The atmosphere at the scene froze for a moment; everyone's faces turned red in unison. Feeling uneasy, they averted their gaze and pretended to be busy. However, because they were distracted, they were in a mess. Some fell while mopping the floor, or dropped bowls. For a moment, the place was in such disorder that it resembled a disaster scene.

The rest of them were struggling to hold in their own laughs. They didn't know whether they should laugh or not.
Thinking of Major General Huo's vengeful personality, it would be better to make an effort to suppress their laughter.
"Hahaha... Bei Jiang, this is..." Xi Liqun said amidst his laughter as he pointed to his own neck. "Did you know I was coming, so you deliberately did this to show off?"
