Lu Ying's face was expressionless, though she almost felt like laughing.
Shen Yinning—she didn't care about the wager with him, nor did she care about him as a person.

Shen Yinning propped up her chin, quietly observing him.

On the day of his enthronement, he must have been even more awe-inspiring and dazzling than he was today, wasn't he?
