He could not compete with Chu Heng's thick skin.
He grudgingly spat out a few words through clenched teeth and seized the opportunity to leave quickly.

When Huo Zhengming and Elder Zhong approached, they saw several officials leaving with unusual expressions, coincidentally hearing his remarks aloud.
Huo Zhengming was somewhat speechless, and his nagging habit emerged again: "Zi Qiu, you used to be quite humble when speaking with your teacher, didn't you?"
Elder Zhong found his temperament rather interesting: "Zi Qiu's words are not wrong."
"Just like the saying that those who do not share the same path cannot plan together."
"Surely, after today, not many officials will come with fake intentions to befriend Zi Qiu."
