Chapter 1593 - Kneel Down and Apologize
"You"re lying! I didn"t!" Fang Hua"s face instantly turned livid when Butler Xu exposed her in public.
"Stop quibbling, Young Madam. You were clearly the one who instigated it. No matter how greedy I am, I know the importance of your ring. How could I dare to steal it? You were the one who wanted me to put the ring on Guan Meiyi"s body. You were also the one who wanted me to call the Elders to invite them over. Your goal was to make Guan Meiyi lose face in front of everyone." Butler Xu looked at the police and Old Master Gu as he said, "I have a witness. I asked Xiao Yao to put the ring into Guan Meiyi"s pocket under the pretext of falling down. But I don"t know why the ring came back to me. I really didn"t steal it! I really didn"t!"
At this moment, the maid who was responsible for searching Butler Xu"s room came back with a small box in her hand. Inside the box were all kinds of jewelry and treasures.
"Oh my G.o.d, isn"t that my diamond bracelet?! I thought I lost it, but I never expected that you stole it!" Gu Zhihuan exclaimed, then pushed Gu Zhiming. "Second brother, look, isn"t that your watch?"
Gu Zhiming took a look, and saw that it was really his watch. "It really is. I thought I lost it somewhere, but I didn"t expect it to be lost by you! Police, arrest him!"
At this moment, Butler Xu"s face was ashen in front of the evidence. However, he still refused to admit that he had stolen the ring and the jade slip.
However, none of this was important now. He had indeed stolen the other things. Just those things alone were enough for him to go to jail for a long time.
"Alright, stop talking. Let"s bring him back to the police station first!" A few police officers pulled Butler Xu up and handcuffed him.
Guan Meiyi looked at the man coldly and asked softly, "Butler Xu, who am I now?"
Butler Xu froze and the corners of his lips trembled. In the end, he didn"t say anything. He lowered his head with a defeated expression and was taken away by the police.
"Remember your words. I am Guan Meiyi." Guan Meiyi"s voice came from behind Butler Xu, and his body suddenly trembled.
The people present obviously didn"t understand what Guan Meiyi meant when she said that to Butler Xu, but they weren"t in the mood to pursue the matter now.
The jade slip, Fang Hua"s ring, and the things that were found later were all taken away by the police as evidence. At this moment, in the dining room, everyone was staring at each other, but no one said a word.
Guan Meiyi"s bright eyes glanced around, and in the end, she said to Gu Zhiqian in a coquettish voice, "Hubby, can we continue eating this meal? I"m so hungry..."
Gu Zhiqian pinched Guan Meiyi"s chin lovingly, and his eyes were as bright as stars as he said, "Of course. Take the plate away. We can serve the next dish," Gu Zhiqian said to the servant who was in charge of serving the dishes.
The servant quickly served the next dish of soup. Gu Zhiqian and Guan Meiyi sat down as if there was no one else around and continued to drink the soup.
Old Master Gu"s facial expression was sulky as he said, "Sit down and eat."
After all, there were other people present, so they had to bite the bullet and eat this meal.
Fang Hua sat down with a pale face. Just as she picked up the cutlery to eat, she heard Guan Meiyi"s voice.
"Sister-in-law, there seems to be something you haven"t done yet." Guan Meiyi"s eyes were bright as she looked at Fang Hua with a smile.
Fang Hua"s body trembled, and she asked with an unhappy expression, "What is it?"
"Sister-in-law is really forgetful. Did you forget what you said so quickly?" Guan Meiyi smiled innocently, but what she said made Fang Hua shudder. "Sister-in-law, you said it yourself. If I didn"t take the ring, you would kneel down and apologize to me.
