"What's wrong?" asked Ye Xinyan, her tone and gaze far from friendly.
She was already miserable, yet she still had to endure a young girl's contempt for her intellect. For heaven's sake, she had legitimately studied for over a decade and spent nearly ten years competing in the professional world, okay?
So why, when she listened to the young girl's words, did it feel so off-putting? She was genuinely being looked down upon by an ancient maid!
Today, Zhou Biyao was completely immune to Ye Xinyan's fierce stare, and she scoffed, "What else could it be, Sister? You are just too naive. Grandpa Qi is trying so hard because he's worried that Sister and Brother Jia won't be able to protect themselves in the future. His Majesty's decree, though reprimanding the granddaughter of the Ye Family, actually penalized the silver of the Qi family."
