Yuan Youyuan watched from the side, extremely annoyed. She greatly detested the frivolous attitude of Jin Hongtao and the others.
This wasn't just malice towards women; it was arrogance and haughtiness to the core. They completely saw others as playthings.
Gao Xuan held Yuan Youyuan's hand, "Don't get upset, the elders haven't said anything."
"I just can't stand this. This old woman is practically selling her daughter for glory."
Yuan Youyuan was indignant, "The old woman is shameless for the sake of a position. This is even more disgusting than those men."
"This is just how the world is."
Gao Xuan told Yuan Youyuan, "Don't cause any trouble. You'll ruin someone else's good thing."
"Hai Ting is being forced!"
"I don't think so..."
Yuan Youyuan ignored Gao Xuan, she took Hai Ting's hand and said softly, "If anything happens, just come to me, I'll stand up for you, no need to be afraid!"
Hai Ting nodded obediently, "Thank you, Sister Yuan..."
