Trying to Defend Herself Unreasonably

編集者: Atlas Studios

Wen Xinya thought to herself with a derisive smirk on her face, The owner is really good at pretending. I'm sure she knows that Xia Ruya was planning to set me up during the gala.

The truth is not hard to guess.

Xia Ruya and Lin Yingxin were planning to lay a trap for Wen Xinya during the Heiress' Gala. Xia Ruya managed to spike her drinks and snacks because she was close to the owner of Boya Pavilion. Being well versed in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Xia Ruya knew just the right amount of jimsonweed to use in order to create the effects that she wanted. Hence, Xia Ruya's plan was to let me shine and become the winner of the gala before getting Lin Yingxin to compete with her. By then, the toxic effects of jimsonweed would have already begun spreading and affecting her performance. As a result, she would definitely lose.
