Mu Huan looked at Huo Yuqi and asked, “What’s the matter, my dear cousin?”
“Who are you calling your dear cousin?! Who’s your cousin?!” Huo Yuqi said disdainfully.
“You, of course! Aren’t you my husband’s cousin?”
“I’m your husband’s cousin, but not your cousin. Very soon, my cousin will dump you!” Huo Yuqi, who had received details of Ling Wei’s arrival last night, felt even more certain than ever that Mu Huan’s arrogance was not going last.
“You’re still my dear little cousin-slash-sister before I get dumped. Right now, your sister-in-law is heading off for some good food. Come if you want, I’m picking up the tab. If you don’t wish to come, please get out of the way.”
“You can’t leave! I’ve lost a valuable diamond necklace — it’s a birthday present from my mom and I like it a lot! I lost it in class so no one leaves this place! I’m searching everyone!”
Mu Huan: “…”
Was she actually using such an inferior way to frame her for stealing?
Li Meng thought the same thing too and was speechless.
Everyone knew that her Xiao Huan had married a wealthy man who was exceptionally doting toward her. For her to say that Xiao Huan stole her diamond necklace — was anyone going to believe it?
Everyone in class: “…”
Newbie fellow student Huo, are you saying that Mu Huan has stolen your diamond necklace?
The moment she joined the class, they had known that there was going to be drama between the two girls, but who would have thought it would be this soon?!
Long Feiting, who was seated in the back row, stared at Huo Yuqi in speechlessness. He had already told her not to find trouble with Mu Huan since she was no match for the girl. But still, she had used such an inferior tactic to try to frame her.
She was going to end up being a laughingstock!
Huo Yuqi looked at Mu Huan and said provocatively, “Do you dare to let me search your bag, then?!”
“What need is there to search? Seeing how confident and certain you are, I’m sure your diamond necklace is in my bag. If you insist I stole it, I did it, then,” Mu Huan said.
Everyone in class burst out laughing. This fellow student Huo is too childish! This is such an obvious setup of planting and framing!
Seeing that Mu Huan not only did not deny it or protest that she had been wrongly accused but actually admitted it, Huo Yuqi was immediately stunned. It was no wonder Long Feiting had said that she was not easy to deal with! Indeed, she wasn’t!
She had given in so easily that even if they were to find the necklace in her bag, no one would believe that she had stolen it!
However, Huo Yuqi’s target wasn’t Mu Huan!
“The way you say it is as if I’m planting the object and framing you!”
“Isn’t it so?” Mu Huan raised her eyebrow.
“Of course not! Why would I want to plant the object and frame you? What benefits do I get from framing you?! I only want to get my lost necklace back!”
Huo Yuqi put on a look of complete innocence.
Mu Huan narrowed her eyes.
Would this person only be satisfied when she was able to fish the necklace out of her bag?
“Well, do you dare to let me search your bag, then?!”
“Why would I not dare? Search all you like.” Mu Huan placed her bag on the desk for Huo Yuqi to search as she pleased. In any case, even if she were to find the necklace in her bag, no one would believe that she had stolen it from Huo Yuqi, and they would only feel that such a move was inferior and obvious.
“And you, hand your bag over for me to do a search!” Huo Yuqi pointed at Li Meng.
“Sure!” Li Meng placed her bag on the desk for the search.
Everyone thought that Huo Yuqi was out to create trouble for Mu Huan, but they were all wrong.
Huo Yuqi wanted to find trouble with Mu Huan, but she did not target Mu Huan. Instead, she had targeted Li Meng!
