Xia Wan looked completely bewildered, her face full of innocence, as if she knew nothing: "I only put a small thing there. Maybe Guo Guanghua already had these hidden in his house? Is this just a coincidence?"
As she spoke, she silently prayed that she wouldn't be found out, since she had taken all these things from the system, and admitting it would cause even more inexplicable trouble.
A hint of nervousness flickered in her eyes, but she tried her best to remain calm, attempting to deceive Xia Xiong with her innocent expression.
Hearing her say that, Xia Xiong didn't doubt it. After all, it was indeed unbelievable that a young girl could move more than a dozen antiques into Guo Guanghua's house without being discovered. He shook his head inwardly, thinking that it might really just be a coincidence.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes, as if he could already see the day Zhao Guodong would be brought to justice.
It was a look of determination and confidence, as if declaring to the world that justice may be delayed, but it will never be absent.
