He Family’s eyes flickered with an unmistakable hint of disappointment as she glanced in the direction of the carriage, “Jin Yu didn’t come over?”A frown creased Yao Family’s brow.Jin Yu, Jin Yu, Gu Jiao stood right in front of her, couldn’t she first greet Gu Jiao?Gu Jiao remained composed; she didn’t greet the He Family either and simply strode past her, catching up with Mengmeng who was in front of her, admiring the Stone Lions.Yao Yuan glared at the He Family.The corners of He Family’s mouth turned down. She was just asking a question, what’s the big deal?
