The next second, everyone turned sides, demanding the shop apologize to the two of them. Just like they say, "the grass on top of the wall sways with the wind," these people can’t be trusted.
Just as everyone wanted them to apologize, the manager stepped forward, smiled, and said, "The lady in the video did indeed put the item back, but the pair of earrings from our store is indeed missing.
This lady did touch them. Moreover, there’s no evidence in the video of whether you placed back one or both."
Upon hearing this, Lan Shan sneered, "So you’re saying that I took something from your store in such a short time."
"It’s not impossible either."
"You’re the manager, right?" Ye Xinluo looked at her, "People should have principles, and you’ve watched the surveillance where my friend put the earrings back. Why don’t you accuse your own employees of stealing them to defame us?"
"Impossible." The female clerk retorted without even thinking, "Clearly, you two took them, yet you refuse to admit it."
Not wanting to argue with her, Lan Shan pinched her brow in frustration, lowering her tone, "Tell us, how do you want to handle this?"
"The two ladies admit it, then?"
"Didn’t you learn your language lessons well? When did you hear me say I admit it or that I took it?" Lan Shan retorted angrily.
"So what do you mean? Denying it?"
"There’s nothing to admit or deny. I’ve said it many times, I didn’t take it. If you continue to badger us, I’ll call the police."
"Call the police?" The female clerk sneered, "You’re calling the thief to catch the thief? You took the item and still want to report it? How shameless can you be?"
Hearing this, Lan Shan’s face turned cold. She abruptly stood up, her face stern, "I’ll say this one last time, provide evidence before falsely accusing me. Otherwise, stop shouting around me. I don’t have time for your nonsense."
Her cold gaze swept over the crowd, scaring them a bit as uncertainty crept into their hearts.
Ye Xinluo stood up, gently patting her back, "Don’t be angry, it’s not worth ruining your health over this."
Upon hearing this, some of the coldness in Lan Shan’s eyes dissipated.
"Are you really sure it’s missing?" The manager pulled the clerk aside to ask quietly.
"Manager, I’m telling the truth. The item disappeared after they touched it but they refuse to admit it."
Listening to her explanation, the manager seemed assured and returned to the others.
"I just discussed with the store employees, and they also confirmed it went missing after you touched it. How do you explain that?"
"What’s it to me? You can’t keep track of your things and you go around biting people," Lan Shan was getting angry and her tone wasn’t great.
"Madam, please watch your words."
"Oh?" Lan Shan laughed, "Your tone was a lot more arrogant than mine just now, and now you notice my tone is bad?"
Seeing her unwillingness to speak, the manager became anxious... The item went missing in her store. If it isn’t found, she won’t be able to stay here.
Turning around, she looked at the head of staff and spoke coldly, "Call the police."
"Alright..."
Half an hour later, the police arrived at the store and got a grasp of the situation.
"Madam, they’re saying you took something from the store. What do you have to say?"
At this moment, Lan Shan was too annoyed to speak. Sitting beside her, Ye Xinluo spoke up, "Officer, my friend did put the item back, and I can testify to that."
