Jin Qianqian wasn't angry that Prefect Nan had taken a side. After all, they were little more than acquaintances. To be blunt, there was no deep friendship between them.
It was only natural for him to weigh the pros and cons for the sake of his career. That was perfectly reasonable.
But what infuriated her most was Mrs. Nan Wang. In her letter, she had all but explicitly told Qianqian to bow her head and go apologize to the Tian Family.
Wenheng tried to soothe her. "She probably meant well. The head of the Huang family is a First-Grade Minister, after all, and our own foundation is still too shallow. It's no wonder they made such a choice."
Jin Qianqian replied, "I understand all that, but I just can't stomach this. I thought the Huang family would have learned their lesson after what happened last time. It seems I was too naive."
"Do they think they can humiliate us as they please just because we aren't going to Shangjing anymore?"
