"I -" Li Huiran's eyes darted to Li Yuyan and she muttered, "I was worried about her."
"She already messed up, so you running out would only make things worse! Ah, you two are -"
"It's okay, dad. Everyone makes mistakes." He Xinyan stood up with an understanding smile, "Auntie Li and Yuyan are probably just not used to the upper-class behavior and etiquette yet."
"It has been several years already!" Bai Jiawei glared at Li Yuyan, unable to stand what happened at his 60th birthday party.
"Well. . . they weren't born with it so. . ."
Li Huiran clenched her fists together as she heard the hidden meaning behind He Xinyan's words. He Xinyan was just saying that she would never belong in the upper class and that she was still an outsider.
He Xinyan sighed and walked away, gently patting Li Yuyan's shoulder as she went, "I'm going to go to sleep. Happy birthday, dad."
