"No."
What?
Qiao Jing froze, her astonished eyes fixed on Zhan Qipei.
No?
"How is that possible?!" Chen Qianqian's face was full of disbelief. She had clearly thrown the bracelet into Qiao Jing's bag just moments ago. How could it not be in Qiao Jing's bag?
"I don't believe it!" Chen Qianqian reached out to snatch the bag from Zhan Qipei's hands.
Zhan Qipei returned the bag to Qiao Jing before her, his expression cold as he confronted Chen Qianqian, "Are you accusing me of protecting her?"
The icy tone made the man's demeanor even more chilling and aloof, sending a shiver through Chen Qianqian.
"No, no. It seems it was a misunderstanding," Chen Qianqian bit her lip, her eyes darting around as she thought maybe when she threw it, it accidentally fell to the ground.
Chen Qianqian searched the ground while sheepishly making her exit.
"Stop," Zhan Qipei called out to Chen Qianqian. "You've forgotten something."
