Chapter 267 - 267: Appraisal
When someone heard this, he shouted, “Then, won’t we know what’s going on if we check the surveillance cameras?”
Su Ning’s eyes instantly became flustered.
She had just taken out the box, and the surveillance camera had probably recorded the process of her taking out the box.
If they checked the surveillance cameras, everything she had done would be exposed.
Looking at Su Ning’s hesitant gaze, Guo Miao understood what Su Ning meant.
“Su Ning, we have to check the surveillance camera today.” Guo Miao’s voice was cold as if she was urging Su Ning to her death. Su Ning felt her brain go numb.
“What do you mean? Do you think I’d accuse you wrongly?” Su Ning braced herself and said, “If we check the surveillance cameras, it will bring a lot of trouble to the Tongs. It’s better not to check them.”
When everyone heard this, they began to discuss it among themselves.
“Didn’t Su Ning just swear that Miss Guo must have stolen it?”
“Yes, yes. Why are you stopping us from checking the surveillance cameras now? Could it be that you have a guilty conscience?”
“I think she’s going crazy because she wants to marry Tong Pei. That’s why she’s like this now. Unfortunately, the Tong family doesn’t want her to be their granddaughter-in-law at all.”
Just as everyone was discussing, someone pushed open the door and entered. He was a jewelry appraiser from the Tongs’ company.
Jinyue Group had a jewelry business now, so there were many professional jewelry appraisers. The one who came today was Ai Lu, who had just been certified internationally.
“May I ask if you want to appraise this red jade bracelet?” the jewelry appraiser asked.
Guo Miao nodded.
The appraiser took the bracelet from Su Ning, who was on the verge of a breakdown.
He looked around carefully and then took out some identification equipment from his bag. He placed the device on the table, then placed the bracelet on it and began to carefully examine the traces on it.
This was a high-grade imitation of this bracelet. If one did not look carefully, one would not be able to see any flaws. If they wanted to imitate this bracelet, most traders would use the method of faking floating flowers.
However, the red floating flower was very difficult to fabricate. Even if it was created, it would be difficult to be as natural as the original floating flower.
However, the flowers on this bracelet were very well forged. The red color seemed very elegant in the bracelet, and there was almost no flaw.
“The technique used to make this bracelet’s floating flower is very exquisite, but there is a red deposit at the bottom of the floating flower. Although it is not obvious, it can be seen that this bracelet is indeed fake,” the jewelry appraiser said.
Su Ning’s face turned red. She was the one who was the joke tonight.
Not only did Tong Pei directly reject the engagement, but Guo Miao also slandered her because of a fake bracelet.
Tong Ling stood on the other side and looked at Su Ning. She had already cursed Su Ning ten thousand times in her heart.
This woman had to drag her into her bad deeds.
Originally, their family had a conflict with Tong Pei, and Su Ning and Tong Ling had a good relationship. Now, it was even more obvious that Su Ning was deliberately trying to harm Tong Pei’s friend.
Su Ning collapsed and sat on the ground. “I bought this bracelet at a high price in a jewelry store. How could it be fake? Even if Guo Miao didn’t steal this bracelet, I was tricked by accident.”
“Did you tell them that this bracelet is fake?” The jewelry appraiser looked at Guo Miao.
Guo Miao nodded.
The jewelry appraiser was a little surprised. He almost couldn’t see the problem with the bracelet, but this young girl spotted it at a glance.
If he didn’t have rich experience in collectibles, he would be a genius in jewelry appraisal.
Ai Lu looked at Guo Miao with admiration. “How did you know that there was something wrong with this jade?”
“The amount of deposits at the bottom of the floating flower is not what a jade of this quality should have. And the floating flowers on it look a little stiff.”
Ai Lu nodded approvingly.
When the dust settled, everyone’s attention shifted to Su Ning again.
“Why are you all looking at me? Are you so sure that I did it?” Su Ning was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
In front of so many people, the engagement was refuted, and the bracelet she bought was declared fake. She was afraid that she would never be able to face the Tongs again.
“I didn’t do it on purpose. I was cheated by the jewelry store. This is all a misunderstanding. Don’t check the surveillance cameras..”
