Chapter 1843: Still Different

She said coldly, "No money? Then you should just go die. A scourge like you living is just a waste of air and food. If you die, you won't be able to continue harming others."

"You... why are you talking like that?"

"Cui Xiaoqian, do you think I'm as easy to deceive as Moli? Don't dream. I've already investigated everything about you. I'm giving you an account number now; write it down and return the money you swindled from me immediately."

"And the money for the meal we had together—although I didn't take a single bite and you packed up all the leftovers to take with you, I can still split that bill with you. But the two packs of high-end cigarettes you took from the restaurant must be counted as yours. It totals 68,000 yuan. I'll waive the change; consider it the tuition fee for you swindling me."

After Su Qiangying finished speaking, she reported her bank account number.

"Fine, you're ruthless. I really don't care about this little bit of money. Don't worry, I'll pay you back." Cui Xiaoqian agreed well on the surface, but in reality, she didn't take it to heart at all, and she certainly wouldn't pay it back.

Pay back, my foot.

Once the money was in her hands, did she really think she would return it?

She was disdainful and didn't take Su Qiangying seriously at all.

Cui Xiaoqian felt that Su Qiangying was talking nonsense, even saying she was different from Moli—what was the difference?

Wasn't it all the same? Did she really think a few words would make her spit out what she had already eaten?

In her dreams.

Cui Xiaoqian didn't take it to heart, but the next day, the police showed up at her door.

"Are you Cui Xiaoqian?"

"No."

Seeing that things were going wrong, she immediately denied it and tried to run away.

But she didn't get away; the police were prepared, and they handcuffed her and took her away.

At the police station, it was useless even if Cui Xiaoqian could talk her way out of anything. She had a criminal record, and combined with the phone recording provided by Su Qiangying, she couldn't deny it even if she wanted to.

"Officer, I'm not a fraudster. I just did it as a prank out of jealousy. I can return the money to her. I haven't touched it, really, not a single cent..."

It was true that she hadn't touched a cent, but it wasn't because her conscience had awakened; it was because she hadn't had the chance to spend it yet.

Cui Xiaoqian wanted to return the stolen money to strive for a lighter sentence, but Su Qiangying was not prepared to let her off.

She found a close friend who was a Lüshi and filed a lawsuit against her in court.

She sued her for fraud, extortion, and defamation... for which she was sentenced to five years.

This outcome was already satisfying enough, but Su Qiangying was still not satisfied. She blew this matter up even further, taking it to the internet to let those who had been swindled by Cui Xiaoqian seek justice.

With Su Qiangying making such a scene, Jian Yixin soon found out as well.

She completely approved of her daughter-in-law's actions and secretly added fuel to the fire, allowing the influence of this matter to reach an unprecedented height, with extremely wide dissemination.

Almost everyone knew there was a swindler like Cui Xiaoqian, and now one of the victims was willing to provide legal help to everyone for free.

Many people came looking for help, so Su Qiangying was very busy during this period. Every day, apart from work, she spent almost all her time from morning to night providing help to these people.

When people are busy, they have no mind to think about unhappy things, and effort is rewarded; under Su Qiangying's "help," Cui Xiaoqian's sentence was successfully increased from five years to twelve years!

That didn't even include the dozens of civil lawsuits demanding compensation for economic losses!

This woman suffered the consequences of her evil deeds and finally paid the price she deserved for the bad things she had done.

With Cui Xiaoqian's matter coming to an end, Su Qiangying became idle, but she felt as empty as if she had been hollowed out.

With no goal left, what was she to do next?

She had already moved out of Moli's house and into her own small place.

But when she had nothing to do, she nearly went crazy in just one day!

No, the room was filled with the Yingzi of Moli everywhere; she had even reached the point of auditory hallucinations.

She made a prompt decision to move; she could not continue living here, and she could not have any more entanglements with him.

As she was preparing to move after renting a new place, she saw Moli standing at the door looking pitiful.

"What are you here for?" Her attitude was cold, but her heart ached.

"A-Ying, you've lost weight..."

His life had also been very difficult lately. In fact, Moli had lost even more weight; his whole frame had shrunk significantly, and his clothes looked very loose on him.

"That's none of your business."

"Of course it's my business. You are my wife..." Moli asked.

Su Qiangying blurted out, "I won't be for long. I don't want to continue with you anymore. I want a divorce!"

Moli swallowed hard, "I agree. As long as you can be happy and joyful, I am willing to do anything."

Su Qiangying:...

She hadn't expected that Moli would agree so readily.

Even if he hadn't agreed, she would have insisted to the end; at worst, she would have gone to court to sue for divorce. But because he agreed so readily, she didn't feel a sense of relief, but rather pain like a dull knife cutting into her flesh!

"Fine, see you at the Civil Affairs Bureau at 8:30 tomorrow morning."

"Mm."

She turned and returned to her room, slamming the door shut with a loud "bang," and tears slid down her cheeks.

She even felt a bit of resentment—why didn't Moli try to make her stay?

Moli didn't try to make her stay because he knew it would be useless.

A-Ying was a woman with a very firm mind; once she made up her mind, no one's persuasion would work.

The next day.

Su Qiangying hadn't slept all night. She climbed out of bed with two dark circles under her eyes, and as soon as she stepped down, she nearly fell to the floor, feeling lightheaded as if she were stepping on cotton.

Her brain was dizzy and her whole body was burning; it seemed she had fallen ill.

All of this was the fault of that bastard Sheng Moli.

Last night, feeling chest tightness, she had opened all the windows, and as a result, she caught a cold when the temperature dropped in the middle of the night.

But because her heart-fire was so intense, she hadn't felt the cold, yet she had a fever in the morning.

She wanted to find some fever medicine to take, but there was none at all in the house.

It turned out that Moli had personally taken care of all these trivial matters, and she had never needed to worry about them, but now that she had to do everything herself, she discovered that she couldn't do many things well.

Forget it, I won't take any; going to the Civil Affairs Bureau is more important.

Su Qiangying changed her clothes and went to the Civil Affairs Bureau, but Moli was not there.

She thought he was late and would arrive eventually, so she stood at the entrance and waited, but after waiting and waiting, she couldn't even stand anymore without him having arrived.

It clearly wasn't cold weather, and many people coming and going were wearing short sleeves, but even though she was wearing quite a lot, she was shivering from the cold.

Furthermore, she couldn't stand anymore; it was too cold, and she didn't know why she was this cold, but she truly couldn't stand, so she sat on the steps to continue waiting.

Time passed second by second, and forty minutes had already passed since the agreed-upon time, yet that damn man still hadn't arrived.

She called Moli, but what rang out was a strange woman's voice: "I'm sorry, the number you have dialed is powered off..."

Powering off must be intentional, intentionally not answering her call.
