Chapter 378: Chapter 359: Finding Puzzle Piece-IHer grandma, Mr. and Mrs. Xie, turned their heads toward Li Lian who walked closer to them. Following from behind was Li Jun Wei. On the other side, He Chang Min and Xie Hue Lin was busy with the arrival of Mrs. He, didn’t know what happened.
"What’s wrong Li Lian?" asked Senior Mrs. Xie when Li Lian stood beside her.
"I think I lost my ring," Li Lian whispered with her brows furrowed. "But I didn’t let it out open from my fingers."
"What kind of ring is it?" Li Jun Wei asked, seeming to be wanting to help and Senior Mrs, Xie took a couple of moment to stare at him.
"It is ring with a pink jewel. I receive the ring from someone very important to me," Li Lian spike the last words in whispers and once again Senior Mrs. Xie lifted her chin up to look at Li Jun Wei whose eyes was first at Li Lian before moving toward her and smiled.
"We should
Mr. Xie looked at the maid with wide eye. He thought it was foolish that this to happen in the party and that there would be no maid who would be stupid enough to steal but she did.
"What?" Xie Hue Lin gasped, her eyes looking at Qing in disbelief. How could this maid steal right now when there was a party? And to steal from Li Lian. She was digging not only her own grave but hers because she was the closest maid she had!
"N-No! I didn’t steal, I don’t know how they appear in my pocket!" Qing said, begging for Mr. Xie’s faith to her but when Mr. Xie saw the rings falling from the maid’s hands, he wasn’t in the mood to be kind any longer. He was furious to the maid who now made him lose face in front of Li Jun Wei!
"I don’t think rings could be conjured out from a pocket," Li Jun Wei left a remark in which turn the air terse. "Unless and until someone had took Li Lian’s rings and it is you isn’t it?"
Qing’s eyes snapped wide to Li Lian in time it turned to a glare, "No she must have been the one who placed the rings inside my pocket!" The maid tried to be cunning but then she felt a chill when Li Jun Wei laughed. Not only Qing was stunned by the sudden laughter but everyone on the room was also startled.
Li Jun Wei brought his hands together, clapping very slowly as if he was admiring what was transpiring against his eyes, "A thief calling the victim the thief?" Li Jun Wei who was sitting with his legs crossed leaned his body forward, his eyes staying on Mr. Xie. "Not only did there was a maid in the house who steal, she blamed the guest who had her rings stolen to be the thief for no reason? Your house is very entertaining Mr. Xie. I have never seen such a shameless thief."
The maid saw how the eyes that believed her for a split of moment turn hostile again toward her. She fell to the ground hoping anyone would be moved by her action, didn’t do it please believe me! I have worked here for eight years and I never steal anything why would I steal something now?"
"Seeing how you are able to take Miss Li Lian’s rings from her hands without her notice, I could tell that you are a very excellent thief who had stolen many but never been found out by anyone. But your luck has run out now." Each of Li Jun Wei’s words made others to believe the otherwise from the maid.
"I have never steal anything from the house, if I do anyone would find out!" said the maid who then recalled Li Lian’s words when they first met and slowly understood that it was Li Lian who had put the rings on her pocket to frame her.
"Then let’s prove your innocent, should we?" Li Lian stood up, pushing himself from the chair. "It seems like this evidence is not enough yet for you to confess. We can investigate her room. If she steals we should be able to find something from her room."
