Chapter 82 Tearing Off the Mask, Sending Him In
"I was hit on the head and spent a long time in the hospital before I was saved."
Xu Yirou's voice was very calm.
"Why don't you go..." Li Guixiang almost blurted out the last word, "die."
But once she got to this point, Xu Yirou could easily guess what she was trying to say.
It seems that in her own mother's heart, she is probably not as important as five hundred yuan!
"If I can't repay this money, I might be sent to a labor camp."
When Li Guixiang heard Xu Yirou say this, she froze on the spot. After a long while, she finally asked, "You...you're telling the truth? You're not lying to me, are you?"
"You are my mother, I am your daughter, why would I lie to you?"
“This, Yi Rou, five hundred yuan, our family can’t afford it!” Li Guixiang said with difficulty.
Xu Yirou interrupted her directly: "I gave my job to Xu Yiqian more than three years ago. In these three years, she has earned more than a thousand yuan! And Xu Yinuo, he also has a salary. Can't you really come up with five hundred yuan from home?"
She was naive before, which is why she believed Li Guixiang's constant complaints about being poor. But her family, including her father, had three workers, which was better than many families in the city.
Will I really be poor?
Or is it just that I'm poor in front of her?
“Xu Yirou, what do you mean by this? Are you questioning me? You've been living in that poor, remote place for too long, and you've picked up all their bad manners! This is how you should talk to your mother…”
After venting her anger, Li Guixiang said in a pained tone, "You really made me furious! You should reflect on your actions!"
After saying that, he slammed the phone down.
Xu Yirou listened to the busy tone coming from the receiver, her face showing neither anger nor sorrow.
Anyway, this outcome was exactly what she had expected.
After paying the phone bill, Xu Yirou was about to go to the recycling station to see if she could find any more old books when she saw Yang Junqing standing outside the post office, obviously waiting for her.
A hint of impatience flashed in Xu Yirou's eyes. She nodded and prepared to leave.
Yang Junqing stopped her and handed her a water bottle: "Yi Rou, here, this is a water bottle I just bought. I haven't used it yet, and I just filled it with water. You must be thirsty!"
"No need, I'm not thirsty." Xu Yirou's pupils suddenly contracted when she saw the water bottle.
In her past life, Xie Manman had also handed her a water bottle in the same way, tricking her into drinking the water.
Who would have thought that the kettle actually contained veterinary drugs meant for breeding pigs and cattle?
After she drank the water, Xie Manman took her to Tong Yaozu's bed.
Now that Xie Manman has been arrested by the police, Yang Junqing is still coming to bring her water. She has no choice but to refuse without thinking.
Moreover, although she spent a long time on the phone with her family, she didn't actually say many words, and she wasn't thirsty at all.
"Yi Rou, although we're not dating, we've been classmates and neighbors for so many years. Now you won't even drink a sip of my water?" Yang Junqing feigned hurt.
"It's not that I'm unwilling, it's just that I'm really not thirsty."
The more Yang Junqing acted this way, the more vigilant Xu Yirou became.
"Since that's the case, hurry up and drink some water! Your lips are all dry." Yang Junqing continued to put the water bottle into her hands.
Xu Yirou couldn't refuse, so she simply accepted it.
Yang Junqing was delighted to see her accept the drink, but then noticed that she didn't drink it.
Xu Yirou sighed inwardly, glanced at the water bottle in her hand, and said, "Since that's the case, I'm not thirsty now. Let's go ride the oxcart first! I'll drink when I'm thirsty."
Yang Junqing quickly stopped her again: "Yi Rou, I still have things to buy, why don't you come with me to take a look?"
If he actually went to the intersection and got on Tong Deliang's oxcart, all his plans for the day would be ruined.
Xu Yirou's eyes turned cold. She had already given Yang Junqing a chance, but he was clearly determined to achieve his goal.
Since that's the case...
"Alright then! Let's head this way first!"
Yang Junqing saw that it was indeed in the direction of the inn and was even more pleased: "Great."
However, to his surprise, Xu Yirou walked straight into the police station as she passed by.
"Yi Rou, what are you doing?" Yang Junqing's pupils suddenly contracted, and he immediately had a bad feeling.
Xu Yirou ignored Yang Junqing and went straight into the police station. Her eyes swept around and she saw someone who was idle. She said, "Officer, I want to report a case."
Wu Yong'an was taken aback, then quickly asked, "Comrade, what case do you want to report?"
"It's him, he tried to drug me." Xu Yirou raised her hand and pointed directly at Yang Junqing outside the police station.
After saying that, she handed the water bottle to Wu Yong'an and said, "I'll trouble the police to check the water in this bottle and we'll know!"
Yang Junqing never dreamed that Xu Yirou would be so reckless as to hand over the kettle to the police.
Feeling guilty, he didn't even have time to think things through before instinctively turning around and trying to escape.
These days, hooliganism is a very serious crime; even if you don't get shot, you'll still have to go through decades of labor reform.
If you're convicted, your life is over.
Wu Yong'an originally wanted to ask Xu Yirou some more questions, but after seeing Yang Junqing fleeing in panic, he knew that this matter was most likely true.
He immediately lunged forward and pinned Yang Junqing down.
"Let me go! I didn't drug her, what right do you have to arrest me!"
Yang Junqing turned pale with fright. He had planned everything, but he hadn't expected that Xu Yirou would take the kettle directly into the police station without even verifying it.
"Behave yourself. Why are you running away if you didn't drug him? Do you think we're fools?" Wu Yong'an waved Chen Liguo over. "Take him away. Also, take that kettle to be tested and see what's in it."
Upon hearing Wu Yong'an's words, Yang Junqing instantly collapsed to the ground.
He knew he was finished.
Turning his head, Yang Junqing saw Xu Yirou standing calmly not far away and shouted hoarsely, "Xu Yirou, you bitch, why did you do this? Why did you ruin me?"
Xu Yirou looked at him coldly: "Do you want to destroy me, or do I want to destroy you? Yang Junqing, it's not that I didn't give you chances. Just now, I refused your water three times. If you had seized any of those opportunities and had any change of heart, you wouldn't be in this situation now."
"What do you mean I ruined you? I just wanted to marry you, how did that ruin you! You shameless woman, if you were willing to marry me honestly, why would I need to resort to such methods?"
