He could help her get a foot in the door of the prestigious Jinyu Company. It was a dream come true for an aspiring jewelry designer like her! Sisi threw herself into the career opportunity of a lifetime, and as she exchanged barbs with Zeyi, she felt the first stirrings of attraction to him.

Do You Want to Give Me an Explanation?

Editor: Atlas Studios

Wei Ya narrowed her eyes and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that neither Qiao Sisi nor Lin Ya had found the gift bag.

"Qiao Sisi, you didn't find it, right? You two are slandering me here. How could you have found it in my room?"

Wei Ya shouted harshly, looking like she was standing on the moral high ground. However, she did not know that this further confirmed what they thought.

If not for her guilty conscience, given Wei Ya's proud demeanor, she would have called for help.

It was impossible for her to reason with him slowly here. The reason must be that the thing was in the room and Wei Ya had to guard it.

Qiao Sisi glanced around the room and pointed at Wei Ya's suitcase. "Open it."

"Why?!"

Wei Ya snorted and stood by the side, refusing to touch her suitcase.

"Alright, you won't open it, right? Sure, I'll open it myself." Qiao Sisi spoke quickly and opened Wei Ya's suitcase by herself.

As the suitcase was not locked, it was easily opened.

Unlike what Qiao Sisi had thought, the suitcase only contained some clothes and towels. There was no gift bag.

Lin Ya was a little worried. She wondered if anything would happen since they came to Wei Ya's room without any evidence.

"Qiao Sisi, how dare you rummage through my suitcase. Why… Did you find anything?"

Wei Ya almost laughed out loud. She stood by the side with her arms crossed, looking like she was enjoying a good show.

Fortunately, the gift bag is not in the drawer or suitcase, she thought. Otherwise, given how Qiao Sisi searched these places immediately, I would have been found long ago.

"You shut up."

Qiao Sisi shouted and closed the suitcase. She frowned and there were deep lines between her brows.

Where did Wei Ya hide it? she wondered. They had searched all the likely places and Lin Ya had even checked the bathroom. There was no gift bag.

No! There's another place that we've not searched.

Qiao Sisi looked under the bed. This seemed to be the only place they had not searched.

Seeing that Qiao Sisi was looking under the bed, Wei Ya was extremely flustered. Concealing her thoughts, she said, "Since you didn't find it, get lost quickly. I never took your things. If you leave now, I can still let you off. If things get out of hand, no one will look good."

"So you know that your sidekick went to call someone? Why don't you think about how you're going to explain it after the things are found?" Qiao Sisi was so angry that she laughed.

She did not waste time talking to Wei Ya. She poked her head under the bed and saw a gift bag.

"Qiao Sisi!" Wei Ya called out and immediately knelt down to grab Qiao Sisi's hair. Fortunately, Lin Ya was not watching idly from the side. She quickly rushed forward to stop Wei Ya.

Lin Ya and Wei Ya almost fought. Fortunately, Lin Ya had done physical work when she was young and was stronger. After a few seconds, she subdued Wei Ya.

"Sisi, you found it, right? Wei Ya wanted to hit you, but unfortunately, I'm here."

As soon as she finished speaking, she retracted her hand from under the bed. She was holding a gift bag with a ribbon in it.

It was the gift Zheng Zeyi had given her yesterday. As expected, it was stolen by this shameless woman, Wei Ya.

Wei Ya glared at Qiao Sisi, but could not move as she was held back by Lin Ya. Otherwise, she would have rushed forward to snatch the bag back.

"Do you have anything else to say?" Qiao Sisi waved the bag and said coldly.

Wei Ya gritted her teeth but still refused to admit it. "This is clearly mine. Do you think that just because you hold it in your hand, it will become yours? Dream on!"

Qiao Sisi was stunned by Wei Ya's shamelessness.

She thought that Wei Ya was probably the first person in history to act so self-righteous after stealing from someone.

"Not admitting it? Do you think you did it perfectly? You would probably have been caught on the hotel's surveillance camera too," Qiao Sisi said. She thought of the surveillance camera in the hallway.

If nothing went wrong, Wei Ya should have been filmed going to her room.

However, upon hearing this, Wei Ya was not afraid at all.

"Since you're so sure, then go ask the hotel staff and see if I went to your room."

Wei Ya looked confident but Qiao Sisi did not know where her confidence came from.

Either she firmly believes that she has not been captured on the surveillance camera or…

Qiao Sisi pursed her lips and opened the bag to take a look. Fortunately, the book and jewelry box in the bag were still intact. It seemed that Wei Ya had yet to do anything.

"Yili will call Assistant Li over later. We'll see," Wei Ya said with her nose in the air.

There was no fear in her at all.

Lin Ya was a little worried. "Sisi, it should be fine."

"It's alright, don't worry." Qiao Sisi smiled at Lin Ya, her eyes full of gratitude.

If Lin Ya had not accompanied her to Wei Ya's room to look for this bag, she would not have found it so easily.

After all, Wei Ya was not someone to be trifled with.

"What are you doing!"

As the stalemate continued, a voice came from the door. Without looking back, Qiao Sisi knew who it was.

Other than Assistant Li, who was called to the scene by Wei Ya's sidekick, Yili, who else could it be?

When she turned around, she saw Assistant Li looking very serious. Behind her stood the timid sidekick, Yili, who would poke her head out from time to time.

"Assistant Li," Qiao Sisi said. On hearing this, Lin Ya stood up.

Lin Ya quickly let go of Wei Ya's hand and got up to straighten her clothes in disdain.

If not for Assistant Li, Wei Ya might have rushed up to hit her.

"What were you doing just now?" Assistant Li's tone was serious as she walked into the room. Her gaze fell on the various cabinets that had been opened, and her expression darkened.

They were leaving in the afternoon and they actually created this trouble in the morning. How could she be in a good mood?

Wei Ya raised her eyebrows. She complained, "Assistant Li, Qiao Sisi and Lin Ya came to my room indiscriminately and said that I stole their things. They turned my room into what it is now. Do you think they should give me an explanation?"

With that, Wei Ya looked smugly at Qiao Sisi and Lin Ya, a mocking smile on her face.

The two fools are still fighting with me, she thought.

Assistant Li said calmly, "It was Yili who called me over. She said that you guys were arguing. Now… Can one of you explain to me what happened from the beginning to the end?"
