Meanwhile, Qin Yin sat quietly on the sofa, watching Nan Jingkang entertaining the guests. Yet a good number of them glanced over at her from time to time. She was well aware of what they were looking at, but she didn't mind, nor could she afford to mind. Could she actually go up and slap them?

Qin Yin didn't care and just silently sipped her tea alone.
