Before anyone could speak, Fu Ruirui had an idea. She squeezed out her tears and apologized, “I’m sorry, this is all my fault!”

“How could I forget? That day, I heard Mom saying that the ruby necklace is quite old and she wants to get it polished. I wanted to help out. I took the necklace and wanted to ask Xingxing to go to the jewelry store with me. But, Xingxing wasn’t there, so I left the necklace behind!” Fu Ruirui blinked her big eyes innocently as if she had been wronged.

Fu Zichen immediately opened his mouth to cover for her, “Yes! This must be a misunderstanding! Ruirui is so gentle and kind. How could she have any bad intentions?”

The other brothers also echoed. They simply meant that the matter was over since the necklace had been found.

“Since it’s a misunderstanding, let’s dismiss!” Mother Fu nodded.

Just as everyone was about to leave, Fu Xingxing laughed loudly, “Hahaha!”

Hearing the loud laughter, everyone looked over in unison.

The five brothers looked at her with disdain, wondering what this ugly beast was up to.

“What kind of double-standard situation is this?” Fu Xingxing deliberately raised her voice, “Just now, because of someone’s one-sided statement, everyone framed me, attacked me, asked me to apologize, and even wanted to kick me out of the Fu family.”

“In the end, when the truth prevailed, did you guys just concluded it as a misunderstanding? Haha, what a joke!”

Fu Xingxing laughed sarcastically and then glanced at the crowd. She continued, “Fu Ruirui, how did you accidentally leave the necklace in my bag?”

“My bag is in the cabinet! Aren’t you being too careless?” Any sane human wouldn’t believe that lie!

However, the Fu family must have been blinded. They went on and protected Fu Ruirui.

“Fu Xingxing, don’t push your luck!”

“If you didn’t take it, then so be it. Doesn’t that clear your name? What else do you want?”

…

Fu Xingxing sneered and said, “What’s wrong? Am I not human? Don’t I have any authority?”

“Just now, you guys slandered me for no reason and accused me of being a thief. It’s not too much for me to ask for an apology right?” Fu Xingxing was already suppressing her emotions. Otherwise, she would have scolded them long ago.

Fu Ziwei stood out and defended, “We’re all family. Why are you so calculative?”

“Did you treat me as family just now? Were you being polite with me just now?” Fu Xingxing immediately retorted.

Fu Ziwei was immediately rendered speechless and unable to refute. He could only curse in his heart, ‘Why did this ugly girl suddenly become so eloquent?’

Fu Ruirui was the most sensible one. She took advantage of the awkward atmosphere and acted sincerely, “Xingxing is right. This is all my fault. I should apologize to her!”

Then, Fu Ruirui walked to Fu Xingxing’s side and said, “Xingxing, I’m sorry! I didn’t do it on purpose! I have no bad intentions! I really want to get along with you!”

Fu Ruirui was an experienced liar. In the midst of apology, she made herself sound extremely wronged. She even started to talk nonsense and change the topic, “Actually, I have five brothers in the Fu family, but I feel very lonely. I’ve always wanted to have a good sister! Now that you’re here, it’s just nice! We can go shopping and play together. We can be good sisters who talk about everything. We can do many things together.”
