After Xiaolin ran out of the room, her heart beat faster and faster, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.
Thinking about the scene that Su Wan and Xiao Xia had just seen, in addition to nervousness, there was also a hint of guilt.
Thinking of Su Wan's clear eyes, the guilt in her heart grew stronger and stronger, and she even had the urge to run back and tell Su Wan not to wear that dress.
However, it was simply impulse, and she would never run back to expose her crime.
Xiaolin slapped her head heavily, and her expression couldn't help but feel a little lost.
I just hope that Su Wan only gets slightly injured and nothing serious happens.
She specifically picked out some brand new pins that had never been used. They shouldn't cause tetanus or something like that, right
Just when Xiaolin was feeling uneasy, she suddenly saw a pretty figure standing at the stairs.
It was actually Tia, the eldest daughter of the Siswell family.
Xiaolin was panicking. When she saw Tia, her throat became even tighter and her body couldn't help but tremble.
Tia glanced at Xiaolin's slightly trembling body and immediately frowned, with a hint of anger in her expression.
"Isn't it just asking you to get a few pins? Why are you so scared? Don't tell me you didn't succeed?!"
What a useless thing!
Such a simple thing can't be done well.
Tia was already very angry today, and now she became even more angry when she saw Xiaolin's cowardly look with her head lowered.
Afraid that her master might misunderstand her, Xiaolin quickly shook her head.
"No miss, I'm all set, I'm just a little scared..."
Before Xiaolin could finish her words, she saw her master waving his hand impatiently.
"Why, are you afraid that vixen will find out? Don't worry, what if she finds out? Humph..."
When the maid Xiaolin heard this, she was still scared.
Her lips trembled slightly, and she was about to say something else, but when she saw the domineering look of her master, she swallowed all the words back.
Forget it, the young lady won’t listen to anyone except Master Fiennes…
In a trance, Xiaolin thought of the girl she had just met, especially her eyes as clear as water, which she would never forget.
I hope, I hope nothing happens to her.
Tia didn't notice the expression of her maid at all. She raised her head proudly with a look of deep arrogance.
—Her arrogance comes from her confidence.
who is she
Tia, the eldest daughter of the Siswell family!
She was born into a wealthy family and had enjoyed endless honors since childhood. How could she be trampled under the feet of a woman like that!
As for that vixen named Su Wan, she is just a lowly commoner woman. Even if Your Highness is angry, what can he do? !
Are they really going to make things difficult for such a lowly woman, to the point of falling out with the Siswell family? !
Don't be fooled by her young age, she actually knows how to act in moderation.
It's just a few pins. It's impossible for them to take the woman's life. Besides, what if they are exposed
She bit the pins that were used to hold the dress in place, saying that the dress didn't fit and she didn't want to go back for adjustment, so couldn't she just leave it like this for now
At worst, they could push Xiaolin out and make her a scapegoat, saying that Xiaolin wanted to stab herself but accidentally hurt Su Wan.
Tia raised her chin arrogantly, as if she saw Su Wan's shoulder and neck oozing with blood.
That woman is so proud that she will make Su Wan suffer no matter what.
Moreover, she had made all the necessary preparations for this matter and even found a way out.
She originally thought that the high priest would not be willing to attend such an occasion, but unexpectedly, when she asked him a few days ago, the high priest actually agreed, but said that he would arrive later.
It just so happens that the high priest can see how the current prince has been bewitched by a commoner girl.
It would be better to expel such a shameless woman from the Divine Court as soon as possible.
Moreover, a few days ago, she vaguely mentioned the marriage problem of the emperor's son. Although the high priest did not say that he was suitable, it was obvious that he had no idea about other noble ladies from aristocratic families.
Tia was originally worried that compared to other ladies from noble families, she had a proud temper and a bad personality, and would be disliked by the high priest.
But now there is a lowly woman like Su Wan in comparison, the high priest will definitely see her, right? !
Tiya is talented, beautiful, and has a first-rate family background. She can't be worse than a commoner girl!
His Highness's foundation was not stable, so he needed to find a lady like her to help him. What a pity that he actually fell in love with such a humble woman...
As Diya was thinking, a scene of the closeness between the Emperor's son and Su Wan suddenly emerged in her mind. She bit the corner of her lip, and a sharp light appeared in her amber eyes.
She has figured it out now!
Originally, all her attention was on the prince, but because there was no other woman around him, she hoped that he would look at her more.
As for now…
As long as you can win the favor of the high priest, as for your highness's marriage, well, with the high priest in charge, I don't believe your highness can cause any trouble.
After all, in the Divine Court, although the high priest is only a nominal position, the high priest who is the former emperor's son is the real backbone of the Divine Court.
As for that woman, if she is sensible in the future, it would be nice to give her to her brother.
Of course, Su Wan could only be Fiennes's low-class mistress. Tia would never let her brother marry a woman with no background.
Her brother will inherit the position of head of the Siswell family in the future, and he absolutely cannot be dragged down by Su Wan's background.
If that woman doesn't know her place, don't blame her for being ruthless...
Thinking about her plan, Tia couldn't help but smile.
Her facial features were extremely good, and her smile was indescribably dazzling. The dim light shining on her face gave off a creepy feeling when you looked closely.
The maid Xiaolin was standing beside her. When she saw the smile on Tia's face, she suddenly felt creepy for some reason.
…
Seeing Xiaolin running out in such a panic, Su Wan and the maid Xiaoxia stood at the door and looked at each other.
Su Wan's right eyelid twitched a few times, and she couldn't help but feel a bad feeling in her heart.
Although the flustered figure was no longer visible in the corridor, Su Wan felt heavy in his heart.
She looked at Xiao Xia and asked softly.
"Why did Xiaolin panic when she saw us?"
Xiao Xia shook her head in confusion.
"I don't know. Maybe she accidentally soiled so many dresses and is afraid of being punished by the young lady?"
Xiao Xia said, her eyes sweeping over Su Wan's stained dress.
She immediately pointed to the lavender dress not far away and made a suggestion to Su Wan with a smile.
"Miss Su, your clothes must be uncomfortable. Change into this one."
