“This disciple is of course willing to assist Bai-laoshi,” Xiao-Binghe said with a pout, “But this disciple would much rather be Shizun’s assistant.” Shen Qingqiu hid her smile behind her tea cup. “Assisting your instructors would be assisting me, Binghe. It would be a relief knowing the class is in your capable hands. This master will certainly survive a few hours a day without you here tending house.” “This disciple can continue to assist Shizun while Xiao-Binghe is gone,” Luo Binghe said, unable to resist cutting in. His double glared at him, but Shen Qingqiu only smiled. “Ah, with both of you helping, I fear there won’t be any work left!” Shen Qingqiu’s dark eyes twinkled with mirth. “Is that your plan, to let your old master grow lazy? To take on all the peak’s duties and let this master lounge about like some spoiled empress?” “Yes,” both Luo Binghes said instantly, struck by the delight of that mental image.
