Soon, the banquet ended, and as everyone was preparing to leave, Zhan Luya suddenly screamed loudly.

"My necklace, my necklace is gone! Quick, everyone help me find it! It was a birthday present from my grandparents. I didn't even have a chance to wear it before it was lost. My grandparents will be so sad."

Zhan Luya was so anxious that tears streamed down her face.

"Ya Ya, I think I know who it is." One of Zhan Luya's friends glanced at Jin Xi and said.

Zhan Luya looked at her friend and gestured for her to continue.

"Just now, a few of us classmates from the same school were chatting together when someone suddenly said they were going to play golf. We all went except for Jinxi. And coincidentally, your bag was left on the chair and you didn't take it with you. So, Jinxi and your bag were together for a long time. And coincidentally, this necklace was lost after the golf game. Jinxi is highly suspicious."

After hearing what her friends said, everyone thought it made a lot of sense, and all turned their attention to Jinxi.

"Don't make false accusations. I didn't take your things. If you don't believe me, you can check the surveillance footage yourself. Stop crying wolf here," Jinxi said.

"Ha, check the surveillance footage? Everyone knows there are no cameras there," Zhan Luya's friend said.

They were convinced that Jinxi had stolen the necklace, and they wanted everyone to know that Jinxi was a thief, so they could see how she would ever be able to survive in the industry again.

"Exactly, and I saw it too. Jinxi sat next to Yaya's bag for a long time. If it wasn't you, who else could it be? You took it, so what? Anyway, Yaya has plenty of necklaces, one more won't make a difference. Maybe if you just openly admit it, Yaya will be merciful and give you the necklace. After all, we're from the same school, so we're classmates." The girl standing on Zhan Luya's other side said smugly, arm in arm.

"I said I didn't take it, and I didn't take it," Jinxi said helplessly in front of so many people shouting at her.

"You keep saying you didn't take it, so prove it to us!" Zhan Luya's friend walked up to Jin Xi, looked her up and down with disdain, and pressed her closer.

A country bumpkin, penniless, this dress is such a waste on her.

"Yes, young lady, just prove it, that's all you need to do."

"That's right, if you didn't take it, you can provide evidence to prove it."

The guests who hadn't left yet but stayed to watch the spectacle also started to chime in, all wanting to see what Jinxi would do next.

Jinxi sneered, "Fine, Zhan Luya, if I didn't take it, you'd better kneel down and kowtow to me to apologize."

"Sure, no problem." Zhan Luya was full of confidence and fearless, because everything was under her control.

She just wanted everyone to know what kind of person Jinxi was.

This is what happens when you always try to outdo others!

Imai then emptied everything out of her bag, and the contents fell to the ground.

Aside from cosmetics and personal items like wet wipes, there was nothing else.

Zhan Luya frowned. What happened? How could it be gone?

Zhan Luya looked at her friend and scolded her for being unreliable.

Fearing Zhan Luya would pursue the matter, the two girls grabbed Jinxi's bag and ripped it in two with a tearing sound, causing the necklace that was stuck in the gap to fall out.

As soon as the necklace was revealed, the guests who had not yet left immediately began to discuss it, pointing and whispering, and saying the most unpleasant things they could.

Jinxi was shocked; how did this necklace end up in her bag?!

The two girls picked up the necklace from the ground and handed it to Jinxi.

"You say you didn't steal it, then what is this?"

Jinxi looked at Zhan Luya, and the provocation and smugness in his eyes were obvious.

Hmph, you always manage to outdo me, you need to be taught a lesson!

"Are you stupid? Say something!" When Jinxi didn't speak, the two girls pushed her to the ground.

Jinxi stumbled several steps before regaining her balance, then elbowed him back, rolled up her sleeves, and struck a fight pose, saying, "If you want to fight, I'm ready to fight to the end!"

The girl who was bumped into by Jinxi glared at Jinxi fiercely, "You..."

Zhan Luya quickly went over, pretended to grab her hand, and said as if they were sisters, "Jinxi, I know you were born in the countryside and your family is poor and you don't have enough to eat, but you can't steal things because of that. You can tell me, and I can help your family."

Jinxi shoved Zhan Luya away, feeling disgusted. "Get out of here, don't disgust me. I've said it before, I didn't steal this necklace. As for why it was in my bag, you'll have to ask yourselves."

Imanishi's sharp eyes swept over the three girls.

It's obvious that this is a trick they're playing on her.

And similar tricks happen quite often in schools.

"What do you mean by that? You mean we put the necklace in your bag?" Zhan Luya, feeling guilty, blurted out in an attempt to deny it.

Jinxi sneered, "I haven't even said anything yet, and you're already rushing to admit it."

"You..." Zhan Luya's expression changed frequently with anger.

Having been caught off guard by Jin Xi, Zhan Luya's face darkened. "Fool! She can't even speak properly. She fell into Jin Xi's trap so quickly."

However, Zhan Luya quickly regained her elegant and graceful demeanor, handed the necklace to Jin Xi, and said, "Jin Xi, if you like this necklace, I can give it to you."

Jinxi slapped the necklace out of her hand, and it fell onto the lawn.

"Apologize to me!" Jinxi stared at Zhan Luya, her aura extremely tense.

"Apologize? Jinxi, are you out of your mind? This necklace was definitely found in your bag, right? Everyone saw it. And you're asking Yaya to apologize to you!" Zhan Luya's friend shouted angrily.

Zhan Luya glanced at her friend, signaling her to shut up, and then said to Jinxi, "Jinxi, this necklace was found in your bag. I don't want to argue about whether you stole it or not. After all, we're classmates, so I'll give you face."

Anyway, she has already achieved her goal. Now everyone is convinced that Jinxi stole her necklace. Next, the news will spread, one person tells ten, ten tell a hundred, and it will reach the ears of marketing accounts. Jinxi will soon face endless online abuse. At that time, what will she have to fight back against her?

"You don't care, but I do."

So what if she comes from an ordinary background? She's still a citizen, entitled to equal legal protection. Why should her reputation be tarnished by them?
