"I don't think it's that difficult," Shen Mochen whispered in objection, always quick to respond.
"You wish!" Xia Qingrou retorted sharply.
After all, she was from an elite family in the Capital, naturally aware of how enormous these prestigious families were. Ordinary people might think that after reading some novels, they could "rise to high position and great wealth as easily as turning one's hand," but only those who could truly engage with that social stratum knew how colossal these people were.
Almost without exception, they had accumulated their wealth and power over several generations. Even a family like Xia Qingrou's felt an immense chasm that was simply unreachable when faced with theirs.
