Bad Karma

The Empress was eating fruits when the maidservant informed her that Xue Yu-Yan visited her. Weng Wei flinched her brows. "Bring her in," Weng Wei commanded. In a minute, Xue Yu-Yan came inside the chamber. She bowed and greeted the Empress. 

"You showed your face after a long time," Weng Wei asserted. 

"Forgive me, your majesty," Xue Yu-Yan apologized. 

"Will you keep staying like this? Have a seat," Weng Wei gestured towards the floor mattress. Xue Yu-Yan got seated down on the mattress and asked Weng Wei if she could peel the fruits for her. 

"No need. I am done." Weng Wei replied and picked the napkin from the table. She dabbed her mouth with it. Placing it back on the table, Weng Wei said, "You disappointed me. And what is wrong with your face?" Weng Wei was annoyed at Xue Yu-Yan.
