Chapter 412: Finding an excuse to leave
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Why bring a bag to the bathroom?”
Gu Man’s mocking gaze landed on the bag on Gu Ron’s shoulder.
Because of Gu Man’s words, Gu Rou’s expression clearly paused. In the end, she could only accept her fate and place her bag on the table before walking out the door angrily.
Looking at her back, Gu Man did not say anything.
Not long after Gu Ron left, the Manager came over. After he came over, Bai Yun asked bluntly.
“Did anyone from this room retrieve a bottle of Romance Conti today?”
Upon hearing this, the Manager understood that there was probably progress in the matter. He looked at the group of people and looked at the number of the private room outside the door. He shook his head firmly.
“Young Master Bai, you’re the only one who retrieved Romance Conti today.”
This sentence instantly silenced the entire private room. Those who had drunk the Romance Conti just now still couldn’t believe it. The truth was already obvious. It was the truth that they were most unwilling to believe.
Gu Rou was really the wine thief.
However, there were still some people who doubted this result.
“What if we’re drinking a fake bottle of wine?”
Although having fake wine was very embarrassing, it sounded better than stealing Bai Yun’s wine. The others also suspected that this was possible.
When the Manager heard this, he immediately walked forward and took the Romance Conti from the table. The purple lamp he carried with him shone on the bottle. He looked at it carefully, then placed the bottle on the table and gave a negative answer.
“This is a bottle of real wine.”
When he said this, those who wanted to defend Gu Rou were instantly speechless. Gu Rou had really stolen wine.
This fact kept circling in everyone’s minds, and the group of people who had spoken up for Gu Rou just now felt even more ashamed. They were actually speaking up for a wine thief.
“I’m sorry, Young Master Bai. We didn’t know just now because Gu Rou was too sure. We really thought that this Romance Conti was hers. We didn’t expect her to be a wine thief.”
“Young Master Bai, I’ve also drunk a little of this wine. Let’s add each other’s contact details. I’ll transfer the money to you.”
Some of them were tempted, and this person tried his best to get Bai Yun’s contact information.
Bai Yun smiled indifferently. “I don’t lack this bottle of wine. I just want to catch the wine thief.”
“Gu Rou hasn’t been back for a long time.”
Gu Man reminded everyone at the right time. She did not expect Gu Rou to abandon her bag and leave quickly. She probably did not want to embarrass herself in front of so many people.
However, the crime was already set. It was useless for her to avoid it.
However, could the Gu family withstand the Bai family’s anger? She would wait and see.
After Gu Man’s reminder, the others suddenly looked enlightened. Only then did they realize that the person who had said that they wanted to go to the toilet had not returned for a long time.
“Don’t tell me she ran away?”
“I think it must be because she’s feeling guilty.”
“I really didn’t expect Gu Rou to be such a person. I definitely won’t socialize with her anymore in the future. She might even steal my things.”
“To be honest, we often lost things when we were in school. Could she have stolen them?”
“No way. After all, the Gu family has some power.”
“Then who can say for sure? She even dared to steal Romance Conti. What else wouldn’t she dare to steal?”
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone sighed. Gu Rou’s reputation amongst her high school classmates was completely ruined.
When Gu Man heard their words, she casually picked up her bag and threw it at the person who had spoken up for Gu Rou the most.
“You seem to have a good relationship with Gu Rou. I’ll leave this bag to you.” Unexpectedly, that person threw her bag on the ground as if it was a hot potato and kept waving their hand.
“I don’t know her at all, really.”
When the matter of stealing the wine surfaced, everyone avoided Gu Rou. The sisterhood that they maintained on the surface was extremely fragile and disintegrated at this moment.
Gu Rou’s precious bag was casually thrown on the ground. In order to show off in front of this group of people today, her bag was obviously a limited edition bag. Now it was alone on the ground and everyone stayed away from it..
