When he saw Hua Shasha being dragged outside, Bai Wenping had no choice but to follow.

Watching them leave, Yun Wei felt a sense of triumph.

What had they been thinking, using her stuff to achieve their own goals? They must’ve thought it’d be all too easy.

Shen Weixia walked over to Lu Zhanting and smiled. “Lu Zhanting, is she the fiancé you told me about? She sure is smart and pretty. Oh, what a pity, such a pity…that I was too late and you met her first.”

Lu Zhanting gave Shen Weixia a piercing look.

Shen Weixia instantly raised his hands in surrender and said, “I’m kidding, just kidding. Wow, so scary. When have you ever been so smitten with a woman before?”

Not saying a word, Lu Zhanting lifted his glass of red wine and slowly took a sip.

Earlier on, he had definitely been a tad worried that Yun Wei wouldn’t be able to handle Bai Wenping and Hua Shasha.

And that was why, even though no one had expected him to attend this event, he had come with her.

Now, having seen how his little woman, so quick-witted and intelligent, had adeptly worked the crowd, orchestrating events and eventually getting the outcome she wanted, all while pretending to be intellectually challenged, Lu Zhanting’s expression was one of smug satisfaction.

Shen Weixia was a personal friend of his. Initially, he had intended to help Yun Wei by intervening and recommending that Shen Weixia do the appraisal.

However, it turned out that he didn’t need to interfere since Yun Wei had noticed Shen Weixia at the party and already come up with a plan to have the crowd pressure Jian Zhifei into asking Shen Weixia to appraise the necklaces.

This little woman had shown Lu Zhanting a whole new side of herself, deepening his understanding of her.

When the birthday party was in full swing, Jian Zhifei, with a wine glass in hand, walked over to Yun Wei and said, “Yun Wei, despite everything, I still want to thank you for what happened earlier. If it hadn’t been for you, my reputation would have suffered irreparable damage because of Hua Shasha.”

Although she was a woman, Jian Zhifei was open-minded and straightforward, just like a man.

“It was my duty to do so. In fact, it’s everyone’s responsibility to expose scammers,” Yun Wei said, smiling in return.

Jian Zhifei didn’t ask any more questions about the real versus fake necklace incident from earlier. To the crowd, it was just entertainment, but through her observations, she had formed her own opinion about Hua Shasha and Yun Wei’s relationship.

Although their conversation was brief, the pair had nonetheless, through that incident, been given a new perspective of each other.

Toward the end of the party, Yun Wei casually strolled out of the event venue.

Hua Shasha and Bai Wenping hadn’t yet left the area.

Instead, they were waiting at a far corner for Yun Wei.

After what happened earlier that night, they suspected that Yun Wei, having recovered from her head injury and regaining her IQ, had intentionally set them up.

Shocked, scared, regretful, and panicked, Hua Shasha and Bai Wenping desperately wanted to clarify some things with Yun Wei.

Their sense of regret, however, wasn’t for having scammed Yun Wei but for being unable to get their hands on Yun Wei’s necklace, despite having spent so much of their own money and time.

When they saw Yun Wei appear at the exit, they rushed toward her.

Hua Shasha fiercely demanded, “Yun Wei, what’s wrong with you? Why did you come here today? And what’s the deal with the necklace?”

Yun Wei immediately feigned innocence and replied, “I came here with some classmates. The necklace is exactly what it is. A necklace. Something that Auntie Ji gave me.”

She spoke like an innocent kid, sounding like someone with the IQ of a four- or five-year-old.

Sounding desperate, Hua Shasha asked, “Why have you got the real necklace? And why did you wear it to this event?”

“Since it was something from Auntie Ji, I decided to wear it. Shasha, are you upset?” Yun Wei still pretended not to understand anything.
