Shang Junyan didn't expect to encounter Su Xinyi here, slightly taken aback. It had been a long time since he last saw her. Her jovial countenance was a stark contrast to her gloomy demeanor in his past life memories.
Shang Junyan stepped back slightly, dipping his head in greeting. "I pay my respects to the Crown Princess," he said.
Introducing a note of mockery in her voice, Su Xinyi said, "Lord Shang, there is no need for such formalities. We haven't met in a while, I see you've lost some weight."
Shang Junyan could detect a hint of gloating in Su Xinyi's seemingly calm tone. His expression tightened and he sighed, "Must you mock me like this?"
Feeling that the conversation was heading nowhere, Su Xinyi decided to leave. "Well then, I won't bother Lord Shang any longer, I'll take my leave now."
"Crown Princess, please wait," said Shang Junyan.
Stopping, Su Xinyi turned to look at him, "Lord Shang, is there something else?"
