Lin Jin quickly retracted his gaze and turned his attention back to He Qing.
"An apology, huh? And you came empty-handed?" Lin Jin asked.
At this, He Qing stuck her tongue out before sheepishly and taking some dessert out.
"This is made by the masters in the palace. They're really good at making treats and these are some of my favorites. If you like them, Appraiser Lin, I can bring more next time."
As she spoke, He Qing laid the desserts out on the table.
In fact, the moment he stepped into the room, Lin Jin could already smell the mouth-watering fragrance of food.
Xiao Huo detected it even earlier than him. Lin Jin's nose obviously couldn't compare to Xiao Huo's, but he recently noticed that his sense of smell was getting keener.
