"This little flame is burning too quickly!"
Jingzi remembered the time before she and her teacher were here, when they were still outside, away from this small place.
Because the teacher was renowned, those upright men, modest Confucian Scholars, Famous Great Scholars, and even powerful Cultivators from within the Confucian order would seek him out, and sometimes she would not see them for half a year. The teacher was too busy, leaving all the hosting and arranging of meetings to Jingzi. Among those refined and courteous men, even those who had known the teacher for a long time, aside from those former classmates with whom he had a good relationship during their school days, the rest maintained nothing more than a superficial friendship.
The teacher had a strong compulsion for cleanliness; he wouldn't even share his teaware, so why would he... touch a man's head!?
