"Ah."
"Ah? There's a punishment, Teacher Li, what kind of punishment?"
He Ya Ru asked with a smile.
She didn't pay much attention to the punishment that Li Shi mentioned, thinking that Teacher Li was just making a joke. But something sounded strange, a faint, short sound that she didn't hear clearly because she was talking.
That was odd.
Li Shi had thought on the spur of the moment that the lady's talent for calligraphy was dim. If he wanted to teach her, he had to be a strict teacher to create high achievers, so he had to be strict and disciplined in his teaching, with clear rewards and punishments.
This was also teaching in accordance with her aptitude.
He paused his meal and thought attentively for a while before saying seriously:
"Sister He, we need to make one thing clear. We are friends on usual days, and you are my sister He, but once it comes to teaching you calligraphy, we must be treated differently. On this matter, I am your teacher, and you are my student."
