"Become a leader? Do you think I'm stupid? Zhou Jian'an swindled tens of millions of yuan from people and ran away to Hong Kong with Zhou Chufei, leaving you alone on the mainland. Your second daughter is even more ruthless. In order to run away, she didn't care about Zhou Jian'an's life or death and even ruined Zhou Huilan's whole family. Now Zhou Huilan's whole family is in jail. After all this, you still want to lie to me."
Jiang Meifeng's arrogance was instantly suppressed to just a small flame.
She dared to come to Shu Hui because she thought Shu Hui was unaware of Zhou Jian'an and Zhou Chufei's escape.
This is too shameful. Shu Hui and Zhou Jian'an are divorced, so naturally she can't stand to see Zhou Jian'an doing well.
Jiang Meifeng wanted to keep it a secret, but little did she know that Shu Hui knew everything.
Every expression on Shu Hui's face seemed to mock her for being abandoned.
She loved Zhou Jian'an and Zhou Chufei so much, but when they ran away, they didn't take her with them, leaving her all alone in the mainland to suffer so much. The last bit of faith in Jiang Meifeng's heart collapsed.
Since Shu Hui knows everything, there's no need for her to put on an act anymore.
Jiang Meifeng rolled up her sleeves. "Old Jiang, what's wrong with lying to you? I just want some money from you, and you can't have it? Let me tell you straight, I want a thousand yuan, and you have to give it to me whether you like it or not. If you don't give me the money, I'll go to Chu Yu's school and make a scene. If Chu Yu doesn't give it to me, I'll go to Chu Xiang's school and make a scene. If Chu Xiang doesn't give it to me, I'll go to Chu Chu's school and make a scene. If you don't give it to me today, you have to give it to me tomorrow. If you still don't give it to me, I'll kidnap Chu Chu and sell her for money! I'll sell that damned girl to human traffickers, sell her to some remote mountain village to be someone's wife, break both her legs, and make sure she can never escape for the rest of her life!"
Shu Hui's chest ached with anger.
Wang Lan and several of her employees rushed over to help her up.
“Sister, I’ve never seen a grandmother like this before. She’d sell her granddaughter if she didn’t get paid, and she wanted to sell her to the mountains. That’s so vicious,” Wang Lan said.
The new employee, Xiao Zhou, also said:
"Even someone as good-natured as Sister Hui couldn't live with their family, which shows how immoral they are."
"You bet she is! That old hag is so vicious! Even I, an outsider, get angry just listening to her, and I wish I could fight her to the death."
Shu Hui was at a loss. She didn't want to give money to Jiang Meifeng, the kind mother-in-law who had bullied her.
But her daughter is her weakness. It's okay if Chu Yu and Chu Xiang are older, but if Chu Chu is that young, she'll never be found again.
Jiang Meifeng is a hidden bomb, ready to explode at any moment. Shu Hui cannot gamble with her conscience.
She considered giving him the money.
Wang Lan sensed her thoughts, leaned close to Shu Hui's ear, and whispered:
"Sister, you can't give her this money. Today she threatens you for a thousand, tomorrow she'll threaten you for ten thousand, and the day after tomorrow she'll threaten you for a hundred thousand. You can't give in to her every time, can you?"
"But she's heartless. What if she really lays a hand on my daughter..."
Shu Hui's worries were not unfounded. Child abduction is not uncommon these days. Several children from Wang Lan's hometown had been taken away, and some older girls had been drugged on trains and taken to the mountains to be wives and have children.
At most, trafficked children are moved to a different home. To put it bluntly, they are lucky if they survive.
Those women were in a terrible situation.
She was locked in a dry well and woodshed, chained up like a dog. When a man wanted a child, he would go in and have sex with her until she became pregnant and gave birth to two or three children. When her heart was with the children and she stopped running away, the man would untie her chains.
These days, it's rare for abducted women and children to be found again.
If Jiang Meifeng were truly despicable, she could find a van, block Chuchu's way home from school, hire two grown men to forcibly take her into the van, and then sell her off. Shu Hui would have nowhere to turn then.
"Sister, just let her go find Chu Yu. Chu Yu told us not to be afraid of anyone who tries to cause trouble, she will handle it. She's educated and has a lot of ideas, so just let her deal with your ex-mother-in-law, she definitely has a way to handle her."
Shu Hui was upset and had no other choice, so she agreed to Wang Lan's suggestion.
Xiao Zhou brought over a few male employees and coaxed Jiang Meifeng out of the house.
Jiang Meifeng hadn't expected Shu Hui to be so bold. She narrowed her eyes and said sharply:
"You dare treat me like this, Shu Hui? Just you wait! I'll show you what I'm capable of!"
That evening, Wang Lan made a special trip to Tsinghua University. Finding a student at such a large university was no easy task. Fortunately, Chu Yu was a celebrity at the school, and she just stopped a student, who rode his bicycle to help her get in.
"Chu Yu!" Wang Lan waved her hand and thanked the student.
The male student glanced at Chu Yu, his cheeks burning, and said, "Senior Sister Chu Yu, I'm a junior from the Computer Science Department. I take classes in the same building as you, and we have the same teachers. Please guide me in the future."
Chu Yu found him somewhat familiar; she seemed to have seen him on the computer science department's popularity list. She was very enthusiastic about Tsinghua University students. There was no way around it; Tsinghua University gathered the nation's top talents. In the future, when Chu Yu started her company and needed to hire people, she would definitely have to start with Tsinghua University.
Chu Yu smiled warmly at his junior, "It's not really instruction; we can learn from each other in the future."
The junior student had never seen such a beauty overload before. He blushed and walked away awkwardly.
Before coming to Tsinghua University, Wang Lan wouldn't have known that Chu Yu was so popular at school. Come to think of it, she's not only beautiful but also talented. Girls like her can't help but like her, let alone the opposite sex.
"What happened? What's wrong at the store?"
She had previously told Wang Lan to tell her if anything happened at the store.
Wang Lan came to her senses and told Chu Yu about Jiang Meifeng threatening Shu Lan. Chu Yu thought she had seen wrong, but it turned out that the old woman she met at the restaurant was indeed Jiang Meifeng.
Zhou Jian'an ran away, and Jiang Meifeng was kept in the news for so long. Chu Yu thought she had learned her lesson, but who knew she would still not shed a tear until she saw the coffin.
