Xiao Jizi really underestimated her. Why worry about such trifles? She already had a better plan to punish His Majesty, and she certainly would not want His Majesty to suffer through that blackened, half-cooked meal.
So, it goes without saying that Xiao Jizi was worrying over nothing. However, she wouldn't reveal that, as the young eunuch's skin was itching for a lesson, which served him right.
Xiao Linzi was suddenly startled and avoided Lian Hua's gaze, as if she were talking about him.
Xiao Jizi, on the other hand, was relieved. Muttering 'better you than me,' he decided that if his master enjoyed teasing Xiao Linzi, then so be it.
He breathed a sigh of relief and smiled happily, "Master is wise. Not to boast, but I excel at this task."
As long as it wasn't for His Majesty, his hand was quite steady when it came to stirring the pot.
