Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 739 Zhang Wei's Eighth Sock

"That's true."

Wanyu nodded, agreeing that Youyou's idea made a lot of sense.

If the guests were people like Lisa and the senior brother who have good relationships with everyone, then it wouldn't be a problem for them to shout that they lost their rings.

Since it was Ke Xinling's first time visiting, and she wasn't very familiar with everyone, if they were to shout at the top of their lungs that something was missing from their home, the other party would inevitably have some suspicions.

Not to mention that the relationship between Youyou and Xinling is already quite ambiguous, and Xinling might even think that Youyou did it on purpose.

And if they find the diamond ring quickly after they finish shouting, that's fine, but if the diamond ring can't be found for a while...

Even disregarding Cyndi Wang's heart condition, this is not how guests should be treated.

Wanyu asked, "So what do we do now?"

Upon hearing this, Youyou was immediately stumped. After a long while, she weakly suggested, "How about... we don't tell anyone yet, and try to find it ourselves?"

Wanyu thought for a moment and said, "That works too."

So the two of them picked up their small flashlights and searched the bedroom one last time, finally confirming that the diamond ring was definitely not in Guan Gu's bedroom.

They opened the bedroom door and came out. Everyone had already finished lunch and was sitting on the sofa chatting.

"Wanyu, Youyou, you're finally out?"

Zhanbo, who was playing games with Ziqiao, turned to look at the two of them, his hands still frantically typing: "We saw the food was getting cold, so we were going to call you."

"But Nanfeng said you have something very important to do and asked us not to disturb you."

"How's it going? Have you finished your work?"

Wan Yu forced a smile and said perfunctorily, "We... should be considered done with our work."

Upon hearing this, Zhanbo casually handed the game controller to Guangu, then stood up and asked, "You guys didn't eat much just now, let me go heat up the food again."

"No."

Wan Yu glanced at Youyou, then smiled helplessly at Zhanbo: "We're both quite full, Zhanbo, you don't need to bother."

"oh."

Zhanbo obediently sat down.

After leaving the bedroom, Youyou kept staring at Nanfeng, hoping to get information about the whereabouts of the Ocean Star from him.

However, Nanfeng simply shrugged at her, indicating that she didn't know where Ocean Star was either.

He was so engrossed in watching the drama unfold that he didn't even notice when the Ocean Star fell from Youyou's hand.

However, Nanfeng was already used to the mysterious disappearance of the diamond ring. After all, the owner of the Ocean Star was Yu Mo, a ruthless person who could lose a diamond ring twenty-six times in three days.

It's only been a little over a month, and Ocean Star has already gone missing nearly fifty times. No matter what, one more time won't make a difference.

Anyway, the diamond ring won't grow legs and run away if it's left in the suite, and no one in the apartment will take it to exchange for money. At most, it will just take a little more time to look for it.

Although Nanfeng remained calm about it, Youyou was still extremely anxious after losing her diamond ring.

Even though she hasn't asked about the price of the Ocean Star yet, Youyou knows that this pigeon egg is something she could never afford to pay off, no matter how many credit cards she maxes out.

I won't be able to sleep peacefully tonight until I find the Heart of the Ocean!

As Youyou was thinking, she saw Yu Mo smiling and waving at her and Wanyu.

"Youyou! Wanyu!"

Yu Mo grabbed Mei Jia's hand and proudly showed it to the two of them: "Come here quickly and see how the manicure I did for Mei Jia looks."

"it is good."

Youyou and Wanyu agreed, and they moved slowly with their heads down, their eyes wide open, not missing a single spot on the ground beneath their feet.

Ziqiao looked up at the two people who were practically burying their heads in the floor: "Why are you two hunched over like that? Did you hurt your backs?"

"no."

Without looking up, Youyou said, "We're... lowering our center of gravity. The doctor said that temporarily lowering the center of gravity is good for the body."

Ziqiao raised an eyebrow upon hearing this: "There are doctors who specialize in this area?"

Wan Yu waved her hand and said, "Medical culture is profound and extensive, it's normal that you don't understand it, Zi Qiao."

Ziqiao and Guangu exchanged a silent glance, then said in unison, "Why does this sound so familiar?"

"Hey, you two, hurry up!"

Yu Mo had no patience to watch Wan Yu and You You shuffle over like turtles with their heads down. She got up and swiftly pulled the two of them over.

"Look, this is the manicure I did for Meijia. Isn't it just as good as what you get at a nail salon?"

Yu Mo squinted smugly, her face practically screaming, "Praise is the answer!"

"Mmm, it looks good, it's really good."

"Mmm, it's absolutely gorgeous!"

Yu Mo's face fell immediately at Youyou and Wanyu's perfunctory praise.

"Hey, your compliments are so half-hearted!"

She glared at the two people who were stroking the sofa with obvious displeasure: "You two would rather look at the sofa with affection than admire my masterpiece?"

Wanyu and Youyou were reaching their hands into the gaps in the sofa and rummaging around. When they heard Yumo's complaint, they quickly looked up and glanced at him, then lowered their heads and continued searching for the ring.

"Mmm, okay, okay."

"Great, great, really great."

Yu Mo: (⊙﹏⊙)

Yumo: (╯▔ dishes▔)╯! ! !

"you!"

Yu Mo was furious at the two girls' perfunctory attitude. She never expected that she would experience the feeling of being unappreciated and unvalued from her two best friends, even though she had never been treated perfunctorily by her boyfriend.

Seeing this, Xinling asked, "Youyou, Wanyu, did you lose something? Do you need us to help you look for it?"

Upon hearing this, the two paused, then looked up and laughed in unison.

"No!"

Youyou chuckled and said, "We're just doing this out of boredom. Maybe we'll find some forgotten treasures hidden in the cracks of the sofa."

Cyndi looked suspicious: "Baby?"

"Yes, for example, for example..."

As Youyou touched it, she actually felt something soft and squishy through the gap in the sofa.

Without thinking twice, she pulled out the item: "Like this!"

Everyone glanced at what Youyou pulled out of the sofa, and they were all so frightened that they pinched their noses.

Youyou looked down and saw that she was holding a patched black sock in her hand, and her stomach churned instantly.

With her eyes closed, she disdainfully tossed her socks onto the coffee table.

Mika covered her mouth and nose angrily and said, "Who is this? How could they be so rude as to stuff their socks here!"

She turned to Ziqiao and demanded fiercely, "Lu Ziqiao, confess now! Are these socks yours?!"

"I'm innocent!"

Ziqiao pointed to the socks on the coffee table and said, "How could my socks have patches on them? These are clearly Zhang Wei's!"

Upon hearing this, Meijia's anger flared instantly: "How come Zhang Wei's socks are in our suite?"

Ziqiao covered his nose and waved his hand: "You're asking me such a private question?"

Nanfeng curled her lip: "Now I know why Zhang Wei only has seven socks. So the legendary eighth one is here."

Everyone stared at the socks on the coffee table with disgust. Even Youyou and Wanyu stopped groping around, afraid that they might find something strange in the gap between the sofa and the socks.

Although Zhang Wei's socks definitely didn't smell, otherwise they wouldn't have stayed in the sofa crevices for so long without anyone noticing, they were still disgusting.

Who knows if Zhang Wei just washed this sock or if it's already been worn!

Everyone exchanged glances and ultimately decided that Youyou, who had already touched the socks, should go along with it and try to get rid of them.

After much deliberation, Youyou finally threw the socks in front of Zhang Wei's bedroom door.

When Youyou returned, everyone felt uncomfortable sitting on the sofa no matter how they sat. They kept wiggling their buttocks, as if the sofa was covered with sharp spikes.

Seeing this, Wanyu's eyes lit up. She suggested, "Why don't we lift up the sofa cushions together and clean the gaps in the sofa properly?"

[You might also be able to look for a diamond ring while you're at it.]

Youyou instantly understood Wanyu's meaning, and her eyes suddenly lit up: "Yes, yes, this sofa really needs a thorough cleaning. Nobody wants to be sitting on someone else's smelly socks, right?"

"Hmm, that makes sense."

Everyone stood up at once, and even Xinling helped move the sofa cushions.

After the sofa cushions were removed, everyone was completely stunned.

To be honest, there are some hidden talents under the sofa in 3602.

A Coca-Cola bottle cap, a crumpled tissue, a few scattered kernels of popcorn, potato chips crushed into pieces, and a lollipop in its original packaging...

The sight of all this mess made everyone dizzy. Without saying a word, Meijia grabbed a broom and dustpan from the balcony, ready to sweep it all away.

"Wait a minute!"

Youyou suddenly stopped Meijia. She lowered her head and examined the trash carefully and attentively, trying to find the sparkling brilliance of the diamonds in the trash.

Everyone was puzzled when they saw Youyou staring wide-eyed at the pile of garbage without blinking.

Youyou examined it three times before finally confirming that the Ocean Star had not been accidentally thrown into the gap of the sofa.

She immediately waved her hand dejectedly and, together with Meijia, swept the trash away.

I searched the floor and couldn't find it, nor was it inside the sofa. Where could the diamond ring have gone?
