Chapter 117 The necklace is missing

It was none other than Ye Xiyuan who exclaimed at this time, with a nervous expression on her face. More importantly, there was nothing on her neck at this time. Just now, everyone saw that she was wearing a diamond necklace around her neck.

"Xiyuan, what's going on?" Ye Li hurried forward and saw that the diamond necklace on Ye Xiyuan's neck had disappeared, "Where did your necklace go?"

The necklace Ye Xiyuan wears around her neck tonight is a gift from the young master Nangong, and it is priceless. Now it is suddenly lost, no matter what, things can't be settled easily. Especially this necklace was custom-made for Ye Xiyuan by the Young Master Nangong. Just this kind of intention should not be underestimated.

"Dad! I don't know what's going on!" Ye Xiyuan was about to cry, "Just before blowing out the candles, I felt as if someone was approaching me, and then I felt as if someone had touched my neck. But I thought it was my feeling. Unexpectedly, after the light was turned on, I found that the necklace on my neck was gone."

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar in the audience. Because Ye Xiyuan's words clearly conveyed one meaning, that is, the one who stole the necklace is the guest here.

Now, everyone is unhappy. They came here just to attend the banquet and socialize by the way. Now they are treated as thieves, who can bear it! Besides, although the necklace is priceless. However, these people are also famous and have a lot of wealth in their family. If they want to customize a necklace like this, they are also capable.

Ye Xiyuan was so anxious that she was about to cry. She looked at Nangong Xuyao, and said apologetically, "Brother Nangong, I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of the necklace you gave me. You just gave it to me today, but I lost it."

"It's okay, it's not your fault." Nangong Xuyao came to Ye Xiyuan's side and comforted him, "You would never have imagined that someone would do such a thing. The one who stole the necklace was at fault, not you."

After finishing speaking, he looked around, and a slightly majestic voice sounded, "Who took the necklace, take it out now, and I can let it go. Otherwise, it will not be so easy to settle this matter when it is reported to the police."

Ye Leng'an, who had been watching everything, couldn't help but sneer.

In her previous life, Ye Xiyuan used this method to frame her. However, unlike her previous life, what Ye Xiyuan lost was not a necklace, but a rather expensive bracelet. I use that necklace in this life, probably because the value of the necklace is higher!

If she guessed correctly, Ye Xiyuan's necklace should be in her bag right now. Wait a minute, someone will definitely propose to search her bag.

Things were as expected by Ye Leng'an. After Nangong Xuyao finished speaking, the guests present still remained silent. After all, it is impossible for anyone who can come here to attend the banquet without a necklace. If you really like it, you can order one after you go back. No one would do such a shameful thing as stealing.

However, at this moment, a sharp voice sounded.

"Ye Leng'an must have done it. When she was cutting the cake just now, she deliberately approached Xiyuan!" Qian Gumeng pointed directly at Ye Leng'an, and shouted, "Besides, the people who came here today are either rich or expensive. Only Ye Leng'an, she has the motive to steal the necklace."

For a moment, everyone's eyes were on Ye Leng'an.

"Classmate Ye, if you really took it, please take it out!" Ye Xiyuan looked at Ye Leng'an, a flash of complacency flashed in her eyes, but her face was pleading, "As long as you take it out, I can pretend that nothing happened. Besides, I have other necklaces, you can choose whatever you want, but not this one, this necklace is very precious to me."

The necklace has already been put into Ye Leng'an's bag by the system. In such a large crowd, Ye Leng'an can't escape even if he speaks out.

As long as tonight is over, Ye Leng'an will be ruined. Of course, such a considerate person as her would never call the police. She wanted Ye Leng'an to live in the eyes of everyone who cast aside her eyes.

Everyone thought that after such a thing happened, Ye Leng'an should be in a panic at this time, no matter whether he stole the necklace or not.

However, the fact is just the opposite. Ye Leng'an looked extraordinarily calm, with a lazy aura in his whole body. When facing the gazes of everyone, he didn't feel any nervousness, and he was still unhurried, "Oh, is it? That necklace is really so precious! Then you really should take good care of it. It's best to lock it in a safe, and don't bring it out to the market. You see, throw it away now!"

Such words stunned everyone present. Is this to admit it, or not to admit it!

"Ye Leng'an, you still have the nerve to talk sarcastic here." Qian Gumeng jumped out, pointed at Ye Leng'an's nose and cursed, "You stole the necklace, and you have no repentance."

After finishing speaking, she turned her head, looked at Ye Xiyuan, and said directly, "Xiyuan, you are just too soft-hearted. For such a person, you should call the police directly and let the police arrest her as a thief."

"Where's the evidence?" Seeing Qian Gumeng jumping up and down, Ye Leng'an sneered and said, "You said I took it away, then I took it away! I still say that you took it away!"

"You" Seeing Ye Leng'an's rascal, Qian Gumeng was so angry that he was about to smoke.

"Ye Leng'an, take out the necklace now, and we can let the past go." The one who spoke was Chen Wanqin, who took a step forward and came in front of Ye Leng'an, with a hint of disdain and disgust in her tone, "Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."

Now whenever she sees Ye Leng'an, she will remember that it was Ye Leng'an's parents who exchanged her biological daughter. Therefore, she has no way to restrain her hatred for Ye Leng'an.

When Qian Gumeng stepped forward to doubt Ye Leng'an just now, she believed it without hesitation. Because, what kind of parents there are, there is what kind of daughter. Ye Leng'an is definitely not a good thing.

"Oh, then why do you want to be rude?" Ye Leng'an didn't care about the other party's threat at all, she smiled indifferently, "Or, you don't care who stole the necklace now, you just want me to admit that you are a thief?"

"Ye Leng'an, you are too arrogant." Ye Li's face was livid, "This is not a place where you can be presumptuous."

"Since you all say that I stole the necklace, there must be evidence!" Ye Leng'an was not nervous, and the cloud was still calm, "You know, in the law, there is a crime called defamation. If your memory is good enough, you should remember that not long ago, I just sued a person for defamation. Or do you also want to argue with me in court to see if I can be convicted of defamation?"

"You" Ye Leng'an's arrogant attitude made Ye Li speechless with anger.

"If you have the ability, you can take out your bag and let us search it!" Qian Gumeng said directly, "The necklace must be in your bag now."

"Why should I search for you?" Ye Leng'an casually picked up her bag and shook it, "Or, what qualifications do you have to search my bag?"

"You must be guilty of being a thief, so you dare not let everyone search your bag." Qian Gumeng said triumphantly as if he had grasped something, "So, you must have stolen the necklace, and it is in your bag now."

"Just because of your suspicion, I will let you search my bag. Do you have such a big face?" Ye Leng'an's mouth curled into a sneering smile, "Wait a minute, if you suspect other people, do you still want to search other people's bags? Do you want to search all of our bags before you are reconciled?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone's eyes suddenly became unfriendly. They're here to party, not to be insulted. If the bag is really searched, wouldn't it be equivalent to suspecting that they are thieves? They are determined not to accept such an insult.

For a while, when everyone looked at Qian Gumeng, they were very dissatisfied, thinking that she treated all of them as thieves.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Qian Gumeng became a little anxious when he saw the unfriendly eyes of the people, "When did I say that I would search other people's bags, but what I want to search is your bag."

"Oh, it seems that you know that the necklace is in my bag!" Ye Leng'an suddenly realized, "Could it be that you saw me take the necklace with your own eyes? However, if this is the case, it will be even more strange. Since you saw it, why didn't you stop me?"

Such a series of words made Qian Gumeng not know how to answer for a while. Moreover, she found that when other people looked at her, there was a hint of suspicion in their eyes, intentionally or unconsciously.

"Ye Leng'an, don't force your words here." Qian Gumeng was also a little anxious, "If you are not a guilty conscience, why don't you let everyone see your bag?"

"You are so eager to pour dirty water on me, I still wonder if you are a thief!" Ye Leng'an said pointedly, "All your actions now are to divert everyone's attention."

"You" Qian Gumeng was so stunned that she couldn't speak. She was very anxious, but she didn't know what to say.

Ye Xiyuan on the side cursed a fool, stood up, smiled and said, "Classmate Ye, I believe Gu Meng, she is my good friend, she would not do such a thing."

Usually, why didn't she see that Qian Gumeng is so stupid! Incompetent bungler. It's useless tonight, every time Ye Leng'an asks him to be speechless. She even wondered if it was a wise move for her to choose Qian Gumeng as a gun.

"Oh, what you mean is that you don't believe me!" Ye Leng'an said suddenly, "If that's the case, then why did you come to invite me to this dinner in person? Probably not, it's just because of this scene!"

"Classmate Ye, how can you think of me like this?" Ye Xiyuan looked deeply shocked, "I sincerely invited you here. And, I also believe that you are definitely not that kind of person. But, I think, you should also want to prove your innocence, don't you?"

"I don't want to!" Ye Leng'an didn't play the cards according to the rules, "Now you are the ones who suspect me, so it should be you who have to produce evidence to prove that I stole it! It's not me who proves my innocence."

No one would have thought that Ye Leng'an would answer like this. Because most people would be motivated to prove their innocence under such circumstances.

For a while, the atmosphere in the banquet hall was a little dignified. The Ye family is on one side, and Ye Leng'an is on the other. The two sides seem to be at a stalemate, and neither is willing to give in.

Ye Xiyuan was a little anxious, she cast a bewildered look at Nangong Xuyao, as if she wanted to seek help from him.

Nangong Xuyao took a step forward, looked at Ye Leng'an, and said, "Miss Ye, the matter has come to this point, and there will always be a result in the end. Why don't you show everyone your bag! If we really wronged you, then we will apologize to you."

Nangong spoke up in person, and most people would give face to this. It's a pity that what he is facing now is Ye Leng'an.

"Apologize?" Ye Leng'an raised his eyebrows, and said with a sneer, "If an apology is useful, then why do you need the police? I'll leave my words here today. If you want to see my bag, that's fine. Either you have to produce definite evidence that I stole the necklace. Or, to show fairness, today everyone's bags, including men's pockets, must be searched once."

"Impossible." Ye Li directly vetoed it.

If he really searched everyone's pockets today, wouldn't he want to offend everyone present. Even with the backing of Young Master Nangong and offending so many people at once, the Ye family will struggle in the future.

"Forget it." Ye Leng'an said indifferently, "Since you can't decide, then I'll go first. I don't have time to play this kind of thief shouting catch thief game with you here."

"Don't leave," Ye Xiyuan screamed, but then she realized that her reaction seemed to be too loud, and quickly explained, "I just think that the matter has not been resolved yet, student Ye, isn't it appropriate for you to leave like this?"

"If she leaves now, the necklace really won't be found." Qian Gu dreamed of sewing needles, looked at Ye Leng'an, and said, "Ye Leng'an, if you didn't feel guilty, why did you leave now?"

"Then if you haven't been able to find the necklace, is it possible that I will be here with you all tonight?" Ye Leng'an smiled dismissively, "I'm surprised, since this necklace is so expensive, you didn't call the police the first time it disappeared, but kept asking to see my bag. Why, did you put the necklace in it yourself? Just so sure, it must be in my bag?"

"Miss Ye, we just want to see your bag now," Nangong Xuyao's attitude became tougher, "Since you are innocent, then don't keep talking about him here, and prove it with actions. If you have been unwilling to cooperate, then we can only take tough measures."

He didn't know why Xiyuan felt that it was Ye Leng'an who stole the necklace. But, he felt, there must be a reason for that. Moreover, if Ye Leng'an is innocent this night, why has he been evading inspection?

"Then it seems that you want to search by force."

If you were an ordinary person, you might have already taken out your own bag, but it's a pity that Ye Leng'an is the kind of person who doesn't take hard things, "It depends on whether you have important skills."

Such provocative words made Nangong Xuyao squint his eyes, and he directly called the bodyguards in. On an occasion like today, he is not suitable for doing it by himself.

Soon, two bodyguards came in front of Ye Leng'an, and they were about to go forward to **** Ye Leng'an's bag.

It's just that, to everyone's surprise, one of the bodyguards just reached out to Ye Leng'an. A throwing knife shot directly at his palm, and then penetrated his palm. There was a blood hole in his palm, and the blood kept flowing down.

The bodyguard couldn't help but hugged his hand and gritted his teeth in order to suppress the cry of pain that was about to yell.

At the same time, a clear voice with magnetism sounded, which shocked the people present.

"I see who dares to touch her?"

A faint sentence, even without any ups and downs in the voice. But it made people hear the seriousness and seriousness in the words, and, just a simple sentence, people couldn't help but surrender.

As the voice sounded, a man in a wheelchair appeared in the banquet hall. He was pushed by another man like a bodyguard, and slowly walked towards the direction of the conflict.

Although the man was sitting in a wheelchair, he couldn't hide his outstanding appearance and noble aura. The clean and fair face is sharp and indifferent; the dark and deep eyes are full of charming color; the thick eyebrows, high nose, and beautiful lips all exude nobility and elegance. Wearing a well-tailored suit on his body gave him the domineering aura of an emperor.

The person who came was naturally Huangfu Ruiling, and his wheelchair soon stopped beside Ye Leng'an.

Seeing the person coming, Ye Xiyuan couldn't help frowning. She had met this man a few times before, and although he looked outstanding, he was definitely not within the scope of her mate selection. No matter how outstanding a person is, as long as he is in a wheelchair, she will never consider it.

She didn't expect that the other party would come over on such an occasion as today. Presumably, it was for Ye Leng'an! I really don't know what's so good about this Ye Leng'an that can make the other party take it to heart.

No one noticed that the moment Huangfu Ruiling appeared, Nangong Xuyao's pupils shrank involuntarily, and the surprise on his face could not be concealed. Obviously, he didn't expect to meet him on an occasion like today.

"Who are you?" Ye Li didn't know Huangfu Ruiling, so when he saw him appear, he was naturally very upset, "Who let you in? We shouldn't have sent you an invitation letter! Also, did you hurt the bodyguard? Who gave you the guts to hurt someone here?"

The tone was almost aggressive.

Although the man in front of him doesn't look like an ordinary person, but now the man is obviously on Ye Leng'an's side, that is his enemy. Moreover, no matter how powerful that man is, he is just a cripple. Now that he has the support of the young master of the Nangong family, he will naturally not be afraid of a person in a wheelchair.

"Why, can I still hurt this bodyguard?" Huangfu Ruiling ignored Ye Li, but looked at Nangong Xuyao, and said directly, "Nangong Xuyao, do you think so too?"

The familiarity and naturalness in that tone stunned everyone present. No one thought that this man who appeared suddenly knew the young master of Nangong, and even called him by his first name.

Looking at the appearance of the young master Nangong again, it seems that he is not angry, but rather dignified.

"Young Master Huangfu is serious." Nangong Xuyao said quickly, "It's just a bodyguard, and if you teach him a lesson, you will be taught a lesson. He must pay the price for offending Young Master Huangfu."

He never thought that he would meet Huangfu Ruiling here. The Huangfu family ranks first in the family, and its strength surpasses that of the Nangong family. Moreover, unlike the Nangong family, although Huangfu Ruiling is the young master of the Huangfu family, almost all the power of the Huangfu family is now in Huangfu Ruiling's hands. The name is the young master, but in fact, he has the power of the patriarch. And his current strength is far inferior.

The people present immediately widened their eyes when they heard the surname Huangfu. You know, being able to see the young master of the Nangong family here is enough for them to be shocked. Now even people from the Huangfu family of the first family have come, and according to the name of the young master of Nangong, this is still the young master of the Huangfu family.

My God! They just came to attend a birthday dinner today, and they actually met two characters that they almost never had the chance to get in touch with in their entire life.

However, it is obvious that this Young Master Huangfu did not come to Ye Xiyuan's birthday dinner. No matter how he looked at it, he seemed to come to support Ye Leng'an.

Speaking of it, who would have thought that Ye Leng'an would have such a chance. Originally thought that after she was kicked out of the Ye family, she would completely miss out on high society. Who would have thought that after leaving the Ye family, she would actually climb onto this thick and tall branch.

Now, the members of the Ye family will regret it.

"I just came in, and I remember seeing the young master of Nangong, who seemed to be going to search my family hard!" Huangfu Ruiling's tone was indifferent, but what he said made people feel cold, "I don't know what wrong she did to be treated like this?"

Ye Leng'an on the side couldn't help but rolled her eyes, she really wanted to refute, who is from his family! However, when she realized that her name was still on the other person's household registration and her guardian was still the other person, she decided that silence was golden.
