a man

Xiaolin was standing outside the private room where her mistress and the Emperor were having their lunch when she suddenly heard the sound of arguing. At first, she thought that someone outside was arguing but when the sound of a bowl breaking came from inside and the Emperor stepped out of the private room with an angry expression on his face, seeing that the Emperor was angry, Xiaolin did not dare to raise her head, instead, she lowered her head and stared at her feet. 

And she continued staring at her feet until the Emperor walked away, only when the Emperor was far from the private room did Xiaolin raise her head and walked inside the private room where her mistress was on her knees, her eyes twinkling with tears as she stared at the door from where the Emperor left just now.
