Chapter 252: Chapter 253: The Necklace is a Gift for My Wife
Translator: 549690339
Perhaps this is what it feels like to be the target of public accusation.
But Xia Yangyang knew that she could not show weakness now. The more vulnerable she appeared, the more others would think she was guilty.
If someone was purposely setting her up.
Then this would become a war.
The war had just begun, and she could not surrender.
The security manager said: “This is a grave matter, so we have naturally called the police. Miss Xia, please consider surrendering yourself to the police station, as this may lighten your sentence.”
Her voice was ice-cold: “I’ve said before that I didn’t steal the necklace. Why should I surrender? What you should do is investigate thoroughly. Someone is framing me.”
Once Xia Yangyang finished speaking, she turned to face Shen Manbing.
The crowd noticed this detail.
“Miss Xia is clearly hinting at something. Is she implying that Manbing, a renowned name in the entertainment industry, stole the jewel and planted it in her bag intentionally to frame her?”
“Thinking about it, it’s not completely impossible. After all, Miss Xia is already the wife of the president of Shengyuan Group. Mr. Gu adores her so much; she wouldn’t risk her reputation for a mere jewel.”
“I’ve heard that Shen Manbing has always been very difficult with her, and Manbing has always been willful, so it’s really not impossible.”
“Why don’t you think that Miss Xia is trying to pin the blame on Shen Manbing, having being caught red-handed? This young lady reached the peak of her life at such a young age. She’s not ordinary.”
For a moment, the exhibition hall was bustling with discussions.
Almost everyone didn’t bother to hide their differing opinions.
Shen Manbing couldn’t help it and walked up to Xia Yangyang, sneering: “Xia Yangyang, I didn’t expect you to be so scheming. You thief the jewel and pin the blame on me. At least I saw right. You’re wrapped in a cloak of weakness, fooling everyone.”
Shen Manbing didn’t mince her words when she spoke either.
Xia Yangyang retorted: “I didn’t mention you from the beginning to the end.
Shen Manbing, you better not assume guilt.”
“Xia Yangyang, you!”
Just as rumors were flying around and Xia Yangyang and Shen Manbing were at an stalemate.
A deep male voice suddenly sounded from the crowd: “I took the jewel.”
The venue fell silent once again.
They then turned towards the sound.
It was Gu Qichen, Mr. Gu – the President of Shengyuan Group.
Mr. Gu walked over leisurely.
The host hastily approached him: “Mr. Gu, what did you just say? You said you took the jewel?”
Gu Qichen said lightly: “I am the buyer of the Heart of the Kingdom. I bought the necklace as my wife’s Christmas present. I put the jewel in her bag, wanting to give her a surprise. I didn’t expect it to be misunderstood like this.”
Everyone was puzzled.
At this time, the person in charge of the jewelry exhibition, Mo YinFeng, the President of MoShi Group, also appeared in the crowd.
Mo YinFeng said: “I can testify that Mr. Gu is the buyer of the Heart of the Kingdom. I have the certificate here.”
Mo YinFeng took out the certificate, and when the crowd saw the figure on it, they drew a gasp.

Mr. Gu had spent two hundred million just to prepare a Christmas gift for his darling wife!
This was far beyond merely indulging in pleasure.
After Gu Qichen showed up, the public opinion immediately shifted.
“So it was all a misunderstanding. Mrs. Gu is so lucky; the surprise Mr. Gu had prepared almost became a fright.”
“Mrs. Gu must be the luckiest woman in the world. So envious.”
