"Madam, what are you talking about? If Lord Du wasn't sincere about teaching me, why would he be so strict with me? Am I that unreasonable? Although he hasn't formally accepted me as a disciple, in my heart, I've already taken him as my teacher! Forget about scolding me, if he were to hit me—" Wang Yongzhu stopped here, noticing a piece of clothing peeking from the door, indicating that Imperial Doctor Du was eavesdropping.
She winked at Lady Qi, gesturing towards the door, then chuckled, "If he hits me, of course, I would run—"
Before she finished speaking, Imperial Doctor Du stormed in from the door: "It sounds insincere! You claim to take me as your teacher, yet you would run if I scold or hit you? What kind of student is that?"
Wang Yongzhu was speechless, if not for the fact that Imperial Doctor Du was elderly, she would have asked, "Imperial Doctor Du, are you out of your mind?"
Even if my own father wanted to hit me, I wouldn't just stand there and take it, would I?
