An Zhisu was extremely anxious.
The reason she liked to defend her shortcomings was mostly because of Su Jian's reminders and mentoring, which had subtly instilled in her some traditional notions, such as "a master should look after their disciples," "a father should protect his children," and "a senior sister should protect her junior brother," and so on.
However, what should she do when her junior brother's cultivation level surpassed the senior sister?
If Su Jian were to comment, he would say, "this senior sister really isn't very impressive."
After all, in Su Jian's view, I look after you because I am senior to you and stronger than you, so it is only right.
But if I am senior to you and yet weaker than you, who should look after who? Losing the dignity of a senior sister, this natural order of relationships would be in chaos!
It was because of this that An Zhisu had been somewhat sullen these past few days, and consequently, she drank quite a bit more liquor.
