Kang Xue was standing not far away. She could clearly hear the conversation between Jiang Yu and Professor Karl.
She snorted in disdain and said to herself, “She just performed John What’s so great about it? If it were me, I’m afraid John would have begged me to play with him!”
Her voice was very soft. No one but herself could hear her.
However, Jiang Yu saw Kang Xue out of the corner of her eyes. Out of courtesy, she still smiled at Kang Xue.
However, in Kang Xue’s eyes, other than Jiang Yu showing off to her, she could also hear herself talking to herself.
This made Kang Xue feel a little guilty.
Therefore, she deliberately turned her face away and no longer looked at Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu knew very well that Kang Xue had always been like this, so she did not feel uncomfortable. She turned around and continued to help Professor Karl prepare for the award ceremony.
Bessie had already gone to the audience seats early in the morning and sat down. Her face was full of joy as she waited for Jiang Yu to go on stage to receive the award.
After all, the award ceremony tonight was specially prepared for Jiang Yu!
Mike looked at Bessie helplessly and said, “Can you not be so excited? Those who don’t know would think that you were the one who won the award.”
“What do you know? Jiang Yu is my best friend! She won the award. As a friend, of course I’m happy for her!” Bessie said.
Mike had never been able to win Bessie’s argument since he was young, so he could only go along with her this time. He said, “Got it. You can be quiet for a while.”
Bessie finally calmed down a little.
The award ceremony began. After the host finished reading the opening speech, Jiang Yu walked up to the stage and took the certificate personally presented by Timmy.
Thunderous applause erupted from the audience. Bessie had already used the applause to cover up her screams. She screamed like a whistling whistle.
Mike sat beside her and could not help but cover his ears because of her voice.
After the award ceremony ended, Bessie looked for Jiang Yu and said, “Jiang Yu, it’s not too late. Should we go out for a celebratory meal?”
Jiang Yu looked at the time and felt that it was not too late. It would be good to have a celebratory meal.
So she smiled and said, “Sure. Call your friends to come along. I’ll pay for today’s meal.”
“That’s great!” Bessie jumped up and cheered.
In the end, a total of fifteen people went to the steak shop near the school — the same shop where Jiang Yu and Bessie had their last meal.
“Jiang Yu! You’re too kind!” Bessie jumped up and almost hung herself on Jiang Yu.
“Not too bad,” Jiang Yu said with a smile.
Because there were many people eating this time, Jiang Yu booked a private room on the second floor from the waiter.
The private room was very big, so it was not a problem for 20 people to sit in it.
After the 12 people walked into the private room, Jiang Yu conveniently hung her backpack on the rack at the door and took a seat.
After they ordered the food, they began to feast. During this time, everyone was so happy that they drank wine, and their laughter could be heard outside.
After dinner, everyone was ready to go back.
Jiang Yu walked to the door and took her backpack, preparing to go back with Bessie. However, the light feeling of the backpack made Jiang Yu a little confused. She opened the backpack and saw that it was empty. There was nothing inside.
Jiang Yu was stunned on the spot. Even her hazy drunkenness had cleared up in an instant.
Bessie saw Jiang Yu standing there in a daze and walked over with some confusion. She asked, “What’s wrong?”
Jiang Yu subconsciously gulped and said, “My certificate is missing.”
“What?” Bessie’s drunkenness cleared up in an instant. She took Jiang Yu’s backpack and saw that it was indeed empty. There was nothing inside.
“How did this happen?” Bessie asked in disbelief.
Jiang Yu didn’t know how the certificate was lost, but ever since everyone had entered the restaurant, only the waiters had entered and left the restaurant. No one else had entered or left the restaurant during the rest of the time.
Jiang Yu didn’t think that the waiters would steal her certificate, so she thought that the person who would steal her certificate must be one of the people eating here.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yu could not help but laugh at herself.
Bessie was puzzled and asked, “Why did you suddenly laugh?”
Jiang Yu voiced out her thoughts, and Bessie was also very shocked. She whispered, “Could it be… that the thief is among us?”
Jiang Yu nodded and said, “At least I think so.”
Her guess was always very accurate. So it was quite possible that the thief was amongst this group of people.
