Xie Xuanchen watched as Mu Mingtang froze for a while, then raised her eyebrows suspiciously. Xie Xuanchen realized that he had answered incorrectly. He gave it a quick thought and took hold of the situation in a calm manner: "I was thinking about the palace affairs. Oh, yes, what did you just ask?"
Mu Mingtang did not doubt him, and could only repeat herself: "How did you do it?" Mu Mingtang said and picked up a cup, and also put on pressure: "Look, all angles are extremely hard. the round ones are not easy to exert force."
Mu Mingtang then used both her hands and kneaded back and forth: "It isn’t even budging."

The jade cup was divided into two halves, completely misplaced. Mu Mingtang froze in her actions. Xie Xuanchen looked at Mu Mingtang’s expression and thought she hadn’t learned the trick to it yet, so he picked up the last remaining jade cup: “Look at my demonstration, if you want to learn, I’ll ask them to go out and get a few more sets……"
"There’s no need, no need for that!" Mu Mingtang quickly got a hold of Xie Xuanchen's hand and rescued the precarious jade cup from him, "I don't want to learn, you don't have to demonstrate it again."
