"Dad, I'm sorry, it was me who bribed the Zhao family's servant to take Rong Qingqing and lock her up. I originally just wanted to keep her there for an hour or two, and release her before the banquet ended."
"I just couldn't stand her showing off everywhere, so I thought of locking her up. I really didn't know that Rong Qingqing had that kind of phobia and it would turn out this way."
Rong Jiaojiao initially thought she could lock Rong Qingqing up while no one noticed, and then release her before the party ended, again when no one was paying attention.
If Rong Qingqing couldn't show her face, she wouldn't be able to steal the spotlight.
But she truly didn't expect Shen Jue to discover Rong Qingqing's disappearance so quickly, nor did she expect the consequences to be so severe after Rong Qingqing was locked in the storeroom.
