“Seven million plus another zero to the digit, isn’t that… 70 million?”
Everyone present was shocked by this number.
A small bracelet like that actually cost such an astronomically high price!
Wu Lingshan’s face was already red with embarrassment and anger. Every word from Yu Keqin felt like a slap on her face.
Even Luo Chenxi herself was shocked.
A bracelet worth 70 million…
Such prodigal habit! That wiped off her queries about the person behind the jewelry gift, it had to be Mu Yichen.
Why on earth did he buy her something so expensive?
Yu Keqin glanced at Wu Lingshan with disdain as he walked toward Luo Chenxi, his composure instantly became as warm as spring breeze.
“Miss Luo, if you like Bao Shi’s jewelry, please don’t hesitate to give me a call. I’ll have someone attend to you with the products at your residence for you to pick out the ones you like. This bracelet isn’t the only global limited edition product that we have. There are many other jewelry of outstanding designs, I’m confident that they will be to your liking.”
Luo Chenxi took the business card that Yu Keqin handed to her and watched him leave.
She still felt somehow mentally defeated.
How did she get married to such a huge spendthrift? That was 70 million down the drain without any warning!
“Xing Chen.” Sheng Yu looked at her in bewilderment. “What on earth is going on?”
To the third young master of the Sheng Family, 70 million was not really considered an astronomical amount.
However, based on his impression of Luo Chenxi, she looked nothing like a daughter of a wealthy family, yet she was able to get her hands on a jewelry so expensive all because Wu Lingshan’s slandered her…
Was this not just unbelievable?
Luo Chenxi laughed dryly. Before she could say anything, the door of the exhibition hall got violently pushed open.
A few young men in police uniforms came rushing in.
“What’s going on? We received a report that there was a theft on an object worth seven million RMB. Can anyone explain the details?”
The police who had not been arriving all this time suddenly appeared before everyone at this moment.
Sheng Yu walked forward. “Officers, apologies. We’ve already investigated and resolved the matter here. I’m sorry to have wasted your time…”
“Who said that the matter has been investigated and resolved?” Zuo Xiaoqing squeezed out from the crowd. “Officers, someone among us stole a diamond bracelet but refused to admit her misconduct. I sincerely urge you to investigate the matter carefully!”
Sheng Yu frowned and his black eyes filled with anger. “Zuo Xiaoqing, what do you mean? There’s already evidence to prove that the bracelet is fake. What more do you want?”
Zuo Xiaoqing felt a little guilty under his piercing gaze.
However, she briefly recalled that she was definitely getting eliminated from the competition, and that her hopes of the assistant position that Wu Lingshan promised had also dashed.
Thus, she made up her mind and tried to press her luck, she said loudly, “The bracelet might be a replica, but aren’t the diamonds on it real? She could be looking to make money off these diamonds. Moreover, the surveillance footage clearly showed Xing Chen getting close to the booth. So, is there anyone who can prove that she didn’t steal it?”
Since Zuo Xiaoqing’s future was already ruined from this point onward, what right did Luo Chenxi have to be able to do so well?
She was definitely going to drag Luo Chenxi down to the grave with her!
The police officer got confused by their conversation. He then frowned and asked, “So what’s going on? Has there been a theft or not?”
“Yes!”
“Yes!”
Zuo Xiaoqing blurted out her answer, but she did not expect someone else to answer the same.
She turned around in confusion and got immediately stunned.
The other person who answered with her was Luo Chenxi!
Luo Chenxi walked to the police officer and said with a smile, “There was indeed a theft that happened here. Although the sum involved is no longer as high as seven million, we must still investigate the matter carefully! Thieves must not exist on the Huafeng Competition’s ground!”
Zuo Xiaoqing widened her eyes and could not believe her ears.
Sheng Yu raised his eyebrows in surprise. However, when he saw the calm expression on Luo Chenxi’s face, a hint of amusement flashed across his pitch-black pupils.
“That’s right. There can not be thieves in the Huafeng Competition… Well then, I’ll have to trouble the few police officers here to attend to this matter.”
The police officers immediately began their investigation.
After looking at the surveillance footage and asking around for statements…
“Miss Xing Chen, from the looks of it, you are the biggest suspect. We’ll have to trouble you to come with us to the police station.”
Hearing this, Zuo Xiaoqing became overjoyed.
Great! Luo Chenxi was finally going to be in big trouble!
