After Transmigrating as a Tycoon’s Wife, My Thoughts Are Heard by the Whole Family

Ji Fei suddenly came out with this statement, instantly infuriating Peng Li.

It was clear she was fiercely protective of her godson.

"What nonsense are you spouting? How could it possibly be my godson?"

Ji Fei pouted, [It is your godson, it is! It is!]

The Qin family was amused. As a result, Peng Li thought they were laughing at her and angrily retorted, "Don't tell me you also suspect my godson! If my godson wanted anything, wouldn't I give it to him? Why would he need to steal?"

[Such blind doting, but he wouldn't dare ask you. Once he did, it would let Teacher Lu know about his gambling. He wouldn't dare expose that.]

"Oh, Peng Li, don't get upset. Even the police treat everyone as a suspect when investigating a case. My little Fei doesn't know your godson, so her guess is quite reasonable. Do you have any evidence that Lang Zhe has never been to your treasure room?" Qin's Mom said leisurely.

Qin's Mom's words left Peng Li speechless.

After all, she did bring Sun Man and Lang Zhe to the room together at that time, and it could be said that her main attention was on Sun Man, wanting to show off her power as a godmother to Sun Man.

As for Lang Zhe... she couldn't really remember what he was doing at the time.

Peng Li was momentarily dazed, but quickly seemed to recall something and perked up, "Fine, if you don't believe me, let's talk facts. At that time, only Sun Man was carrying a bag and wearing clothes that could easily hide things, but Lang Zhe was only wearing a simple basketball outfit. How could he steal my necklace in front of everyone?"

Hearing this, the Qin family carefully imagined the scene. Such a long pearl necklace, no matter where it was hidden, should create a noticeable bulge.

After the necklace went missing, everyone was so anxious to find it, and none of them were blind. If it was really on Lang Zhe, it should have been quite easy to spot.

Thinking about this, the Qin family couldn't help but wonder how the case could be solved without anyone's involvement except Ji Fei.

Fortunately, Ji Fei was also quite curious.

[She's quite good at arguing. Let me check how he actually stole it. Wait!]

Ji Fei's inner voice suddenly rose, startling the Qin family.

[Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god! Heavens!]

The Qin family: What? What? What? Why the sudden exclamation?

Everyone furtively glanced at Ji Fei, only to see her eyes fixed intently on Peng Li's necklace, her pupils seeming to tremble, then looking at Peng Li's hands, the hands that habitually caressed the pearls, and then at the teacup Peng Li had held.

This series of glances nearly killed the Qin family with curiosity.

They only heard Ji Fei's inner voice cry out in a tone of having narrowly escaped disaster: [So lucky! Fortunately, Peng Li was arrogant enough not to think about shaking hands when she came in, otherwise our whole family's hands would have been in trouble.]

The Qin family: Huh?

[Who would have thought that such an expensive pearl necklace would have been in that kind of place.]

The Qin family: Why do we have a bad feeling about this? What kind of place exactly?

[Lang Zhe can't possibly be gay, can he? Is he that unfathomable?]

The slower-reacting Qin family members: ... Wait... What?!

They didn't seem to have enough mental preparation to process these keywords and come to a conclusion.

The quick-reacting Qin family members: !!!!

No... All of them? Each of those pearls is as big as a one-yuan coin, and there are... twenty or thirty of them, right? Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!

[Oh, that scared me to death. I knew it couldn't be possible.]

Everyone immediately let out a sigh of relief, almost choked by this wild speculation. How could a man do such a thing just to steal a necklace? Ji Fei must have seen it wrong.

[So many, it's impossible to stuff them all in there. The remaining part was tied to his body, like wearing a G-string. That's why it wasn't visible... Ah, my brain, stop imagining! I didn't think about that scene, I'm just an innocent bystander! Disappear, disappear!]

The Qin family: ... It's too late. Can they control the speed of their brains? And the brain doesn't understand negatives. If you tell it not to think about something, it will definitely think about it.

Ah, disappear, disappear quickly!

Suddenly, they remembered Peng Li saying earlier that when the pearl necklace was found, it was still warm.

Probably not just warm...

Everyone suddenly turned to look at the pearl necklace on Peng Li's neck.

Was it psychological, or a lighting effect? Did those pearls have a slightly yellowish glow?

Seeing the suddenly colorful expressions on everyone's faces, as if they had received some kind of shock, Peng Li became dissatisfied.

"What do you mean? After what I've said, you still don't believe in Lang Zhe?"

Just like how parents would never believe there could be anything wrong with their own child, Peng Li completely refused to believe it.

The Qin family finally looked at Peng Li with a hint of sympathy in their eyes.

Peng Li became even more confused, especially noticing that they kept glancing at her necklace. She instinctively raised her hand to stroke the necklace.

But she heard the sound of everyone taking a sharp breath.

What's wrong with this family?

[She's still touching it, she's actually still touching it. How tragic~]

The Qin family's eyes became even more pitying.

Especially Qin's Mom, who after all had known her for so many years, really felt some reluctance to believe it.

But there was no way to remind her, they could only mourn for her silently in their hearts.

[Come to think of it, this necklace was originally bought by her ex-husband. The ownership was on her ex-husband's side. During the divorce, she wanted to take away this priceless necklace. Her ex-husband said as long as she didn't fight for custody of their daughter, the necklace would be hers. She agreed without hesitation, tsk tsk tsk...]

The Qin family didn't expect this necklace to have such a hidden story. Their sympathy for Peng Li immediately faded.

"Hey, what do you mean? Why are you looking at me like that?" Peng Li finally felt uneasy under their gaze.

"There are too many ways to hide things. We can't say he couldn't hide it just because he was wearing little," Qin's Mom said flatly.

[Eh? Has Qin's Mom also thought of that method?]

Qin's Mom choked immediately. No, she hadn't!

Qin's Father quickly coughed, "Anyway, we weren't at the scene, so we can't judge."

"You all!" Peng Li was furious.

"In my opinion, since they've already broken up, they're completely unrelated people now. There's no need to cause her trouble anymore," Qin Zhao said impatiently.

"Hmph! They broke up because she must have felt guilty about stealing. But Lang Zhe loves her too much and still wants to be with her. He's been pining for her day and night..."

[Of course he'd be pining day and night. After all, the free sucker who helped him pay off his gambling debts is gone. If he doesn't get her back, how can he continue gambling under Teacher Lu's nose? Unfortunately, all this information is indirectly obtained from others. If I had met Lang Zhe, I would definitely check if he still owes gambling debts now.]
