This was not all, he was pleasantly surprised by Lian Mu Su's ability to extend and deepen his understanding of the topics they discussed, which felt like meeting a kindred soul.
He did not treat him as a student, but rather as a young friend, a friend with whom he could converse and share thoughts.
Lian Mu Su smiled gently, bowed deeply, and sincerely said, "Mr. Qin, your praise is too generous. Thanks to your profound benevolence, I have the honor to express my humble opinions, which is a great privilege indeed. I had heard long ago of Mr. Qin's extensive knowledge and, seeing you today, it truly is extraordinary. Every word and phrase from you is a gem, a proverb, from which I benefit greatly and to which I deeply admire."
Minister Jia, standing beside him, could not help but pat Lian Mu Su's shoulder and scowled, "What humble opinions? Lian Mu, you spoke brilliantly, there's no need to be modest."
