Chapter 256: Treating Her Like a Fool
Translator: 549690339
It wasn't that Xia Yangyang was being paranoid.
She had been listening here for a while now.
In their conversation, throughout the entire time, Gu Qichen never once considered any other possibilities.
Like the possibility that Shen Manbing might have framed her.
Gu Qichen said that he would investigate the matter thoroughly and give Shen Manbing an explanation.
Why should Shen Manbing be given an explanation for this matter?
She was the victim.
The most likely scenario was that Shen Manbing had framed her, so why would Gu Qichen still have to explain to her?
Gu Qichen kept saying he believed in her, using the evidence that "she wasn't capable of doing that."
But his buying of the necklace and covering up the incident without stirring waves revealed his suspicions.
He suspected her of theft, tarnishing the Gu family's reputation, and framing Shen Manbing.
Otherwise, he could have made a scene and publicized the results of all the investigations.
