Situ Xin arched an eyebrow at Brown Kress's words and then looked at him with a mocking smile in her eyes. Brown Kress seemed to be acknowledging her status, insinuating that she wasn't worthy enough to stand by Xiao Muli's side.
However, Situ Xin was puzzled about what Brown Kress really meant. Even if he considered his own status noble and looked down upon Situ Xin's commoner background, he had no reason to target her like this.
Situ Xin didn't understand the reason behind Brown Kress's attitude towards her, but Xiao Muli's expression darkened after hearing Brown Kress's words. Situ Xin was his treasure; not only would he not bear anyone speaking ill of her, but even the thought of giving her a disdainful look was intolerable to Xiao Muli.
