After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.

A middle-aged woman, perhaps moved by compassion, couldn't help but ask, "How can you prove you didn't steal it?"

Someone nearby pulled her aside, but the middle-aged woman still said, "I think she looks like she's been wronged."

"The evidence is conclusive, so what's the point of accusing someone of wrongdoing?"

"Yes, don't be fooled by her. To clear her name, she's capable of anything, let alone swearing a solemn oath."

The middle-aged woman hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's call the police."

He paused for a moment, then comforted Wang Ma, "Don't worry, if you are innocent, the police will clear your name."

Fear appeared in Wang Ma's eyes. Could the police really clear her name?

She was wrongly accused back then, but in the end all the suspicion fell on her. The interrogation in the interrogation room still feels like a nightmare to her.

No one believed her, and no matter how desperately she tried to defend herself, she was only accused of lying.

"It wasn't me, it wasn't me, it really wasn't me!" Wang Ma grabbed the middle-aged woman's hand as if it were a lifeline.

The middle-aged woman suddenly felt a sense of mission. "Don't be afraid, talk to me slowly..."

She looked up and saw someone walk in.

Wang Ma looked up at Zhang Xi, her face instantly draining of color. "It's you."

She should have realized it sooner; such a familiar method of framing someone could only be used by the other party.

Wang Ma immediately became agitated, "You're slandering me! Did you instruct her to put the watch in my bag? And you, you're in cahoots with him too!"

The nanny and security guard who were pointed at immediately changed their expressions and jumped up, scolding her for talking nonsense.

Zhang Xi sighed: "Wang Lamei, you're still the same as before, always trying to shift the blame."

"You two know each other?" the middle-aged woman asked hesitantly.

Everyone looked on with curiosity; it was clear there was a story behind this!

Zhang Xi turned to the crowd and explained, "This person was my family's nanny more than ten years ago. She stole my mother's gold bracelet and sold it. My mother found out and called the police, who arrested her. Her family pooled their money and came to our door to beg for her release. My mother took pity on her family and agreed to drop the case and release her. I never expected that more than ten years later, she would still be stealing."

Wang Ma's chest heaved violently: "You're lying! You clearly stole the bracelet!"

Zhang Xi spread his hands and said, "See? Back then, in front of the police, she also tried to shift the blame onto me. I was still in junior high school then, just a kid. Fortunately, the police investigation cleared my name."

Even the middle-aged woman's expression changed, and she shook off Wang Ma's hand, saying, "I hate it when people take advantage of my sympathy!"

"That's so wicked! Stealing money from the owner's house and then blaming it on the child."

"Manager Zhang, you must not let her go no matter what. Call the police and send her to jail!"

Someone has already called the police.

Zhang Xi glanced at Wang Ma without showing any emotion, his heart filled with smugness.

If Wang Ma had been under constant surveillance, he wouldn't have been able to do anything, but thankfully a rest room was arranged for him today.

There were no security cameras in the lounge, leaving the other party with no way to defend themselves.

A lowly old woman dared to say that he would get his comeuppance sooner or later; well, he'll show her what that comeuppance is all about today.

Wang Ma's vision blurred intermittently, and she felt a tearing pain in her chest.

She was trembling with fear when she suddenly remembered something as she grabbed her phone. "I need to find the young lady! I need to find my young lady!"

Yes, regardless of whether others believe her or not, the young lady believes her!

The young lady said she would never believe she was a thief!

"Hello." Upon hearing Lu Sijian's voice on the other end of the phone, Wang Ma's tears instantly rolled down her cheeks.

She suddenly regained her composure from the brink of collapse, and, fighting back tears, whispered, "Miss, could you come out now?"

"Wang Ma, are you crying?" Lu Sijian immediately sensed something was wrong and quickly said, "Wait for me, I'll be right there."

Before the call was cut off, Wang Ma heard someone shouting, "Grandma, wait a minute!"

Wang Ma was a little confused. Why were they calling her "Grandma"? The voice sounded quite old. Weren't these people all high school seniors?

Could it be Professor Wu? That would be wonderful! She knew that with the young lady's talent, she would definitely be valued by the professor.

-

Lu Sijian arrived very quickly, without even washing her hands which were still covered in paint.

Zhang Xi glanced at her, somewhat surprised. Had she gone off to work with the trainees?

Isn't she just being stubborn and saying she can be removed from the list?

"Young Miss!" Upon seeing her young mistress, Wang Ma couldn't hold back her tears again.

Zhang Xi looked helpless: "No, don't make it sound like we're bullying you. You're caught red-handed stealing and you still think you're in the right?"

Just as Wang Ma was about to say something, Lu Sijian grabbed her hand and stopped her.

Lu Sijian: "Alright, it can't be explained in a sentence or two. Why don't we all sit down and talk about it slowly?"

She remained calm and spoke gently. She led Wang Ma to sit down first and took out a handkerchief to carefully wipe away Wang Ma's tears.

Zhang Xi was somewhat surprised, not expecting that Lu Sijian would not fire Wang Ma on the spot, but would actually defend her.

He had a hunch; the young girl was soft-hearted and probably wanted him to make an exception for her.

Zhang Xi laughed heartily and invited everyone to sit down and talk.

Having been a manager for a year, he was best at conducting meetings, and since this was his home turf, he felt he should take the initiative.

"Actually, this matter isn't a huge deal, but it's not insignificant either; the amount stolen is over a million..."

"Wait a minute." Lu Sijian looked up and interrupted him, "Where is the stolen goods?"

Zhang Xi placed the watch on the table and sighed, "She must have recognized the brand of the watch, which is why she was tempted and took the risk."

Lu Sijian took out the box of gold beads from Wang Ma's bag. "She can string gold beads together and play with them, why would she steal your watch?"

Zhang Xi narrowed his eyes: "This box of gold beads of yours is only worth tens of thousands of yuan. Besides, these gold beads are yours, aren't they?"

He didn't know Wang Lamei well; she was stingy and petty. He was short of money at the time and wouldn't even give him the latest model phone.

She takes so much of his salary, yet she doesn't know how to please him, this young master.

"This piece of jewelry can sell for a million on the secondhand market, so what's a few tens of thousands of dollars worth of gold? After this job, we'll have enough for a down payment on a house," someone said sarcastically.

Lu Sijian wasn't annoyed and replied with a smile, "You seem to know the ropes."

She paused, then suddenly leaned back in her chair and cut to the chase, "Tell me, how did you conspire to frame Wang Ma?"

She still had a smile on her face, but her eyes turned sharp.

Zhang Xi didn't expect her to suddenly change her attitude. "You can't just believe Wang Lamei's side of the story. She has a history of theft..."

"Alright, I know you're the mastermind," Lu Sijian interrupted him.

She glanced at the nanny and the security guard, and said with a smile, "I'll give you ten minutes. You two can report each other and expose each other. I'll consider it a meritorious service for you to atone for your crimes."

Zhang Xi was completely enraged by her attitude and slammed his hand on the table. "You're too arrogant!"

They even denounced and exposed each other. Who does she think she is, that she can turn others against her with just a few words?

They really don't know their own limitations.
