Li Lingyang curled his lips into a cold smile and said loudly, "Would someone who owns the entire mine risk being caught and steal a piece of raw stone in public?"
There was silence at the entrance of the small exhibition hall for a few seconds, and then it exploded.
"Ning Yichu has a mine? Isn't she a jade carver? Where did she get the money to buy the mine?"
"The Addis Ababa mine is rich in ice-type jade. Because its texture is so perfect, sometimes a piece can even be sold for tens of millions on the black market. If Ning Yichu is really the owner of the mine, there is really no need for him to do such a thing."
"But how do you explain the rough stones in her bag?"
"Are you jealous? He has a mine, so what's wrong with carrying a piece of raw stone in his bag when he goes out?"
"Even though she owns the mine, that doesn't prove she didn't steal the raw stones, right? Don't rich people always have some quirks..."
“…”
Opinions on the matter were polarized.
Andy froze in place.
Ning Yichu was also confused. When did she have a mine?
How come I haven't heard anything about this so-called 'mine owner'?
Her beautiful eyes were filled with astonishment, and she looked a little silly and cute. Li Lingyang looked at her lovely appearance, his starry eyes flickered with a slight smile, and his thin lips curled up.
Special Assistant Xu explained, "Ms. Ning, our president recently acquired the Addis Ababa mine and directly gifted it to you—"
"In other words, you already have a mine of raw stones."
Ning Yichu, "..."
Is Li Lingyang crazy?
What a joke!
Andy's eyebrows twitched several times, and after a while he finally spoke, "This...this turned out to be a misunderstanding. Now that the original stone has been found, let's just let it go."
Ning Yichu understood the deeper meaning in Andy's words. On the surface, she was saying that she would not pursue the matter, but in fact, she was hinting in a sinister way that it was she who stole the raw stone that was loaned out for exhibition!
"If the museum's original stone is really missing, then the thief must still be at the scene. Since Miss Andy refuses to adjust the surveillance, let everyone at the scene walk through the infrared door. Then the truth will naturally come to light!"
Andy choked and said nothing.
Li Lingyang said in a mocking tone, "Didn't Ms. Andy want to track down the thieves? Why are you backing off now?"
Andy was forced to cooperate, "Then... then I'll listen to Mr. Li."
The other exhibition guests quickly lined up and walked out one by one. Everyone was very curious about who stole the rough stone. However, to everyone's surprise, all the people who attended the exhibition had left and the alarm did not sound.
In this case, the most suspicious person is Ning Yichu...
Andy smiled slightly, "Mr. Li, look, I said this was just a misunderstanding, so let's just leave it at that."
Li Lingyang raised his thin lips in contempt, staring at her as if he wanted to see through her.
"Miss Andy, it seems like you haven't come out of it yet?"
"You suspect me?" Andy was panicking, but his face remained righteous. "Boss Li, I'm an employee here. How could I possibly be stealing from an employer?!"
"Whether you stole it or not, wouldn't you know if you just go over and try it?"
Li Lingyang unconditionally stood by Ning Yichu and said coldly, "Assistant Xu, help her."
"What are you doing? You are violating the will of the citizens. Security, stop them quickly."
Seeing the bodyguard coming to hold her up, Andy felt guilty and sweat covered her forehead, but the bodyguard remained indifferent.
After all, how can a small person in charge compare with investors?
The bodyguards under Xu Te's assistant had no such concept as mercy and gentleness. They simply grabbed her arm and dragged her over.
As soon as Andy touched the infrared ray, the alarm sounded again.
"Drip drip drip—"
Ning Yichu's pupils tightened. Sure enough, her suspicion was correct. The icy jadeite was indeed on Andy!
All the jade carvers were also stunned. After all this time, it turned out that this person in charge was the one who cried "stop thief"!
"So, she is deliberately framing Master Ning Jade Carver?"
"This woman is so vicious! She was pretending to be so hypocritical for a long time, and I didn't even suspect her."
"I think the person who should be sent to the police station is Andy!"
“…”
Hearing these voices, Andy was so ashamed that his face turned pale and red. It was very exciting.
When she was inspecting the museum earlier, she accidentally saw the jadeite raw stones worth 5 million US dollars in Ning Yichu's bag. She felt jealous and envious, and a bold plan came to her mind.
Andy first took advantage of his position to cut the surveillance line, and then put the jadeite raw stone into his pocket while no one was paying attention.
Then, he and Ning Yichu ran out of the infrared alarm device door one after another, using Ning Yichu to clear himself of suspicion...
She originally wanted to search out the raw stones in Ning Yichu's bag and go to the police station to take the blame for herself.
Everything went smoothly at first, but no one could have imagined that Li Lingyang was actually backing this damn woman, and in the end, everything fell apart...
She was really unwilling to accept it!
Andy was pinned to the ground by the security guard, who found the jadeite rough stone in her pocket.
"Notify the organizer and send him to the police station." Ning Yichu's disgust for her reached its peak at this moment, and he spoke directly to the security guard.
"Yes, Miss Ning!"
The bodyguard immediately agreed and took Andy away.
The matter has been settled, the jade carvers have left one after another, and the museum has a new person in charge, who is closely monitoring the situation to prevent such incidents from happening again.
Ning Yichu glanced at the man in front of her with mixed feelings, and was about to walk away with a cold face.
But who would have thought that just as she took a step, he grabbed her wrist!
"Chu Chu!"
Li Lingyang couldn't bear to watch her leave him again.
Ning Yichu's steps paused, and the frost on his face grew even thicker.
"Li Lingyang, we're not that familiar yet. Please call me Miss Ning, and—"
She paused, then turned her head and continued, "I don't need your mine either. Please take it back!"
Li Lingyang's heart suddenly ached, and his expression suddenly turned ugly. After a few seconds of silence, he pursed his lips and spoke.
"I know I hurt your heart before. I didn't recognize Shen Jiangqing's true face, and made you and the children suffer so much. But Chen Bao and Ning Ning are both our children. Can you bear to watch them lose their father?"
Ning Yichu's expression changed slightly, "I don't understand what you are saying!"
"I've already done my research. Chen Bao and Ning Ning are not a couple at all. Chen Bao is not an orphan abandoned in an orphanage, and Ning Ning is not your child with another child. You are the woman from five years ago. Our blood flows in their bodies!"
Ning Yichu's heart sank and he felt a little flustered.
She knew it, she knew it couldn't be hidden...
He mentioned the two children as soon as he appeared. Is he trying to snatch the custody of the children from her?
