"I've already given you everything of value." Jie Jingshan remained calm, but her gaze on Aunt Zhang grew sharper.
"Jing Qi, you gave them to me willingly," Aunt Zhang reminded her. Everyone in the Jie Family knew that Jing Qi had given her all her valuables. She had been good to Jing Qi, so it was only natural for Jing Qi to give her things.
'During the time I've been away from the Jie Family, Jie Jingshan has changed so much. Qiao Yanqiu must have sent Jing Qi more nice things. Especially the Qiao family, all the way in Xiangjiang, they're always mailing things to Jing Qi.'
"I gave them to you willingly. I never said you took them by force," Jie Jingshan said sarcastically.
Jie Jingshan's sarcastic words grated on Aunt Zhang's ears. In her eyes, Jie Jingshan was just an ungrateful wretch; it never occurred to her that she herself was the problem.
