Reborn As Super Heiress

When Su Anning got back home and sat in the living room, she finally came to her senses, as if suddenly recalling something, and asked urgently:

”Wait a minute, if those two people are scammers, then why would that man go out of his way to slip exactly thirty-five hundred bucks into his pocket? Isn’t that like giving himself away to us? Are scammers really that dumb?”

Huo Sining couldn’t help but twitch the corner of her mouth, looking at Su Anning helplessly, and said, ”Scammers aren’t that dumb, I think you’re the dumb one. You might as well just die from stupidity!”

”What do you mean?” Su Anning was a bit confused, not knowing what was going on.

Seeing this, Yingzi finally couldn’t hold back and said, ”That money was secretly slipped in by Miss Huo when I subdued that man while he wasn’t paying attention!”

Su Anning was stunned upon hearing this, and only then did she realize the key point. Suddenly, she realized her own foolishness: ”So, Sister Ningning, you deliberately set up that scammer, huh? Oh, I’m really stupid; how did I not think this through!”

Huo Sining smiled with her lips pressed together: ”This is called using their own trick against them. Since that scammer dared to use such a cheap trick to deceive people, they should be prepared to be outwitted! It’s just unfortunate, though!”

Su Anning felt puzzled: ”Unfortunate? Why, what’s unfortunate?”

Huo Sining’s lips curled up, and her eyes flashed a hint of slyness:

”It’s unfortunate that these two scammers, they’re too timid. If that pretty woman dared to say her wallet had a check for tens of thousands, no, even millions of US Dollars inside, hehe, I guarantee I would dare to take out a check of equivalent value to gamble their mouths! Blackmailing millions of US Dollars is enough to bury them underground!”

This time, it was Su Anning’s turn to have a black line across her forehead.

After witnessing Huo Sining’s thunderous methods, despite Huo Sining’s casual joke, Su Anning didn’t dare to underestimate it at all, because she didn’t doubt for a second that with Huo Sining’s skills, her sister truly could slip a million-dollar check into that scammer’s pocket!

”Uh... Sister Ningning, the check’s easier to slip in than such a thick wad of cash, huh. But that scammer is very alert, how did you manage to slip the money into his pocket without him noticing?”

Huo Sining laughed: ”Did you forget what my side job is?”

Su Anning was taken aback: ”Treasure appraisal? Stone gambling? No, wait, acting?”

Huo Sining burst out laughing: ”I also have a title, called Miss Magic. Back in the day, I made a name for myself with magic tricks, especially close-up magic. I can perform without anyone being able to find a flaw. You tell me, just slipping a wad of cash into that scammer’s pocket without anyone noticing, how could that be hard for me?”

Su Anning then remembered, yes, this sister had also participated in a Spring Festival Gala back then, specifically performing a magic show, which to this day people still talk about and hold in high regard.

It’s just that, because of the shocking things Huo Sining did over the years, many people know about her expertise in treasure appraisal and stone gambling, that her talent and achievements in magic have been overlooked.

Su Anning couldn’t help scratching the back of her head, feeling a bit embarrassed: ”How could I forget such an important thing; others might not be able to, but for my sister, this kind of thing is really a piece of cake. Even if the police retrieve the surveillance, they probably won’t find anything wrong.”

”That’s right!” Huo Sining was confident about this because the money was taken out from the storage ring with her mental power only after she had reached into the scammer’s pocket. Outsiders would see her go in empty-handed and come out with a wad of cash, naturally assuming that the money was hidden by the scammer himself, not knowing that Huo Sining had deliberately set it up.

To Huo Sining, it was definitely worth it to shell out thirty-five hundred bucks to make the scammer fall flat on his face and smoothly extricate Su Anning from danger. Not to mention thirty-five hundred, even thirty-five million, under these circumstances, she wouldn’t hesitate.

Worst case scenario, she could just settle accounts after the fact; Huo Sining never let herself lose out on these things.

As for at the police station, how those two scammers would explain the sudden appearance of thirty-five hundred dollars, it wasn’t a problem for Huo Sining to worry about. Even if those two scammers told the truth and insisted the money wasn’t theirs, the police probably wouldn’t believe them. They would instead think that the two were intentionally denying it.

Huo Sining hates scammers the most, especially those who bully vulnerable groups. Today’s incident, if she weren’t present, Su Anning would undoubtedly suffer the loss. Those two scammers would have run off with the earrings, and Su Anning, a young girl, wouldn’t be quick enough to catch up even if she reacted in time, probably could only stare blankly, unable to do anything.

If someone were to put the video online, sooner or later a group of clueless keyboard warriors might turn the tables, saying it was Su Anning, young and sticky-fingered. This kind of situation varies from person to person, and not everyone can analyze and handle it rationally.

Huo Sining is now waiting for Guo Dongliang to get back to her. With him overseeing, the investigation and case filing speed at the Public Security Bureau should be very fast. It probably won’t take long to close the case.

Indeed, by the evening, Guo Dongliang called Huo Sining to inform her of the investigation and evidence-gathering results of those two scammers duping people on the street and mentioned that the procedures were underway.

Immediately thereafter, Guo Dongliang also mentioned the matter of Lai Wenguang. After being caught, Lai Wenguang initially argued and tried to clear himself, but it wasn’t long before some customers who previously lost money buying raw materials from his shop came to the police station to complain.

In fact, it wasn’t like there hadn’t been any complaints before, but with Zhao Youxing covering, those consumer complaints were suppressed. Now that the consumers know Lai Wenguang has been caught, they seized the opportunity to come forward, demanding Lai Wenguang refund and compensate them.

Guo Dongliang assigned the matter to the people below him, and Zhao Youxing was directly dismissed and expelled. Lai Wenguang realized this time there was no easy way out, and slowly gave up resisting, honestly confessing all the years of selling fake raw materials across various places.

Guo Dongliang originally thought this was Lai Wenguang’s first time doing this, but it turned out that upon investigation, it involved several provinces, and the involved funds increased drastically, reaching tens of millions in the end!

At this point, it wasn’t just Guo Dongliang, even the director of the Imperial Capital City was alarmed.
