Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 2672: Chapter 2668: Accident

"Fake? You mean he wants to use this fake one to exchange for the piece I have?" Qin Xue asked Chu Molin with her lips, having just restrained her aura. If that’s the case, Lin Ziqi might try to make a move along the way.

If that’s true, it’s going to be quite the show. But she shouldn’t think about going back into the space to do her thing, because there’s a bomb nearby watching her every move. If she tries anything, she’d be discovered. It’s too risky.

"It probably is." Fan Molin knew it was likely this way, so he just made a few snide remarks and left it at that. Otherwise, he might have just given the guy a good beating; there wouldn’t still be anything like this, letting him jump around so freely.

"So he’s worried that after we leave, he won’t find us when he gets over there, or maybe he’s afraid I’ll sell the item, right?" Qin Xue speculated about Lin Ziqi’s thoughts, feeling that he was overthinking things.

She just wanted to show him that there’s always someone better; she never considered selling the item. So he was definitely jumping to conclusions.

"Perhaps it’s a bit of both. After all, everyone has some sense of self-interest. Seeing money, who wouldn’t be tempted? Once the temptation sets in, they’ll pawn things or take a gamble, a risky gamble," Chu Molin observed his wife’s demeanor. She didn’t look at all like someone in need, which explained why someone targeted her. The other party probably never expected to end up being undermined by his wife; otherwise, he might never have dared try anything with her.

Chu Molin thought that to engage with his wife, he’d have to understand what kind of person she was first; otherwise, he’d be in serious trouble.

Qin Xue wondered why everything she did had to attract so much trouble; if she really wanted to do something, it would be another story.

Thus, Chu Molin thought Lin Ziqi must not have checked the Chinese calendar before going out; he picked the wrong person to mess with and decided to target Qin Xue instead, as if he had a death wish.

"Alright, I really can’t argue with that. But I hadn’t planned to do anything about either. This item has some puzzling aspects for me, so I want to understand it clearly before deciding anything. Now that he’s following, that’s even better."

From the moment Qin Xue saw the item in her hand, she was a bit shaken; it truly puzzled her. So she never considered doing anything with it, and Lin Ziqi was definitely wrong in his assumptions.

But being able to find a fake piece that could pass as real in such a short time was indeed quite a capability on his part.

This kind of situation left Qin Xue unsure of what to say, as things were getting more complicated. She wanted a breakthrough; she needed to get to the bottom of what she was investigating, so she wasn’t going to act rashly but would let Lin Ziqi reveal it himself.

Otherwise, why do you think Qin Xue was setting things up this way? She laid the trap precisely for Lin Ziqi to take the bait because only when the bait is in place will the fish bite.

Qin Xue’s mind was no less sharp than Chu Molin’s; on the contrary, she thought even more deeply and in detail, for not all things were as straightforward as they appeared.
