Because the situation was too urgent and Qiao Jingyu was stunned by the girl's miraculous skills with the golden needle, he had not looked at her appearance carefully.
Now that he was reminded of this, he realized that the girl in front of him, who was dressed very ordinary, had a stunning face and an extraordinary temperament. Almost at first sight, he felt that she was very suitable for the clothes designed by his grandfather.
He suddenly realized, "Could it be that you are the soulmate that Grandpa mentioned, the one who must come to Jiangcheng to hold a show?"
This is almost a definite statement.
Miao Lanying also gave a positive answer, "Your grandfather had waited so long to get you here."
She had originally intended to brag about Ye Lan's excellence, but Qiao Jingyu nodded in agreement, her eyes gleaming with passion as she spoke, "It's a shame my craftsmanship isn't even half as good as Grandpa's. When I improve my skills, I hope to invite Miss Ye to try on my creations."
When these words were spoken, everyone around was a little surprised.
After all, Qiao Jingyu became famous at a young age. Although the clothes she designed are not as national treasures as her grandfather's, they are still the top sellers at auctions. Now she says that her clothes are not worthy of Ye Lan, which is really shocking, but it also shows that the girl's appearance is impeccable.
In an instant, fashion gurus became more eager to work with the girl.
However, Qiao Kun still has to be hospitalized for recuperation. When the ambulance arrived at the club, Qiao Xintang just woke up.
When he learned that it was his own son who did it, he was furious, "You unfilial son!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit on the knee by a crutch and fell to his knees.
"Who is it..." He turned around angrily and was about to curse, but then he met his father's cold eyes and his heart suddenly felt weak. "Dad...are you okay?"
"Oh, I know you're just hoping something happens to me so you can sign a will and fight for the family fortune." Qiao Kun's lips curled up with a hint of sarcasm. He was still conscious when he first fell into a coma, so he heard the conversation about the will. He was completely cold towards his son. "Don't worry, I'll have a lawyer come right now to announce the division of the family. I'll leave everything in the Qiao family to Xiaoyu. As for you, just leave everything."
"What?" Qiao Xintang's face changed. He hadn't expected such an outcome. He was so panicked that he crawled to the old man's feet, begging for forgiveness, and burst into tears. "Dad, I was wrong. I was a jerk. I..."
Unfortunately, Qiao Quin didn't even look at him and just turned around and left in his wheelchair.
A family tragedy that almost resulted in death came to an end. When Qiao Xintang left, he looked at Ye Lan deeply, feeling extremely regretful.
He wondered if he hadn't stopped the girl from saving his father, would the outcome have been different...
Seeing this, Ah Yue was also curious. After she finished packing up the golden needle box, she asked, "What will happen to this person in the future?"
Because Ye Lan had solved the old man's predicament, he also saw the fate of the Qiao family. With just a glance, he said, "The business went bankrupt, and they were destitute. In the end, they started over as an apprentice under Qiao Jingyu."
Ah Yue exclaimed when she heard this. She had never expected that after all these twists and turns, the other party would still have to rely on tailoring to make a living. She couldn't help but sigh, "Human destiny is really strange."
Ye Lan deeply agreed with this statement.
After this incident, the celebration banquet was naturally not held.
Everyone left their business cards for Ye Lan and left.
Miao Lanying wanted to send Ye Lan back, so she followed him out of the club.
As soon as I walked out of the door, I heard a roar from the side.
"Stop, little thief!"
At first, the few people did not react and continued to move forward, until they were blocked by a group of people with aggressive attitude, then they realized that they were talking about them.
"Everything requires evidence. Who do you think is the thief?" Miao Lanying frowned and said in a stern tone.
The group of people opposite were all wearing white robes. Their attire looked somewhat familiar, but the words they spoke were extremely unpleasant.
"You are dressed in jewels and gems, so you are certainly not a thief. I'm talking about the one next to you. The box in her hand is the stolen item from our house. The photos are here. Let's see how you can deny it." A man in his thirties in the lead threw out several photos.
Miao Lanying was almost hit. She took two steps back and barely grabbed one of the photos. When she opened it, she found that it was a photo of a sandalwood box, which looked and shaped exactly the same as Ye Lan's box.
The few boxes scattered on the ground were placed in different locations and appeared in the same house.
"My grandfather bought this rosewood box at an auction for a fortune a few years ago. It also contained a set of priceless gold needles, but it was stolen not long ago. We thought we'd never get it back, but we never expected to find it here red-handed today!"
In an instant, the guests who had not yet left gathered together again, and their expressions began to become subtle when they saw the photos scattered on the ground.
Miao Lanying narrowed her eyes, a glint of fire already in them, "Don't be so arrogant and judge people by their appearance. Be careful that you will be the one who gets into trouble."
Although Ye Lan was only the daughter of a second-rate wealthy family in Jiangcheng, and was not favored, she actually lived in a place like the Golden Coast and was proficient in Xuanmen magic. Any normal person could see that she was not ordinary.
So what she said was purely advice.
Unfortunately, the other party looked completely disdainful.
"We have witnesses and evidence, even the auction invoice. Even threatening us with words won't work. If it's stolen, it's stolen."
The man's calm demeanor further confirmed the truth of his words.
Seeing that the eyes of the people around her were increasingly filled with suspicion towards the girl, Miao Lanying almost vomited blood in anger. Just as she was about to say something else, she caught a glimpse of the girl suddenly walking out from the corner of her eye.
Ye Lan looked at the sky and saw that it was getting late. He still had things to do in the evening, so he said to the man in front of him: "You can call the police and follow the procedures to arrest me. Now, get out of the way."
After saying that, she walked straight over and knocked the man's shoulder away.
"Hiss." The man felt pain and turned his head to glare at her fiercely, "How dare you hit someone? Stop her! No one is allowed to leave until the box is left here!"
As soon as the call was given, a group of helpers in white robes immediately stepped forward and surrounded A Yue and Ye Lan.
Miao Lanying's face changed and she shouted angrily, "You want to rob me openly?!"
"Haha, how can this be called robbery?" The man turned around and looked at her with a half-smile, "We are just taking back what belongs to our family."
"you!"
Miao Lanying was furious.
But at this moment, there were only three weak women at the scene, and the others all looked suspicious of them and thought that the other party's approach of taking back the things was correct. This made her feel desperate and hopeless, as if no one could help her.
But compared to her, the man and the ghost trapped among a group of men were relaxed and comfortable, and even had the leisure to argue about who should take the more appropriate action.
"Let me do it. Did you forget to tell me that I'm your bodyguard before you left?" A Yue was eager to try.
Ye Lan vetoed it with an expressionless face, "I'm afraid you'll kill someone, so I'll do it."
Ah Yue was unhappy, "You said it as if you didn't care about anyone's life."
The men in white robes who heard everything up close: "..."
