Chapter 111: She Shut Herself Away...

To put Qiao Yufei at ease, she had no choice but to tell the staff again, “Then let them come over too.”

...

In a corner of the venue, Lin Nanxun sat withdrawn, her delicate face unusually clouded with deep worry.

The villain’s expression just now was so cold, and his voice too. He even said she was immature, as if he really disliked her.

Could it be because of the woman in the lounge?

At the thought of this, Lin Nanxun suddenly recalled that woman’s figure and appearance and shyly lowered her gaze.

She seemed to be quite well-endowed as well...

While Lin Nanxun was feeling miserable and shutting herself off, Ye Ning stood helplessly beside her. Suddenly, Xu Lili from the studio rushed over anxiously.

“Why are you still standing there? Everyone’s been looking for you. Hurry up and go.”

“Looking for us?” Surprised, Ye Ning’s expression shifted.

“Yes. Qiao Yufei said she lost a necklace at Qiao Yucheng’s studio. Since you’ve all been there, you need to go and undergo a search,” Xu Lili quickly explained.

...

“What necklace? How could we have taken it?” Ye Ning’s face showed helplessness. The loss of her necklace had nothing to do with them.

“We believe you didn’t take it either, but Qiao Yufei insists the necklace is important. The boss has no choice and asked me to summon you,” Xu Lili said.

After hearing this, Ye Ning sighed and glanced at Lin Nanxun, who was retreating into herself and ignoring everyone.

“I can talk, but Nanxun... I don’t know what upset her, but she’s been like this since she came back. Something’s definitely wrong.”

They had heard from the boss that Nanxun was somewhat different from ordinary people; her spirit was far more sensitive. Seeing her suddenly like this, Ye Ning was genuinely worried something might happen to her.

Hearing Ye Ning’s words, Xu Lili finally noticed Lin Nanxun.

“Nanxun?” she called tentatively, but it was as if Lin Nanxun hadn’t heard.

Xu Lili sighed helplessly and continued, “Then just stay here and don’t leave, or things will get even more complicated later. I’ll go report to the boss now.”

Ye Ning nodded, and Xu Lili quickly turned and ran off.

...

After hearing Xu Lili’s words, Ron’s face also grew concerned, worried about his young apprentice.

Before he could say anything, Qiao Yufei’s sarcastic voice rang out.

“Not coming? Are you sure it’s not because you feel guilty?”

“I remember now. When I left Yucheng’s place, I ran into two female staff members. Not sure if they were them,” Qiao Yufei said, feigning surprise.

Qiao Yufei’s words irritated even the usually good-natured Ron. Just as he was about to argue with her, Qiao Yucheng, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke.

“It wasn’t them.” His gentle and handsome face was serious.

At his words, Qiao Yufei’s expression changed.

“Yucheng, what do you mean by that?”

“Because I was there the whole time. I know best what happened inside,” Qiao Yucheng said calmly, casting a glance toward the corner of the venue.

Qiao Yufei was so angry she could no longer maintain her smile and looked at Qiao Yucheng in displeasure.

“Yucheng, you can’t be so biased! In the end, this matter depends on evidence. What if my necklace is really found with her?”
