Watching them walk out, I immediately installed surveillance cameras in the house. That wretched Ding Min often takes advantage of my absence to steal my things. A few days ago, she stole two of my bags, a necklace, and an emerald ring. All these items were gifts from Ding Jian, worth over a hundred thousand. I couldn't let her get away with it.
Days passed without any sign of her. Then one day, I finally witnessed what I had been waiting for. Ding Min quietly entered my room, took numerous photos of my bags and accessories, and then posted them for sale on a second-hand platform. I was left dumbfounded; this woman was utterly shameless.
What shocked me even more was that she had joined a group where she cried poverty every day, claiming her mother had cancer and needed a substantial amount for treatment, hoping that relatives and friends would lend a helping hand. Many relatives lent her money. After collecting these funds, she sent all of it as tips to some male streamer online. No wonder she was always complaining about being broke; it all made sense now. Truly devoted.
With my mother-in-law's birthday celebration approaching, I planned to seize this opportunity to completely tear off the hypocritical masks worn by this mother-daughter duo. I told my mother-in-law that we should hold a birthday banquet: first, to collect some cash gifts to alleviate our financial issues at home; second, to invite relatives and friends so that everyone would know about her supposed illness. Once she was gone...
No one would gossip about it.
When her mother-in-law heard this, she found it reasonable and immediately agreed.
Ding Min felt a bit tempted upon hearing this. She thought to herself that if she could borrow a few hundred thousand, that would be fantastic. It would be just enough to give the Male Streamer a generous tip. She could always say the money was for her mother's medical treatment—who could say anything against that?
Soon, the day of the birthday banquet arrived. Early in the morning, Ding Min was restless. She told me that a friend was coming and asked me to keep an eye on her mother-in-law.
I jokingly asked her, "What kind of friend?"
"Is it a guy?"
Ding Min's cheeks flushed, and she feigned calmness as she replied, "No, don’t say nonsense."
"Then why are you so nervous?"
"Mom has been in a bad mood lately; don’t upset her."
After saying this, she made an excuse about having a headache and went back home.
Of course, I knew she was going back to meet the Male Streamer; I just didn’t call her out on it. I understood that soon enough, she would be completely enchanted by him and wouldn’t have time to think about her mother-in-law at all. With just a little nudge from me, she would forget everything.
Sure enough, not long after breakfast, a taxi pulled up outside. A man in a pink suit with his hair heavily gelled walked in. As soon as he entered, he began to pose and preen, raising his eyebrows and pouting his lips.
The moment Ding Min saw him, she completely forgot about her mother-in-law. The appearance of the Male Streamer had captivated her entirely. She kept giving me glances, signaling me to be more accommodating.
A moment later, I gave the Male Streamer a look, hoping he would behave himself. I couldn't help but feel a mix of amusement and exasperation. Surprisingly, the Male Streamer was more normal than I had expected. When he noticed my mother-in-law coughing a bit, he even brought her a gift. Seeing this put my mind at ease. As long as the Male Streamer didn’t cause any trouble, everything would be manageable.
“Mom, why don’t you and Ding Jian greet everyone? I’m a bit worried about Ding Min, so I’ll head home for a bit,” I said.
Some relatives who had eaten quickly stood up, saying they wanted to go back with us. In the end, even my mother-in-law and Ding Jian couldn’t rest easy, urging the relatives to come along.
But when we opened the door, the scene before us left everyone speechless.
