Chapter 213 Lin Mansion 8

Yun Chu stood there, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her.

But in fact, she was carefully observing Ding You's expression and her every move.

As one of the players, Ding You must have had a personal task issued by the system. In addition, something was suddenly missing from the eldest lady's room, so it was difficult for Yun Chu not to associate the two things together.

Ding You didn't expect that just a pair of jade bracelets would cause such a big commotion.

Seeing the maids and servants searching every corner, she became more and more panicked.

She did take the jade bracelets, but she didn't want to do it. This was the first time she stole anything in her life.

But she had no choice, because stealing the pair of jade bracelets was a task given to her by the system.

Two hours ago, the lady went to the small kitchen to have lunch. It was not her turn to be on duty yet. The system issued the task to her at that time.

The mission is to steal the pair of jade bracelets from the Madam's jewelry box before 3pm.

Only if the mission is successful can she obtain a personal mission, and only if she obtains a personal mission will she avoid making mistakes easily in subsequent actions.

It was the Madam's meal time, and there was no one in the room. If she missed this opportunity, she couldn't guarantee when there would be a better time.

So she hesitated for only a moment before taking decisive action.

There were too many jewels in the jewelry box, and the lady seldom opened those jewelry boxes, so she hoped that she would not be discovered.

But now not only was it discovered, but it was discovered so early that she didn't even have time to think of how to deal with it.

If it is discovered that she stole the jade bracelet, the eldest lady will definitely not let her go.

She couldn't believe what would happen to her.

Ding You's face gradually turned pale, and his eyes were wandering.

His fingers unconsciously twisted the corners of his clothes, revealing his inner tension and anxiety.

Ding You looked around from time to time. When she accidentally made eye contact with another maid, her heart trembled. She clenched her hands into fists, as if trying to control her emotions.

Although she was very nervous and her eyes were full of panic, she quickly concealed it.

However, she couldn't deceive Yun Chu. Her little actions were too obvious in Yun Chu's eyes.

But Yun Chu was not in a hurry to expose Ding You.

After all, Ding You was still a maidservant of the eldest lady. Whether it was exposing or punishing her, it had to be done by the eldest lady. It was not the turn of a kitchen maid like her to step forward.

Besides, Ding You's little movements and expressions were so obvious that Yun Chu was not the only one who suspected her.

The maidservant beside her noticed Ding You's abnormality. She frowned slightly and her eyes stayed on Ding You for a moment.

She was a thoughtful woman, good at observing other people's expressions and behaviors, especially at such critical moments, she was more keenly aware that something was wrong.

She walked slowly towards Ding You, her tone somewhat tentative: "Ding You, you look a little nervous, are you hiding something from us?"

The head maid's voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for the maids and servants around to hear clearly.

Ding You's heart tightened, but she tried to stay calm and forced a smile on her face: "Sister Jingyue, I have nothing to hide from you. It's just that this is the first time I've encountered such a situation, and I'm a little scared."

At this moment, her heart was beating as fast as thunder, and she could feel her palms sweating.

Jingyue's words hit her heart like a heavy hammer. She knew that she had been suspected.

She lowered her head and dared not look at anyone, but everyone had stopped searching and looked at her.

Even the eldest lady set her eyes on Ding You.

The eldest lady frowned slightly, and she looked at Ding You with a sharp look.

"Ding You, you are a first-class maidservant beside me. You have the highest status besides Nanny Fan and Jingyue. I don't want to suspect that you are the one who stole the jade bracelet, but your behavior makes me have to suspect you."

The eldest lady spoke slowly, her voice filled with unquestionable authority.

A feeling of despair surged in Ding You's heart. She knew that things had reached a point where they were beyond redemption.

She lowered her head, not daring to look the eldest lady in the eye, and clenched her hands tightly, her nails digging deeply into her palms.

"Madam, it's really not me. How could I steal your things?"

The lady sighed and waved her hand.

Then two strong women came forward and surrounded Ding You.

"Search!"

Following Jingyue's order, the old women began to search Ding You's body mercilessly for any place where he might have hidden anything.

The maids searched her carefully, from her collar to her cuffs to the hem of her skirt, leaving no corner untouched.

But they did not find the pair of jade bracelets on Ding You.

"Madam, I really didn't steal your things. I have searched you and I really don't have anything on me."

Ding You breathed a sigh of relief. She was so nervous that she forgot that she had hidden the jade bracelet in the room.

Fortunately, she didn't think of putting it on her body, otherwise she would be finished if she was found on the spot.

Jingyue frowned slightly: "Ding You, I'm going to ask you one last time, did you take the things? If it was you, it would be better if you admit it earlier."

Ding You naturally couldn't admit it. If she did, how could she obtain her personal rules? So she had to grit her teeth and not admit it anyway.

"Sister Jingyue, it's really not me. I am a well-known first-class maid. How could I possibly steal Madam's jewelry?"

Seeing that Ding You didn't admit it, Jingyue looked at the lady who was drinking tea beside him.

Seeing the lady nod, Jingyue walked to Ding You.

"Madam has already given you a chance, but you didn't cherish it."

After saying this, she turned and walked out, followed by a group of maids and servants.

Soon, a group of people stopped at the door of Ding You's room.

As a first-class maid, Ding You had her own room.

Although it is not big, it is neatly decorated and warm.

But at this moment, no matter how cozy this place is, in the eyes of the maids and servants, there may be things hidden in places like beds and wardrobes.

The maids dispersed and began to search every corner of the room carefully.

Drawers, wardrobes, under the bed, and even the vase in the corner were not spared.

Suddenly, a maid's excited voice broke the silence: "Sister Jingyue, I found it!"
