1553 Little Fella’s Not Bad 3 (1/2)

Closing the wine cellar's door, Jun Wu Xie stood right before Su Ya, not knowing how the Queen who loved wine more than her life was going to do to torment her further today.

Su Ya looked at Jun Wu Xie, her gaze slowly measuring up the little youth completely from head to toe. After a momentary silence, she finally opened her mouth to say.

”Kneel.”

Jun Wu Xie was taken aback.

Su Ya lifted up her eyebrow in an arch. ”Acknowledging a Master needs one to undergo the rites by kneeling. Do you even need this woman to teach you that?”

[Rites to acknowledge a Master?]

Jun Wu Xie naturally knew that after going through the rites, Su Ya would then become her Master and not just as a Teacher. That difference in the form of address alone made a world of difference in what their meanings entailed.

[Does that mean that Su Ya was willing to accept her as a disciple under Su Ya's own name?]

”What, you're unwilling to?” Not seeing Jun Wu Xie showing any reaction after some time passed, Su Ya said rather impatiently.

Jun Wu Xie immediately fell to her knees before Su Ya. If it had been someone else, they might have harboured hatred against Su Ya for deliberately making things difficult from them the past few weeks. But Jun Wu Xie had been sharp enough to detect the changes that had come over her meridians which had started to ever since she was made to spend her time in the wine cellar. No matter what kind of motives Su Ya held, Su Ya had truly helped her.

”My Master above me, please accept a bow from your disciple.” Jun Wu Xie said formally to perform the rite of acknowledging her Master. Towards people who treated her sincerely with their hearts, Jun Wu Xie never stinged on her respect towards them.

”Recognising me as your Master will require you to serve me tea as a form of acknowledgement but this woman here does not appreciate the taste of that. Just give me that jar of wine on the floor over there.” Su Ya said.

Jun Wu Xie stretched her hand out and pulled it over to her, before handing it over to Su Ya.

That was the wine that Tian Ze had sent over and Su Ya had not even had the time to open its seal.

Su Ya accepted the jar and hugging the jar, she took a long good pull of that fragrant wine and wiped the back of her hand across her lips, her face breaking into a wide smile.

”Great!”

It was not known whether that exclamation of approval was for the wine that Tian Ze had brought or for the fact that she had just gotten herself a brand new little disciple.
