The ceremony of paying respect to the master made the people around him feel sleepy.
After all, not everyone can watch two bored guys perform such a complicated etiquette without falling asleep. But fortunately, it was simplified and only took more than 40 minutes, less than an hour.
Otherwise, someone might really fall asleep on the spot.
After the banquet, the group of people did not disperse. It was not easy to have such an opportunity, and everyone tried their best to make friends with someone who would be beneficial to their future.
After all, they are all friends of the Qiu family, which means they are all rich and powerful people, and they are also people worth making friends with.
At this time, there were many people standing around Yu Sheng, and they all wanted to make friends with Yu Sheng, a "mysterious" person.
Not far from Yu Sheng, Qiu Ziling sighed and walked aside. She was completely confused about the current situation. The person she thought she was going to marry suddenly became her master.
At this time, her best friend Chen Yihan came over. She was a well-behaved rich girl.
She walked up to Qiu Ziling holding a red wine glass and said with a polite smile, "Ziling, congratulations on your successful apprenticeship. Why don't you look happy?"
After a brief pause, Qiu Ziling came back to her senses. She looked at Chen Yihan, sighed, and said, "Stop talking. Look at my unreliable master. Oh... It's so embarrassing..."
Chen Yihan looked in the direction of Yu Sheng, only to see that Yu Sheng was socializing. Apart from his attire, everything about him was just an ordinary social event, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
But she is also a family member. In addition to being good friends with Qiu Ziling, she also wants to get information about Yu Sheng. She said politely, "That's great! But Ziling, what does your master do? You just defeated your master for so long, and we still don't understand."
At this time, a young and handsome guy came over. He was also their usual playmate Guo Jie. Chen Yihan continued, "Yes, I have the same doubt. Well, I'm sorry, two beautiful ladies. I wonder if I would have the honor to have a drink with you two."
"Guo Jie!?" Qiu Ziling and Chen Yihan were both stunned, looking at this man in wonder. Qiu Ziling said puzzledly, "Didn't your father give you a prescription from a Chinese studies master? How come you are free today? It's really unexpected."
Guo Jie sighed and said helplessly, "Don't mention it. That old guy forced me to memorize books every day. From the time I was born till now, I have never memorized so many books in these few months. I finally found a chance to slip out. By the way, Zi Ling, is that guy named Yu Sheng really your master? What are you learning from him? He looks so young and doesn't seem like someone with real skills. I'm afraid your father was fooled!"
"Tsk!" Qiu Ziling curled her lips. How could her father be fooled? But after the two asked her this, she really realized that she was almost confused by her apprenticeship. She really didn't know what she was going to learn. She also said with some confusion: "I don't know what to learn either?"
Several people looked at each other, and Guo Jie said in disbelief: "No way. As his apprentice, you don't even know what to learn? You are such a speechless apprentice..."
Giving Guo Jie a blank look, Qiu Ziling said unyieldingly, "When you were tied to Fang Zizhong, you didn't know what to learn. I remember some people took two months to realize they were studying medicine."
With his face flushed, Guo Jie quickly argued, "Who knew that the old man had such a weird personality? You said he wanted to study medicine, so he studied medicine! He insisted that I meditate every day and go to the farmland when I have nothing to do. If I could guess that he was studying medicine, I would be a god. But it's still based on my experience, why don't you go and ask?"
After thinking carefully, Qiu Ziling nodded and said, "Alright! Otherwise, if this guy teaches me some random stuff, I won't know whether I should learn it or not. Looking at the portrait of the master makes me feel so dishonest."
Having said that, Qiu Ziling hurriedly walked towards Yu Sheng.
Yu Sheng was drinking with the people around him at this moment. These people might all be his clients in the future, so it would be good to get to know them better now.
Suddenly, Qiu Ziling said arrogantly: "Hey who? What are you going to teach me?"
The people around him fell silent. Yu Sheng's eyes twitched. Of course, he couldn't lose his dignity in such a situation. He said solemnly, "Call me Master!"
"What a crap master? I don't even know what you taught me. Do you really think that if I take you as my master you will be my master?" Qiu Ziling said with a pout.
At this time, Qiu Xiongyi had already left because of something, so she could finally stop being polite to Yu Sheng. The eldest lady's temper was fully exposed.
The people around snickered, waiting to see Yu Sheng's joke. It was obvious that they knew Qiu Ziling's character very well. She was just an uneducated young lady.
After taking a breath, Yu Sheng looked at Qiu Ziling and said, "I can teach you anything, or I can teach you nothing. Today I will teach you the first thing, respect your teacher!"
As he spoke, Yu Sheng took a step forward. After all, he was a leopard-level great success person, infinitely close to leopard-level perfection.
His speed was so fast that a little girl with no training could not detect it at all.
She was about to grab her shoulders and tie her up as punishment. However, when her hand touched Qiu Ziling's body and she hadn't grabbed it yet, Guo Jie made a move and grabbed Yu Sheng's arm with one hand.
"Oh!" Yu Sheng was slightly stunned. He didn't use much strength. But the fact that Guo Jie was able to grab his hand also proved that he really had some skills.
"What happened?" Qiu Ziling stared blankly at what was happening in front of her. She didn't react at all.
Guo Jie chuckled and said, "My friend, you can't touch my good sister casually. She is the eldest daughter of the Qiu family. She is my friend, Guo Jie!"
After struggling for a while, Yu Sheng frowned slightly. Guo Jie did not intend to let go.
Taking a deep breath, Yu Sheng retracted his hand, and Guo Jie let go. He glanced at Guo Jie, and then at Chen Yihan behind him. Yu Sheng said calmly, "It's not your turn to interfere with me teaching my apprentice a lesson. As the saying goes, a teacher is a father for life. You must understand such a simple truth. It's only natural for me to teach her a lesson."
"But uncle won't hit Zi Ling either." Guo Jie said handsomely, "Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have some skills. This is a foggy city."
With a knowing smile, Yu Sheng looked at Guo Jie and suddenly realized that he was an enemy, not a friend.
Glancing at Qiu Ziling, Yu Sheng scolded, "Come here quickly. You don't even know you're being used as a gun. It's a shame that my disciple has such a low IQ."
"What did you say? Guo Jie is my friend. I tell you, you can eat whatever you want but you can't say whatever you want. What a bullshit master. You are my master if I recognize you. If I don't recognize you, you are just a passerby. Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because my father respects you. If I force you to the limit, I believe I will make you unable to survive in the fog." Seeing that Yu Sheng actually said something bad about Guo Jie, Qiu Ziling directly retorted with loyalty.
