Chapter 58: Framed
Editor: Atlas Studios
The number of onlookers increased, and there were several pairs of eyes staring at Nan Zhi.
The staff working at the broadcasting company all knew that Lin Wanyue's temper was bad when she was off the cameras. A person who made her angry would definitely not have things easy for them, who knew if she would blacklist the newcomer for life?
Everyone was waiting to see how Nan Zhi would make a spectacle out of herself.
Bo Sijing and Nan Yao were standing not too far away. Both of their lips were curled up into identical smirks, clearly taking pleasure in Nan Zhi's misfortune. "Just wait, Yaoyao. Han Mo will definitely fire Nan Zhi once she knows what she has done to Lin Wanyue. The show has only just begun."
Even though Bo Sijing did not know how Nan Zhi knew Alvis, she would not let Nan Zhi have a good life, especially since she had embarrassed herself in front of Alvis.
Nan Yao was equally looking forward to seeing Nan Zhi be cast aside by everyone. She was anticipating the scene of Han Mo driving Nan Zhi out of the broadcasting company.
Her anger dissipated just at the thought of it!
Lin Wanyue scoffed coldly at the sight of Nan Zhi, who did not have a single ounce of panic on her face. Her gaze locked on Nan Zhi was filled with intense hatred and she let out a mocking laugh. "You are feigning ignorance? My oval ring is gone. I remember you went into my dressing room before your interview."
Nan Zhi pursed her lips slightly. "Yes, your assistant brought me there."
The expressions of Han Mo and several other interviewers darkened slightly. Although it was hard to get along with Lin Wanyue, she would not accuse others without reason. Not to mention, Nan Zhi was just an unknown person, there was no reason to frame her.
Everyone knew that Lin Wanyue loved her oval diamond ring. The ring was rumored to cost at least ten million and Lin Wanyue would wear it whenever she did not have to work.
Was the ring really stolen by Nan Zhi?
A person whose hands were not clean and had those kind of questionable morals, was not welcome, no matter where it would be.
Nan Zhi watched at the gazes of the people around her turned suspicious, already casting judgement on her. She looked into Lin Wanyue's fiery gaze as she said calmly, "Senior Lin, you should know the law. It's also illegal to slander and frame someone, right?"
Lin Wanyue did not think that a thief would still act so fearlessly at this point. Her expression was dark as she said coldly, "When did I frame you? Weren't you wearing an outfit that was merely a few hundred dollars when you entered my dressing room? What are you wearing now?"
Her scathing comments focused the crowds' attention on her attire as she continued her tirade, "You clearly seduced some old man using your pretty looks, despite your young age, and got financial support in a shameless manner. You came to steal mine because the old man didn't want to give you a diamond ring!"
Nan Zhi merely found the whole situation funny and her lips quirked. She lifted her thin eyebrow slightly, as her almond orbs flashed, "Senior Lin, where's your evidence?"
"Xiao Ting, come over here!" Lin Wanyue called coldly.
Xiao Ting walked over with her head down and eyes red. Xiao Ting had been Lin Wanyue's assistant for two years and was honest and gullible. Several staff of the broadcasting company knew her well and had a rather good impression of the docile girl.
Xiao Ting walked in front of Nan Zhi and knelt down suddenly. Her slender fingers tugged on Nan Zhi's skirt lightly. Her eyes were filled with tears. "Miss Nan, please return the ring to Lin Jie!"
Nan Zhi took two steps back as she removed Xiao Ting's small hand that was tugging onto her skirt. Her gaze was slightly cold.
The first impression she had of Xiao Ting was rather good, and she felt slight pity for her when she saw Xiao Ting being kicked by Lin Wanyue in the dressing room.
The phrase of knowing one's exterior but never understanding their heart is true.
"Miss Nan, I'd lent you the hairdryer with good intentions, seeing that your clothes were wet. You should have been grateful. Why did you steal Lin Jie's ring when I wasn't paying attention? If you don't return the ring, Lin Jie will send us both to prison!"
Xiao Ting's tears flowed nonstop as her slender shoulders trembled. She looked terrified.
Shu Meng, one of the interviewers that knew Xiao Ting, could not watch any further. She could not help but to step forward and help speak for her, "Xiao Ting would not lie. The ring should still be on Nan Zhi."
"Chief Han, if it's found that Nan Zhi has stolen the ring, there's no way she can work here in the broadcasting company with us. How would we dare to work with such a thief? We can't trust her!"
