Chapter 49: Chapter 49 Framed?

Chapter 49 Framed?

"You should sleep first." Li Yue said. They had just finished having their dinner. The sun was still up but since most of the students were tired, many insisted that they should sleep early and wake up later tonight to watch the moon together. "Tonight is a full moon. They've already decided to wait for the voice of the weeping woman."

Mo Li gave her an incredulous gaze but decided to sleep anyways so he could stay awake during the later half of the night. However, just as Mo Li fell asleep, a couple of students accompanied Lizzy to visit their tent.

"This… Li Yue… how could you do this to me?" Lizzy's eyes were swollen and red, her face was pale in distraught, making her look pitiful.

"Sister Lizzy, are you sure that Li Yue took it?"

Lizzy nodded. On the outside, Li Yue looked confused as she asked, "What did I take?" Question marks were apparent in her eyes. She had already prepared herself for this upcoming scheme. She knew that this was coming from a long mile away.

"Li Yue… I knew you hated me because of what I did earlier. But, please, return my bracelet. My late grandmother gave it to me before she passed away. It has a special amulet that will keep me safe. It is something very important to me." A teardrop rolled down Lizzy's sullen face.

"Whoever is it told you that I took it? Lizzy Lu, you know that I can file a case against you for slander, right?" Li Yue decided to play along.

"I saw you! I saw you put it in your small pouch. The one you're carrying!"

"I saw it too! I saw Li Yue put it in her pouch earlier back when they set up the tent. I saw the exactly similar blue bracelet." Another student chimed in. "Li Yue, how could you do this to Lizzy? What she did earlier was done out of concern. If you hated her so much, you could have had talked to her like a normal person instead of stealing something so precious!" At the mention of the word precious, Lizzy started sobbing.

That bracelet was indeed precious to her. She accepted a handkerchief that was handed by someone and continued to act pitiful. "Li Yue … I promise I won't press charges as long as you give it back to me."

Li Yue turned silent as she tried to remember the face of the woman who said she saw her putting away the bracelet. Slowly, an unfathomable light glinted in her eyes. Wasn't that girl the one who was following them around earlier? If that's the case, then the bracelet should be in her huge hiking bag. A sneer escaped her lips.

Did they think something like this would work on her? Li Yue eyed Lizzy's pitiful expression as she listened to the other students who were surrounded them. Most of them were threatening her to return the bracelet while the other half was glad to watch a show, smirking and taking videos.

"Everyone… I think you should stop this." Unsurprisingly, Li Weiwei's voice echoed, interrupting the other students. She walked in front of Li Yue and looked at everyone with an aggrieved expression on her face. "Li Yue could not have been the thief." She said. Hearing this, Li Yue decided not to say anything. Instead, she sat next to her bag and decided to watch the show. Isn't this the perfect opportunity to see the female lead's capabilities?

"Li Weiwei… why are you protecting that thief? Did she not steal your position? For more than fifteen years to boot! She was born a thief. Now… since she had lost the favor of the Li clan and her source of income, she is resorting to such an unscrupulous method. She should be embarrassed of herself!" A man, who was one of Li Yue's classmates said.

"That's right! She stole something so valuable. She must have thought that it was expensive. Sister Lizzy… how much do you think did that bracelet cost?" a woman whose face was so red from the various facial cosmetics, said.

"It should be close to a million. It's not that expensive as it wasn't made of expensive stones. But, the sentimental value of that bracelet in my heart is just…" Lizzy started sobbing again. "You may not know this but my maternal grandmother was the one who raised me when I was a kid."

"So that's how it is! Sister Lizzy is truly pitiful to suffer such injustice. Someone call the administrator! We should have him search Li Yue's belongings! Something like this is unacceptable! Someone should call the police too! That should be an antique piece of jewelry! How could we let her get away with this?"

Most people nodded their heads. However, Li Weiwei continued to bear a resolute expression. "How could you accuse her without any valid proof?"

"What proof do you need? Li Weiwei… don't act so smart! The Li family might be supporting you but everyone here comes from influential family too! Lizzy had already attested to the fact that she saw her putting the bracelet in her pouch! Another person also verified it! Are you saying that these two people are liars?"

"Weiwei…" Xia Jin's voice echoed. He was, unknowingly, already standing next to Li Weiwei. "Are you alright?" He asked his beloved. When Li Yue heard his words, she actually didn't know if she should laugh or cry. Why was he asking if Li Weiwei was alright when Li Yue was the one who was about to be framed? Li Yue's upper lips twitched at the sight of the two lovebirds in front of her.
