However, the old lady did not make an immediate decision.
She looked at Xu Ruyan and revealed some complex colors, then slowly said, "Since Xu Tao returned the things, there's no need to report it to the authorities.
Upon hearing these words, the entire crowd was confused.
The old lady had taken the wrong medicine and actually let Xu Tao off the hook so easily, how was that possible?
Xu Mingyu was incredulous.
Xu Ruyan, Liu Lan, and the others were also in disbelief.
"Grandma ..."
Xu Mingyu was very reluctant.
The old woman ignored Xu Mingyu.
"Xu Mingyu, don't destroy the internal unity of the Xu family!"
Liu Lan sneered.
"Hmph!"
Xu Mingyu suddenly thought of something and looked at Xu Tao with a cold smile, "Xu Tao, you've returned what you stole from Grandma, but my things, you should return them as well!"
"What things of yours? When did I ever take anything from you?"
Xu Tao was excited.
"I also lost a piece of the latest Rolex today, worth half a million dollars! Since you stole Grandma's things, you must have stolen my Rolex as well!"
Xu Mingyu scanned the crowd of the Xu family, "I'm sure everyone must have lost something as well!"
Of course, losing the Rolex was something he made up.
He just wanted to use this opportunity to blackmail the Xu Ruyan family for a sum of money.
Upon hearing this, the crowd around the Xu family had active minds and immediately understood Xu Mingyu's meaning.
"That's right, I lost a recent Hermes bag worth $200,000!"
"I also lost a pair of jadeite bracelets worth $160,000!"
"I also lost a pair of gold silk panties worth $30,000!"
...
Quite a few members of the Xu family all came forward to say.
"Xu Tao, I didn't expect you to steal so many things!"
Xu Mingyu's face was full of teasing, "Hurry up and hand them over, or I'll report you to the police!"
"Xu Tao, hurry up and give them the stuff back!"
Liu Lan s face was dark as she angrily rebuked.
"Mom, I didn't ... I didn't take her things!"
"I only took Grandma's things! It's also because Grandma often bullied my sister, I just wanted to help my sister!"
Xu Tao was on the verge of tears as she explained with a frightened face.
Upon hearing this, Liu Lan immediately understood something.
Since things had come to this point, there was no need for Xu Tao to lie.
The only possibility was that Xu Mingyu and the others had deliberately slandered Xu Tao in order to blackmail her for money.
Looking at Xu Mingyu's teasing eyes, she could only feel that this kid was just too sinister.
On the other hand, Xu Ruyan's heart was filled with emotion.
She hadn't expected her brother to steal from her grandmother in order to vent her anger!
This younger brother of hers, despite his bad habits, was quite defensive towards her.
"Xu Tao, don't try to get out of it, you stole Grandma's things, then the things we lost, you must have stolen them as well!"
"If you can't hand them over, pay for them with money, and I'll report you to the police right away! All these things together must be two million dollars! Enough to put you in jail for ten years!"
Xu Mingyu threatened.
Hearing these words, Xu Tao was even more terrified.
"A total of two million, right, this money, we give it to you!"
Xu Ruyan said with a deep voice.
Of course, she knew that this was Xu Mingyu's plan, but if she didn't give this money, once they reported to the police, regardless of whether or not they had investigated Xu Tao for stealing from Xu Mingyu and the others, the matter of stealing the old lady's dowry would definitely be revealed.
This matter would be enough to send Xu Tao to jail!
Two million dollars was almost all she had saved, but for the sake of this younger brother, she could only offer this money.
"Hahaha, Xu Ruyan, you're still the one who's open-minded! A total of two million dollars, just transfer it directly to me and I'll share it with you."
Xu Mingyu laughed out loud.
Seeing this scene, Xu Tao's face reddened and he clenched his fists in death, choking.
Liu Lan also looked pale.
"Wait!"
At that moment, Su Nantian, who hadn't said anything, suddenly opened his mouth.
"Su Nantian, what are you trying to say?"
Xu Mingyu raised his eyebrows.
The crowd also looked at Su Nantian in surprise, not knowing what he was going to do.
"Before Ruyan transfers the money you stole from me to you, shouldn't you return it to me as well?"
Su Nantian looked at Xu Mingyu and said weakly.
"Su Nantian, what the hell are you talking about? What did I steal from you?"
Xu Mingyu exploded in anger.
The crowd also showed a look of surprise.
"This ancient coin called Jianyan Yuanbao. I had one set, seven in total, and now I only have two, while the other five are missing!"
Su Nantian took out two Jianyan Yuanbao and introduced them.
"Su Nantian, it's none of my business if your things are missing? You're not going to say that I stole them, are you?"
Xu Mingyu said with a cold voice.
He was pretty sure that he had never even seen such a thing, let alone stolen it?
He was sure that Su Nantian was trying to plant evidence!
"Of course you stole it!"
Su Nantian's tone was decisive.
"Su Nantian, you're a mad dog, aren't you? Do you bite everyone you catch?"
Xu Mingyu cursed angrily, "Am I Xu Mingyu, someone who steals things? Besides, this copper coin of yours was probably taken from a stall, how much could it be worth, is it worth me stealing it?"
"That's it! Su Nantian, don't bite, there's no way Mingyu would steal from you!"
"This kind of trash of yours, give it to Mingyu and he won't even want it, he'll look at your stuff?"
"You social scum throwing around dirty water, apologize to Mingyu!"
The crowd all scolded Su Nantian.
"Then do you dare let me search your body to prove your innocence?"
Su Nantian looked provocatively at Xu Mingyu.
"What wouldn't I dare?"
How could Xu Mingyu stand Su Nantian's provocation and directly agree, "If the search doesn't turn up anything, I want you to kneel down and apologize to me!"
"Then what if it does come out?"
"What do you say?"
"Just admit that you stole my five Jianyan Yuanbao."
"Fine! However, there's no need for you to search, I'll do it myself."
Xu Mingyu had a cold smile on his face.
He hadn't stolen anything from Su Nantian, so how could he search anything?
After saying that, he began to take out all the things on his body one by one.
Cell phones, cigarettes, lighters ...
He thought there was nothing left, but at the end, he touched a round thing.
What is it?
With a puzzled look on his face, he took it out.
When he saw the appearance of this thing, his face changed drastically.
It was actually an ancient coin, just like the one in Su Nantian's hand.
And the entire crowd was completely stunned when they saw this scene.
Could it be that Xu Mingyu had really stolen something from Su Nantian?
In their opinion, Su Nantian simply didn't have the ability to bring the coin with him.
"Impossible ..."
Xu Mingyu looked at Su Nantian in disbelief, "It's you, that bastard, who set me up!"
"I set you up?"
Su Nantian laughed coldly, "You have to speak with evidence! If you have no proof, then obediently admit that you stole my Jianyan Yuanbao!"
This coin was the one he had just secretly placed in Xu Mingyu's pocket.
With his power mastery, how could Xu Mingyu have discovered it?
"I ..."
Xu Mingyu was speechless, he really didn't have any proof that Su Nantian had tricked him, this ancient coin, it was as if it had appeared in his pocket out of nowhere.
"Who the hell knows how this ancient coin of yours appeared in my pocket, anyway, it wasn't me who stole it."
Xu Mingyu wanted to deny it.
After all, how humiliating would it be if he admitted to stealing Su Nantian's things!
"Xu Mingyu!"
However, Old Lady Xu shouted angrily, "Stealing is stealing, do you even have the courage to admit it? I am so disappointed in you!"
Hearing this, Xu Mingyu was also confused and almost spat out blood in anger.
Even Grandma doesn't believe me?
Not true!
Grandma loves me so much that even if I stole it, she wouldn't let me admit it.
But now she wants me to admit it, isn't it clear that she doesn't care about my face and wants to help Xu Ruyan?
What the hell was that dead old woman thinking?
He subconsciously wanted to find the old lady to argue with, but when he looked up, he only saw the old lady's stern eyes and could only swallow his words.
Helplessly, he could only say, "All right, I'm the one who stole it, all right! Give it back!"
After saying these words, he angrily threw the ancient coin at Su Nantian's face, but it was caught by Su Nantian without fail.
"You stole five Jianyan Yuanbao from me, how come you only returned one, where are the other four? If you can't take them out, it's okay to give me money!"
Su Nantian said indifferently.
"Su Nantian, don't give an inch!"
Xu Mingyu glared angrily, "I only have one with me! What gives you the right to say that I stole four from you?"
"Even though Xu Tao took Grandma's things, you lost something, so why are you saying that Xu Tao stole it?"
Su Nantian said playfully, "Since you can even think like that, why can't I follow your thoughts? You stole one of my ancient coins, so you stole the other four as well!"
"Either you all admit that Xu Tao didn't steal from you! Or you'll pay me back the money for the four ancient coins!"
