The system cannot detect the location of the necklace. The mechanical voice rang out, but Ye Xiyuan almost freaked out after hearing it. The necklace must have been blocked by something.

What? Ye Xiyuan almost cursed out loud. Didnt you put the necklace in Ye Lengans bag just now? But it isnt there, and you cant tell where it is either? Is this how you do things?

There were suddenly electric fizzles, and the System did not reply.

Ye Xiyuan didnt know if the System was hiding or if something malfunctioned again. However, at this moment, she was really cursing in her heart. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that the System was unreliable at times. There were many times she couldnt reach the System when something happened.

You cant decide? Ye Lengan didnt back down. She continued, Dont tell me you only wanted to search my bag today! Can I take it that everything you did today was actually targeted at me?

No, Ye Xiyuan immediately retorted. I just

For a moment, she did not know what to say. She looked up at Nangong Xuyao.

In such a situation, only Nangong Xuyao could help her.

Sure enough, after receiving Ye Xiyuans pleading gaze, Nangong Xuyao stepped forward and said, Miss Ye, since youve already proven your innocence, I dont think the others will mind proving their innocence too!

While speaking, he looked around at the people in the banquet hall with a hint of toughness in his eyes.

In fact, he did not want to get so many people involved, but they were already stuck. If he didnt search the other peoples bags, Ye Lengan wouldnt let it go today. He wasnt afraid of Ye Lengan, but he was afraid of Huangfu Ruiling, who was standing behind her.

Moreover, to be honest, they were indeed in the wrong today.

Young Master Nangong is really a man with guts. Ye Lengan clapped her hands and turned to look in Qian Gumengs direction. Since were going to continue the search, lets search her bag first! Just now, she was the one who ran around and fanned the flames, and she was also the one who accused me of theft. So, I want to see how innocent she is.

What? Suddenly being mentioned, Qian Gumeng almost jumped up. Ye Lengan, who do you think you are to search my bag?

Although she was sure that the necklace wasnt in her bag, she couldnt accept Ye Lengans request.

Qian Gumeng, the phrase double standard is tailor-made for you. Ye Lengan smiled disdainfully. Didnt you just say that you wanted to search my bag?

Now that its your turn, why are you so resistant? Or are you feeling guilty?

Ye Lengan, dont talk nonsense. Qian Gumeng was so agitated that she almost lost her mind.

Hmph, if you want to search, do it. Qian Gumeng poured everything in her bag onto the table as Ye Lengan did. Im a righteous person. Im not afraid of you! You

Qian Gumeng was abruptly silenced, and the entire banquet hall became quiet. Everyones eyes were fixed on the glittering diamond necklace on the table. The pink diamond looked particularly beautiful under the light. This necklace was the one that Ye Xiyuan had just worn around her neck. But now, it was in Qian Guimengs bag.

Oh, it seems like there really is a thief crying Stop thief! Ye Lengan looked as if she was taking pleasure in Ye Xiyuans misfortune. Ye Xiyuan, looks like you brought in a troublemaker! Didnt you say that Qian Gumeng was your good friend? Now your best friend stole your necklace, what are you going to do?

Ye Xiyuan wanted to scheme against her, so she had to put Ye Xiyuan in a dilemma. This was also why she chose to put the necklace in Qian Gumengs bag instead of Ye Xiyuans. That necklace was originally Ye Xiyuans. Even if she really found it on Ye Xiyuan, Ye Xiyuan could s.h.i.+rk all responsibility by saying that she accidentally forgot where it was. Although this would make a

fool of herself, no one wanted to pursue it.

However, if it was in Qian Gumengs bag, it would be another story. Especially when Qian Gumeng was the one who ran around the most. This was completely a conspiracy!

It wasnt me, it really wasnt me. Qian Gumeng was also anxious. I really dont know why that necklace is in my bag. I

Suddenly, Qian Gumeng seemed to have thought of something. She turned her head and looked at Ye Lengan. It all clicked. Ye Lengan, its you, isnt it? You put the necklace in my bag. You want to frame me, dont you?

Qian Gumeng, are you still dreaming? Although that was the truth, Ye Lengan would never admit it. She sneered and said, Just now, you averred that the necklace was in my bag. Now the necklace was found in your bag, and you said I put it in your bag. If you are the one to decide, then why do we need the police station and the court?

Its you, it must be you. Qian Gumeng was even more certain. Who else will do such a thing?

She could not care about anything else now. She was certain that it was Ye Lengans doing. Otherwise, why was this necklace in her bag? Ye Lengan must have found out their plan from the beginning, so she played along and framed her.

Oh, why did you say that I did it? Ye Lengan brushed her hair and said lazily, In my opinion, you kept accusing me just now to divert everyones attention so that you could take the necklace away!

Youre talking nonsense Qian Gumeng had lost all rationality at this moment. She blurted out, You must know that we

Gumeng, I believe you didnt do it on purpose. Just as Qian Gumeng was about to say something, Ye Xiyuan quickly interrupted her. You just wanted to take a look. You didnt want to steal the necklace, right?

She couldnt let Qian Gumeng tell the truth here, otherwise, everything would be ruined. Nangong Xuyao was also here. She knew very well that Nangong Xuyao liked her innocence and kindness. If he found out that everything that happened today was a trap set up by her, then even if she saved his life, they would never be able to be together again.

Xiyuan, it was Ye Lengan. It must be Ye Lengan. Qian Gumeng anxiously pulled Ye Xiyuans hand and desperately tried to defend herself, You must help me. You must help me..
