Gu Yan huddled to the side, trembling, her resolve hardening.
Bai Zhengping and Bai Junbai were talking in the study, while Lin Xiazhu was taking a walk in the garden with her younger sisters and Gu Yan. Yan Xin walked at the very back like a silly goose, not saying a word and almost invisible.
"Who cares what kind of people they are? We'll be going back in a few days, and it'll be hard to see them again. Don't worry about them too much." Lin Xiazhu didn't want to take unimportant people to heart.

Lin Chacha nodded seriously, but in her heart she was thinking that if she met a few more people like the two aunts from the Bai family at the banquet, she would be in for a lot of trouble. They were not compatible and were from different worlds, so she should not force herself to get close to them.
