Chapter 49 Breaking the situation
Zhao Jinling walked over and picked up the jade pendant. After confirming it was correct, she said to everyone, "Everyone has seen it. My jade pendant is indeed on her."
She said to Shen Suyun aggressively, "How dare you say you didn't steal my jade pendant? If you didn't steal it, how could my jade pendant be on you?"
Shen Suyun widened her eyes. She didn't know why Zhao Jinling's jade pendant was on her.
unless……
She responded and pointed at Zhao Jinling and said, "You must have pushed it into me when you bumped into me just now. You are framing me."
Zhao Jinling asked her: "Why would I frame you? Do we know each other? Do we have any grudges against each other?"
Shen Suyun was speechless after being asked by her. She really didn't know Zhao Jinling, nor had she ever met her, and she didn't know why she wanted to frame her.
She was so anxious that her eyes turned red. She didn't know how to argue.
Especially the way people around her looked at her was as if she was being stripped of her clothes and being watched.
Humiliation, anger, grievance, fear, all these emotions mixed together, making her helpless and desperate.
Zhao Jinling held her head high and said sternly, "You dare to steal in the Marquis' Mansion. This is simply lawless. I will send you to the authorities for investigation today."
"Miss Zhao is so majestic."
Song Shiwei walked out of the crowd.
When Shen Suyun saw her, she hurriedly held her arm as if she had met a savior and said, "Sister-in-law, I didn't steal her jade pendant."
Song Shiwei glanced at her.
In fact, she didn't need to intervene in this matter, because with Shen Suyun's personality, she would not appreciate it even if she was saved.
But after all, she was the one who brought the person to the Marquis' Mansion, and she is still a wife of the Shen family, so she still has to save those who need to be saved.
She patted Shen Suyun's hand and said, "I know, don't worry, I will definitely clear your name as long as I am here."
Only then did Shen Suyun let go of her hand and hid behind Song Shiwei.
"So it's Miss Song, I almost forgot that Shen Suyun is your sister-in-law, right?
I heard that she had stolen your things before. You are such a fool. You brought her to the banquet knowing that she is not a clean person. I wonder what your intention is?"
Every word Zhao Jinling said was sarcastic, and her face was full of disdain.
Song Shiwei didn't argue with her. She asked, "Miss Zhao, can you let me see the jade pendant in your hand?"
Zhao Jinling didn't know what she wanted to do, but no matter what she wanted to do, it couldn't change the fact that Shen Suyun stole, so she gave her the jade pendant.
Song Shiwei held the jade pendant up to the sun, then curled her lips and said to the crowd, "Look at this jade pendant, it's pure white, without any dirt at all?"
Everyone came over to take a look, and found that the jade pendant was indeed as smooth and clean as new, without any marks on it.
Zhao Jinling frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"What I mean is that Suyun didn't steal your jade pendant."
Song Shiwei stretched out her sleeve and said, "Look everyone, this is the mark left on my sleeve when Suyun grabbed my arm just now."
When everyone gathered around, they saw that there was indeed a bright red stain on Song Shiwei's sleeve.
Someone asked, “What does this mean?”
Song Shiwei explained: "What everyone doesn't know is that Suyun was a little nervous about attending the banquet, and she accidentally knocked over a box of rouge when she got off the car.
The rouge spilled on her hands, and although she wiped them with a handkerchief, she still couldn't wipe them clean.
If you don't believe me, look at Suyun's hands. Are there any traces of rouge left?"
She grabbed Shen Suyun's hand and showed it to everyone, and sure enough, there were traces of rouge left on her hand.
Song Shiwei continued, "After Suyun entered the mansion, she was so busy admiring the beautiful scenery in the garden that she forgot to wash her hands.
If she really stole the jade pendant, there must be traces of rouge left by her on it, just like the stains on my sleeves.
But everyone saw that Miss Zhao's jade pendant was clean, which meant that Suyun had never touched it.
If she hadn't touched it, why was the jade pendant on her body?"
"correct."
Some people think that Song Shiwei's speculation is reasonable. There are rouge marks on Shen Suyun's hands, and no matter what she touches, it will leave traces.
However, there was nothing on the jade pendant.
Some people also questioned: "If the jade pendant is touched, it will not leave a mark, after all, clothes and jade pendants are different."
"It's very simple. Let Suyun touch the jade pendant and you will know."
Song Shiwei handed the jade pendant to Shen Suyun, then nodded at her, signaling her not to be afraid.
Shen Suyun bit her lip and looked a little nervous, but at this moment she could only choose to trust Song Shiwei. She reached out and touched the jade pendant.
Everyone rushed over and saw a faint red mark left on the jade pendant.
Someone was surprised and said, "There are traces. The jade pendant was definitely not stolen by her."
"What if it got rubbed off when she tucked it into her clothes?"
Some people still have doubts.
Song Shiwei said: "This jade pendant is of a warm and smooth texture, and the rouge contains oil. Once a mark is left, it cannot be easily wiped off."
She reached out and wiped the marks on the jade pendant, but the more she wiped, the dirtier it became.
There was an exclamation in the crowd, and everyone started talking again.
"But if Shen Suyun didn't steal it, why is the jade pendant on her? It can't be that she just grew legs and ran over there."
"It is also possible that someone deliberately framed me."
Zhao Jinling's face changed drastically when she heard this. She didn't expect that there would be any rouge marks on Shen Suyun's hands.
She was panicked for a moment and looked at Song Mingzhu and Qian Xueer for help.
Song Shiwei blocked her view and explained to everyone with a smile: "Actually, this is very simple."
As she said this, she bumped into Zhao Jinling.
Zhao Jinling was knocked back a few steps by her and asked angrily, "What are you doing?"
Song Shiwei said: "Miss Zhao stole my jade pendant, please return it to me."
"When did I steal your jade pendant?"
After Zhao Jinling said this, she immediately reacted and hurriedly touched her waist, and saw a jade pendant that did not belong to her.
She stared at Song Shiwei with wide eyes and said, "You framed me!"
Song Shiwei shrugged, took her jade pendant back from her hand, curled her lips and said: "Miss Zhao, how can you prove that you didn't steal my jade pendant?
If you didn't steal it, why is my jade pendant in your possession?"
Zhao Jinling said angrily: "It was you who stuffed the jade pendant into me when you bumped into me just now."
"Oh?"
Song Shiwei raised her voice at the end of her voice: "So this is how you framed Suyun?"
She looked at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "I think everyone knows the truth of the matter, right?
My sister-in-law Shen Suyun is innocent. It was Zhao Jinling who framed her.
Although I don't know what the grudge was between them, her behavior was really vicious.
If she succeeds, how will my sister Suyun live?
Does she deserve to be teased just because she comes from a humble background? "
"I don't!"
Zhao Jinling shook her head and refused to admit it.
At this moment, the man's cold voice said, "Since Miss Zhao refuses to admit it, take her to the Dali Temple and let Lord Feng have a thorough trial!"
