"Mother, Commander Yue suddenly brought up the matter of the Contract. Did you ask him to do that?" Lin Mo demanded urgently, having tracked down Lin Yuzhi after the celebration banquet.
"And shouldn't I have?" Lin Yuzhi retorted irritably. "Whether it's personal ability or family background, you're not inferior to that Yu Mingche in any way. You were by Ning Xuan's side even earlier than he was, so on what grounds should he get to overshadow you?"
"That was Ning Xuan's arrangement. She's the Contractor; she can arrange things however she pleases. I have absolutely no problem with it, so why are you meddling?" Lin Mo complained.
Lin Mo was now panicking. Ning Xuan had a strong and domineering personality; she hated it when people tried to tell her what to do. Not long ago, Yu Mingche had somehow provoked her and been put soundly in his place.
