Her beautiful phoenix eyes assessed Su Yanyan from head to toe, then laughed, “I thought you looked like a child in adult’s clothes, that toasting dress couldn’t fit more badly, and the stylist obviously failed their job. Now I understand why – it’s because the dress is stolen from me.”

Her beautiful phoenix eyes assessed Su Yanyan from head to toe, then laughed, “I thought you looked like a child in adult’s clothes, that toasting dress couldn’t fit more badly, and the stylist obviously failed their job. Now I understand why – it’s because the dress is stolen from me.”

“Su Yanyan, stealing men were bad enough and now you’re stealing clothes too? Aren’t you ashamed?” Mo Weiyi chimed in immediately.

Looking at her best friend, Su Wanwan swallowed her laughter before continuing, “What puzzles me is why you’re so fond of snatching my things? This dress, if I recall correctly, was specially tailor-made for me by grandpa. You secretly took and wore it, and not only that, you even dirtied it so much. And you’re brazenly making a scene in front of everyone. I’ve seen theft before, but never have I seen someone so arrogant in doing so!”

With a “whoosh”, the place again erupted into discussions.

“No, I didn’t steal, I didn’t steal it!” Su Yanyan shrieked.

But by now, the spectators had already started discussing:

“Holy shit, I can’t keep up with the plot twists!”

“Did the bride really steal the dress from her sister?”

“Stealing men and clothes now?”

“Did she also steal the jewelry?”

“My, my, this might be the legendary kleptomania.”

For the first time, Su Yanyan felt like a condemned mouse everyone wanted to beat.

Not only Su Wanwan and Mo Weiyi, but even Su Yuntang, Jiang Yi, Huo Qinyu, etc., seniors from both Su and Su Xing families all wore looks of disbelief.

Su Yanyan was in shock.

Messy noises were ringing in her head, turning her face blotchy with red and white patches.

Finally, she regained her composure and cried out loudly, “It was the maids! The maids messed up the dresses! I just realized it too, grandpa and others knew about it.”

Su Xueqin remained silent with a stern face.

Su Wanwan slightly narrowed her eyes, “Which maid?”

“It was Xiaowei!” Su Yanyan pointed in a direction, “Xiaowei messed it up!”

Everyone’s gaze immediately followed her pointing finger.

Su Yuntang swiftly moved few steps, pulling a plainly dressed pretty girl towards himself, “Tell us clearly, what’s going on?”

“I don’t know, I really don’t know anything!” Xiaowei, who was initially excited to watch the chaos, was startled when suddenly she was dragged into the center.

Su Yanyan pointed at her accusingly, “How can you mess things up! How dare you mix up the dresses, did you do it on purpose?”

Scared, Xiaowei’s teardrops fell, “Miss Yanyan, I didn’t do it, you gave me the clothes… ah!”

A sharp slap knocked her face sideways, quickly turning into a fiery red handprint.

“Didn’t you deliver the dress to the Huo family that day?” Su Yanyan demanded angrily.

“But I never opened it…ah!”

“Dare to quibble!” Su Yanyan lifted her hand, smacking another slap onto her face.

“Miss, I really didn’t…”

Su Yanyan was about to raise her hand again…

“Enough!”

Su Wanwan stepped forward, pulling her hand away and giving her a forceful shove, “I’ve been overseas for two full years and I don’t even know who Xiaowei is. Why would she switch out my dress? Moreover, why would she plant a needle in it to stab me?”

Plant a needle?

The crowd gasped in shock.

“Is this a palace drama?”

“This isn’t Su Yanyan, it’s madam Rong!”

“This is a real-life version of ‘The Story of Yanxi Palace’!”

“So terrifying…”

Su Yanyan nearly fell on the ground, barely steady herself when Su Xueqin’s voice rang out angrily.

“Yanyan,” his piercing eyes were icy, voice colder and stern, “how do you explain this?”

“It was Xiaowei! She switched the dresses and also put the needle inside!” Su Yanyan pointed at Xiaowei, refusing to back down.

She had initially calculated it this way.

The day when Su Wanwan hadn’t opened the box with the dress, she would not realize it was swapped, and even if she was pricked by a needle, it would seem like an accident. If this incident came out at today’s wedding, she could entirely push all the blame onto the maid.

But she hadn’t expected that it would escalate so much…

But now in front of everyone, she could only protect herself this way.

“I didn’t… I really didn’t… Master, I didn’t do it, I really didn’t…” Xiaowei’s face was swollen and red, her mouth bleeding, she cried in despair.

Only now she realized why Miss Yanyan had specifically asked her to come and help at the hotel today.

She was a student at Nancheng University from a financially distressed family. She only came to work as a temporary maid in the Su family during summer break, doing daily chores at the Su villa. Normally, she wouldn’t be involved in courtly events like a hotel wedding…

“Scoundrel!” The one speaking was Su Yuntang, “We pay you to work, not to harm others!”

Having said that, he immediately called the driver standing nearby, “Lao Wu, throw her out immediately! Settle her pay and dismiss her! She doesn’t need to work here ever again!”
