Xiao Yi saw Xu Jing looking conflicted and slightly raised the corners of his mouth. "Don't force yourself if there's no clue for now. This case has stumped the Ministry of Justice for five years, indicating that the criminal isn't easy to find. I hear from your guards that you've been very busy lately yet always find time to come by. They've privately mentioned to me that they're worried you might be overworked."
Xu Jing was slightly stunned.
She indeed had been busy recently but hadn't expected those usually stiff and serious guards to show concern for people.
Her mouth curled up slightly, and she said, "It's fine. I enjoy the feeling of being busy."
Dongli, who was serving nearby, couldn't help but glance silently at her lord.
Although he wasn't as enthusiastic as Xianyun about matchmaking, he somewhat understood Xianyun's frustration with her lord.
Obviously, the person who's concerned is his lord. Why involve those clumsy brutes?
