He's Actually A Sexy Girl? I Erected!-Chapter 411 - : Like mother, like daughter _1
Chapter 411: Like mother, like daughter _1
Shi Lin had gone from initial disdain to panic, and now to fear.
She thought all those things she did were done in utmost secrecy, that no one but herself knew about them.
Yet Tang Feng just happened to know, and he understood every single detail clearly.
This was terrifying upon closer thought.
Could his Physiognomy Skill really be that horrifying?
Could it truly see through what she was thinking?
...
“Mr.… Mr. Tang, I…”
Her face was filled with a plea, hoping that Tang Feng would let her off the hook.
But Tang Feng was coldly indifferent, “Since you’re still harboring luck, then I’ll expose something even more explosive. Last year at a bar, you stole a man’s wallet…”
“I’ll say it, isn’t that enough?”
Finally breaking down, Shi Lin turned towards Shi Jingpeng with tears in her eyes, “Uncle, I took the pocket watch, I’m sorry, I really am sorry…”
Suppressing his inner rage, Shi Jingpeng asked, “Then why didn’t you admit it when I asked earlier?”
While wiping her tears, Shi Lin explained, “I was afraid Uncle would blame me, so… I didn’t dare to admit it.”
“Where is the pocket watch now? Is it damaged?” That was Shi Jingpeng’s most pressing concern.
Shi Lin glanced at Tang Feng, bit her lower lip, and eventually pulled out the pocket watch from her pocket.
Shi Jingpeng hurriedly snatched the watch and examined it closely.
Indeed, it was the very one he had lost, and it was intact.
In his joy, he was also angry as if he had been swindled, glaring at Shi Lin, “Didn’t you say earlier that the pocket watch was broken and thrown away by your brother?”
Shi Lin, somewhat ashamed, lowered her head, “I… I really like this pocket watch, so… so I hoped for the best and made a fake watch on purpose, letting him break it…”
Shi Jingpeng was infuriated, “Just because you like it, you use these means to deceive me? Mr. Tang just said you are cunning, and I didn’t believe it. Now it seems you are truly too cunning. You used to be quite lovable, how could you have become like this?”
“Brother, aren’t you being a bit excessive with your words?”
Wang Jingmei immediately stepped forward to defend her daughter, “The pocket watch has already been returned to you, hasn’t it? Why are you still not satisfied? And to say such hurtful things? Linlin is still your niece after all.”
Shi Jingpeng grew even more incensed, “Precisely because she is my niece am I so angry. She’s still so young and has already done such a thing. If we don’t discipline her strictly now, who knows what else she might do in the future? You, as parents, have really failed. How did you raise such a daughter?”
Wang Jingmei felt humiliated by his scolding and became furious, “How we educate our daughter is our business, you have no right to meddle. It’s just a watch, isn’t it? And it has already been returned. Why can’t you let it go? Aren’t you being petty? Is this how you behave as an uncle? What now? You want to send her to jail?”
Shi Jingpeng, rebuked by her, was fuming with anger.
He was clearly the victim, so why was he now seen as being petty?
Wang Jingmei, feeling it was not enough, turned her fury to Tang Feng, “And you, just because you can play tricks, doesn’t mean we are afraid of you. What you just said has no proof. If you dare to spread rumors and tarnish my daughter’s reputation, see how I’ll deal with you.”
Tang Feng touched his nose, “Like mother, like daughter indeed. I think Mr. Shi’s words just now were very correct. If you continue to spoil your daughter like this, it will only harm her eventually.”
Wang Jingmei was impervious to advice, putting on an authoritative air, “How I teach my daughter is none of your business. Our family is wealthy, forget that she hasn’t broken the law, even if she really did, I could fix it for her.”
“Really? I don’t believe it.”
Tang Feng said with a smile as he pulled out his phone and called Yang Dongxu.
The call was quickly answered, and Yang Dongxu’s robust voice came through, “What’s up? Have you decided to join our Public Affairs Hall?”
Tang Feng rolled his eyes. This guy was still hopeful, huh.
“Not about that. I wanted to inquire, have you finished interrogating Ma Wo?”
“Why do you ask? You’re not one of us from the Public Affairs Hall, you don’t have the right to know the details of a case investigation.”
Yang Dongxu was still very wary, even when dealing with Tang Feng, the thief-catching hero. He maintained a strictly official tone.
Tang Feng glanced at Shi Lin, “I encountered a girl, only seventeen or eighteen years old, who’s also a member of Ma Wo’s gang.”
Wang Jingmei, overhearing the conversation, became furious, “You scoundrel, dare to frame my daughter? Think just because you know people from the Public Affairs Hall, you can falsely accuse the innocent? Who doesn’t have connections?”
Tang Feng let out a cold laugh, “You could ask your daughter, see if I’m speaking the truth.”
Wang Jingmei was stunned, and hurriedly turned to her daughter.
Sure enough, she saw her daughter Shi Lin turn deathly pale, “Mom, I… I don’t want to go to jail, please, save me…”
“Linlin, don’t be afraid, what’s really going on?” Wang Jingmei held her daughter in her arms and urgently asked for details.
It turned out to be the story that Tang Feng had left halfway through earlier.
Shi Lin had been at a bar, saw a man leave his wallet on the counter, and she took the opportunity to steal it.
Actually, she didn’t steal for money, but just for the thrill of it.
Luckily, she picked the wrong target this time; the wallet’s-owner was the leader of a theft gang.
That was the Ma Wo who had been caught by Tang Feng that day.
Under the threat of Ma Wo, Shi Lin joined the theft gang as if possessed by a ghost.

The gang had monthly quotas; members had to hand over a certain sum of money to pass.
Shi Lin hadn’t completed her quota for the month, so out of desperation, she stole her uncle’s pocket watch to sell for money to meet her quota.
After her story, everyone was stunned into silence.
No one had expected that behind these events was a theft syndicate involved.
Shi Jinghe and Wang Jingmei were utterly shocked.
Their daughter was really in big trouble now.
