Ruomei couldn't help but ask to investigate Jiang Ruiling too. Because of Jiang Ruiling's cold behavior towards her, Ruomei had to face embarrassing situations many times. Many socialites laughed at her in the back for failing to get her favor in the Jiang family.

And now that same Jiang Ruiling was acting so good to Lihua. Why?

So she resented her too.

Ruomei said, "Just give me anything that I could use to my advantage."

She cut the call.

"This time I have to do something that will make me gain Old Madam's favor again. Damn it! Just one loss and she already hates me so much! That old hag will throw me out if this goes on."

Ruomei was extremely frustrated.

She worked so hard to impress the Old Madam and she was successful too. But just one loss ruined everything for her. She didn't expect that Old Madam would be so quick to discard her. Both Shi Zhen and Old Madam ignored her and left her alone.

Ruomei slowly sat on the bed.

Just one incident was enough to make her fall from Old Madam's grace. She wondered how difficult her life would be? She wasn't allowed to make any mistake and that feeling brought her on edge as if a knife was hanging on her neck.

Just one chance and I will make everything back to normal…

Her phone buzzed again and see quickly picked it.

"Did you get anything?"

"I didn't get anything about Jiang Lixue," her spy told her. "I don't know why but it was impossible to dig anything about her."

Ruomei frowned.

"Impossible?"

"Yes."

She bit her lip.

Damn…

"But on the other hand, I have some interesting news regarding Jiang Ruiling."

Ruomei straightened up. "Tell me."

She heard her spy talking and by the end, her eyes widened in utter shock. "What!? Are you sure this is true? I don't want to be in any trouble if this turns out to be false!"

"Two hundred percent. I had to do a lot of digging because Jiang Ruiling was being very careful about this. But she finally slipped in the shopping mall. It was difficult to get that information and I expect high reward…"

Ruomei smiled. "Are you kidding me? Name your price and I will give you whatever you ask for."

"Glad to hear that."

Ruomei jumped on her feet and was almost about to run to the Old Madam to break this news to her, but she stopped in her steps.

"I shouldn't be too hasty...If it is indeed true then why would she agree to this engagement?"

That didn't sit well with her.

"A woman like Jiang Ruiling is not easy. She must be definitely planning something."

She smiled.

"Let's see what you have up your sleeve, Jiang Ruiling."

At the Fu house, Fu Renshu quickly came down to leave for his work. At the dining table, he asked the maid, "What is she doing?"

It was understood that he was talking about Meng Ya who had been imprisoned in the house.

The maid coughed. "Not well, Sir. We took breakfast to Madam, but she refused to eat anything. She is insisting to leave the house but…"

Fu Renshu coldly said, "Don't entertain any such request. She will stay here until I want her to."

The maid widened her eyes.

To her it looked as if Fu Renshu was possessively claiming his woman. This was the first time that not only he brought a woman into his house but also acted as a dominating tyrant.

He thought for a moment and he quickly headed back upstairs. He stood in front of the room where Meng Ya was locked.

Fu Renshu slowly opened the door and stepped in. He narrowed his eyes when he didn't see her on the bed.

His gaze shifted to the open window and his eyes widened seeing something hanging out of it. He rushed towards the window and was horrified to see Meng Ya sliding down with the help of a bedsheet that she tied its end on the window sill.

"You!"

Meng Ya stiffened and looked up in shock.

"Are you crazy? What the hell are you doing climbing down from this high of a floor! Do you want to die!?" Fu Renshu yelled.

Meng Ya glared at him. "Dying is still better than staying here like a criminal! And I haven't done anything wrong! I am only fighting for my friend's justice and this is what I get!"

Fu Renshu gritted his teeth. She was at an extremely dangerous height. One slip and she would tumble down and surely break a bone or two.

"Hold my hand!"

Fu Renshu extended his arm, but she looked away. "I won't!"

"Stop swinging like a chimpanzee you moron!"

Meng Ya was stupefied. "How dare you call such a beautiful woman like me a chimpanzee and moron!"

"That's because you are one, you fool!"

"Now you called me a fool!"

"Shut up and give me your hand!"

"No! This is my ticket to escape! I will run away from here and save Lihua from your evil Boss's clutches!"

His gaze darkened.

Does she think that a movie is going on where she is a damn hero!?

A strong gust of wind passed by, making Meng Ya gasp. "Ah!"

The wind swung the curtain sharply and she felt as if she would fall any moment.

"Meng Ya!" Fu Renshu felt as if his heart came to his throat. She was close to falling. But she somehow remained clutched on it with her dear life.

Damn this hooligan is making me do acrobatics! She cursed.

Fu Renshu exclaimed in frustration and hurriedly rushed out of the room. The maid was shocked to see him running out of the house as if something was on fire.

Meng Ya looked down and gulped in fear. The ground was still too far and she could hardly keep hanging on to the curtain.

Lihua, I hope you reward me handsomely for my bravery when I meet you again! She sobbed.

She slowly slipped down until another strong gust of wind knocked her balance off. She lost her grasp from the curtain and felt herself in the air.

"Ahh!"
