Chapter 1715: Becoming the Focus

With Lou Lan’s words, almost everyone’s gaze landed on Xiao Ying.

The socialite who had fallen down stood behind Lou Lan, crying as if she had suffered a great grievance. She had completely forgotten about how despicable her previous actions had been.

The bespectacled girl was so frightened that she tugged on Xiao Ying’s hand, wanting to pull her away. However, Xiao Ying knew that she could not leave at this time.

Lou Lan had finally found a chance to vent her anger and take her revenge. How could she let her off so easily?

Lou Lan walked in front of Xiao Ying in her high heels. “Miss Tang, my friend almost died just now. What do you have to say? You’re already a winner in life. Do you still have to go against me like this?”

Xiao Ying wanted to laugh.

Who was going against whom?

If she was not wrong, Lou Lan definitely had something to do with the recording she had received in her mailbox yesterday!

In the face of Lou Lan’s question, Xiao Ying did not panic at all. She smirked and a faint smile appeared on her face. “Miss Lou, you’re holding a marble and you’re saying that I deliberately made your friend fall?”

“Wasn’t it you?”

“Of course not.”

Lou Lan looked at Xiao Ying’s exquisite face and hatred filled her heart. She had to restrain herself from tearing this woman’s face apart.

If she had not appeared, Long Ming would not have broken off the engagement with her, and she would not have become a conversational topic for everyone else.

Her dream of becoming the Princess Consort had been shattered all because of this woman!

Lou Lan looked straight into Xiao Ying’s eyes. “Miss Tang, you said it wasn’t you. Do you dare to take out everything in your bag?”

Xiao Ying furrowed her eyebrows. “What right does Miss Lou have to search other people’s things?”

That socialite who had fallen was furious when she saw Xiao Ying trying to defend herself. “You must be guilty. Lan Lan, let’s call the police!”

Lou Lan ignored that socialite and only looked at Xiao Ying. “Miss Tang, do you not dare to do it?”

Xiao Ying smirked. “It’s not impossible for Miss Lou to search my bag, but both you and I have to take out everything from our bags. After all, Miss Lou, aren’t you a suspect too?”

Lou Lan’s expression changed. “Why am I a suspect? Li Yuan is my friend.”

Xiao Ying smirked, her smile unreadable. “It’s not impossible for you to do this to your friend in order to slander me!”

Xiao Ying’s words made Lou Lan and Li Yuan’s expressions change.

Li Yuan was a brainless person, so she did not hear the sarcasm in Xiao Ying’s words. She turned her doubtful gaze toward Lou Lan.

This was the effect Xiao Ying wanted.

Lou Lan thought highly of herself and would not admit to something she had never done.

“Alright, since you suspect me and I suspect you, let’s pour everything out of our bags now.”

A minute later.

The two of them had emptied their bags onto the carpet.

Xiao Ying spread her items out on the ground. There were no marbles.

Lou Lan frowned and rummaged through her own belongings. To her surprise, she found a marble of a different color beside her makeup pouch.

Lou Lan’s expression changed immediately.

“Why is there such a thing in my bag?”

Li Yuan, who was standing behind Lou Lan, covered her mouth in disbelief when she saw the marble in Lou Lan’s bag.

Had that vixen been right?

Lou Lan had deliberately tricked her for personal grudges?

Thinking of the pain of falling to the ground and her limbs almost falling apart, Li Yuan’s gaze revealed a trace of unhappiness.

“Lan, I really treated you as a friend. How could you treat me like this?” Li Yuan felt wronged.

Seeing that Li Yuan was wavering because of Xiao Ying, Lou Lan was so angry that her chest heaved slightly.

From the looks of it, Xiao Ying was not just looks without any brains. She was smart and calculating.

Lou Lan ignored Li Yuan. She stood up and walked up to Xiao Ying. “I don’t know when you put the marbles in my bag, but Miss Tang, you’ve already snatched my fiancé away. Now, you even want to frame me and ruin my relationship with my friend. How much more do you want to embarrass me?”

“Do you know how I survived the past few days? I love Long Ming so much, but because of you, we became strangers… Forget it. All the grievances and pain have passed. I won’t mention them anymore. But this time, you hurt my friend and framed me. Do you think I’m easy to bully?”

Tears filled Lou Lan’s eyes and her long eyelashes fluttered nonstop. She looked extremely aggrieved.

“Miss Tang, I won’t tolerate it anymore. You stole my lover from me. I won’t let you hurt my friend again…” Lou Lan seemed to have mustered her courage and raised her hand to slap Xiao Ying.

Xiao Ying looked at Lou Lan and did not stop her. However, when Lou Lan’s finger was about to land on her face, Xiao Ying tilted her head.

Lou Lan missed and lost her balance. She stumbled and fell to the ground.

Lou Lan’s forehead hit the wall and her skin was grazed. Blood immediately gushed out.

It had only been a few seconds since Lou Lan had tried to hit Xiao Ying to her falling. No one was clear of what had just happened.

The skin on Lou Lan’s forehead was grazed and fresh blood flowed down to her fair face. It was an extremely scary sight.

Seeing that Lou Lan was injured, Li Yuan started to believe that Lou Lan was innocent again. She pointed a trembling finger at Xiao Ying’s nose. “Vixen, b*tch, you almost made me fall to my death. Now, you’re even attacking Lan Lan. You’re not even the Princess Consort yet but you’re already so arrogant!”

Seeing that Lou Lan was injured, Lou Lan’s bodyguards immediately went forward to deal with Xiao Ying. Lou Lan said weakly, “She didn’t do it on purpose. Don’t hurt her.”

Li Yuan and the other socialites looked at Lou Lan and could not help but feel indignant for her. “Lan Lan, you’re too kind. She landed you in this state and yet, you’re still helping her?”

Lou Lan shook her head weakly. “I don’t want to care about this anymore. Help me to the hospital!”

Li Yuan and several socialites helped Lou Lan back into the elevator. Before the elevator door closed, Lou Lan looked at Xiao Ying, a chilling smile on her lips.

…

That afternoon.

A silent surveillance video appeared on the internet.

The video showed Xiao Ying, Lou Lan and her party. First, it was the scene of Li Yuan falling to the ground, then Lou Lan confronting Xiao Ying before falling to the ground. Her forehead was injured but she did not let the bodyguards hurt Xiao Ying. She appeared extremely aggrieved.

Someone had placed the photos of Long Ming and Xiao Ying behind the video and analyzed their situation in detail.

The netizens loved to make up stories from photos. Hence, the drama of the first mistress humiliating and taking revenge on the first wife of the socialite appeared.
