Chapter 127 You Dare to Provoke Me
"You don't have to be so nervous."
Then, she turned her gaze to Mr. Wu, who had already entered middle age, and said with a hint of provocation, "Mr. Wu, you wouldn't do anything outrageous in such a public place, would you?"
Faced with such a straightforward question, Mr. Wu was speechless for a moment and could only nod awkwardly to show his agreement.
Then, his face darkened and his gaze turned to Guo Yingying who was standing not far away. His eyes were filled with icy indifference.
"In that case, we won't interfere in your family affairs. Take Guo Yingying back and let her handle it herself..."
Mr. Wu had just finished speaking when he was suddenly interrupted before he could finish the next sentence.
"Wait a minute, you're saying this as if I'm planning to lynch you, but I'm a law-abiding citizen!"
Su Yuan hurriedly spoke up to correct the other party's misunderstanding. Her expression looked very serious, as if she wanted to emphasize her own position while also not wanting to be wrongly labeled by others.
After realizing that continuing to argue might only cause more unnecessary trouble, Mr. Wu shut up, but his mind was still rapidly running through various strategies, thinking about how to find some opportunities to his advantage in this disadvantageous situation.
At the same time, after carefully observing the people opposite, Su Yuan nodded to Yang Sheng, who was always highly alert beside him.
After receiving clear instructions, Yang Sheng immediately stepped forward without any hesitation or delay because the opponent in front of him was a woman.
He grabbed Guo Yingying's wrist and pulled her up with force, and also carefully wiped his hands with a clean napkin handed to him by the waiter to make sure that no trace was left.
Guo Yingying instantly fell into extreme panic, with unwillingness and fear flashing in her eyes, but when she looked at the people around her, she could only see indifferent or curious faces, and no one was willing to lend a helping hand to her.
In desperation, she tried to plead for mercy one last time: "Sister, you can't do this to me, we are sisters!"
However, this plea did not attract anyone's attention, especially for Su Yuan, it was easily ignored like the wind in one ear and the other.
She simply turned around and started chatting with some friends she had known for a long time, because she knew that private recordings as evidence might still be controversial, but what if many pairs of eyes could confirm everything that happened today?
Then the results will naturally be completely different.
Guo Yingying did not realize the crux of the problem.
She believed that the other party already had all the evidence against her and just wanted to humiliate her.
But even though she knew this fact, she still didn't dare to spoil Su Yuan's fun, for fear that it would lead to more serious consequences.
Su Yuan silently observed Guo Yingying's appearance of admitting her mistakes and submitting, with a hint of indifference and disdain in her eyes, and she didn't say anything more.
In her opinion, such a result was enough to make the other party feel ashamed and regretful.
Yang Sheng tried hard to act scary, trying to make himself appear more majestic and inviolable.
But in fact, his expression seemed a little funny because it was too deliberate.
As time passed, Guo Yingying's defenses were slowly broken down.
Finally, she couldn't help but collapse and cried out: "No! I was wrong, really wrong. I shouldn't have secretly taken the jade bracelet. Don't make me go to the police station!"
The voice was filled with despair and panic.
For a moment, everyone around looked at each other, as if they were all shocked by the sudden scene before them.
Although they had never seen what the old lady's jade bracelet looked like before, judging from Guo Yingying's attitude and the atmosphere on the scene, it was probably a very important thing.
Then some people began to chime in: "Since you've taken someone else's things, just return them!"
"You Zhou family members are just like that, always loving to steal other people's things. Now you're reaping the consequences, aren't you?"
Although these words were spoken softly, each one was like a sharp knife piercing Guo Yingying's heart.
Faced with the accusations and contemptuous looks from the crowd, Guo Yingying could only lower her head, secretly hating Wu Fan for not coming to speak up for her.
Would he choose to stand idly by at a time like this?
Seeing this, Wu Fan seemed a little reluctant and tried to persuade her, "Su Yuan, you've already lost your temper. Why do you have to embarrass your sister in public? She has already realized her mistake."
After hearing this, Su Yuan looked at Wu Fan in surprise, as if he had said something unbelievable.
"What did you say? Can the problem be solved by asking her to admit her mistake? Where is my grandmother's most precious jade bracelet?"
Faced with the questioning, Wu Fan was speechless for a moment, his face turned blue and red, and he looked quite embarrassed.
Finally, after some struggle, he seemed to have made up his mind and ordered the servant beside him to bring a small box from the study.
"Look, here is the jade bracelet you are looking for. It is lying inside intact."
Wu Fan said this with a hint of reluctance and helplessness in his tone.
His tone was cold, but there was a barely perceptible nervousness in his eyes.
Su Yuan took it and looked at it, and saw a white jade bracelet with a warm, delicate and flawless texture lying quietly in the exquisite brocade box.
Suddenly, the memories of my childhood with my grandmother flooded into my heart like a bursting dam.
That familiar feeling, that long-lost emotion, all became clear at this moment, making her heart surge.
Su Yuan pursed her lips tightly and tried her best to control her emotions, but although she appeared calm on the outside, her heart was already burning with rage, as if something was burning fiercely in her chest.
She stared at Guo Yingying opposite her, and the desire to rush up and teach her a lesson or even tear her to pieces became stronger and stronger.
Feeling the fierce gaze in Su Yuan's eyes, Guo Yingying couldn't help but shrink slightly in fear. She lowered her head and dared not look into her eyes again. She looked very frightened and helpless.
After this conflict, Su Yuan's long-pent-up emotions were finally vented and released to some extent, and he felt that the depression in his heart had dissipated a lot.
Recalling that he was actually forced to accept Wu Fan's half-threat and half-inducement to attend the birthday party, I wonder if Wu Fan is feeling regretful about it now.
How dare he mess with me again!
"In that case, we'll take our leave. After all, families like the Wu family seem to particularly like to protect those with dishonest hands and feet. Who knows what kind of shocking thing this young lady will do next time?"
Su Yuan had a sneer on her lips. After saying these meaningful words, she turned around and left with Yang Sheng, her steps firm and resolute.
When the other people at the scene heard these words, they all fell into deep thought.
