Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 3160: Chapter 3158: Could It Be Someone Close to Us

It’s a bit early to cook rice now. Brother-in-law and the others haven’t returned yet, and once cooked, there’s no telling when they’ll be back to eat. So I just cooked some noodles to fill our stomachs.

Qin Lei and his wife aren’t picky about food. They’re just thinking about postponing things.

”Have you eaten yet? Let’s eat together.” Nangong Shulan didn’t really mean to criticize her younger daughter; she just wanted to take a look at things as they came.

”Mom, I’ve already eaten. I ate not too long ago. I was doing homework at home because I was worried there would be no one home when you arrived, so I stayed. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be home.” Qin Jiale explained the situation.

”Has your sister offended someone? This situation clearly seems like someone is targeting her.” Qin Lei immediately noticed the problem.

”Brother-in-law and the others said the same thing, but despite thinking it over, they couldn’t figure out who it could be.” Qin Jiale had heard this from her brother-in-law and the others, not expecting that such a coincidental issue would occur.

”Have you considered it might be someone around you?” Qin Lei thought for a moment and suggested.

”Dad, what are you saying?” Chu Molin and the others had returned from outside and urgently asked after hearing Qin Lei’s words.

”I’m saying, have you considered if it’s someone around you? Otherwise, who would be so familiar with your movements?” Qin Lei shared his thoughts.

It had to be this way. Otherwise, who would monitor others’ affairs every day for nothing?

Achieving such a thing would only be possible with someone familiar committing the act. Otherwise, it wouldn’t make sense.

”Dad, you guys eat the noodles first, and once you’re full, we’ll talk.” Chu Molin had previously thought about this issue, and he considered every possibility without identifying who might be involved.

Unexpectedly, Qin Lei brought up the topic, which made him feel that there might be hidden complexities within the matter.

But now, with the current outcome, investigating the situation wouldn’t be easy. If Qin Xue were home, it would be easier to discuss, but since she’s not, uncovering the truth might require some effort.

Chu Molin looked at his in-laws, asking them to eat the noodles first because the matter wasn’t urgent at this moment.

”Mom and Dad, I’ll take the luggage inside. You can just collect it from there.” Qin Yu looked at the luggage brought by his parents. Leaving it outside wouldn’t do, so it’s better to decide on a room to rest in.

”Okay.” Qin Lei didn’t object; since they’ll be staying here, taking things inside was normal.

Moreover, he felt that they wouldn’t be leaving anytime soon, so it’s better to discuss and understand the situation thoroughly.

”Dad, are you implying there’s someone close to us specifically targeting Xue’er?” Chu Molin poured a cup of water for his in-laws before asking.

”Hmm, do you think that’s the case?” Qin Lei kept it brief because he didn’t know the situation after they arrived, leaving it to them to figure out what was happening.

”We thought about this issue before, but there were no suspects, so we couldn’t find that person.” Chu Molin knew the idea, but there was no one to suspect.

”Go through the people one by one, then think carefully about who is familiar with you to this extent.” Qin Lei understood that sometimes things could provoke jealousy, so it’s not that they didn’t want to do anything but rather lacked the means.

Moreover, this was not known beforehand, so uncovering it will require analysis.
