Chapter 117: Eternal disaster
Ye Linlang immediately snapped out of his daze and scolded, "What are you looking at? Hurry up and help search!"
The servant looked away in alarm and followed the butler in searching the room—but this time, he was like a headless fly, aimlessly searching for the bracelet.
About ten minutes later, the butler came towards the door with two servants.
The door was so narrow that Zhou Shuhui's view was blocked by the person in front of her. She vaguely saw the butler walking over and immediately asked, "Did you find anything?"
The butler shook his head: "The bracelet was not found in the room."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Shuhui suddenly looked at Ye Linlang, questioning him with her eyes.
Ye Linlang couldn't care less about Zhou Shuhui anymore. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and was about to speak when He Suye spoke first: "Have you searched carefully? Don't miss anything. Oh, right, I haven't checked myself yet. Could you all please leave first and leave a few girls downstairs to help me search to see if I'm hiding anything?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Linlang's dark eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had remembered something very important. He said, "There's no need to search the clothes, that would be too impolite. Just check the handbag."
The reason he lingered was because he had secretly slipped something into He Suye's handbag. However, this wasn't a bracelet, but something that could ruin He Suye's reputation.
If He Suye hadn't brought it up herself, he would have almost forgotten the "surprise" he had prepared for her.
Looking at Ye Linlang's expression, He Suye's eyes flashed with a cold light. She asked with a half-smile, "Really, you only need to check the handbag, and not the clothes?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Linlang felt a sudden pang of panic, but he was absolutely certain that he had put the "thing" into He Suye's handbag.
Although the bracelet incident had inexplicably gone wrong, he still had a backup plan. In any case, it was something that could ruin He Suye's reputation. If this plan succeeded, He Suye would also be "finished."
Ye Linlang suddenly regained his confidence. He smiled deeply and nodded, saying, "Yes, just check the handbag."
"Okay, you said it yourself, it's not that I'm not cooperating with your inspection." He Suye said, taking her handbag and walking towards the transparent coffee table in front of her.
The moment He Suye opened her handbag, she caught a glimpse of Ye Linlang's cold smile out of the corner of her eye. She curled her lips in a mocking smile, opened the handbag, turned it over, and all the contents fell onto the transparent coffee table in the room.
Everyone craned their necks to see.
All that fell out of the bag was a lipstick, a set of keys, and a makeup cushion compact; nothing else.
Ye Linlang's eyes widened.
Something?
What did he deliberately slip in there?!
Why all this random stuff?!
Ye Linlang was almost spitting blood. His plans for today had failed one after another, from the initial invitation to the current handbag. He was almost starting to doubt his life.
Zhou Shuhui quietly tugged at Ye Linlang's sleeve and asked in a low voice, puzzled, "Where are the things you prepared? Where are they? What's the meaning of those things?"
Ye Linlang's face was dark and gloomy. He lost his temper and pushed Zhou Shuhui away. He strode towards He Suye and, as if he didn't believe it, rummaged through the contents of her bag.
But it was empty inside, there was nothing there.
"Why did this happen?!" Ye Linlang blurted out in frustration and anger.
Why did this happen? Because I sensed something was wrong early on, and after thoroughly checking her entire body and the entire room, I finally found two things. Either of these two things could have led to her utter ruin.
While thinking this to herself, He Suye maintained a calm expression and followed Ye Linlang's words, asking, "Mr. Ye, what do you mean by that? What do you mean by 'why'? Do you think I have something in my bag? Why do you think that?"
Ye Linlang's face turned from black to white, even his lips were pale. He realized that He Suye must have known everything all along, but she deliberately went along with their act just to see them make a fool of themselves!
Ye Linlang was trembling all over, which was very abnormal.
Zhou Shuhui guessed that Ye Linlang's plan had failed, so she immediately walked up and pulled Ye Linlang aside, smiling apologetically at He Suye and saying, "The matter has been clarified, Miss He. You definitely didn't take the things. I'm so sorry for offending you just now."
He Suye smiled faintly: "Miss Zhou, don't forget to come and apologize another day."
Zhou Shuhui's palms were cold, and she forced a stiff smile: "Of course."
Ye Linlang's plan failed, but the charade had to continue. Otherwise, if they only investigated He Suye, wouldn't it be obvious that she and Ye Linlang were secretly plotting against He Suye?
After checking the areas visited by the other guests who had immediately passed through the lobby, the remaining guests, separated by gender, were quickly checked.
The male guests were checked in a group, while He Suye stood leisurely at the door waiting. Suddenly, a commotion erupted inside, followed by a maid running out shouting, "The bracelet has been found!"
Zhou Shuhui's face stiffened, and she subconsciously looked at He Suye beside her.
He Suye smiled slightly at Zhou Shuhui and said in a cool tone, "Congratulations, Miss Zhou, on finally finding your beloved bracelet."
She no longer called herself "Xiao Hui," but instead reverted to being addressed as "Miss Zhou."
Zhou Shuhui couldn't help but tremble. She was puzzled as to why her hands and feet felt cold even though He Suye had such a gentle smile on her face.
"Miss, the bracelet has been found!" The maid ran forward with a smile and handed it to Zhou Shuhui, looking like she wanted to take credit.
Zhou Shuhui took it coldly without even looking at it and asked, "Where did you find it?"
The maid replied, "It was found on Young Master Ye."
He Suye said thoughtfully, "Could it be that the person who gave Miss Zhou the bracelet was Young Master Ye? That's really unbelievable. But no matter how much you guard against it, it's hard to guard against a thief within your own family. Miss Zhou should be more careful in the future."
“You…” Zhou Shuhui felt a lump in her throat, and her face turned pale with anger.
People around Zhou Shuhui kept casting complicated glances at her face. Zhou Shuhui had to suppress her anger and explained in a seemingly casual manner, "I suddenly remembered that when I was playing with my brother earlier, I was afraid of losing the bracelet, so I put it on him first. I was so flustered that I forgot about it."
"Oh?" He Suye asked, puzzled, "Did you forget in your haste, or did Mr. Ye forget in his haste as well?"
Zhou Shuhui broke out in a cold sweat and stammered, "He didn't notice when I put it on him..."
He Suye smiled and said, "I see! It's a good thing you accidentally put it on Mr. Ye. If you had accidentally put it on me, wouldn't I have become a thief?"
Zhou Shuhui was seething with hatred inside, but could only force a smile: "Hehe..."
However, Zhou Shuhui had much more to hate than that. Over there, Ye Linlang was practically being escorted out of the examination room by several men.
Zhou Shuhui was taken aback and quickly said, "You've got it wrong. My brother isn't a thief. I accidentally put the bracelet on him. Please let him go!"
“Miss Zhou, we didn’t grab him because of the bracelet, it’s because of this thing.” The customer said, throwing a lump of something on the ground with disgust.
Upon seeing what it was, the women present immediately looked at Ye Linlang in shock.
