Chapter 630: A Few p.r.i.c.ks Should Be No Issue
Before Fiennes finished his sentence, he looked at Su Wan.
His expression was sincere, but his words were more steady and reliable than Diya’s. People could not help but believe him.
Su Wan’s heart could not help but waver. Indeed, the dress was wet and stuck to her body. It was too uncomfortable.
But the most fortunate thing was that her dress had three layers inside and three layers outside. Although Diya had poured a gla.s.s of wine on it, the color of the dress was only a little dirty, but it did not run.
Jiang Xuecheng stood beside Su Wan. When he saw Su Wan frowning and looking at the hem of her dress, he immediately understood what she was thinking.
It was indeed uncomfortable to wear something like this.
His eyes darkened. He followed Su Wan’s line of sight and looked at the dress that was dripping. In the end, he gave in.
The emperor did not even look at Diya. He directly instructed Fiennes.
“Alright then, Fiennes, find a maid to bring Su Wan to change her clothes.”
Hearing that, Diya felt a wave of anger in her heart. She had proposed to sacrifice her own clothes, but the emperor actually spoke to her brother. Did he completely treat her as air?!
Fiennes saw Diya’s sullen expression and immediately swept a glance at Diya, indicating that she should not act recklessly again.
Even her own brother was siding with outsiders!
Diya lowered her eyelids slightly. The corner of her eyes had indeed landed on Su Wan’s body, carrying a terrifying sharpness.
–this woman was definitely a vixen. She had charmed her brother so much that he was willing to do anything for her. Moreover, she did not let the emperor go and charmed the two of them so much that they were confused.
One was her closest brother, and the other was her beloved man. Yet, both of them were charmed by Su Wan!
If this continued, what would she do?!
Seeing that Fiennes was calling for maids, a brilliant idea suddenly appeared in Diya’s mind.
This was also a good idea. The Emperor had instructed someone to bring Su Wan to change her clothes. There was still some distance from the lounge, so she could get someone to do something.
Diya raised her eyebrows arrogantly and immediately ran to the side.
Fiennes noticed that his sister had run away. He thought that she was unhappy, so he simply went out to get some air.
Diya asked a waiter for a communication tool and contacted a maid that she trusted very much, Xiao Lin.
She quickly sent a few lines of words. After getting a reply, she immediately deleted the message.
Ha, she had long decided not to let Su Wan have it easy. It was only right to let that woman suffer a little more.
…
Maid Xiao Lin took the key and tiptoed into the lounge. In an instant, she threw many dresses to the ground and left a few footprints on them, making them messy.
On the hanger, there was only a lavender dress.
This dress was made of silk, and there were layers of gauze on the outside, with pale white edges.
This skirt was not the most beautiful of the dresses just now, but it was made of the most complicated material. Moreover, the color of the skirt was very dark. If some “things” were added to it, it would not be easy to notice.
If one wanted to do something bad, this kind of complicated skirt was the best to do.
After receiving the message from her young miss just now, maid Xiao Lin was actually a little fl.u.s.tered in her heart.
However, Xiao Lin was very clear about her master’s temper.
If she did not do as she was told, she was afraid that she would not know what kind of punishment she would receive.
Even if she stuck her head out, it would be cut. But after all, she was a servant of the Siswell family. The first thing she had to do was to obey Diya’s orders.
Moreover, she had not heard anything about the target that the eldest miss had just mentioned.
It should be… it should be fine, right?!
Xiao Lin pursed her lips worriedly, but when she thought that someone else might be coming soon, she hurriedly took out the things she had prepared.
In her slightly rough palm, a few sharp pins suddenly appeared.
Xiao Lin pursed her lips once again, secretly praying for her good luck.
She hoped that this matter would not implicate her in the end…
Just now, the young miss had also said that sometimes when the dress was not made to fit the body, it was normal to use a pin to fix the dress when there was no time to rush the work.
It was just a few p.r.i.c.ks from the needle, it should not be fatal, right?! Moreover, she was not the one who started it…
The maid, Xiao Lin, comforted herself, and the guilt she felt earlier faded a lot.
She finally made up her mind and immediately went around to the back of the clothes rack, carefully inserting the pins in her hands one by one.
She picked out a very particular place for the pins. There was a row of irregular patterns on the back of the lavender dress. The material there was very thick and heavy, and the pins were fixed there, so they would not easily pierce the skin.
But as long as the wearer walked a few more times, they would suffer sooner or later.
Xiao Lin fixed the pin on the dress and deliberately picked up the dress to take a second look. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, she was ready to leave the lounge.
However, she had only taken two steps when she heard the sound of someone unlocking the door!
Oh no, her movements were still a little slow. The woman who made the eldest miss angry was most likely brought here by someone!
Xiao Lin looked around in panic. When she saw that there was no place to hide, she immediately half-knelt on the ground and began to pick up the clothes that had fallen.
With a click, the door to the lounge was opened.
Two women suddenly appeared outside the door.
One of them was of course Su Wan, and the other was the maid, Xiao Xia, who had brought Su Wan here.
Xiao Lin pretended to be very surprised and raised her head. However, the thing that kept beating in her heart was so much that she almost fell into it.
Xiao Lin picked up the clothes and asked softly.
“Xiao Xia, who is this person next to you?”
Before Xiao Lin finished her sentence, Xiao Xia, the maid next to Su Wan, also asked.
“This is Miss Su. Xiao Lin, why are you here? Do you have to take all these gowns out to be washed?”
Xiao Lin nodded slightly and did not say anything more. When she thought of how the eldest miss had called Su Wan a vixen in the message just now, she could not help but look at Su Wan a few more times.
The woman standing at the door was indeed an exceptionally beautiful woman.
Although her gown was still dripping with water and she looked rather disheveled, it could not hide the dazzling feeling that Su Wan had.
She just stood there. The lights in the lounge shone on Su Wan’s face. Her pair of bright almond eyes were like autumn peach blossoms. Her black hair was like ink, and her bright eyes and white teeth were stunning no matter how one looked at her.
However, what surprised Xiao Lin the most was that Su Wan’s appearance was completely different from that of a vixen.
In her imagination, Su Wan should be a very bright and enchanting vixen, and not this kind of water-like beauty in front of her.
However, she was beautiful after all. No wonder Miss Diya was so angry!
Xiao Lin’s expression was sorrowful. When she met Su Wan’s gaze, she felt even more guilty — Miss Su, I’m really sorry.
“Xiao Xia, Miss Su, I still have something to do. Please go ahead.”
As Xiao Lin spoke, she gave Su Wan and Xiao Xia a hurried smile. She did not dare to look at Su Wan anymore.
She picked up the pile of gowns in a panic and ran out in a hurry.
