Tyrannical Tycoon Haunts Me Relentlessly-Chapter 518: Worth It or Not? (3)
Xia Yinian left, feeling utterly disheartened.
Gu Lingqian, however, watched the direction in which Beicheng’s car disappeared, deep in thought.
"Brother Ling, shall we not leave?" Already in the car, Xia Yinian rolled down the window and looked at him.
"Alright, let’s go."
It was then that Gu Lingqian came back to his senses, got into the car, and had Nan Shen start the vehicle.
He always felt that Uncle’s behavior just now was a bit strange. Could he really be a man willing to bend his pride for Yu Wanqing?
As a man himself, he could clearly feel the coldness in Uncle’s gaze toward Yu Wanqing, devoid of any warmth, let alone favor.
How could Uncle possibly do those things for Yu Wanqing? He couldn’t even bear to think about it.
Why did it feel like everything Uncle did... was for Nian Nian?
He wanted the necklace he had picked up to be worn on Nian Nian’s body...
Not sure if he was overthinking, but anyway, Gu Lingqian felt somewhat uneasy.
Sitting beside him, Xia Yinian, with nothing to do, took out her phone and started scrolling through Weibo, only to see a familiar name in the headlines.
"Top socialite bullies her way!"
Why was there such a headline?
Casually clicking on it, she immediately saw countless Weibo posts about the incident, including ones from major influencers with over a million followers.
"God!" Xia Yinian was completely stunned upon seeing it, "The video... our video from the store just now!"
Gu Lingqian didn’t know what she was so agitated about, but upon hearing about a video from the store, a sudden realization seemed to hit him, as if he had guessed Uncle’s intentions.
Indeed, upon viewing the video, it was clear that it showed Yu Wanqing wanting to look at someone else’s jewelry. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Though the sound was a bit distant, it became audible once amplified.
The staff member was explaining, "Sorry, Lady Qing, all these sets have been reserved by someone."
"Who?" Yu Wanqing’s languid voice rang out, "Beicheng, I’m just looking. I don’t want to fight with anyone over it, don’t blame me."
The staff member immediately found himself in a difficult position: "Um, Lady Qing, this set has already been... been reserved, so..."
"Lady Qing, this jewelry set has been reserved by Young Master Ling’s fiancée."
Shortly after, Xia Yinian and Gu Lingqian appeared, with Xia Yinian saying, "If Lady Qing likes it, then she can have it; I’ll just choose something else."
The staff also explained that it was Miss Niannian who had reserved it.
But even at that moment, Yu Wanqing still took the necklace that belonged to someone else.
"What’s the issue? Did I say I wanted it now? I just took a glance; Nian Nian, you can’t be this petty, not even allowing me a look, right?"
The camera was directly facing Yu Wanqing, from a very flattering angle, clearly showing her arrogant demeanor through the surveillance footage.
In fact, there were numerous security cameras in the showroom, and the angle chosen by the person posting on Weibo was the best.
Quickly, the necklace in Yu Wanqing’s hand dropped to the floor. The fall was also clearly visible through surveillance, accompanied by detailed screenshots capturing the moments she deliberately relaxed her fingers, letting the necklace drop, shot very clearly.
There were also Yan Wanqing’s own disparaging words, of which she was unaware, clearly heard:
"Oh my, I apologize, it actually fell to the ground, I am so sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose."
"Really sorry, I truly didn’t do it on purpose, Niannian, it’s okay, it probably didn’t break; have someone fix it for you, you can still wear it."
When she said this, the corners of her mouth were smiling, obviously mocking.
This smiling face was captured too clearly!
