Lin Qianqing was caught awkwardly in the middle; she couldn't claim she hadn't heard her older cousin belittling Gu Youyou just now, and she had clearly heard this Mr. Xiao's sarcastic comment as well.

Xiao Jinyan snorted coldly and said, "What a bold cousin."
Gu Youyou rolled her eyes in embarrassment.
