Chapter 856: 856. Still think the face was not lost big enough

Upon hearing Lin Boyi’s words, the Lin family’s elders nodded in agreement, "That’s true, we were only thinking about the gift shelf and forgot about this. Hurry up and have someone retrieve the surveillance footage."

"Okay."

After Lin Boyi left, Lin Jingshu looked at Lu Moqing and said, "Momoqing, call the police."

"Alright, mom."

Lu Moqing put on a flattery smile and quickly took out his mobile phone to dial the police number.

At this moment, Lin Jingshu’s gaze briefly swept across Yan Yufei’s ashen face before turning to Yan Xu, saying:

"I’ve always been easygoing, as long as nobody steps on my bottom line, I can let it go with a smile. However, if someone dares to target my only daughter, don’t blame me for being rude. This accusation of defamation, I will sue for sure."

As Lin Jingshu spoke with such a resounding tone, Yan Yufei was frightened, her heart trembling uncontrollably.

Others may not know, but she understood clearly how Qiaoxu’s necklace came into her possession.

She found it when she walked out of the restroom, on the way back to the lobby.

She had seen Qiaoxu wear that necklace a few times and recognized it immediately.

Because of being ruthlessly plotted by Qiaoxu on the island and Lu Moqing’s reason, she had always wanted to step on Qiaoxu’s face hard.

Now seizing this golden opportunity, with so many influential people present, it was the perfect time to make Qiaoxu lose face completely.

She had observed there were no surveillance cameras near the gift shelf before she took the opportunity to sneak over and smash the Duan inkstone, and then threw the necklace there to frame Qiaoxu.

She had never thought that there would be surveillance cameras in the hallway.

If the surveillance footage was retrieved, she would be completely done.

At that time, everyone would see how she picked up Qiaoxu’s necklace suspiciously, sneaked away, and then turned around and bite Qiaoxu.

Moreover, once Lu Moqing called the police, some people would definitely capture her being taken away by the police. If the news of her framing Qiaoxu were to go online, along with the previous hot search, she would not be able to continue in the entertainment industry.

At the thought of that, Yan Yufei was so scared that her legs went soft, and she stumbled backward for a few steps.

Seeing Yan Yufei like this, Yan Xu had already guessed that it was really his daughter who had framed Qiaoxu.

Just like Yan Yufei thought, if the surveillance footage was presented, everyone would see his daughter’s ugly scene, and he couldn’t imagine how they would be talked about behind their backs.

At this moment, Yan Xu was also angry at Yan Yufei’s foolishness in his heart, but as his only daughter, he couldn’t just sit by and do nothing. He then said to Lin Jingshu:

"Madam Lin, I think there must be some misunderstanding in between. It’s just a birthday banquet for the old master. Let’s not make it such a big fuss."

Yan Xu’s tone of voice carried an obvious sense of ingratiating and compromise, which was nowhere similar to his previous dissatisfaction with Lin Jingshu.

Even Yan Yufei’s attitude softened a bit now, and her gaze at Lin Jingshu carried a hint of pleading.

They thought that seeing them being so submissive, Lin Jingshu would surely show some respect. However, Lin Jingshu’s cold gaze swept across their faces, and with a hooked smile, she said:

"What misunderstanding? Could you please tell me, Master Yan, whether my daughter’s breaking your daughter’s inkstone is a misunderstanding or your daughter’s false accusation and defamation of my daughter is a misunderstanding?"
