Mr. Manwei didn't seem to expect Xing Nian to refuse so directly. A trace of displeasure flashed across his face, and his tone became tougher: "Miss, I hope you won't make things difficult for us. If you don't cooperate, then we can only take necessary measures. You have to know that if we take action, you will not only lose face."

His words were full of threats, as if Xing Nian would face extremely serious consequences if he did not cooperate.

However, Xing Nian was not intimidated by his threats, she remained calm and firm.

"Mr. Manwei, you are just the organizer of this jewelry exhibition. What qualifications do you have to inspect other people's privacy in public?"

When Mr. Manwei saw Qi Anran, his expression immediately softened.

He looked Qi Anran up and down, then smiled and said, "Hello, Miss Qi. Regarding the loss of the jewelry, the surveillance has proved that it is related to this lady. I also want to resolve this matter as soon as possible. After all, today's jewelry exhibition has not ended yet, and I don't want this little episode to affect your mood."

Mr. Manwei obviously recognized Qi Anran's identity, and he knew that they could not afford to offend someone like Qi Anran. However, he had a different opinion about Xing Nian.

He had never seen Xing Nian's name on the guest list of the relevant international exhibition hall, and since she was dressed in ordinary clothes, Mr. Manwei thought she was just a follower trying to curry favor with Qi Anran.

In his mind, Xing Nian had been classified as one of those people who would do anything to curry favor with the powerful. Therefore, he dared to ask Xing Nian to be examined in person.

He was certain that Xing Nian would cooperate with their inspection in order to avoid being kicked out of the exhibition hall.

However, he was wrong. Even though Xing Nian did not have any prominent status, she was not someone who could be bullied.

Qi Anran wanted to step forward and argue with Manwei, but Xing Nian pulled her behind him.

"What Mr. Manwei said is not wrong. After watching the surveillance video, anyone would suspect that the loss of the jewelry is related to me."

Xing Nian responded calmly to Mr. Manwei's accusations.

She looked directly at Mr. Manwe and said firmly, "Mr. Manwe, you can search my belongings, but I also have my own requirements. Since you are so sure that the jewelry is still in the exhibition hall, I ask you to check the belongings of everyone present. How about it, Mr. Manwe?"

Mr. Manwei's expression suddenly turned very ugly.

Of course, he didn't dare to actually search the personal belongings of those VIP customers, which would not only offend them but also have an irreparable impact on his career.

He looked at Xing Nian, a hint of panic flashed in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down and tried to suppress Xing Nian with a tough attitude.

"You are being unreasonable!" Mr. Manwei said angrily, "We have enough evidence to prove that you are related to the loss of the jewelry. You must cooperate with our inspection now, otherwise..."

However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xing Nian. Xing Nian looked at him coldly and said, "What else? Mr. Manwei, who do you think you are? You are just an organizer. What qualifications do you have to threaten me here? Or does Mr. Manwei have more power than the police and can easily pin unfounded charges on innocent people?"

Mr. Manwei was intimidated by Xing Nian's aura, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond.

People at the scene also started talking about it. Some thought Xing Nian was too arrogant, but others thought Mr. Manwei was going too far.

Just then, a bodyguard tried to snatch Xing Nian's bag.

However, Xing Nian was very agile and she dodged the bodyguard's attack nimbly and even knocked the bodyguard to the ground with her backhand.

Seeing this, the other bodyguards rushed forward to attack Xing Nian. But Xing Nian was not afraid at all. With her extraordinary skills and quick reaction, she subdued the bodyguards one by one.

When Mr. Manwei saw this scene, his face instantly turned very ugly.

He realized that he had gotten into a big trouble, but he was already in a dilemma and had no choice but to continue.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and then said to Xing Nian again: "Ms. Xing, I hope you can understand my difficulties. I am also doing this for the safety and fairness of the entire jewelry exhibition. If you can cooperate with our inspection, I will be very grateful to you."

Wow, it's really lively, what are so many people doing together? A deep and attractive male voice sounded leisurely from the back of the crowd.

Everyone's eyes turned to the back, and they saw the legendary Mr. Mike walking slowly towards them with steady steps.

He was wearing a dark suit, looking dignified and elegant. The traces of time left on his face only added a bit of maturity and stability.

"Mr. Mike? Hasn't he participated in a jewelry exhibition for several years? I didn't expect him to come in person today." There were bursts of whispers from the crowd, all revealing their admiration and surprise for Mr. Mike.

Mr. Mike's position in the jewelry industry is unshakable. Even though there were many VIP customers present, they all showed him great respect.

Manwei, as the organizer of this jewelry exhibition, naturally knows Mr. Mike.

When he saw Mr. Mike, he immediately smiled, walked up to him quickly, bowed respectfully and greeted him: "Mr. Mike, welcome to our jewelry exhibition."

Manwei was also a little surprised. After all, Mr. Mike had not participated in such activities for many years.

But he was more worried about whether the accident that almost happened to Mr. Mike yesterday would affect his mood today. He noticed that Mr. Mike had a layer of gauze wrapped around his neck, and he felt mixed emotions.

"Mr. Mike, why did you come here in person? If you had told me in advance, I could have come to pick you up." Manwei tried to make his tone sound warm and sincere.

However, Mr. Mike did not look kindly upon Manwei.

He had just seen Manwei's unfair treatment of Xing Nian, and Mr. Mike felt very disgusted with this behavior of putting down the powerful and praising the weak.

He glanced at Manwe coldly and said mercilessly: "If you come to pick me up, will I still be able to see such a good show?"

Manwei was choked by Mr. Mike's words and could only smile awkwardly. He tried to explain that the loss of the jewelry was related to Xing Nian, and there was surveillance as evidence.

But Mr. Mike never gave him this opportunity. He interrupted Manwei coldly: "Mr. Manwei, your power seems to be too much. When did your power become greater than that of the police?"
