Who says those who retire at the speed of light are not heroes?

　Lin Cheng dodged Lu Xiaoxiao's slashing blade by leaning sideways.

"Hey, you don't have to be so angry even if you refuse, right?"

Just as Lin Cheng dodged to the side, Lu Xiaoxiao's next knife was about to strike upward again. Lin Cheng felt his lower body tighten and he took a step back to avoid this insidious move. Lu Xiaoxiao stabbed at him many times, but Lin Cheng had already predicted the trajectory of the blade from the beginning, so no matter how hard Lu Xiaoxiao tried, the blade could not touch him at all.

The sound of blades cutting through the air was heard in the air. In the end, it was Lu Xiaoxiao who was completely exhausted first. Her legs went limp, and her body fell to the ground. Lin Cheng held her steadily in his arms.

"What's wrong?" Lin Cheng looked at Lu Xiaoxiao's blushing face. It was not because of blushing, but because of excessive exercise. Her face was covered with sweat, and it felt like she could squeeze out half a bottle of water if she took off her shirt.

Lin Cheng gently hugged Lu Xiaoxiao's waist. After a while, Lu Xiaoxiao turned her face away and said, "I lost the competition."

"Competition? With whom?"

"Jiquan."

"Ji's?"

"Ah."

"If you lose, you lose. Why do you look so aggrieved?" Lin Cheng looked at Lu Xiaoxiao with a helpless look, and stretched out his hand to pinch her snow-white face. "Can you win all your life?"

Lu Xiaoxiao didn't say anything. Lin Cheng looked at her wet body and asked, "Change your clothes and go have dinner?"

"Don't eat."

"Then what do you want to do?"

"Rest for a while and continue training. I have an appointment with him to fight again in a month."

"You are just too strong-willed." Lin Cheng looked at her face helplessly. A proud character always has two sides. Lin Cheng looked into Lu Xiaoxiao's eyes and said, "Go and take a shower. Let's eat something and have a good rest first."

"No, take me to the illusion, I want to continue practicing with the sword."

"Do you think I'm asking for your opinion?" The next second, Lu Xiaoxiao, who was still lying in Lin Cheng's arms, was turned over by him. Lin Cheng stretched out his hand and slapped her on her plump buttocks. Lu Xiaoxiao's snow-white buttocks shook, and the sound of "slap" almost echoed throughout the entire gymnasium.

"You, you dare to hit me...?"

"Yes, and I will beat you if you don't listen." Lin Cheng slapped her again. Lu Xiaoxiao's pride was wiped out by these two slaps. Her eyes suddenly showed grievance, "You bully me."

"If I don't bully you, who else can I bully?" Lin Cheng carried Lu Xiaoxiao up and found the shower room in the gymnasium. Lu Xiaoxiao felt weak all over. Lin Cheng put her on a stool against the wall, adjusted the water temperature, and came to her side to rub bubbles for her.

The water flowed on the girl's fair and soft skin. Lu Xiaoxiao's butt was still aching, so she could only sit there obediently. Lin Cheng watched the water flow from her collarbone to her chest, and then to her waist. Looking down, the girl's legs were tightly together.

"Okay, stand up and wash your back."

Lu Xiaoxiao was obedient this time. Although Lin Cheng had the idea of ​​doing something with her at this moment, it seemed a bit too much. She was feeling depressed, so he had to rinse her body with clean water. Lu Xiaoxiao obediently took out new underwear and clothes and put them on, a white sweatshirt and black hot pants. Her legs were straight and slender under the hot pants.

....................................

Barbecue stall on the street.

Lin Cheng finally learned the whole story from Lu Xiaoxiao. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "He has been practicing sword for more than ten years. How long have you been learning knife? Isn't it normal for you to lose?"

Even though countless deaths can stimulate a person's potential, experience is also very important when it comes to sword skills. Lu Xiaoxiao has good talent, and Lin Cheng's objective evaluation is, "If you practice hard for another half a year, it won't be difficult to beat him."

"I made an appointment to fight again in a month."

"He agreed?"

"I bet 1000 million yuan."

"You're really rich." Lin Cheng reached out and poked her little face, "Then I'll practice with you?"

“Oh…” Lu Xiaoxiao lowered her head, and her eyes became obedient again.

"But let's have some good news tonight. Practicing these things requires a combination of work and rest. It's useless to just work hard." Lin Cheng smiled helplessly.

..........................................

After promising Lu Xiaoxiao that she would accompany her to practice swordplay, Lu Xiaoxiao snuggled obediently in Lin Cheng's arms.

But, there is no astringency.

Because Lu Xiaoxiao came to cause trouble for relatives.

Holding Lu Xiaoxiao's soft body in his arms, Lin Cheng was the one who felt depressed this time. He tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep. Lu Xiaoxiao looked up, "Are you still not asleep?"

"…I want to sleep but can't."

"I closed my eyes and fell asleep quickly."

"……you're right."

Lin Cheng tossed and turned in bed for a long time, feeling like his head was about to explode. He even thought about trying to coax Lu Xiaoxiao into playing some interesting games with him, but given Lu Xiaoxiao's personality, the chances of her refusing and then biting him hard were 95%.

My head is dizzy.

Lin Cheng grabbed the quilt to cover his head and stopped hugging Lu Xiaoxiao. The touch of her skin made his head even more dizzy. He could only toss and turn in bed, ah ah ah ah ah ah!

At two o'clock in the morning, Lin Cheng sat up from the bed.

Lu Xiaoxiao had fallen asleep. She opened her eyes dazedly when she heard the noise. "You're not asleep yet?"

"Yes, where is that Jiquan?"

"I lost the bet with him. I have already solved the control in the city. He should be packing up his things and explaining some other things in the city. He should leave after he finishes explaining them."

"Shall we go beat him up?"

"Are you serious?"

"Yeah, I couldn't sleep at all, and I wanted to find something to do."

Lin Cheng looked down at Lu Xiaoxiao.

....................................

Three o'clock in the morning.

Ji Quan ended the drinking party tonight, and staggered towards the hotel next door with the girl he was hooking up with. Tonight he wanted to make a break with his group of friends in T City. He couldn't stay in T City for the time being. Ji Quan enjoyed his life in the past few years. After having a lot of money, people around him flattered him, and the beautiful girls he wanted came at any time. He finally didn't have to eat those bland meals in the paradise anymore.

The most important thing is freedom. Finally, I don't have to be controlled anymore, and I don't have to practice sword all day long. What's the point of practicing sword all day long? No matter how hard I try, I can't compare to Miss Ji. She can achieve what others of them would practice for a year or two in just a few days of practice. Anyway, I will never be qualified to touch the Pure Water Sword in this life.

The girl next to him was the type who was rather cold during the drinking party all night, but after he transferred 2 yuan to her, the girl's coldness did not subside, but now she was obediently hugged by his waist. I don't know if she can still remain so cold in the future. Maybe the colder the girl looks, the more contrasting she is in private? Ji Quan has begun to look forward to it.

But unfortunately, he had to stop at this moment.

Because there was a man and a woman standing on the side of the road, staring at him quietly under the street light. The woman was Lu Xiaoxiao, whom he had just met in the evening. Ji Quan had to admit that this woman was quite talented. She had comprehended the eighth level of swordsmanship not long after learning it. Fortunately, she had only learned it not long ago. Although her swordsmanship was sharp and murderous, she lacked experience and the murderous aura was too heavy. The Jingshui swordsmanship of their Ji family was based on the essence of using softness to overcome hardness.

But Ji Quan couldn't figure out the man next to the girl.

The man next to Lu Xiaoxiao was tall but not burly. He was wearing simple pajamas with a SpongeBob SquarePants pattern printed on them. What the hell was this?

"You're willing to accept the loss. You're not going to regret it, are you?" Ji Quan had already begun to look around. Was there a trap set by the alliance around here? Or was the man in front of him the thug she hired? Ji Quan was ready to run away. With his ability, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to run away.

"I didn't regret it." Lu Xiaoxiao replied calmly, "It's just that someone said they wanted to beat you up."

"Hit me?" Ji Quan sneered, but just as he said this, Lin Cheng's figure suddenly flashed in front of him, and the next second a punch hit him in the face.

The girl next to Ji Quan ran away in fear, and Ji Quan was knocked to the ground by the punch. He immediately turned over, but the next second Lin Cheng punched him in the lower abdomen again. The punch was not heavy, but Ji Quan had drunk a lot of wine, and this punch made him vomit all the wine in his stomach.

He couldn't figure it out, but there was no time for him to figure it out now.

By the time he finished vomiting, he had used up all the energy in his body and the effects of the alcohol were quickly broken down. His eyes were fixed on Lin Cheng in front of him, and then he took out the Green Water Sword hidden inside.

The Ji family and the Qin family both have special methods that allow them to carve a spatial mark on their bodies, hide the sword inside their bodies, and nourish the sword body with energy.

"Are you going to die?" Ji Quan raised his arm to wipe the water stains from the corner of his mouth, but the next second, the man in front of him punched him in the left cheek unreasonably, "Let your sister discipline you."

"Who are you? Do you think you have the qualifications to discipline me? Fuck you..."

Ji Quan couldn't help but swear, because before he could finish his words, Lin Cheng punched him in the right face again. These two punches completely sobered him up. Lin Cheng stood one meter away from him and asked calmly, "Are you awake?"

Ji Quan came back to his senses, and laughed in anger, holding the sword tightly in his hand, "Wake up, if I don't cut off your arm today, I will write the name Ji Quan backwards!"

"Before you make any harsh remarks, my advice is to consider whether you are qualified."

Lin Cheng was too lazy to take out any sword. Ji Quan had already stepped forward with a sword in hand, the blade breaking through the air with a rustling sound. However, in Lin Cheng's eyes, the trajectory of his sword was like a calculated formula, which could be easily avoided after being broken down. No matter which style of the Ji family's Pure Water Sword Technique he used, in Lin Cheng's eyes it was like a clumsy three-year-old child waving a branch.

Every time he dodged a move, he would punch Ji Quan in the face. He did not hit hard. Although both of them had the same energy level, it was as if he concentrated all the energy of 100,000 into one punch, and he could probably easily blow Ji Quan's head apart.

These two punches were just punishments. Lin Cheng kept muttering as he hit him, "I told you not to learn your lesson! You defected and did nothing! I told you to join a resistance organization! I told you to be a thug! I told you to hang out in nightclubs and flirt with girls! You also want to break my arm, right? Huh? Are you going to break it or not? Speak!"

Ji Quan's face was almost beaten into a pig's head. It was swollen and his words were unclear. "I won't take it off anymore. Brother, brother, please stop hitting me. I was wrong. I know I was wrong... Brother, please stop hitting me! Please! Brother..."

Lin Cheng retracted his fist and breathed a sigh of relief.

Refreshed.

219 Not required

"Hold your head and squat down." Lin Cheng looked at Ji Quan in front of him indifferently.

Ji Quan, who was angry and proud just now, has now become a coward, holding his head. Lin Cheng looked down at him and said, "Tell me all the information you know about the resistance organization. Did you hear me?"

"If I confess, they will hunt me down..."

"You won't confess?" Lin Cheng sneered, "If I remember correctly, if you in the Ji family have sex with a woman of questionable character before marriage, you will be castrated, right? I will help you enforce the family rules?"

"Brother, the family rules are now mostly abolished. They were set decades ago and are no longer so strict..." Ji Quan was about to retort, but when he looked up, Lin Cheng had already picked up the sword he had dropped on the ground and seemed to have begun to consider how to cut it properly. Ji Quan trembled, "I confess, I confess everything."

Lu Xiaoxiao silently held the video recorder and recorded every word Ji Quan said. After submitting the information to the alliance, her mission was completed.

It seemed like no matter what troubles she encountered, in front of this guy...it was always so easy to solve.

Ji Quan spent twenty minutes telling everything he knew. What he had to think about next was how to avoid being hunted down by the resistance organization. If that didn't work, he would go back to the Ji family for shelter. The worst that could happen was that he would be hung up and beaten by the elders of the family for three days and three nights. It would be good enough as long as he could survive.

"Brother, this brother... do you know my cousin?"

Ji Quan only has this one cousin. He remembered what Lin Cheng said just now: "I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of your sister." However, Lin Cheng was too lazy to answer and simply ignored him. Anyway, all the information that needed to be explained had been given.

"Go home and sleep." Lin Cheng yawned and held Lu Xiaoxiao's hand.

..........................................

"Why do you know so much about the Ji family?"

"I know his cousin. Didn't his cousin join the alliance a few years ago to help fight natural disasters?" Lin Cheng hugged the pillow.

"Why don't you hug me..." Lu Xiaoxiao muttered softly.

"Your body is so soft, I feel really horny when I hug you."

"…Did you come to me just to be shy?"

"No, I just came to see you and play with you for a while. Astringency is just part of it."

"But why do you sound so disappointed..."

“It’s just a little disappointment.”

"If it's not bitter... will you feel lost? If it's not bitter in the future... will you still come to see me?"

Lin Cheng knew that Lu Xiaoxiao was getting too sleepy again, but he was so sleepy now. He reached out and pinched Lu Xiaoxiao's face, "Go to sleep. I'm so sleepy."

"You haven't answered me directly yet."

Lin Cheng raised his hand and slapped Lu Xiaoxiao hard on the butt, "Go to sleep."

Lu Xiaoxiao bit her lips and said nothing.

....................................

The next day.

Lu Xiaoxiao's mission has been completed. She was not here to arrest Ji Quan. Ji Quan was just a thug. What she wanted was the information that Ji Quan knew. After getting the information, it was time to return to the court. Lin Cheng and Lu Xiaoxiao took the high-speed train home. Lu Xiaoxiao rested her head on his shoulder and slept all the way.

After returning home, Lin Cheng practiced sword skills with Lu Xiaoxiao in the sports stadium in her villa.

This practice lasted a whole day. Apart from eating time, they did nothing else. Lu Xiaoxiao practiced until she was exhausted. Lin Cheng was also exhausted. After practicing swords, they could take a shower together. Lin Cheng looked into Lu Xiaoxiao's eyes, but Lu Xiaoxiao turned her face away. "If you don't answer my question directly, I won't be...shy with you."

"What answer do you want?"

"I want your real answer, not what I want to hear, but what you will say."

"...I don't want to argue with you. If it doesn't taste bitter, then it doesn't taste bitter."

"Then will you still practice swordplay with me?"

"If you want to practice, I'll practice with you." Lin Cheng replied weakly.

A little girl who lacks love always likes to test, desire, and seek unconditional love. Lin Cheng can understand Lu Xiaoxiao's feelings. She probably thinks that Lin Cheng is just greedy for a love with her, and that such love is not pure and is not what she wants...Okay, Lin Cheng admits that he thought so before. He also thought that he always felt that he was having a love affair with Jiang Lingxue every day, but there was not much love between the two of them...But this is actually just nitpicking.

Love and bitterness are interdependent, yet they are completely different. Love is not necessary to be bitter, and bitterness does not necessarily mean love.
