Madam Chu's face was ashen as she looked at Xiaomei. "Fu Bing didn't get anywhere with me, so she sent you, a fool, over? Is she really that naive?"
"My sister isn't naive, and I'm not a fool. Your words are truly unpleasant. We might be much younger than you, but if you have a problem, can't you just say it directly? Must you be sarcastic and make insinuations about everyone?"
Xiaomei couldn't understand. Teacher Rong Shizhi had told her she didn't need to change her characteristics; maintaining her unique traits was how she wouldn't be replaced. Her strengths were her straightforwardness and sincerity. She knew this about herself. Sometimes, these two qualities were very important.
