“Mom, there’s the evidence. Are you still going to try to make me take the blame for Yun Ziling?”

“How could this happen? It’s impossible!”

Liang Xiuqin stared at the jade seal in the brocade box. She’d definitely handed it to Liang Xinyi personally, so how could it have been returned?

Liang Xinyi had wanted to stay in Jingdu, so she had dared not disobey her.

If that wretched girl Yun Xi had somehow put it back, it would have been impossible to do it so quietly, let alone without anyone realizing it.

She has just returned from the countryside, so she didn’t have any connections yet, and there was no way she was conspiring with the manager.

If it wasn’t her, then who was it...?

Who was it who was framing them?

“Mom, I didn’t steal the watch. It really wasn’t me...”

Despite the hard evidence, Yun Ziling clenched her hands and shook her head desperately.

She couldn’t admit anything. She hadn’t done anything at all.

If she was found guilty of theft today, there would be no hope for her to fraternize with upper-class society in the future.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Turning her head, she looked at Yun Xi, who was acting as if it had nothing to do with her. No matter how stupid she might be, she definitely didn’t believe that all this had happened by accident.

Her mother had tried to frame Yun Xi, but she’d never expected her plan to backfire on her instead.

If Yun Xi had done nothing..., she didn’t believe that for a second!

It must have been her. She had framed her!

“Sister, why are you framing me? I’ve never done anything wrong toward you. You framed me just to ruin my reputation. What good does it do for you?”

“You keep saying that I framed you, but you haven’t come up with any evidence. It’s obvious that you made a mistake, but you want to make me the scapegoat. Yun Ziling, do you think everyone’s so blind? The high heels on the surveillance footage are yours. If you have any doubts, I’m not afraid of another round of inspection.”

With that, she turned sideways slightly and moved her legs from under the table.

Lifting up the hem of her dress, she revealed a pair of white flat shoes under the dress.

She was able to prove her innocence so easily because of Young Marshal Mu’s engineer hacker.

Although it seemed like that footage had been overlooked when editing, in fact, the surveillance footage of the shoes was deliberately added to make it seem that way.

Young Marshal Mu really didn’t show any mercy at all when carrying out his vendetta.

“The gown on Yun Ziling seems to be Ling Jing’s design. Could it also have been stolen?” Someone among the guests suddenly commented.

Almost Immediately, everyone turned their attention toward Yun Ziling.

Yun Ziling was just about to explain herself when she suddenly remembered how she’d smugly gloated about it in front of all those socialites, so explaining it now would be like slapping herself in the face.

Upon being talked about, Ling Jing felt a kick under the table from Mu Feichi, so he had no choice but to stand up and walk over to where the guests were discussing his dress..

As soon as he walked over, the socialites all started frantically fawning on him.

“Ling Jing, did she steal this gown?”

“It doesn’t look like she can afford one of your high-end gowns, so she must have stolen it as well!”

Ling Jing smirked and glanced at Yun Ziling, who wore his gown so terribly, then he frowned.

“If taking without the owner’s consent counts as stealing, then I guess so.”

With realization dawning on their faces, the socialites gazed at Yun Ziling with disdain and contempt in their eyes.

They had been wondering how someone like her could have gotten Ling Jing’s design, but now it turned out that she had stolen it also.

How utterly shameless!

“No...it wasn’t like that...the gown is really...”

Before Yun Ziling had finished speaking, Jiang Wanyun couldn’t stand it anymore and interrupted her.

“Now that I know what’s been going on, manager, call the police! Let the police come over! The auction will proceed as planned!”

Yun Ziling’s mind was being blown again and again. How could Yun Xi be such a despicable sister!

When Jiang Wanyun thought of how outrageous Liang Xiuqin was, she actually wasn’t that surprised that she had such a daughter.

“No...Madame Chen, I didn’t do it! I don’t want to go to the police station!”

Yun Ziling and Liang Xiuqin had panicked when they’d heard that someone was calling the police.

Yun Ziling looked toward Jiang Henglin with panic and helplessness in her eyes, and she desperately asked for his help, “Second Young Master, it wasn’t me, it really wasn’t me...”
