Qin Gengyun finished speaking and indeed turned to leave.
Xia Qinglian was stunned, and in haste shouted:
"Stop right there!"
Qin Gengyun turned back, respectfully cupped his hands and said, "Senior, what advice do you have for me?"
Xia Qinglian pointed at him with her hand: "Why are you so ungrateful?!"
Perhaps due to the change in appearance and form, not fearing recognition, there was a more carefree feeling in her heart, less of the deliberate coolness and restraint Qiu Zhihe had when facing Qin Gengyun.
Unconsciously, a hint of playfulness had crept into Xia Qinglian's tone.
Qin Gengyun seriously said, "Precisely because I know gratitude and grace, I wish to apprentice under you, so you need not worry that I will forget your teachings once I have learned well, wasting your efforts in teaching me."
Xia Qinglian snorted coldly, "I teach as I wish, where's the need for reciprocation?"
