Qian Gumeng didnt know how to answer a barrage of questions from Ye Lengan. Moreover, she noticed that when the others looked at her, there was a hint of suspicion in their eyes.

Ye Lengan, this is sophistry. Qian Gumeng was also a little anxious. If you didnt have a guilty conscience, why didnt you let us see your bag?

Your eagerness to slander me even makes me suspect that youre the thief! Ye Lengan said meaningfully, What you are doing is to divert everyones attention.

You Qian Gumeng was speechless. She was very anxious, but she didnt know what to say.

Ye Xiyuan, who was standing at the side, secretly cursed Qian Gumeng for being an idiot. She stepped forward and said with a smile. Lengan. I believe in Gumeng. Shes my good friend and will never do such a thing.

Why didnt she notice that Qian Gumeng was so stupid? Qian Gumeng always spoiled things and she was completely useless tonight. Every time, Ye Lengans questions would strike Qian Gumeng speechless. She even doubted if it was a wise decision to choose Qian Gumeng as her hatchet man.

Oh, so you mean you dont believe me? Ye Lengan suddenly understood and said, If thats the case, why did you personally come to invite me to this party?

Did you purposefully want to see this scene?

Ye Lengan, how can you think of me 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 Lengan did not play by the rules. Youre the ones who are suspecting me now. So, you should provide evidence to prove that I stole it! Not me proving my innocence.

No one had expected Ye Lengan to reply in such a manner. Because under such circ.u.mstances, most people would be provoked to the point of wanting to prove their innocence.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the banquet hall was a little heavy. The Ye family was on one side, and Ye Lengan was on the other. The two sides seemed 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 Lengan. Miss Ye, things have come to such a pa.s.s. There has to be an outcome. Why dont you show your bag to everyone! If we misjudge you, we will apologize to you.

Most people would show Nangong Xuyao some respect when he made the request. Unfortunately, he was now facing Ye Lengan.

Apologize? Ye Lengan 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 me concrete evidence to prove that I stole the necklace, or search everyones bag, including mens pockets, for the sake of fairness.

Thats impossible. Ye Li immediately rejected it.

If he really searched everyones 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 Lengan said nonchalantly, Since you cant decide, Ill take my leave first. I dont have time to play this game of a thief crying Stop thief!

Youre not allowed to leave, Ye Xiyuan shrieked. However, she realized that she had overreacted and quickly explained, I just feel that things havent been resolved yet. Lengan, isnt it inappropriate for you to leave like this?

If she leaves now, you cant find your necklace. Qian Gumeng slipped in her remark and looked at Ye Lengan. Ye Lengan, if you didnt have a guilty conscience, why did you want to leave now?

If vou cant find the necklace. do I have to stay here with you all night? Ye Lengan smiled disdainfully. I wonder why you didnt call the police immediately 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 its in my bag?
