Xuanyuan Mingmou.
Su Mingyue.
What were they doing here?
Startled, Xu Yinyin instinctively turned to look at Su Ye beside her.
Xu Yinyin had naturally heard about Su Family Affairs.
Su Ye's public break with the Su Family had caused quite a stir.

Face to face, yet strangers to each other.
That was exactly what this was.
"You flatter me, Aunt Xuanyuan."
"It's no flattery. Everyone knows how talented you
