    When they reached the study room, Shi Xi continued to lead a rotten life.


    When night fell, the butler entered solemnly and said to Shi Xi, “Princess Consort, when we were checking the auction items, we found that a ne was missing.”


    Shi Xi came back to her senses. “What is it?”


    The butler repeated the order. “Checking the auction items, we found the ne donated by Miss Kasse has disappeared!”


    Shi Xi’s eyes focused and she frowned slightly. “Gather everyone who has touched the ne. At the same time, check the surveince cameras and see when the ne was lost.”


    Hua Ruoling looked at Bonita in shock. “You actually lost your ne? That’s a gift you received at youring-of-age ceremony. What should we do? Why would someone steal from the pce?!”


    Hearing Hua Ruoling’s words, Bonita’s eyes were brimming with tears.


    The corner of Shi Xi’s mouth twitched.


    Bonita had donated the ne.


    What was the point of saying all this?


    “Princess Consort, please help me find the ne.” Bonita bit her lip. Her eyes were red like a rabbit’s.


    “As long as the ne is still in the pce, we will definitely be able to find it.”


    The servants in the pce had already started searching everywhere. All the servants who had touched the ne were searched. Even Hua Ruoling and Bonita were searched.


    “Maybe the person who stole the ne has already left the pce!” Hua Ruoling shouted. “Let’s seal the pce gate first!”


    Shi Xi narrowed her eyes.


    If she wanted to seal the pce gate, she would have to apply to the Queen.


    That would be a big deal.


    Shi Xi lowered her eyes and asked, “Have you pulled up the surveince footage?”


    Sena ced theptop on Shi Xi’s desk and tapped on a suitable spot. “I’ve already transferred it out. The second inventory check, it’s not in the box anymore.”


    The surveince camera clearly captured everything in the garden, Bonita handed the ne to Shi Xi, who epted it.


    When she returned to the study, Bonita registered it directly. She didn’t open the box and ced it beside her.


    When the second inventory check was done, the box was empty.


    During this time, the maids came and went, and the box often fell into a corner on the table. It was unknown when it was lost.


    The butler returned and reported, “We’ve checked all the people who came into contact with the box. None of them hid the ne.”


    Hua Ruoling’s eyes darted around. “Speaking of which, Shi Xi, you’ve alsoe into contact with the ne.”


    Everyone’s gazended on Shi Xi.


    In the beginning, it was Bonita who had given the ne to Shi Xi.


    But no one would suspect Shi Xi.


    That was the Princess Consort!


    Shi Xi narrowed her eyes.


    So, was this a trap designed for her?


    “First of all, you shouldn’t call me by my name. You should call me Princess Consort.” Shi Xi raised her chin slightly and corrected Hua Ruoling’s mistake.


    Hua Ruoling’s eyes widened. “You!”


    Shi Xi smiled faintly. “Secondly, I have money. If I really like it, I will bid for it myself and not use such a method.”


    “Who knows what you’re thinking? Hmph!” Hua Ruoling snorted. “Since you think you didn’t steal it, then let us search it!”


    “Who dares to touch the Princess Consort?” Standing in front of Shi Xi, Sena frowned and said, “You are disrespecting the Princess Consort!”


    Hua Ruoling’s eyes darted around. “The innocent are innocent. If the Princess Consort did not steal the ne, why would she be afraid of being searched? Princess Consort, don’t you agree?”


    Shi Xi sat in her wheelchair, a faint smile in her ck eyes.


    As expected, the simplest method was the most effective.


    Shi Xi did not even know where the ne had been ced.


    However, seeing how confident Hua Ruoling was, she definitely could not allow Hua Ruoling to search!
