NOVEL NEXT Chapter 632: Speechless!
Everyone gathered around the Porsche stage gasped in shock!
Life imprisonment!
This is a very serious matter!
Such a young and beautiful woman, if sentenced to life imprisonment, her life would be ruined! Just thinking about it is terrifying!
Mu Yanluo was naturally both angry and anxious, feeling like she couldn't defend herself, and she shouted, "Why are you so sure it's me who stole it? I'm innocent, and I'm not afraid of false accusations. Do you have any evidence?"
"Cough, cough, Mu Yanluo, many people here saw it with their own eyes. The Jade Bracelet was found in your locker, so why bother denying it?" the man chuckled.
The car models who came with Niu Juan repeatedly agreed, "Yes, we saw it with our own eyes. We are all witnesses."
"I want to check the security footage!" Mu Yanluo argued persistently, refusing to allow herself to be defamed and humiliated in front of Jiang Feng!
"You're really new here, huh? When did our locker room get surveillance cameras installed? Do your women's changing rooms have cameras?"
Niu Juan chuckled coldly, her face full of sarcasm and a bit of confidence, as if she was fearless.
"Alright, no need to make it so complicated." The man stared at Mu Yanluo's long legs and swallowed, "Mu Yanluo, why not settle this privately? As long as you admit you stole it and sincerely apologize to Juanjuan, I won't press charges."
In his heart, he had his own calculations.
Settle privately?
Want to settle it privately? Sure, let's settle it in bed!
The moment he saw Mu Yanluo, he couldn't suppress the all energies within him.
So tall! So beautiful!
In his life, he'd never had the chance to be with such a type before!
By comparison, Niu Juan was just a mud hen!
Those long white legs, lifting them to the shoulders...
Wouldn't that just be heaven?
At this moment, the event manager of the exhibition, along with security personnel, walked over.
Niu Juan, unafraid of a crowd, quickly approached and vividly described how Mu Yanluo had stolen her Jade Bracelet.
The event manager's expression became somber, "Mu Yanluo, what's going on? Explain yourself!"
"President Ma, I didn't steal anything!" Mu Yanluo argued.
At the same time, Mu Yanluo felt a little sour.
Ever since she followed her brother from the Northeast to establish themselves in Binhai, things had been relatively smooth for her.
Especially as her brother gradually made a name for himself, she had her concerns and dislike, but she had to admit that her brother's influence extended to her.
At school, while her position wasn't high, she was admired by others, and her superiors and colleagues dared not offend her, even being careful to smile at her.
But all of that shattered with her brother's downfall.
She was truly like a phoenix fallen among crows, her job lost, forced to work as a car model, and now being falsely accused of being a thief!
Unable to defend herself!
For the first time in her life, Mu Yanluo truly experienced how difficult and arduous life could be.
A wave of intense grievance, suffocation, anger, and disappointment hit her psychological defenses again and again.
An urge to cry surged within her chest.
She fought hard to hold back her tears, telling herself not to cry!
Especially not in front of Jiang Feng, she mustn't cry!
Otherwise, he would look down on her even more, assuming she was a bad woman!
The event manager glanced at the Bentley key in the hands of Niu Juan's boyfriend, unsure of his background but definitely afraid to offend him easily.
Thus, he continued with a harsh tone to Mu Yanluo, "Mu Yanluo! I don't care if you stole it or not. I'm reporting this to the authorities now! You can explain yourself to them! Also, your pay for today is forfeited!"
"By what right do you withhold my pay? I haven't done anything wrong!" Mu Yanluo shouted in anger, clenching her fists and trembling with rage.
"Heh, look at how you value money above all else. No wonder you'd want to steal such a beautiful Jade Bracelet," Niu Juan sneered, showing off with the Jade Bracelet in a jewelry box, particularly flaunting it in front of Mu Yanluo.
At this moment, Jiang Feng, who had been observing coldly for a long time, finally understood everything.
He said calmly, "I believe Lady Mu didn't steal this Jade Bracelet."
"Hmm?!"
Everyone turned their gaze to him upon hearing this unexpected remark!
"Nonsense! Who are you? What's your relationship with Mu Yanluo, and why are you saying this?" Niu Juan, in her triumphant mood, angrily rebuked Jiang Feng upon hearing such discordant words!
Jiang Feng ignored her, calmly responding, "Because this Jade Bracelet is obviously fake. It's a cheap knockoff you can buy for a few bucks. Why would Lady Mu steal it? If you're trying to frame someone, at least pick a better prop, right?"
In his past travels across the Cultivation Worlds, let alone a mere Jade Bracelet, he'd seen countless Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and his discernment for such items was beyond question.
And Jade artifacts, unlike other things, are filled with Spiritual energy, which he can even convert into Devouring Sky Demon Qi for absorption.
Yet now, that Jade Bracelet didn't have a trace of Spiritual energy. If it weren't fake, what else could it be?
Seeing the expression on Niu Juan and her boyfriend's faces, Jiang Feng understood everything.
"Damn it, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Niu Juan's boyfriend, a hint of panic passing across his face, broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead!
He looked at Jiang Feng with a gaze full of ruthless violence, "Where did this laborer come from? Is this your place to speak? Get lost, damn it! With your pauper look, you think you can appraise Jade Bracelets? Keep talking nonsense, and I'll have someone deal with you immediately!"
The exhibition stage, already chaotic, became even more disorderly with Jiang Feng's assertion that the Jade Bracelet was a fake!
"You..." Mu Yanluo glanced at Jiang Feng, her heart filling with an inexplicable sense of gratitude.
At the lowest point in her life, falsely accused, and becoming the target of public criticism, attacked by the crowd, Jiang Feng stood up unconditionally to defend her when even she was too embarrassed to explain herself!
This kind of gratitude was beyond measure!
She could no longer hold back, her eyes filled with tears!
Jiang Feng glanced dismissively at Niu Juan's boyfriend and sneered, then walked straight towards Niu Juan, "Let me see the Jade Bracelet."
"Do you deserve it?" Niu Juan was initially furious, but upon reflection, realized refusing might make her seem guilty, so she forcefully placed the Jade Bracelet in Jiang Feng's hand, "Take a look! But don't break it, or you can't afford to compensate!"
Then, she instinctively looked at her boyfriend, "Sweetheart, this Jade Bracelet is real, right?"
"Of course, you've personally seen the receipts and appraisal documents, haven't you? How could it be fake?" the man responded confidently, "You believe the words of a lowly laborer like this?"
Though he spoke with assurance, his expression was extremely sinister, as if he wanted nothing more than to snatch the Jade Bracelet back immediately, and the cold sweat on his forehead continued to pour down!
