This scene happened so suddenly that everyone was caught off guard, even Wei Yundai herself was stunned, left only with the instinct to shout.

When people are pushed down, they instinctively shout, and in doing so, the previously dignified and elegant image is completely ruined.

The people who praised Wei Yundai just now are now feeling very awkward.

Long Yue rolled over a couple of times, then quickly went to help Wei Yundai up, and said with a friendly smile, "Sister, are you all right? I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to! Somehow my legs just wouldn’t listen!"

Wei Yundai, after being hit and rolled over by Long Yue, had her hairpins and clothes in disarray, and crucially, she lost face in front of everyone, and was extremely angry.

Seeing Long Yue come over to support her, Wei Yundai pushed her away abruptly and said angrily, "Go away, you country bumpkin girl, don’t touch me with those filthy hands!"

She said this breathlessly, suddenly realizing something was wrong, and when she looked up, she saw the disappointed eyes of Old Madam Wei and others.

Old Madam Wei just looked at her and said lightly, "Dai’er, is that how you speak to your sister?"

How am I supposed to talk to her?

Wei Yundai shouted in her heart, but she could also see the old lady’s discontent, so she hurriedly tried to apologize.

But before she could speak, Long Yue said, "Grandmother, it doesn’t matter, sister is still young, please don’t blame her."

Sitting at the top, Mrs. Gao’s eyes turned cold, how could she not hear the meaning in Long Yue’s words? She was implying that her Dai’er was not sensible!

Her eyes shifted slightly, and she quickly said, "Dai’er is indeed still young, a bit hasty, please forgive her, Dai’er, your sister has been kneeling for so long, her legs are weak, won’t you quickly give her some support?"

This was to help Wei Yundai save face while also making a jab at Long Yue for kneeling too long. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

How could Long Yue not see through Mrs. Wei’s intentions? She just responded with a smile.

Wei Yundai harbored resentment towards Long Yue in her heart, but she dared not show it on her face, she responded softly, walked over to Long Yue and pretended to support her, but in reality, her sharp nails fiercely poked at her waist.

Long Yue’s waist was thin, and the flesh there was delicate, puncturing easily, and crucially, Long Yue couldn’t make a sound, or else explain the injury in front of everyone?

After all, as the eldest lady of the Wei Mansion, it would be highly inappropriate to loosen her clothes in front of so many people.

So, Wei Yundai thought that Long Yue would have to swallow this insult quietly; if she caused a scene, she would lose face, no matter what, she would win.

However, she seemed to have underestimated Long Yue.

Long Yue knew she would be dealt with harshly? She allowed her sharp nails to pierce her waist, but just when she pulled back, Long Yue clasped her wrist, using force with her index, middle, and thumb as if crushing a chopstick, squeezing hard.

"Ah!"

Wei Yundai screamed again, this time even more piercing and tragic than before, so much so that the people nearby felt like their ears were going deaf.

Old Madam Wei watched her coldly, her impression of this granddaughter was indeed very poor today, how could she repeatedly be so disrespectful?

What is a young lady doing shouting like that?

Does she have no sense of decorum at all?

Old Madam Wei herself was a well-educated and reasonable woman, so she held the same expectations for the younger generation, not allowing any inappropriate behavior.

Especially those she favored, she expected them to walk in the direction she set, otherwise, she would be very displeased.

Old Madam had high hopes for Wei Yundai, so seeing her so ungraceful really made her very disappointed.

Wei Yundai was hurting so much from Long Yue’s grip that she couldn’t even pay attention to Old Madam’s expression, she covered her wrist and pointed at Long Yue, saying, "You plotted against me!"

Long Yue blinked with an aggrieved look, "Sister, what are you talking about? How did I plot against you?"

As she spoke, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, appearing extremely wronged.

"You... you dared to pinch me!"

Wei Yundai raised her hand and pointed at Long Yue shouting.

Long Yue looked innocent, "Sister, I didn’t pinch you!"

"Yes, you did, you did!"

Wei Yundai was so angry she couldn’t speak, in this world how could there be someone so shameless? Clearly did it but claims she didn’t, the key is she’s pretending to be pitiful and innocent!

Her appearance couldn’t be more infuriating!

"Oh, Miss, why is your hand bleeding?"

Just then, a sharp-eyed maid suddenly exclaimed, and her shout immediately drew everyone’s attention, everyone looked at Wei Yundai’s finger.

Sure enough, there was a hint of red on the nails, it was blood!

"Miss is injured, tell us, did you hurt her?"

This maid, being one of Mrs. Gao’s people, immediately stepped in to accuse Long Yue, helping Wei Yundai out of the embarrassing situation.

Long Yue furrowed her brows slightly, looking helplessly at the old lady, "Grandmother, I didn’t, I really didn’t!"

As she spoke, she raised her hand to wipe her eyes and turned around.

Old Madam’s eyesight wasn’t great, but she wasn’t blind, she saw a red spot on Long Yue’s waist, it wasn’t a flower, it was blood!

Long Yue was wearing a white dress with peach blossom prints, but there were no printed blossoms on the waist, so that bit of red was very conspicuous.

"Girl, what’s with your waist?"

The old lady wouldn’t ask if she hadn’t seen, but now that she did, she had to ask.

Long Yue bit her red lip, saying nothing.

If she cried out, the old lady would think she was indecorous and making a fuss, but this restrained appearance only piqued Old Madam’s curiosity.

"Take her inside and see what’s wrong with her waist?"

Old Madam instructed a trusted mammy beside her, who immediately took two others to take Long Yue inside.

Upon seeing this, Mrs. Wei’s heart sank, feeling something was wrong, it was about to get bad!

She looked at Wei Yundai with displeasure, as if asking: What’s going on?

Wei Yundai, who had been fierce earlier, suddenly softened and even dared not look her mother in the eye.

How intelligent was Mrs. Wei? She immediately understood that Wei Yundai had made a move on Long Yue.

She was so angry she couldn’t speak.

This silly girl, really stupid, if you want to be underhanded, couldn’t you find a place without people? Why do it in such a setting?

The key is you even failed, that girl wasn’t inappropriate, but you lost decorum first.

Mrs. Wei was really infuriated!

But the situation was as it was, she could only glower helplessly.

After a short while, the mammy brought Long Yue out, and everyone’s gaze once again fell on Long Yue.

"Old Madam, the eldest young lady..." The mammy spoke with tact, not saying it openly but leaning close to the old lady, whispering, "The eldest young lady’s waist was pierced by a nail!"

She didn’t say who did it, but it didn’t need to be said, the answer was obvious.

Instantly, Old Madam looked at Wei Yundai, her eyes filled with disappointment.
