Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly

Chapter 137 The CEO’s Cousin in a Workplace Story (51)

"Ma'am, something happened."

Following Li Yue's low cry, the smile on Lin Xi's face faded. She looked at herself in the mirror, sighed, and knew that this wedding was going to have some twists and turns.

Sure enough, when Li Yue saw Lin Xi's smile disappear, a trace of guilt appeared on her face. She gritted her teeth and continued, "The ring is missing."

An occasion like today's would make Li Yue, who is usually cold in front of outsiders, panic. Of course, she would not have any other ring except the wedding ring that would be used in the ceremony later.

Lin Xi patted Li Yue's hand soothingly, asking her to calm down first, and then explain what happened. Li Yue took a deep breath and quickly explained what happened.

As one of Lin Xi's few friends in China, Li Yue was invited to be her bridesmaid. Naturally, the wedding ring to be used in today's ceremony would be kept by her and handed over to the flower girl and presented to Ye Huai and Lin Xi when the ceremony began.

That ring was specially customized by Ye Huai. Not to mention the design fee and time cost, the diamonds on it alone are worth several million. Li Yue naturally dared not relax at any time when holding such a valuable ring.

But who could have thought that when she went to get a glass of water, the ring in her bag disappeared. The key point was that the surveillance camera in the lounge was broken at this time, and there were no witnesses. She didn't even know where to start looking.

What a coincidence? When Lin Xi heard her say that the surveillance camera was broken, she had a vague guess. When Li Yue finished speaking, she looked at the guilty look on her face, and her heart became even colder.

She thought for a moment, then leaned over to Li Yue's ear and said a few words to her. After listening, Li Yue was stunned at first, then a look of indignation appeared on her face. She patted her chest and walked out angrily.

Because Lin Xi was wearing a wedding dress, it was difficult for her to move around, so she found a chair that would not mess up her skirt and sat down, waiting quietly for Li Yue to bring someone over.

Meanwhile, Lin Yurou, with a smug look on her face, took out a box from her bag, opened it, took out the ring lying quietly inside, and sneered, "You stupid girl, you still want to fight with your mother? I don't think you can get married without the ring." After saying that, she was ready to put the ring, which looked very valuable, on her hand.

But at this moment, the door lock of the lounge suddenly rang. Lin Yurou was startled and quickly put away the ring and put it into her bag. A few seconds later, the door was opened from the outside. Li Yue had a fake smile on his face. When he saw Lin Yurou, he didn't say much. He waved his hand, and several tall and strong bodyguards in black came in behind him and spread out to search the room.

Seeing that they didn't take him seriously at all, Lin Yurou's face suddenly changed and she said sternly, "What are you doing! Can't you see that the head lady of the Ye family is here?"

Her voice was sharp, but no one in the room paid any attention to her. They searched the entire room on their own, and then a few people shook their heads at Li Yue.

Li Yue snorted coldly and cast her eyes on Lin Yurou opposite her. "Today is a great day for our president and his wife. Madam, please don't be too happy. Our wife wants to have a private talk with you. Please come with us."

"What a joke. Just because she tells me to go, I have to go? I don't have a daughter like that." Seeing her attitude, Lin Yurou understood that Lin Xi knew that she had taken the ring, and was preparing to find her to hold her accountable.

"You are not kind, but our lady is very filial. Ladies and gentlemen, please ask Madam to go ahead." Li Yue didn't want to waste words with her, so she waved her hand and signaled several bodyguards to go forward and ask for someone.

"How dare you! I'm Ye Huai's aunt, the biological mother of that dead girl, how dare you attack me!" Lin Yurou was frightened when she saw several burly men approaching her. She couldn't help but clench the bag in her hand, but she still shouted in a timid manner.

Several bodyguards moved without stopping, walked forward, helped Lin Yurou up with a respectful but firm attitude, and led her out the door without giving her a chance to refuse.

……

"Lin Xi! How dare you! I'm your biological mother, and you let these stinky men touch me!" As soon as the two met, Lin Yurou screamed loudly.

"You all go out." Looking at Lin Yurou who looked like a mad woman, Lin Xi said to everyone calmly.

Li Yue walked at the end, worry was obvious on her face. Seeing her like this, Lin Xi felt a little warm in her heart, and then gave her a comforting smile. Only then did Li Yue close the door reluctantly.

"Hand it over." Looking at Lin Yurou's distorted expression, Lin Xi didn't want to argue with her too much, so he went straight to the point.

"What are you handing over? Lin Xi, don't think you can do whatever you want just because you marry Ye Huai..."

Lin Yurou naturally would not admit it. However, before she could finish her excuse, Lin Xi walked up to her, snatched the bag from her hand, took out the box containing the ring, raised her hand without hesitation, and slapped Lin Yurou hard in the face.

"Ah!" Lin Xi's movements were smooth and without hesitation. Lin Yurou had no chance to dodge at all. It was not until she felt waves of burning pain on her face that she suddenly realized what was happening and screamed.

"You dead girl, you actually dare to hit your own mother, I'm going to kill you." Lin Yurou covered half of her face which was quickly becoming red and swollen, and was about to pounce on Lin Xi.

But Lin Xi was no longer the little girl who allowed her to beat and scold her powerlessly. The moment she rushed over, she quickly moved aside. Lin Yurou was unable to react in time, and because of her unstable center of gravity in high heels, she fell directly to the ground and fell heavily.

"Ah!" A piercing pain came from the knees and the base of the palms. Lin Yurou could not help but let out a scream. Her vision went dark and she no longer had the strength to curse.

"I really don't understand. I am obviously your biological daughter. Why have you treated me as an enemy all these years?" Looking at Lin Yurou lying on the cold floor in a miserable state, Lin Xi finally asked the question that the original owner had always wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask.

It took Lin Yurou a long time to finally regain consciousness. She tried several times to get up, but finally gave up because of the severe pain in her knees and palms. She turned over and sat down on the ground.

Just when she was angry, she heard Lin Xi's words. All the old and new hatreds surged up in her heart. Her eyes flashed with extreme disgust. She spat fiercely and said, "Bah! What biological daughter? You are just a jinx who came to collect debts! If it weren't for you, would your damn father have abandoned me? And he made me poor and destitute for so many years!"
