Zhang Deming waved his hand. "That's enough. How many times have I told you? There's no need to be so formal around me."
Qin Shizhong smiled and said, "I understand."
But he remained just as respectful toward Zhang Deming, who simply shook his head. Everyone's personality was different, so he didn't press the issue.
'As long as he's willing to act this way and is sincere about it... and even if he isn't, as long as it doesn't show, I don't need to worry about it.'
It was perfectly normal for someone like Qin Shizhong, who had struggled for decades at the bottom, to have his own unyielding principles.
Zhang Deming looked at him and said, "Go and get ready. Your aptitude isn't the best, so it would be wise to study the Powerful Ape Transformation and Dragon and Snake Transformation in advance and familiarize yourself with them."
Qin Shizhong replied respectfully, "I understand."
