Chapter 469: Chapter 469: Pretending to Be Strong on the Verge of Death
The onlookers just thought the two of them were beyond saving, still being stubborn even when facing impending doom.
At this moment, a woman in her thirties approached the two, looking at them and said, "Ladies, you’d better stop being stubborn and admit it! Otherwise, the consequences will be severe."
"Oh? Really?" Lan Shan raised an eyebrow lightly, "I really want to know what the consequences would be."
A glint of brilliance flashed in her eyes, as she was certain she hadn’t done such a thing and despised the idea of doing it.
The reason she hadn’t left was because she wanted to see how they would resolve the situation eventually.
Seeing her nonchalant demeanor, the woman shook her head, "Ah...young people these days, always courting death. Of all people, you chose to offend the Beichen Family."
Upon hearing this, the two exchanged a smile, looking at her with a pitying expression.
They couldn’t help but wonder...if the people here knew that not only did they know the Young Master of the Beichen Family...one was even the biological mother of the Young Master, and the other a godmother...would they be shocked?
The thought was amusing.
The two continued their discussion, completely ignoring the peculiar glances from those around them.
Ten minutes later, the floor manager, along with the salesperson, and an unfamiliar woman walked over with unpleasant expressions. The saleswoman was holding a tablet.
When they arrived in front of the two, the unfamiliar woman stepped forward, looking down at them, speaking in a tone that was neither good nor bad, "Ladies, are you sure you didn’t take anything?"
The conversation stopped, and they looked up at her, "Who are you?"
The woman glanced at them, and that look was particularly unpleasant, "I’m the manager here. I’m asking you one last time, are you sure you didn’t take anything? Please think carefully before answering."
"And then?" Lan Shan raised an eyebrow. Her face still held a faint smile, showing no signs of nervousness.
"It seems the ladies are adamant about not saying anything?"
Ye Xinluo: "What do you want us to say?"
"If you don’t want to say anything, then I’ll show everyone something." She turned, nodded at the salesperson.
Shortly after, the salesperson opened the tablet in her hand, displaying it to everyone. The footage showed Ye Xinluo and Lan Shan standing in front of the counter, looking at some items.
Because the video had no sound, it only showed the salesperson taking a pair of earrings from the showcase and handing them to Lan Shan, saying something unknown.
Soon after, they put the items back in the box, and the video ended there.
After watching it, everyone was confused. Had they misunderstood these two people? The video clearly showed them putting the item back.
"What’s going on? They clearly put the items back, and yet they say the items were taken. Isn’t this slander?"
"That’s right, I clearly saw the items being put back into the box, and now they’re claiming that the items are missing."
"What if the salesperson took them and framed these two? It’s not impossible."
Listening to the surrounding people change their wording, Lan Shan just smiled, looking up with a faint smile at the manager, "Can we leave now?"
"Let them go already! Coming out for a good time and being wronged like this would make anyone feel aggrieved."
"Exactly, and they should apologize before leaving. This is slander, plain and simple."
The crowd kept talking, but the two of them just listened quietly without saying a word...just a moment ago, these people were joining in on demanding they hand over the items.
