Reborn as His Intellectually Disabled Wife-Chapter 755 - 756: Laying Down the Law (4)

Yuejie’s life was more than enough to drive them insane.

After escorting them back to the police station, Shi Mei returned home to await the outcome.

On the way back, Dongfang Xuanya couldn’t help but express, "I finally understand what you meant by wanting to do something exciting. It really was thrilling—I was scared to death!"

Shi Mei chuckled and buckled her seat belt, "Was it fun?"

"Fun!" Dongfang Xuanya exclaimed loudly, "But next time you’re having fun, could you give me a heads-up? I was scared out of my wits. I really thought I was going to be played by those guys today. If something had happened to me, my grandpa would have torn them all apart!"

"That’s so bloody. Is your grandpa really that fierce?"

"Humph, he’s not usually fierce, but if you cross his line, he won’t tolerate it at all and he gets extremely fierce," Dongfang Xuanya earnestly said, "But my grandpa hardly ever gets angry. He says that when he was young, he had a terrible temper and used up all his anger then, so now, as an older man, he’s very gentle. I don’t believe it, though."

Listening to Dongfang Xuanya, Shi Mei was not particularly concerned; her mind was preoccupied with what late-night snack to eat, "I’m hungry."

"...You can still eat?" Dongfang Xuanya felt like vomiting, "They disgusted me."

"How about hot pot?"

"No, I really don’t understand what those people were thinking. Aren’t they afraid of catching diseases with all that NP excitement?"

"Then, what about barbecue?"

"No, but how come Gao Lian was there with those cops today? Had you already arranged it with them? Just waiting for them to walk into your trap?"

"It’s ’fall into the net,’ not ’walk into your trap,’" Shi Mei corrected, driving steadily, "So, how about porridge?"

"I don’t feel like it," Dongfang Xuanya was a bit annoyed, "Did you already know they were coming after you?"

"Mm, I found out yesterday afternoon," Shi Mei replied indifferently, "I overheard Ma Jiaojiao and Wan Shi talking. They were planning to knock you out and then lure me over."

Dongfang Xuanya was shocked for a moment, "Knock me out? How?"

"I don’t know," Shi Mei was telling the truth, she really didn’t know, "But I do know their target was me."

"What exactly do they want to do?" Dongfang Xuanya was somewhat angry, "If they want to go after you, why do they need to knock me out!"

"Because you’re easy to deceive."

"Hey!"

Shi Mei laughed softly, "It’s the truth. But it’s also because you’re easy to deceive that they let their guard down."

However, what Shi Mei had not anticipated was that their eagerness to act wasn’t limited to Dongfang Xuanya; they had even pressed their luck by testing the waters at her dormitory.

Indeed, Yuejie’s perilous situation had already influenced their decision-making.

Hence, Shi Mei boldly speculated that Ma Jiaojiao would not just let things go.

Thus, she decided to expose a vulnerability.

While singing on stage, she intentionally tweaked her speaking style to sound more like her usual self at school, aiming to reveal a connection between Senior Sister and Shi Mei for them to discover. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Whether it was Ma Jiaojiao’s cajoling of Dongfang Xuanya or her reaction after going backstage, it was all within Shi Mei’s calculations.

Fortunately, she was right on the mark.

Catching this group today, Ma Jiaojiao played an indisputable role.

The Bai Family must be furious.

Now, all that was left was to await the police’s interrogation results.

Bai Yuejie had been in a coma for 30 hours straight.
