The thought of this filled Jin Linlin's heart with resentment and dissatisfaction. She felt that she and Nianchu seemed to have no important position in his heart. Otherwise, why would he plead for Cao Jiao at this time? This was simply a disregard for her and Nianchu!
Just as Jin Linlin was secretly cursing in her heart, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door. Then, a young eunuch hurried in and knelt down to report:
