The Show Begins

Chapter 39: You don't believe me?

Views:

After saying hello to everyone, Lai Yang went straight to Tian Jing's house.

When he reached the door, he saw that the keyhole had been broken and the door was ajar.

After pushing the door open, Lai Yang found that the room was in a mess and everything had been turned over.

Tian Jing was like a frightened kitten, sitting on the sofa with her pretty face looking at him nervously, and next to her was a man in a suit.

He was looking at himself with a surprised look.

Lai Yang recognized the little turtle as the man from last time. His leather shoes were still spotless, and he still had a faint scent of cologne on his body, which could be smelled clearly from several meters away.

"What happened? When did the thief break in?"

Lai Yang didn't have time to greet the man, he quickly walked up to ask Tian Jing.

She was wearing a beige corset, and the ribbon around her waist tightened her slender waist, which while highlighting her slender figure also reflected her lack of security.

From her neat attire, Lai Yang guessed that she had just returned.

"From the surveillance video, it looked like a man pried open the door and came in around 5pm." Little Turtle spoke first, and then Lai Yang noticed that he was looking him up and down with a complicated look.

"Did you call the police?"

After Lai Yang asked, he found that Tian Jing's delicate face was a little pale, as if she was frightened. Her usually beautiful red lips were now only a light pink.

But Lai Yang discovered at this moment that she was holding her crystal ball tightly in her hand.

"I have reported it. The police have already taken your statement and left."

After listening to her, Lai Yang felt mixed emotions.

When such a big thing happened at home, the first person Tian Jing thought of was her American classmate.

If I hadn't called to ask, would she not have told me

"Jingjing has difficulty walking, so I sent her upstairs, and then I saw the house in this state." The little turtle suddenly said something, which made Lai Yang's heart, which had just settled down, rise again.

"Oh, what did the police say?" Lai Yang asked.

The little turtle took a breath and shook his head to indicate that the man in the surveillance video was wrapped very tightly and his appearance could not be seen at all. He was definitely a repeat offender and came well prepared.

"Also, he seems to be very familiar with this place. He must have visited this place beforehand, or..."

He glanced at Lai Yang, then looked at Jing Jing; "Jing Jing, have you offended anyone recently?"

This sentence has a hidden meaning. The underlying meaning is to tell Tian Jing that the thief may be someone around her.

Lai Yang didn't know how to respond for a moment. It seemed that no matter what he said, it was wrong. He was so angry that Xiao Hai

A fuck

Or am I overthinking it? That's not what he meant

Tian Jing shook her head, reached out to tuck the hair beside her cheek behind her ear, and politely asked Lai Yang to sit down first.

Lai Yang sat on the sofa a little awkwardly. After looking at the little turtle, he asked Tian Jing what was missing from the house

"Yeah, nothing much, just some jewelry was taken away, and... the money in the bedside table."

"That's not a small amount. I remember it was several thousand, right?"

Laiyang knew the money stuffed in her bedside table. He had seen it last time when he helped her get the burn ointment, but Laiyang didn't expect that the words he blurted out would be heard by the little turtle in a different way.

"You knew there was money in her bedside table? Have you been here?" The little turtle's face suddenly became serious.

Lai Yang was stunned, and his eyes instinctively looked at Tian Jing, and a hint of complexity also appeared on her moon-like face.

What does it mean

They wouldn't... think they stole the money, right

Just when Lai Yang was about to get angry, a quiet and clear voice like pearls came to his rescue. She said that last time she had troubled Lai Yang to get something, so he had opened the drawer of the bedside table.

The little turtle said "oh" after hearing this, but the thieving look in his eyes remained unchanged.

Because the house was too messy, Lai Yang stood up and took the initiative to clean up the living room, and the little turtle followed him.

But just as Lai Yang was busy packing up, when he bent down, a stack of banknotes fell to the ground in his pocket.

The next second, he felt two cold gazes staring at him.

Lai Yang took a deep breath. This money was the performance fee he earned legitimately, but it appeared at a very inappropriate time.

But he couldn't explain anything at this moment, for he was afraid that the more he looked, the darker it would become.

When he just picked up the money, the little turtle suddenly grabbed his wrist and asked with fire in his eyes, "What is this?"

"This is... money! Can't you recognize it?" Lai Yang was already angry with him, but after shouting this, he seemed to be extremely angry and frustrated.

The tranquil gaze was as cold as autumn water and fell on Lai Yang's face, but what made Lai Yang feel even colder was his heart.

Lai Yang shook off the little turtle's hand, looked at Tian Jing and began to speak anxiously, "This is the performance fee! Li Dian just gave it to me today. You don't think I'm a thief, do you?"

Actually, they could have talked nicely, but Lai Yang's mood tonight was made very irritable by this little turtle.

So much so that he almost shouted every word he said.

The little turtle was showing off in front of Tian Jing and was about to do something to Lai Yang when Tian Jing's cold voice rang out.

"Yu Bo, you

Don't mess around, that's really his performance fee."

Hearing Tian Jing's explanation, Lai Yang felt relieved, but the little turtle refused to give in and looked at him coldly.

"Performance fee? How do you prove it?"

"You want proof, right? I'll call you right now to ask for clarification. The money was given to me by my friend this afternoon!"

Lai Yang took out his mobile phone, opened WeChat, and swiped the screen to find Li Dian’s dialog box.

But at this moment, the little turtle suddenly narrowed his eyes, snatched the phone and shouted: "What is this!"

This action scared Tian Jing. She was afraid that the two would fight, so she walked over despite the injury on her ankle, pulled him away and shouted.

"Yu Bo, what are you doing?"

"Here! Quietly, take a look for yourself."

He handed the phone directly to Tian Jing. Lai Yang was a little confused at this moment. What did the little turtle see? What could make him so excited

But when Tian Jing glanced at the screen of her mobile phone and looked up at Lai Yang, the cold look in her eyes made Lai Yang feel unfamiliar.

Lai Yang took back the phone and glanced down, only to find that the dialog boxes on the screen were all those he sent when he borrowed money a while ago.

At that time, I edited a paragraph and copied and pasted it to dozens of people. Later, I was too lazy to delete it, resulting in the screen being full of borrowing money!

I never expected that this would become "evidence" in the eyes of others tonight

"Shouldn't you explain?" the little turtle said coldly.

"What's there to explain? How does it matter to you if I lend money to others?" Lai Yang clenched his cell phone, glared at me with gritted teeth.

But after saying this, he once again felt his self-esteem being rubbed to the ground. He took a deep breath and looked at Tian Jing.

"Tian Jing, don't you believe me? Do you think I would do such a thing?"

"I watched the surveillance video, and the figure in it looks a lot like you..."

The little turtle had just finished speaking when Lai Yang couldn't help but roared, "Did I ask you? What the hell is this got to do with you?"

"Laiyang!"

Tian Jing finally spoke, interrupting Lai Yang's volcanic shouting. Then her beautiful cheeks were full of loss and her red lips opened slightly.

"You go first, let me be alone for a while."

Buzz~

A ringing sound seemed to come from my heart, and it went on for a long time, empty~

Lai Yang felt as if all his strength had been drained away. After a while, he said in a pale and weak voice.

"Okay, then just calm down."

After saying that, he turned around and strode towards the door, but after opening the door, Lai Yang turned back to look at Tian Jing.

"If you really think I'm that kind of person, just throw away that crystal ball!"
