Chapter 7: The Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Villain
"You bitch, did you steal something from the house?"
Ruan Yuntang opened his eyes in confusion.
Shen Weian stood in front of her bed with a sullen face, and behind him stood Ruan Moli, who was wearing a high-necked shirt.
Seeing that he looked like he wanted to pull her off the bed, Ruan Yuntang was glad that she had the foresight to sleep with her clothes on.
"Why don't you hand over all of Jasmine's jewelry!" Shen Weian said, and without caring whether she could get up or not, he directly searched her drawers and makeup box on the spot.
After repeatedly touching nothing, Shen Weian's face changed drastically, "Where are your jewelry?"
"Aren't they all there?"
Ruan Yuntang stood up in a daze and put on a coat. After walking over, she suddenly exclaimed:
"Oh my god! Where are my jewelry!"
Shen Weian examined her expression and found nothing unusual. He slammed the table and asked, "Where did you go last night?"
Ruan Yuntang raised his eyes, his gaze passed over the four or five red marks on his neck without a trace, and he choked up:
"I finished cooking the eggs and came out to find you all asleep at Yang's house, so I came back to sleep by myself."
After saying that, she started crying again, "Dad, these are all the jewelry I have. You must help me find them back, or you can buy me new ones!"
Shen Weian's originally cautious expression made his eyelids twitch with anger after hearing her next words:
"What are you buying? Are you still willing to spend money without caring about your life at this time?"
"But that was the dowry my mother left me." Ruan Yuntang sobbed and looked at Ruan Moli, who was unusually silent today.
"Otherwise, ask my sister to return her jewelry to me!"
"Didn't you ask for a box yesterday?" Ruan Moli's lips trembled with anger. How could she have any jewelry now?
"Those are worthless, do you think I don't know what they are?" Ruan Yuntang said and looked at Shen Weian aggrievedly.
"I want to marry into the Yang family with all that money. What will the Yang family think of me?"
Ruan Moli's throat choked, and she was about to curse, but Shen Weian suddenly relaxed his brows and spoke to Ruan Yuntang:
"Have you figured it out?"
"I met Brother Chuan yesterday and I still think he's the best." Ruan Yuntang blushed and lowered his head, biting his lip in worry:
"But now all my jewelry has been stolen, and I don't even have a decent dowry."
"It's okay, Xiaochuan won't mind." Shen Weian said with a smile on his face.
"Even if Brother Chuan doesn't mind, what will the Yang family think of me? And what will his brothers in the army think of me?"
Ruan Yuntang wiped his eyes and said dejectedly, "Forget it, let's cancel the engagement. I don't want to embarrass him or our family."
“No!” Shen Wei’an mentioned it in his heart, and said without thinking: “I will find a way to deal with the dowry, and I will arrange it for you in the next two days.”
Two days?
Ruan Yuntang bit his lip tightly, "Then Daddy, can you give me the jewelry sets that my mother left for me?"
Shen Weian frowned and was about to speak when he heard her pleading softly:
"Xiaoxiao mentioned to me before that she really wanted a high-quality jade bracelet, and I also wanted to give Aunt He a nice set of jewelry."
It turns out that he wanted to please his mother-in-law and sister-in-law.
Shen Wei'an's expression improved, and after a moment of contemplation he said:
"I'll just buy you some other gifts for them. I'll keep your mother's jewelry for you later."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ruan Yuntang stared at him with his big, clear eyes.
"Dad, didn't you just say that it's not a good time to spend money?"
Then, she said with joy:
"Then if you can spend it, Dad, please buy me some more things. I also want a Casio watch, a Panda brand color TV, and a Phoenix brand bicycle..."
Shen Weian listened to this series of words, his scalp tingled, his face became worse and worse, and finally he slammed the table,
"Stop, I'll bring you your mother's jewelry in three days!"
"Okay." Ruan Yuntang nodded reluctantly, then asked hopefully, "Can we still buy those things?"
"The situation is tense, of course I can't buy it!"
Shen Weian glared at her fiercely, turned around and walked out the door quickly.
Ruan Moli followed behind with a look of astonishment on her face, looking at Ruan Yuntang again and again, totally unable to imagine how she could ask for so many things in such a short time.
Ruan Yuntang looked at her with a half-smile, "Sister, why are you wearing so much in such hot weather? Aren't you hot?"
"What do you care!" Ruan Moli's face turned pale, she clutched her collar and turned away.
Last night, the thief not only stole all her jewelry and money, but also took advantage of her. The key is that this matter must be kept secret. If this matter gets out, she will have no face to live.
Daddy now only thought that she had lost her jewelry, and her mother was still asleep, so she had no one to vent her grievances.
Near noon, two police officers came to Ruan's house.
Shen Weian felt that his house had really been robbed and called the police.
The whole family gathered in the living room and went up one by one to take statements.
Finally, it was the turn of Qin Qin and Jiang Yubai who had just come down from upstairs.
Qin Qin's face was rosy and full of spring, with a silk scarf tied around her neck and a strange walking posture.
It was obvious that the battle last night was very intense.
But it's only the last night.
Ruan Yuntang's lips curled up in a playful sneer, and as soon as he looked away, he met a pair of dark and indifferent eyes.
After looking at each other for a moment, Ruan Yuntang glanced at Jiang Yubai openly.
He was wearing a neatly-stitched white shirt with the second button on his collar undone half an inch, revealing his cold white collarbone. His cuffs were rolled up to his forearms, and his palms were wrapped in dark-patterned bandages.
His brow bones were as sharp as a knife, and his eyes, which were slightly drooping at the corners, were covered with a layer of cold mist. When he came down from upstairs, he made people feel inexplicably bright and frightened.
Jiang Yubai had noticed the girl downstairs staring at him intently. Her eyes were bold and focused, but there was no trace of shyness on her face.
He had seen countless loving eyes in his previous life, and he knew very well that it was definitely not like hers.
Shen Weian, who was taking notes, saw him and stood up immediately, "You are still in our house?"
Jiang Yubai's long legs strode into the living room, leaving behind a sharp shadow. Without any hesitation, he asked, "Can't you live here?"
Ruan Yuntang looked at Shen Weian's frustrated expression and almost gave him a thumbs up.
Novels really can't be trusted. In the books, there are beautiful, strong and miserable male supporting characters, but in reality, it seems that there is only beauty and strength.
In the corner of Jiang Yu's eyes, he saw the girl covering her mouth with a look of gloating, wanting to laugh but afraid to make a sound, just like a squirrel that had hidden nuts but couldn't hold back its pride.
On the other side, Shen Weian remembered that he had collected accommodation fees from Jiang Yubai in the beginning, and laughed dryly with a guilty conscience: "Of course I can stay."
Then he leaned over to the police officer and gave him an introduction.
The police officer's expression gradually became serious, and he called Jiang Yubai over to take a statement.
Ruan Yuntang's face changed slightly. Just as she was about to go over, Qin Qin suddenly grabbed her hand.
"I heard that Tangtang has come to her senses. That's good, but don't give away the jewelry your mother left for you. It's a way out that your mother and I left for you."
Ruan Yuntang paused and turned around, looking at her worried face, and suddenly said righteously:
"How can I just give it to Aunt He casually? She is not only my mother-in-law, but also my father's—"
