The words “to catch a thief” caused the atmosphere in the room to turn sour.

The autumn wind was blowing, and at this moment, everyone’s body was filled with a mournful chill.

“Sis, what are you talking about?” Tang Mo was still gloating over her little trick just now. At this moment, her smile froze on the corner of her mouth, and her face was filled with disbelief.

“Something’s missing in my room.”

“Sis, don’t tell me you think that we…” Tang Mo couldn’t help but raised her voice. “I was just kind enough to help you clean up your room.”

Tang Wan’s expression was calm. “It’s indeed missing. I’ve already rummaged through it a few times.”

“Sis Tang, we just walked around the door and didn’t touch anything inside.” The few people who had entered Tang Wan’s room just now began to explain hurriedly.

“That’s right, we didn’t take anything. Don’t slander us.”

“Even if your things are gone, it might not be us who took them. Maybe you forgot where you put them.”

***

The few of them discussed animatedly. From the looks of it, they were already certain that Tang Wan was slandering them.

“We’re here as guests, yet you treat us as despicable criminals. This is outrageous.”

“So what if your family is rich? Do you think we haven’t seen anything expensive?”

Among the eight people, there were three guys. When they saw the girls from their gang being bullied, they were filled with righteous indignation. It was as if they were about to tear the Tang family apart and rush out.

However, the bodyguards of Jiang Jinshang stood guard at the door. The kids didn’t dare act brazenly.

After all, they had never seen such a scene before.

They were terrified in their hearts!

If it wasn’t for the presence of the bodyguards, they would definitely have rushed over to argue with Tang Wan. Obviously she anticipated this and asked for backup from Jiang Jinshang.

Jiang Jinshang sat at the side with a lazy expression, but his gaze was fixed on Tang Wan.

They talked for a long time, but Tang Wan remained unmoved. She was frighteningly calm. They could only look at Tang Mo. “Tang Mo, why is your sister like this? Can you at least say something?”

Tang Mo only knew how to play little tricks. Moreover, Jiang Jinshang was sitting directly opposite her. When she met his face, she felt a chill in her heart.

He was born with pale complexion, and his eyes were dim and cold.

“Sis, what you did was indeed a little too much. You blocked us here and insisted that something was lost in the room. You need evidence, right?”

Tang Wan only glanced at them. “You don’t have to be so anxious. If you didn’t enter my bedroom, what I lost has nothing to do with you.

“You entered someone else’s room without permission and touched someone else’s things. To put it bluntly, it is very rude of you.”

Her words successfully made the faces of the people who argued earlier turn green.

“If you don’t want to be treated as thieves, then don’t do things that will make people misunderstand.”

Tang Mo gritted her teeth and defended herself. “Sis, my friend’s family may not be that well-off, but you’re wrong for accusing their integrity.”

This was because Tang Wan was going right against Tang Mo. She was the one who brought guests over, she had to protect them.

“Even if you look down on them, you don’t have to be so insulting, right?

“If you lose something and you know who took it, you can just say it. It’s probably not appropriate to keep everyone here. If grandpa finds out that you’re bullying us, he’ll probably be unhappy too.”

Tang Mo was not stupid. She was also a little clever.

“Miss.” Madam Chen coughed softly. She didn’t want Tang Wan to cross the line.

They had indeed lost something, but now they had no evidence. They did not even know who took it. It wasn’t appropriate to keep so many people here.

Tang Wan only gave her a reassuring look and turned her attention back to the teenagers.

“How about this? Whoever took my stuff, admit right now and I’ll let you off. If you like it, I can give it to you as a gift. It’s nothing much to me.”

They looked at each other with different expressions. They were at a loss and also shocked and angry.

“If it’s found later on you, I’m afraid things will turn ugly,” Tang Wan continued.

Her voice was warm and soft, with a soft Southern accent. However, every word she said was direct and straight to the point.

Now, even if it was the teenagers who took it, the culprit wouldn’t dare to hand it over. They were surrounded by their classmates and friends. They would never be able to face their peers.

Tang Mo’s face was red with anger. Tang Wan was making things difficult for her friend because she wanted to embarrass her.

“Sis, that’s enough. We have our own issues, but you shouldn’t vent your emotions on my friend, right?

“Are you going to trap us all here today and search us one by one if we don’t have the goods?”

“This is illegal! That’s against the law!” One of the boys jumped out, his tone filled with righteous indignation. He looked as if he wanted to eat Tang Wan.

Tang Wan looked down at her watch and smiled. “Actually, you don’t have to be so agitated.”

“I know. Searching you against your will is against the law. It’s illegal to force you to do anything or to search through your personal belongings. You’ll definitely think that I’m bullying you, so I won’t do this.

“But the current situation is that I really lost something. I’m very upset that I lost it for no reason. I even saw it before I left the house this morning.

“If you didn’t take it, perhaps somebody from within the household?”

There were not many servants in the Tang family. They were just a few ladies responsible for cleaning and cooking. They stood in the corner and watched the show secretly. They were called out for no reason. They were so scared that their faces turned pale. They hurriedly jumped to their explanation.

“We have worked in the Tang family for seven or eight years. We wouldn’t do such a thing.” Stealing from the owner was a big taboo.

“Madams, don’t be nervous. I’m just analyzing the situation.” Tang Wan smiled. “So after thinking about it, I’ve found the best solution…”

Before Tang Wan could finish her sentence, the crowd heard a siren approaching from afar.

Out of the corner of her eyes, Tang Wan saw a little girl trembling in fear. She couldn’t help but look at her a few more times.

“Sis, you…”

A person of Tang Mo’s age rarely came into contact with the police. Even if she was bossy outside, she still had fear for the police from the bottom of her heart.

“It’s normal to report a theft when something is missing in the house.”

Jiang Jinshang sat at the side and subconsciously rubbed his fingers. He lowered his head and chuckled. Catching a thief was a small matter, but Tang Wan was trying to establish her authority!

She wanted people to know that not everyone could enter her house. If she’s annoyed, she would have a thousand and one ways to return the favor,

She’s a tough little girl. She’s soft, but when it comes to things..

She can be tough!

How amusing..
