Chapter 1034: Thrown Out After Throwing Her Weight Around

~8 min read 1,497 words

She suddenly returned, and Wang Yingzhi, unaware, was still nitpicking.

Wang Yingzhi sat in Wang Yinghao's seat, triumphant, with her legs crossed.

She picked up the noodles with her chopsticks nonchalantly and complained, "There isn't a drop of oil in this soup; how do you expect me to eat this? My son and daughter-in-law give you so much for household expenses every month for you to spend, not for you to skimp on."

"Look at what kind of chicken you bought? What kind of soup did you boil? It's not fatty at all."

When boiling chicken soup at home, one would always skim off the oil so that the noodles cooked in the soup would taste fresh without being greasy.

Wang Yingzhi was clearly just looking for trouble.

"Aren't you afraid of clogged arteries and a myocardial infarction if you eat so much grease?"

"How are you speaking to me..."

Wang Yingzhi slapped the table and stood up, only to discover that Shi Youxuan was standing behind her.

"Xuanxuan, when did you get back? You didn't make a sound at all, hehehe." She laughed sheepishly, her eyeballs rolling around as she searched for an excuse.

"I returned at a bad time, didn't I? Did I interrupt your performance?"

Facing the sarcasm, Wang Yingzhi didn't care at all; she stood up and gave the seat to Shi Youxuan: "You sit, the sun outside is so scorching, you must have been sunburnt, right? What do you want to eat? I'll go make it for you."

"No need, move out; you are not allowed to come to my house ever again."

Shi Youxuan was expressionless.

"Huh? I have to move out... shouldn't I be cooperating with the police investigation? Those two brats haven't been found yet..." She didn't want to leave; she had just gotten a taste of throwing her weight around in the Sheng Family, and it would be difficult to come back if she left now.

"We will find you if there is a need."

She wanted to try a little harder: "But, what if I'm in danger outside?"

"Then go turn yourself in at the police station; the police will protect you."

Wang Yingzhi:...

Could anything good come from going to the police station?

She wasn't stupid; she didn't want to walk right into a trap.

Wang Yingzhi was sharper now than before; she wouldn't just flatly refuse like she used to.

"It wouldn't be very appropriate for me to go to the police station, would it? Once I'm there, they will definitely ask what my relationship with Zhu Qingxiang is."

"I am a law-abiding citizen; I will definitely tell the truth at the police station. When that time comes, the one who will be in trouble is your aunt, the Sheng Family."

Shi Youxuan laughed: "Not bad, those ten years in Prison weren't wasted; you've finally grown a brain and learned how to threaten people indirectly. But don't you worry about our family's affairs; let's go, right now. I'll accompany you to the police station."

Wang Yingzhi was dumbfounded.

"You'll accompany me? You're joking with me, right?"

"No, I'm serious. We're leaving now; the car is waiting at the door. Are you going to walk out yourself, or do you want someone to invite you out?"

Since things had reached this point, and with Shi Youxuan staring at her like a tiger, she couldn't keep clinging to the Sheng Family even if she wanted to.

Wang Yingzhi: "I'll go upstairs to pack my things."

Shi Youxuan: "I'll accompany you."

She kept her hands behind her back and quietly waved at her mother-in-law, signaling her to go back to her room and hide.

Before Wang Yinghao could leave, Wang Yingzhi started causing trouble again: "You don't need to accompany me to pack; you are the lady of the Sheng Family, how could I trouble you with such menial, tiring work? How about this, Ah Hao will accompany me to pack."

With her daughter-in-law backing her up, Wang Yinghao's courage grew a bit; she pretended not to hear and walked away quickly.

"Hey, I'm talking to you..."

Shi Youxuan blocked her path: "My mother-in-law has a more noble status in this house than I do; what right does a guest like you have to boss her around? Me offering to accompany you is already giving you the greatest face possible. What, do you look down on me?"

Even if she were given eight times the courage, she wouldn't dare look down on the current Shi Youxuan.

"No, that's not what I meant."

"Stop talking nonsense, go pack your things quickly; the car is waiting outside. Or, if you don't want your luggage, that's fine too. Wealth is just an external possession, after all; you've finally realized that!"

"I'll go pack."

Wang Yingzhi stopped talking nonsense and quickly went upstairs to pack her things.

Shi Youxuan leaned against the doorframe and surveyed the room, heh.

Wang Yingzhi had only lived in the house for a few days, but she had really accumulated quite a lot of things.

If it weren't for the fact that the large furniture in the room hadn't been moved, she would have almost suspected this was her mother-in-law's room.

The table was packed full—diamond earrings, platinum bracelets, large gold bangles...

High-end cosmetics, perfume, designer bags!

They all belonged to her mother-in-law.

They were gifts from her husband and her to her mother-in-law for holidays and birthdays; of course, there were also gifts from Sheng Jiang. Those conspicuous, value-retaining gold ornaments were all gifts from her father-in-law to her mother-in-law.

But now, these things were all displayed in the room where Wang Yingzhi was staying, and she was preparing to pack them up and take them away!

Shi Youxuan stepped forward to stop her: "Hold on, these aren't yours, are they?"

Wang Yingzhi was very calm; not even the corner of her eye or a strand of her hair showed a hint of panic: "These are all mine. If things in my room aren't mine, whose could they be? Of course, if you like them, I can give them to you."

Shi Youxuan was so angry she laughed: "You'll give them to me? You're quite generous with other people's belongings when playing the benefactor. These are all my mother-in-law's things; you cannot take them."

Wang Yingzhi: "If nothing goes wrong, I should be your mother-in-law now."

She didn't give an inch and retorted: "If you were my mother-in-law, that would be the biggest accident of all—it would mean Heaven had gone blind."

"How can you speak like that? I can't help it if you won't acknowledge me as your mother-in-law. After all, you are wealthy and powerful now, so whatever you say is right. My small arms can't twist the thighs; I have self-awareness, I won't go head-to-head with you..."

Wang Yingzhi naturally packaged herself into a pitiful state, lowering her head in grievance, just like an old woman who was being bullied and had no power to fight back.

Shi Youxuan felt a moment of softness.

She almost waved her hand and told her to just take all these things and leave!

But the moment she raised her hand, Shi Youxuan realized what was happening.

No, this was her scheme.

If she succeeds this time, she will only become more excessive and go further next time.

Good heavens, I almost fell for it!

"Put it down."

She adjusted her facial expression—without any expression, she said: "Take what is yours, but things that do not belong to you, not even a needle or a thread, are not allowed to be taken out of my house!"

Wang Yingzhi:...

She looked at those things longingly, then looked again.

So regretful; she regretted not packing them up sooner, she had been careless.

Shi Youxuan personally took Wang Yingzhi to the police station to be questioned.

She did not lie; what she said was the same as what was recorded in the audio and video from the Prison, but Wang Yingzhi had seen what Zhu Qingrui looked like.

Although she did not see the facial features clearly, she still saw the general build and movements.

The police officer drew a portrait based on her description, and Shi Youxuan waited quietly outside.

After the investigation, it was already dark when Wang Yingzhi walked out, but she was exceptionally happy!

Because she had not expected to be able to come out so quickly; Shi Youxuan was not sending her in to eat prison food, just investigating a little, and the police were actually quite polite to her.

It is easy to get carried away when one is smug, and Wang Yingzhi lost her bearings again.

"Daughter-in-law, you really are a good person; a great person does not hold a grudge against a petty one, a prime minister's belly can hold a boat... a person like you will surely be blessed by Heaven, with many children, many grandchildren, and many blessings..."
