Martial Arts Godhood: At the Start, Rebels Asked Me to Be an Undercover Agent

"Is it... a lot?" Zhou Zhengxiong asked curiously.

"I'm currently doing an internship and I earn 5,000 federal dollars a month, while their full-time employees earn over 10,000 a month."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhengxiong immediately showed an envious expression, "No wonder it's the police department, their internship salary is higher than what I've earned working in this underground factory for over ten years."

As the two were talking, they heard a soft sob.

The two turned their heads and saw that it was Qin Fengying's voice.

"Why are you crying over something so happy? Hurry up and hold it in."

"I'm so happy. Wang has really grown up. He's been with us for eight years, suffering with us, and he's finally made something of himself."

"Auntie, please don't say that. If it weren't for you and Uncle taking me in, I don't know where I would be now, and I might not even be alive today."

"Pah, pah, pah! You're so happy today, why are you talking about death? Go and clear the table, we'll eat right away."

"it is good."

Xiao Wang and Zhou Zhengxiong left the kitchen, tidied up the dining table, and then set the food on the table. The family of four sat down around it.

"Do you have any wine at home? We're in a good mood today, let's have a drink," Zhou Zhengxiong asked.

"That's all," Qin Fengying replied.

"Uncle, how about I go buy some? It'll be quick."

"It's alright, it's alright, we're all family, let's have tea instead of wine."

Zhou Zhengxiong gestured for Xiao Wang to sit down, poured a cup of tea for everyone, and picked it up first. "Wang, congratulations on becoming a police officer."

"Uncle, she's an intern."

"That's an employee, an intern. Come on, let's have a toast."

Xiao Wang raised his teacup and clinked it with Zhou Zhengxiong's; Qin Fengying also raised hers and clinked it with Zhou Zhengxiong's.

"Dad, big pot, I want to touch it too." Zhou Xuanyu, his mouth full of cake crumbs, wobbled as he picked up his teacup and said.

"Alright, alright, I'll clink glasses with you, Big Pot."

Xiao Wang raised his teacup and clinked it against Zhou Xuanyu's, then said to Zhou Zhengxiong and Qin Fengying, "Uncle, Aunt, thank you for taking care of me all these years."

After saying that, Xiao Wang drank it down.

"We're all family, what are you saying? Don't be so formal. Come on, let's eat."

As Qin Fengying spoke, she first placed a piece of mutton into Xiao Wang's bowl, and then placed a piece into Zhou Xuanyu's bowl.

"Auntie, Uncle, you eat too, I can help myself."

Zhou Xuanyu put the mutton in his mouth, chewed it a couple of times, and his eyes lit up. "Mom, I want more."

This was the first time he had ever eaten mutton, and it was also one of the few times that Zhou Zhengxiong and Qin Fengying had ever eaten mutton in their lives.

Feeling happy and enjoying the abundant food, the whole family ate to their heart's content.

After dinner, Xiao Wang helped Qin Fengying wash up and get ready. The family sat on the sofa, listened to the radio, and chatted.

The main purpose was to listen to Xiao Wang talk about his recent situation.

After chatting for a while, Zhou Zhengxiong got up and went inside. When he came out, he handed Xiao Wang a bundle of Federal Dollars.

"Wang, this is the tuition fee that your uncle and aunt have scraped together for you over the past few days. It totals 13,000 Federal Dollars. I have to go to work early tomorrow morning, so I'm afraid I'll forget. Take this first, and we'll figure out the rest later."

Xiao Wang looked at the bundle of Federal Currency; it was all in denominations of one thousand, clearly collected little by little.

"Uncle, Aunt, you can keep this money for yourselves. Don't worry about the tuition; I've almost raised enough."

"That's about enough? Isn't Yuanwu's tuition 100,000 Federal Dollars? You've only been at the police station for a short time, it's not enough."

"Uncle, besides my salary at the police station, I also get bonuses for catching fugitives. In addition, the master at the martial arts school will also introduce some jobs. It shouldn't be a problem to raise the tuition fees before the start of the Yuanwu school."

Xiao Wang had actually already raised enough money for tuition, but if he told the truth about how he had obtained so much money in such a short time, they would definitely investigate further.

"Also," Xiao Wang said, taking out two thousand-dollar Federal Dollars from his pocket and handing one to Zhou Zhengxiong and one to Qin Fengying.

The couple stared blankly at Xiao Wang.

"Uncle, Auntie, this is my internship salary, my first salary ever. Please accept it, as it's a way for you to share this joy with me."

Zhou Zhengxiong initially wanted to decline, but after hearing Xiao Wang's words, he took the initiative to accept, saying, "Wang, you've really grown up."

Qin Fengying didn't take it. "Wang, keep it for yourself. Buy some good food at the martial arts school and take good care of yourself."

"Auntie, you absolutely have to accept this money. It's not much, but it's from my heart."

Qin Fengying wanted to continue declining, but Zhou Zhengxiong immediately said, "You know, this is just a child's sentiment."

Qin Fengying looked at Xiao Wang, her eyes moist, and accepted the thousand Federal Coins. "You've really grown up. You're even starting to take care of us now. You've suffered so much with us all these years..."

"Oh dear, why are you crying again? You always manage to turn happy things into sad stories. Just hold it in."

Xiao Wang patted Qin Fengying on the shoulder. He knew that she was not only talking about the hardships Xiao Wang had endured living with them over the years, but also about the hardships she had endured herself over the years.

Qin Fengying, who was already thirty years old and still childless, adopted Xiao Wang under the pressure of mandatory federal tax deductions. However, their life remained difficult. After giving birth to Zhou Xuanyu, she had to quit her job to take care of the child. The burden of supporting the whole family fell on Zhou Zhengxiong's shoulders. Xiao Wang was well aware of the hardships they faced.

"Auntie, life will get better and better from now on."

"Yes, it's getting better and better."

"Big brother, I want money too."

"Are you asking for trouble? Do you even know what money is? How much is this?" Qin Fengying asked Zhou Xuanyu, holding up a 1,000-yuan Federal Coin.

"The stick goes round and round."

"What? You little brat, hahahahaha."

Zhou Xuanyu's words made the whole family laugh so hard they were doubled over.

The next morning, when Xiao Wang got up, Zhou Zhengxiong had already gone to work, Zhou Xuanyu was still sleeping, and Qin Fengying had prepared breakfast and placed it on the table. She was busy in the kitchen at the time.

"You're up?"

"Um."

"Eat the breakfast on the table before you leave."

After washing up and eating breakfast, Xiao Wang prepared to go to school.

Qin Fengying saw Xiao Wang off to the door, saying, "Come back and visit more often when you have time, and give me a call even if you don't have time."

"it is good."

Xiao Wang finished tidying up, opened the door and went out, just in time to see several neighbors coming downstairs in the corridor.

"Oh, Xiao Wang's back? It's been so long."

Hello, aunties.

"Good, good, good, still so handsome."

At this moment, Qin Fengying stepped forward and said, "He's very busy right now. He's interning at the police station and doesn't have time to go home."

"Didn't he not even graduate high school yet? He's already doing an internship..."

Before one of the women could finish speaking, another woman quickly interjected, "You mean an internship at the police station? The police station?"

"Isn't that right? Even when you're interning elsewhere, you don't miss out on time to go home."

The women outside the door looked at each other and re-examined Xiao Wang.

After smiling at Qin Fengying, he quickly went downstairs.

After going downstairs, he said, "You're kidding, high school students can't possibly intern at the police station?"

"He's definitely exaggerating. Even graduates from military, police, and martial arts academies might not be able to get in, let alone him? A high school student?"

Xiao Wang bid farewell to Qin Fengying and came downstairs. He overheard a few words from the aunties but didn't say anything.

"It seems that parents and aunts everywhere are the same; they like to subtly show off their children."
