"I want to continue, Teacher Han. Your classes are beneficial for me too."
"I want to continue as well. Not to mention anything else, the study atmosphere here is good. Even without a teacher, I find value in being here."
"Right, and there's also a five-yuan meal subsidy, isn't there? But now we won't get to eat Teacher Meng's noodles; we'll have to go buy our own food."
"By that logic, Teacher Meng's five-yuan per bowl noodles are worth at least ten yuan…"
