s.h.i.+ Qingyue was stunned. L Yuean was stunned. And so was Lu Chuan.

This matter was getting interesting.

The necklace had been auctioned off in an underground auction house, but the family did not even know about it. Then, they even grabbed at someone elses necklace and refused to let go, saying that it was theirs.

They ve really embarra.s.sed themselves badly there.

Speaking of which, since you made a mistake, why arent you apologizing to Ningning?

Zhao Yi held his wine gla.s.s and said so coolly.

Zhao Junli looked at the situation in front of her and immediately came out to smooth things over. She walked over with a smile.

Oh my, Ningnings here too, Auntie here didnt even see you. Look at this commotion. I know Ningning, shes the most considerate girl. She doesnt concern herself over such things, right, Ningning?

Lu Ning smiled and looked over. Auntie, Im actually quite concerned. Cant a girl care about her own reputation?

Zhao Junli choked. Erm, thats not what Auntie meant

Lu Ning immediately turned around. Since thats not what she meant, apologize.

L Yuean was the first to come to grips with the situation. However, she gritted her teeth and refused to apologize to Lu Ning again. Even if I have to put up an act, I wont do it!

L Chuan took a deep breath and looked over. Ningning, Im sorry. Its Dadits Uncles fault this time I shouldnt have said it was you without investigating this matter. Im really sorry.

Lu Ning only glanced at him indifferently, then looked at s.h.i.+ Qingyue. Mrs. Jab, what about you? This matter seems to have started because of you.

Her expression and tone were indifferent and distant.

s.h.i.+ Qingyue turned to look at her.

She would never have thought that the one on Lu Nings neck was another one; and to think that it was the one which had added value!

However, at this moment, everyone was looking at her. She could not really do nothing. Wont my reputation in these circles be ruined in the future?

Im sorry, Ningning.

She took a deep breath and softened her voice as she looked at Lu Ning.

Lu Ning smiled and finally looked at L Yuean. She swirled the gla.s.s in her hand and said with a smile, Sister Anan, why arent you saying anything? Werent you so eloquent just now? Why? Has the L familys upbringing become so sloppy?

Her words were full of ridicule.

L Yuean gritted her teeth, looked at Lu Ning, and bowed deeply. Im sorry,

Sister Ning. I was being impulsive just now. Im sorry.

Lu Ning smiled and raised her hand slightly. Its fine as long as you admit your mistakes. Ive received your apologies. Youve seen what happened, so do you officers still want to detain me for investigation?

That wont be necessary.

Lu Ning smiled and placed the gla.s.s in her hand on the table. Then, she stood up.

She looked like an elegant young lady from a wealthy family.

Everyone looked at her and could not find any fault.

It seems that my appearance has ruined Lin Yis birthday party. 1 shall take my leave first.

She smiled and looked at everyone politely before waving at Lin Ci.

Then, she took the necklace and slowly put it around her neck.

She and Lin Ci left hand in hand.

Gu Cheng also packed his things and prepared to leave.

After packing up everything, Gu Cheng stood in front of s.h.i.+ Qingyue and L Chuan and smiled before saying, Mr. I-RI, Mrs. lab, why dont you check Miss L Yueans account? There appears that there were four transfers of funds from unknovvn origins.

The connotations of what he said were too clear. Isnt he obviously implying that L Yuean might have sold that necklace?

Oh, thats right.. Ive already collected evidence regarding todays incident
