Ji Zhinan replied with a half-smile, "As soon as I came back, Mom interrogated me like I was a criminal. If I hadn't presented the evidence, she probably wouldn't have believed me."
"..."
Two invisible slaps landed on Madam Ji's face, and she felt a burning pain in her cheeks.
Where Old Master Ji couldn't see, Madam Ji glared fiercely at Ji Zhinan, warning her to behave herself.
Ji Zhinan met Madam Ji's gaze calmly, without fear.
"Well... since it's a misunderstanding, let's just let it go. There's nothing more to say." Madam Ji said, trying to pull Ji Zhixia upstairs.
Xiaxia started this whole thing, we need to move on quickly.
"Wait a moment." Ji Zhinan called out to Madam Ji calmly as she closed her laptop, her beautiful eyes falling on Madam Ji.
"Mom, this isn't over yet."
"..." Madam Ji deliberately put on a stern face: "Where is this endless?"
"Mom forgot?"
"..."
"As Mom just mentioned, there's a bank card with no PIN in your dressing table drawer, containing a full five million! But when Mom checked today, she found only two million left. Three million is inexplicably gone!"
Ji Zhinan pretended to be anxious and said, "This is no small amount. How long will it take Dad to work hard to earn three million? How can things be over until we find the money?"
She hasn't even gotten her revenge yet, so how can this matter be considered closed?
"..." Madam Ji was speechless.
"Mom, I remember there aren't many people allowed in your room. Besides you and Dad, only Aunt Min and a few of the older cleaning ladies can go in. There are only a few suspects. If you ask me, we should just call the police and take them all to the station for questioning. Our Ji family has treated them well. If they dare to steal money, they deserve to go to jail!"
As he spoke, Ji Zhinan took out his phone, pressed the dial button, and was about to type "110" on the keypad.
Just as the number "110" was dialed and the call was about to go through, Madam Ji's expression changed drastically, and she loudly stopped her.
"Wait a moment!"
Ji Zhinan was not surprised at all, and was smiling as he waited for Madam Ji to stop him.
Mrs. Ji felt extremely guilty under Ji Zhinan's all-knowing gaze: "I suddenly remembered that I spent those three million."
Feeling the unfriendly gazes of Ji Pengfei and Old Master Ji upon her, Madam Ji forced a smile and explained, "Xiaxia has serious injuries on her face and body. I specifically sought out a good doctor. I used the three million to pay for her plastic surgery. I forgot about it before, I just remembered. The money isn't lost, it's not lost..."
Ji Zhinan feigned an "aha" moment: "Oh, I see."
Madam Ji nodded repeatedly: "That's exactly right."
She hesitated, her words slightly stammering, "Um... Nan Nan, Mom misunderstood you. Mom apologizes."
Now, Madam Ji just wants this matter to pass quickly.
"I accept Mom's apology." Ji Zhinan nodded, smiling slightly. "But this matter isn't over yet."
"..." Madam Ji was on the verge of a breakdown. How could this not be over yet!
Ji Zhinan asked, "Who searched my room?"
Ji Zhixia's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately buried her head to minimize her presence.
Lady Ji was buried even lower.
Seeing their attitude, Ji Zhinan understood everything. He sneered and turned to walk towards a certain direction on the first floor.
Within a minute, Aunt Min's loud voice could be heard shouting.
