Chapter 35

At those words, the entire audience was in an uproar!

How could there be a thief in such a high-profile charity auction?

It was simply unbelievable.

A malicious glint flashed across Liu Yiyi’s eyes.

In front of everyone, she pointed at Gu Wan’an and said slowly, “The thief is her, Shen Ziqing!!”

Instantly, the scene exploded with a bang.

At once, everyone’s gaze turned to Gu Wan’an, and they began to discuss animatedly.

In the VIP room on the second floor.

Han Wenhao, who was originally drowsy, instantly became excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

With a jolt, he sat up. Then, he took out his phone, logged into WeChat, and opened a video call.

All the movements were done in one go.

However, the beeping sound kept echoing, but no one picked up.

“F*ck! Dropping the ball at the critical moment, pick up!” He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

The next second, Gong Mingye appeared on the screen with a cold expression.

Han Wenhao beamed with joy.

He raised his phone high and found the best angle. While munching on melon seeds, he aimed the camera at the banquet hall.

Gu Wan’an frowned and said coldly, “Spreading rumors is enough to constitute defamation. You say that I stole Zhou Shutong’s necklace, do you have any evidence?”

“When we were rehearsing our lines in the lounge, Shutong and I went to the bathroom halfway and you were the only one left in the lounge. If you didn’t steal it, then who did?” Liu Yiyi raised her chin with a confident expression.

Hearing this, the male host turned to look at Zhou Shutong, who had been silent all this while.

“Miss Zhou, are you sure you lost the necklace in the lounge?”

Zhou Shutong’s face was pale, and her tone was very solemn. “My necklace was indeed lost in the lounge. However, there might be some misunderstanding in the middle. It could also be that I was too careless and accidentally dropped it in a corner of the lounge. Miss Shen doesn’t look like that kind of person, I believe her.”

“Heh…” Gu Wan’an sneered silently.

As expected of a pro among green tea fighters.

On the surface, she seemed to be speaking up for her, but in secret, it made people’s imaginations run wild.

As expected, the people in the banquet hall began to discuss animatedly. They looked at Gu Wan’an with disdain and malice.

“Shutong, you still dare to believe her? We turned the place upside down during our break just now, but we couldn’t find the necklace, okay?” Liu Yiyi was indignant and continued, “Shen Ziqing, do you admit that you stole the necklace?”

Gu Wan’an raised her eyebrows and said, “I don’t admit it.”

“Are you sure?”

“Of course.”

That’s what I was waiting for!

Liu Yiyi’s eyes lit up and she pushed aggressively, “Since you’re so sure, do you dare to let someone search your bag? Prove your innocence. How about it? Do you dare or not?”

Gu Wan’an found it funny. “You want to search my bag, that’s an invasion of privacy. Do you understand?”

Zhou Shutong was secretly delighted, but she put on a troubled expression and said softly, “Yiyi, how can you search someone else’s bag in public? This is too impolite. Besides, it might not be Miss Shen who stole it. Let’s forget it.”

“Since you didn’t steal it, why don’t you dare to let people search it? Isn’t it because you have a guilty conscience?” Liu Yiyi picked up the microphone and raised the volume. Her voice was loud enough for everyone in the banquet hall to hear her clearly. “I advise you to take the initiative to let people search. That way, everyone will save effort. Otherwise, don’t blame us for using force!”
