The next day, morning.
Han Li finished his morning exercises and sat on the bed in a daze.
Before long, a pair of jade arms stretched from behind him, encircling him. Ji Mingyue nestled against Han Li's back, her substantial conscience weighing down on him as she asked softly,
"Husband, what are you doing?"
Ji Mingyue was somewhat puzzled; she noticed that her husband was a little different today.
Han Li caught Ji Mingyue's teasing hand and said with a smile, "Mingyue, I am following the ancient teachings and engaging in self-reflection."
The ancients said: Reflect on oneself three times daily.
This was something Han Li had only recently started. Each day after completing his tasks, he would engage in at least three moments of self-reflection. Only through disciplined introspection could one continuously improve oneself.
Of course, this wasn't because Han Li was in a period of sagacity.
