Qin Wenzheng looked up and was stunned when he saw that Gu Dajiang did not move.

Gu Yundong tugged at his sleeve. Gu Dajiang suddenly came back to his senses and hurriedly cupped his hands in greeting. Then, he said, “Please inform your master that Gu Dajiang has come to visit.”

Qin Wenzheng: “…”

Gu Yundong was speechless.

“Ahem, well, Father.” Gu Yundong recalled that her father had addressed Yunshu’s teacher as Old Master yesterday. She did not know whether to laugh or cry. “This is Yunshu’s teacher.”

Gu Dajiang’s eyes widened as he blurted out, “Isn’t Yunshu’s teacher Old Master?”

“Dad, who told you he’s an old man?”

Gu Dajiang paused. “But didn’t you say that he was the top scholar a few years ago? I read the court newspaper. Every top scholar for nearly 15 years is above 4.0 years old. But he’s only…”

He paused and suddenly thought of something. He frowned and said, “There’s a young genius. He did become the top scholar a few years ago. But didn’t that young man surnamed Qin die of illness?”

Qin Wenzheng touched his nose, coughed lightly, and said, “If I’m not wrong, I should be that young man surnamed Qin, Qin Wenzheng.”

Gu Dajiang suddenly looked at him, his eyes burning. However, his body didn’t move, as if he was frozen.

“Father?” Qin Wenzheng should be quite normal-looking, right? Was he that scary?

Qin Wenzheng could not help but look at Gu Yundong and explain, “Previously, I did resign for some reasons. There were rumors that I had passed away from illness. I didn’t expect this rumor to spread to the Yongning Prefecture. You misunderstood.”

“You, you, you’re really Qin Wenzheng?” After a long while, Gu Dajiang finally reacted. His throat was extremely dry, and his voice was hoarse.

Qin Wenzheng nodded. “I’m indeed Qin Wenzheng. Miss Gu can testify.”

Gu Dajiang turned his head and stared at his daughter in a daze. Seeing her nod, he couldn’t help but ask, “Why didn’t you tell me that Yunshu’s teacher is called Qin Wenzheng?”

“I’m afraid Father will say that it’s impolite for me to call the teacher by his name.”

There were many rules for scholars, especially when it came to respecting teachers. Qin Wenzheng was Gu Yunshu’s teacher, so it was better for her not to be too casual.

Who knew that her father would misunderstand that the other party was an old man?

Gu Yundong secretly laughed. When she looked up again, she saw her father looking at Qin Wenzheng excitedly. The light in his eyes was almost blinding. “Master Qin, Mr. Qin, Mr. Qin, I didn’t expect to see you again in my lifetime. This is simply great. You’ve even become my son’s master. I, I… The essay of the master’s palace examination was excerpted by someone. I was lucky to be able to read it and admire your literary talent. At that time, I thought that if I could meet you one day and ask you for guidance on the essay, I would have no regrets in my life. I didn’t expect it to be true…”

Gu Yundong widened her eyes. No, Father, the other party is a scheming person without any integrity. He is not worthy of your admiration. Wake up quickly. “Father, well, you’ve seen Yunshu’s teacher. Shouldn’t we go?”

Gu Dajiang didn’t even turn around. “No, no, no. I still have a lot to talk to you about. If you don’t mind, can you treat me to a cup of tea?”

“I don’t mind.” Qin Wenzheng glanced at Gu Yundong and immediately agreed. Gu Yundong felt terrible. Father, where’s your composure? You’re already so old. Don’t chase after celebrities anymore, right?
