"Did you feel sothing strange?" Sang Yu asked after they left.
Jiang Jingming nodded, "Yeah, it was a bit odd."
"Do you think they might have been deceived?" Sang Yu was a bit worried; otherwise, why would soone actively ask for cash?
Such a large amount of cash isn’t easy to handle, and carrying it is also unsafe.
"No." Jiang Jingming said firmly.
"Why?" Sang Yu was puzzled.
"I know them." Jiang Jingming said suddenly.
Sang Yu looked at Jiang Jingming in surprise, "What? You know them?"
Jiang Jingming nodded, "Yes."
Jiang Jingming slowly explained their situation, "That elderly woman ca to the police station a year ago to report a case because her daughter was beaten, and the person who beat her daughter was her daughter’s husband. At that ti, the man was captured at the police station, but for so reason, the woman chose to forgive him. Half a year later, the elderly woman ca again.
This ti it wasn’t about beating, but she said her daughter died.
The cause was suicide.
Although at the ti she claid her daughter was forced by that man, there was no evidence, and the final investigation result also showed the woman’s death was due to suicide, so the matter ca to nothing.
The man has a serious gambling problem, and most of the family’s money was taken by him to gamble, so this ti she probably decided to sell the house because she wants to leave this place."
"But in that case, isn’t it better to deposit the money in the bank?" Sang Yu wondered, after all, if the man finds out there’s so much money he will definitely snatch it.
"Banks are even less safe for her, and she plans to leave today, so she decided to take all the money with her." Jiang Jingming explained.
Sang Yu thought back to the elderly woman and Xiao Cong, feeling a bit sad.
"What about their future, the old and the young? How will they live?"
Jiang Jingming comfortingly patted Sang Yu’s shoulder, "It’s okay, since she’s decided to leave, it ans she’s already found a way forward."
Sang Yu thought it made sense, otherwise. "Alright then."
"Enough about that, I bought a house today, I’m in a good mood, let treat you to dinner." Sang Yu’s emotions ca and went quickly.
Jiang Jingming raised an eyebrow, "Alright."
Sang Yu and Jiang Jingming arrived at the restaurant and found there was a dispute inside.
"I already said I didn’t steal." It was a young girl, surrounded by a group of people.
Those people looked at the girl with disgust and scorn.
The girl’s eyes were red, stubbornly biting her lower lip, like a defiant little white flower.
"What’s going on?" Sang Yu couldn’t help but feel a bit sorry for the girl and asked the person nearby.
Jiang Jingming stood beside Sang Yu as her Flower Protector.
The woman who was asked said, "What else could it be, this young girl, so young and already on the wrong path, stole sothing from soone and still won’t admit it."
"Stole sothing? What did she steal?" Sang Yu asked.
"I’m not sure either, I just got here a while ago, you should ask the people in front." The woman said.
Not knowing yet speaking so definitely?
"Besides you who else, don’t pretend anymore, you’re the best at pretending, always acting innocent to make everyone pity you, right?" Another girl standing opposite the girl’s said.
The two looked like one was strong and the other weak.
The contrast was really obvious.
So n looked on with a bit of reluctance.
"Miss, when you accuse soone of stealing, you should have evidence, you can’t just say it unsubstantiated."
"Yeah, I don’t think this young lady looks like soone who would steal."
"Could there be so misunderstanding?"
The wronged girl stubbornly looked at the person in front of her, speaking firmly, "I told you I didn’t steal, I know my family’s situation is poor, I know you all look down on , but you can’t accuse like this!"
"Accuse you? Laughable, look at how many n are on your side, you’re quite pleased, aren’t you?"
"I am not, don’t talk nonsense, you’re defaming ."
"Defaming? Oh, you have a reputation?"
"How can you speak so harshly?"
The Flower Protector appeared again.
The girl sneered, looking at the girl in front of her, who was pretending to be strong despite being delicate, "Then tell , why is the necklace from my bag missing?"
"I don’t know."
"Don’t know? A likely story, if I rember correctly, just now you were the only one sitting next to , and my bag was always on the bench. I went out once, but when I ca back, the necklace in my bag was gone. Su Yue, stop pretending so outrageously."
The girl nad Su Yue looked at her, "Jiang Ning, I wasn’t the only one here, how can you be so sure it was , and I already showed you my bag, there’s no necklace inside,
if you don’t like you can just tell , I can avoid attending this gathering, but you can’t gang up to bully ."
Su Yue looked isolated and helpless, making the onlookers suddenly feel a bit sympathetic.
They began to wonder if Su Yue was really misunderstood.
Jiang Ning laughed, "Su Yue, oh Su Yue, always the sa, do you really think everything you’ve done before is unknown? Though you did say one thing correctly.
Yes, I intentionally showed you the necklace."
Su Yue’s eyes showed a flicker of guilt.
Jiang Ning continued slowly, "Honestly, that necklace isn’t worth much, my family doesn’t lack that bit of money, it’s usually used to reward the household staff, but why did I bring it out today and show it to you? Do you know why?"
Su Yue suddenly felt a premonition of doom.
Then Jiang Ning said, "Yes, just as you think, because I knew you’d take it, and this ti it’s to tear off your mask in front of everyone!"
Su Yue raised her head, tearful, "I don’t know what you’re talking about, all along none of you liked , I thought this ti you considered a friend, that’s why you invited , but I didn’t expect you were plotting against .
You just want to watch die, right? Fine, I’ll show you by dying right now."
Su Yue suddenly produced a knife from sowhere and was about to stab herself in the chest.
Everyone gasped in shock, too scared to react.
Suddenly a big hand grabbed Su Yue’s wrist and twisted gently, making Su Yue cry out in pain as the knife fell to the ground.
Everyone looked at the man who stopped Su Yue.
It was Jiang Jingming.
Su Yue saw Jiang Jingming too, her gaze imdiately showed so infatuation.
Jiang Ning was surprised, looking at Jiang Jingming, and also noticed Su Yue’s eyes on Jiang Jingming, then a hint of sarcasm flashed through Jiang Ning’s eyes.
