Pampered By All In Different Planes-Chapter 238: After Kicking Out the Scumbag, the Aloof Buddhist Son Dotes on His Wife 38
"Then tell me, what are you doing with this medicine? If I remember correctly, you don’t usually carry medication with you, nor do you have any illness that would suddenly necessitate carrying this bottle. What is it?" Su Zhiruan stood at the front, her expression calm yet her eyes carried a faint murderous intent. She held a phone in her left hand, making no attempt to hide that she was recording, while her right hand reached into her pocket.
At this point, many residents had also sensed that something was off. Those with phones turned them on, and those who liked to live stream started doing so.
"This is... this..." Jiang Beiyu’s gaze drifted; he swallowed hard, unable to look at Su Zhiruan, "This is my quick heart-saving pill. I was diagnosed with heart disease a while ago, and I keep it for self-rescue."
"Self-rescue?" Su Zhiruan’s tone was somewhat playful, "So you intended to break into my house and steal things at this time, even going so far as to climb the wall to get in, and the quick heart-saving pill you carried was for your own rescue?"
"I didn’t steal anything!" Jiang Beiyu didn’t know what to say under these circumstances, so he clung to the point that he hadn’t stolen anything, "I just wanted to see you, I wanted to win you back!"
"Is your way of winning me back to force your way into my house, set off the alarm, get caught, and then have me come to see you?" Su Zhiruan chuckled.
Jiang Beiyu mistook this for Su Zhiruan giving him a way out, as if they could settle privately and if Su Zhiruan admitted himself that he wasn’t a thief, his charges could be cleared. So he hastily nodded, "Yes, yes, that’s right!"
His look towards Su Zhiruan was pleading and grateful; after all, if his true intentions were exposed, what would await him was further disgrace.
His calculations were neat, but how could Su Zhiruan, who had set the trap herself, let him escape so easily?
She changed the subject, her tone light and easy.
"Do you dare to eat that quick heart-saving pill of yours right now?" Her expression was smiling. When she spoke of the quick heart-saving pill, her tone was light and breezy, as if she were discussing a simple exchange of candy between children.
But to Jiang Beiyu’s ears, that was a nightmare!
In that instant, he just about shivered all over.
"It seems Brother Beiyu is unwilling, eh?" Su Zhiruan took two steps forward, and the residents’ gossip-hungry phones rose up in a hurry, eager not to miss any exciting moments. Su Zhiruan stood three meters away from him and cheerily added, "After all, we were once fiancés. Why not hand that bottle of pills over to me, or let the police comrades test it? After all, you can’t ignore heart disease, and I do worry about your health."
"I... I’ll eat it!" Jiang Beiyu almost ground his teeth to push out those words. He looked at the pill bottle in his hand, his heart drumming.
He knew nothing about the manufacturing and origin of this medicine, but he was all too clear about what eating it would do.
The only thing that gave him a glimmer of hope was that the pill his mother gave him was gender-specific; after all, when his mother handed it to him, she merely said that even the most steadfast and chaste women would fall, without mentioning what might happen to a man.
With a try-it-and-see attitude, Jiang Beiyu willingly poured out the yellow-brown pill from the bottle and swallowed it.
Su Zhiruan watched him quietly, her face expressionless, still holding up her phone.
The man who thought he had caught a thief was now somewhat puzzled. At first, he thought he had just caught a thief, but as he watched, things began to seem off, and seeing many people behind him recording with their phones, he didn’t just stand by; he also raised his phone to record.
Right after swallowing it, Jiang Beiyu felt no reaction in his body, everything was normal, and he internally celebrated, while pretending to be nonchalant, "See? This is just a simple quick heart-saving pill."
"You know Ruanruan, you’re too sensitive. I really did want to see you. I even bought flowers, just wanting to spend the evening with you," Jiang Beiyu lamented in silence since he couldn’t express the bitterness of his predicament.
After all, his motives were impure.
Su Zhiruan gave a faint smile, "It seems I misunderstood Brother Beiyu, how could your heart suddenly fall ill, have you gone to the hospital for a checkup?"
"I haven’t. It’s just that—" Jiang Beiyu was about to speak but suddenly found that his body was undergoing a series of changes.

He incredulously looked down.
After that, the blood throughout his body began to surge and swell, finally concentrating at a certain point.
In full view of the public, that spot abruptly enlarged, became engorged, and then swelled.
Some parents who had brought their children to watch the commotion quickly covered their children’s eyes and started whispering among themselves.
Jiang Beiyu was wearing fitted suit pants, the kind that cling to the thighs, so when these changes occurred after he took the pill, everything was recorded, and in full view of all the onlookers.
The faces of the police officers had already turned grave, and a few of them had even started to contact the chief.
Following that, Jiang Beiyu’s complexion turned the color of liver, his eyes became blurry, and his entire consciousness became hazy. If it weren’t for the two officers who held him in time, Jiang Beiyu might have already collapsed to the ground.
After he was grasped, he did not stay calm but tangled with the two officers, attempting to lean on them. The two big men, police officers for so many years, had never seen such a disgusting incident. They held Jiang Beiyu as if grasping a hot potato, unsure of what to do.
"Comrades of the police, I have reason to suspect that Jiang Beiyu is in illegal possession of drugs, trafficking, and has been enticing, instigating, and forcing others to take drugs!" Su Zhiruan put away her phone and said with righteous indignation.
After she finished her sentence, the scene fell silent.
Everyone took a collective step back.
The police, having had their suspicions, now immediately took Jiang Beiyu into custody.
The man who thought he had caught a thief was dumbfounded to find out that he had in fact apprehended a drug criminal.
In Jinghua, as well as the entire country, drugs are to be combatted and eradicated at all costs.
Jiang Beiyu’s expression and demeanor just moments ago were exactly like someone who had taken drugs.
They had thought they were only there to catch a thief, but who could have imagined that this person was not just a thief, but a criminal. In an instant, the entire police force was on guard, and without lingering, they placed Jiang Beiyu in the police car and headed back first.
Now, the scene was left with two groups of people uncertain what to do.
One group was represented by Su Zhiruan’s neighbor and the other was the security team prepared to remove a thief.
But at this moment, the thief had transformed into a criminal and was directly taken away by the police, leaving the two groups looking at each other, at a loss for what to do next.
"I’d like to thank everyone today, especially this gentleman," Su Zhiruan concluded the event, "if it weren’t for him, we might not have discovered that a criminal was nearly among us in our community!"
After she finished speaking, the crowd erupted into thunderous applause, and the gentleman could not help but feel embarrassed.
