"Then you should bump up our status a bit more." Xiaomai couldn't help but say.
"Don't be afraid," Yang Wenxiao laughed upon hearing this, "From now on, if anyone bullies you, just stand up to them head-on. If things escalate, come to me, and I'll stand up for you and your spouse."
Qiao Xiaomai, "...It's just a title."
"Your journey is still long. If you were suddenly promoted to a duke, how would you be able to climb higher after achieving more? Don't rush, take it slowly," Yang Wenxiao consoled him.
After hearing this, Xiaomai could only smile.
Yang Wenxiao's stinginess truly hadn't diminished at all.
Tong Tiehu slept all the way until the next morning, then ate breakfast with Qiao Xiaomai and left the Palace together to head to Jimei Residence.
He was to take over the accounts of Jimei Residence.
