In fact, Qin Li did look down on Yun Jian.
It could even be said that Qin Li looked down on Zhang Meihua's family.
Qin Li's father and Zhang Meihua were siblings, so Zhang Meihua's generation had plenty of siblings as well.
When it was Yun Jian's generation, these people were no longer as close as they used to be.
They were considered distant relatives now, but it was hard to say if they could maintain their relationship in the future.
Qin Li, on the other hand, was always boasting about his status as a high-ranking official.
Especially during the reunion dinner during Chinese New Year or when relatives gathered like today, it was a time to show off one's status.
It was one thing for everyone to sit down and have dinner together. Of course, it was more important to talk about what one had done this year or how much one's income was.
Comparisons were unavoidable.
Especially those who had a higher income, they would think that they were superior while those who had a lower income and did not have a high status in society would feel inferior in comparison.
Qin Li was the type of person who wanted to show off his status and high income in front of his distant relatives.
As for why he looked down on Zhang Meihua's family, it was because in Qin Li's impression of his father's younger sister, Zhang Meihua's generation, there had never been a capable person!
Unlike his own line of descent. Which one of them did not have excellent grades, get into a good high school or university, and finally get a decent job?
In fact, other than Yun Jian, Zhang Meihua and the rest did not seem to notice Qin Li's disdain for Zhang Meihua's family at all and fawned over Qin Li even more.
Yun Jian, on the other hand, ignored Zhang Meihua's words.
Zhang Meihua's intention was clear. She wanted her to fawn over Qin Li and suck up to him as well.
By doing so, it was like Zhang Meihua was introducing Yun Jian to an important figure like Qin Li.
With this, Zhang Meihua thought that Yun Jian would owe her a favor.
However, she did not expect Yun Jian to not give her any face.
"Jian Jian, your uncle is praising you. Aren't you going to say something?" Zhang Meihua urged when she saw that Yun Jian did not give her face.
As she spoke, Zhang Meihua even winked at Qin Yirou, as if she wanted Qin Yirou to tell Yun Jian to be obedient.
However, Qin Yirou did not notice Zhang Meihua's frown.
Qin Yirou thought that Zhang Meihua's eyes were hurting. She asked Zhang Meihua in confusion and worry, "Mom, what's wrong with you? Are your eyes hurting? "
"It's fine!" When Zhang Meihua heard what Qin Yirou said, she was so angry that her breathing quickened. She shouted at Qin Yirou angrily.
In such a situation, Zhang Meihua couldn't speak carelessly. However, just when Zhang Meihua thought that Yun Jian wouldn't say a word, Zhang Meihua suddenly stopped talking.
Yun Jian's lips curled up slightly as she looked at Qin Li, who was sitting opposite her. Their gazes met but she was not inferior to him at all.
"Thank you for the compliment," Yun Jian replied with a press of her lips.
If Qin Li's compliment of Yun Jian just now was extremely hypocritical, then Yun Jian's rebuttal was as distant as it could be.
Even Qin Li who was sitting opposite of Yun Jian could not help taking a few more glances at Yun Jian when they heard what she said.
In spite of it, she was only slightly capable.
It was already impressive enough for someone her age to be able to start a small company.
