Chapter 348: The Missing Necklace
A barely noticeable look of surprise flashed across Chen Xiaoqing's face.
"Sister Xuemei is here." She smiled at her affectionately.
Zhang Wenxuan looked at Chen Xiaoqing with a strange look and smiled awkwardly.
"Sister Xiaoqing, my boyfriend Zhang Wenxuan has a doctorate degree." Su Xuemei emphasized the word "doctor" to attract the attention of others.
Chen Xiaoqing smiled at him lightly and said, "Hello, Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Wenxuan nodded at her.
Chen Xiaoqing didn't expect Zhang Wenxuan to come today, and he didn't greet her or communicate with her beforehand, so she felt a little unhappy.
Then he thought again, maybe it was because it was really inconvenient for him to be with Su Xuemei.
Wenxiu and Su Haoxuan were serving dishes to the table. Chen Xiaoqing greeted Su Xuemei and the others and hurried to the kitchen to help.
"Meimei, you are the protagonist of our family today. You don't have to do any work. Just wait to celebrate your birthday!" Grandma Su took Su Xuemei's hand and walked towards the dining table.
Wenxiu placed the birthday cake she bought in the center of the dining table.
"The atmosphere at home is good today. Who's having a birthday?" Chen Xiaoqing asked as she placed plates of food around the cake.
Wenxiu nodded to Chen Xiaoqing, glanced at Su Xuemei, and said, "At Miss Su's birthday party, the necklace she wore on her chest alone was worth tens of millions. It was a gift from her boyfriend."
When Wenxiu said this, she paid attention to the changes in Chen Xiaoqing's facial expression.
But she saw Chen Xiaoqing pursing her lips and smiling faintly, as if she didn't care about these things.
Wenxiu made up her mind today that no matter how Grandma Su treated her, she would set a good example as a sister-in-law and not let others look down on her.
……
The birthday party ended in a blessed and peaceful atmosphere.
Su Xuemei held Wenxiu's hand gratefully: "Sister Wenxiu. Thank you, you have worked hard."
"It makes me feel better when I am willing to make sacrifices to celebrate my sister's birthday."
After packing up, Wenxiu made an excuse of being tired and prepared to leave Grandma Su's house with Su Haoxuan, but was stopped by Su Xuemei.
"Sister, I plan to stay at grandma's place for a few days. Stay with me tonight and let's talk."
Wenxiu glanced at Su Haoxuan and asked for his opinion.
"Sister Xuemei has finally found time to come here. Since she has begged you, just stay and talk. Anyway, there is enough room at grandma's place." Su Haoxuan nodded at Wenxiu.
In the evening, Su Xuemei and Wenxiu sat in the living room chatting.
She took off the necklace from her chest and showed it off in front of Wenxiu so that she could appreciate it.
Wenxiu held the necklace in her hand and looked at it again and again. She really couldn't let it go.
Su Xuemei saw through Wenxiu's thoughts: "Sister, if you also like this style, ask Brother Haoxuan to accompany you to buy one tomorrow. It won't be a difficult task for you."
Wen Xiu smiled sweetly and returned the necklace in her hand to Su Xuemei: "I like your style very much. To put it bluntly, what woman doesn't love beauty? However, I'm not used to wearing these accessories, so forget it..."
While the two of them were chatting happily, Zhang Wenxuan and Chen Xiaoqing were lying on the big beds in their respective rooms, typing and chatting on their mobile phones.
They chatted for a long time, and when they thought Su Xuemei was about to return to her room, they closed the dialog box and deleted all the chat content.
It was very late at night when Wen Xiu returned to her room. Before going to bed, she talked about Su Xuemei with Su Haoxuan again.
"Haoxuan, I talked with Xuemei for half the night. She is quite simple and actually has a good nature. It's just that sometimes the way she speaks... some of her words are quite embarrassing." Wenxiu lay next to Su Haoxuan, pulled the thin blanket covering her to her chest and said, "We drank a lot of tea while chatting with her, and we had to get up several times at night."
Su Xuemei drank a lot of tea. When she came back, Zhang Wenxuan was already fast asleep, so she didn't feel comfortable waking him up.
Before going to bed, she habitually placed the necklace worth tens of millions on the bedside table. Just as she lay down, she felt a little urgent and hurriedly got up to go to the bathroom.
I met Wenxiu in the bathroom. Wenxiu was wearing pink pajamas. We greeted each other warmly and then went back to the room.
When Su Xuemei was at home, she had no habit of closing the door of her room. This was no exception at Grandma Su's house. She just left the door ajar.
The next morning, after Su Xuemei finished washing up, she found that the necklace on the bedside table was missing.
She panicked and asked Zhang Wenxuan hurriedly.
"Wenxuan, why is the necklace on the bedside table gone?"
"Don't worry, grandma's house is absolutely safe. Think carefully and see if it was left somewhere else."
As Zhang Wenxuan spoke, he searched everywhere in the quilt, under the pillow, and under the sheets, but couldn't find it.
He was also a little panicked and said, "Go tell your grandma quickly if there was a thief in the house last night."
Su Xuemei ran out in a panic to find her grandmother, and happened to meet Chen Xiaoqing who was going to the bathroom.
"Su Xuemei, why are you panicking?"
"My necklace was stolen last night."
Chen Xiaoqing looked at Su Xuemei's back, shook his head lightly and smiled.
Soon, Grandma Su, supported by Su Xuemei, came to the hall with a cane and gathered everyone over.
"Last night, Xuemei's necklace worth tens of millions of yuan disappeared. I searched the whole room but couldn't find it. No matter who took it, as long as they hand it over, we can pretend that it never happened..." Grandma Su knocked the floor hard with her cane a few times.
"That's impossible. There are only a few of us... Could it have been stolen by a thief from outside?" Wenxiu looked at Su Haoxuan and Grandma Su in confusion.
"Nonsense, there are cameras everywhere inside and outside the house, so where would the thief come from? Even if there is a thief, he can't get into the house." Grandma Su glanced at everyone.
"In that case, check the surveillance cameras at home to see if there are any clues." Zhang Wenxuan spoke.
Su Haoxuan looked at Chen Xiaoqing. He firmly believed that Wenxiu had nothing to do with this matter.
Chen Xiaoqing saw Su Haoxuan's intention and shook her head at him.
He turned his head and looked at Zhang Wenxuan and Su Xuemei with strange eyes, and began to suspect that they were the thieves.
Su Xuemei was anxious: "Brother Haoxuan, is it interesting for us to deliberately say that the necklace is lost?"
Su Haoxuan thought again and felt that what Xuemei said made sense. He looked at them awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
Su Haoxuan took everyone to check the surveillance camera. Su Xuemei supported Grandma Su and stood in front of the computer with Su Haoxuan.
When he turned on the monitor and checked it frame by frame, a familiar figure appeared on the screen. He stared at the screen in shock for a moment, and then he almost collapsed.
"Haoxuan, what's going on?" Wenxiu, who was standing next to him, looked at Su Haoxuan's strange expression and asked hurriedly.
