Yan Jiaren nodded her head. Although she had to wait for someone to e and confirm it, all the surrounding guests had already subconsciously confirmed that the mother-and-daughter pair in front of them were the ones who had stolen the gown.
Ian instant, the crowd erupted in a heated debate…
“Nowadays, thieves are getting bolder and bolder.”
“That’s right. She’s wearing a stolen gown and prancing around. She’s not worried about being caught.”
“Hasn’t she already been caught? I heard they are the wife and daughter of a certain director in Jingdu.”
“The director’s wife and daughter have bee thieves.”
In this isolated and helpless situation, Liang Xiugin looked anxiously and nervously at Jiang Chenghuan, who was the only one she could count on for help. “Young Master Jiang, we really didn’t steal it. It really has nothing to do with us… I… didn’t know that this gown was designed by Miss Yan. If we had
known…”
If they had known, they would never have e to her ball and dug their own graves.
Now it just so happened that they had bumped into each other.
Yan Jiaren turned to look at her cousin and frowned. “Did you invite them?”
The two continued to talk to one another. They did not intend to give anyone a chance to explain themselves.
Jiang Chenghuan nodded and shrugged his shoulders, as if he had also been forced into a corner. “Someone I owed asked me for a favor.”
“So you’re saying that she asked for an invitation for them? What about your savior? You didn’t invite her?”
“If I did, would today have played out like this? Not only does Yun Xi not know you, but she also doesn’t have any motive. Even if I’d invited her, she might not have had the time to e.”
In other words, these two had gotten in through the back door and were not among the invited.
Jiang Chenghuan’s protective words instantly cleared the air about Yun Xi’s relationship with the mother-and-daughter pair.
No matter how dumb the guests were, they understood what was going on. They looked at Liang Xiugin and her daughter with even more disdain and disgust.
It turned out that the two of them had an ulterior motive for stealing the gown. However, they probably had not expected to be caught red-handed on the spot. This was really divine retribution.
No matter what happened, stealing was stealing, and the crime of being a thief could not be erased..
