This was also because Cao Bin's reputation was too bad. Li Shishi locked the suspicion on Cao Bin without even thinking about it.

"Since Miss Shishi doesn't believe in my character, let's search it."

With that said, Cao Bin ordered:

"Come here, summon all the maids and servants in the house. I want to search the inner courtyard and clear the suspicion."

Seeing Cao Bin being so straightforward, Master Li hesitated a little and said:

"Little Marquis, why don't we forget it and wait until you find my jade bracelet and ask Shiniang to return it to me."

But Cao Bin said firmly: "No, Miss Shishi must watch me search, otherwise wouldn't I be wronged in vain again?"

Du Shiniang stepped forward and pulled Cao Bin's sleeve and said:

"Cao Lang, why don't we talk about it later. Just leave Senior Sister's clothes and jewelry to me."

Cao Bin was speechless and said, "Do you even think I took it?"

Du Shiniang looked at Cao Bin carefully and said:

"When Senior Sister was changing, the clothes she changed were placed outside to dry. If the inside and outside were not coordinated, how could anyone steal Senior Sister's...jewelry?"

Cao Bin shook his head and said: "Okay, since you all come to doubt me, then we have to search even more. Otherwise, wouldn't it stain my innocence?"

He doesn't care much about reputation, but he doesn't want to take a scapegoat for others, and it's such an obscene scapegoat!

Hearing this, Du Shiniang couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Master Li was also very speechless. There seemed to be nothing innocent about Cao Bin's reputation.

In a short time, dozens of servants and servants gathered in the courtyard.

Cao Bin stood up, walked to everyone and said:

"Miss Shishi came to my house as a guest, but she lost her clothes and jewelry. Which of you took them?"

"Now that I stand up, I can get a lighter sentence."

Everyone looked at each other in silence for a long time, looking at Cao Bin with doubts in their eyes.

Cao Bin was a little helpless. Even his own servants didn't trust his character. It seemed that there was a long way to go to reverse his reputation.

At this time, Cao Bin’s nanny Zhang stood up and said:

"Master, our family is very strict and we have not had a thief in decades. Is it because Miss Shishi was negligent and forgot her jewelry somewhere?"

Cao Bin shook his head and said, "Her clothes and jewelry were all lost. How could it be due to negligence?"

He glanced at everyone and said:

"Since no one admits it, let's search and clear my suspicion."

"Mother Zhang, you and others will be responsible for the search."

Nanny Zhang had no choice but to agree.

Cao Bin said to Master Li again: "Miss Master, please supervise yourself to see if I, Cao Bin, did it."

The first person to be searched was the little maid who was waiting for Master Li to change clothes. In fact, she was the biggest suspect.

But who said Cao Bin's reputation is worse?

However, Cao Bin took it seriously and kept a close eye on the actions of Nanny Zhang and others, fearing that they would be negligent and let the fish slip through the net.

Seeing Cao Bin's expression, the little maid felt aggrieved.

Fortunately, Grandma Zhang and others did not find any suspicious items.

In the blink of an eye, more than half an hour had passed. After leaving Cao Bin's main room, all rooms had been searched.

Grandma Zhang looked at Cao Bin's main room and said hesitantly:

"Master, there is no need to search your house, right?"

Cao Bin looked upright and said without hesitation: "The key point is my room, search it! Search it carefully for me. You must let Miss Shishi see clearly who I am."

Seeing that Cao Bin was so determined, Grandma Zhang felt relieved.

Cao Bin said to Du Shiniang and Li Shishi:

"Don't you doubt me? You have to look carefully, and don't say that you didn't check carefully later."

Du Shiniang pulled Master Li's sleeve and said:

"Senior Sister, actually I believe in Cao Yan!"

Li Shishi remained calm, but his eyes sharpened, and he kept up with Grandma Zhang and her group.

Du Shiniang had no choice but to follow forward and quietly opened her lips behind Master Li and said:

"Cao Lang, have you hidden yourself?"

Cao Bin rolled his eyes speechlessly and ignored her.

Nanny Zhang first turned over the bed and said, "Miss Shishi, please look, there is none!"

When Master Li nodded, she rummaged through the boxes and checked them one by one. She made sure that Master Li could see clearly before he moved on to the next item.

Seeing that the search had come to an end, Cao Bin couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction and asked:

"You should believe this, there is no way I would do such a thing..."

At the moment he was speaking, Nanny Zhang opened a box, but suddenly closed it. She turned back and smiled in embarrassment:

"Miss Shishi, don't look at this box. It doesn't have your things."

"Here are some personal belongings of my young master. It is not convenient to display them."

Li Shishi looked suspicious. She looked at Cao Bin and fell silent.

Cao Bin quit and immediately said:

"Mother Zhang, there is no need to cover up for me. I have nothing to show others. Just open it and make sure Miss Shishi can see it clearly."

Grandma Zhang winked at Cao Bin repeatedly and said:

"Master, don't display those items of yours in public..."

But Cao Bin said very firmly: "No, you must clear my suspicion and open it!"

He himself knew that the most in the box were some erotic albums, what couldn't be displayed? Who doesn’t have these in their collection?

My collection just has a richer variety.

Seeing Cao Bin being so determined, Grandma Zhang said helplessly: "Master, you asked me to open this..."

Seeing Cao Bin nodding firmly, Grandma Zhang opened the box without hesitation.

Everyone quickly looked into the box. Cao Bin smiled and said, "How about it? Just believe it this time. I won't do such a thing at all."

However, when he finished speaking, he didn't hear anyone's response.

Seeing everyone looking at him with strange eyes, Cao Bin smiled nonchalantly and said:

"What are you looking at me for? Isn't it just some picture albums? Don't tell me you haven't read them."

With that said, he also stepped forward and looked at the box.

I saw a pile of clothing and jewelry lying quietly in a box above the album.

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"

Cao Bin could hardly believe his eyes.

Master Li's clothes actually came to his room. What the hell is going on?

Only then did Master Li react and quickly put away his clothes to block Cao Bin's sight.

Then, she stared at Cao Bin with shame and annoyance, her eyes full of disgust.

I had already changed my opinion of Cao Bin, and felt that he still had some talents. Perhaps his bad reputation was a misinformation among the people, but I didn't expect that he was really such a wretched person.

Du Shiniang looked at Cao Bin speechlessly and said, "Cao Lin, what else do you have to say?"

She was quite angry.

Cao Bin said sarcastically: "I said I don't know where these things came from. Do you believe me?"

Du Shiniang rolled her eyes and said, "Cao Lang, you better stop talking!"

Cao Bin is extremely wronged now. He doesn't know who did such an immoral thing, and he can't clean himself up by jumping into the Yellow River now.
