Chapter 121: She’s Not the Thief

Note: This chapter contains some detailed descriptions of a sexual activity. If you do not want to read it or are under 15 years of age, skip the section between the double lines.

After the police had left, both Zhang Bing and his father had a tacit understanding to not mention anything about the prostitute. However, Zhang Jiefang still felt that things were awkward. He felt sorry for Yang Ming.

Yang Ming felt that the ambiance in the room was off, so he pulled Lan Ling back into his own room

“Yang Ming, I feel that the whole case is strange.” Lan Ling told him once she went back to the room. Do not speak of it, but when this little girl was serious she looked completely different.

“What do you mean?” Yang Ming asked.

“The missing imperial jade was strange. Even though I was a prostitute for only a day, whenever I chatted with the others before, I know that most prostitutes wouldn’t go and search their client’s luggage. Even the greediest prostitute would only take the cash from their client’s wallet. Everyone knows that normal people wouldn’t place their expensive items into their luggage.” Lan Ling analyzed, “Thus, it’s rather bizarre.”

“Do you mean that Uncle Zhang stole from himself?” Yang Ming shook his head. He had suspected Zhang Jiefang a while ago. Even though Zhang Jiefang seemed like a nice person, but the heart to guard others should never be gone [1]. A hundred thousand yuan wasn’t a small amount! Therefore, Yang Ming used his x-ray vision to look through the room and realized there was no trace of the imperial jade. This also meant that it wasn’t Zhang Jiefang who hid the imperial jade away.

“That wasn’t what I meant. I have told you before. I have a sharp intuition. I don’t feel like there was anything wrong with Uncle Zhang.” Lan Ling shook her head.

“However, it’s truly unlucky that we lost that imperial jade. Initially, I wanted to make you some imperial jade jewelry.” Yang Ming smiled as he shook his head.

“Make me some jewelry?” Lan Ling was stunned. Then she remembered that Yang Ming mentioned how he wanted to keep a piece of imperial jade yesterday. It was actually for her! Lan Ling felt a sense of sweetness in her heart. “It’s alright. I am already extremely happy that you have this intention!”

“No worries Lan Ling. Even if we can’t recover the imperial jade, I will get you another one.” Yang Ming felt that this wasn’t something hard at all.

Ordinarily, people would be pretty anxious when they lost their item, especially Yang Ming who lost an imperial jade that was worth 200,000 or even 800,000 yuan. Yet he still felt rather peaceful as he lay down on his bed and continued to study his book,.

Lan Ling continued to study some “live-action movie.” Because there was a variety of programs daily, today’s was Japanese. The main character was a lot more reserved compared to the United States one. But there were still many patterns, and Lan Ling was completely engrossed in it. She would also occasionally ask Yang Ming a few questions, just like a good student who was studying seriously.

=========================== BEGINNING ================================

“Yang Ming, what is that?” Lan Ling pointed at the screen.

“Oh? That is a vibrating egg.” Yang Ming raised his eyebrow and threw a glance at it. Then, he proceeded to read his book.

“Vibrating egg? What’s its use?” Lan Ling asked again.

“Just learn it by watching the TV!” Yang Ming ran out of words. This Lan Ling, is she doing it on purpose?

============================== END ===================================

“Xixi… ” Lan Ling smiled cunningly.

“Lan Ling!” Yang Ming became so aroused that he stared at her. If you don’t want to use it, then don’t use it. Why are you telling me?

“En? My love, you want me?” Lan Ling happily climbed onto the bed to Yang Ming’s side.

Finally, Yang Ming had run out of patience. Or he no longer needed to be patient…

That night, Deputy Director Li who was sent out from the nearest police station made a call to get Zhang Jiefang to the police station. They found Li Moli.

In the interrogation room of the police station, Yang Ming saw Li Moli, a woman who was dressed up rather flirtatiously with heavy makeup. Yang Ming started to doubt Zhang Jiefang’s taste in women. Wasn’t that standard a bit too low?

Li Moli was slightly nervous. Moreover, this was a case about 200,000 yuan. She was just a prostitute. How could she not be nervous?

… “I didn’t take any imperial jade. Is this f**k**g fat guy setting me up?”

Suddenly a voice floated into Yang Ming’s mind. Yang Ming was stunned. When he saw how everyone else didn’t have any reaction, he knew that he had “seen” someone’s thoughts!

This thinking was obviously by Li Moli. Even though Yang Ming wasn’t clear how his special power appeared, he still believed that he had this ability. Since Li Moli was thinking this way, then she would not be the person who had stolen the imperial jade away.

The f****** fat guy in her mind should be Zhang Jiefang.

Of course, Deputy Director Li shook his head apologetically to Zhang Jiefang, “According to our investigation, this Li Moli would basically be completely excluded from suspicion. We had already seen her handbag. Even though on the outside, it may look big, but the actual space in her handbag is rather small. It wasn’t large enough to contain an imperial jade. Moreover, the key thing is if she truly took away the imperial jade, she wouldn’t dare to come back to the same place to sleep again. When we arrived at her home, she was putting on makeup and preparing to go accompany another client at night. This way, it reduced our doubts tremendously. Especially this type of prostitute who belonged to a group, they are rather different from a prostitute who is on her own. As long as you could trace back to the boss who was in charge, you would be able to find them! This type of people wouldn’t steal from others!”

Zhang Jiefang nodded his head disappointedly. He knew that what Deputy Director Li said was true.

“The case had already been reported to other stations. Tomorrow there would be others from the other stations who would be here. Boss Zhang, they would want to understand a few situations from you. My advice to you is to not move anything in the hotel room, especially your luggage.” Deputy Director Li instructed.

“No problem. I understand.” Zhang Jiefang nodded his head.

Yang Ming had already predicted this outcome, so it wasn’t anything unique for him. But Zhang Jiefang was rather disappointed. He thought the police would have already prosecuted Li Moli, and the imperial jade would be back. But it was all an empty joy.

Zhang Jiefang is a person who was pretty forthright. Once he was out of the police station, he wanted to bring Yang Ming to the bank and pass him the 200,000 yuan.

“Uncle Zhang, what are you doing? The police haven’t even come to crack the case. Why are you in such a hurry!” Yang Ming rejected it immediately.

“Yang Ming, your Uncle Zhang doesn’t care about this little bit of money. I don’t feel good in my heart. This whole afternoon I was thinking about this case. If you don’t take it, I won’t be able to fall asleep at night!” Zhang Jiefang shook his hand, asked hesitantly, “… Yang Ming, you can’t be thinking that Uncle Zhang was stealing my own imperial jade, can you?”

“Of course not, Uncle Zhang, why would you be thinking like this?” Yang Ming shook his hand.

“This piece of imperial jade, after processing, could be worth 800,000 yuan. Would you think that Uncle Zhang was going for your money?” Zhang Jiefang still felt somewhat insecure in his heart.

“How could it be, Uncle Zhang? If you wanted to trick me, all you had to do at that time was tell me that this was a low-quality imperial jade that was not worth a lot of money. Then you just had to buy it at a lower price from me. You didn’t have to put up so much effort. I have never doubted you!” Yang Ming continued.

“If you can put it that way then I feel better.” Zhang Jiefang nodded his head, “But no worries, if we really can’t find the imperial jade, I will pay you back according to the original price.”

Yang Ming could only nod his head.

Even though the imperial jade was gone, the business must continue. Thinking about how to best make up for the loss was the most important thing. The next day, Zhang Jiefang and Yang Ming came to Liang Jinya’s Jade Stone Company.

Liang Jinya saw that the people at the front weren’t his common customers. He asked, “Boss, how do you know that I have a pile of new raw stones here?”

“A business friend of mine told me. He is one of your clients who comes here pretty often.” Zhang Jiefang had already thought of his excuse.

“Your friend is?” Liang Jinya asked.

“Sun Laoer!” Zhang Jiefang said, “I am not sure of his real name. You know it as well that people who are in retail don’t like to broadcast their names. If there’s no need, you may not want to continue asking.”

Liang Jinya nodded his head. He also understood that many of the traveling merchants would use an alias for their own safety. Since one of his clients recommended Zhang Jiefang, he shouldn’t deny him entrance. Therefore, he said, “Boss, since it is the first time you are here, let me explain the rules. For the new stock that you are taking, at the bare minimum you need a purchase of 100,000 yuan!”

“No problem.” Zhang Jiefang nodded his head indifferently. 100,000 yuan was a small number for him.

Liang Jinya gave Zhang Jiefang a few large sized sacks after writing some numbers on top. Then, he signaled him to start picking up the rocks inside and weighed it.

“Boss Liang, I want to gamble a few rocks too, but I can’t reach 100,000 yuan, is that okay?” Yang Ming asked.

“Since you both are together, it’s fine. Let me bring you another sack, and you can pick yourself.” The reason Liang Jinya stated the rule for a minimum purchase of 100,000 yuan was to avoid some merchants who were just there to blend with others. However, for Yang Ming, this type of person who came with another client, he didn’t have to follow the rule strictly.

“Why, Yang Ming, you still want to gamble for rock?” Zhang Jiefang felt a bit surprised listening to it.

“Yeah, I’m pretty interested in this line. I would like to test my luck again.” Yang Ming smiled as he nodded.

“Okay, I will pay for your bill!” Zhang Jiefang smiled.

“It’s alright. I have cash.” Yang Ming didn’t want to have any conflicts when it came to cashing out later on. This type of case is rather common on the internet or television. For example, if two friends went out together, A wanted to buy some lottery tickets but he didn’t have any change, so he spent B’s money. But once the lottery hit the jackpot, B wasn’t so willing and went to court to sue A. B had spent the money, and he felt that the prize should belong to him.
