“I didn’t steal anything.” Mu Yao was neither servile nor overbearing. She glanced at An Yingying. “This dress was in her hands just now. Why didn’t you suspect her?”

The salesgirl judged people from their appearance. She looked the way An Yingying and Bai Qiushui dressed. She knew she could not afford to offend them. She wasn’t stupid.

“Miss, if you can afford it, then buy it. If you can’t, then don’t try it. Now, you take something and refuse to admit it. Aren’t you making things difficult for us?”

The salesgirl rolled her eyes as she spoke.

“Check the surveillance cameras. Don’t you have surveillance cameras in your shop? I want to see the surveillance footage.” Mu Yao requested.

An Yingying quickly snatched the bag from Mu Yao’s hand. She poured out all the contents.

A necklace also fell to the ground.

An Yingying immediately stood up.

She had a smug look on her face.

“I told you it was her. There’s a witness and physical evidence. Hurry up and call the police. Don’t let this thief get away. ”

“Don’t. I’ll buy this necklace, don’t call the police,” Bai Qiushui said kindly.

“No need!” Mu Yao interrupted her.

When Mu Yao had just changed back into her clothes, she placed the necklace on the top of the dress and returned it to the salesgirl.

How did the necklace end up in her bag?

Her bag had been left on the sofa when she changed her clothes in the fitting room.

Mu Yao changed back into her clothes. Earlier, the salesgirl had said only two sets of these dresses were in the store. An Yingying wore one before.

Mu Yao thought of something.

She walked over and snatched the bag from An Yingying’s hands.

“Hey, what are you doing?” An Yingying exclaimed.

Mu Yao had already unzipped An Yingying’s bag and quickly poured all her things.

Sure enough.

There was an identical necklace in An Yingying’s bag.

“What is this?” Mu Yao asked An Yingying as she picked up the necklace on the ground.

An Yingying took a few steps back. She was so scared that she couldn’t speak.

“Check the surveillance cameras. Now! I want to know why the necklaces were in both our bags!” Mu Yao ordered as she threw the necklace at the salesgirl.

“Qiushui…” An Yingying started to panic.

The store manager noticed something was wrong and quickly pulled up the surveillance footage.

The surveillance camera recorded everything.

When Mu Yao was in the fitting room, An Yingying touched her bag on the sofa.

Mu Yao changed her clothes and was about to leave. An Yingying took the dress and secretly put the necklace into her bag.

The surveillance footage appeared.

An Yingying took a few steps back unconsciously. Her face turned pale.

“Forget it, forget it. I’ll buy both necklaces.” Bai Qiushui wanted to make peace.

Mu Yao didn’t want to.

“Call the police now!”

“Sister, don’t be like this. I don’t think Yingying did it on purpose.” Bai Qiushui spoke.

“She didn’t do it on purpose? You must have incited it!” Mu Yao interrupted her. “Also, don’t call me sister. I’m disgusted.”

Bai Qiushui froze and looked at her with a pitiful expression.

“How can you be so rude?” An Yingying stood up for Bai Qiushui.

“Qiushui is kind and still treats you as her sister-in-law. If it were me, I would’ve slapped you to death for the things you’ve done.”

Slap!

Just as An Yingying finished speaking, a slap landed on her face.

“Stop barking! Behave like a good dog.” Mu Yao shook her sore arm. “This slap will make you remember that you can’t frame everyone.”

“You!”

An Yingying was slapped by Mu Yao in front of everyone. She couldn’t bear the embarrassment. She was about to pounce on Mu Yao and fight her.
