After Rebirth, My Fiancé Helps Me Avenge the Wicked Scum-Chapter 166: The Stolen Treasure Iron Box

Chapter 166: The Beloved Iron Box Stolen

Mengyu coldly said, "What if later you accuse me of burning the wrong clothes?"

After Mengyu and Gu Dongxing had left, the crowd of onlooking neighbors, seeing no more drama to watch, dispersed as well.

Of course, as they scattered, they continued to discuss the matter of the Jiang Family, gaining another layer of understanding about Li Chunhua, the Top-grade woman. After returning home, they warned their families not to associate with Li Chunhua anymore.

Only then did Li Chunhua return to her room to tidy up the clothes that Mengyu had pulled out.

Of course, her top priority was to check on the iron box at the very bottom.

However, when she opened the partition, she fished around beneath it repeatedly and could not find her beloved iron box, which made her face turn pale.

She took out everything from the bottom cabinet, but still couldn’t find her beloved iron box. She felt as if the sky had fallen and sat down on the ground in despair, "Oh my God—"

Jiang Haidong saw her like this and couldn’t help but be puzzled, "What’s wrong with you?"

Suddenly, she jumped up ready to rush out while yelling, "It’s her, it must be her who stole it. It must be her who stole my treasure!"

Jiang Haidong held her back, "What’s the use of going out now? They left by car. Do you think you can outrun a car? What did you lose?"

"That iron box, that iron box so long and so wide!" Li Chunhua gestured.

"Is it that iron box you used for your dowry?" Jiang Haidong asked.

Li Chunhua nodded, "Yes, yes, yes, it’s the box I used for my dowry!"

Jiang Haidong had naturally seen her beloved box.

She never allowed him to touch it, and he didn’t know what was inside.

He said with suspicion, "Really? Although I didn’t enter the room, I saw very clearly that when she came out of our room, her hands were empty.

That box is so big; it can’t possibly fit in a pocket."

Yes, that small iron box was about one foot long, half a foot wide, and half a foot high; something that big could definitely not fit in a pocket and had to be carried in hands.

But she was also certain that when she came out of the room, her hands were empty.

Moreover, when Mengyu ran into the room, she had rushed in after her. Then, she had been chasing Mengyu the whole time and hadn’t once lost sight of her.

Although Mengyu had opened the bottom of the cabinet, Mengyu had barely opened it when she pounced on Mengyu; Mengyu had no time to rummage through that bottom cabinet.

It was clear she had come out empty-handed; could one person be mistaken, and two as well?

If she had taken the clothes away, it could be argued that she might have packed the iron box with the clothes after she had checked.

However, she had burned all her own clothes.

What she truly took away were only some books.

She certainly couldn’t claim that her iron box was hidden among those books, could she?

Moreover, before her books from junior high and below had all been sold as waste paper, only leaving her high school textbooks.

How many books could there be from two years of high school?

Those books were not carried away in a box but were tied up with rope into two bundles when taken away.

Besides, her iron box was black, and the books had a slight yellow tint; her black iron box simply couldn’t have been smuggled out by the books!

What frustrated Li Chunhua the most was that in the end, Mengyu took her items outside into the courtyard, even asking her to check to make sure she hadn’t smuggled anything.

After the check, she even had her declare that there was nothing taken from the Jiang Family.

Even then, she had asked the neighbors to bear witness!
