Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 296 You found such a shameless person?

"What?!"

The old man's words caused everyone in the apartment to gasp in surprise, and Zeng Xiaoxian almost jumped off his chair.

Zeng Xiaoxian forced a polite but stiff smile: "Grandpa, there's no need for us to spar during the New Year."

Just kidding, this person in front of you is no ordinary old man; he is the master of Hu Yifei, this female devil.

Even though he is old and frail now, and his fighting ability is not as good as before, dealing with me is still a piece of cake.

No comparison, absolutely no comparison.

Anyone who tries to outdo him is a fool!

"It's just moving your hands and feet, what does it have to do with whether it's the New Year or not?"

"You young people nowadays are just lazy. Back in our day, we trained hard in the coldest winter and hottest summer, practicing all year round without stopping."

The old man sighed with regret, knowing that he couldn't use past standards to judge today's young people.

Moreover, precisely because practicing martial arts is so tiring, who would be willing to learn such arduous skills nowadays?

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore."

The old man rubbed his hands together, eager to try: "Come on, let's not go all out, just spar with this old man for a few moves, let's warm up."

Don't be fooled by the old man's cheerful demeanor; he's actually suffering inside.

From before the Lunar New Year until now, he has been either beaten or verbally abused.

Ironically, it was his father who hit him, and his wife who scolded him.

Faced with these two living ancestors, he has been unable to fight back even when beaten or scolded these past few days, feeling incredibly frustrated.

I'd love to find someone to practice my martial arts with, but I just can't find anyone during the Chinese New Year.

The old man originally wanted Yifei to spar with him, but now Zeng Xiaoxian, who claimed to have defeated all the karate masters in Japan, had appeared, which immediately aroused his curiosity.

Even if I'm too old to use my real skills, it would still be good to see how this Wise Egg Superman works.

Compared to the old man's eagerness to hunt, Zeng Xiaoxian's eyebrows were almost curled together.

Keep the old man company while he warms up?

Ha ha.

[In his inner world, Zeng Xiaoxian sat cross-legged in mid-air, his eyes drooping.]

He looked down, somewhat numbly, and saw another Zeng Xiaoxian lying on the ground, unconscious.

Meanwhile, Yifei and the old man were anxiously performing CPR and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation on Zeng Xiaoxian, who was lying on the ground.

[Please don't misunderstand, Hu Yifei was responsible for chest compressions, while the person responsible for artificial respiration...]

[Zeng Xiaoxian, floating in mid-air, turned his head away, unwilling to witness this excessively offensive scene.]

Let's spar a bit, just the two of us, to warm up.

[These tricks will warm you up, but they'll make me feel cold!!!]

In the end, Zeng Xiaoxian could only watch helplessly as his resuscitation efforts failed, and Yifei and the old man covered him with a white sheet.

He remained seated cross-legged in mid-air, his eyes drooping. Amidst the sighs and lamentations of Yifei and the old man, Xiaoxian called out in a completely emotionless voice.

[Help! Someone come quick!]

I think I can still be saved!

Zeng Xiaoxian, snapping out of his fantasy, couldn't help but shiver.

He looked at the old man, and his face instinctively showed his most common fawning smile.

"Grandpa, it's not that I didn't want to warm up with you, it's just... I strained my back just now. You can ask Yifei and Nanfeng if you don't believe me."

"How about... we have a verbal duel?"

Wan Yu chuckled upon hearing this.

To have someone who can write Chu Zhongtian as Lin Danda engage in a literary battle with you, Teacher Zeng, you are truly a genius.

Sure enough, the old man grunted a few times.

"I'm just an old man with no education, and you, a double PhD, are trying to outwit me with your knowledge? Isn't that just bullying me!"

Zeng Xiaoxian was on the verge of tears.

If it's considered bullying the other person to compete in a battle of wits between the two of them, then isn't it also bullying the other person to compete in a battle of wits between the old man and himself?

No, it's bullying the dead.

"Grandpa, how about..."

"Or what? Or what?"

The old man glanced at Zeng Xiaoxian: "I just thought you were a decent kid, but now you're acting all fussy and clingy."

Yifei nodded in complete agreement; the old man's description of Zeng Xiaoxian was indeed very apt.

The old man continued, "Give me a straight answer: whether you're coming or not. If you want to compete, then compete; if not, then firmly refuse. Why say so much nonsense?"

Seeing this, Zeng Xiaoxian could only desperately try to wink at Yifei, hoping she would say a few words for him, but in the end he only got a slight nod and a firm look from Yifei.

Xiao Xian was stunned for a moment.

Yifei means... that she wants to have a match with the old man?

Does she really want to see me get beaten up?

Or perhaps Yifei wanted to take this opportunity to carry out the plan she had mentioned at the village entrance.

In other words, he would expose his true colors through this competition, and then pin all the fabricated charges on himself.

In this way, the two of them can stage a dramatic argument and breakup in front of Yifei's family, and she can be completely free.

Thinking of this, Zeng Xiaoxian's eyes visibly dimmed.

He looked at the old man and nodded gently in agreement, "Alright, I'll spar with you a few times, old man."

The people in the apartment were immediately horrified.

The old man then laughed heartily and said, "Good, good, good, that's more like a man's spirit."

"It's too small here, let's practice in the yard."

Before the old man had even finished speaking, he had already strode swiftly towards the courtyard.

"Old man just won't admit he's old. He's already so old, but he still wants to compete with young guys."

Grandpa Yuan snorted coldly, "Let's go too, and see how he gets beaten up by the young people and runs away with his tail between his legs."

"it is good."

As they spoke, Yifei's parents and maternal grandparents also walked into the courtyard.

Before leaving, Aunt Yuan specifically instructed Xiaoxian: "Xiaolian, Grandpa Chu is getting old after all, so just keep it simple and don't get serious."

Zeng Xiaoxian smiled and said, "Auntie, don't worry, we're all family. Just like Grandpa said, we're just warming up."

"That's good."

Aunt Yuan clenched her fists to cheer on Xiao Xian.

"come on!"

When Yifei's parents and grandparents went to the courtyard, the crowd, who were stunned by Zeng Xiaoxian's nod of agreement, quickly surrounded them.

"Teacher Zeng, what were you thinking when you agreed to spar with my grandfather?"

"Even if he is careful and doesn't hurt you, what about your reputation later?"

"Or have you just awakened a unique fetish: enjoying getting a good beating from an old man?"

Nanfeng couldn't understand why Teacher Zeng, who had always been so timid, would suddenly make such a decision.

Zeng Xiaoxian pouted, saying nonchalantly, "Anyway, it's only this one time. At worst, I'll just take a taxi and leave."

"As long as I don't hear people talking about me, I'm not ashamed."

"Zeng Xiaoxian, are you sick?!" Yifei glared angrily at Zeng Xiaoxian.

"What's gotten into you? Do you suddenly want to get beaten up? If you want to get beaten up, you can come to me!"

"If you challenge the old man to a duel and he finds out you lied to him, he'll give you at least a black eye!"

"You still want to take a taxi and leave? What am I supposed to do if you take a taxi and leave? Stay here and get interrogated by them?"

Zeng Xiaoxian paused, then reached out and grabbed Yifei, who was angrily trying to stand up and teach him a lesson.

"Wait, didn't you tell me to agree to spar with the old man?"

Yifei looked completely bewildered: "When did I tell you to agree to spar with the old man?"

She's not a pervert, why would she enjoy watching Zeng Xiaoxian being abused?

Even if Zeng Xiaoxian is to be abused, she has to do it herself.

Zeng Xiaoxian was completely stunned. He stammered, "Then, then you just nodded slightly at me, and your eyes were so firm."

"Isn't this a way of telling me to agree?"

"fart!"

Yifei was so angry with Zeng Xiaoxian that she almost slammed her hand on the chair: "I was telling you not to hesitate, not to overthink it, just refuse directly and frankly."

She pressed her index finger against Zeng Xiaoxian's temple and complained: "Zeng Xiaoxian, please use your brain."

"The old man isn't a bandit or a tyrant. If you just refuse, do you think he'll pick up a chair and force you to do it?"

"Besides, there are so many people in our apartment building. Even if you refuse, they can still put in a good word for you and smooth things over."

"Why did you choose the stupidest way to do something so simple?"

Yifei looked at Zeng Xiaoxian with exasperation: "The old man is a very serious person. If you don't agree, nothing will happen to him, but if you do agree, he will definitely fight you."

"Have you thought about what comfortable position you'll use to fall down later?"

"what!"

Upon hearing the devastating news, Zeng Xiaoxian clutched his head in his hands and cried out in anguish, "What am I supposed to do now?"

"What to do? Just deal with it!"

Yifei glared at him angrily. He had already agreed, so what could she do?

If all else fails, she'll just have to admit that it was her vanity and competitiveness that gave Zeng Xiaoxian's resume that little bit of gold.

Anyway, I'm the family's darling, so they won't scold me too harshly.

We can't let that bastard come all this way only to slink back home in disgrace, can we?

Although this bitch is heartless and ungrateful, Hu Yifei is still very loyal.

Yes, they're loyal!

She hummed a few times, then walked towards the courtyard without looking back.

"Yifei".

Seeing Yifei walk away, Zeng Xiaoxian leaned back in his chair dejectedly.

He looked at Nanfeng and the others listlessly: "So what should I do now? I can't really have to fight the old man, can I?"

Xiao Xian's eyes lit up, as if he had come up with a brilliant idea: "What if I pretend to have a stomachache and need to go to the toilet later..."

"Given my father's personality, he'll definitely wait until you've finished using the toilet before we compete."

Nanfeng joked, "Teacher Zeng, you've come all this way, you probably don't want to spend all your time in Yifei's bathroom, do you?"

"If stomach pain isn't enough... what about leg cramps, like calf cramps?"

Zeng Xiaoxian asked hopefully, "Or eyelid spasm, duodenal ulcer, or stomach perforation would all work."

Nanfeng shook his head, not believing that Teacher Zeng's methods were useful.

You agreed to it and then got sick. Do you really think the old man is stupid?

No, the old man doesn't seem to be very smart.

But Grandpa Yuan and Grandma Fang are truly shrewd; how could they not see through your little scheme?

Then, the group tried to think of a solution for Teacher Zeng.

However, things happened too suddenly, and they had too little time. No one had a good way to ensure Teacher Zeng's safe escape while also saving face.

"Sigh, I'll go to the courtyard again to buy you some more time. How you do it is up to you."

Nanfeng, who had been having trouble sleeping these past few days, felt his head was foggy. After thinking for a while, he simply gave up thinking altogether and became an assistant.

Nanfeng patted Zeng Xiaoxian on the shoulder: "Teacher Zeng, take care."

The remaining people exchanged glances and offered their sincerest blessings to Teacher Zeng.

"Take care of yourself."

"strong."

My condolences.

"Take it easy."

Seeing that everyone had left, Zeng Xiaoxian leaned back in his chair and began to think carefully.

Is there any way to finish this play without getting beaten up?

……

Nanfeng didn't even need to buy Zeng Xiaoxian much time; he had already confidently walked into the courtyard.

"Grandpa, I'm ready."

As Zeng Xiaoxian spoke, he assumed a Wing Chun starting stance.

Seeing Zeng Xiaoxian's determined look, Yifei hesitated.

Judging from that scoundrel's expression, he must have come up with some idea.

Should I confess now or not?

Just as Yifei was hesitating, Zeng Xiaoxian winked at her.

After thinking about it, she decided to let Zeng Xiaoxian try to solve it himself.

Even if we fail, I'll just stand by him and bear the consequences.

Seeing this, the old man nodded and smiled with satisfaction: "Your energy and spirit look pretty good, but your starting stance is too weak."

"But we're just stretching our muscles, there's really no need to take it too seriously."

As he spoke, the old man also assumed a starting stance.

At this moment, Wanyu somehow produced a small red flag, which she placed horizontally between Zeng Xiaoxian and the old man, and shouted loudly.

"Three, two, one, go!"

Zeng Xiaoxian gritted his teeth, took a step forward, and rushed forward at top speed.

The old man frowned, staring intently at Zeng Xiaoxian's unsteady lower body.

[Unsteady footwork, too far forward, weak lower body, stiff limbs... This guy thinks he can take down all the top Japanese karate fighters?]

Has Japanese karate really degenerated to this state?

The old man was still frowning in thought when Zeng Xiaoxian sprinted to his side in just a few steps.

Even though Zeng Xiaoxian's stamina is very poor, his burst speed as an adult male in a short period of time cannot be ignored.

The old man was about to step forward, raise his hand to retaliate, and also to probe Zeng Xiaoxian's background.

The result was something that shocked everyone.

Zeng Xiaoxian's waving fist and his entire body froze not far away. It was inappropriate for the old man to keep his hand raised, nor was it appropriate to hit him.

What is this kid up to?

"what!"

Zeng Xiaoxian gritted his teeth and shouted, as if he had used up all his strength.

But as he exerted all his strength, he was instead forced back as if he had been struck by a gust of wind.

Zeng Xiaoxian retreated repeatedly until he fell to the ground in an extremely exaggerated manner.

He looked at the old man with surprise, then cupped his hands in praise.

"The old man has amazing internal strength!"

Zeng Xiaoxian's voice echoed in the spacious courtyard for a long time, leaving everyone speechless at his clumsy performance.

Yifei covered her face with her hands, she simply couldn't bear to look.

The old man's raised hand began to tremble slightly as he glared at Zeng Xiaoxian through gritted teeth.

He wished he could ride on Xiaoxian's back and give this shameless guy a good beating.

[That explains why his limbs felt weak and his lower body unsteady; he had absolutely no air of a master.]

[After all that, it turns out they were just treating me like a little kid, playing with me!]

Does he think I'm the kind of shameless person who would hold a grudge if I lost?

The old man was both angry and furious, but in his anger, he suddenly burst into laughter.

He looked at Hu Yifei, who was covering her face, and chuckled, teasingly saying, "You found someone this shameless?"

I'm coming
