“Did it fall out of the side pocket?” Tong Yao asked.
Guo Miao was carrying a backpack, and the two largest pockets were zipped. The bracelet must have fallen out of the side pocket.
Anyone who used their brain to think would not put stolen things in the side pocket.
Su Ning felt a little guilty, but she could not show her fear at this time. Otherwise, it would be obvious that she was framing Guo Miao.
She braced herself and said, “Yes, it fell out of the side pocket.”
“Since it’s stolen, it should have been placed in a more secretive place. It shouldn’t have been put here where others can see it, right?”
A cold voice rang out.
“Moreover, the engagement you mentioned just now has not been confirmed yet. It’s just a joke between your parents. I didn’t expect you to take it seriously, Miss Su Ning.”
Su Ning raised her head in surprise and looked behind Guo Miao.
No one knew when Tong Pei had appeared behind Guo Miao. That sentence was uttered by Tong Pei.
Su Ning’s heart was instantly filled with jealousy.
Why would Tong Pei speak up for Guo Miao?
And he completely denied the engagement just like that. Su Ning felt a sharp pain in her heart. It turned out that Tong Pei did not care about their engagement at all.
“Tong Pei, this was something I gave to Grandma. Now, it has been taken away without any reason. I was only protecting my own interests.” Su Ning looked up at Tong Pei. “Even if there’s no engagement, the guest you brought stole the gift I gave Grandma. How are you going to explain it?”
“What right do you have to say that I took your things?”Guo Miao asked coldly.
“This bracelet fell out of your bag. Are you saying you didn’t steal it?” Su Ning asked.
Guo Miao looked at her and said coldly, “Do you think it’s necessary for me to steal a fake bracelet?”
All the guests were shocked.
A fake bracelet?
Su Ning frowned. “How is that possible? I bought this from a jewelry store at a high price. How can it be fake?”
“There should be a professional jewelry appraiser in Beijing, right? Why don’t we find a jewelry appraiser to appraise it?” Guo Miao said.
Tong Ling frowned and looked at Guo Miao. Guo Miao didn’t seem to be flustered as if she had a well-thought-out plan for this matter. Could this bracelet really be a fake?
“You’re talking nonsense. You must be feeling guilty because you stole the bracelet, right?” Su Ning stared at Guo Miao.
The guests present also began to discuss animatedly.
“Could Miss Guo have really stolen the bracelet?”
“The Sus don’t seem like the kind of family that would buy a fake bracelet to fool people.”
“Previously, the Sus were still talking about the engagement between the two children. It seems that it’s not true.”
Everyone’s discussion made Su Ning even angrier.
Previously, there were still many people trying to curry favor with her because of the engagement. How did it turn out like this now?
“I’m here today on behalf of my parents to celebrate Great-grandma’s birthday. The congratulatory gift I brought was stolen, and now you’re saying that the thing I brought is fake. Is this how your family treats guests?” Su Ning said with a frown.
This bracelet must not be inspected today.
If they really found out that it was fake, the relationship between the Sus and the Tongs would definitely deteriorate, and there would definitely be no further developments in her engagement with Tong Pei.
“I don’t know why you insist on pushing this matter to me, Miss Su. However, since you insist that I stole the bracelet, I want to know what evidence you have,” Guo Miao asked.
“Isn’t what the servant said just now evidence?” Su Ning looked at Guo Miao and said. “It’s impossible to enter that room casually. You must have taken the bracelet.”
Guo Miao looked at Su Ning and said, “You probably don’t know that there’s a surveillance camera in the room where the bracelet was placed just now, do you?”
Su Ning’s mouth widened in surprise.
She had been to the Tong family’s old residence many times, but why had she never heard of surveillance cameras in the old residence?
Tong Pei glanced at Guo Miao and instantly understood what she meant.
“There are surveillance cameras in that room, but it’s a secret. Because it’s a family matter, we didn’t tell anyone..”
