Chapter 138 Stealing Things
"Junior Sister Lan, this little thing couldn't be from the Cao family, right?" Zhu Yichen whispered.
Spiritual beasts usually have owners. This is the Cao family's gambling stone field, so he felt that it was very likely to belong to the Cao family.
"Not necessarily. There are spirit stones here, they might have come from somewhere else." Xie Jinglan said.
"Okay! You guys are actually stealing things here?" A loud shout suddenly came from behind them.
The three of them exchanged secret glances, never expecting that they were being watched.
They turned around and saw the person coming, and their faces suddenly darkened.
Because these three people are Zhu Hao, Lin Rumei and the third son of the Zhan family, Zhan Yonghua.
Xie Jinglan looked at Zhan Yonghua, who was about twenty-four or twenty-five years old, with a bloated and obese figure, a fat head and big ears, a round face, and a pair of small eyes squeezed under the thick eyelids, with only a thin slit visible.
"How ugly."
That Zhan Sheng does look somewhat similar, but this Zhan Yonghua is simply too ugly to look at. His facial features look like those hastily kneaded by an unskilled craftsman. It's really ugly.
"What did you say, you bitch?" Zhan Yonghua stared at her fiercely with his green bean-sized eyes.
But when he saw her delicate little face clearly, the originally ferocious expression was quickly replaced by a disgusting and vulgar smile, as if it was blown by the spring breeze.
Xie Jinglan has now disguised herself into another look. Although her face is not as beautiful as her original one, it is much prettier than Lin Rumei.
"I said you are so ugly." Xie Jinglan said again.
"How dare you say that to the Third Young Master! Do you want to die?" Lin Rumei's eyes fell on Xie Jinglan's face. She felt that she was a little familiar.
"Step back. You can't talk to a beauty like that." Zhan Yonghua looked at Xie Jinglan like a wild beast seeing its long-coveted prey, with a determination to get it flashing in his eyes.
When Lin Rumei saw his lustful look, she knew that this man had set his eyes on the woman in front of him again, and she gritted her teeth in hatred.
"Third Young Master, don't forget that they just stole something. These people are bad guys. Don't be fooled by her seductive appearance..."
"Pa!" Zhan Yonghua suddenly turned around and slapped Lin Rumei in the face.
"Bitch, are you teaching me how to do things?"
Zhan Yonghua’s slap was quite powerful, and a red slap mark was immediately left on Lin Rumei’s face.
"Third Young Master..." Lin Rumei's tears of grievance welled up in her eyes. She didn't expect that Zhan Yonghua would hit her for a strange woman?
"Senior Brother." She looked at Zhu Hao beside her, hoping he would say a few words for her.
Zhu Hao just darkened his eyes and shook his head slightly at her.
"Little beauty, where are you from? What's your name?" Zhan Yonghua kept staring at Xie Jinglan's face with greedy eyes, rubbing his hands impatiently.
"If you are willing to go back to the Zhan Mansion with me, I will not tell anyone about your theft just now."
Beitang Yuan's aura suddenly turned cold, "You bastard, you're courting death..."
"Junior brother." Zhu Yichen held his hand and shook his head.
This is a gambling stone field. If a fight breaks out, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Xie Jinglan smiled coldly and pointed at Lin Rumei, "Then slap her fifty times, and I'll consider it."
"Are you kidding me?" Although Zhan Yonghua is lustful, he is not stupid.
"If you don't want to fight, forget it." Xie Jinglan shrugged indifferently, holding Beitang Yuan's hand and was about to leave.
"Stop!" Zhan Yonghua shouted, "Come here, these people are stealing things here, quickly catch them."
Hearing this, many people looked over.
A manager of the gambling house heard his words and immediately brought people over.
"Third Young Master, what happened?"
"These three people were stealing things here just now, and I happened to see them. You should quickly arrest them and search them. The things must be on them." Zhan Yonghua pointed at the three of them, with a fierce light in his small eyes.
"We didn't steal anything, he's just talking nonsense." Fusheng stood in front of Xie Jinglan, pointing his finger at Zhan Yonghua and said angrily:
"He was attracted by my young lady's beauty and wanted to take her back to be his concubine. When she refused to go to the Zhan Mansion with him, he accused us of stealing. He is so despicable and shameless."
Seeing Fusheng standing bravely in front of her, Xie Jinglan couldn't help but feel relieved that she had not saved the wrong person.
Just because of his loyalty, we must train him well in the future.
"You little bastard, how dare you talk to me like that? Just wait for me." Zhan Yonghua pointed at Fusheng fiercely with an expression that said, "You're dead."
The manager looked at them and didn't know who to believe for a moment. After all, Zhan Yonghua was notorious for his lust.
Seeing the steward's skeptical look, Zhan Yonghua immediately became unhappy, "What? You don't believe what I said? I'm telling you, I saw with my own eyes that woman use magic to take the things away. If you don't believe me, you can search them."
The manager looked at the raw stones on the table and didn't notice anything was missing.
Because every time a piece of raw stone is placed, there is a price tag next to it. If it is stolen, there will be an empty space on the table, which is obvious at a glance and they will not fail to notice it.
"Third Young Master, since you saw them stealing things with your own eyes, then may I ask, where did they steal the things?"
"Steal what's in there." Zhan Yonghua pointed to the pile of waste in the corner.
“…” The manager was even more confused. How could someone steal these scraps?
He looked at Xie Jinglan. She had an extraordinary demeanor and was accompanied by several servants. She didn't look like a poor person. How could she steal scraps of dozens or even a few taels of silver?
"Miss, what do you say?" the manager asked Xie Jinglan.
Regardless of whether she stole anything or not, since she was reported, the matter must be investigated thoroughly.
"I didn't steal anything. What this little brother just said is the truth." Xie Jinglan denied.
At that time, she was only thinking about catching the spirit beast, so she brought the piece of waste into the space. She had no intention of stealing anything.
The little Jinzi in the space was almost mad with anger. [Master, this pig is so abominable, greedy and lustful. Find a chance to give him some Hundred Days of Laughter!]
"They did steal it. We saw it with our own eyes. Since they don't admit it, search them. The things are on them." Lin Rumei also came out to testify.
"Are you so sure that I stole something?" Xie Jinglan looked at Lin Rumei with murderous intent in her eyes. This woman deserved to die.
"You can search me, but what if you don't find anything?"
"The thing is on you, how could we not find it?" Lin Rumei said affirmatively. She saw it with her own eyes, how could it be fake?
"If I can't find anything, I'll take your life! Do you dare to bet?" Xie Jinglan looked at her coldly.
