Instructor Li stuttered, "No…"
Xiang Huai placed his hands behind his back and did not speak. He just looked at him.
Instructor Li felt inexplicably guilty. "Well, she was late. I punished her by making her stand in a military posture for half an hour."
Xiang Huai remained silent.
Instructor Li simply told the truth. "Alright. Actually, when she was being punished, she was standing very well and I was very satisfied. In the end, when I told her to rest, her friend said that she had a problem with me and even said that our academic qualifications were not high. Why should we order her around? If she was unconvinced, I wanted her to stand up and accept her position! I wanted her to know that although my academic qualifications are low, I mostly suffered as much as she did! Without someone like me, how could she have a peaceful life?!"
When Xiang Huai heard this, he patted Instructor Li's shoulder and said, "Listen up."
