After that, Ye Leng’an directly unzipped her bag before others touched it. She turned it upside down and poured everything on the table.
Instantly, everyone’s eyes were riveted on the table. Because of Qian Gumeng’s confident look, most people suspected that Ye Leng’an stole the necklace. However, when they found out that the person who backed her up was Young Master Huangfu, they felt that Ye Leng’an wouldn’t do such a thing. That was because she had already hooked up with the young master of the Huangfu family. She had everything she wanted! How could she steal a necklace?
Qian Gumeng was the first to rush forward. She immediately began to rummage around on the table.
Unlike other girls, Ye Leng’an didn’t have many things in her bag. There was only a wallet, a bunch of keys, a pack of tissues, and a small jade bottle. Everything could be seen clearly at a glance.
“How is that possible?” Qian Gumeng stared hard at the things on the table.
“Where is the necklace? Ye Leng’an, where did you hide that necklace?” The necklace should have been in Ye Leng’an’s bag, but it was nowhere to be found. It was Ye Leng’an. Ye Leng’an must have hidden it herself.
“Oh, why are you so sure that the necklace is in my bag?” Ye Leng’an said with a faint smile, “What? Did you see it?”
“Obviously…” Qian Gumeng was so angry that she was about to speak.
However, just as she opened her mouth, she was interrupted by a voice.
“Gumeng, stop it.” Ye Xiyuan stopped her. “Since the necklace isn’t here, it means that Lengan didn’t steal it. I know you are anxious to help me find the necklace, but you can’t wrong an innocent person. Leng’an has already proven her innocence.”
Although Ye Xiyuan looked calm on the surface, her mind was in turmoil. Earlier, she had clearly asked the System to place the necklace in Ye Leng’an’s bag. However, the necklace was nowhere to be found. Where did the necklace
Right now, she could feel the hostile gazes cast in her direction. However, the worse the situation, the more she had to remain calm. Now things had gone out of control, she had to minimize her losses. Since she couldn’t find the necklace in Ye Leng’an’s bag, she definitely couldn’t be aggressive now. Otherwise, anyone with a discerning eye would probably suspect that this was a self-inflicted problem.
Qian Gumeng, that idiot, almost spilled the beans just now. As expected, an idiot was an idiot. Today, she made missteps one after another. Such an idiot even wanted to use her to get close to Li Deze. She must be dreaming.
“Xiyuan, your necklace is definitely on her.” Qian Gumeng was so anxious that her eyes turned red. “She must have hidden it.”
“Gumeng, stop talking.” Ye Xiyuan looked at Qian Gumeng, her gaze cold. “The truth is right in front of us. We can’t wrong Leng’an.”
Qian Gumeng was shocked by the coldness in Ye Xiyuan’s eyes. She had never seen such a cold gaze from the moment she met Ye Xiyuan. All along, Ye Xiyuan had always given her the impression that she was gentle and considerate. No matter what she said, Ye Xiyuan would always speak in a gentle voice. However, now she felt as if something would happen if she continued to speak. She immediately shut up.
Ye Leng’an looked at Ye Xiyuan with a meaningful smile on her face. “Ye Xiyuan, now you all saw my bag, what about the others? I’m still waiting for your order!”
Ye Xiyuan gritted her teeth and fell into a dilemma. Ye Leng’an was the one who requested to search everyone’s bags, but now all the responsibility was on her. She didn’t know where Ye Leng’an had taken the necklace. It would be fine if she couldn’t find it by then. If she really found it on someone else, it would be a matter of offending.
“System, where is the necklace now?” At this point, she could only get the necklace back first. Otherwise, something might really happen later.
After that, Ye Xiyuan anxiously waited for the system’s reply. Because everyone’s attention was on her now, she had to make a decision as soon as possible..
