Cinderella Innocent and Boss Charming - Chapter 510
Chapter 510 I didn’t take anything
When Lan Xiuhe came back, Lin Peizhi told him about the loss.
Lan Xiuhe’s face also changed, looking at her with a tense expression, “Why did Lu Xiaoxian favor taking that ring? She wants to …”
“Don’t worry, the ring wasn’t taken by Lu Xiaoxian,” Lin Peizhi said, “If I’m not wrong, the ring is in Lan Qin’er’s hands, and she’s trying to frame Lu Xiaoxian for it.”
“But why didn’t Qin’er take anything else but that ring? She doesn’t know anything, does she?”
“What could she know, it’s just a coincidence, don’t worry.”
“What was Lu Xiaoxian doing in our room? Is there anything else missing?”
“I’ve checked them all carefully, nothing is missing except for that ring,” Lin Peizhi said, “As for why Lu Xiaoxian entered our room, that’s unknown. Although there’s no rule that says maids aren’t allowed to enter our room, but she’s Kaizer’s maid, and to enter our room for no reason and be so sneaky is a bit suspicious.”
Lan Xiuhe nodded, “What are you going to do?”
“This woman can’t stay in the house until we figure out what’s going on,” Lin Peizhi said, “Recently, Kai Ze’s temperament has changed a lot because of her, so it’s a good time to take advantage of this opportunity to keep them apart for a while, don’t you think?”
“That woman’s influence on Kaizer is too great, beyond our imagination, and that’s all we can do for now.” Lan Xiuhe sighed, “The old man’s eightieth birthday is just around the corner, until then, nothing must go wrong.”
“OK, open the gong and sing at night, just try to cooperate with me.”
“Just be afraid of Kaiser …”
“He can’t be left alone this time.”
“Well, that’s settled.”
When Lan Kai Ze returned home, although everything was calm and quiet, no different from usual. But he was keenly aware of the implication of a mountain rain. When he went upstairs to ask Lu Xiaoxian, the woman laughed and said that he was overthinking it, and that nothing had happened at all.
It wasn’t until the meal was over and he and Lu Xiaoxian were asked to go downstairs that Lan Kaiser realized that his intuition wasn’t wrong. Something was indeed about to happen.
Lin Peizhi didn’t make a big deal out of it, she just gently asked Lu Xiaoxian to hand over the things she took from her room. She would leave this matter alone.
Lu Xiaoxian was so nervous that her hands were clenched with sweat, she still felt that the afternoon was quite smooth, but she didn’t think that all of them were being watched, and now she was finished.
Lan Kaiser had been standing beside her, and when he saw her in this state, he thought she was frightened, so he held her hand and whispered, “Don’t be afraid, I have everything.”
Every time a man said this, Lu Xiaoxian wouldn’t really be afraid, but this time was different, she had really gone into Lin Peizhi’s room, and even though she didn’t really take anything, she took pictures and printed the key mold, did these count?
Lan Qin’er hummed, “You guys, look at the way she’s acting like a thief, that ring must have been stolen by her!”
It turned out that she had lost a ring, Lu Xiaoxian was relieved to hear this instead. With a calm demeanor, she said, “I didn’t take anything.”
“Then what were you doing in your great-aunt’s room?”
Lu Xiaoxian couldn’t answer and lowered his head in silence.
Instead, Lan Kaize asked Lan Qin’er, “Which eye did you see Xiao Xian enter the room?”
Lan Qin’er proudly pulled out the photo and raised it to him, “The evidence is overwhelming, what else do you want to say?”
When Lan Kai Ze looked at it, it was really a picture of Lu Xiaoxian coming out of Lin Peizhi’s room, he froze for a moment, and he couldn’t figure out what Lu Xiaoxian was doing in Lin Peizhi’s room.
Lu Xiaoxian’s afterglow glanced at the photo and suddenly brightened up, she understood, it must have been Lan Qin’er who saw her coming out of Lin Peizhi’s room, secretly took the photo, and then stole a piece of jewelry herself to falsely accuse her.
“Speak up, are you dumb?” Lan Qin’er raised her eyebrows triumphantly, “Since you said you didn’t steal anything, what were you doing in Great Auntie’s room?”
“I,” said Lu Xiaoxian, “I went the wrong way.”
Lan Qin’er laughed, “You can’t even tell a lie, the floors are different, the orientation is different, how could you go wrong? Nonsense! It’s better to hand over the stuff. Big Auntie said, hand it over and you’ll be spared.”
“Xian’er,” Lan Kai Ze whispered, “Do you have something difficult to tell me? Or if you’re in trouble, tell me and I’ll fix it.”
Although he had lowered his voice when he spoke, Lin Peizhi and Lan Xiuhe both heard him, and both of them exchanged quick glances, their faces a little grave. Scrutinizing gazes swept across the faces of Lan Kaize and Lu Xiaoxian.
Lu Xiaoxian was silent, she was not good at lying in the first place, what she said was ridiculous even to herself, Lan Kaize would not believe it even more, the third floor and the second floor even had a different door color! She went in and out of Lan Kaiser’s room every day, she could find it with her eyes closed, so how could she get it wrong?
Being in a stalemate, Lan Xiuhe suddenly said, “I think it’s better to give Lu Xiaoxian a little time to think about it, it’s not a solution to force her like this, let’s call it a day, Lu Xiaoxian, I hope that after you think about it clearly, you’ll hand it over as soon as you can, and if it really isn’t you, then you’ll give us all a reasonable explanation, Kaize, you don’t have any problem with dad doing this, do you?”
Kaiser Blue shook his head, thinking that his parents were being reasonable on this one.
Since there was no more trial, he led the woman back to her room, there were some things he wanted to ask her alone.
Seeing such a result, Lan Qin’er called out in dissatisfaction, “Great Aunt, how can we just let it go? If the maid doesn’t tell the truth, let’s beat her until she does, or else that bunch of lowlifes will follow her example, and the world won’t be in chaos!”
Alenda glared at her without a good look, “What’s the point of fighting, haven’t you been beaten enough? That’s your big brother’s woman.”
“Hmph, a prince who breaks the law is still guilty of the same crime as the common people,” Lan Qin’er sneered, “How old is she?”
“I don’t think Lu Xiaoxian is that kind of person,” Zeng Hong interjected, “Usually she doesn’t say anything, she doesn’t pick a fight, and she’s willing to work hard, so she doesn’t look like a shallow-eyed person.”
“Third Auntie, you don’t know what you’re getting into!” Lan Qin’er said, “The more you look at the one who doesn’t say anything, the more you are in a belly full of bad water, just watch, I’m sure that ring was stolen by her! If you don’t believe me, go and search.”
Zeng Hong had never had a good feeling about this niece, and her expression was faint, “She’s staying in Kai Ze’s room now, so go search.” Not to mention Lan Qin’er, even Lan Xiuhe and Lin Peizhi didn’t dare to go to their son’s room to search for something.
Unexpectedly, Lan Qin’er said, “Doesn’t she have her own room? Let’s go and search her room first.”
Lin Peizhi long ago did not have the heart to sing this play any longer, but could not resist Lan Qin’er’s repeated instigation to grind mushrooms, so he could only say, “OK, then go, let Uncle Hua send someone to search.”
When the group arrived at Lu Xiaoxian’s hut, everyone stood outside and only two maids went in to search, one of them being Alys.
Lin Peizhi was aware of Lan Qin’er’s mind, and the reason why she was willing to cooperate with her in her act was also because she wanted to find a proper reason to drive Lu Xiaoxian away.
Unsurprisingly, it didn’t take long for Alys to hold up a ring and call out, “I found it, I found it! This is the ring!” She rushed over to show Lin Peizhi, “First Mistress, is it this one?”
Lin Peizhi secretly cursed in her heart: stupid. Without even looking at it, she directly held it in her hand and clutched it, “That’s it, okay, things are found, let’s each disperse.”
Lan Qin’er didn’t expect that after the things were found, Lin Peizhi was this kind of attitude, and was surprised, “Auntie, after the things were found, you should have to tie up Lu Xiaoxian and hand her over to the police! Otherwise, it’s the imposition of the family law of flogging, you can’t just let it go, right?”
“I’ll take care of the rest, so don’t worry about it.” Lin Peizhi waved her hand, “All disperse, do what you need to do. This matter will end here, if I hear anyone chewing the cud again, I’ll be impolite to him!”
The servants all nodded coyly, Lan Qin’er rolled her eyes and huffed, and Zeng Hong and Alenda followed.
When Lin Peizhi returned to her room, she impatiently said to Lan Xiuhe, “It seems that Lu Xiaoxian really does have a problem, did you hear what Kaize called her?”
“I heard that,” Lan Xiuhe blazed his pipe, his brow slightly furrowed, “At first I was shocked too, but when I came back and thought about it carefully, I felt that it wasn’t that we were overthinking it, there is the word Xian in her name, and it’s not wrong for Kaiser to call it something intimate when he likes her.”
Lin Peizhi took the ring out and scrutinized it under the lamp, “If she really is that Xian’er, she won’t not recognize this ring, should we try it.”
Lan Xiuhe shook his head, “When I asked you to throw the ring away, you refused to do so, now it’s good, you’ve caused trouble, what’s the point of taking it out, either hurry up and throw it away, or hide it, it’s not good to show it to your family.”
“I know,” Lin Peizhi sighed, “Xiuhe, these days, Kaizer’s mood is a bit unstable, just in case, are we …”
Lan Xiuhe’s face was grave, “When he was in a coma, his mouth kept calling Xian’er, Xian’er, no matter if Lu Xiaoxian is that Xian’er or not, we can’t take it lightly, things shouldn’t be delayed, take action tonight, and send Lu Xiaoxian away early tomorrow morning.”
“Since you’re worried, why don’t you simply …” Lin Peizhi made a neck wiping motion.
“Things are still unclear, it’s too early to do this,” Lan Xiuhe thought a little deeper, “I can see that Lu Xiaoxian can hold Kaiser at bay, as long as we use her well, she’s a good pawn, and in the future, in the event that Kaiser flips out on us, she’ll still come in handy. ”
“You’re right too.” Lin Peizhi closed her eyes and took a deep breath, “Xiuhe, I don’t know why, but I’m always a little scared.”
“It’s okay, we have survived the most difficult times, don’t be afraid, and don’t disorganize yourself.” Lan Xiuhe held his wife’s hand, “The two of us have to work together, as long as Kaiser gets the inheritance, it’s a great success, at that time, who are we afraid of?”
Lin Peizhi leaned on her husband’s shoulder and looked at the two clasped hands, her gaze condensing, “Right, as long as the inheritance is in hand, who are we afraid of?”
