Although Li Xuan had not known Lin Yuan for long, Li Xuan had sensed Lin Yuan's truly sincere preference to keep himself under the radar.
Ever since Lin Yuan had met Li Xuan, he never even breathed a word about his status.
When Lin Yuan mentioned that the ingredients had come from Leaning Moon Mountain, he was covertly declaring his status to Li Xuan's First Elder.
Lin Yuan had done that to help Li Xuan.
Moreover, Lin Yuan had shown Li Xuan respect through the order in which he poured the tea.
At that moment, Li Xuan did not know how to thank Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan had done that because he had noticed the change in the way that the First Elder was looking at Li Xuan. Hence, Lin Yuan decided to help Li Xuan even further.
Lin Yuan, who had come to this new world, understood interpersonal ties well. He immediately understood the meaning behind the First Elder's gaze.
