What's with this guy trying to climb the social ladder to the Xiao family? She didn't even know who he was at first!
"Mother, that uncle doesn't seem to like us?" Pingping looked at Wan Qiqi, seemingly wanting to get an answer from her mother.
“If you don’t like them, you don’t like them. Mother doesn’t like them either.” Wan Qiqi reached out and smoothed her nose, a smile curving her lips. “People will always have different preferences. We don’t need to change ourselves to please others, you know?”
