C57 It's Switched
Naturally, the people present weren't willing to be seen as thieves, so they all agreed to conduct a body search.
Mrs. Van was also very helpless and could only agree to this method.
After a round of searching, it was finally Shen Xining and Su Ci's turn.
Shen Xining very consciously handed the bag in her hands to the security guard who was searching.
The security guard opened the handbag in front of everyone and immediately revealed a black velvet box inside, which was exactly the same as the box Mrs. Xia used to store the ancestral green jade.
Everyone was shocked and looked at Shen Xining with burning eyes.
Shen Xining shook her head in panic, "No, no, I don't know."
"Young Madam, how can you do such a thing? Aren't you making Third Master lose face?" Zheng Nianyao sighed emotionally, but her eyes were full of smiles.
Shen Xining saw Zheng Nianyao so proud and suddenly remembered that Zheng Nianyao bumped into her and snatched her handbag from her in the washroom.
She immediately understood that all of this was just Zheng Nianyao's trick.
Suddenly, Han Shaozhe walked out of the crowd and grabbed Shen Xining's hand. He sincerely said, "Sorry... Muxue, there are so many people. If you lower your head and admit your mistake, I will help you. Don't worry."
"I, I didn't! Why did you have to admit your mistake?" Shen Xining pulled her hand back and looked angrily at Han Shaozhe. "You, you don't believe me either?"
She and Han Shaozhe had been friends for so many years, but Han Shaozhe did not believe her.
"No, I just want to help you." Han Shaozhe explained.
At this moment, Su Ci came forward and gloomily pushed Han Shaozhe away. "My people need your help?"
Su Ci's powerful and restrained deterrent force made Han Shaozhe involuntarily want to lower his head and shrink his neck.
Han Shaozhe pursed his lips, not saying a single word.
Zheng Nianyao saw this and pressed her chest down. She walked to Su Ci's side and said gently, "Third Master, you can't let her go just because she is your wife. There are so many people watching."
Zheng Nianyao deliberately stirred up the desire of the crowd to watch the show. In fact, she was putting pressure on Su Ci.
Shen Xining looked at Su Ci in panic and shook her hand hard. "It's really not me!"
Su Ci narrowed his eyes and glanced at Zheng Nianyao again, "You want to teach me how to do things?"
Zheng Nianyao's body froze and her beautiful face could not maintain any smile. She pulled the corner of her mouth. "Three. Third Master, after all, we are so familiar with each other. Naturally, I am thinking of you."
"I am not familiar with you." Su Ci tore Zheng Nianyao's face in front of everyone. He walked past her and looked at the security guard who was holding the black velvet box." Open it. "
The security guard was stunned for a moment. He carefully opened it, afraid that he would damage the expensive ancestral green inside.
In the end... the box was actually empty.
Su Ci went forward to take the box and asked Zheng Nianyao, "Just based on an empty box?"
Zheng Nianyao looked at the box in disbelief.
This was impossible! Before she put the box in, she confirmed that the ancestral green was inside. How could it be gone?
Su Yina also stood up and supported Shen Xining, "There are so many boxes in the same box. How can it prove that this box contains Mrs. Xia's ancestral mother jade? Furthermore, they did not even finish searching. How can they sentence my Muxue's crime?"
Su Ci looked at the security guards. The security guards immediately continued to search others respectfully.
Finally, the security guard shook his head at Mrs. Van. "Madam, no."
"Wait a minute. There is still one person that you did not investigate." Su Ci put his hands in his pockets and said coldly.
The security guard looked at Zheng Nianyao, who was the only one who had not been searched. He felt that there should not be anyone stupid enough to suggest searching after stealing something, right?
"I am the young mistress of Zheng family. What can't I afford? Do I need to steal some ancestral jade? My horizons aren't that low. " Zheng Nianyao was so angry that she forgot to maintain her image.
"Miss Zheng, pay attention to your words. I am indeed a small family. I am not as rich as your Zheng family." Mrs. Xia angrily glared at Zheng Nianyao.
Actually, the Xia Family and the Zheng family were equally matched. In some aspects, they were even slightly better.
Zheng Nianyao knew that she had said something wrong, so she could only bite her lip and pretend to be calm.
The security guard immediately walked in front of Zheng Nianyao and said in a gentlemanly manner, "Sorry, Miss Zheng."
Zheng Nianyao put on airs and looked away, "Go ahead and search. What am I afraid of?"
The security guard opened the exquisite and small handbag and the things inside were clear at a glance. Other than the lipstick for makeup, a wrinkled tissue attracted Mrs. Xia's attention.
Mrs. Xia quickly walked forward and took out a tissue. When she opened it, the top grade ancestral green appeared in front of everyone.
"Miss Zheng, how do you want to explain?"
"Me! This is impossible! I clearly placed the Ancestral Green..." Zheng Nianyao was quick to speak and when she realized it, it was already too late to cover her mouth.
Mrs. Xia clenched the Ancestral Mother Green in her hand and looked at Zheng Nianyao angrily, "Miss Zheng, I hope that your parents can give me a reasonable explanation. Otherwise, I will not let your Zheng family go!"
"Mrs. Xia, it is not me. It really is not me. You have misunderstood!" When Zheng Nianyao heard that they were going to take responsibility, she was so scared that she cried.
She was a superstar. If this kind of thing was spread out, her family and career would be ruined.
Shen Xining stuck her head out from behind Su Ci and looked at everything in front of her in surprise. Zheng Nianyao could not possibly put the ancestral mother green on her. What was going on?
Thinking about it, Su Ci raised his hand and flicked her head.
"Let's see if you still dare to drink."
... ""
It's him! It had to be him! Other than Su Ci, no one else could be so ignorant as to put the Ancestral Mother Green back into Zheng Nianyao's bag.
He was so powerful.
Shen Xining looked up at this handsome man who could do anything. Her heart was beating too fast.
Su Ci did not look at her. He just raised his slender fingers and pressed them on her forehead. He turned around and said, "Let's watch the show."
Only then did Shen Xining realize that she was too focused on Su Ci and was discovered.
Her gaze once again fell on Zheng Nianyao. She thought that with the conclusive evidence, Zheng Nianyao would at least lower her head and apologize. She did not expect Zheng Nianyao to actually pull out her assistant.
"Say, was it you who did this? Usually, I dislike that I am harsh on you, but now I actually want to frame you."
Zheng Nianyao threateningly looked at the assistant. The assistant's face was pale, and his face was red from holding in his breath.
The assistant bowed to the crowd. "Sorry, Miss Zheng. I was wrong. I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again."
Zheng Nianyao let out a sigh of relief and apologized to Mrs. Xia but her tone was very perfunctory, "Mrs. Xia is sorry. I will definitely discipline the assistant. Why don't I pay for the jewelry that you like today?"
"No need. Miss Zheng, please take care of yourself." Mrs. Xia spoke unhappily.1
Anyone with discerning eyes would know that this assistant was just a scapegoat. Even if she was severely punished, it would be meaningless. Instead, she would fall out with the Zheng family.
Mrs. Van immediately tried to smooth things over, "Since it is a misunderstanding, why don't we invite everyone to the banquet and raise our cups. I sincerely thank everyone for coming."
Everyone raised their glasses.
After the jewelry exhibition ended, Shen Xining followed Su Ci and Su Yina back to the hotel.
Su Yina tiredly returned to her room to rest.
Shen Xining followed Su Ci's footsteps. Her mind was always wondering when the Ancestral Green was replaced.
She thought about it but did not realize that Su Ci had already stopped walking. She directly hit his back and even flicked her head.
She covered her head and took a step back. She twisted her high heels. "Ah!"
Luckily, Su Ci reacted quickly and carried her horizontally.
Su Ci frowned. He looked at her red and swollen feet with a trace of displeasure on his handsome face.
"You almost fell when you came out of the bathroom. I touched your handbag when I helped you up. The weight is not right."
... "" That's it?
"Do you understand now?"
"Yes.." Shen Xining replied softly. Suddenly, her expression was very strange as she asked softly, "Third, Third Master San, you know how to read minds?"
Why did he know what she was thinking every time?
"It's you who is too stupid."
Shen Xining's small face wrinkled when she heard that.
Su Ci smiled.
