Ni Jia was flushed with anger from being yelled at. She had been with Li Tingyan for over two years, and although he was always cold to her, he had never lost his temper with her like this. It must be that village girl who badmouthed her. They say rural people have the nastiest minds!
"Tingyan, how can you say that to me? You know I've liked you for two years, yet you chose a lowly rural person over me!"
"Doctor Ni, you keep saying 'lowly rural person' as if you're so noble. What's wrong with being from the countryside? I didn't eat your family's rice. If you look three generations back, who isn't from the countryside?" Nianyang said with a sarcastic smile.
"Besides, without rural people farming and planting, where would you, Doctor Ni, get the rice to act so arrogantly here? You eat the rice grown by rural people and yet look down on them. You've got a lot of nerve!"
"Well said!"
Around them, some people with rural backgrounds couldn't help but clap and cheer.
