Chapter 457: Chapter 457: Liberation (50+ Monthly Tickets Updated)
Initially, Suizi thought that since Su Zhe has no motive or condition to commit the crime, the culprit must be the one who got his wheelchair.
Considering the act was of a lewd nature, she naturally suspected the culprit to be male.
However, when Su Zhe pointed out that Lun Lamei was a suspect, Suizi felt like her worldview was collapsing.
"But what is the point of her doing this as a woman?" Liao Yong asked, expressing the confusion of everyone present.
"Revenge. She wanted to take revenge on me and also get her hands on my money," Su Zhe stated seriously as he apologized to the shocked parents of the Meng Family.
"I’m sorry that due to my personal domestic problems, your daughter nearly froze to death."
The couple from the Meng Family shook their heads mechanically, overwhelmed by the unexpected outcome.
"The story starts from the bonus I received..."
Su Zhe started to tell the complicated history between him and Lun Lamei.
Previously, Lun Lamei had deceitfully gained favor from Su Zhe’s parents, persuading Su’s mother to buy medicinal herbs for her. She intended to sell the herbs for profit and then run away with the money.
The plan was flawless, but the arrival of Suizi and her family helped Su’s family to see Lun Lamei’s true colors.
Su’s mother stopped giving money to Lun Lamei, who planned to sell the herbs, but the manager of the medicine factory, Du Zhong, who is a close friend of Yu Jingting, stubbornly refused to pay Lun Lamei under Suizi’s instruction.
Lun Lamei couldn’t get the money, which made Li Youcai restless in prison.
Li Youcai lied to Lun Lamei, promising that as long as she got the money to help with his parole for medical treatment, he would take her away to live a good life.
Every trip Lamei made assured him that things were about to come through. Li Youcai, believing it wholeheartedly, was overjoyed.
While in prison, he was arrogant and rebellious, thinking that his departure from this hellish place was imminent, so he indulged and floated on cloud nine.
Previously being bullied, he now felt that he had found his footing and no longer needed to live in fear.
He even bribed the prison boss, promising that Lun Lamei would give his family a large sum of money in exchange for personal protection in prison, leading to a period of relative peace and comfort.
In prison, everyone respectfully called him "Brother Youcai".
As Li Youcai was in the midst of his pleasant dreams, thinking of his imminent release, Lun Lamei encountered Suizi and didn’t get a penny.
The prison boss’s family came to the prison and complained that they did not receive the money from Lun Lamei.
Li Youcai then hit upon hard times. He was beaten up, threatened, and told to feed the prison boss’s family quickly or face daily beatings.
Desperate, Li Youcai had no choice but to press Lun Lamei to figure out how to get the money.
Lun Lamei was given the runaround by Du Zhong with his Tai Chi moves each time she tried to get the money from the medicine factory. With only a few days left until the prison boss’s ultimatum, Lun Lamei was frantic.
At this critical moment, Yu Jingting arrived at Su’s family home and gave Su Zhe a technology transfer fee of 1,000 yuan.
Lun Lamei saw a glimmer of hope when the money was given right under her nose.
Although 1,000 yuan was a distance from her target, it was more than enough to solve their immediate problem and to alleviate her beloved "Brother Youcai" from suffering.
But just as Lun Lamei thought she could convince Su Zhe to hand over the money, Su’s mother stepped in.
Su’s mother took every cent of the money and refused to give it to Lun Lamei regardless of how much she protested.
In fact, Su’s mother set an ultimatum. If Lun Lamei wanted to take charge of Su Zhe’s finances, she had to give her a grandson, or even a granddaughter.
If she can have children, then Su’s mother would no longer bother about her son’s finances.
Otherwise, all the money Su Zhe earned would belong to Su’s mother.
Lun Lamei was only allowed to collect a small daily spending allowance.
That small amount of money, let alone save Li Youcai, she had to budget meticulously for even daily expenses.
Lamei was enraged but had nowhere to vent.
Above that, Suizi’s family visited Su’s home from time to time, which also irked Lamei.
Apart from dressing dashingly during their first encounter, which did provoke Lamei, Suizi dressed quite modestly in their following meetings. However, Lamei could read Suizi’s uncontainable happiness from her interaction with Yu Jingting.
If Suizi’s welath hurt Lamei’s pride, Suizi’s relationship with Jingting was something Lamei could just not bear to witness.
Furthermore, Su Zhe had recognized Suizi’s two little Luobos as godchildren, which was soul-crushing for Lamei.
Every time Suizi brought her children, and after they left, Su Zhe and his mother would discuss how lovely the children were, even Su’s mother who is usually very harsh couldn’t help but like the little Luobos.
The more they liked the little Luobos, the more satirical they became towards Lamei.
This heap of blows pushed her to the edge, and Lamei detonated.
Suizi never directly retaliated against her. However, Suizi’s good life was a torture to Lamei, more painful than killing her.
Lamei lied low for a long time and finally saw her opportunity.
Last night it snowed, Su Zhe was playing chess with his father, and Su Mother went out for a date with an old man.
Lamei was assigned by Su’s mother to repair Su Zhe’s wheelchair.
After a long time, there was a bit of rust on the wheels of Su Zhe’s wheelchair, so she had to take it to a bicycle repair shop for oiling.
On the way back, Lamei saw the children playing rubber band skipping, and a wicked thought suddenly crossed her mind.
If Su Zhe was sent to jail like Li Youcai, the Su’s home would certainly be in chaos.
Once the Su family is in chaos, she could seize the opportunity to take the money and run.
Even if she couldn’t get the money, taking revenge on Su Zhe would be satisfying.
Though Su Zhe never harmed Lamei, she despised him to the core, blaming this crippled man for squandering her youth, and trapping her dreams within this small house.
Suizi had previously advised her to live well with Su Zhe, even stating that if she treated Su Zhe well, he would never mind her past, and the two of them might support each other into old age.
Suizi’s words, however, only fueled Lamei’s rebellion, driving her to an obsessive belief that she would indirectly take revenge on Suizi by harming Su Zhe.
With the elder Yu family protecting Suizi, Lamei could find no opportunity to strike, so she had to make her move on the seemingly vulnerable disabled Su Zhe.
After Su Zhe finished recounting all of this, the room fell into a dead silence.
For the Meng couple, the news was a mixture of grief and joy.
Perhaps it was good news for the Meng family that their daughter hadn’t been molested, even though she had almost frozen to death and had several frostbites on her body. But her reputation at least had been kept, and the Meng family didn’t have to move because of this. Their daughter wouldn’t be the talk of the town.
Suizi saw their expressions, guessing what the couple was thinking, and felt complicated emotions.
If Lamei turned out to be the real culprit, it might be a relief for everyone.
