SWNOVELS Chapter 20 - Stealing
Su Ming paid no attention to the landlord.
After all, with his newfound billionaire status, he owned land valued at ten billion.
Frankly, such individuals were no longer in a position to bother him.
Retreating to his bedroom, Su Ming retrieved his graduation and degree certificates from beneath a box.
He fetched a snakeskin bag from under his bed and packed it with essentials.
Glancing around, he realized there was nothing else he wanted to bring. contemporary romance
“I've decided not to continue renting here. I'll settle any outstanding payments. Farewell.”
With a subtle smile, Su Ming departed downstairs, clutching the snakeskin bag.
The landlord was taken aback by Su Ming's behavior.
She epitomized someone who preyed on the vulnerable but cowered before the dominant.
While her husband was a forceful man, he was notorious for his extramarital escapades.
Despite her awareness of his infidelity, she always welcomed him home with a cheerful demeanor.
That very morning, her husband withdrew a considerable sum for his leisure pursuits. Though she understood his intentions, she felt powerless to intervene.
Feeling aggrieved, the landlord had intended to find a reason to berate Su Ming during rent collection that day.
She had hoped Su Ming would reimburse her for a household item, but he declined.
Over the past three years, Su Ming was the sole occupant, leading the landlord to believe he must be the one responsible for any damages.
The landlord held a housing contract with specific stipulations outlined.
Once she received the payment from Su Ming, she intended to evict him.
Her plan was to use Su Ming's payment for property renovations and upgrading to better second-hand appliances.
This would allow her to hike up the rent.
However, Su Ming's actions took her completely by surprise.
Unlike previous occasions, after her call, Su Ming didn't hurry back. He kept her waiting for over four hours.
Upon his return, he seemed indifferent to her.
Most notably, when she demanded compensation, Su Ming promptly transferred the funds to her.
Despite receiving the money, she felt somewhat disgruntled.
Fuming, the landlord abruptly shut the door and stormed downstairs.
She was determined to confront and rebuke Su Ming.
Reaching the ground floor, she spotted Su Ming near a luxury vehicle, holding a snakeskin bag and conversing with two patrol officers.
Laughing boisterously, the landlord remarked, “Has Su Ming been caught pilfering from the police? No wonder he was keen on moving out. Guess he had prison in mind.”
With a sneer, the landlord watched the scene, her gaze filled with contempt for Su Ming.
That luxurious vehicle was easily worth several million yuan.
It was audacious of Su Ming to even think of stealing such a pricey car, likely landing him a lengthy jail term.
She pondered whose car it might be. In this old neighborhood, she was familiar with most, but was certain few could afford such a lavish vehicle.
Perhaps someone had just parked it there temporarily.
Regardless, she believed Su Ming was out of luck. Of all the vehicles available, he chose a luxury one worth over three million yuan, and now he was caught by the police.
