The manager had never seen such an outrageous mother who displayed such blatant favoritism.
Even if the evidence was conclusive, she at least had to try to defend her daughter, but this mother actually tried to pin the bla on her other daughter!
How unbelievable!
“Impossible!” Liang Xiuqin didn’t believe that the jade seal wasn’t in Yun Xi’s purse. She rushed forward and grabbed Yun Xi’s handbag, then dumped everything on the table.
Such uncouth behavior attracted a lot of disgusted eye rolls from the socialites in the room.
Her desperately trying to pin the bla on her own daughter was simply too shaless!
Several of the socialites there were also regular custors of Liang Xiuqin’s spa. It was really eye-opening for them to see Liang Xiuqin acting so shaless.
Several of them had the urge to imdiately cut all ties with her, so they wouldn’t seem as classless and uncivilized as her by association.
There was a bundle of scalpels hidden in Yun Xi’s bag. Liang Xiuqin thought it was sothing suspicious and opened it, but then the expression on her face suddenly changed.
“What is this? Why do you want to bring in so many knives?”
Yun Xi frowned when she saw Liang Xiuqin treat the bundle of scalpels so roughly, and, suppressing her anger, she stepped forward and snatched them back.
With her eyes downcast, she tied the scalpels back together with a grave expression on her face.
She gazed at her mother’s unsightly face indifferently.
“I am a dical student, and I brought the scalpels with for ergency first aid just in case.”
“Are you using studying dicine as an excuse? There are so many guests here tonight, so what if you hurt soone?”
After being scorned just now, Liang Xiuqin resented the manager, so she didn’t forget to throw him under the bus as well.
“You, too, manager, how could the security at the door allow her to bring a knife in! Can you be held responsible if sothing goes wrong?”
Yun Xi couldn’t help but laugh at her mother’s self-righteous rebuke.
“The guests coming tonight are famous and important people, and there are so many security personnel here. So, Mom, what do you think I want to do? Which one of them present is soone that the Yun family can afford to provoke?”
“You...” Liang Xiuqin’s face imdiately darkened after Yun Xi talked back to her so directly.
At this mont, Jiang Wanyun spoke up, “I told the manager to allow Yun Xi to bring in the scalpels.”
Upon hearing her voice, Liang Xiuqin turned her head. When she saw it was Jiang Wanyun speaking, she felt so humiliated that she lowered her head.
“Yun Xi was my son’s lifesaver. If it wasn’t because Yun Xi had the habit of carrying scalpels with her, I’m afraid my son wouldn’t be here today. So at today’s security check, I specifically ordered them to allow Yun Xi to bring in the scalpels. So, if sothing goes wrong, I will be responsible!”
As the originator of today’s auction, what right did Liang Xiuqin have to object?
Jiang Wanyun had just given her a slap in the face!
That wretched girl Yun Xi was willing to humiliate her publicly.
“Since evidence of framing her hasn’t been found, does second young master Jiang feel that you need to investigate further?”
Yun Xi asked in a nonchalant manner as she turned to look at Jiang Henglin, who hadn’t changed his expression.
He had already lost face, so Jiang Henglin wished to keep a low profile at the mont.
Now that Yun Xi was throwing him under the bus, he shot daggers at her with viciousness in his eyes.
His eyes were full of unabashed loathing toward her, and he muttered coldly, “Check, why not check further? Who knows whether or not you’re simply hiding it?”
After making him suffer such embarrassnt, he wasn’t going to let her off the hook that easily either.
Thinking of this possibility, Liang Xiuqin turned her head and glared at Liang Xinyi coldly.
Liang Xinyi was also in a panic. She had never dealt with such a scene in all her life.
Anxious to get on Liang Xiuqin’s good side, and anxious to fra Yun Xi, Liang Xinyi was on edge.
“I definitely...”
She definitely put the jade seal in the bag, so why was it gone?
Could it be that she had discovered it, so she hid it elsewhere?
Upon thinking of this possibility, Liang Xinyi raised her head. “Yes! She must have hidden it sowhere else!”
