Chapter 543: No Violations

Only one could person could have been behind this.
Other than that powerful young master, no one else could have sent that message.
Yang Jiang had to take several moments to calm down. He took out his phone and immediately published a post on the website, saying that his parchment had been stolen by his potential trading partner.
The facilities of the organization were excellent and nearly unrivaled, so if that youngster had really stolen the artifact, then it would definitely have been caught by the security cameras.
‘Don’t think that you will be safe after pulling a fast one on me,’ Yang Jianggrumbled to himself.
‘There’s no way I’m letting you off.’
It didn’t take long for the organization to respond to his complaint. They notified him with a brief message:
“Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Upon examination of the surveillance footage, no violations have been committed by either party. We wish you a happy and successful life.”
Enraged, Yang Jiangslammed his fist against the desk.
…
Meanwhile, Yao Tanghad just come out of the long-winding tunnel.
She found herself in a small room, where she changed out of her disguise and put on a casual outfit.
She pocketed the parchment she had nicked and tossed her black garments into the shredder sitting in the corner.
After making sure that she looked all right, she calmly made her way out the door.
Looking around, she realized that she was in the public garden of a certain residential district.
Yao Tang walked down the pavement and saw magnificent villas lining up the street.
She took out her headphones and turned on the music on her phone before opening the map application. She used it to meander her way out of the high-end subdivision.
…
Yao Ran was sitting besideYan Weiin the car that was sent by the Yang family.
“Ranran, is your head injury better?” Yan Weiasked with a smile.
“It will be fine in a few days. Thank you for your concern, Weiwei.”
As she said this, Yao Ranreached out to touchYan Wei’s arm intimately, as if they were the closest of friends.
Yan Wei nodded and did not hesitate to pull away fromYao Ran’s grasp. “That’s good, then. You must have been bullied by that girl because of your good temper, huh?”
Deep down, though, she was rather annoyed that the incident with Yao Tangwasn’t of any help to her at all.
But Yao Ranwas still a member of theMusic Association, and the apprentice of a master, no less. She was bound to be beneficial toYan Wei, one way or the other.
Besides, she didn’t really mean what she had just said.
She didn’t think Yao Ranwas the type to be easily bullied, nor that she had a pleasant temperament.
What happened that day was only a coincidence. It wasn’t possible for that girl to have orchestrated the whole thing; it was more likely that she had been framed by Yao Ran.
Yao Ran pressed her lips together after noticingYan Wei’s not-so-subtle actions.
She, too, knew that Yan Weididn’t really care for her. Otherwise, the girl would have visitedYao Ranwhile she was in the hospital.
But not only did Yan Weinot drop by, she hadn’t called or texted, either.
These words of concern were nothing more than empty remarks.
Yao Ran had no delusions about the matter, but there was very little she could do. No matter how upset she was, she could only suck it up and move on.
She furrowed her brows and said, “That girl was originally on good terms with me, but she has been hanging out with new people lately, and they must have turned her against me. Well, even after what she did, I still can’t bring myself to hate her.”
Yan Wei felt like throwing up atYao Ran’s act, but she pretended to feel sympathetic. Two could play at this game, after all.
“You’re simply too kindhearted, Ranran. You’re always nice, even to your enemies. But think about this—if she really considered you her friend, then why would she harm you? I think she was only taking advantage of you, and waited for the opportunity to strike!”
Yao Ran lowered her head, her eyes welling up her tears. “No, she wouldn’t do that.”
Yan Wei was getting impatient at this point. It was all she could do not to openly sneer at the other girl. She waved her hand and changed the topic.
“All right, let’s not talk about this anymore. But I’m telling you, I’m not mistaken. I’ve seen a lot of girls like her. They don’t deserve to be treated well. Instead, they should be punished for their evil deeds. If you’re hesitating because you don’t want to do it yourself, then allow me to help you.”
With that, she took out a packet of wet wipes, took out a couple of sheets, and wiped her arm and hands.
Yao Ran’s eyes flashed at the sight, her hands clenching into fists. She gritted her teeth to keep from saying anything rude.
She had had to miss a few days of school because of her injury, but she still heard talk of the incidents that had followed after she had taken a leave of absence.
She knew that Yan Weiwas merely the illegitimate daughter of the Yan family.
