“I didn’t take it!”


  But after all, as Yu Bao’er was in the wrong, she couldn’t answer him fiercely despite her aggrievedness. “I only saw it when I opened my luggage just now. I don’t know how your lighter ended up in my luggage. I don’t know!”


  “That’s strange. Are you saying someone else put it in your luggage? Don’t tell me my lighter ran into your luggage by itself……”


  Yu Bao’er truly felt aggrieved.

  Because she didn’t know how things got this way.

  But there was nothing she could say to defend herself, so she could only swallow down her aggrievedness and say, “Then where are you now? I’ll return your lighter to you.”


  “I’m in the capital. I remember you just got back home? Surely you’re not going to take a plane back here again?”


  Yu Bao’er thought about it. She had wanted to ask if she could send it by courier. “I heard from my brother that it’s very expensive. I fear the courier would lose it. Why don’t you wait for me? I’ll see if there’s a flight later. I’ll fly back and return it to you. If not, can you wait until tomorrow?”


  “Forget it, you wait for me in Dayi City. I’ll go over and take it myself.”


  Huo Yingcheng was confused as well.

  That lighter of his was a rather important belonging to him. He wasn’t so obtuse as to be nonchalant about losing an item that cost a few hundred thousand dollars.

  After all, it had a special meaning to him.

  Most importantly, he thought that he had lost it in Penalan. But it never occurred to him that it would be with Yu Bao’er.

  Yu Bao’er’s phone call indeed caught him off guard.

  Since he was in a bad mood due to losing a precious item, add to the fact that it absurdly ended up with Yu Bao’er, Huo Yingcheng’s first reaction was a certain thought. As such, his tone wasn’t that good. It was after hanging up the call did he realize that the person on the other end of the line sounded especially aggrieved? Hesitation set in.

  Was his tone too harsh earlier?

  Most importantly, it was spooky how the lighter ran to Yu Bao’er’s luggage on its own.

  It had been a day since he realized it was lost, but he didn’t show his anxiousness in front of other people. He hadn’t expected to hear from her about this.

  After ending the call, Yu Bao’er’s eyes turned red instantly, unable to hold herself back anymore. “I had no idea how that lighter ended up with me. I don’t know either!”


  She felt especially aggrieved, feeling like tears were going to slip down her cheeks any moment.

  Yu Kairan, who thought that this matter would be peacefully resolved, knew that Yu Bao’er had suffered a grievance during the phone call judging from her looks. But he could also understand the other party. Anyone would have the same suspicions if they lost something worth a few hundred thousand dollars, and a person suddenly called to say the item was with her.

  But he also knew that his younger sister was not such a person. When the lighter was taken out at first, she was also confused.

  He walked over and patted Yu Bao’er on her shoulder. “Don’t worry, it’s alright. Just return it to him. We all believe in you.”


  Seeing that her daughter was aggrieved to the point of tears, she raised a brow. “Why? Did the young lad speak harshly to you?”


  Based on what Yu Bao’er said earlier, the owner of the lighter was that guy who accompanied her around Penalan these few days.

  But this matter indeed wasn’t easy to explain. Though they believed in their daughter, others might not necessarily believe.

  Of course, it also depended on what that young lad said ultimately. If it was overboard, she, as her mother, wouldn’t sit by and do nothing.

  Yu Bao’er wiped the corner of her eye and shook her head. “I’m fine, he said he’ll come over and take it back tomorrow.”


  “Then ok, just return it to him. You did nothing bad, so you don’t have to worry.”
