Lies Exposed

Gu Dai's eyes narrowed slightly, her voice calm and collected, "I recall nobody mentioned that it was Wei Jia's work that was destroyed. How did you come to know this?"

Indeed, how did Li Ying know?

The crowd's gaze turned towards her, filled with suspicion.

Caught off guard, Li Ying stammered, "I... I was just guessing."

Gu Dai's lips curved into a slight smile, "Your guess is quite accurate. It was the cabinet labeled with Wei Jia's name that was damaged."

Li Ying's eyes lit up for a moment, then quickly clouded with confusion, "What do you mean?"

Gu Dai explained, "Last night, your and Wei Jia's works were mistakenly placed in the wrong cabinets. So, the work that was actually destroyed was yours."

Li Ying's world spun. She hastily opened her cabinet, and upon seeing her damaged embroidery, turned to Gu Dai in disbelief.

Suddenly, a thought struck her.
