This wasn't due to an inflated self-confidence on Gao Wenyuan's part, but rather it was because she fully understood that her status could be improved.
Wasn't Jianmu devoid of any status before he was accepted as Qixing's disciple?
As long as Gao Hongying genuinely regards herself as a tool to curry favor with Jianmu, her status would quickly rise.
Among the young females of the Gao Family, her talent was exceptional and she was unrivaled in beauty.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been handpicked by Gao Hongying just for her talent.
Gao Wenyuan both admired and flattered Gao Hongying and kept a wariness towards him in the depths of her heart.
She was not born as a direct descendant of the Gao Family after all, devoid of the stable support provided by blood ties.
Her current status seemed like a castle built on air.
