Quick Wear: The fishing beauty counterattacks and rises to the top
Chapter 29 Green Tea Flavored Female Anchor (27)
Wen Shiyun pursed her lips, took a deep breath, and simply poured out everything in her bag in front of everyone: tissues, lipstick, keys, and wallet.
Things were scattered all over the floor, and there wasn't a single piece of jewelry.
"How could it be?" Wu Xinyu's eyes widened, full of disbelief, "I clearly..."
Ning Yuzhi was also a little panicked. If she failed this time, it would be difficult to find another opportunity in the future. She gritted her teeth and thought of something.
"Wait a minute, let me help take a look. There might be some secret compartment or something." Ning Yuzhi stepped forward and volunteered.
Seeing her confident look, Wu Xinyu also said, "Yes, then let Yuzhi come. She is also a friend you know. It's fair."
"Really? No one would want to secretly put anything in here, right?" Wen Shiyun lowered her eyes slightly, hinting at something, but did not immediately reject the woman's suggestion.
"Don't talk nonsense."
Without continuing to talk to her, Wen Shiyun handed her the bag. Ning Yuzhi took the bag and rummaged through it for a long time.
Ning Yuzhi: [Transfer the sapphire to this bag. Credit, system.]
This is a system she had just activated. In order to make Wen Shiyun unable to stay here in the future and let everyone know her true face, she must destroy it.
System: [Due to limitations in the world's rules, there's no way to directly transfer the original item. I can only temporarily copy a new one. Are you sure you want to buy on credit?]
Ning Yuzhi hesitated for a moment: [Confirmed.]
System: [If you are unable to repay the points within seven days, all benefits granted by the system will be permanently invalidated.]
System: [Already redeemed.]
Ning Yuzhi rummaged around as if she had found something. She took out a sapphire from her bag and placed it in front of her. "Hey, what is this?"
There was an uproar all around.
[I didn't expect the female companion brought by the Yu family would be such a person.]
[I heard he's just a livestreaming influencer, no wonder he's not on the stage.]
[They even dared to steal things from the Wu family. I wonder what their family does.]
【...】
Wu Xinyu immediately stepped forward proudly, "See, I told you that you stole it, but you pretended that you didn't. You're not only a thief, but you're also dishonest."
"Brother Yu, you see clearly what kind of person she is. I said she is someone who covets other people's things."
"Besides, Yuzhi told me that her family is in a lot of debt, and she must be trying to steal my things to pay off the debt."
She tried her best to discredit her, showing no mercy, and even wanted to beat her into the ground.
"Okay, stop talking." Yu Zeyu glanced at Wu Xinyu coldly, then glanced at the people standing around him. "No matter what, did you invite so many people to watch a joke?"
Hearing this, Wen Shiyun, who had been silent, raised her head and asked softly, "Don't you believe me either?"
Just like a lamb surrounded and helpless, it wants to find someone in the wolf pack who is willing to protect and trust it.
Yu Zeyu looked at her, "Is it important?"
Yes, the male protagonist's affection may not be enough for him to believe her unconditionally. Wen Shiyun wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Wu Xinyu.
"Well, now that we've found the evidence, there's no need to say anything more. What we did was done. No need to quibble."
Wu Xinyu was a little impatient. "I never thought you would do something like this at my birthday party. You were brought here by Brother Yu. Are you worthy of him?"
"I didn't." Wen Shiyun bit her lip lightly, her pale face revealing a bit of stubbornness.
"You still say—"
"Miss Wu's birthday party was such a mess, it really opened my eyes."
A scattered voice came from downstairs, with a hint of sarcasm.
Everyone turned around, looked at the owner of the voice, and unconsciously made way for him.
The man walked forward with steady steps. He had just returned from the racetrack and hurried over in a white shirt. He didn't expect to see so many people criticizing her.
"Who are you?" Wu Xinyu had never seen this man before.
The man's appearance was no worse than her brother Yu's, but she didn't like him just because of what he said. "It's my birthday party, my house, I didn't invite you, how did you get up here?"
She was as arrogant as ever, with a strong smell of driving people away, as if she was very dissatisfied with what he had just said. "Besides, she stole my things and I caught her, so she deserved it. What reason do you have to help her?"
"So what?" The man's brown eyes were a little cold, and even the look he gave Wu Xinyu was a little cold.
His tone was casual, but the words he said were extremely wild.
"Whatever you take, I'll give you a better one. If you take one, I'll double it and give you another. Even if she takes everything in this room, I can still afford it."
Even the only son of the Yu family was not as arrogant as him. The noble ladies around him could not help but take a deep breath and began to discuss who this man was.
A lady who recognized the man moved aside and took away a few people she was close to, and whispered,
"This is General Song's recently recovered son, Song Liren. It's said his father sent him to an isolated island, where he lived alone for over three months before he was brought back."
"He has a very wild personality. He once single-handedly took down a gangster den in Zhejiang and Hunan. His family has both meritorious service and industrial property."
"If you really want to argue, General Song's power is even greater than Old Man Wu's. That's why he's even more lawless and doesn't follow the rules. But he happens to be a member of the Red faction, so even his father can't control him."
"He built his current company single-handedly. He's said to have seen blood and is not to be trifled with."
When the people around heard this, they couldn't help but step back, for fear that they would be remembered by this person and cause trouble.
But everyone had the same question: how did this woman know the young master of the Song family?
It's impressive enough to be associated with the only son of the Yu family. It's really not easy.
"You!" Wu Xinyu was a little furious. She saw that her good thing was about to be ruined. Even if no one explained it to her, she would know that the man in front of her, whose eyes couldn't hide the wildness even with gold-rimmed glasses, was not someone she could afford to mess with.
Wen Shiyun's eyes, which had been slightly reddened by the crowd, became even more aching after hearing the man's unconditional words of protection. Tears welled up in her eyes, and it seemed as if they would fall in the next second, but she quickly held them back.
She bit her lip, mustered up the courage to take the so-called sapphire from Ning Yuzhi's hand, and opened it in front of everyone, especially Wu Xinyu.
"If I did it, I did it. If I didn't do it, I didn't do it. I don't bother to do such things."
"Ms. Wu, take a closer look. Are you sure this is the sapphire you mentioned?"
Wu Xinyu then turned her gaze to the sapphire in her hand. In an instant, the expression on her face changed significantly, with a hint of hidden panic.
She didn't check carefully when she saw Ning Yuzhi take out the sapphire just now. Now she knows that this sapphire is not hers at all. But now... the arrow is on the string, can she change her mind at the last minute?
"There are differences in quality and value between sapphires. I'm not an expert, but I've learned a thing or two. This one is worth at most a million, not even ten million. Are you sure it was given to you by Mr. Wu?"
The light was bright, making her face look as clear as moonlight. The look in her eyes was fragile yet strong, contradictory yet full of charm.
Wu Xinyu gritted her teeth secretly and glanced at Ning Yuzhi. She turned away in panic. How could she not know what was going on?
But now, even if the sapphire is not hers, she must say it is. Things have developed to this point, and she can't just let it go.
"Yes, this is the one I'm looking for."
"But this is just a sapphire ornament that fell off the clothes I put casually in the company's locker room." Wen Shiyun said with certainty.
Wu Xinyu retorted, "One second you said it was worth a million, and the next second you said it was a work of art. Aren't you just talking nonsense because you've been caught and can't defend yourself?"
"Many of the ladies and rich girls present here don't even have the basic ability to appreciate gemstones and distinguish between good and bad, real and fake, right?"
She did not prove herself, but walked around in front of others with the sapphire in her hand, showing it off openly.
The ladies who usually loved to collect jewelry were silent. They could tell at a glance that this was just an ordinary handicraft. How could it be Mr. Wu's collection?
Snippets of discussion began to emerge.
Song Liren sneered, "You used this deceptive gem to frame someone, aren't you ashamed?"
Brown eyes looked casually at the other silent man, Yu Zeyu, who was standing in the spotlight and taking the lead, with a hint of meaning.
"People from the Yu family, can't you understand such a small thing?"
Wen Shiyun's lips curled up slightly.
She actually took advantage of an opportunity. She had clearly hidden the sapphire at the corner of the table, but Ning Yuzhi was so eager to ruin her reputation that she forced something that shouldn't have appeared in her bag.
The system for delivering this auxiliary function has limited energy and cannot be unlimited.
She saw the weirdness of the sapphire at a glance, so she allowed the situation to continue to escalate. It would be better for her if it expanded to the maximum.
Yu Zeyu naturally knew at a glance whether the so-called sapphire was real or fake. He ignored the man's slightly provocative words and looked at Wu Xinyu and Ning Yuzhi with his dark eyes.
Wu Xinyu felt Yu Zeyu's cold eyes and couldn't help but panic. She stepped forward and grabbed the man's clothes, trying to defend herself.
"No, Brother Yu, I just didn't see it clearly, but no matter what, my things are indeed missing-"
"You can wrongly accuse someone just because they're missing?" This was the first time the man spoke so rudely, and it was to the daughter of his old friend.
Wu Xinyu's eyes suddenly turned red, her rationality disappeared, and her tone became higher.
"It's her, it's her, I don't care, it's her, she's the only one who has entered my room!!!"
Song Liren seemed to be tired of watching this spoiled young lady's drama. She looked around lazily, walked straight to the corner of the dressing table in front, picked up a blue gem, smiled softly, and threw it towards Yu Zeyu.
Yu Zeyu lowered his eyes slightly, said nothing, and took it neatly, with unexpected tacit understanding.
Yu Zeyu placed the sapphire he had received in front of Wu Xinyu. "I found it. Can we stop this farce now?"
The tone was cold, Wu Xinyu remained silent, lowered her head and stopped talking.
"Other onlookers, if you don't want to affect our future cooperation, I suggest you leave as soon as possible." The gentle and polite words came out of the man's mouth with a bit of coldness, and then it became a direct threat.
"If even a little bit of what happened today gets out, no one will ever accept the Yu family's invitation to cooperate again, and the cooperation we have agreed with you gentlemen or my father will be invalidated."
The scene was so quiet that even the sound of the strong wind blowing against the windows outside could be heard, and the atmosphere in the house was dark.
The people gathered together nodded heavily and left the scene without stopping as if someone was chasing them. Ning Yuzhi also took advantage of the chaos and left with everyone.
Yu Zeyu looked at Wen Shiyun, his black eyes filled with apology, "I... I'm sorry for making you feel wronged."
"I've indeed been wronged, but I also clearly see my place in your eyes and heart." Wen Shiyun forced a smile, adding a hint of sarcasm and hurt. "When I was in school, I was isolated, framed, and misunderstood. Everything seemed like a daily occurrence."
Yu Zeyu's eyes dimmed slightly, and a dull pain came from an unknown corner of his heart.
Even though he wanted to help her solve the problem, he seemed to have done something wrong by not expressing his absolute trust in her at the first time.
The woman's words made him feel like he was about to lose something precious. He tightened his hands that were hanging by his side.
"I often ask myself if I've done something bad to anyone, something unforgivable, and everyone's malice seems to be directed at me for no reason."
"Knowing I'm allergic to pollen, they'll pour water soaked with fresh flowers on me, lock me up in a deserted place for the entire day, and accuse me of being a gold digger if someone pursues them. There are even worse things..."
As Wen Shiyun spoke, her voice became more choked with sobs, and each word she spoke was filled with a clear and pure confusion.
"I was wondering if I wasn't doing well enough. If I changed and became more positive, I might be able to pursue what I want."
"But when it happened to me again, it was still full of malice."
Wen Shiyun turned and looked at Song Liren, tears in her eyes, but she smiled brightly, "Thank you, Song Liren, no matter why you helped me."
It was rare for Song Liren to seriously look at this fragile yet strong woman in front of him. He felt very unhappy. He reached out to ruffle the woman's hair and pressed her against his chest.
"Crying is ugly, laughing is even uglier. If you're unhappy, just leave. Don't bother looking at anyone's face."
The man's lazy smile did not reach his eyes, and he felt inexplicably irritated in his chest, as if he was angry at the woman for being treated like a soft persimmon and being manipulated by others and having his emotions affected.
Her brown pupils narrowed slightly as she looked at the man opposite her provocatively. Even though the two of them hadn't spoken, she could sense the tense atmosphere between them.
Yu Zeyu felt a tightness in his chest, and for a moment he wanted to go forward and pull the woman away, but he seemed to be controlled by something and stood there unable to move.
Wu Xinyu's hand was clearly pulled away by him, but the guilt in his heart prevented him from moving forward.
His heart seemed to be divided into two people, with reason and emotion pulling at him.
If the person crying now was not her, he wouldn't feel even a ripple in his heart.
However, he had to admit that she was indeed special to him, Yu Zeyu.
