Xia Wei smiled and glanced at He Shi. "Thank you, Teacher He."
"What's there to thank me for? When your sister-in-law went out today, she repeatedly instructed me to take good care of you. She knew that your foot was injured and even asked me to tell you to come to my home for dinner when you're free. She'll make pig trotter soup for you to nourish yourself!" He Shi said quickly as he carefully supported Xia Wei.
As he spoke, he looked up at the emcee on the stage. When he turned around, he continued, "You're not allowed to decline. You said that you wanted to come last time and stood us up. This won't do! You have to agree."
Xia Wei was helpless when she heard that. She replied obediently as she walked, "Okay."
As the award-winning guests did not bring microphones on stage, He Shi did not guard against anyone else when he whispered to Xia Wei. No one else knew about this conversation except the two of them.
