Zhou Yuanyuan slapped her palm down hard, leaving Yang Yuran's little hand a bit reddened, and sneered, "This classmate, you'd better watch your words and don't stick out your elbow. I admit that Tianyu is more powerful than Jiade, but my dad and I really appreciate talent, you know. We offered Tao Feng a salary double that of Tianyu's."
Having benefited from Jiade's favor, Yang Yuran was very tactful and nodded in agreement, "Yes, Tao Feng is like an impoverished scholar from ancient times who rarely gained fame. He received great favor from the Princess, who appointed him as the Consort Prince. He could have soared with the Princess's help, yet he insisted on living up to the adage 'the poorer one is, the prouder one should be.' He turned down the Princess and married the common girl he loved."
