The car drove in quickly and stopped smoothly in front of Gu Jingchen and Su Ning. The driver got out of the car, opened the door with a smile, and invited Gu Jingchen and Su Ning to get in.
He figured the boss must be exhausted carrying the person to the gate, so he drove the car straight in.
However, the boss seemed unhappy—no, he glared coldly at him and the car, with a menacing air that seemed to want them all to disappear and get out of there.
Xu Yi, who had followed along, saw the driver take it upon himself to drive the car over. "Master, you're really asking for trouble!"
It's fine for the gentleman to carry his wife home.
"Gu Jingchen".
Su Ning felt embarrassed that Gu Jingchen had held her for so long, so she called out to him before he bent down and slowly put her in the back seat.
When Gu Jingchen came back in, he didn't say a word on the way back, and the silence made everyone in the car panic. Su Ning stayed with him in silence, occasionally catching a glimpse of that blurry yet familiar face through the glass window in the dim night.
The next day, Gu Jingchen woke up late, and they arrived at work half an hour later. Having had a good rest, Su Ning couldn't help but sigh, "Being a boss is great! You can be late whenever you want, and sleep in whenever you want. Of course, being the boss's wife isn't bad either; you can be late with your boss."
She entered the office in a good mood, and saw Zhou Shanshan, Qiao Yimo, and two others bent over, looking for something.
They looked very anxious.
"What's wrong?"
Su Ning asked, and when Designer Chen saw Su Ning arrive, he quickly went to her side.
Chen She didn't have that much hatred for Su Ning, nor did he get in through Qiao Yimo, so after being threatened and bribed by Su Ning, most of his heart turned to her side.
Designer Chen glanced at Qiao Yimo and said in a low voice, "Miss Qiao's necklace is lost."
What necklace?
Su Ning asked in confusion.
"It's the one that won the gold medal for Miss Qiao."
Designer Chen continued, "Yesterday afternoon, she left it on the table when she went back, and when she came back this morning, she couldn't find it."
"Oh," Su Ning replied, and walked towards her seat.
"Keep searching, what crevice might it have fallen into?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhou Shanshan, who was searching, turned to face Su Ning and asked, "Did you take Miss Qiao's necklace?"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Yimo straightened up and looked at Su Ning.
"Sister, did you take it?"
She wasn't wearing a mask today; most of the swelling on her face had subsided, and it was barely noticeable with foundation. She bit her lip, and tears welled up in her eyes.
"no."
Su Ning had barely uttered two words when Zhou Shanshan strode over, her voice rising sharply, "You must have taken it."
“Yesterday, Miss Qiao gave you a necklace as an apology, but you insisted on taking the one she was wearing around her neck.”
"Besides, we've all left after get off work, and you're the only one who stayed behind with the excuse that you haven't finished your work. Who else could it be but you!"
"Um!"
Su Ning picked up the watch from the table and put it back on her wrist. She looked up at Zhou Shanshan, who was furious, and agreed, "That makes some sense."
“I glanced at the necklace around her neck a few more times yesterday, and I was the only one working overtime until very late. I was the only one with the motive and the time to commit the crime.”
As soon as she admitted it, Zhou Shanshan and Qiao Yimo exchanged a glance; things had gone much more smoothly than they had expected. "However..."
Su Ning changed the subject, turning to look at the two people whose eyes were full of mockery, and innocently replied, "I really didn't take it!"
