Bai Mei had her keys with her.
She returned home, tidied up the house until it was neat and orderly, and even prepared a meal specifically waiting for Jiang Yinzhu to come back.
As soon as Jiang Yinzhu saw this, he flipped the table right then and there.
This terrified Jiang Xiaobao into bursting into loud wails.
Bai Mei cried and begged him, saying she knew she was wrong.
She also promised him that Xiang Tao would absolutely never see her and Jiang Xiaobao again.
Furthermore, Xiang Tao had given her a sum of money.
It was to be considered child support for raising this boy.
Bai Mei also said she was willing to give Jiang Yinzhu another son.
As long as Jiang Yinzhu forgave her this once, she would listen to him on everything in the house from now on.
Being an older husband with a young wife, Jiang Yinzhu usually spoiled her very much.
This was the first time he had ever seen Bai Mei act so submissively in front of him.
Just thinking of this made Jiang Yinzhu even more furious.
He grabbed a kitchen knife from the kitchen, threatening to go settle the score with Xiang Tao.
Bai Mei was scared silly and hurried out to call for help.
By the time Su Lang arrived, Jiang Yinzhu had already reached the downstairs of Xiang Tao's building with the knife in hand.
The iron gate at the bottom of the family residential building was closed.
No one dared to open it, and no one dared to approach to persuade him.
Jiang Yinzhu's eyes were bloodshot, panting heavily, continuously roaring for someone to open the door.
"Xiang Tao, don't hide in the house like a coward! If you have the guts to be a bastard father, then have the guts to get the hell out here!"
Xiang Tao lived on the second floor.
There was not a single sound coming from inside.
Even the curtains were drawn tight.
Jiang Yinzhu kicked the iron gate again, "You had the balls to do it, but no balls to admit it, right?! I helped you raise your son for years, you must be secretly laughing your ass off in there, aren't you?!"
Families upstairs and downstairs all peeked out to watch.
It was the first day of the Lunar New Year, exactly the most idle time of the year.
With such a huge spectacle, who wouldn't want to take a few more looks?
Since Jiang Yinzhu was holding a knife, these people didn't dare to get close.
Some leaned on their windowsills to watch, while others only dared to stand far away at the alley entrance, whispering to each other and pointing in this direction.
"What happened to Director Jiang? Why is he making such a scene?"
"Didn't you hear? His youngest son belongs to Deputy Director Xiang!"
"Tsk tsk tsk... Aren't Deputy Director Xiang and Director Jiang on pretty good terms?"
"You can know a person's face but not their heart. Just calculate the age of Director Jiang's youngest son."
"..."
The more these onlookers gossiped, the more lively it got. Hearing these discussions, the muscles on Jiang Yinzhu's face twitched.
He threw caution to the wind!
He raised the knife, pointed it at the second-floor window, and cursed loudly: "Xiang Tao! Get the hell out here! Don't think you can hide from this. Today, one of us is going to end up lying on the ground!"
There was still no movement upstairs.
Xiang Tao's family huddled in their home, scared half to death.
Jiang Yinzhu kicked the iron gate again.
He spat out some filthy curses.
Su Lang squeezed through the crowd in a few strides. Taking advantage of Jiang Yinzhu's inattention, his left hand firmly grasped the hand holding the knife, twisting it outward, while his right leg swept over, his knee pressing into the back of Jiang Yinzhu's knee.
Jiang Yinzhu lost his balance and fell forward.
Su Lang smoothly pinned him to the ground, pressing his knee against his lower back, and snatched the knife from his hand with his left hand.
"You...!"
Jiang Yinzhu lay on the ground, his face pressed against the cold snow.
He instinctively wanted to curse, but turning his head and seeing Su Lang, he swallowed his words immediately.
Su Lang kicked the knife far away.
He sternly asked Jiang Yinzhu, "Are you sober yet?!"
Jiang Yinzhu did not answer.
His shoulders began to tremble, his face pressed against the ground, snot and tears flowing out together.
"I let down Su Jia, let down Chengzhou... I'm not human!"
Su Lang frowned, feeling somewhat disgusted.
In his eyes, this kind of cheap apology was utterly worthless.
Jiang Yinzhu was still howling, constantly yelling about how Bai Mei had cuckolded him, how she had raised a bastard for someone else, and so on.
At the same time, he kept apologizing to Su Jia and Chengzhou, saying how deeply he regretted it.
Seeing him in this state, Su Lang knew he no longer had the ability to do anything stupid.
So he released him, stood up, and shook his hands.
Jiang Yinzhu also scrambled up from the ground.
Who knows what he was thinking, but he still treated Su Lang as his brother-in-law, reaching out to hug him and pour out his grievances.
Su Lang quickly dodged to the side and, with quick reflexes, pulled his second brother, who was following behind him, forward.
Su Jue: "???"
This wretched younger brother!
Before Su Jue could react, Jiang Yinzhu was already hugging him and crying.
Su Jue pushed him away in disgust.
In the crowd of onlookers, someone couldn't help but laugh.
Then they were tugged by the sleeve by someone next to them and held it back in.
Seeing Jiang Yinzhu acting so incredibly moved, Su Jue frowned and said coldly, "Don't think we came here for you. It's none of our business whether you live or die, but don't drag Chengzhou down with you."
Jiang Yinzhu was stunned and finally came to his senses.
"Then, then I just raised a son for someone else for three years for nothing... and we just let it go?"
"Otherwise? If you really can't get over it, can you just go die by yourself?"
Lin Zhilan caught up, her temper flaring upon hearing this.
A man in his forties, and the moment something happens, all he knows is to shout and kill.
If he wanted to die, he should go find a quiet place.
Don't affect the kids!
Jiang Yinzhu was rendered speechless by the retort, his eyes just happening to glance at Bai Mei hiding in the corner.
He opened his mouth, "I! I want to divorce you!"
Bai Mei was also terrified of him.
She didn't dare to live with a madman like this either.
What if he couldn't think straight one day and stabbed her?
"Fine... I'll divorce."
The factory leaders also arrived at this time.
Nowadays, relations between men and women were strictly monitored. Xiang Tao was suspended pending investigation, and Bai Mei's job was temporarily gone too.
The factory leaders kept comforting Jiang Yinzhu.
Terrified that he would do something stupid again.
Everything was a mess, and the planned New Year greetings were canceled.
Su Lang and Su Jue communicated briefly with the factory leaders, then took their wives and children home.
Su Bingcheng and Xu Yueyun still didn't know about this.
Everyone was afraid to tell Xu Yueyun directly.
Instead, they first communicated the matter to Su Bingcheng.
Lin Zhilan said straightforwardly: "Dad, why don't we get Jiang Yinzhu transferred away too? If he stays in the capital, I'm worried he'll do something stupid again when he runs into Xiang Tao and Bai Mei in the future."
"I'll go make the contact."
Su Lang immediately went to make a phone call.
Su Bingcheng said, "We haven't even told your Uncle Jiang yet."
"Su Lang, you go make the call," Lin Zhilan said. "I'll go talk to Uncle Jiang. As long as he values Chengzhou, he'll agree to this."
Keeping Jiang Yinzhu in the capital was a disaster waiting to happen.
If they couldn't kill him, then they had to drive him far away.
When it came to the children, Lin Zhilan refused to accept this kind of preventable accident.
Su Bingcheng sighed, "I'll make the call. Save your limited connections for when you really need them."
As long as the job got done, Lin Zhilan didn't care who made the call.
Deng Jing had seen this sister-in-law many times before.
But today, she was still a bit shocked.
At the very least, Deng Jing didn't have the guts to tell someone to go die to their face, nor did she dare to contradict her father-in-law.
However, if it was her own child who was hurt, Deng Jing felt she might go crazy too.
Thinking about it this way, her sister-in-law truly loved Chengzhou as if he were her own flesh and blood.
