Chapter 34 Jiang Xiaoyu steals things?
"Excuse me."
The man apologized and left.
Qiao Qingci frowned and wanted to say something, but Jiang Xiaoyu pulled him back, "It's okay with me, I didn't mean it."
Qiao Qingci didn't say much.
They sat together to eat. Qiao Qingci keenly noticed that Jiang Xiaoyu's pockets were bulging. He narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "What's in your pocket?"
"Nothing." Jiang Xiaoyu blinked.
However, when Qiao Qingci took out a ring from her pocket, Jiang Xiaoyu was completely stunned.
"This, this is not mine." Jiang Xiaoyu panicked.
Qiao Qingci quietly took the ring into his hand, narrowed his eyes and looked at the people on the field. Soon, he had a plan in his mind: "Of course it's not yours. Wait here for me for a while."
Qiao Qingci left for a moment and came back.
"What were you doing? Where's the ring?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked curiously.
"nothing."
They had just finished saying this when suddenly, a scream came from the field: "My ring is gone!"
It’s Lin Xiaoxiao.
Lin Xiaoxiao's face was filled with anxiety, and she even cried, "That ring is a family heirloom my grandma gave me. Woo woo woo!"
"Oh my God, I know this ring is priceless, how could it suddenly disappear?"
"When I came in, I put my ring down in the bathroom to wash my hands, and I forgot to take it back. I just went to look for it and found it's missing." Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes were red.
The others also joined in to help her look for it, but they couldn't find it.
Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly looked at Jiang Xiaoyu.
"Everyone here is either rich or noble. I don't think anyone would do such a thing. However, Qiao Qingci's friend... seems to be an ordinary person."
Her words drew everyone's attention.
Jiang Xiaoyu's outfit was indeed very ordinary on the court.
Jiang Xiaoyu didn't expect to face such a situation, and hurriedly said: "I didn't take it, I didn't even see it."
"I saw you go to the bathroom!" a socialite said, "How could you not see it? You're lying!"
"Please give me my ring!"
Lin Xiaoxiao walked up to Jiang Xiaoyu, her eyes red. "If you took something else from me, I wouldn't hold you responsible for Qiao Qingci's sake, but that ring was given to me by my grandmother before she passed away. I can't give it to you!"
"I didn't take it!" Jiang Xiaoyu argued loudly, her face flushed red.
Qiao Qingci also had a cold face: "What evidence do you have to prove that she took it?"
"She's the only ordinary person at the scene. No one else would touch my ring." Lin Xiaoxiao frowned and said as a matter of course, "She's never seen such a beautiful and valuable ring before, so she was greedy and wanted to take it for herself. It's understandable, but now that I've discovered it, just take out my ring! For Qiao Qingci's sake, I won't do anything to you!"
These words directly labeled Jiang Xiaoyu as a thief.
The other guests were also paying attention to this matter and frowned at Jiang Xiaoyu.
"She's the only one who could do such a thing."
"I didn't expect that the real daughter's friend would be so dirty!"
"You are who you are, and your friends are who they are. A real daughter wouldn't have been like this before, would she?"
Everyone speculated that among wealthy families, the people they despised the most were thieves.
Just now they thought Qiao Qingci was glamorous, but at this moment, their impression of her suddenly changed drastically, and they even felt a little disgusted.
Qiao Wenya also came out and gently smoothed things over: "Qingci, I know you don't want to embarrass your friend, but Xiaoxiao has already said that she won't hold your friend responsible. You should let your friend bring it out. You are now the daughter of the Qiao family, so you can help your friend more in the future and ask her not to do this kind of thing again."
"I didn't!" Jiang Xiaoyu held her breath, her eyes red. "You guys are going too far. Are you going to convict me just because I'm dressed like an ordinary person?"
Qiao Wenya sighed helplessly and said to Lin Xiaoxiao, "How about we deal with this matter after it's over?"
Lin Xiaoxiao was a little reluctant, "Okay."
Everyone saw this and their favorable impression of Qiao Wenya suddenly increased: "Wenya still knows how to behave."
"Wen Ya has always been very kind. This is probably because she doesn't want to embarrass Qiao Qingci. Growing up in the countryside is different from growing up in a wealthy family."
Qiao Qingci sneered in his heart. This Qiao Wenya was really calculating. With just a few words, she made everyone think that Jiang Xiaoyu had stolen it.
Qiao Yanfei and others also noticed it and came to ask what was going on.
Qiao Wenya quickly recounted what had happened.
Qiao Qingci sneered: "Qiao Wenya, are you so anxious to confirm that it was my friend who stole it?"
Qiao Wenya looked very anxious: "Sister, please don't misunderstand me. I didn't say that. It's just that we should wait until the banquet is over before dealing with this matter. Don't delay your family recognition banquet."
"I said, she didn't steal Lin Xiaoxiao's ring!" Qiao Qingci said word by word.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't expect that even though she had given Qiao Qingci face, she was still so stubborn. She was really from the countryside and was so ignorant.
"Okay, then do you dare let us search you? If we can't find the ring, I'll apologize to her personally!" Lin Xiaoxiao said directly, "But if we find the ring, I'll call the police!"
