"Maybe it's just my illusion."
Jiang Hu retracted her gaze. Perhaps she missed her Junior Brother too much.
After tidying up the things on the ground and pouring the white wine and coarse salt into the river, Jiang Hu brought her new disciple to her martial arts school.
As for whether this little disciple was willing or not, it didn't matter.
Jiang Hu had plenty of ways to deal with him.
…
The difference between the Jiang martial arts club and its number of people was the space it occupied.
Ninghe was a suburban county, but it did not undertake many transfer industries. In the era of basic infrastructure, buildings that were far beyond their carrying capacity were built.
This caused the price of non-residential buildings to become cheaper.
The dojo used to be an auto-repair factory, but Jiang Hu's father had bought it and turned it into a dojo.
Of course, even the dojo only had three people.
There was no future in martial arts.
After her father's death, Jiang Hu rented a house in another urban area and raised her Junior Brother while working, even though she was only three years older than Jin Yuchen.
'Why are you thinking of that heartless person again?'
Jiang Hu shook her head, thinking that there might be something wrong with her condition today.
When the streetcar arrived at the entrance of the martial arts school, Jiang Hu realized that the lock on the door was missing.
"No, it's impossible! No!"
Jiang Hu took a deep breath and stared at the door in a daze.
"Master Jiang?" the thick-browed young man asked anxiously as he looked at his master, who was standing still at the door.
Pulled back to reality by the young man's voice, Jiang Hu sighed. "I'm fine. There was a thief in my house."
The young man couldn't stop smiling.
'What kind of thief is this? Not to mention that she is so poor that the only valuable thing here is the door. Have they stolen the key from my master?
'Don't they know how to spell the word 'death'?'
He wanted to laugh when he thought of the bag of bricks stuck in the cement and the tree bark that had been torn off.
The iron gate of the martial arts school opened, revealing Jin Yuchen, who was lying on a recliner in the courtyard.
Jin Yuchen jumped up from his chair and said, "You're back? I've made dinner. It's in the kitchen."
The only response he got was the sound of something breaking through the air.
He was the target.
Jin Yuchen caught the bike helmet in the air and said, "You've even lost your helmet. You really can't live."
However, when he saw his Senior Sister's face, which looked like she was about to eat him up, he knew he was in trouble.
She was angrier than he had imagined.
"Sorry, Senior Sister—"
Before he could apologize, Jiang Hu had already rushed in front of him. Her right hand went straight for Jin Yuchen's throat.
Jin Yuchen clapped his hands and blocked the attack. Jiang Hu used the momentum to reach Jin Yuchen's side and punch his face with her left fist.
The fist whistled through the left side of his head. Jin Yuchen estimated that he would be hit if he didn't tilt his head to dodge.
From the sound of the wind, one's skull would probably be cracked if they were hit.
"Senior Sister, are you serious?"
Jin Yuchen parried two more of Jiang Hu's attacks and advanced at the same time, using his leg to occupy the center line.
Jiang Hu, whose center line had been occupied, turned pale. She twisted her body and used the eight-trigram formation to circle around, taking a third of the horse stance. At the same time, she raised her arm.
The claw went straight for Jin Yuchen's head.
Jin Yuchen's finger went straight for Jiang Hu's exposed armpit, but he hesitated halfway and poked Jiang Hu's shoulder.
Jiang Hu was forced to take three steps back by this stab. At the same time, she covered her right shoulder in bewilderment.
Although she had made a large movement, Jin Yuchen had managed to hit her first.
She knew how terrifying her Junior Brother's finger strength was. He must have held back just now, or else her entire arm might have been pulled off.
"Not bad. I haven't seen you in a while, and your strength has grown."
"It's just so-so." Jin Yuchen scratched his head and said, "Didn't Senior Sister also use the cloth technique? I don't remember Master teaching this.
"Please teach me."
"Bah! You wish." Jiang Hu spat. "You still need me to teach you this martial arts? I have a disciple now. I'll teach him everything and let him beat you up for me."
Jin Yuchen narrowed his eyes. Then, he turned his gaze to the thick-browed young man at the door, who was dumbfounded.
"Oh, is this the disciple that Senior Sister is talking about?"
Then, he smiled, his white teeth shining with a cold light. "Then I'll just kill him before he learns how to do it."
The thick-browed youth felt goosebumps all over his body when he saw Jin Yuchen's gaze.
The man in the courtyard seemed to be covered in blood, which filled the entire courtyard and surged toward him.
'I'm going to die!'
The thick-browed youth had never had such a clear and terrifying premonition. He didn't know why but could sense Jin Yuchen's killing intent.
"Why are you competing with the child?"
Jiang Hu smacked Jin Yuchen's head, but the latter did not dodge.
Jin Yuchen retracted his killing intent and said with a smile, "I'm just jealous.
"In the past, Senior Sister only taught me. Now that someone else is taking this away, I can't stand it."
Jiang Hu couldn't stand him anymore and said in disdain, "You're already an adult, yet you're still acting like a child.
"And do you think I want to teach any disciples?
"If you hadn't left, no one would have been able to inherit the dojo, so I thought of taking in a disciple.
"Now that you're back, you'll have to take up this responsibility. I'll leave this disciple to you."
Jin Yuchen and the thick-browed young man were both stunned.
"Sure, it's a deal then," Jin Yuchen replied after a while.
The thick-browed youth was on the verge of tears.
Jin Yuchen's malice toward him was so strong that it could not be dispelled. If he were to hand himself over to such a person, he didn't know what would happen.
He was just about to speak, but he felt as if something was stuck in his throat and couldn't speak at all.
Jin Yuchen walked up to him and stroked his head and neck. The thick-browed youth felt as if a snake had crawled across his skin.
It could bite him at any time.
This terrifying touch made him instantly wet his pants, and his urine dripped down his pants to the ground.
"So dirty."
A red light flashed in Jin Yuchen's eyes, and then he heard his Senior Sister Jiang Hu's angry shout.
"Jin! Yu! Chen! What are you doing!?"
Jin Yuchen retracted his hand and raised it above his head.
"I didn't do anything. This kid is too timid. He's already so old but can't even hold his pee.
"I really don't think that's possible. Let's just kick him out of the house."
After a while, Jiang Hu stared at Jin Yuchen and said, "You really didn't do anything?"
"I really didn't do anything." Jin Yuchen laughed.
Jiang Hu's eyes didn't leave Jin Yuchen. The tension between the two was palpable.
"You're not my Junior Brother. Who are you?"
