Su Qiqi appeared before everyone with reddened eyes shimmering with tears, looking utterly wronged.

Su Qiqi looked at her father and mother, whose faces were full of reproach for her immaturity, then at her older sister and younger brother, who looked at her apologetically.

Su Qiqi felt humiliated to death.

At the same time, Su Qiqi hated Su Chen to the core.

Su Qiqi glared at Su Chen resentfully. Su Chen, I will repay today's humiliation a hundredfold, a thousandfold someday!

Su Chen did not care about Su Qiqi's hateful gaze. So what if she hated him? Wasn't she still being forced to apologize to him?

But Su Chen had no interest in Su Qiqi's apology.

What Su Chen wanted was to make Su Qiqi wear the label of "thief."

Su Chen's gaze lingered over the two pockets on Su Qiqi's dress.

Which pocket was it in?

The pocket on the right bulged slightly more than the one on the left. It was highly suspicious.

After all, Su Qiqi, who styled herself as a wealthy socialite, had always believed that pockets on clothing were not meant to hold things, but to decorate the outfit.

If someone actually used their pockets to carry things, Su Qiqi would consider them a country bumpkin.

Su Qiqi had mocked Su Chen for that before.

Su Chen was certain now. The watch had to be in Su Qiqi's slightly bulging pocket.

Seeing Su Qiqi standing blankly at the bathroom door without taking action, Su Zhenxing hurriedly ordered her, afraid that Su Chen would lose his mind again.

"Su Qiqi, what are you standing around for?!"

"Hurry up and apologize to Su Chen!"

Su Qiqi had never seen her father, Su Zhenxing, scold her so harshly before. The grievance in her heart immediately surged up.

Dad actually scolded me for Su Chen?!

Dad has changed. He is no longer the dad who used to dote on me.

After all, no matter how she had insulted or mocked Su Chen in the past, Dad had never interfered, much less reprimanded her.

Su Qiqi could not help becoming defiant. She stood there without moving, refusing to apologize to Su Chen, while glaring at him hatefully as if to say, Su Chen, just you wait. I won't let you off!

Su Chen was overjoyed at the sight.

If Su Qiqi had truly apologized to him, he would have had to find an excuse to lose his mind before he could search her pocket for the watch.

Now, he did not even need an excuse. He could just lose his mind directly.

One had to say, Su Qiqi could be quite considerate sometimes.

Action!

With a sudden leap, Su Chen charged toward Su Qiqi, his face twisted viciously as he shouted, "Su Qiqi, you deliberately framed me!"

"Su Qiqi, you're still glaring at me!"

"Su Qiqi, you still won't apologize to me! You're still glaring at me!"

"Aaaaaahhhhhhh!"

The current arrangement was that Su Chen stood before the Su Family, waiting for Su Qiqi's apology.

Meanwhile, Su Qiqi stood at the closed bathroom door.

Therefore, Su Chen was the closest to Su Qiqi, and there was no longer anyone from the Su Family standing between them.

So Su Chen rushed smoothly and unobstructed to Su Qiqi, stretched out his hands of fate, and grabbed her shoulders again.

The instant Su Qiqi saw Su Chen charging at her, her face went pale. She immediately retreated, wanting to duck back into the bathroom.

Unfortunately, the bathroom door was already shut, and Su Qiqi had no time to open it and hide inside.

No one in the Su Family had expected that after Su Qiqi hesitated for only a moment, Su Chen would lose his mind again. They had no time to stop him from rushing at Su Qiqi.

Thus, the Su Family could only watch helplessly as Su Chen crazily grabbed Su Qiqi's shoulders again, shaking her body nonstop while roaring beside her ear.

The Su Family hurried forward, intending to grab Su Chen's arms and legs again.

Just as they were about to seize Su Chen again, they heard him shout in surprise, "Su Qiqi, what's in your pocket?!"

"A watch?! It's actually a watch?!"

"Is this the watch you said was stolen?!"

While everyone was still stunned, they saw that Su Chen had already released Su Qiqi and was holding up a watch as he turned to question the Su Family.

Everyone looked closely.

They saw it.

It was a glittering gold Patek Philippe watch.

It was Su Zhenxing's watch, worth five million yuan.

Everyone was greatly shocked.

They had never expected Su Zhenxing's supposedly stolen watch to appear in Su Qiqi's pocket.

After his initial shock, Su Zhenxing's expression instantly turned extremely ugly.

Su Zhenxing had already understood.

His watch had never been lost at all!

Su Zhenxing also knew that Su Qiqi could not possibly have stolen his watch.

Su Qiqi had deliberately taken his watch to frame Su Chen for stealing it!

What was Su Qiqi doing?!

Was having a thief in the family something honorable?

Su Qiqi was an idiot!

Su Qiqi, meanwhile, was so frightened by everything that had happened that her face turned pale.

She had never imagined that Su Chen would find the watch in her pocket!

Su Qiqi deeply regretted not finding time to hide the watch. She had actually given Su Chen the chance to turn the tables!

What do I do now?!

Su Qiqi looked again at her father Su Zhenxing's dark expression, her mother Liu Yanran's disapproving look, and the shocked faces of her older sister Su Lili and younger brother Su Mu.

Su Qiqi was terrified.

Dad, Mom, eldest sister, younger brother... they don't really think I stole Dad's watch, do they?!

Heaven knows, I only wanted to frame Su Chen!

As Su Chen watched the expressions on the Su Family's faces, he sneered inwardly.

They had not acted like this when dealing with him just now. The moment the watch went missing and Su Qiqi led the charge, they had immediately accused him of being a thief who stole Su Zhenxing's watch.

And now?

He had searched the watch out of Su Qiqi's pocket, yet these people did not say a single word?!

Heh. Heh heh.

Su Chen had no time to concern himself with the Su Family's little thoughts.

He had something more important to do now.

This was the best time to establish that Su Qiqi was a thief.

Su Chen deliberately widened his eyes in surprise, held up the watch, and screamed heartbreakingly, "This is the stolen watch, right?!"

"So Su Qiqi was the one who stole the watch!"

"Su Qiqi is a thief!"

"Su Qiqi is not only a thief, she also viciously tried to pin the crime of theft on me!"

"Su Qiqi is both a thief and morally vile."

"Call the police! Call the police! I want to call the police!"

"The Su Family has a thief!"

"The thief even tried to frame me!"

"Call the police and arrest the thief!"

Su Zhenxing's face darkened as he bellowed.

"Why call the police?!"

"You are not allowed to call the police!"

"Is having a thief in the family something honorable?!"

"You are not allowed to call the police."

"Family shame must not be made public. No one is allowed to call the police!"

Su Zhenxing stared at Su Chen with a vicious glare and said fiercely.

"Especially you, Su Chen."

"You can't call the police, understand?"
