Unaware of Gu Lis suspicions towards her, Wan Yao quickly removed Mrs.
Qians hand from Gu Lis arm and earnestly said, Lets calm down and talk this out. There must be a misunderstanding. Gu Li has no reason to steal from you.
A misunderstanding?
Seen by so many eyes, its still considered a misunderstanding? Mrs. Qian shook off Wan Yaos hand in anger.
This
Wan Yao hesitated. She glanced at Gu Li awkwardly and suddenly suggested, Mrs. Qian, may I have a word with you in private?
Mrs. Qian glanced at her sideways, What, are there things that cant be said in front of others?
Yes, lets step aside for a moment.
Fine, lets talk over there.
The two women walked to the sofa area nearby.
Once they left, the surrounding people immediately started gossiping about Gu Li.
The girl is so innocent-looking, how could she become a thief?
Dont judge a book by its cover, who said a pretty girl cant be a thief?
True, shes such a waste of a good face.
But Mrs. Song seems to quite like her. She even pleaded to Mrs. Qian on her behalf.
Indeed, I would definitely ignore her if I were in that situation.
This is so humiliating!
Everyone was talking louder and louder, not caring whether Gu Li could hear them or not.
Gu Li stood to one side, her face expressionless.
About two minutes later, the two women, who had been whispering to each other, returned.
Everyone immediately turned their gossiping eyes onto them.
At this point, Wan Yao had already pulled Gu Li aside.
Gu Li, this incident is indeed disgraceful. If it turns into a police case, it wont be good for you or for the Mo and Song families, Wan Yao advised.
Gu Li lowered her head, hiding the unusual glint in her eyes before nervously saying, Cousin-in-law, I really dont know how that ring ended up in my bag. Ive been falsely accused.
Wan Yao looked at her and sighed in resignation. The evidence is compelling. Nobody is going to believe you.
Then what should I do? Cousin-in-law, I really didnt steal anything.
Gu Li still looked helpless.
Seeing this, Wan Yao couldnt help but laugh inside, although she kindly suggested, Why dont we settle this privately?
Settle this privately? Would Mrs. Qian agree?
She owes me a favor. I believe she will agree if I plead with her. But She paused suddenly, holding Gu Lis hand, Gu Li, in return for my help, you must remember to do me a favor when the time comes.
Gu Li nodded heavily, Dont worry, Ill always remember how youve helped me.
Okay, then let me go and talk to Mrs. Qian again. But first, I hope you can agree to persuade Mo Shiting to give Zekai a break.
It was then that Wan Yao finally revealed her true intentions.
Gu Li blinked, then replied with a bitter face: Cousin-in-law, Mo Shiting wont listen to me. I cant help you with this.
How can that be? Try calling Mo Shiting right now
Wan Yao urged eagerly but was interrupted by Gu Li, Lets forget about it. The law is fair, and besides, I dont want to be labelled a thief without knowing why. Cousin-in-law, lets call the police.
What? Call the police?!
Wan Yao paled instantly, No, we cant call the police. Once thats done, your reputation will be ruined.
Gu Li smiled faintly, Dont worry, it wont.
But
Just as Wan Yao wanted to persuade her again, two uniformed police officers walked in.
We have received a report of a theft of valuable property here. Now, we need everyone involved to accompany us to the police station for further investigation.
