But, if I didnt steal that necklace. What about my reputation today? How are you going to deal with it?
Nangong Xuyao was speechless and didnt know how to reply.
Then what do you want to do now? After a moment of silence, Nangong Xuyao spoke again, Youre the prime suspect now, but you refuse to prove your innocence. Or is there anyone else you suspect?
Hehe, how ridiculous. Ye Lengan said disdainfully, You considered me the prime suspect just because of what Qian Gumeng said. Do you have any other evidence? If a person can be convicted just based on other peoples remarks, then can I say that youre a thief crying Stop thief?
No. Ye Xiyuan raised her head and said with tearful eyes, That necklace is very important to me. I would never do something like that!
Then, she turned to look at Nangong Xuyao and said anxiously, Brother
Nangong, believe me. I didnt do that.
I trust you. Nangong Xuyao nodded. He looked at Ye Xiyuan and said seriously, Youre definitely not that kind of person.
Huangfu Ruiling had no interest in what was happening. He looked up at Ye
Lengan, asking, What do you plan to do?
Its very simple! Ye Lengan tilted her head and smiled. Just like I said earlier, since you want to search my bag, then for the sake of fairness, you have to search everyones bag!
Huangfu Ruiling nodded and then looked at Li San behind him.
Li San already knew what Huangfu Ruiling meant. He took out his phone, made a call, and whispered something into it.
In just a moment, a group of bodyguards swarmed in and surrounded the entire banquet hall.
In an instant, the banquet hall began to become noisy. At this moment, many people wanted to leave. However, before they could reach the door, they were stopped by the bodyguards.
Young Master Huangfu, what do you mean? Nangong Xuyaos face darkened as he looked at Huangfu Ruiling.
Ye Xiyuan looked displeased either. She did not expect things to come to this. She had originally planned to forgive Ye Lengan after finding the necklace in her bag. And Ye Lengans reputation would be completely ruined after that. Her birthday party could continue, and she was still the most eye-catching princess in everyones eyes.
But now things had come to this, her birthday party was almost ruined. She could almost imagine how these people would talk about her birthday tomorrow morning.
To help you find your necklace! Huangfu Ruiling said coldly, Werent you guys the ones who kept clamoring to find the necklace?
But Seeing this situation, Ye Li was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He didnt expect things to turn out like this. Not only did he fail to expand his network by holding this banquet today, but he also offended many people.
Ye Lengan, dont go too far. Lin Wanqin took a step forward and gritted her teeth. Weve already decided not to pursue the matter, but why are you still so aggressive?
You guys started this, but you are not the one to make the call to stop it. Ye Lengan sneered and said, If we dont find the necklace today, no one will be able to step out of this banquet hall.
In a few simple words, she made everyone present tremble with fear involuntarily. They realized that Ye Lengan wasnt bluffing. She was just stating a fact.
Good! At this moment, Ye Xiyuan stood out and looked at Ye Lengan. Since you insist, well do as you say. However, I want to search your bag first. Do you dare?
Since things had come to this, she had to minimize her losses. Later, as long as she found the necklace in Ye Lengans bag, there was no need to search other peoples bags.
After the matter was over, she only needed to go on stage and apologize to everyone. She believed that most people would not mind. After all, they didnt suffer any actual losses.
Seeing Ye Xiyuans confident look, Ye Lengan smiled and nodded. As you wish..
