Everyone froze on the spot. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
That included Nangong Yin, who was stuck in the gap of the door.
President Dong Ling trembled a little while she walked forward.
All the people who weren't on the stage and had heard the noise widened their eyes. No one spoke a word.
Liu Lu's knees had hit the ground with a loud thud. He looked weak and limp.
Liu Lu turned around and looked at Xu Xiaoshou with widened eyes. He couldn't believe his ears. He only realized what was going on when he saw Xu Xiaoshou's face.
"Young Master Xu must think the person in front of him is another nobody," thought Liu Lu.
He was rendered completely speechless for a short while.
Xu Xiaoshou had only arrived in the royal city for a couple of days. It was normal for him to not know the "old lady" stood in front of him.
"Young ... Young Master Xu," said Liu Lu while stuttering. "There's something you need to know."
