Chapter 623: Raising an Army to Punish the Crime
Qiao Xi's eyes were filled with a faint light. She sat opposite Mrs. Pei and said, "Please stretch out your hand."
Mrs. Pei's nose was not a nose, and her eyes were not eyes. She reluctantly stretched out her hand and said, "Look."
She was wearing a gorgeous tube-top dress today, with a small shawl on the outside. It was still a bit chilly to walk outside in this weather.
Qiao Xi lowered her eyes slightly, placed her fingers on her wrist, and carefully diagnosed her.
The pulse is strong and hard, going straight up and down.
Qiao Xi withdrew her hand and said, "There's nothing serious wrong with me, it's just that my liver yang is too strong, and I'm quite angry. Be careful about your diet, don't eat fishy, dry or spicy food, and don't get angry too much."
"cut."
Mrs. Pei sneered, "I know these words even if you don't say them. Do I need you to diagnose them? I thought you could diagnose some earth-shattering pulse."
"You..." Huo Sijiao was so angry that she really wanted to kick this woman out.
Pei Chun is annoying, and her mother is even more annoying!
They are indeed mother and daughter.
Outsiders also said that Pei Chun was spoiled by the direct bloodline of the Pei family. It is clear that he was corrupted from the root.
Qiao Xi squeezed Huo Sijiao's hand, looked at Mrs. Pei and said calmly, "You should be glad that you didn't diagnose any difficult or complicated diseases. I'm a doctor, so I naturally hope that all the patients I treat can live a long life."
"You speak in high-sounding terms, but who knows how you curse me in your heart. You must think I am here to cause trouble, right? Since you can't find the necklace today, not only do you have to apologize to me, you also have to pay the price and go to the police station with me."
Mrs. Pei was aggressive, and her red lips were gorgeous, just like a ghost in a strange story.
Here to take your life!
Qiao Xi glanced at the time and said, "Okay, I'll accompany you to the end."
Mrs. Pei raised the corner of her mouth with a hint of arrogance.
She looked at Huo Sijiao beside Qiao Xi and said critically, "I didn't pay much attention to Miss Huo before, but now she seems to be quite pretty. No wonder she can rely on her beauty to seduce Xu Bai. My daughter is simple-minded, so she can't handle the seductive mind of a fox."
Huo Sijiao's cheeks turned red with anger.
Qiao Xi held Huo Sijiao and shook her head. There were so many customers present. As the owners of the beauty salon, they absolutely could not conflict with the customers, otherwise it would have a bad impact.
Be patient!
Mrs. Pei smiled happily when she saw her aunt and sister-in-law swallowing their anger.
Making a scene today can not only vent my daughter's anger, but also help me curry favor with Miss Lu and gain some benefits.
Why not?
Mrs. Pei tapped the table impatiently and said, "Half an hour has passed? Why is there still no movement? Many people watched me put on the necklace, and the only person I came into contact with was the beautician Li Qian! I advise you to hand her over and everything will be clear."
"Are you done yet? Haven't you found it yet?"
"The efficiency is really low and the customer experience is not good either."
"I've been to many beauty salons in the capital, but this is the first time I'm so angry. Your Furong is no match for the Yingyue Pavilion across the street. The Jade Muscle Cream is probably a conspiracy!"
"I won't come here anymore."
Mrs. Pei kept talking to herself, urging others to do something deliberately to disturb the others and stir up their dissatisfaction.
Qiao Xi's gaze fell on Old Chen who was walking quickly along the corridor on the second floor, and the huge stone in her heart fell to the ground.
"Madam, I found something!"
Old Chen walked up to Qiao Xi and said, "Mrs. Pei's necklace was not left in any corner, but..."
"What is it?"
Before Qiao Xi could ask a question, Mrs. Pei couldn't wait to answer.
Her eyes with thick eyeliner sized up the beautician that Lao Chen brought with him, and she said sarcastically, "It was this beautician named Li Qian who did the work for me. Did she steal my stuff? I heard that the beauticians at your Furong Beauty Salon were hired from Haicheng at a high price, and they don't look that good."
"You said the necklace was found, then where is my necklace?" she asked step by step.
Qiao Xi looked at Old Chen and said, "Tell Mrs. Pei the details of the situation. There's no need to hide anything. Just be what you want to be."
Old Chen said in a deep voice: "Young Madam, the necklace was found in Li Qian's pocket. So I brought her here with me."
Everyone turned their eyes to the somewhat nervous young girl who was standing on the second-floor corridor.
She was wearing a custom-made uniform from Furong Beauty Salon, with pockets on both sides of the uniform. The right pocket looked bulging and protruding.
Many people started talking to each other.
"Did she really take it?"
"Some people working in the service industry don't have high education levels, but their eyes light up when they see something good. I've heard of this kind of rumor before."
"It seems that today is not an auspicious day for opening the business. A good pot of porridge was spoiled by a rat shit. If I hadn't come here for the jade skin cream, I would have blocked Furong and never patronized her again in my life."
Li Qianzhuang blushed. After finishing Mrs. Pei's make-up, she went to pack up and prepare to arrange the next guest.
But I heard Mrs. Pei yelling that something was lost, and the boss's bodyguard found me.
She saw the extremely expensive necklace in her pocket. She clearly remembered that Mrs. Pei took it off when she was going to have a beauty treatment.
How did it end up in my pocket!
But the bodyguard named Lao Chen wouldn't let her touch the necklace in her pocket, saying that he wanted to capture both the person and the property, and told her not to touch it with even a finger!
Otherwise she'll look good.
Li Qian's face turned pale and her legs felt weak.
"Mrs. Pei, I didn't take your necklace! I really didn't take it. We have rules in our beauty salon. We can't touch customers' things casually, and it's even more impossible to steal things."
Li Qian was very afraid that Qiao Xi wanted to push her out to take the blame and then settle the matter.
This is an explanation to Mrs. Pei.
Compared with the huge beauty salon, what does the future of a small beautician mean to the capitalists?
Her eyes were full of pleading and fear.
"Mrs. Pei, I really didn't take it. Please investigate it clearly!"
Mrs. Pei sneered, "I'm not a police officer, what am I investigating? Now that the thief has been caught, let the police take him away for questioning! My necklace is worth 680,000 yuan, enough to send you to jail for several years!"
She was extremely arrogant. She looked at the guests who came here because of her reputation and said, "You better keep an eye on your wallets and jewelry. Don't go in for beauty treatments and then go to the police station to give statements when you leave. It seems that Furong Beauty Salon doesn't care about us customers. They actually allow a thief with bad behavior to work here."
After she said a few words in a sinister tone, she looked at Qiao Xi and said provocatively, "Mrs. Huo, can I call the police? Could it be that your beauty salon wants to settle this matter with me privately?"
Qiao Xi held out her hand and said, "Please. If you want to call the police, then call the police. If you have done something wrong, you will be punished. If you have done nothing wrong, then there should be justice."
Qiao Xi looked at Mrs. Pei and smiled: "I think Mrs. Pei should be very clear about right and wrong! Please don't lie in front of the police."
"What do you mean! Have I wronged her?"
Mrs. Pei frowned, looking like she was ready to call someone to task!
