"Sigh. When taking on a disciple, character is indeed the most important thing," Gu Qingyu said slowly after a moment of contemplation. "I've even been betrayed by friends who went through thick and thin with me. Perhaps they thought betraying me would bring them greater benefits. But is personal gain all there is to this world? What about loyalty and friendship?"
"Indeed. What value did they place on loyalty?" Sun Haoran sighed. "Even though I was betrayed by one of my apprentices, I have many others who are good people. So while I was disappointed, I never fell into despair. Now I've taken Nuanyue on as my final disciple. If I teach her well, she can become a renowned doctor one day."
Hearing this, Gu Qingyu's respect for Sun Haoran grew. He said, "Exactly. We can be disappointed, but we must not despair. After all, we are still surrounded by many loyal people. If we were to give up in despair, we would be failing not only ourselves but also those who have stood by us."
