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

Chapter 176

Peng Li's face suddenly changed. Though she didn't like this daughter, she still wanted her to show complete respect. Seeing her mocking expression and half-finished sentences, she couldn't help but burst out, "What are you trying to say!"

Wu Xingqing sneered, "I heard that you dislike me, your own daughter, because you had a dream that I would cause your downfall and imprisonment."

Peng Li froze, and Wu Xingqing continued with a laugh, "Now who's causing your downfall and imprisonment? Is it me? No! It's your precious godson! Congratulations, your dream came true in a different way."

The police officer nearby almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

Peng Li's expression twisted as she tried to raise her hand to strike Wu Xingqing, but Wu Xingqing caught her wrist and said, "You gave up your custody rights, so you have no right to discipline me!"

After saying this, Wu Xingqing released Peng Li's hand and walked away, ignoring her mother's devastated expression.

As she opened the door, Sun Man happened to be passing by. She was there to handle matters related to the fraud case, with Luo Fei standing beside her, about to escort her in.

Wu Xingqing didn't know them, so naturally wouldn't greet them. As she was about to leave, she sensed movement behind her. Looking back, she saw Peng Li gesturing wildly at Sun Man.

"It's all because of you, you worthless woman! If it weren't for you, things wouldn't have gotten to this point! It's all your fault! You're actually the bad one here. Tell me, did you set this up to frame him?"

Luo Fei openly rolled his eyes, surprising Wu Xingqing who was facing him. She had assumed domestic police officers would be more serious, so seeing one so... casual was unexpected. Strangely, she felt she had seen him somewhere before and found him somewhat familiar.

Hearing Peng Li's roaring, Sun Man finally spoke coldly, "Is Ms. Peng still living in her own fantasy? They found drugs on Lang Zhe, how can you blame that on me? Oh, and I just remembered something."

Sun Man suddenly frowned mysteriously and said, "You had a bad impression of me because you suspected I stole your necklace."

Peng Li was stunned that Sun Man dared to bring this up publicly.

"Actually, your necklace really did go missing back then, but if it was truly stolen, Lang Zhe must have been the thief."

"What! Are you crazy! He's my godson!"

Sun Man smiled, "So what? He was once my boyfriend too, yet he still secretly filmed me for fraud. I only know that during that time, he had already started paying off gambling debts. Stealing your jewelry... yes, that string around your neck would have been more than enough to cover his debts."

Everyone around looked at the pearl necklace on Peng Li's neck.

Peng Li suddenly seemed uncomfortable, touching her necklace nervously, "Stop trying to frame him. If he stole it, where could he have hidden it?"

Sun Man replied, "That's why I didn't suspect him at first, thinking you must have been mistaken. But now I see he could have easily hidden these pearls using the same method he used to hide drugs."

Practice makes perfect, otherwise, he wouldn't have thought of using this method for transport so smoothly.

If he hadn't been discovered and Peng Li hadn't threatened to call the police, he wouldn't have taken it out. Now Sun Man was just grateful for her general disinterest in jewelry, which meant she had never touched that necklace.

Otherwise, she would have been utterly disgusted now.

Peng Li was stunned, and everyone present, including Luo Fei, stepped back with awkward expressions.

"He could fit such a large pearl necklace in there? Then his drug transport amount was actually quite conservative," Luo Fei couldn't help saying. "I wonder if the proctologist got everything out."

These words hit Peng Li like a thunderbolt, nearly causing her to collapse.

But with her wearing the necklace, no one dared to touch her or help her up. Wu Xingqing had also realized what was being implied and turned pale with disgust, naturally unwilling to help. Finally, Peng Li had to steady herself.

When she came to her senses, she frantically tried to pull off the necklace but froze mid-motion. Despite regular maintenance, still...

It was as if a poisonous snake was coiled around her neck - she dared not touch it but couldn't bear having it there. Finally, the overwhelmed Peng Li's eyes rolled back and she fainted.

Medical personnel had to come and carry her away.

This forced Wu Xingqing to follow along, which was quite troublesome.

Luo Fei came out with Wu Xingqing, "You're Ms. Peng's daughter? Are you going with the ambulance?"

"I'll take my own car," Wu Xingqing had no desire to stay with that woman. After saying this, she felt awkward, knowing that to outsiders they were mother and daughter, and her coldness would surely be criticized. She probably expected a lecture from the police officer.

However, Luo Fei didn't interfere and simply arranged for police officers to follow the ambulance.

This caused Wu Xingqing to give Luo Fei another look.

"Qingqing."

Suddenly someone called out to Wu Xingqing. Looking back, she saw a young man, who paused in his steps when he noticed Luo Fei turning around with her, showing a moment of discomfort.

As a police officer, Luo Fei naturally caught the man's strange expression toward him. But he was certain he didn't know this man.

The man quickly recovered and approached, asking with concern, "I just saw auntie being taken away, did something happen?"

"Yes, she fainted. We're going to the hospital," Wu Xingqing said flatly.

The man put his arm around Wu Xingqing's shoulders, "Let's go then."

They were clearly in a relationship.

Wu Xingqing nodded to Luo Fei in acknowledgment, and the man also smiled and nodded at him, though his final glance carried a meaningful smile.

Luo Fei frowned slightly, feeling something odd about the situation. However, the station was busy, and he had no time to dwell on it, with a pile of celebrity drug use announcements still needing to be handled.

After compiling and releasing the list of all involved celebrities, Weibo's servers crashed within a minute.

Even other apps that mainly discussed celebrity gossip subsequently crashed.

Seeing the Qin family frantically refreshing their pages gave a good idea of what other netizens were doing.

"Wow, someone quick-fingered shared screenshots to our group. My classmates' group is crying so hard! Several of their favorites have fallen," Qin Rong said excitedly.

Qin Yan also said in surprise, "Our hospital work group is also exploding with discussion."

Qin's Father said, "The Qin Corporation's group is quiet, but some celebrities who collaborated with our products were involved."

Qin's Mom said, "I guess our second son won't be coming home tonight."

Qin Zhao said, "This isn't too troublesome, just release a statement terminating the collaborations."

Ji Feile spoke up, "Sister Pei is also cursing in our studio's small group chat because one of the male actors is the supporting actor in Yu Rouyin's current filming project. All his scenes need to be reshot, delaying the schedule. Fortunately, she successfully signed Sun Man, so she's in a good mood, otherwise her anger would be hard to calm down right now."

Soon, the apps recovered, and everyone rushed back to surf the internet.

The public square was filled with homeless fans, a scene of complete devastation.

But before they could fully take in the drama, they heard Ji Fei curse.

[Damn, why am I still trending number one!]

The Qin family: What? Is this true? Quick, let's check!
