She planned to make herself the prettiest and hoped that the king would notice it one day.

"Don't call me vice-manager!" Yao Zheng scolded. "Everyone addresses me as the manager if Lan Yi is not around, you hear me?"

Yao Zheng hated the fact that she was below Lan Yi and not the head of the servants.

"Yes, manager."
