Ye Shu pressed her lips together, her gaze kindly and devoid of aggression as she looked at Shen Shiqing and spoke in a light and breezy manner.
"Actually, everyone, regardless of their status, faces their own difficulties, and nobody has it easy. I started learning business and etiquette with my mother at the age of eight, dealing with different people in various circumstances with a smile on my face, even if someone hit you head-on, you still had to keep smiling. Some matters couldn't even be settled with a smile."
"This glory that has been with me since birth makes it harder than most because my mother is Sun Qian. With just a little less effort, it's very likely, as Miss Shen said, I would end up utterly useless and even be scorned and criticized behind my back."
So who doesn't try hard?
Her tone was light and indifferent, but her gaze at Shen Shiqing was loaded with veiled jabs, and her innate presence for a moment mirrored Huo Shenting's own.
