In fact, with the level of hearing Su Linglong had at the moment, she could easily catch every word from a distance of twenty meters if she had paid attention. But her focus was entirely on Fang Bai; she couldn't be bothered to listen to or look at what others were saying or doing.
Thus, while Fang Bai heard clearly what those men discussed just now, she had absolutely no idea.
Fang Bai said with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes, "They were saying things like 'the cabbage has been rooted by the pig, the swan meat has been eaten by the toad'... and some other less pleasant things that I'd rather not repeat. They were all about praising you and belittling me. It seems that a beauty is popular wherever she goes!"
Being praised by others should have been a joyous occasion, but not only did Su Linglong fail to find joy in it, she felt quite angry instead.
Fang Bai was her Achilles' heel; others belittling him was even more upsetting to her than them belittling her.
