Chapter 579 Things Have Blown Up

When she heard Xu Anran’s answer, Old Madam Yin sneered. “Eldest Miss Xu? Don’t spout nonsense. I’m not your grandmother. Xi Xi, since the Xu family can’t tolerate you, come back to the Yin family with me. Let’s see who still dares to bully you!”

Qiao Xi smiled and nodded.

“What’s going on?”.

The few of them looked at each other and asked in confusion, “The Yin family is actually so good to Qiao Xi, the adopted daughter. Earlier, Xu Anran even said that if Qiao Xi wanted to meet Old Madam Yin, she had to introduce Qiao Xi first. Clearly, what she meant to say is that Qiao Xi doesn’t have the qualifications to see Old Madam Yin herself!”

Old Madam Yin looked at Xu Anran sharply.

Xu Anran’s body trembled as she explained while trembling, “Grandma, I… I didn’t say that. It’s… Everyone misunderstood.”

Wen Xi could not stand Qiao Xi’s arrogant appearance. Since she was an adopted daughter, she should behave herself. How could she surpass the Xu family’s biological daughter?

She said unhappily, “Old Madam Yin, you can’t blame Cousin. She’s just a little angry. You just came and don’t know what’s going on. Qiao Xi stole Anran’s ring just now.

“It’s because of this that Cousin Anran said some angry words. She didn’t deliberately target Qiao Xi, nor did she look down on her identity. Instead, she regarded Qiao Xi as her younger sister and tried to protect her! On the other hand, Qiao Xi stole something but refused to admit her mistake. Is such a person worthy of being the Xu family’s daughter?”

The crowd could hear a pin drop. Everyone hurriedly reacted. The matter of Qiao Xi stealing something hadn’t been resolved yet!

Even if Old Madam Yin admitted that Qiao Xi was the daughter of the Xu family, it was a fact that she stole Xu Anran’s ring. Even if Xu Anran said something overboard, she couldn’t be blamed. Moreover, she did not blame Qiao Xi at all.

Wen Xi pointed at Qiao Xi and roared angrily, “She stole the emerald ring you gave Anran! Even after she was caught red-handed, she didn’t show the slightest regret! Now you know Qiao Xi’s true colors, right?! She even dares to steal the birthday gift you gave Anran! She’s really too much!”

After a few seconds of silence, Old Madam Yin suddenly smiled.

“I gave her an emerald ring?”

Wen Xi was suddenly slightly perturbed when she saw this. “Yes. It’s a set of jade jewelry, and an extremely good emerald ring is part of the set. It’s very expensive. Qiao Xi probably knows that the ring is expensive, so she stole it.”

Old Madam Yin’s gaze gradually turned cold.

The two young masters behind her also frowned. One of them looked at Xu Anran angrily.

Everyone looked confused. Xu Anran’s body trembled as she lowered her head guiltily.

She hurriedly explained, “Grandma, I didn’t make things difficult for Xi Xi, nor did I blame her for stealing. Besides, I’m afraid that if news of this gets out, it won’t be good for Xi Xi. I’ve already told everyone not to tell anyone. If you don’t believe me, ask them.

“Xi Xi bumped into me and the ring disappeared. I found the ring in her bag. I didn’t malign her. I just told her not to do such things in the future—”

“If you think Xi Xi did it, then call the police.” Gu Zheng glanced at her coldly, then looked at Old Madam Yin. “What do you think?”

Old Madam Yin instantly understood. If she proved that this ring was for Xi Xi, then Xu Anran…
