"Don't follow me, the lesson tonight, Mr. Lin said, would not let you attend." Xia Zhu said to the follower behind her.
"Why not? Mr. Lin didn't refuse my attendance at his lesson?" Wen Ruyu wouldn't be fooled. He might be a gentleman, but he's no fool.
You can't completely distrust a woman's words, but you can't fully trust them either.
"Really, tonight's lesson is truly not suitable for you."
"Not suitable? Why?" Wen Ruyu was even more puzzled. Since it's a medical lesson, he's a doctor, and quite an accomplished one at that, why wouldn't he be allowed to listen?
"Do you really want to listen?"
"Of course, I must attend Mr. Lin's lesson."
"Alright, but whatever you hear tonight, you must keep to yourself, don't mention it to anyone."
"Why is that?"
"Don't ask so many questions. Agree, and I'll let you in. If not, you should go back to the Medical Bureau." Xia Zhu said solemnly.
"I can't tell anyone?"
"Right, not anyone, including your master, Mr. Fu."
