Chapter 38 - Are You

Chapter 38 Are You Alright?

With Zheng Zeyi around, there was no need for Qiao Sisi to steal from Wei Ya. She would incur the disdain of others for no reason.

The other colleagues saw that Wei Ya was flustered, while Qiao Sisi was calm and composed. They had believed Wei Ya just now, but now they were on Qiao Sisi’s side. “With a fiance like Young Master Zheng, why would Sisi need to steal from Wei Ya? This lie is too clumsy,” a woman said.

The other colleagues echoed her sentiments.

“I think so too. If I have such a boyfriend, why would I steal things? It’s not like I don’t have money.”

“Don’t think about it. Young Master Zheng is Sisi’s fiancé. Don’t let him hear you.”

As tongues were wagging, Wei Ya’s face turned pale. She knew that at this point, she was completely defeated.

“Qiao Sisi…” Wei Ya gritted her teeth. She seemed to have squeezed the words out through gritted teeth.

Qiao Sisi glanced at Wei Ya and pointed at the gift bag. “Wei Ya, prepare yourself mentally. You committed theft. This bracelet of mine is worth 1 million yuan!”

This was a bracelet that Zheng Zeyi had spent 1 million yuan on at the auction!

If not for her timely suspicion of Wei Ya, she did not know if she would have found this bracelet.

All of them would be going back to City H in the afternoon. Had Wei Ya hidden the things immediately after their return, Qiao Sisi would not be able to find them even if she had magical powers.

Fortunately, I’m a bright and quick-witted girl, thought Qiao Sisi. “The crime of… theft.” Wei Ya’s face was pale as she muttered. Then she forced out the words between her teeth. “It’s impossible, Qiao Sisi. You don’t have evidence. You can’t prove that I stole this bag.”

This was the struggle before death.

Qiao Sisi looked at her coldly. Providing evidence would be simple. She just needed to make a trip to the auction house and call Zheng Zeyi.

At this moment, Assistant Li’s expression changed. “Sisi, come with me.”

“Okay.” Although Qiao Sisi was a little puzzled, she followed her.

The two of them left Wei Ya’s room and went to Qiao Sisi’s room before closing the door.

“Sisi.” Assistant Li took a deep breath with a strange expression.

“Assistant Li, please tell me.” As the situation had evolved to this stage, Qiao Sisi began to conjecture in her heart.

No matter how she looked at it, avoiding everyone and coming to her room to talk was about Wei Ya…

“Alright, I’ll tell you then.” Assistant Li nodded and went straight to the point. “Sisi, Wei Ya’s theft is indeed not a small matter. I’ll report this to CEO Xiang, and she’ll definitely decide on the outcome. However… before CEO Xiang makes a decision, don’t report to the police.”

As expected, Assistant Li was talking about Wei Ya’s theft.

Qiao Sisi was stunned for a moment. After calming down, she carefully pondered over Assistant Li’s words. Based on how this matter had developed, Wei Ya must have some background.

This caused Director Xiang to have some reservations, which was why Assistant Li came over to speak to her.

Fortunately, the gift bag was back. Qiao Sisi was not so insistent on the outcome. Wei Ya had left a criminal record in her heart. She would take note of it in the future.

This time, she would do CEO Xiang a favor. After all, she was specially given a spot in the business trip to Yunqi by Xiang Jinyu.

“Alright, Assistant Li, let’s do as you say.” Qiao Sisi thought for a while before giving her answer.

After she agreed, Assistant Li revealed a rare smile. Then she left the room and went to a corner to call Xiang Jinyu to report what happened today.

Qiao Sisi returned to Wei Ya’s room and took the bag.

“Qiao Sisi!” Wei Ya’s gaze was exceptionally terrifying, like a venomous snake. At this moment, she was staring intently at Qiao Sisi.

“Wei Ya, I’ve already recorded what happened today using my phone. If you dare to play any tricks, I’ll tell Zheng Zeyi everything along with the evidence and recording. He’s my fiancé. You know very well what will happen next,” Qiao Sisi said without any pity.

Wei Ya had it coming. If she did not have the intention to steal her things, Qiao Sisi would not have been able to use this against her.

As for telling Zheng Zeyi about the matter, that might not be necessary. It would depend on the situation afterward.

After saying this, Qiao Sisi glanced at the dark-faced Wei Ya and called out to Lin Ya, “Lin Ya, let’s go. Remember to keep our things carefully in case someone comes to steal them again.”

When Lin Ya heard this, she quickly played along and said with a chuckle, “I know. I’ll definitely keep my things carefully.”

The two of them returned to their room and closed the door with a bang.

Since the parties involved had left, the colleagues of Jinyu Company dispersed quickly.

As they were leaving, they were still mumbling about what happened today.

“Little Mei, did you hear what Sisi said just now? Keep the expensive things carefully. Although we’re all colleagues, we have to be cautious.”

“You too. Usually, seeing Wei Ya’s arrogant ways. I thought that her family was rich. But well, she was envious of Qiao Sisi.”

“In my opinion, having a good fiancé depends on one’s own ability. Wei Ya is not capable and still covets other people’s things. Tsk,

tsk.”

All sorts of remarks pierced Wei Ya’s heart.

Moreover, these colleagues did not try to lower their voices at all. They were talking as they walked, and almost every sentence could be heard clearly.

Wei Ya usually flaunted her status in the company, but now, she had been reduced to a thief.

An opportunity to get back at Wei Ya was hard to come by, so naturally, these colleagues would not let it go. They chatted and laughed, each sentence striking at her heart.

The voices were getting further and further away, but Wei Ya’s expression was getting uglier.

Qiao Sisi!

Wei Ya’s nails dug into her flesh which started bleeding. She gritted her teeth tightly and cursed Qiao Sisi in her heart.

If not for Qiao Sisi, she would not have fallen to such a state today.

The originally flawless plan was now ruined. She was even mocked by everyone.

Wei Ya was so angry that her chest heaved up and down, as if she would pass out the next second.

All the colleagues at the door had left except a woman who walked into the room timidly. It was Wei Ya’s sidekick, Yili.

She was the one who brought Assistant Li and the colleagues to the scene.

Feeling a little uneasy, Yili took a step closer and hesitated for a long while before saying with a trembling voice, “Sister… Sister Wei Ya, are you alright?”
