Despite her pale face, she still forced a smile. "I understand, Cousin Yan. In your heart, I am nothing compared to your sister…"
Once again, Yao Ran's signature pitiful look evoked sympathy from everyone who was watching. Her friends glared at Yao Yan.
"Oh, that's not it at all," Yao Yan said lightly, his expression turning serious. "I am saying this for your own good. We are family, after all. I mean, if Tangtang can accomplish these things, then surely, you can as well, right? Don't take my words in a bad light, they are meant to encourage you. You understand, don't you?"
Then, as if to taunt her further, Yao Yan leaned forward and asked, "You won't misunderstand my good intentions, right?"
Qin Man choked on air where she stood. Yao Yan was using her own tactics against them!
She knew that he was subtly mocking and belittling Ranran.
But she couldn't say anything at this point, or she would only be digging her own grave.
