Chapter 1438: Demanding a Lesson

Qiao Xuan firmly gripped her and spoke with a smile, "Miss Qiao, when did you become so audacious? What's the purpose of flattering yourself? I'm not your sister, and there's no need to be so presumptuous."

Qiao Wei's face flushed instantly. She clutched her clothing tightly with one hand, pursed her lips, and murmured softly, "Why do you… look down on me? I know the Qiao Family has disappointed you, and I'm aware you hold me in low regard. I'm not on your level. However, we've been traveling together for some time, and we've spent a lot of time together. Can't we get along?"

"Furthermore, I didn't say anything disrespectful. I'm slightly older than you. I don't understand why I can't call you 'sister.'"

"No!" Qiao Xuan responded firmly, her tone cold. "It's not appropriate. Aren't you aware of the longstanding feud between our families? Are you clueless? Even if you were aware, you shouldn't utter such presumptuous words!"

Qiao Wei's voice trailed off.
