Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Qian Gung didn’t know how to answer a barrage of questions from Ye Leng’an. Moreover, she noticed that when the others looked at her, there was a hint of suspicion in their eyes.
“Ye Leng’an, this is sophistry.” Qian Gung was also a little anxious. “If you didn’t have a guilty conscience, why didn’t you let us see your bag?”
“Your eagerness to slander even makes suspect that you’re the thief!” Ye Leng’an said aningfully, “What you are doing is to divert everyone’s attention.”
“You…” Qian Gung was speechless. She was very anxious, but she didn’t know what to say.
Ye Xiyuan, who was standing at the side, secretly cursed Qian Gung for being an idiot. She stepped forward and said with a smile. “Leng’an. I believe in Gung. She’s my good friend and will never do such a thing.”
Why didn’t she notice that Qian Gung was so stupid? Qian Gung always spoiled things and she was completely useless tonight. Every ti, Ye Leng’an’s questions would strike Qian Gung speechless. She even doubted if it was a wise decision to choose Qian Gung as her hatchet man.
“Oh, so you an you don’t believe ?” Ye Leng’an suddenly understood and said, “If that’s the case, why did you personally co to invite to this party?
Did you purposefully want to see this scene?”
“Ye Leng’an, how can you think of like that?” Ye Xiyuan looked like she had suffered a huge blow. “I sincerely invited you over. Moreover, I also believe that you are definitely not that kind of person. But, I think you also want to prove your innocence, right?”
“No!” Ye Leng’an did not play by the rules. “You’re the ones who are suspecting now. So, you should provide evidence to prove that I stole it! Not proving my innocence.”
No one had expected Ye Leng’an to reply in such a manner. Because under such circumstances, most people would be provoked to the point of wanting to prove their innocence.
For a mont, the atmosphere in the banquet hall was a little heavy. The Ye family was on one side, and Ye Leng’an was on the other. The two sides seed to be in a deadlock, and neither of them was willing to take a step back.
Ye Xiyuan was a little anxious and gave a bewildered glance at Nangong Xuyao as if she wanted to ask him for help.
Nangong Xuyao took a step forward and looked at Ye Leng’an. “Miss Ye, things have co to such a pass. There has to be an outco. Why don’t you show your bag to everyone! If we misjudge you, we will apologize to you.”
Most people would show Nangong Xuyao so respect when he made the request. Unfortunately, he was now facing Ye Leng’an.
“Apologize?” Ye Leng’an raised her eyebrows and sneered. “If an apology is useful, why do we need the police? Listen, if you want to see my bag, sure. Show concrete evidence to prove that I stole the necklace, or search everyone’s bag, including n’s pockets, for the sake of fairness.”
“That’s impossible.” Ye Li imdiately rejected it.
If he really searched everyone’s pockets today, he would offend everyone present. Even with Young Master Nangong backing him up, offending so many people at once would make it difficult for the Ye family to move forward in the future.
“Then forget it.” Ye Leng’an said nonchalantly, “Since you can’t decide, I’ll take my leave first. I don’t have ti to play this ga of a thief crying ‘Stop thief!’”
“You’re not allowed to leave,” Ye Xiyuan shrieked. However, she realized that she had overreacted and quickly explained, “I just feel that things haven’t been resolved yet. Leng’an, isn’t it inappropriate for you to leave like this?”
“If she leaves now, you can’t find your necklace.” Qian Gung slipped in her remark and looked at Ye Leng’an. “Ye Leng’an, if you didn’t have a guilty conscience, why did you want to leave now?”
“If vou can’t find the necklace. do I have to stay here with you all night?” Ye Leng’an smiled disdainfully. “I wonder why you didn’t call the police imdiately after your necklace got lost since it was so valuable. Instead, you kept insisting on searching my bag.. Did you put the necklace in my bag yourself? Why are you so sure that it’s in my bag?”
