Zhuang Zhimeng didn't know why they were laughing, and blinked her big eyes, waiting for someone to explain it to her.
Liu Huaying told her.
"Either way is fine. Zhimeng can continue to call him Uncle Shi, or she can call him Master Shi. It's just a title, so do whatever you like!"
Zhuang Zhimeng understood then; she still preferred to call him Uncle Shi, just like she always had.
It was already very late, so Zhuang Zhimeng and An Qingbai said goodbye to Shang Jingshu and Liu Huaying and went home.
On the way back, Zhuang Zhimeng remembered An Qingbai making fun of her earlier, and punched him on the shoulder.

"Okay, I'll only tell you!"

"Jiashu, let me tell you, it's all thanks to Zhimeng and Qingbai who came over last night. They found you a village doctor and gave you the fever reducer that Qingbai brought. Otherwise, it would have been really dangerous!"
"Huaying, I'm sorry to have worried you!"
"As long as you're doing well, that's all that matters. After all, it's just the two of us left to depend on each other!"

"By the way, Zhimeng and Qingbai have agreed to become our apprentices, so our skills will have successors!"
