Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack-Chapter 721 - 701: Chu Ting’s Coming of Age Ceremony (Part Three)

But then she thought of her own mother and sighed softly. Her mother’s existence was not acknowledged by her first husband’s family. Although her grandparents really liked her and Luo Shufan, when it came to An Zilan, they could only offer apologies.

The current family was even worse. Lin Xu’s mother could plot against one son to harm another, even to the extent of not hesitating to ruin a child’s name. It was as if the child wasn’t her own flesh and blood.

It’s true what they say, comparing people can be lethal, and comparing goods can make you want to discard them.

Thinking that it would be better to find someone without such worries for a mother-in-law, but not everyone is like that, just like her own granny.

"Qianqian..." Chang Xi suddenly called out.

"Ah..." Luo Qianqian had not recovered when she suddenly got bumped onto the ground, and orange juice flowed down her shoulder to her clothes. Instantly, her snow-white dress was soaked and stained with another color. She slightly frowned, had not yet said anything, looked around, and immediately stood up, a hint of embarrassment in her smile.

Then she heard a voice by her ear, "I’m sorry, miss, I didn’t see you." Turning her head, she saw a waiter in a white shirt.

Luo Qianqian was startled. Did he not see her? Was he implying she was too short? Why did it feel like this waiter was picking a fight? Could she ask to see the surveillance footage to check if this was done on purpose?

But remembering the Luo family was behind her, Luo Qianqian sighed silently in her heart, shook her head gently, and displayed a proper smile, "No worries, could you please tell me where the bathroom is?"

"Please follow me this way," the waiter immediately stood by Luo Qianqian’s side and guided her.

Just as Luo Qianqian was about to follow the waiter to the bathroom, she was stopped by a lotus root-like slender and fair arm. Luo Qianqian looked up to see Chu Ting, and her heart began to drum with unease, only to hear Chu Ting’s clear and melodious voice, "This is all because of our Chu family’s lack of hospitality. Please follow me, miss, and change into a new outfit?"

Seeing the mockingly polite smile on Chu Ting’s face, Luo Qianqian had already guessed that what had happened was intentional, but she was helpless without any evidence.

It was clear there was some scheming involved, and she was unsure of how to proceed, and before she could speak, she heard a voice, "Jin Yuee, this is a spare formal dress. Follow Miss Chu to change, and I will wait for you downstairs." It was Jimo Cheng.

She had just wondered why Jimo Cheng hadn’t appeared when the incident occurred, as typically, he should have shown up immediately. Seeing the box in Jimo Cheng’s hands, Luo Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief. Regardless, this could prevent some schemes, right?

Just as she was about to follow Chu Ting upstairs, she heard another sharp scream from the other side, "Ah..."

Looking up, she saw another lady from a family, also a victim of the waiter who had stained her dress. Luo Qianqian watched as Chang Xi slowly withdrew her foot next to the waiter and smiled slightly. This way, Chang Xi also nicely avoided the awkwardness of being alone with Chu Ting.

"Miss, please follow me as well," Chu Ting’s facial expression cracked slightly, while Luo Qianqian smiled secretly, thinking it serves you right for your plotting.

The lady was wearing an apricot-colored dress, and the spilt orange juice was highly conspicuous on it. She followed with a sour expression, "What bad luck, it’s so embarrassing."

A flicker of guilt passed through Luo Qianqian’s eyes; if it had not been for her, that lady might not have been targeted by Chang Xi.

Upon reaching the room, Luo Qianqian naturally took the dress and went into the bathroom, leaving Chu Ting with the other lady, but the bathroom door wasn’t completely shut, allowing her to hear the conversation inside the room.

"Miss Chu, I’m really sorry," said the lady.

"It’s okay, these are all my dresses, but... it seems like you can’t fit into them."

"It’s okay, I’ll try," said the lady again.

"Whatever."

Then there was no sound outside, and Luo Qianqian quickly dried the juice on her body with a tissue, then dabbed it with water and carefully wiped it, fearing that any additives in the juice might make her uncomfortable.

In response, Chu Ting said, "You really think too much. Even if there were a drug that could cause trouble upon skin contact, using it in this setting would undoubtedly make the Chu Family the prime suspect. No one would mess around at someone else’s party, as the possible consequences are unknown and hence even more terrifying."

She changed into the moon-white form-fitting spaghetti strap gown that Jimo Cheng had brought, which matched the Tang suit Jimo Cheng was currently wearing.

After stuffing the soiled dress into a box, she walked out of the restroom calmly, only to see the lady awkwardly trying to stuff herself into the dress, which clearly didn’t fit.

The waist part was obviously Chu Ting’s waist size, which was extremely slender. This lady clearly didn’t have the perfect figure to fit into it.

"I really can’t fit into it, what should I do?" the lady asked, looking hopefully at Chu Ting, who held her chin in a thoughtful pose.

Xia Nianqiao quickly surveyed the dresses hanging all around the room, a trace of realization crossing her face; they were all form-fitting, all tube dresses. With such specifications, if the figure didn’t match, one simply couldn’t wear them. She then noticed the only odd one out, a red dress hidden in a corner that clearly wasn’t form-fitting.

Luo Qianqian looked at the dress and knew, that was the one.

Seeing Luo Qianqian’s expression, Chu Ting curved her lips, "Right, I do have another dress, but..."

"But what?" Immediately responding was the lady in her underwear, Luo Qianqian was not interested in continuing such a conversation.

"But that dress might be a bit sexy, so I’ve never worn it," Chu Ting explained.

Sexy? Hearing this word, the lady’s eyes lit up, perhaps she could snag a wealthy husband because of it? She quickly said, "It’s okay, my figure is quite good," saying this proudly thrusting out her ample chest.

Luo Qianqian silently lowered her head, seemingly the smallest one here? But she was also the youngest, okay?

"But it feels a bit too revealing." In Luo Qianqian’s gaze, Chu Ting pulled out the red dress, and the next second Luo Qianqian almost laughed out loud. How blatant was this setup? 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

A halter style, with large areas exposed both front and back, and featuring a high slit, was this a walk on a nightclub runway?

The lady’s eyes sparkled, nodding repeatedly, "This one it is!" She had always liked red, but the choice of dress was decided by her family, not too conspicuous, and the design chosen was elegant and dignified, after all, she couldn’t overshadow today’s main character.

Had anyone considered that today’s main character wasn’t competing with clothes? But with her own attributes, stunning appearance, and slender figure, she was more than enough to stand above all.
