Chapter 1320 - Since You Refuse to Own Up, Well Have to Search You! (1/2)

Everyone began pointing fingers and gossiping about Ning Shuqian.

Ning Shuqian was extremely infuriated about the fact that Wen Xinya had twisted the truth. She retorted in a shrilling voice. “Wen Xinya, you accused me…”

Your father was the one who gave the jewelry to me, I…

“Are you refusing to own up?” Wen Xinya barked in a hostile manner before grabbing Ning Shuqian’s purse in a bid to search it.

No longer in the mood to complete the rest of her sentence, Ning Shuqian hurriedly snatched her purse away and screeched. “Wen Xinya, what are you doing? Don’t you go overboard!”

Ning Shuqian gritted her teeth angrily. If Wen Xinya had snatched her purse and searched it in public, everyone would simply think that she was defending herself unreasonably and not believe her even if she told everyone the truth. Others would just think that Wen Haowen had defended her because he didn’t want to be embarrassed.

She would definitely be labeled as a thief.

This sly and cunning Wen Xinya had become even harder to deal with. Ning Shuqian had no idea what she should do now.

Wen Xinya said self-righteously, “Of course I’m going to search your purse. Let’s see how you can deny.”

Getting back the jewelry alone was not going to satisfy Wen Xinya.

Since she wanted to get the jewelry back from Ning Shuqian, she had to lay a trap and prevent Ning Shuqian from finding an excuse to flee. Not only was she going to get the jewelry back, but she also wanted to teach Ning Shuqian a lesson. Of course, she was going to embarrass her in public too. Since she could kill three birds with one stone, what’s not to love?

Ning Shuqian obviously wouldn’t let Wen Xinya search her purse. She said sternly, “Wen Xinya, your father gave this set of jewelry to me. I didn’t steal it.”

Just like Ning Shuqian expected, they did not believe her words at all.

Everyone believed Wen Xinya because they knew that she wouldn’t have acted recklessly and insisted on searching Ning Shuqian’s purse if she didn’t have sufficient evidence.

Now that Ning Shuqian had such a poor reputation, who would be willing to believe her?

Wen Xinya said calmly, “If you say so.”

Wen Xinya’s attitude made herself sound even more believable.

Ning Shuqian knew that she really had to stop Wen Xinya from searching her purse. “Wen Xinya, you’re being too atrocious. How could you say that I stole the jewelry just because of something the employee said? You slapped and yelled at me in public and accused me of such a crime. Who gave you the power to do that to me?”

Wen Xinya raised her brows. She wanted to hear how Ning Shuqian was going to defend herself.
