Jin Qianqian knew she was kindly giving her a heads-up, so she blinked and asked, "Is there something wrong with her?"

"It's the same difference. Besides, from the look on Madam Ning's face, she seems rather disdainful of her mother-in-law."
Jin Qianqian could already imagine several versions of the mother-and-daughter-in-law drama playing out in her head, but she kept her thoughts to herself and continued walking quietly.
