CHAPTER 971: CHAPTER 115: REMEMBER TO AVENGE ME

Chapter 115

"You jerk! How many times have I told you not to do this? You just won’t stop. Get back to where you came from. I don’t want to keep you around." Yan Yuan was almost infuriated by this fellow.

Yu Heng, dizzy from the shaking, said, "Your Highness Yueyue, I’m helping you find the lost thing. Please let me off this time."

"Let you off! And will you still mess around next time?" Yan Yuan could hardly believe this guy.

However, sending her back was not realistic.

After all, her own abilities had not yet recovered.

"I won’t, I can’t promise that." Yu Heng cried miserably.

Yan Yuan released her and said, "Hurry up and help me find it. Miss Su’s necklace is missing. If you find it for her, I’ll have her treat you to something nice."

"Really?" Yu Heng suddenly darted out of Yan Yuan’s hand.

She excitedly danced around, "I want to eat a lot, a lot."

"You’ll eat yourself to death, you little eel!" Yan Yuan didn’t want to deal with her.

Yu Heng wagged her tail excitedly, chuckling, "I’m a Dragon; I won’t die from overeating."

Yan Yuan brought Yu Heng back, where the police were collecting evidence.

Yan Yuan also noticed the people in the crowd.

Most of the girls were watching the commotion without concern.

After all, there were many people here; it’s hard to say who took it.

Coincidentally, the surveillance didn’t capture it either.

"Meili, your brother really loves you. He even gave you such an expensive necklace." Anna stepped forward, looking at the empty jewelry box, jealousy flickering in her eyes.

Comparing oneself to others is truly frustrating.

After mingling in society for so many years, working hard, and dedicating herself, she still couldn’t afford something so precious.

Yet this girl was born a gem, what others couldn’t get, she could have effortlessly.

Su Meili frowned, her heart about to break.

Upon hearing Anna’s words, she retorted angrily, "Of course my brother loves me."

Anna glared at her, thinking to herself that it was only deserved that such a valuable thing went missing.

"Who exactly took it?" At this moment, everyone was whispering.

"Yeah, such nerve. To take Su Meili’s thing, if found out, their life would be ruined."

"That’s just fate. Some people are naturally favored by the heavens. Some people, no matter how hard they try in this life, can never catch up to others."

Yan Yuan stood in the crowd, arms crossed.

Most of the comments were tinged with sarcasm.

It seemed that many were jealous of Su Meili.

This young lady was always so high-profile, making it hard for people not to be jealous.

Yu Heng lay on Yan Yuan’s shoulder, flying invisibly among the women.

Suddenly, she stopped in front of a woman in a blue swimsuit.

Yan Yuan’s gaze also settled on that woman.

She stood in the crowd, clad in a swimsuit, trying to make herself less noticeable.

Yet occasionally glancing around, her hand subtly pressing on her swimsuit top, as if hiding something inside.

Yan Yuan locked her gaze on her and walked over to Su Meili, saying, "Come with me."

Su Meili saw Yan Yuan’s serious demeanor and knew she had discovered something.

"Who did you spot?" As soon as they reached the doorway, Su Meili asked nervously.

Yan Yuan pointed at the woman in the blue swimsuit, "Do you see her? She must be hiding something under her swimsuit top, though it’s uncertain if it’s your necklace."

Upon Yan Yuan’s prompting, Su Meili also noticed the issue.

She stood at the door, observing the woman for quite some time.

The woman in the blue swimsuit seemed to sense Su Meili’s gaze and became even more awkward.

"I know her. She used to always try to cozy up to me, wanting to hang out. Actually, her family doesn’t have much money; her father has seven or eight houses, and the whole family lives off the rent money. She’s always dreaming about mingling in the circles of the wealthy, hoping to marry a rich man. It was her who encouraged me to oppose you to maintain the dignity of a young lady." Su Meili said.

Upon hearing this, Yan Yuan nodded and said, "Then call her to a separate room and see if the thing hidden in her clothes is yours."

Su Meili, being direct, went up and grabbed the woman’s wrist, saying, "Wu Qian, come with me."

Wu Qian was taken aback on the spot.

"Su Meili, where are you taking me?" Wu Qian struggled and resisted.

But Su Meili used brute force, making it difficult for her to struggle too much.

Quickly, Wu Qian was dragged into a separate room.

Yan Yuan was already there waiting for her.

Upon seeing Yan Yuan, Wu Qian’s face changed drastically, uneasily saying to Su Meili, "Meili, why did you call me here? Just say what you want; if you hold me like this, others might think I stole your stuff."

Su Meili let go of Wu Qian and turned around to glare at her.

"Didn’t you steal the stuff?"

Wu Qian, hearing Su Meili’s tone, realized she was suspecting her.

She hurriedly explained, "No."

"Then unbutton your top, let me take a look." Su Meili said directly.

Yan Yuan stood to the side, scrutinizing Wu Qian, and by now she was almost certain it was her who stole the thing.

Yu Heng, perched on Yan Yuan’s shoulder, said, "Actually, I don’t know what the thing inside her clothes is either. But I felt that it had a very strong spiritual energy. I think it’s definitely not an ordinary object."

Upon hearing Yu Heng’s explanation, Yan Yuan felt unsettled.

"So what you’re saying is, you also don’t know if what she’s hiding in her clothes is the necklace?"

"Exactly! But I know what she’s hiding in her clothes is a treasure. And it’s a treasure with spiritual energy."

Yan Yuan: "..."

Given the situation, since Wu Qian was caught, she naturally needed to be searched.

However, illegal searches are not allowed.

"Su Meili, I did not take your thing." Wu Qian shouted angrily.

Clearly, she was already agitated beyond measure.

Because of the scuffle earlier, a section of chain fell from under her bra.

Su Meili instantly recognized it as the chain of her Heart of the Ocean.

She unapologetically stepped forward, grabbed Wu Qian’s arm, and with a tug under her clothes, pulled out the chain along with a large blue gemstone.

At this, Wu Qian was completely dumbfounded.

Yan Yuan also had nothing to say.

Su Meili clenched the chain in her hand, looked at Wu Qian, and snorted coldly, "Tell me, why is this on you?"

"I... I... I...!" Wu Qian stammered for a long time without a coherent sentence, anxiously and regretfully said, "Meili, I found this by the pool. I didn’t take it."

"Why didn’t you return it if you found it? Intending to keep it as your own, you still bear criminal responsibility." Su Meili didn’t want to hear her explanation.

At this moment, any further explanation was merely sophistry.

Especially since the stolen goods were found with her.

Yan Yuan sighed, regardless of how Wu Qian obtained the necklace.

Even if she picked it up, not handing it in is still considered theft.

Unless she could identify the thief.

But no evidence was left at the scene, not even fingerprints on the jewelry box.

It’s all uncertain.

The police took Wu Qian away.

Yan Yuan observed everyone present.

At this moment, Anna sat in the corner, watching Wu Qian being taken away, snorting coldly.

"What a useless fool!"

This failure made it difficult to attempt another heist.

Su Mucheng is much more shrewd than Su Meili.

After this incident, the treasure will be retrieved by Su Mucheng.

Yan Yuan watched Anna’s strange behavior, then turned to Su Meili, "Did you have any contact with Anna earlier?"

"Yes, she came and hugged me. After that, she left," Su Meili said.

Yan Yuan nodded knowingly at her words.

Perhaps the real culprit wasn’t Wu Qian.

She was just being used as a scapegoat.

However, since there was no evidence pointing to Anna, she might have to be let go today.

"Meili, be careful of Anna in the future. I advise you to return the necklace to your brother. If it gets lost again, you might not be able to find it even if you cry," Yan Yuan said.

After all, she realized the necklace was lost just in time today.

If someone had taken the necklace away, trying to find it again in such a large world would not be easy.

Su Meili looked puzzled.

Yan Yuan warned her to be cautious of Anna, could this theft be related to her?

Su Meili sighed, "Really, having such a valuable thing with you requires the ability to keep it safe."

"It’s not too late to understand this now. Quickly return it," Yan Yuan said.

Su Meili clenched the necklace in her hand, full of reluctance.

She hadn’t even worn it to show off, and now she had to return it.

Aowu...

Beautiful things don’t always belong to a beauty, as to prevent loss, it is better kept in the box for admiration.

The culprit was caught, and the party continued.

To avoid any accidents, Su Meili handed the necklace to the butler to have it returned to Su Mucheng.

Only then did Yan Yuan have the time to eat with Su Meili, while also reminding Su Meili to order enough delicious food to reward Yu Heng.

By the poolside, Yan Yuan and Su Meili chatted while eating.

"Shooting starts the day after tomorrow. Yueyue, I will come find you then. Remember to get me some revenge," Su Meili said.
