章 46: Chapter 46: Strategies Against Mother Lu_1

Ji Zimo cast a meaningful glance toward the place where Ji Yao had placed her bag, then smiled, nodded her head, and left without asking anything more.

Ji Yao didn't know what kind of trouble she was stirring up, but she didn't want to bother with it and turned to continue her socializing.

After a while, a small disturbance suddenly rippled through the banquet.

The mother of Jincheng scanned the crowd before her gaze settled on Ji Yao's face. With an inexplicable confidence, she smirked and said to everyone, "I apologize for the inconvenience, but I've misplaced something and suspect it might be here at the venue. I may need to trouble everyone to allow a search of their persons."

Even though she spoke those words, her gaze remained fixed intently on Ji Yao, as if she was certain that Ji Yao was the one who had taken her belongings.
