Chapter 748: Chapter 748: The Great Person from a Caring Citizen’s Home

Suizi opened the book, and after just a glance, her eyes widened.

"Why didn’t you bring this out sooner?" Thought Suizi, but she didn’t dare say it out loud, only pondering to herself stealthily.

The little book of Fan Huang was too powerful. It recorded the affairs of Fan’s mother-in-law’s family over the years. Any random piece would be enough to keep Fan’s mother-in-law’s family busy for a while.

Suizi’s heart started to feel like a volcano ready to erupt. She felt like her dad was a dormant volcano with immense power. Generally inactive, but once he erupted, it would be cataclysmic; where the lava reached, all would be scorched...

Even someone as mentally resilient as Yu Jingting was shocked after reading this book. He repeatedly cursed under his breath.

The tone progressively increased.

"Damn...Damn? Damn!"

The commotion left the young couple inarticulate stun while Fan Huang was unruffled. He finished the porridge in front of him and wiped his mouth elegantly.

"This porridge is good, I will take some to your mom in a bit."

Suizi seemed to catch a fleeting glimpse of mischief in her father’s eyes. Was this old man doing this on purpose?

Pleased with the effect he had created, Fan Huang walked away without a word, leaving Suizi staring at his retreating figure, mumbling under her breath:

"You need to remind me in the future, never to offend Dad."

"No, even if you offend him, he might not be this angry."

The young couple looked at each other and exclaimed in unison, "We can’t offend our mom!"

If they antagonized Chen Lijun, it would be like stabbing Fan Huang’s heart.

This old man is too cunning, it’s scary.

If it weren’t for Fan’s mother dancing on the dad’s minefield and consistently irritating mom, dad would likely have tolerated her for some more time.

"I’m really curious, what kind of upbringing produced grandma’s personality?" Suizi could not comprehend.

"She was spoiled rotten, don’t worry, I will pamper you for life."

"...I don’t want to end up like her."

Yu Jingting laughed.

"You really don’t need to think about it, you will never have her reckless ’talent’ in this lifetime."

Fan’s mother received an excellent hand, it could even be said to be a supreme one. However, she ended up making a mess.

"This old lady does have some real skills, it’s not easy for ordinary people in her position to end up like this."

Yu Jingting pocketed the little book from his father-in-law. Suizi had decided to resolve matters quickly and suggested that they visit Fan’s mother together after breakfast, to give her a piece of their mind.

"I’m afraid it will not be as you wish. This old lady will be very busy these days, so we won’t have to take any action. I guess that by the afternoon, she will be arranging her tickets to hide out for a while."

"???"

Yu Jingting spread his hands innocently: "Wasn’t it you who taught me to be kind and do good deeds? I did a great thing last night."

"What?"

"I called the police. Mei Rui was victimized, and as a passer-by, shouldn’t I call the police on her behalf?"

Mei Rui was probably awake in the police station by now, nearly on the verge of breakdown.

"Those two men were hired by the old lady. Black-on-black crime victimized Mei Rui. Don’t you think Mei Rui’s family will want to settle accounts with her? Our grandma is already quite old and all stressed out dealing with these affairs. Should we really go add to her troubles?"

Suizi shook her head mechanically. Somehow, she was once again astounded by the cunning tricks Yu Jingting had devised.

"As law-abiding citizens, we can’t conceal information. Not only did I mention who those two men were and what they looked like, but I also courteously called Mei Rui’s family. Ah, my good-heartedness~"

Yu Jingting mimicked a dramatic gesture of someone clutching their chest, which prompted Suizi to stand up and pretend clawing in the air above his head.

"What are you doing?"

"I am checking if you are smoking yet—you really are, I think you’re smoking from all the cunning."

Suizi said sincerely.

He waited for those two to finish the job before calling the police, deflecting all responsibilities onto Fan’s mother. As a result, he was recognized as a "good citizen", killing two birds with one stone.

"But going back to the subject, how did Mei Rui faint?" Suizi’s attention was on Chen’s father at that time and she didn’t notice what had happened with Mei Rui.

"It was probably because my mom had them drug her."

Chen Lijun had a separate conversation with the two men, but Yu Jingting had not heard what it was about.

However, considering his knowledge of Chen Lijun, it would have been something unscrupulous.

Chen Lijun was way more ruthless than Suizi. If Mei Rui tried to steal her man, Chen Lijun would never give her a chance to breathe.

Whether or not there was a suggestion to drug Mei Rui is uncertain.

Due to an incident in Chen father’s room, everything was left unresolved, and everyone focused on rescuing Chen’s father, leaving Mei Rui left behind.

"At the police station, did you say that my mom incited them to drug her?" Suizi raised her eyebrows.

"Drug her? What does ’drug’ mean? I’ve never even heard of it. I just happened to be passing by and saw two men and a woman going into an alley, and in the time it took me to smoke a cigarette, her clothes were disheveled."

Every word of his was the truth. He had not lied.

He just made a little "omission."

When Mei Rui wakes up, she will never admit that she was drugged. She can only say that she had too much to drink and that those two men were her boyfriends.

Essentially, crime turned against crime. Mei Rui could only accept the losses. If she told the truth, she would have to face consequences herself.

Having a reputation of being promiscuous would be better than going to jail.

Yu Jingting’s motive for calling the police was to ensure that everyone around Mei Rui learned about what had happened. This way, even if Mei Rui didn’t face imprisonment, she wouldn’t dare to stay in Beijing.

"You really are merciless, using others as your weapon." Suizi placed a marinated quail egg in Yu Jingting’s bowl as a reward.

In just the time it took him to smoke a cigarette, he didn’t have to lift a finger; he used other people’s power to turn Fan’s mother’s situation into a total mess. Yet in Yu Jingting’s eyes, it’s merely a joke to cheer Suizi up and isn’t a big deal.

"Grandma probably has to hide out today, waiting for dad to clean up the mess for her before she comes back. Little does this old lady know, dad has no intention of covering for her anymore."

Suizi flashed a playful smile, inspired by Yu Jingting’s method of dealing with Mei Rui.

"Honey, do you know the ultimate way to take revenge on someone?"

"What?"

"Leaving her with nothing, but still making her thank us."

"You criticize me for being merciless; just look at yourself in the mirror, see the expression on your face." Yu Jingting leaned over to put his arm around her neck and gave her a big smooch.

His wife sparkled when being mischievous, and looked so damn good.

"Our principle is to never do wrong, but to merely help those with evil intent realize their foolishness... A great man once said, those who attempt to ride on people’s necks and oppress them will eventually render themselves infertile."

"Which great man?"

"Chen Hansui."
