The harsh words fell on Lin Yixun's ears, but she didn't take them to heart. Shen Xu, however, couldn't stand it and wanted to stand up for her, but Lin Yixun held him back.
"Don't!"
"They said those things about you, and you're not angry?" Shen Xu said indignantly.
"What's there to be angry about? Besides, what they said was true."
"Shi Yi, since when did you become so good-natured?" The Shi Yi he knew would never let an insult slide.
"It's not about being good-natured or bad-natured; I'm just too lazy to bother." Lin Yixun turned her gaze to not far away, seizing the opportunity to change the subject, "There's a lot of food over there, shall we go get some?"
Shen Xu knew she was changing the subject, so he didn't dwell on it. After all, if the emperor is not in a hurry, why should the eunuch be?
So, Shen Xu followed Lin Yixun to the buffet area.
