"You guys are shameless! Our things were perfectly fine. If you hadn't bumped into them, would they have broken?"

The waiter was so angry at Su Wanshi's words that his face turned red.

They had clearly placed the bracelet in a safe location. Somehow, they yelled and bumped into the box on the table, causing the bracelet to fall and break.

"We...we bumped into the table because we found bugs in your shop and got scared, so we bumped into them in our panic. It's all your fault. Even the young ladies of the Xiao Prince's Mansion aren't arguing with you, and you still have the nerve to keep bothering us!"

Su Wanshi said somewhat guiltily.

Actually, the reason that bracelet was broken was because of myself.

Since arguing with the King of Chu, he has not come to see me.

She thought about it for a long time and concluded that the King of Chu had been seduced by that vixen in the mansion, and that she herself had been having a terrible time recently, which had affected her overall condition and made her neglect her appearance.

Therefore, she thought of going out to buy some jewelry to dress herself up, and then going to the King of Chu to curry favor.

Unexpectedly, she was so overwhelmed by the jewelry she saw at the shop that she accidentally knocked a jade hairpin to the ground and broke it when she turned around without paying attention.

Upon closer inspection, she realized the jade hairpin cost twenty taels of silver. The Su family was already poor, and she simply couldn't afford to pay for it.

In her anxiety, she saw a woman standing beside her dressed in gorgeous and luxurious clothes, who looked quite wealthy.

So she came up with a plan.

Suddenly, he shouted, "Ah! There's a bug! There's a bug under the table!"

The woman next to her was also startled when she heard this, and Su Wanshi took the opportunity to bump into the woman's maid, who then bumped into the woman.

In a fit of fear, the woman knocked over all the jewelry on the table.

Some gold hairpins were fine, but a box of jade bracelets and hairpins fell to the ground and broke.

"That's right, if you keep bothering us and preventing us from leaving, I won't be so polite!"

Chu Yun felt very pleased to hear Su Wanshi speak up for him, and proudly raised his chin.

Indeed, she did break it herself, but wasn't it because she heard there were bugs in their shop that she panicked and bumped into it?

She just looked at them too; each jade bracelet costs twenty or thirty taels, and there are at least ten or so in a box. If she has to pay compensation, she'll have to pay several hundred taels of silver!

Although Chu Yan is treating me well, several hundred taels is still a large sum for me.

"Oh, young lady, how do you intend to be impolite?"

At this moment, Su Liluo could no longer stand Chu Yun's bullying behavior.

If she didn't show up soon, Chu Yun would probably smash up her shop.

After all, Chu Yun had done similar things before in her previous life, and in the end, King Xiao even helped her clean up the mess.

Upon hearing the sound, Chu Yun looked over and immediately spotted Su Liluo walking out of the crowd, along with Chu Yan behind her.

Chu Yun was shocked and ran straight towards Chu Yan.

"Sister, what brings you here?"

She still looked somewhat flustered.

I wonder if Chu Yan saw my bad side just now.

Chu Yan glanced at Chu Yun with a complicated expression and said, "Yun'er, if you break someone else's things, you should naturally pay for them. What exactly happened?"

"I......"

Chu Yun felt awkward.

At this moment, Su Wanshi also saw Su Liluo.

"See you... See you---"

Because of the punishments Su Liluo had given her several times before, Su Wanshi panicked when she saw Su Liluo and instinctively went to greet her.

But before she could finish speaking, Su Liluo interrupted her.

"No need, you should just pay back the money first!"

"Pay me money? But... I didn't break this."

Su Wanshi said awkwardly, but her hands were clenched tightly in her sleeves, worried that Su Liluo was going to cause trouble.

Chu Yun then noticed Su Liluo and looked at her, saying, "Miss, it's all the shop's fault for being unclean. The bugs scared us, which is why the jewelry broke. It's the shop owner's responsibility, so how can you ask us to pay for it right away?"

She couldn't be so assertive with Chu Yan, but she wasn't afraid of Su Liluo.

Chu Yan tugged at Chu Yun and gently scolded, "Yun'er, speak properly."

"elder sister....."

Chu Yun cried out in resentment.

Su Liluo went upstairs and called out her shop assistant to find out what had happened.

Then, she sneered, "There are bugs in our shop?"

Her shop is filled with her own homemade incense, so there isn't a single insect, not even a mosquito.

Su Liluo immediately guessed that there was something fishy going on.

Su Wanshi felt guilty under Su Liluo's sharp gaze, and turned her head away, her palms sweating.

"Luo'er, is this your shop?"

At this moment, Chu Yan, who was standing to the side, grasped the key information in Su Liluo's words.

If this shop belongs to Su Liluo, then she will definitely trust Luo'er, and if her things are damaged, she will definitely have to compensate her.

"Yes, Yan'er, I managed this shop myself. There's my special incense in the shop, so there's absolutely no way there would be any bugs."

Su Liluo explained it to Chu Yan in detail.

Chu Yan and Su Liluo grew up together and Chu Yan knew that Su Liluo was a very clean person, so she naturally trusted her.

So, she glanced at Chu Yun.

She gently scolded, "Yoona, apologize right now. I'll compensate you for the shop's losses. Don't be so arrogant in public next time!"
