Liu Mei was stunned.
"You don't trust me?"
Mingdai's big eyes blinked innocently.
“I’m not worried, I just don’t want to be away from my jewelry for even a moment longer.”
Liu Mei had encountered this situation before, and she had plenty of ways to deal with it.
"good."
Mingdai followed Liu Mei to the backstage dressing room.
To prevent Liu Mei from switching the jewelry along the way, Ming Dai carried the set of jewelry herself and walked alongside Liu Mei.
Mingdai walked away, still feeling embarrassed.
"It's better to be cautious."
Liu Mei smiled understandingly at her, but didn't say anything.
Upon entering the lounge, the door was ajar, and two bodyguards were already in position on either side.
"Please sit down."
Liu Mei pointed to the sofa, "What would you like to drink? Tea? Coffee? Or a beverage?"
She was trying to distract Mingdai.
Mingdai, clutching the jewelry in her arms, said, "Tea."
"good."
Soon, Liu Mei brought over a pot of fine tea, followed by two female staff members carrying packaging boxes.
"Miss Ming, please hand over the jewelry to us, and we will pack it for you."
Mingdai's beautiful almond-shaped eyes looked blankly at Liu Mei, who was bending down to pour her tea.
She shook her head at the two staff members, "No need for you to bother, Miss Liu said she would pack it for me herself."
Her gaze could only be fixed on Liu Mei.
Liu Mei frowned silently, cursing Ming Dai for being so vigilant. Hadn't the test already been done? What was there to be afraid of?
After pouring the tea, he smiled warmly.
Liu Mei dismissed the staff and sat down opposite Ming Dai.
I picked up several exquisitely packaged bags left by the staff and scanned them one by one.
Liu Mei smiled with satisfaction, the curve was very shallow, but Ming Dai could still see it clearly.
"Give it to me."
Liu Mei reached out and asked Ming Dai for the jewelry, "I'm sitting right across from you, so you should feel relieved now, right?"
Mingdai sneered, "You already have a ready-made counterfeit in your box waiting to replace my genuine set. If I were to give it to you, wouldn't I be the one who gets ripped off?"
Mingdai glanced at her phone discreetly. Lin Yang had sent her a message saying he was available anytime.
Mingdai handed the jewelry to Liumei, who then slowly sipped her tea.
Liu Mei appeared serious, but in reality, she had already successfully switched the beams and pillars.
It's funny, really. She swapped the two sets of jewelry right under Mingdai's nose.
"It's wrapped up."
Liu Mei pushed the exquisite box to Ming Dai with satisfaction.
At the same time, he pushed the card reader in front of Mingdai.
"I'll let you know when I have good stuff next time."
Liu Mei smiled and said, "This set you have will be worth many times more in a few years. It would be perfect as a family heirloom."
Mingdai laughed heartily a few times.
He took out his bank card to pay.
"Smack!"
The action of drawing the card was a bit too forceful, and I accidentally knocked over the teacup on the table.
The ceramic teacup fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
A little water from the teacup splashed onto Mingdai's skirt.
Mingdai quickly stood up.
"I'm so embarrassed by my clumsy hands!"
Mingdai asked Liumei, "Is there a restroom? I'd like to tidy up a bit."
Liu Mei had a bad feeling, but based on her investigation of Ming Dai, she knew that Ming Dai could not pose any threat to her, let alone see through her deception.
Perhaps it was all just an accident.
With the eight million in hand on the verge of being obtained, Liu Mei was unwilling to retreat now.
"have."
Liu Mei slowly stood up and pointed Ming Dai in the direction of the restroom.
At the same time, a commotion arose outside.
Liu Mei's first reaction was to get the real jewelry.
Mingdai reacted even faster, having already circled around the coffee table and grabbed the takeout bag that Liu Mei had pretended to casually place next to the sofa.
Mingdai ran towards the door carrying the heavy jewelry.
Liu Mei then realized she had been tricked.
"bodyguard!"
She shouted for her bodyguards.
She herself turned pale and wanted to snatch the jewelry.
The door opened from the outside, and Lin Yang led the police in.
"Don't move, hands up."
The police intervention left Liu Mei with nowhere to escape.
Both the genuine and fake jewelry were taken away by the police.
Are you alright?
Lin Yang asked Ming Dai.
Mingdai shook her head. "It's nothing."
She stood in the long corridor, watching as different staff members were being taken away by the police from several break rooms.
"Liu Mei is really bold. I thought she was only lying to me."
Lin Yang felt only deep disgust for Liu Mei.
"She intended to not commit any more crimes for a long time after this one, so she was hoping to scam even more people."
Mingdai thought of those who had suffered greatly at Liu Mei's hands, many of whom had had their families broken apart, and she couldn't feel any sympathy for Liu Mei.
"Is this really over? Have all of Liu Mei's accomplices been arrested?"
"All arrested."
Lin Yang nodded affirmatively and said, "I also have to thank Mr. He for his great help. If he hadn't secretly blocked the news and prevented Liu Mei from receiving the crisis feedback in time, we wouldn't have been able to wipe them out so easily."
I really have to thank them.
Mingdai had even mentioned this to He Yaonian.
"I just don't know if he has time lately. He's always very busy, so it's probably hard to get him to go out with me."
Lin Yang was somewhat surprised by Ming Dai's words.
"You can't get a date with him either?"
Mingdai was dumbfounded.
Why do you ask that? Do you think I'm that close to him?
Lin Yang: "...That's what I think."
Mingdai was speechless.
"No, I don't ask him out much either."
