When she handed the bird's nest to the Nan Family matriarch, the old lady instantly noticed the red burn on her hand and stared at Qin Yin for a while before asking, "Does it hurt?"
"It hurts," Qin Yin honestly replied.
The Nan Family matriarch still did not take the bird's nest, but she was quite surprised that Qin Yin actually admitted to the pain. She had thought Qin Yin would try to win her forgiveness by even denying the pain, so she curled her lips and with a sharp gaze, she said to Qin Yin, "If it hurts, why would you still carry it yourself?"
"I am your granddaughter-in-law, it's only right for me to serve Grandmother the bird's nest," Qin Yin said softly, yet without any hint of subservience.
"If you think it's only right, then why mention that it hurts?" the matriarch continued to probe.
"Because I don't want to lie to Grandmother," Qin Yin lifted her head, making eye contact with the Nan Family matriarch.
