Chapter 361: Chapter 361: Kids Make Choices, Adults Want It All!

"Everyone knows that Suqing’s forte is Double-sided Embroidery," Miss Su began, "and she has a habit, which is to embroider a willow leaf on the reverse side where the needle drops."

The reason behind it was rather complex, and she found it inconvenient to explain in detail.

But this secret was personally revealed to her by Liu Suqing, and she had been the only one told.

Having said that, Tong Yi walked over to Jiang Li.

"Miss Jiang, may I take a look?" she asked.

Jiang Li nodded and then took a seat in the chair behind her.

Out of respect for etiquette, Tong Yi squatted down, lifting only a corner of Jiang Li’s skirt lightly.

Nevertheless, the surrounding crowd couldn’t help but gasp. freeweɓnøvel.com

— Because the reverse side of the embroidery turned out to be a landscape painting!

Even if it hadn’t been crafted by Master Liu, it was still impressive enough to astonish onlookers!

Seeing this, Jin Siyue’s expression changed.

It was actually Double-sided Embroidery, and such a complex pattern at that—could this skirt really be Liu Suqing’s work?

No, how could that be possible?

Why would Liu Suqing embroider a formal dress for someone who was just a commoner?

And this Tong Yi, daring to go against his wishes like that!

He would need to seriously reconsider the investment for Du Sang!

In fact, the moment Tong Yi saw the back of the skirt, she had a hunch.

Throughout the entirety of Hua Country, there was nobody else who could make Double-sided Embroidery so perfect.

When she spotted a familiar willow leaf at the bottom of the landscape painting, her excitement grew even further.

"There really is one, this is indeed Suqing’s work!"

As the camera zoomed in, the audience in the live broadcast also saw that willow leaf.

"Good heavens, it’s hidden so discreetly, I wouldn’t believe it if you said it wasn’t Master Liu’s work."

"Chairman Tong wouldn’t be defending Jiang Li for no reason, right? After all, Younger President Jin is still here; the skirt must be authentic."

"Mother of God, what’s the story behind Jiang Li’s mother, to actually be able to commission Master Liu? I’m going to check out if their studio has other works."

"This is too exciting, it’s the first time I’ve seen Younger President Jin get slapped in the face, I’m so thrilled I forgot to go to the bathroom!"

The popularity in the live broadcast continued to soar, and Jiang Li’s skirt shot to the number one spot on the trending searches due to Liu Suqing in an instant.

That evening, Lin Manru, who was still busy in the studio, was on the verge of her phone exploding with calls.

The scene was filled with voices of surprise.

Nobody had expected the dress worn by Miss Jiang to have such an origin.

Ye Chu’s expression turned both green and pale with excitement.

Jiang Li remained seated without standing up, instead crossing her legs and revealing the surface of her high heels.

"Miss Ye, fulfill your promise," she said.

Finishing her sentence, she glanced meaningfully at Jin Siyue.

His face turned so dark it seemed as if water might drip from it.

With mortification, Ye Chu clenched her fists.

"You’re going too far, Jiang Li!" she exclaimed.

Jiang Li laughed, "Am I the one going too far? Was it not Miss Ye who first pledged her promise? First you wrongfully accused me, then you tormented me like this. All I’m asking Miss Ye is to clean a shoe; I’m already being gracious."

"That’s right," Wen Jiaojiao chimed in with her arms crossed, "I recorded what you just said. Don’t try to get out of it now, Ye Chu. You’re a public figure after all, and now all eyes are on you. Are you sure you want to go back on your word?"

The wealthy lady who had sought Jiang Li for fortune-telling earlier also stepped forward to support her argument, and in a moment, everyone was condemning Ye Chu.

After all, you reap what you sow; why should this little star, so full of false bravado, be spared?

With no way out and under pressure, Ye Chu had no choice but to pale-facedly march forward, steeling herself for what was to come.

She was about to bend down to wipe Jiang Li’s shoes with a handkerchief when he suddenly pulled his foot away, causing her to lose her balance and fall to her knees right in front of him.

Ye Chu angrily looked up, only to meet Jiang Li’s smiling eyes.

"Miss Ye, you said you would kneel down to wipe my shoes, don’t think about cutting corners."

Ye Chu: !!!!

Jiang Li was definitely doing this on purpose, right?!

But, with everyone watching, she had no choice but to swallow her pride.

After finally wiping down Jiang Li’s shoes thoroughly with the handkerchief, Ye Chu made a move to stand up.

Then Jiang Li put his other foot forward.

"There’s still one more."

Jiang Yan also snorted coldly, "Exactly, if you’re going to do a job, do it well. Since you lost the bet, you should bear the consequences."

Ye Chu clenched her fists.

Su Yinwan, feeling somewhat sympathetic, approached, "Jiang Li, let’s just forget it, we’re all friends..."

Jiang Li looked up with a smile at her, "Would Miss Su like to wipe the other shoe for Miss Ye? After all, we’re all friends."

"I..." Su Yinwan went pale and fell silent, quietly retreating.

How could Jiang Li be so detestable, not giving any face at all?!

[Go Sister Li, so impressive and domineering!]

[Wenwen is so kind-hearted, even speaking up for Ye Chu, I’m moved to tears.]

[...I’m speechless, am I the only one who thinks Su Yinwan’s saintly aura is too much?]

Seeing how adamant Jiang Li’s attitude was, Ye Chu could only begrudgingly wipe his other shoe before quickly standing up from the ground.

"Are we good now?"

"Yes." Jiang Li nodded and then turned to Qi Tianyu, "Did you get it all on video?"

Qi Tianyu patted his chest confidently, "Got it all."

"Good, send it to my Weibo later."

Ye Chu was dumbstruck.

"What do you mean, Jiang Li?!"

Jiang Li smiled slightly, "Miss Ye, you wronged me without cause and delayed everyone’s time, you ought to pay some sort of price, right? Don’t worry, there’s nothing much, just a video of you wiping my shoes."

"Jiang! Li!" Ye Chu was so angry she stamped her foot, but when she turned around, she found everyone looking at her with disdain.

Realizing she had made a fool of herself, Ye Chu quickly covered her face and ran away.

She couldn’t stay at this banquet for another second!

As Ye Chu left, Jiang Li’s gaze shifted subtly to Jin Siyue.

Jin Siyue narrowed his dark eyes.

This Jiang Li really had some nerve to be so unafraid of him.

Why?

"Miss Jiang, rest assured, if I made a promise, I will keep it," Jin Siyue said indifferently, "Just tell me which lot you’re interested in."

After all, this money was just a drop in the bucket for him.

Yet, Jiang Li smiled.

"Why don’t you just give me all the auction items from the first half, Young Master Jin? Since this money is just pocket change to you."

Jin Siyue: ?

[Holy crap, Sister Li’s gone mad?!]

[Hahahaha, I’ve never seen Jin Siyue’s face look so ugly; it’s like he’s eaten shit.]

[Sister Li is indeed Sister Li, no nonsense with anyone.]

[Sister Li: Only kids make choices, I’m an adult, I want everything!]
