Chapter 2347: Untitled
That was to say, she had found the bracelet at the very beginning, but had kept her silence and went on searching for other things.
Lady Gu was dumbfounded.
So was old Mrs. Gu.
Feng Qi was perplexed at first, but she soon denied it. “How can I have it?! It’s impossible! I didn’t take it!”
Granny Tao stared at Granny Zhu and asked, “Did you watch me the whole time when I searched Miss Feng Qi?”
Granny Zhu said, “Yes…”
Granny Tao then looked at Feng Qi. “Then what does Miss Feng Qi mean? Are you saying that I framed you?”
“No, I’m not. But I didn’t take the bracelet! I…” Feng Qi grabbed her mother’s hand and burst into tears. “Mother! It wasn’t me! I’m not the thief!”
Of course, Lady Gu knew that. Moreover, they were supposed to find the bracelet on Feng Wu.
Because she was the one who put it in Feng Wu’s sleeve!
How did Feng Qi end up with it?
Feng Qi was scared out of her wits. “Shouldn’t it be in Feng Wu’s sleeve? Why do I have it? It’s you! You put it there and set me up, didn’t you?!”
Feng Qi glared at Feng Wu.
However, Feng Wu only shrugged. “My dear cousin, can you tell me why you know that I was supposed to have the bracelet, and why I would want to frame you?”
Feng Qi scratched her head in a fluster, but she didn’t have any proof.
And Lady Gu knew that as well.
She and old Mrs. Gu looked at each other, and both were frustrated.
They had thought that the three plans would be enough to take Feng Wu down, but none of them worked in the end.
That girl was unbelievable!
Knowing that they had failed, old Mrs. Gu glanced at Feng Qi and said, “You naughty girl. You could have told me that you liked the bracelet, and I would have let you play with it! Taking it like that will make people mistake you for a thief!”
She then scolded Lady Gu. “At her age, you need to be more strict with her. What if she starts taking other people’s things back home?”
The old lady had been talking about catching the thief, but she tried to downplay it now that the bracelet was found on Feng Qi.
Old Mrs. Long frowned.
She didn’t say anything, but that didn’t mean that she didn’t know what was going on.
It was very petty of old Mrs. Gu to behave like this.
Feng Wu, who had kept her silence until then, asked curiously, “Is that bracelet really the one you lost?”
Old Mrs. Gu wanted to say that it wasn’t, but everyone had heard what she said earlier, and she couldn’t admit that she had been lying to all of them.
She could only nod and say, “Yes, that’s the one. She’s such a careless girl.”
While her grandmother and mother wanted her to admit that she had taken the bracelet, Feng Qi didn’t want to do that.
She didn’t want to be seen as a thief!
Because she hadn’t done it.
She grabbed the bracelet and shouted, “I told you already! I didn’t take it! I don’t know why I have it…” Crack!
