After hanging up the phone, Shen Wanci called the police. Ten minutes later, the police arrived, and after understanding the situation, they persuaded the landlord and his men to leave.

The scolding voices faded away, and she was wide awake. She crossed her legs on the sofa and opened a certain website to start looking for a suitable house.

Tonight, the two sides tore each other apart. She definitely won't continue to live here.

I just saw a pretty good house and was about to click on the details page when I got a call from an unknown international number.

Shen Wanci had no friends abroad. If it had been before, she would have hung up directly as a scam call, but this time...

She stared at the string of numbers for a long time, until it was almost about to be disconnected automatically, before she swiped across the screen and answered, "Hello."

Then came a familiar yet strange voice: “Wanci, it’s Dad.”

Shen Wanci had expected this, so upon hearing it, she impatiently asked: "What is it?"

"Dad just wants to ask you how you've been doing in China these past few years, before..."

Shen Wanci interrupted him: "State your purpose, or I'm hanging up."

If it weren't for getting back her mother's belongings, she wouldn't even bother answering the phone!

Shen Zhenan was so angry that he took a few deep breaths to calm down. "Your sister called me yesterday and said she had her eyes on Yu Cheng. Arrange a suitable time for the two of you to have dinner together and get to know each other."

Shen Wanci was silent, already guessing the reason.

Seeing that she remained silent, Shen Zhenan thought he had a chance and began to brainwash her: "Dad knows you're feeling wronged, but you and Xiaoxuan are sisters by blood after all. Even though you married into the Bo family, your relationship with Mr. Bo isn't good... Discarding you would be as simple as throwing away an old rag. But if your sister marries Nie Yucheng, even if Mr. Bo is determined to divorce you, Xiaoxuan can become your support, ensuring that you live a comfortable life for the rest of your days."

Shen Wanci got straight to the point: “Return my mom’s belongings to me.”

"I brought all those things to the US. International express delivery is strictly checked. What if they get lost on the way?"

What else is there, everything that can be sold has been sold, and anything that can't be sold has been thrown away!

"Then there's nothing more to say."

Shen Wanci hung up the phone directly. The next second, Shen Zhen'an called again——

"I'll send it to you right away. Pay close attention to what I tell you, your sister can't wait."

This time, the tone was icy and filled with disgust. They didn't even bother with a facade.

Shen Wanci fell silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Where were you the night my mother had an accident?"

“I’ve told you many times, your grandmother wasn’t feeling well that night and I went to see her.”

"You left at eight, but didn't arrive at the old house until eleven."

It only takes half an hour to drive from the Shen family's old house. Shen Wanci remembers very clearly that her mother had a car accident at around 9:00 pm, and the taxi she was riding in sped into a truck parked on the side of the road.

That section of road was under repair at the time, with half the streetlights removed, making visibility very poor. The truck was parked illegally and hadn't turned on its lights, so it was a fifty-fifty blame situation.

Her mom usually drove to and from work herself, but during that time, Shen Zhen'an happened to be doing construction near her workplace and had to go there every day to check on it. So, he offered to drive her to work and pick her up after, saying it was convenient for him as well.

Only that night, there was nothing like that, and then Mom had an accident!

Shen Zhenan was so angry that he used the tone of an enemy to angrily scold, "The police investigation has already said it was an accident. You keep clinging to it, what? Don't you think I killed your mother? If it wasn't for you making your grandmother angry that day, she wouldn't have had a heart problem? If she hadn't been upset, I wouldn't have gone to pick up your mother? To say that someone really killed your mother, it is also you who is the culprit!"

After saying that, the other party hung up the phone. Shen Wanci held back her emotions and bit her lip tightly……

One night without sleep, my mind is filled with Mom's past smiles.

The next morning, Shen Wanci went to a real estate agency to look for houses after waking up. They were all in the nearby area, and she chose one not long after. The landlord could come over to sign the contract after work.

After taking care of the house matters, Shen Wanci went back to pack her belongings. But as soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw a man standing at her door, stealthily trying to pick the lock.

Shen Wanci casually twisted open a fire extinguisher, "What are you doing at my doorstep?"

The person was intently fiddling with her doorknob. Hearing the sound, she jumped in fright and nearly leaped up from where she stood, quickly turning to face her.

The man hurried to explain: "Don't misunderstand, I was hired by the landlord to open the lock. She's your mother, right? She was just here a moment ago, went to answer a phone call."

Shen Wanci's face turned cold, "I'm a tenant, the contract hasn't expired, so I am the one who has the right to use this apartment. She has no right to have someone come and break in..."

Before he could finish speaking, the landlord burst out of the fire escape. "This is my house, and I can do whatever I want with it. I won't rent to you anymore, get out right now!"

"Are you still going to stay at the police station for a few days?"

As soon as the landlord mentioned the police station, he immediately wilted!

"Girl, I really have urgent business to sell the house, you can't be unreasonable! Look, this way, I'll return all your rent and deposit, and consider the time you've lived here as a treat from me!"

"You don't need to waive my rent, I'll move out naturally when the contract expires."

"Little girl, when I beg you!" The landlord cried with a tear-streaked face, she sobbed and wailed, her nose running and tears streaming.

Because of this incident, Shen Wanci brought her own suitcase when she signed the contract in the evening.

During the day, the landlord even dares to call a locksmith to pry open the door. At night, I don't know what else he'll do. It's already unbearable and I can't live here anymore.

When she arrived, the new landlord hadn't come yet. She waited for a while, but the broker walked over with an embarrassed face, "I'm sorry, Ms. Shen, the landlord decided not to rent it out."

Shen Wanci frowned, so sudden, worthy of someone's style!

That bastard, Bo Jingzhou!

She cursed the person in her heart, and then asked the broker, "What if I rent a different house?"

"I'm sorry, Ms. Shen, we don't have any listings that meet your requirements at the moment."

In the morning, she still had dozens of choices to pick from. Now there were no available properties. Shen Wanci had expected this outcome and wasn't bothered enough to argue. She dragged her suitcase and left.

Before leaving, she sent a message to Bo Jingzhou ——

I'd rather sleep in a bridge hole than let you get your way, you thin dog!

If you're capable, buy up all the houses in the world. Otherwise, I can't respect you.

You bastard, you son of a bitch, I curse you to have premature ejaculation on Jian Weining's bed!

She sent three messages in a row, each one repeatedly jumping back and forth on the bottom line of Bo Jingzhou's...
