Chapter 17: Sorry, it was a slip of the hand.



"ah!"

"girl!"

A few girls were playing, and to avoid disturbing the others, the maids and servants all stayed a short distance away. When Green Ivy saw that paint had been spilled all over Jiang Xuelin, starting from her shoulders and going down, it had turned her hibiscus-colored floral floor-length dress into a different color.

The paint was already difficult to wash off, and Jiang Xuelin looked extremely disheveled.
