It has to be said, Yuan Tiangang's face was incredibly thick. He managed to spin such an awkward situation back around elegantly.
Wu Daozi had been eyeing the food and drooling over it for a while, and upon hearing Yuan's words, he nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes."
Without minding the glances from the crowd around them, Yuan Tiangang pulled Wu Daozi directly to the buffet area. Each took a large plate and began to load it with food—lobsters, abalones, piled high as if they were refugees who hadn't eaten in days. One plate didn't seem enough, so they each took two more. Finally settling down at a nearby table, they wolfed down their feast.
A waiter passed by with drinks, and they simply took the drinks and the tray with them. They continued to eat voraciously while gulping down the fine wine, appearing as if they had not eaten for days and nights.
The crowd around them was dumbfounded. Did these two exhibit any behavior of exemplary teachers?
