Although this was the case, Ding Ling still did not readily agree to Qu Yang's request.
Seeing Ding Ling's prudence, Qu Yang was not angry but rather pleased, and he smiled slightly:
"A young man who's not arrogant, composed and competent, decisive in his actions, yet extremely gentle toward the little girl."
He praised:
"To behave in such a detailed manner—it's truly rare."
Saying this, he changed the subject and reached into his robe with some difficulty, pulling out a few secret manuals and handed them to Ding Ling:
"These are my supreme skills and all my lifelong learnings, as well as the musical score 'The Smiling, Proud Wanderer' that I created together with Liu Zhengfeng. I'm giving them all to you."
"This…"
Ding Ling hesitated:
"I can't accept without earning it."
He wasn't being false; he feared that Qu Yang would present him with a condition he couldn't fulfill.
That's how he was.
For those who treat him kindly, anything he promised, he'd make sure to deliver!
