Chapter 165: Slandered As A Thief!

Translator: Nvoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“What do you have to be proud of? You’re just a woman from a poor background. If you didn’t play tricks and snatch Lu Zhi away, Kexin would have become the Young Mistress of the Lu family!”

Tao Niannian came down angrily and pushed Jiang Yining.

Jiang Yining lost her balance and the box in her hand fell to the ground.

Kacha.

The lid was opened, and the antiques and jewelry inside fell to the ground.

The people present were all people of status, so they naturally studied these things. They could tell the value of these things at a glance.

Most people were jealous.

Jiang Yining was really a sparrow that had turned into a phoenix. She could easily obtain so many precious things.

Tao Niannian was stunned.

Chen Kexin looked at those things and subconsciously said, “You stole these?”

Lu Zhi did not stay in the old mansion all year round and rarely left anything at home.

Chen Kexin knew everything about him.

And these things were priceless…

It was definitely not Lu Zhi s.

At this moment, the old man was not at home. Who would give Jiang Yining these?

Chen Kexin was certain that Jiang Yining was a thief.

When Tao Niannian heard this, she gloated, “A leopard can’t change its spots. You’ve already married into the Lu family and become a respected Young Mistress, but you still can’t change your bad habits. You actually went to your own house to steal things. If this were to spread, the entire A-City would probably laugh their teeth out!”

Everyone heard their conversation and began to whisper.

“As expected, she’s from a small family. Iler hands are dirty. 1 really don’t know why Lu Zhi would like her.”

“That’s right. Recently, there have been endless rumors about her, and none of them are good news…”

“Thief, how can such a person be worthy of being rhe Young Mistress of the Lu family?”

Jiang Yining remembered everything they said. With a cold face, she walked up to Tao Niannian and said, “Pick it up.”

Her gaze was devoid of warmth, and her words were filled with coldness.

In the next second… she was about to attack Tao Niannian,

Tao Niannian gulped and said, “I’m nor picking it up. A thief like you should be sent to prison and punished! Why should I pick these up?”

As she spoke, she took out her phone and aimed it at the antiques and jewelry on the ground. She took more than ten photos in a row.

She raised it proudly and exclaimed, “This is the evidence!”

She turned her head and shouted at Chen Kexin, “Kexin, what are you still standing there for? Call the police immediately. The amount of money involved in her theft is enough for her to spend the rest of her life in prison!”

Chen Kexin picked up her phone and hesitated for a moment before calling the police station.

“Hello, there’s been a theft at our house…”

Tao Niannian turned around and was about to mock Jiang Yining again.

But before she could say anything.

Jiang Yining raised the box in her hand and slammed it on her head.

Tao Niannian tried to take the box down in a flurry.

However, Jiang Yining did not give her a chance at ail. She pressed her head down, grabbed her arm, and threw Tao Niannian over her shoulder.

Pa!

Tao Niannian fell to the ground and screamed.

The others rushed forward and helped her up.

There were also a few people who wanted to settle scores with Jiang Yining.

“What’s wrong with you? Speak properly, don’t hit her!”

“That’s right. If anything happens to Niannian, I won’t let you off!”

Various voices rang out continuously.

Jiang Yining said in a deep voice, “If anyone dares to say another word, you will end up exactly like Tao Niannian right here!”

As soon as he said this, it was instantly quiet.

Jiang Yining picked up the things on the ground one by one, put them into the box, and was about to leave when Chen Kexin mustered up her courage and stopped her.

“You can’t leave. If you don’t explain the source of these things, I won’t let you go.”

“Get lost.” Jiang Yining opened her mouth and squeezed out two words.

Chen Kexin’s face was stiff and her eyes were full of humiliation, but she had no intention of moving away.

Just as the two of them were confronting each other, footsteps came from the door, and there was the faint sound of Old Master Lu talking to someone.

Chen Kexin was the first to react. She ran to the door of rhe living room and happened to bump into Old Master Lu. She opened her mouth and complained, “Grandpa, you’re finally back. Yining took something from the house and didn’t explain clearly what it was used for. She even beat Tao Niannian up. Please quickly deal with her.”

When Old Master Lu heard this, his smiling face became a little awkward.

The man standing next to him frowned when he heard this.

“What did you say?”

“Yining, she…” Chen Kexin turned her head and saw a handsome and calm man staring at her. His blue eyes were like top-notch sapphires, exuding a charming charm.

She could not help bur be stunned.

“Kexin, this is Gu Zhanqing, from rhe Gu family in the capital city.” Old Master Lu reminded.

“So it’s Mr. Gu. My apologies for the disrespect.”

Chen Kexin came back to her senses and realized that the person in front of her was a big shot. She immediately brushed her hair and greeted him appropriately.

Gu Zhanqing asked again, “Hid you just say that Yining took something from the house?”

Chen Kexin nodded and stole a glance at the old man.

She knew that her grandfather was biased towards Jiang Yining.

But today, in front of outsiders, especially a powerful person like Gu Zhanqing…

Grandfather should be able to handle this matter fairly, right?

“Maybe Yining was in a hurry and didn’t have time to inform the family? Grandpa, you should ask. If we can help her, we should try our best.” Chen Kexin deliberately disguised her malice as kindness.

Of course, Old Master Lu had to go and take a look. He strode towards the living room.

In the living room, Tao Niannian was supported by a few people, but her waist still hurt. She cursed Jiang Yining inwardly.

“All of you, stop her. When the police arrive, let her explain to the police!”

Today, all of them were her good friends.

Of course, they stood on her side and blocked Jiang Vining’s path.

Jiang Yining couldn’t be bothered to fight with them and just stood there.

Old Master Lu entered and saw this scene.

He asked, “Yining, what happened?”

Jiang Yining heaved a sigh of relief when she saw someone familiar. However, before she could open her mouth to explain, her gaze landed on Gu Zhanqing, who was following closely behind.

She did not expect him to really come to the Lu family!

“Yining?” Old Master Lu called out again.

Jiang Yining suppressed the complicated emotions in her heart and said, “Grandpa, this is mine. They touched it without permission and accused me of stealing. Just now, they even called the police station and said that they wanted to get me arrested.”

“Don’t lie so obviously, okay? With your background, how could you possibly own these precious antiques?” Tao Niannian pointed at the box and said, “Grandpa Lu, open the box yourself and see what’s inside!”

Old Master Lu secretly blamed Tao Niannian for overstepping her boundaries.

This wasn’t the Tao family’s house, and she was bossing Yining around.

Did she really think that there was no one left in the Lu family?

However, he couldn’t be too biased towards Yining in front of everyone.

He had to clarify this matter, or else Yining would be branded as a thief.

Old Master Lu asked, “Yining, what’s inside?”

“Some antiques and jewelry.” Jiang Yining didn’t want to expose Shen Man, so she didn’t explain too much. She said, “Grandpa if you don’t believe me, you can ask everyone in the family if anyone lost their things. As long as someone stands out and says that the things here are theirs, I will immediately go to rhe police station and surrender myself.”

“Child… this is such a trivial matter, why do you have to bring this matter to the police station?”

Old Master Lu didn’t want to blow things up.

Chen Kexin said softly, “I heard from the maid that Yining didn’t bring anything when she went in just now. When she came out, she had brought such a big box. Grandpa, there should be surveillance cameras at home. Why don’t we take a look at rhe surveillance cameras and see where she passed by? Wouldn’t we know where these things came from?”

“There’s no need to check rhe surveillance cameras. I said that these things are all mine.” Jiang Yining said seriously.

“You don’t dare to let us check the surveillance cameras because you’re afraid that people will find our that you stole something.” Tao Niannian said sarcastically.

Old Master Lu glared at her.

Looking at the helpless Jiang Yining, anger appeared on Gu Zhanqing’s face.

This was the place she had tried her best to escape to?
