl since he was young, and I thought the Zhou Family might just end there.”
“You can tell, Mingyu really likes that girl; who knows which family she is from? It’s not easy to have finally found a granddaughter-in-law; we mustn’t miss out on this and have to settle this quickly,” the Zhou Family’s Madam was already thinking about which jewelry she had, eager to start preparing immediately.
“Yes, we must act on this as soon as possible!”
At this moment, Su Zhiruan and Zhou Mingyu were unaware of this.
After Su Zhiruan returned, she opened the door’s surveillance feed.
Now, the doorway was empty. After she had thrown out Jiang Beiyu’s things, she had changed the locks and reset the codes.
Jiang Beiyu was determined to succeed tonight, and she needed to make sure her preparations were in order, so whether it was the surveillance or the alarm system, she had everything ready. Once Jiang Beiyu couldn’t get in, he would naturally think of other ways to enter. When she called the police, this record would temporarily follow him.
Soon, at 8:30 pm, Su Zhiruan’s phone rang twice. She put down the bowl and chopsticks she was eating with, tapped her phone, and instantly, the live feed, complete with sound and video, was cast onto her phone.
Jiang Beiyu donned a silver-gray suit and had his hair neatly fixed with gel and pomade. He still sported an earring, carried a bag in his left hand, and held a bunch of roses in his right. Reluctant to spend much, he had adorned the bouquet with baby’s breath while only including three or four actual roses.
In a crowd, Jiang Beiyu’s attire would indeed stand out among ordinary men. Su Zhiruan could tell that during his disappearance, he must have worked on losing weight and getting fit, as he looked slimmer than before.
But compared to Zhou Mingyu, who exuded the aura of a refined gentleman, Jiang Beiyu was nothing more than a clownish figure.
While eating, Su Zhiruan watched the surveillance feed on her phone.
“Ding-dong ding-dong—”
After ringing the doorbell twice and seeing that no one opened the door, Jiang Beiyu could hardly believe it, so he pressed it twice more.
“Ding-dong ding-dong ding-dong—”
Still, no one answered.
Jiang Beiyu put down what he was holding and knocked on the door tentatively, “Ruanruan? Are you home? It’s me! I’m back! If you’re home, open the door!”
Su Zhiruan put down her chopsticks and leisurely watched Jiang Beiyu’s clownish performance on her phone.
He stood at the Su Family’s doorstep, looking anxious, but he didn’t stop his actions, “Ruanruan! If you’re there, open the door! Look what I’ve brought back for you! Open the door, I know I was wrong! I’ve come to apologize to you!”
“The password… Did you change the password, Ruanruan!? Why can’t I open the door! Ruanruan, just open the door first!” Jiang Beiyu was now frantic. He placed everything he was carrying on the ground and kept knocking on the door, trying various passwords.
The price of Su Zhiruan’s apartment wasn’t low, and the door was a thick copper one, which naturally couldn’t be opened by just anyone.
Even for a professional locksmith, breaking into such a door would take a good five hours of work.
Su Zhiruan watched as Jiang Beiyu’s footsteps moved step by step, a smile forming on her face.
The apartment was a large unit occupying an entire floor, and it was a single-family dwelling. Normally, one would need to have an elevator card or go through facial and iris verification to enter the floor.
Jiang Beiyu did not have a key or the password to Su Zhiruan’s home, but he did have an elevator card previously, which Su Zhiruan had intentionally left for him.
And there was a path where one could jump out from the windowsill beside the elevator and crawl in through her kitchen.
This path, of course, was also “accidentally” revealed to Jiang Beiyu by Su Zhiruan.
Soon, she heard a muffled sound inside the house and knew that Jiang Beiyu had broken into her home.
She leisurely activated the alarm system.
In an instant, a deafening alarm sounded from her phone, originating from the room Jiang Beiyu had entered!
And on the surveillance, his visible panic began.
