Chapter 794: A Ruthless Strike

She had promised repeatedly that she would definitely not look for Moli again.

Jian Yixin wrote her a check, and after Yuke took it and kissed it, she left, satisfied.

……

The nursing home.

When Shi Youxuan received the message, she was halfway to the hotel; upon seeing the message, she immediately changed direction without hesitation and headed straight for the nursing home.

Upon arriving, she found that her father and Shi Liu had both collapsed on the table, and she was terrified.

She hurriedly called a doctor to examine them, and after the examination, the doctor said, "It's nothing, they just took a high-potency sleeping pill; they'll be fine once they wake up."

While Shi Youxuan breathed a sigh of relief, she also quickly discovered something suspicious.

Who would take sleeping pills for no reason early in the morning?

Shi Liu's Invitation was still safely in his pocket, but her father's Invitation had vanished, and Yuke was nowhere to be found.

Connecting these few things together, Shi Youxuan immediately thought that Yuke had very likely gone to the hotel to cause trouble.

The nursing home was very far from the Crown Hotel, and she feared it would be too late if she rushed over now, so she had her husband call Sheng Zerong to inform him, telling them to be careful and, preferably, to increase security.

Upon learning that Yuke had already arrived at the hotel and been led upstairs by Jian Yixin to negotiate, Shi Youxuan optimistically felt that it was fine and the situation was already under control.

As long as it didn't turn into a scene in front of the public, it was fine if the situation could be controlled; future matters could be dealt with later.

But Hanyu frowned, lost in thought.

……

Crown Hotel.

Yuke walked forward with a strange, wiggling gait, kissing the check in her hand as she walked.

She was truly so happy; she hadn't expected to get one billion so easily.

With this much money, wouldn't it be enough to squander for a lifetime even if she spent it with her eyes closed?

Yuke didn't want to "start a business" anymore; it was better to be a wealthy woman without a care in the world. Let others earn the money; she would only be responsible for spending it.

Money was truly a good thing; she prepared to leave Jiangzhou and go to the United States for surgery.

Ji Yingjie was too detestable, actually coming up with such a vicious trick to deal with her, making her life worse than death.

Once the surgery was done and she had recovered her health, the first thing she would do was hire a killer to go to the Ji Family and kill that old witch!

Yuke didn't dare go herself.

She both hated and feared Ji Yingjie; she wanted her to die or suffer a fate worse than death, but she didn't dare to take revenge herself.

There is a kind of viciousness—called not even daring to take revenge on you after becoming a ghost!

Once all this was done, she planned to return to Jiangzhou again to find a man, to find a handsome man with money and power to marry herself off in a grand and glorious way.

The standard for a man……

Must not be worse than Sheng Hanyu.

Of course, it was impossible to never look for Moli again, despite what she had promised.

In her eyes, Moli was no longer just a son; he was a cash cow.

Since she could easily get one billion from Jian Yixin this time, there would be no problem asking for more next time—ten billion, one hundred billion…… Before her eyes, it was no longer a corridor, but lots and lots of money fluttering down.

It dazzled her eyes and also dazzled her heart.

Yuke was smug and self-satisfied, only focused on her own wishful thinking, but she didn't notice at all that someone was following behind her!

To celebrate Moli's birthday today, the Crown Hotel had cleared out its rooms several days ago and was no longer hosting guests.

Therefore, it was lively downstairs, but very quiet upstairs.

Jian Yixin followed behind Yuke, her fists clenched tightly, her gaze revealing determination and ferocity.

She understood Yuke too well.

That woman would never be satisfied with this money; once the door was opened, her appetite would only grow larger in the future, so today, she could not let her walk out of the hotel alive.

The elevator entrance.

Yuke pressed the button, but there was no response.

She pressed it again, still no response.

"What's going on? Can the elevator in such a high-end hotel even have a power outage?"

Yuke muttered, walking toward the stairwell.

This was the third floor, not very high, and although her knees hurt, she was in a good mood, so walking down the stairs slowly was fine too.

The stairwell was very dark, not even having lights.

As soon as she walked in, Yuke regretted it; she didn't know why, but the image of her pushing Shi Youxuan down the stairs back then suddenly appeared in her mind.

There had been a light on the stairs back then too, but she had deliberately unscrewed the bulb; now that the stairwell light wasn't on, couldn't it also be man-made?

She regretted it and wanted to leave.

"Ah!"

Just as she was thinking this, someone behind her suddenly gave her a fierce shove; Yuke instinctively grabbed for the railing, but her hand grasped at empty air.

She tumbled down the stairs.

Her head kept hitting the hard marble steps, and the pain from her knees was even more excruciating; at first, she could still feel the pain.

Later, she didn't know anything anymore.

Jian Yixin left in a hurry.

She left too hastily and didn't notice at all that a figure had also entered the stairwell after she left……

The banquet hall.

"How is it? Has that woman left?" Sheng Zerong asked.

Jian Yixin forced herself to remain calm: "She left; she extorted one billion from me and got lost!" The last two words were squeezed out from between her teeth.

Although he felt that doing this was a bit inappropriate, he didn't say much else.

He even comforted his wife: "It's good that she's gone; spend money to avert disaster."

……

Shi Youxuan rushed to the hotel and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that nothing was amiss. However, Jian Yixin was acting strange.

She couldn't say exactly where it was strange, but she could just feel that something was wrong with her.

Sheng Zerong did not keep the matter of Yuke coming to extort money a secret and told the two of them.

"I'm going to settle the score with her and make her spit the money back out." Shi Youxuan went to make a phone call, but Jian Yixin instead tried to persuade her: "Forget it, Ze Rong just said it too, spend money to avert disaster."

"Yixin, you are just too kind. For some people, spending money doesn't avert disaster; she will latch onto you like a leech, stuck to you to suck your blood for a lifetime."

Shi Youxuan wanted to make the call, but Jian Yixin firmly blocked her and wouldn't allow it.

Her mind was now completely filled with the scene of Yuke being pushed down the stairs by her.

Would she die?

Jian Yixin did not regret what she had just done at all; she only worried that Yuke might be fine.

"It's bad, it's bad, someone died in the stairwell!"

A waiter ran into the banquet hall in a panic, his face pale with fright.

Hearing that someone had died, everyone panicked, except for Jian Yixin, who breathed a sigh of relief.

Great, that menace is finally dead!

……

Moli's birthday banquet was cut short because a murder case occurred at the hotel.

However, after Yuke was discovered, she was not dead; people found she still had breath and immediately sent her to the hospital for emergency treatment.

When Jian Yixin took Yuke upstairs, everyone saw it. When she came down alone, no one thought much of it, but when Yuke was found unconscious in the stairwell, everyone couldn't help but think about the reason behind it.

After the police arrived, Jian Yixin was taken away as a suspect.

Police station.

She confessed to the matter without reservation, frankly admitting that she was the one who pushed Yuke down the stairs, and explained the reason was that Yuke seduced her husband and even extorted one billion from her!

She couldn't take the anger and was confused for a moment, so she pushed Yuke down the stairs.

Just when this matter was basically settled, a complication arose.

Lady Jian arrived at the police station to surrender herself.

She said that Yuke was pushed down the stairs by her, because that woman seduced her son-in-law and repeatedly extorted her daughter, so she wanted to warn Yuke.

But that woman wouldn't listen to reason and even spoke harshly to her; the two argued a few words in the stairwell, and in a moment of agitation, she pushed Yuke, and the woman lost her footing and tumbled down the stairs.

The mother and daughter said almost the same thing, and the police couldn't tell for a moment who was telling the truth and who was lying, so they locked them both up.
