"Second sister, should we catch up with them?"
Watching Daohua and others already walking out of the courtyard gate, Yan Yile glanced at the red-eyed Yan Yishuang, hesitatingly looking toward Yan Yihuan.
Yan Yihuan thought about the indifference Zhou Jingwan and her companions had shown them; she felt somewhat daunted. However, remembering her mother's urging a few days prior to befriend these officials' daughters, she steeled herself and said, "There are so many people, elder sister must be too busy by herself, we should go over and help."
Yan Yile, who enjoyed lively scenes and wished to meet those missies dressed more elegantly than themselves, immediately smiled in agreement, took Yan Yihuan by the hand, and was about to go after them.
Yan Yihuan did not forget to pull along Yan Yishuang, who stood to one side with reddening eyes, comforting her, "Third younger sister, our home is hosting guests right now, it wouldn't look good for others to see you like this."
