Guilty Conscience

Hao Yun, who had always gotten along well with Wu Yue, approached them from the back. "I saw you leaving the classroom last and you looked rather flustered. One look and I could tell that you have a guilty conscience."

Ye Xue was confused by the questioning. She looked at Wu Yue and Hao Yun and explained, "I didn't steal your wristwatch. I don't even know what your wristwatch looks like."

Wu Yue said, "Then let me search your bag. We will know whether you've stolen it once we search it."

Although Ye Xue was introverted and had low self-esteem, she was also stubborn. "I didn't steal it. Why should I let you search my bag?"

The students crowded around as if they were watching a show.

"Hey, did Ye Xue really steal something?"

"Probably. Ye Xue is always so quiet. Who knows if she's a thief or not?"

"Wu Yue's watch is worth tens of thousands of dollars. I heard from her last time that it's worth a lot even if you resell it."
