Chapter 247: Chapter 247 Identical
With such a question in mind, Jiang Xue spoke, asking, "Cheng Li, where did your bracelet come from?"
Pleased with the effect she caused, Cheng Li looked at Jiang Xue arrogantly and said, "Want to know? If you want to know, come with me."
Cheng Li knew that Jiang Xue had fallen out with her, and it wouldn’t be easy to lure her to that place. Fortunately, she had already planned to use this bracelet to draw Jiang Xue over.
Sure enough, Jiang Xue couldn’t stay calm when she saw the bracelet. Indeed, anyone seeing a bracelet exactly like the one on their own wrist wouldn’t stay calm.
"Cheng Li, didn’t Xue’er give you this?" Mrs. Jiang was convinced that this bracelet was Jiang Xue’s, so she started questioning.
When Jiang Xue and Cheng Li were on good terms, they would share everything with each other. So, she didn’t doubt at all that the bracelet on Cheng Li’s hand was given by Jiang Xue.
"Auntie, you can eat more, but you can’t talk nonsense. What do you mean Jiang Xue gave it to me? Clearly, this bracelet is mine, okay?"
"Yours?" Mrs. Jiang didn’t believe it at all, thinking that Cheng Li took something without admitting it. Pointing at her nose, she said, "Cheng Li, you really are an ungrateful wretch. The bracelet is clearly my Xue’er’s, and you say it’s yours. It’s really too much."
"Do you think with this, you can claim the item as your own?"
Mrs. Jiang was infuriated; Cheng Li was truly shameless, saying the bracelet was hers. This is obviously Jiang Xue’s bracelet, right?
This bracelet was kept by her until Jiang Xue got married. So, she recognized it instantly.
"Auntie, you really wronged me. This bracelet truly is mine." Cheng Li looked at Mrs. Jiang with a face full of grievance, turned to Jiang Xue, and said, "Jiang Xue, you can vouch for me, right? This bracelet isn’t yours, is it?"
"That’s right, this item isn’t mine." Jiang Xue nodded. But her words made Mrs. Jiang even angrier, as she said, "Xue’er, why are you still siding with her? This bracelet is clearly yours."
"Mom, that’s really not my item." Jiang Xue said while revealing her own wrist. On the wrist, a touch of emerald appeared in Mrs. Jiang’s eyes.
Jiang Xue’s bracelet was still there, properly worn.
Seeing the bracelet still there, Mrs. Jiang felt relieved. However, another question arose in her mind; if Jiang Xue’s bracelet was still there, then what about the bracelet on Cheng Li’s hand?
Could it be that the bracelet was originally supposed to be a pair? And the other one was taken by Mrs. Cheng? This thought flashed by, and Mrs. Jiang quickly dismissed it.
If that were the case, then Mrs. Cheng would have taken not one bracelet, but two.
Since Mrs. Cheng hadn’t taken it, then what was up with the bracelet on Cheng Li’s hand? Could it be passed down from Mrs. Cheng?
If that’s really the case, then Cheng Li and Jiang Xue...
Thinking of this, Mrs. Jiang’s gaze towards Cheng Li became somewhat odd. Her eyes shifted back and forth between Cheng Li and Jiang Xue, and she began to feel a bit uneasy.
"Auntie, I told you, you can’t talk nonsense. You see, it’s clearly my item, yet you said it was Jiang Xue’s. Fortunately, Jiang Xue isn’t greedy, or else my bracelet would have a new owner today."
Cheng Li’s voice rang out again, bringing Mrs. Jiang back to her senses, and then she said, "Since it’s your item, what do you need with my Xue’er?"
"Leave, my Xue’er needs to eat, she doesn’t have time to pay attention to you."
With that, Mrs. Jiang ignored Cheng Li and pulled Jiang Xue into the house.
