Chapter 24 - Chapter 24 Yang Mei's Choice

3202, that's Yang Mei's home.

This house was Yang Mei and Li Zhiqiang's matrimonial house, bought outright with the demolition compensation money from both families.

The layout is 145 square meters, much larger than Liang Yuan's place.

Suddenly hearing Ding Yan suggest occupying her home, Yang Mei's first reaction was to disagree.

But then she suddenly remembered that it had already been taken over by that bastard Li Zhiqiang, and she had been driven out.

Can 3202 still be considered her home?

She lowered her head in dejection and didn't speak.

Liang Yuan thought for a moment and said to Yang Mei, "Sister Mei, that house partly belongs to you, you should decide."

Ding Yan and Cai Zhi were surprised, not expecting Liang Yuan to be so respectful of Yang Mei's opinion.

Yang Mei was also moved instantly. Among everyone there, only Liang Yuan cared about her feelings.

She whispered, "Little brother, you know my situation, that house has already been taken over by Li Zhiqiang, I have been driven out, what right do I have to decide its ownership."

Liang Yuan said, "You don't need to worry about that, as long as you agree, we can find a way to take it back."

Yang Mei hesitated.

At this moment, Ding Yan spoke up, "Sister Mei, we're just temporarily staying there, don't worry, once we stabilize, and Liu Erlong can't do anything to us, naturally more rooms will become available."

Cai Zhi also said heavily, "Yang Mei, personally, I don't mind, but my wife and child can't keep staying in the corridor with me. They've not been feeling well these past few days, they might catch a cold, I'm begging you."

Yang Mei hurriedly waved her hand and said, "I... I didn't say I disagreed, it's just... just that I don't have the key to the house, if you want to stay there, you still have to get it from Li Zhiqiang."

"So you agree? As long as you agree, that's enough." Ding Yan said with a smile.

Yang Mei felt helpless. She knew very well that the reason these two were asking her opinion was out of respect for Liang Yuan.

If she were alone, who would care about her opinion?

Seeing Yang Mei nod, Liang Yuan immediately got up and said solemnly, "Alright, then that room across the way it is. You two, leave this to me, you guys go pack up your things."

Cai Zhi hurriedly asked, "Brother, do you need any help?"

Ding Yan also asked, "What's your plan?"

Liang Yuan chuckled, remembering that scoundrel Li Zhiqiang, who once secretly picked his lock, his eyes flashed coldly.

"I have my ways, don't worry."

Cai Zhi and Ding Yan exchanged a look and tacitly refrained from asking more.

They guessed that Liang Yuan would probably need Yang Mei's help.

Cai Zhi immediately got up and said, "Then I'll go pack up my things first and wait for your news."

Ding Yan also said, "I'll head back first too."

Both were efficient people. After saying this, they took the initiative to leave Liang Yuan's home.

After they left, Liang Yuan turned his head to look at Yang Mei.

Yang Mei's face was pale, wanting to say something but not knowing how.

Morally speaking, she really didn't want to team up with Liang Yuan to fight Li Zhiqiang.

No matter how bad Li Zhiqiang was, he was still her husband in name.

If she did this, how would she be different from Pan Jinlian?

But she didn't dare to say it out loud, fearing it would anger Liang Yuan.

However, Liang Yuan's next words moved her to tears.

"Don't worry, I won't let you show your face."

"No matter what, Li Zhiqiang is still your husband. Even though he gave you to me for a piece of bread, I still don't want to put you in a difficult position."

Yang Mei was deeply touched, unable to hold back, she threw herself into his arms, sobbing, "Sister is useless, little brother, it's all sister's fault, sob sob..."

Feeling the softness of her body, Liang Yuan suppressed his desire, squeezed her plump butt, and laughed, "Who said you're useless? We'll find out if you are once I've used you."

Yang Mei shivered instantly, her face turning red, her breathing growing heavier.

Liang Yuan patted her butt, "Wait for me to come back."

With that, he released Yang Mei and walked towards the bedroom.

Soon, he came out carrying a bundle of rope.

Yang Mei couldn't help but ask, "What are you going to do?"

Liang Yuan tied the rope to a steel pipe, then pushed the pipe out through the air conditioner vent, pulling hard on the rope.

The pipe, under force, was securely wedged against the outside wall.

To be extra cautious, he threaded the rope through the coffee table and then the balcony railing, securing it in three places.

Only then did he reply, "The wall behind my living room is connected to the second bedroom of your house. Did you lock the window of that room?"

Yang Mei was slightly surprised, "You... you're going to climb in from the outside? No, that's too dangerous, I locked all the windows."

Liang Yuan looked at her, seeing her worried and panicked expression, he raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled, "You worried about me?"

Yang Mei's face flushed instantly, showing concern, "Otherwise, let me go. I can knock on the door, maybe Li Zhiqiang will open it."

Liang Yuan chuckled, "He's a coward, but not stupid, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

As he spoke, he climbed onto the balcony, "Our two homes are so close, I've long since boarded up my balcony."

"One reason was to prevent someone desperate from climbing down from the roof and sneak into my place, the other was to prevent someone from climbing over from your place."

"Now though, I have to take it down."

He removed the wooden board, and under Yang Mei's worried gaze, climbed out onto the balcony.

With the safety rope and his recently trained strength, Liang Yuan had full confidence he could make it to the other side's Yang Mei's home.

But he remained cautious, after climbing out, he tied a knot at the base of the railing outside, securing the rope.

This way, even if the rope inside the house was cut, he wouldn't fall off.

To cut the outer knot, the other party would have to climb out as well.

This precaution was naturally to guard against Yang Mei.

Although he had judged her to be kind during their time together, he couldn't take the risk.

This time would be a test for Yang Mei.

If she passed, Liang Yuan would trust her fully in the future.

After all, he had stored all the food and supplies in his system's inventory.

Even if Yang Mei betrayed him, she wouldn't gain anything.

Climbing over the railing, Liang Yuan held onto the iron frame of the sealed window, stepping on the outer edge of the balcony, slowly moving towards Yang Mei's house in the dark.

Yang Mei watched his shadow in the darkness, so nervous that she didn't dare to breathe, hurriedly sticking to the window to watch him.

"Little brother, come back, I'll go, I'll trick him into opening the door."

She finally made up her mind, unable to stop herself from softly calling out.

At this moment, Liang Yuan suddenly laughed.

She had indeed passed the test.

In this moment, Liang Yuan truly acknowledged this woman.

He whispered, "Don't make a sound."

Then, under Yang Mei's terrified gaze, Liang Yuan leaped gently.

Thud!

He landed on Yang Mei's air conditioner unit!

This step meant he had fully entered Yang Mei's home.

The rumbling thunder covered the sound of his leap.

Lying next to the air conditioner, Liang Yuan listened for any movement inside the house.

The rain, thunder, and water noises mixed together, there seemed to be no sound inside the house.

Liang Yuan reached into the air conditioner unit and pulled at the vent window slightly.

It opened easily.

He crouched and slipped in through the vent window.

After waiting for a moment, there was still no sound inside, he quietly pushed open the balcony door, tiptoeing into the balcony.
