Chapter 100
"Brother Junwen, did I disturb your rest? I need to talk to you about something~"
Ye Junwen shuddered, his voice cold and solemn. "If you have something to say, say it quickly, or I'll hang up."
"No, no, no!" Xiao Jianren said urgently, lowering her voice. "Brother Junwen, my parents have come back from abroad after getting in vitro fertilization. My dad doesn't want me involved in the company anymore, and he wants me to stay home and take care of my mom starting tomorrow. What should I do?"
Ye Junwen rolled his eyes and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Xiao Jianren responded matter-of-factly, "Of course I don't want to stay home and take care of my mom, and I definitely don't want to see that bastard child being born! Otherwise, things will end up developing according to my parents' wishes?"
"We're partners now, and you promised to help me, so hurry up and think of a way to resolve this situation!"
Ye Junwen wanted to reach through the phone and beat up Xiao Jianren. He cursed her silently in his heart, calling her an idiot for needing him to figure out such a simple problem. But considering that he would still need to use her for his own purposes, he could only calm himself down and show her the way.
"It's simple. What do pregnant women fear the most? Of course, it's a miscarriage. If you don't want the child to be born, find a way to induce an abortion."
Xiao Jianren's eyes lit up. Yes, why didn't she think of that?
"Then... how should I do it? Should I just push my mom down the stairs?"
Ye Junwen: ...Is she an idiot? Why did he partner with this imbecile?
Thinking this, Ye Junwen scolded her out loud, "Are you a complete fool? If you do that, won't your parents clearly know you did it on purpose?"
"Then... what should I do?" Xiao Jianren shrunk back, asking weakly.
"Of course, you should choose a method that's undetectable, secretly put some abortion pills in your mom's food. As long as you don't leave any traces, they'll only blame whoever came in contact with the food. Do you understand?" Ye Junwen was exasperated!
Xiao Jianren was almost in awe of Ye Junwen's intelligence, her excited emotions indescribable.
"Then, where can I get abortion pills?"
Ye Junwen rolled his eyes again. "Tomorrow, I'll have someone deliver them to you. They'll leave them in a secluded corner, and you can go find them according to the text message instructions."
Xiao Jianren nodded. "Okay, I understand! Brother Junwen, you're amazing, a real genius!"
Ye Junwen: ...Speechless!
"And remember, you have to be extremely careful, don't let anyone notice, and don't leave any clues. If you're careless and get caught, you definitely can't say it was my idea. That way, I'll still be able to help you achieve our greater goal. You understand what I mean, right?" Ye Junwen's tone was full of threats.
Even a fool like Xiao Jianren understood Ye Junwen's meaning. As long as she didn't implicate him, he would be able to help her gain control of the Xiao family's assets.
"I understand, don't worry, I won't get caught!"
After hanging up, Xiao Jianren even deleted the call record unprompted, excited at the prospect of aborting the child tomorrow.
As long as the child was gone, her mom wouldn't get pregnant again for a while, and her dad would be too busy taking care of her mom to bother with the company. So eventually, she would be the one in charge!
Thinking this, Xiao Jianren's displeasure dissipated. She went to the bathroom, filled the tub, and soaked in a relaxing bath.
After hanging up, Ye Junwen cursed "Idiot!" then immediately made another call, instructing someone to prepare abortion pills to leave near the Xiao family villa the next day.
The next morning, Xiao Jianren was woken up by the sound of a text message notification.
"The stuff is behind the flower bed behind the second trash can on the west side of your villa. There's a white paper package there, and there are no surveillance cameras in that area. Be careful when you go get it."
Xiao Jianren's previously groggy mind immediately became alert after seeing this message. She typed back, "Understood."
After replying, she double-checked the key details in the message, then deleted it entirely.
It was Saturday, and Xiao Wenyao didn't have to go to work. When Xiao Jianren went downstairs, Xiao Wenyao was sitting on the couch reading the day's newspaper.
Seeing his daughter up so early surprised Xiao Wenyao. Recalling what she had said to him last night, he had to believe that she was truly making an effort now.
Feeling reassured, his tone was gentle and calm. "Up so early? Don't you want to sleep in a little longer?"
Xiao Jianren was startled when she first saw her father, having been scolded by him countless times over the past few months. Last night, she had misled and intimidated him again. Adding to that, her plan today was to get the abortion pills—Xiao Jianren was extremely nervous and flustered.
Hearing her father's question, she tensed up but quickly came up with an excuse, having lied so much before.
"Dad, you're up early too. I was just about to go for a morning jog! Dad, would you like to join me?"
Yeah, no way!
As Xiao Jianren hoped, Xiao Wenyao waved his hand dismissively. "Exercising is good for you. Young people should work out more. But I'm getting old, so I'll pass."
Xiao Jianren breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. "Alright then Dad, I'm heading out."
Without waiting for Xiao Wenyao's response, Xiao Jianren left the villa. Once outside, beads of cold sweat trickled down her forehead.
"Phew! It's a good thing I wore casual workout clothes."
Xiao Jianren walked to the second trash can, her heart pounding. She scanned her surroundings, seeing no one around, and pretended to admire the flowers in the flowerbed. Well, it was only dead branches this season. Xiao Jianren fiddled with the branches while scanning the flowerbed with her eyes.
Finally, she spotted a white paper package in the center underneath the flowerbed. Delighted, she didn't immediately bend down to pick it up. Instead, she stood up straight, pretending to stretch while looking around, then bent down under the guise of doing another stretch, quickly snatching up the paper package.
She shoved it into her pocket, her palms sweating. Afterward, she walked away casually, as if nothing had happened.
Since she was out for a morning jog, she would have to wander around for at least half an hour before returning home.
Along the way, Xiao Jianren wasn't idle, mentally calculating when she could secretly slip the pill powder into Jian Hongmei's food.
She really wanted to abort the child immediately, not waiting a moment longer. But for the next couple of days, Xiao Wenyao would definitely stay home to keep Jian Hongmei company, making it impossible to take action.
That little bastard would get to live for two more days. How vexing!
