Zhou Yuntang asked her, "Manman, have you suffered any other grievances?"
Zhou Man pursed her lips, her expression filled with confusion and grievance, "I don't know if it's my illusion, but Shi Miao doesn't seem to like me very much."
"Does she think I look down on her because I gave her gold jewelry? But I'm just worried she's short on money. My classmates all say gold is a good way to preserve its value, and that it's their favorite gift."

Her older brother always knew his limits and would definitely not bully Shi Miao too much. If he really went too far, she would plead for Shi Miao.
