199 A Plot Born After A Plot Fails (1/2)
Even though most of the guests had entered the main hall, there were still quite a number of people left in the side halls.
With that, everyone's gazes flushed toward Shi Guang's side.
The first person to rush over was a waiter. When he caught sight of the smashed vase, his entire face was frightfully pale. ”Oh gosh! How did the vase get smashed?”
At the same time, the manager of the restaurant rushed over.
Looking around, he said with a dilemma, ”Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that this is nothing but an accident. However, we are merely workers. It's really hard for us to account to the boss for such an expensive vase to be smashed.”
The people who were present today were far from ordinary. The manager presumed that they would not be concerned with this amount of money. But for these workers, this vase was really expensive, and not something that they could afford at all.
Shi Guang knew that she must definitely compensate for breaking something. However, even if she had to pay for it, she shouldn't be the only one. If the girl in front of her hadn't bumped into her, she would not have bumped into the vase as well.
No matter what, she felt that she should spill out the truth.
However, before she even spoke up, the woman who had bumped into her yelled out, ”It's her! She broke the vase!”
Shi Guang raised her brow and looked at her. ”Yes, I bumped into the vase, causing it to fall over. However, it was because you bumped into me that I bumped into it.”
The woman gave off a shocked expression. ”What? I… I didn't bump into you! You were clearly the one who fell over! Why are you framing me?”
”Who's framing who now? I witnessed it earlier as well. You were the one who moved back into her,” Huo Zhan moved over to Shi Guang's side as he said that.
”You guys went in one after another… Don't tell me that you've got eyes behind your back! How else could you have seen that?” The man who was quarreling with the woman earlier on pulled her into his embrace and replied with a strong attitude, ”You didn't see anything at all! On the other hand, I saw it perfectly clearly standing opposite her! That woman fell down on her own and bumped into the vase. There's no way our Mei Mei even touched her at all!”
The manager's head was starting to hurt now–just what was going on here?
They could not be thinking of denying everything and not paying for it, right?
All of these were young masters and mistresses of rich families! To them, this amount of money should be chump change! No matter whether or not someone bumped into them, the person who bumped into the vase would have to pay.
