Lù Yue’an leaned into Shi Qingyue’s arms and sobbed as she calmed down. After thinking carefully, she said gently, “I remember placing it on the sink in the washroom.”
“Have you checked it out?”
“I did, it wasn’t there. I might have remembered wrongly…”
Shi Qingyue wiped her tears with the back of her hand. “Think about it slowly. There’s no hurry, okay? Everyone is helping you find it, we’ll definitely find it.”
Li Yue’an nodded gently in her arms. “Mm.”
Her pituful voice caused Shi Qingyue to dote on her a little more.
Lu Qing stood behind them and looked at Lb Yue’an’s back—all of a sudden, she felt so unfamiliar…
“What’s all this, is it even necessary? It’s just a bracelet. Why did she have to involve so many people to help her find it?”
“Who knows? It’s rare for us to have so much fun. What a killjoy.”
“Shh! Stop talking. If you anger the little princess, you’ll suffer.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the surrounding people could not help but laugh.
“Hey, you guys still don’t know, right? It’s said that her bracelet costs millions. How can you not look for it?!”
‘Good lord, no wonder the discipline master values it so much. A million yuan is enough to buy a house in our hometown. She actually wears a house on her wrist.”
“It’s enough to buy a toilet in prime estate; she’s wearing a toilet on her hand.” Laughter came from the surroundings.
On the other hand, the people by the podium did not completely disperse. Some obediently went to help find it, while others were not so obedient.
This group of disobedient people included Lu Ning and her classmates.
After the group of people figured out what was going on, they stood on the snot without much interest and chatted with the people around them instead of helping to search. Eventually, when they were tired of standing, they sat on the podium with Lu Ning and looked at the people getting busy at the side of the stadium.
Everyone had searched the entire stadium, but they could not find that bracelet.
“Do you think she’s so bored that she has to find something for us to do? Why wear a lousy bracelet if she can’t even take care of it!”
“It’s pretty. Otherwise, why would she do it? Anyway, we won’t help her find it. We’ll just sit and watch.”
“Hey, I heard that her bracelet is worth millions.”
“What?! Millions?! She’s crazy. No wonder she lost it, she’s probably being targeted.”
“That’s possible. I’m afraid we won’t be able to find it today. If this thief stole something so valuable, why would they even hang around here? He’d probably have left long ago.”
“It’s also possible that they didn’t run away. Not everyone can enter the school, so it might be someone close to her. She’s so ostentatious. I reckon some envious people took it away when she wasn’t paying attention.”
“Huh? Could it be her own classmate? That’ll be interesting.”
Lin Ci was uninterested. She leaned on Lu Ning’s shoulder and asked in boredom, “Are they done? If they can’t find it, stop searching for it. Her family won’t miss a million yuan.”
Lu Jingzhi leaned into Lu Ning’s arms and yawned. Lu Ning raised her hand and gently brushed his hair.
Gu Zi and Gu Chen stood on both sides of Lu Ning like two door guardians.
Lin Ci was really bored and could not help but say, “Where do you think she could’ve lost that junk?”
Lu Ning only smiled. “She probably lost it where it belongs.”
Lin Ci was stunned for a moment when she heard this. She turned to look at Lu Ning and saw an inscrutable smirk on her lips.
“What do you mean?
Before Lu Ning could answer, a sound suddenly came from somewhere, and sharp footsteps followed immediately after..
