"Wait a second." Just as I was opening the door, Han Bing's master called out to me again.
"What's wrong, Uncle Master? Is there something else?" I was puzzled, having been told to leave and then to wait. What on earth was Han Bing's master up to with this sudden enigma?
"I just wanted to remind you to keep the contents of our conversation confidential. Don't mention it to Han Bing, and, right, also not to your master," Han Bing's master said, turning back to me with an additional instruction before emphasizing not to tell my own master, who was also my martial uncle.
"Huh? Auntie, did you just say something to me? Oops, my bad, I shouldn't refer to you as Auntie. You are right to correct me." I was slightly startled but quickly thought of a response.
"Mm, you are a clever child. Go on, take a rest. If you have no other plans, you might stay here for a few days," Han Bing's master said with a satisfied nod, suggesting I stay longer.
