Even the tycoons of wealthy families kneel down; the real heiress is the matriarch.

Ye Yixue bit her lower lip tightly, about to say something to make her presence known, when a group of female guests surrounded Bai Su and pushed her out.

"Ms. Ye, how do you take care of your skin?"

"Yeah, how come you're so fair-skinned?"

"What do you usually eat? You maintain such a great figure."

"Where did you buy that dress? It's so pretty."

Bai Su answered them one by one.

She didn't say that she was born this way, but instead sincerely offered some skincare advice.

"You can eat more oranges to supplement your vitamin C intake..."

"As for this dress, it was a gift from my younger sister Yixue."

Ye Yixue stood outside the crowd, staring intently at Bai Su.

In the past, all the praise was directed at her, but now it all falls on Bai Su!

Damn tacky stuff, just you can be so smug!

The more smug you are now, the more embarrassed you will be later!

Ye Yixue raised her wrist and frequently checked the time on her watch.

Two or three minutes left.

In two or three minutes, Ye Baisu will become the most embarrassing person in the whole room!

Her red lips, painted with lipstick, curved into a strange arc.

However, as time passed, five minutes had gone by, and there was still no response from Bai Su.

Ye Yixue's initial smugness gradually turned into disbelief.

What happened?

Why hasn't it started acting up yet?

She was clearly very well prepared!

Ye Baisu should be starting to show signs of illness by now!

No one knew except herself that she had tampered with the dress she gave to Bai Su.

She rolled a peach on the back of her skirt several times.

—Ye's mother once told her that Bai Su was severely allergic to peach fuzz.

Moreover, allergies can occur very quickly, within ten to fifteen minutes.

That dress was one she had carefully selected.

The buttons on the back have been tampered with; they are very fragile and will fall off at the slightest touch.

Whenever Bai Su starts to have an allergic reaction, she can't help but scratch her back.

At that time, Bai Su will be exposed in front of all the guests.

This is the greatest humiliation a girl can suffer!

If guests ask, she can simply say that she asked her nanny to buy the dress.

She had also bribed the nanny in advance, so that if Mr. and Mrs. Ye really investigated further, the nanny would take the blame.

She would give the nanny a generous reward.

She had made thorough preparations in advance, even preparing an escape route for herself.

But now, almost half an hour has passed, why is Bai Su not reacting at all?

Could it be that she remembered it wrong?

This is impossible...

Just as Ye Yixue was about to subtly inquire with her mother, a sudden exclamation came from Bai Su's side.

Ye Yixue's hand clenched instantly.

coming!

As the saying goes, "Heaven helps those who help themselves," and the moment she had been waiting for finally arrived!

Her jealousy, her resentment, and her grievances at being ignored as the hostess of the birthday party—all of these feelings could finally be released and rewarded at this moment.

Ye Yixue took a deep breath and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Sister, what's wrong?!"

The guests were already focused on Bai Su's stunning entrance, and Ye Yixue's shout instantly drew everyone's attention.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ye Yixue pulled aside the two people blocking Bai Su's way so that everyone could "enjoy" Bai Su's exposed skin.

Ye Yixue had no interest in Bai Su's body, so she wasn't in a hurry to "enjoy" Bai Su's wardrobe malfunction. Instead, she pulled people away and immediately went to see the guests' reactions.

—The reactions of the people are the fruits of her victory.

The guests looked over in confusion, then paused for a moment, before their eyes widened in surprise.

Ye Yixue was secretly delighted.

See that?

This is the "fairy" you were just holding up high.

Even a true fairy who falls to earth will end up in a sorry state.

However, before Ye Yixue could be happy for long, the crowd erupted in gasps of surprise after their initial shock.

"How could this happen?"

"A miracle! This is a miracle!"

"How did you do that?"

Ye Yixue frowned.

What miracle?

How did you do that?

It's just a wardrobe malfunction, is that really a miracle?

This is so inexplicable.

Ye Yixue turned her head to look at Bai Su with a puzzled expression.

But Bai Su not only didn't gasp in surprise, but instead smiled and looked completely calm.

Why would Bai Su react this way?

Ye Yixue subconsciously looked at Bai Su's back and saw that her dress was on perfectly, without any signs of being exposed.

How could this happen?

How could her last move have failed?

impossible!

Just as Ye Yixue was frantically searching for the reason, she saw the director's wife walk over quickly, push her aside, and walk excitedly to her daughter.

"Yueyue, your face... your face has recovered?!"

The bureau chief's daughter, Lin Yue, covered her face, looking utterly incredulous.

"Mom, is my face really healed? They weren't lying to me?"

"It's really healed! Mom can see it clearly!"

The mother and daughter immediately embraced each other, bursting into tears of joy.

The guests were chattering away.

"Wasn't the bureau chief's daughter's face disfigured? How come it's suddenly healed?"

"That's truly a miracle! How did they manage to do that?"

"Who cured her? This person is truly a miracle worker!"

Only then did Ye Yixue notice that Lin Yue's face, which was originally covered with red spots, had faded by six or seven points, and her original appearance could now be seen.

While she was surprised, she finally realized why everyone exclaimed "miracle" when she pulled away the two people blocking her view.

Those words weren't spoken to Bai Su, but to Lin Yue, the bureau chief's daughter.

However, Ye Yixue's focus was not on Lin Yue.

Whether Lin Yue was alive or dead, beautiful or ugly, she didn't care at all.

What she cared about was why Bai Su hadn't exposed herself.

Why did her meticulously prepared plan fail?

Ye Yixue bit her lower lip tightly, just about to walk over to Bai Su to subtly inquire about the situation, when she heard Lin Yue say, "Mom, it's Miss Bai. Miss Bai healed my face."

"What?"

"What?!"

Ye Yixue and the director's wife simultaneously raised a shocked question.

Ye's father and mother also stepped forward in surprise to inquire about the situation.

"Bai Su, you know how to cure illnesses?"

"What exactly is going on?"

Before Bai Su could speak, Lin Yue gratefully took her hand and explained the situation on her behalf.

"Miss Bai just said she would help me treat my face. I didn't take it seriously, but I still went along with it."

"I never expected that she would just take a kind of grass, knead it into a ball in her palm, and then apply the juice to my face a few times. I felt a cool and comfortable sensation on my face."

"Not long after, they said that the red spots on my face had faded a lot..."

At this point, Lin Yue burst into tears of joy once again.

"Ms. Bai, thank you."

"The red patches on my face have bothered me for many years. They have not only disfigured me, but also made me feel extremely itchy and painful all the time."

"I thought I would never be able to get rid of this pain in my entire life, but I never expected that you would actually cure me."

"Thank you, Miss Bai, you are my benefactor for life!"

Lin Yue bowed deeply to Bai Su.

God knows how excited she is right now!

The director's wife was equally grateful.

She has a son and a daughter. Her son is handsome, but her daughter was diagnosed with this disease two years ago for no apparent reason, which keeps her up at night.

Who would have thought that Bai Su would cure her daughter's illness so quickly?

Overwhelmed with gratitude, she simply knelt down before Bai Su.

Bai Su nodded: "Get up, no need for formalities..."

"What do you mean no need for formalities! Quickly help the director's wife up!" Mr. Ye glared at Bai Su.

What an ill-mannered girl!

Relying on his ability to treat some skin diseases, he took advantage of the situation and dared to kneel down.

If the director's wife realizes she has been offended and a favor turns into an enmity, what will happen then?

Rather than standing out, Ye's father preferred steady progress.

In other words, he is outwardly strong but inwardly weak; he is a very timid and cowardly person.

Bai Su realized that she was just a little girl who was two months shy of turning eighteen, so she reached out and helped the director's wife up.

Mr. Ye rolled his eyes at Bai Su again and said, "She just came back from the countryside and doesn't know the proper etiquette. Please excuse her."

"No, no, Miss Bai is our family's benefactor. This kneeling is my own choice."

Since the bureau chief's wife had said that, Mr. Ye couldn't say anything more. He simply asked Bai Su, "What medicine did you give Miss Lin?"

Won't it cause some long-term effects?

When this was mentioned, the director's wife also looked puzzled.

"I've taken Yueyue to see countless dermatologists, but none of them can cure her face... Ms. Bai, how did you cure her? Could you please send us some more medication?"

Bai Su took out a blade of grass that resembled a weed and said, "This is what I used."

Butler Ye happened to see the "weeds" in Bai Su's hand through the crowd.

Wasn't that something he threw away himself, some kind of "gift" that Bai Su gave him?

Bai Su explained, "This is the Bitter Cold Grass, which only grows in bitter cold places and can remove hundreds of toxins."

"poison?!"

The bureau chief's wife and Lin Yue were shocked.

"That's right." Bai Su nodded and said, "Miss Lin's red spots are not a skin disease, but because she has been poisoned. This bitter herb can remove the poison. However, it needs to be used for at least three consecutive days to completely remove the toxins."

The bureau chief's wife glanced at Lin Yue's face.

Although the red spots on Lin Yue's face have faded a lot, some remain.

She temporarily disregarded why her daughter had been poisoned and hurriedly pleaded with Bai Su, "Miss Bai, could you sell me two more portions of Bitter Cold Grass?"

Bai Su shook her head.

"cannot."

The bureau chief's wife was taken aback. Before she could say anything, Mr. and Mrs. Ye spoke up simultaneously, "What nonsense are you talking about?! Quickly bring out the medicine and give it to Mrs. Lin!"

Bai Su sighed, "It's not that I'm unwilling to give it, but I only have three Bitter Cold Grass plants in total. I just gave one to Miss Lin, and with this one in my hand, I only have two left. I've already given the other one to Steward Ye."

The couple immediately found Steward Ye outside the crowd and asked him to hand over the bitter herb.

The bureau chief's wife—they are people we can't afford to offend!

Just moments ago, Steward Ye was lamenting that he had lost such a useful medicinal herb, but now, seeing them urging him to get the Bitter Cold Grass, his face turned even paler.

The issue is no longer about the value of the medicinal herbs, but rather that he is very likely to lose this lucrative job!

"I...I..."

"What do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'hand it over' right now!" Mr. Ye said coldly, his brows furrowed.
