Jiang Yanwan's eyes trembled, as if the sky had fallen and the earth had collapsed. "What did Your Highness say... I am the daughter of the Jiang family, the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's mansion."
Zhao Yan shoved the man to the ground, his eyes flashing with malice. "Is this the loyalty Jiang Su has for me, given my lowly bloodline?"

Jiang Yanwan's breath caught in her throat as she stared incredulously into Zhao Yan's icy eyes, her fists clenching tighter and tighter.
