The task of finding the bracelet was entrusted to Bai Kangyan.
He and Bai Xiruo searched the room carefully, but still couldn't find the bracelet.
Bai Kangyan fell into deep thought.
Besides the five members of the Bai family, there is also Aunt Liu, two security guards on shift, and a gardener.
Apart from Aunt Liu, the other three people usually don't enter the main house.
Aunt Liu is an elder in the Bai family. Even during the years when the family settled abroad, Aunt Liu stayed by their side.
The Bai family treated her well, and she was very loyal to the Bai family.
Therefore, there was no reason for Liu Ma to steal a bracelet.
So, who stole the bracelet?
The more Bai Kangyan thought about it, the more doubts he felt.
His knowing gaze swept over everyone: "So far, who has gone up to the second floor?"
Aunt Liu stepped forward voluntarily.
"Sir, only I, Miss Xi Ruo, and Miss Qian Mo went up to the second floor today."
Upon hearing her name on the list, Bai Qianmo remained indifferent, appearing as if it were none of her business.
Han Songyan glanced at Bai Qianmo thoughtfully. In her mind, Bai Qianmo was more suspicious than Liu Ma.
After all, this girl has dropped out of school, had a puppy love relationship, and sold counterfeit goods.
It's quite possible that vanity got the better of him and he stole the bracelet.
Bai Kangyan looked at Bai Qianmo with a deep gaze.
"Qianmo, what did you do when you went upstairs?"
Bai Qianmo slightly lifted her eyelids and glanced at Bai Kangyan with a half-smile.
Her beautiful eyes didn't show much emotion.
He replied casually, "Rest."
Bai Kangyan stared intently into those calm eyes, and could not see a trace of tension or panic in them.
My tense nerves immediately relaxed.
"Where is Aunt Liu?"
Aunt Liu glanced quickly at Bai Qianmo: "Sir, I went upstairs to call Miss Qianmo for dinner."
Bai Kangyan's gaze lingered on Bai Qianmo and Aunt Liu for a while.
"Qianmo, Aunt Liu, in order to clear your names, I may need to check your rooms."
Upon hearing Bai Kangyan's words, Aunt Liu remained calm.
He readily nodded in agreement: "Sir, you may feel free to look around my room."
Bai Qianmo's gaze swept over everyone present, finally settling on Bai Kangyan's face: "What if I don't agree?"
Bai Kangyan earnestly advised, "Qianmo, if we can't find the thief, you'll be suspected as a suspect."
He also couldn't believe that Qianmo would do something so foolish.
But right now she is indeed a prime suspect, so finding the thief is the most crucial thing.
Bai Qianmo curled her lips and looked in Bai Xiruo's direction with a playful expression.
When Bai Xiruo met Bai Qianmo's deep gaze, her heart skipped a beat.
Those eyes seemed to see right through her, exposing her thoughts to her very eyes.
Bai Xiruo's expression flickered slightly, and she quickly lowered her eyes.
"Little girl, if you didn't steal the bracelet, what's there to be afraid of when they search your room?" Madam Li sneered and glared at Bai Qianmo.
“Mr. Bai, Mrs. Bai, in principle I shouldn’t get involved in this matter as an outsider, but the bracelet was a gift from Yu Shu to Xi Ruo, and it’s really upsetting that it was stolen.”
Li Yushu frowned slightly after hearing his mother's words.
Looking thoughtfully at Bai Qianmo, he said in a deep voice, "Since the thief is in this building, the stolen goods must be in what he considers the safest place. Why don't we investigate all of us? That way, innocent people can be exonerated."
After Li Yushu finished speaking, Bai Kangyan and Han Songyan both fell silent.
“Madam Li, Yu Shu, you are honored guests, how can we search you?” Han Songyan said with a troubled expression.
Bai Kangyan followed up, saying, "Neither of you have been to the second floor, and that bracelet was given to Xi Ruo by Yu Shu. Song Yan and I would never doubt you."
Madam Li smiled and waved her hand: "What Yu Shu said makes sense. Since some people are unhappy about being investigated, it would be better for everyone to be investigated together. That way, it will show fairness."
His words were full of veiled sarcasm towards Bai Qianmo.
Bai Kangyan and Han Songyan, as parents, immediately felt embarrassed.
Seeing that Madam Li had spoken, Han Yaxin hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Bai Kangyan looked at Bai Qianmo, as if he had made a decision.
"That's settled then!"
Madam Li, Li Yushu, Han Yaxin, and Nie Siqi all displayed their personal belongings openly.
After checking, it was determined that the four of them had nothing to do with the missing bracelet.
Bai Kangyan then carefully searched Liu Ma's room but found no trace of the bracelet.
In the end, only Bai Qianmo was left.
The group followed Bai Kangyan and Han Songyan to Bai Qianmo's room.
Bai Kangyan gave Bai Qianmo a complicated look.
"Qianmo, you..."
The words that were about to come out suddenly got stuck in my throat.
He had intended to say that if she had stolen the bracelet, she should step forward and admit her mistake to avoid embarrassment later when it was discovered.
But if he says these words, it would undoubtedly mean that he is convinced that she stole the bracelet.
Bai Qianmo gave Bai Kangyan a deep look, a dark glint flashing across her dark eyes.
She knew what Bai Kangyan wanted to say, and suddenly felt it was meaningless.
Bai Qianmo didn't want to admit that she was somewhat disappointed at this moment.
He stepped forward, opened his own door, and said casually, "Go in and investigate."
Bai Kangyan felt a sharp pang in his heart and was about to walk into the house when Bai Xiruo suddenly spoke up.
