Chapter 14 is just a joke of the Jiang family.
Everyone looked at me strangely. I looked at Wang Yingzhi calmly with a smile on my face. After all, she was a woman from a wealthy family. I didn't expect that in order to get Huang Minwei in, she would use such despicable means to frame me.
Suddenly, I felt a chill on the back of my neck. I turned around and saw that Jiang Yichen had already pulled the necklace off my neck. With an angry look on his face, he reached out to grab the necklace back, but Jiang Yichen took a few steps back.
"This is mine, give it back to me." I looked at her coldly.
"Hehe, this is the necklace I bought for my aunt."
"Have you ever seen such a stupid thief? After stealing the necklace, he didn't hide it secretly, but hung it around his neck openly?" I looked at her.
Jiang Yichen was speechless. The other socialites still looked like they were enjoying the show. They didn't care about the truth of the matter.
"Maybe you did it on purpose, hanging it around your neck so you can claim it's yours. But let me tell you, I bought this necklace for three hundred thousand yuan, and a poor person like you can't afford it." Jiang Yichen looked at me with dignity.
"You're not stealing it or anything? Can you afford it?"
My face turned pale and I tried hard to suppress the anger in my heart, telling myself that even if I was of humble status, I still had the dignity I deserved.
"I can't afford it, but this necklace is definitely mine. It has the word cy engraved on it."
Jiang Yichen looked at the necklace and quickly looked up at Jiang Ting, with a look of pleading for help in his eyes.
"Yi Chen, return the necklace to her. Yu Xiaowan, I'm very curious, how did you get this necklace?" Jiang Ting looked at me. I have to say, she is a shrewd woman. Not only did she change the subject, she also easily covered up the fact that Jiang Yi Chen and Wang Yingzhi framed me, making everyone present wonder how a person of such humble status like me could have such a valuable necklace.
Jiang Yichen didn't return the necklace to me. She repeated her mother's words and waited for my answer.
"That's because I bought a replica."
I still clearly remember when Chen Xi put this necklace around my neck, he said that he didn’t have the money to buy me a real one now, but he would definitely work hard and make sure we could live a happy life in the future.
When you love someone, you won’t care whether the gift he or she gives you is rare or cheap. What’s more, this is the only thing Chen Xi left me.
"Give me back the necklace." I looked at her coldly.
Jiang Yichen sniffed at my answer and said, "It turns out it's a fake."
"If it's a fake, then what are you wearing?" She threw the necklace into the fountain beside her with a wave of her hand, and I rushed forward and pushed her away like crazy.
"That's my stuff, what right do you have to throw it away?" I yelled at her.
I hurriedly stepped into the fountain, bent down and started looking for my necklace with red eyes. The water in the pool was cold to my heart. Sometimes, the more anxious people are, the harder it is to find it.
"Isn't it just a fake? If it is, I'll compensate you a hundred yuan. Aunt, I'm sleepy." Jiang Yichen said.
Wang Yingzhi walked to the edge of the pool and looked at me angrily.
"Since it's worthless, don't embarrass yourself here. Come out quickly. I'll buy you eight or ten when I get home."
I was not in the mood to pay attention to Wang Yingzhi at the moment. I just wanted to find my necklace as soon as possible.
"It's getting late and I'm very tired. Let's get together next time." Jiang Ting said to the socialites.
When I found the necklace, I discovered that Wang Yingzhi was still standing by the pool, looking at me angrily.
"You've completely lost my face today."
I walked out wet and looked at her.
"Mom, if you want to punish me, there's no need to do it in front of others. If others see it, it will only make the Jiang family a laughing stock."
