Chapter 192 -192: The Missing Diamond Necklace

As the saying goes, train soldiers for a thousand miles to use them at one moment.

Yue Qingqing had been loafing about with her aunt, and that day she really encountered an incident.

Yue Xiaofang brought Qingqing and merchandise to Orchid Pavilion, and upon entering, they noticed the odd expressions on several clerks’ faces.

“Xiaolin, what happened?”

The called clerk shook his head, sighing, “Xiaofang, better let the boss tell you.”

Shi Yongshou emerged from the back, his face also clouded with gloom.

A chill ran down Yue Xiaofang’s spine.

“Mr. Shi, was there a problem with the item I delivered last time?”

Yue Xiaofang’s last delivery was a light-colored early spring coat with sleeve and back embroidery that was striking once worn.

Mrs. Xue, the customer who ordered the coat, was a major client of Shi Yongshou and had placed her order before the new year.

Yue Xiaofang had exerted a lot of effort on this coat to make it flawless.

The embroidery took a long time, and it took two months to finally deliver the goods.

Xue Yunlei liked it very much once she saw it and immediately wore it, only to feel after returning home that her waistline had expanded a bit over the year, so she brought it back to Yue Xiaofang for some alterations.

Last time, Yue Xiaofang was bringing the altered coat back.

Shi Yongshou remained silent, frowning at Yue Xiaofang.

Yue Xiaofang felt increasingly uneasy.

Yet she felt she had done the work wholeheartedly, so she did not avert her gaze, only looking back puzzled.

After a long while, Shi Yongshou shifted his gaze, “Mrs. Xue’s diamond necklace is missing, she remembers putting it in the coat’s pocket.”

“What?” Yue Xiaofang was stunned, “But I didn’t see it.”

There was a trace of sympathy in Shi Yongshou’s eyes, “I said it wouldn’t have been you, but Mrs. Xue doesn’t think so, that necklace was brought by her husband from abroad, and it’s worth a lot, she won’t rest until it’s found.”

Yue Xiaofang angrily said, “Mrs. Xue can report it to the police, and let the police investigate this matter.”

Shi Yongshou shook his head, “Mrs. Xue and her husband have sensitive identities, they do not want the police involved.”

Yue Qingqing saw Yue Xiaofang straighten her back again and again, her voice rising a few degrees.

“Then let Mrs. Xue have a good look, as I got the coat, its pockets were clean, I didn’t see any necklace at all.”

Yue Qingqing felt reassured, her aunt was no longer the timid person who would shy away at the slightest issue.

This assertiveness caught the attention of the clerks in the store.

Shi Yongshou sighed, “Xiaofang, I know this matter concerns your integrity, but you are also aware of Mrs. Xue’s status, if this matter is not investigated thoroughly, she won’t let it go.”

Yue Xiaofang asked, “So what does she plan to do?”

“She said if you still appear here, to have me keep you here and then call her.”

Upon hearing this, Yue Xiaofang grew even more infuriated, truly being treated as a thief.

She pulled up two chairs, seated Qingqing on one, and then sat down herself.

She boldly said, “Then please trouble Mr. Shi to contact her.”

Shi Yongshou already did not believe that Yue Xiaofang was responsible for this, and seeing her current demeanor, he was even more convinced.

However, he also could not afford to offend Mrs. Xue, so he could only pick up the newly installed automatic telephone in the store and dial the number Mrs. Xue had left.

Mrs. Xue arrived quickly, accompanied by a woman Yue Xiaofang and Yue Qingqing had met before.

Zhuang Rouhui.

Both women carried the aura of elite ladies, entering the shop with their necks held high, harsh gazes sweeping over Yue Xiaofang and Yue Qingqing.

That look made Yue Xiaofang very uncomfortable.
