Zhang Ke threw the rope to one side and went to pick up the plate. She placed it on a chest of drawers that was closest to the head of Ling Tianya's bed.
"Teacher, you sure are intelligent. I knew that nothing would get past you." Zhang Ke picked up a spoon and handed it to Ling Tianya. "You're probably hungry. Eat some food."
Ling Tianya looked at the smooth wooden spoon coldly. "Don't address me as teacher. I'm not your teacher."
Zhang Ke's face was one of shock. Then, she continued, "Don't say that. I've referred to you as teacher for such a long time. As long as you are willing, you are still my teacher."
Ling Tianya laughed coldly. "My assistant is Zhang Ke, and you are not Zhang Ke."
Zhang Ke blinked. "I am Zhang Ke."
"Since it's already come to this, you no longer have to beat around the bush with me, nor do you have to continue to disguise yourself. Tell me your real name."
