Chapter 112: Wrongfully Accuse a Good Person
In order to protect one daughter, the mother was trying to make her other daughter the scapegoat?
Perhaps she’s a...stepmother?
Yun Ziling looked at the blue-blood son of the Jiang family, Jiang Henglin. Her eyes were filled with tears of grievance. She bit her lip and with her red eyes she looked really pitiful.
“Young Marshal Jiang, I really didn’t steal your watch. Someone planted it and tried to frame me. I really didn’t do anything...”
Jiang Henglin glanced at the pitiful Yun Ziling, who appeared so gentle and fragile. She reminded him of the girl he’d first loved, and his heart was moved.
Yun Xi narrowed her eyes and looked at the two of them with a slight smirk on her lips.
It seemed that Jiang Henglin still loved the fragile and high-maintenance type of girls such as Yun Ziling. Just like he had in his last life.
It was probably because of the damage his first love had inflicted on him, to the extent that from then onward, all the girls that appealed to him bore the shadow of his first love.
It seems as if it isn’t necessarily a good thing for men to be too sentimental and devoted.
“I believe you.” Jiang Henglin nodded at her, then turned to look at the accused Yun Xi.
Her mother had called her Yun Xi. Could she be the same Yun Xi who was engaged to him?
He glanced at her place card on the table, and the name written on it was indeed Yun Xi. It seemed that he hadn’t mistaken her.
Frowning, he quickly retracted his gaze.
At first glance, he didn’t like this girl.
She wasn’t unattractive, but she seemed to have a prickly personality and an air of arrogance.
This kind of girl was too pretentious in his eyes, and the fragile and pleasant girl was more pleasing.
In particular, because they had been engaged since they were both babies, he had been relentlessly made fun of by his group of childhood friends, so this was something that drove him mad.
Obviously, it was their family who were social climbing, but now it seemed as if there was some kind of matrilocal thinking going on. How despicable!
The manager glanced at Jiang Henglin to see what his intentions were.
Jiang Henglin raised his eyebrows, and his face had a mischievous expression. “Since they say the evidence is in her bag, then check it! You can’t wrongfully accuse a good person.”
As he said this, he playfully smiled at Liang Xiuqin and Yun Ziling.
Although the watch had been found, since even her own mother was accusing her, who knew whether or not she’d planted it on her sister?
He really wanted to see if she was really above it all or merely faking it.
When Liang Xiuqin saw that Young Master Jiang didn’t help that wretched girl Yun Xi, but stood by their side, she was suddenly bursting with confidence.
She seemed to forget that Yun Xi was still her daughter.
For some reason, their glory and ruin were intertwined.
“In order not to wrongly accuse innocent people, check as much as you like.”
Being stared at by so many people, Yun Xi smiled nonchalantly, then picked up her handbag, and opened it for the manager.
Her swift movements were indicative of a guilt-free conscience.
Liang Xiuqin and Yun Ziling glanced at each other, then they both looked at Liang Xinyi, who had put the jade seal in Yun Xi’s handbag. Liang Xinyi nodded at them.
Just wait!
As soon as the jade seal was found, Yun Xi would be treated as the culprit who’d framed Yun Ziling.
This situation they were facing would be resolved.
The manager emptied out her handbag, but found no evidence of stolen goods. He raised his head and shook it at Jiang Henglin.
“Nothing at all? I don’t know what evidence of framing that the mother is referring to?”
“Nothing? Impossible! I clearly saw the Longyun Jade Seal, the final auction item, in her bag! How could it not be there?”
As soon as Liang Xiuqin said this, the originally quiet banquet hall started buzzing again.
“Don’t talk nonsense. The Longyun Jade Seal is still in the storage room. We just checked it!”
The manager was at a loss for words as he looked at Liang Xiuqin, who was indiscriminately throwing people under the bus, and his face was full of impatience. “Don’t change the subject. Your daughter has stolen a watch, and you’re trying to pin the blame on your other daughter?”
He had never seen a mother like her before. Even a stepmother wouldn’t be so shameless, would she?
