Su Wan's eyes flickered slightly, she stared at the gorgeous lavender dress in front of her, but she was hesitant to reach out her hand.
For some reason, when she saw the dress, her right eyelid kept twitching and she felt subtly uncomfortable.
People say that if the left eye twitches, it means good fortune, while if the right eye twitches, it means disaster. It feels like every time my right eyelid twitches, nothing good will happen.
"Miss Su, what's wrong with you? Do you think this dress doesn't look good?"
Seeing that Su Wan had been silent but had no intention of changing clothes, Xiao Xia couldn't help but frown and gave him some advice kindly.
"Miss Su, there are no other clothes here. You should just use these. After all, wet clothes are uncomfortable to wear and can easily make you sick."
Su Wan glanced at her wet clothes, then turned her face towards the round-faced maid Xiao Xia beside her and nodded slightly.
"Yes, that's what you said. I'll change it right away."
—
Her right eyelid kept twitching, probably because Tia had troubled her too many times tonight.
Hoping that the following banquet would be quieter, Su Wan felt that if he could hold on for another half an hour or an hour, he could go back to the Divine Court with Jiang Xuecheng.
Before she finished her words, Su Wan stretched out her slender fingers, picked up the lavender dress in her hands, and walked quickly towards the dressing room.
Xiao Xia saw the heavy dress in Su Wan's hand and asked kindly.
"Miss Su, can you put it on by yourself? Do you want me to help you?"
Su Wan took a look at the thick purple in her hand, and after making sure that she could reach the zipper of the dress and that the dress itself did not have any complicated design, she shook her head at Xiao Xia.
"No, thank you for your kindness."
Having said that, Su Wan ran to the locker room.
Perhaps because of her conservative personality, Su Wan was not used to having others help her put on her clothes, but Jiang Xuecheng and Lin Feier were exceptions.
…
Su Wan changed into her dress in the dressing room, and after making sure that she was dressed correctly, she walked out.
Tia's height is similar to Su Wan's, so Su Wan has basically no difficulty wearing this dress.
Xiao Xia was stunned when she saw Su Wan in purple.
Su Wan has fair skin and looks good in anything she wears, even a color like purple which is difficult to control.
The most rare thing is that Su Wan has a special temperament. She may not be the most beautiful one in the crowd, but the more you look at her, the more comfortable you will feel. Once your eyes fall on her, it is difficult to look away.
Xiao Xia bit the corner of her lip, and couldn't help but feel a little envious - she had just heard others discussing Su Wan's identity, and it turned out that this so-called Miss Su was just an ordinary maid in the Divine Court.
It is a blessing to be looked at so specially by the Emperor's son. I am just waiting to fly to the tree and become a real phoenix.
Su Wan didn't know what Xiao Xia was thinking. She just thought Xiao Xia was in a daze, so she stretched out her hand and waved in front of Xiao Xia.
"I'm done changing, shall we go down?"
Xiao Xia suddenly came back to her senses. She quickly followed Su Wan's steps, and the two of them walked towards the back garden of the banquet.
…
After taking Su Wan back to the front door of the banquet garden, Xiao Xia left on her own.
Su Wan was about to walk in when she suddenly saw that the people not far away had stopped dancing, and even the sounds of noisy joking had died down.
What's going on here
Su Wan was slightly stunned. She walked inside and found that the young masters and young ladies had automatically stood in two rows, as if they were going to welcome some important person.
Who can make such a big show
Although Jiang Xuecheng caused quite a stir when he came here before, it was still far inferior to the solemnity and silence of this kind of situation.
Su Wan was shocked. Just as she was wondering, she suddenly heard a male voice beside her, as deep as running water, slowly flowing into her heart.
"You're back."
Hearing those four faint words, Su Wan suddenly turned her head and saw that Jiang Xuecheng had come to her side without her knowing when.
"Purple looks good on you, too."
The man's eyes swept over Su Wan's clothes and he uttered a quiet exclamation of admiration.
Su Wan didn't expect Jiang Xuecheng to praise her so directly. She smiled and nodded.
"Thanks."
Su Wan glanced at the people standing in two rows, wanting to ask what was going on with Jiang Xuecheng's current situation, when a female voice as sweet as a nightingale passed by his ears.
"Miss Su, it turns out my skirt fits you very well, but I bought it a size too big, and I was just thinking of asking someone to resize it. If you like it, I'll give it to you."
Su Wan raised her head and saw Tia standing not far away, looking at her with a smile, and Fiennes was standing next to her.
Seeing the undisguised smile on Tiya's face, Su Wan's eyelids suddenly twitched twice.
That weird feeling became stronger and stronger.
Su Wan could feel that Tia was genuinely happy, but if Tia said that giving her the skirt was out of kindness, Su Wan didn't believe it at all.
Haute couture dresses are definitely tailor-made. How could this lavender dress be one size larger
Su Wan was confused, but he suppressed his doubts and took the lead in asking the question he wanted to ask just now.
"Your Highness, why is everyone not dancing anymore? Is the party almost over?"
But which banquet ends so solemnly
Jiang Xuecheng, who was standing next to Su Wan, opened his thin lips slightly and was about to answer Su Wan's question, but was interrupted by Tia who was not far away.
"Miss Su, how is that possible? Don't you know that the High Priest is coming? Today's banquet is finally about to officially begin!"
Su Wan looked at the bright smile on Tiya's face and couldn't help but frowned.
Why did it feel like she had just changed her clothes, and this rich girl seemed like a different person, and she was so kind to answer her questions.
Su Wan pondered what Diya had just said. To be honored as "Sir" by the eldest lady of the Siswell family, she must be of a very high status, right? !
"Priest... Your Excellency?"
Su Wan frowned slightly, and she slowly read out these words with complete confusion.
The man standing next to her saw Su Wan like this and his eyes suddenly became deep.
"Su Wan, don't you know the high priest?"
He said this very quickly, even with a hint of aggression.
Su Wan turned her head to look at Jiang Xuecheng, and when she suddenly met those deep eyes, her heart tightened.
"Should I...know him?"
As she spoke, Su Wan's eyes widened slightly, and her beautiful pupils were exceptionally bright, like that of an ignorant child.
The young prince looked at her, as if trying to tell whether Su Wan was acting.
It was just that Su Wan's expression was too real, and he couldn't see anything strange about it.
For a while, he even suspected that Su Wan was a spy sent by someone. But after spending many days with her, he felt that Su Wan was too stupid.
Or maybe Su Wan’s acting is too good…
Just when the atmosphere was tense, there was suddenly a commotion ahead.
"The high priest has arrived!"
