The Scheming Billionaire's Heartfelt Devotion-Chapter 552 - 567: Underestimated Her Shamelessness

Han Xi had already taken out his phone from his pocket and recorded every word Jian Ru said without missing a beat. Finally, he caught her red-handed.

She was indeed a malicious woman with a deceptive appearance.

After hanging up the phone, Jian Ru came out of the stairwell. When she opened the door, she was completely stunned: "Sis, how are you here?"

Han Xi stood with his arms crossed, leaning against the wall, and looked at her with clear eyes filled with disgust: "So, you really are such a despicable and treacherous woman. What do you think will happen to your wedding if my grandmother finds out about this?"

Jian Ru forced herself to calm down. She lifted her hand to tuck her long hair behind her ear, smiling slightly: "Sis, what are you talking about? I don’t understand anything."

"Your improvisation skills are truly vivid, it’s a pity you’re not an actress."

"Sis, is there some misunderstanding between us? If there’s anything I’ve done wrong, please let me know."

Jian Ru looked at Han Xi with an expression of feeling wronged yet refusing to argue, appearing so pitiful that it could evoke sympathy from anyone.

Her current strategy was to deny it till the end. After all, Han Xi didn’t have any evidence. If it came down to the old lady, she could just play innocent—it all depends on one’s words anyway.

"Then continue pretending, give your best performance. I believe in you."

Han Xi smirked sarcastically at Jian Ru, patted her shoulder, and walked away.

Returning to the booth, Han Xi did not expose her immediately, as there were many relatives and friends present. It was necessary to inform the old lady in advance.

Jian Ru returned to her seat, poured a glass of juice, and walked up to Han Xi: "Sis, I toast to you with this glass, hoping we can get along like real sisters in the future."

Han Xi looked up at Jian Ru and really underestimated her shamelessness: "No one can say for certain about the future, so you’d better seize the time to act."

After speaking, Han Xi picked up the glass of water on the table and took a small sip, a faint cold smile on her lips.

Jian Ru drank the juice in her hand without any change in her expression, then turned around and went back to her seat.

The old lady had been chatting with the person next to her and did not notice what was happening over there at all.

Chu Ci put down his chopsticks and glanced at Han Xi: "Why did you suddenly become so sharp? Did something happen?"

"I caught something on her."

"What did you catch? Hurry up and share it with us, I really want to see her embarrassed."

Li Manman leaned in gossiping, smiling rather mischievously.

Han Xi glanced around and spoke in a voice only the three of them could hear: "While she was on the phone just now, she said she plans to drug Yichen’s food tomorrow night. Once she’s pregnant, the Wen family’s property would all be hers. I recorded it."

"Nicely done! So she was just now trying to win you over, hoping you won’t spill the beans."

Li Manman felt overjoyed, eager to tear apart the white lotus. Just thinking about it was thrilling.

"She doesn’t know I’ve already recorded her. Just now, she was still pretending to be dumb and clueless, denying everything."

Chu Ci smiled, raising his head to glance at Jian Ru: "This little girl, though young, is quite scheming. I wonder how she plans to protect herself later."

"Of course, she’ll pull out all the stops, play the coward or go for the drama queen, making a scene or pretending to hang herself. No matter how she struggles, she definitely can’t keep her position as Mrs. Wen."

Han Xi would never let such a woman marry into the Wen family.

After the meal, after seeing off the relatives and friends, everyone returned to the old house. Han Xi helped the old lady out of the car: "Grandma, there’s something I need to discuss with you."
