Yun Nan and Fang Xi felt their gazes and stopped not far away, looking at each other.
"You saw what happened. I didn't provoke her," Fang Xi whispered to Yun Nan.
Yun Nan sighed, "I don't want to argue with her because I fear my intelligence will deteriorate if I do so for too long, too many times."
"How dare you waltz around and show off while wearing knockoffs? You're truly shameless," Someone pursed his lips and said contemptuously. A group of people had quietly surrounded the girls.
"Yun Liu, you're a classy girl. You have to teach these country bumpkins a lesson. Otherwise, it's not her face she would be losing, but yours!"
"Yun Liu, you're really too kind. How could you bear to give away such a precious invitation? And to such a seedy individual at that! You might as well give it to your manager if you ask me. Having Miss Ding here would be much better than some people, in my opinion."
"That's right! Yun Liu, I don't want to criticize you, but aren't you lowering our status? This garden party is only for people with status. The others won't agree with your actions!"
Yun Liu looked embarrassed. "Guys, don't talk about my sister like that. She didn't do it on purpose. She doesn't understand these things, so please forgive her."
Hearing this, the group looked at Yun Nan and Fang Xi with even more contempt.
Yun Liu hurriedly stepped forward and said to Yun Nan, "Sis, you… you should quickly go and change out of that dress. What should we do? I wonder if there's a clothing store nearby. Why don't I ask Miss Ding to bring a gown here right now? You can't wear this dress here. You—you'll be a joke!" Yun Liu appeared to be concerned as she said that.
Yun Nan looked at Fang Xi in bewilderment. 'Fang Xi was the one who chose the dress. Is there a problem with it?'
Fang Xi stepped aside and looked at Yun Nan. She raised her voice slightly and said to Yun Liu as well as the others, "What's wrong with this outfit? Doesn't it look good? It looks great! So what's the problem?"
She circled Yun Nan. "It's not dirty," she concluded. "Why must she change out of it?"
The people behind Yun Liu laughed softly and looked at them as if they were clowns.
Yun Liu stomped her feet and berated, "Why are you guys still laughing? Hurry up, and help me sort this out! She's my sister! I can't let her make a fool of herself."
Yun Liu was so anxious that her eyes reddened. Someone pulled her away and hissed, "Yun Liu! You're too kindhearted! Why are you being so circuitous with country bumpkins like them? If you don't state things clearly, they won't understand at all!"
The laughter became even more wanton at the remark.
Yun Nan somewhat understood why they were looking down on her, but she wasn't concerned; Fang Xi wouldn't make any mistakes when it came to doing things.
"What's going on?" Fang Xi was puzzled. "Why are you speaking in riddles?"
"Yun Nan, the dress you're wearing is a fake. It's a high-quality imitation!" Yun Liu 'kindly' explained. "Everyone's staring at you. If the brand finds out, they'll sue you!"
Yun Nan lowered her head and glanced at her dress.
"I told you a country bumpkin like her doesn't know these things! She still doesn't know that she was wearing a fake!"
"How embarrassing!"
"Yun Liu is really unlucky to have a sister like her!"
Yun Liu lowered her head in shame, mortified and at a loss.
More and more people gathered around them. News of the incident spread through word of mouth, and people began to discuss it in low voices. They all sized up Yun Nan and Fang Xi as if they were foreign entities.
"What's going on here? What's with all the commotion? Let me in on it, too!" A voice suddenly rang out.
Everyone consciously moved aside to clear a path. Accompanied by a group of people, Mr. Mo walked over. When Fang Xi saw him, she smiled and went up to him. "Mr. Mo, what do you think of the model I found for Moun?" she asked.
Yun Nan smiled and stood on the spot. Suddenly, her eyes focused and met another person's gaze as surprised as hers.
The person accompanying Mr. Mo was Shi Nian.
Shi Nian looked at the beauty in red before him and was stunned. 'Is this Yun Nan?'
"Yun Nan, come here!" Mr. Mo beckoned. "I see Fang Xi has tricked you into becoming a model again!"
"What are you talking about? What do you mean 'I tricked her again?'" Fang Xi harrumphed.
Mr. Mo chuckled. "Yun Nan, the dress you're now wearing is Moun's latest design. Do you know it's the only one in the world?"
Yun Nan was shocked. She truly had no idea.
Fang Xi pretended not to hear the gasps around them and raised her voice to declare, "This particular Moun piece is on the official website and hasn't been released yet. He has been looking for a suitable model for a long time, and I've found one for him. Mr. Mo, just tell me if our Yun Nan is suitable!"
