Luhan poured more tea into Sehun's cup and carefully placed the pot onto the small tray. Sehun murmured his gratitude.

"Will that be all, Sir?"

"Well…" Sehun pointed to a single character. "I don't understand this."

He elevated his brow and smiled after observing the character. "In pinyin, it's suŏ. It has a third tone to it, so you start the word normally, but then your tone should deepen before rising again."

"So it's like 'ssuo'?" Sehun inquired vigilantly.

"It's suŏ."

"Ssuŏ."

Realization dawned upon Luhan. Sehun had a lisp.

"That was a great attempt."

Sehun beamed at the praise.
