Afterwards, I found You Meng and began to discuss with her about where she and Grandpa Huang would be staying.
One was an expert that Director You personally invited, and the other was my colleague who was known as China's most beautiful bodyguard. I couldn't let them stay in my house, right?
My house was already shabby. Although we had a lot of empty rooms, we didn't have the capital to keep guests.
I was afraid that Master Huang would dislike it, so I specifically came to find You Meng to discuss whether or not we could rent a decent house nearby for Master Huang.
You Meng was straightforward and directly ran to discuss with Master Huang. Two minutes later, she came back and told me, "Master Huang likes this place very much. He said that the environment is good and suitable for practicing martial arts. It's close to the Yellow River and has a natural place to practice martial arts.
He has decided to live in your house! "
Although I was satisfied with the answer, I couldn't help but ask, "What kind of place is Master Huang's so-called natural place to practice martial arts?"
You Meng smiled and said, "It's the Yellow River Beach. It's quieter there and the soil is a bit soft. It's just right for you to practice martial arts!"
I nodded and felt the same.
Then, I told You Meng what Master Huang had arranged for me to do. When You Meng heard it, she shook her beautiful little head and pouted, "This is a good way to improve one's overall quality!"
I smiled bitterly and said, "But the difficulty is too high!"
"How high?" You Meng asked.
I said, "Think about it, even if we can find the martial arts centers that Master Huang mentioned, do you think they will have time to practice martial arts with us?"
You Meng thought for a moment and said, "You Meng is right.
This Master Huang is really a strange old man! "
I just sighed.
You Meng chewed on a piece of bubble gum. After chewing it twice, she suddenly realized something and said to me, "How about this, Zhao Long, this lady will accompany you. How about it?"
I was startled and said with a smile, "That's good!"
You Meng high-fived me and said, "Then it's settled!"
On the other hand, I immediately thought of a more reliable method. In order to not make this absurd action seem too presumptuous, why don't I communicate with these martial arts schools in advance?
The method was reliable enough, but he was afraid that the other party would refuse because he didn't have enough time. If that happened, he would be in trouble.
However, he could only give it a try.
Thus, I used my connections in the Shandong Martial Arts Association to find out the contact details and addresses of Tianlun Taekwondo Club, Fushen Karate Activity Center, Maiad Muay Thai Dojo, Guohuamen Jeet Kune Dojo, Suhua American Style Boxing Center, and several other dojos.
Call these units.
It could be said that he was very nervous, afraid that he would be rejected by the other party.
But what I didn't expect was that these five martial arts schools actually agreed to my visit and warmly welcomed me.
I'm really puzzled!
How could it be so smooth?
That night, after dinner, I hid in my room and thought about how to challenge the five martial arts centers tomorrow. Thinking about it, I felt that there was still a long way to go, and I didn't know what the result would be.
You Meng suddenly knocked on the door and entered.
I thought she came to discuss a strategy with me, but I didn't expect You Meng to come in with a straight face and interrogate me, "Zhao Long, tell me honestly, what happened between you and Zhao Jie?"
I was stunned, why did this chick think of Zhao Jie again?
She really didn't let me take her lightly!
I said perfunctorily, "Nothing happened, she and I are like tofu, completely innocent."
You Meng snorted coldly and sat over, "Impossible!
What did Zhao Jie say when she came today?
She said did you forget the night before you became a soldier … I still remember this sentence. Tell me honestly, what did you do that night? "
I smiled bitterly, "We didn't do anything.
Please, You Meng, can't you give me some space to think about this matter properly? "
You Meng pouted, "No, no, no.
You have to be honest first.
Don't lie, don't be impatient! "
I said, "I told you, nothing happened that night.
Zhao Jie just came to see me off and we had a meal together.
She left after the meal. "
I definitely couldn't talk about this matter based on the actual situation. Although Zhao Jie was no longer my girlfriend, I wouldn't tell others about her previous lingering and flirting with me.
This was a matter of principle.
But You Meng didn't believe me and shook her head, "Who would believe that!
It's impossible for nothing to have happened. "
I said impatiently, "It's up to you to believe it or not."
You Meng continued to ask, "Then … did you guys kiss goodbye?"
My face heated up, but I still nodded.
You Meng frowned, "After the kiss, what else did you do?"
I finally couldn't stand You Meng's repeated difficulties, so I stood up and glared at her, "You Meng, are you here to check my household registration?"
You Meng was slightly disappointed as she spat out a mouthful of bubbles. She used her small tongue to search around her lips for a while before she fiercely chewed twice. Then, she left the room without looking back.
I knew that I made her angry.
But I wasn't used to being questioned about things that were hard to talk about.
It was already in the past, why did she have to get to the bottom of it?
As soon as You Meng left, my phone rang. I was shocked when I opened it.
It was actually a call from a reporter from a Beijing TV station, Sun Yan.
A few months ago, when the Bureau Chief met with a foreign guest at the Purple Light Pavilion in Zhongnanhai, Sun Yan interviewed the meeting as a senior reporter of a TV station. After the meeting ended, Sun Yan indirectly wanted to interview me and indirectly understand the content of 'other aspects'.
But we have a strict system, so I refused Sun Yan's interview.
Who knew that these reporters were very 'dedicated'. She actually got my phone number without me knowing, and she also asked me out twice. She also directly expressed her affection to me … Thinking about these inexplicable things, I felt very surprised. I admit, as a national guard, I have a halo that ordinary people can't imagine. Especially in the 21st century, with the development of information technology and the broadcast of the movie 'Bodyguard of Zhongnanhai', more and more people have a strong thirst for knowledge about our industry.
Although we have a strict confidentiality system, under the repeated requests of various media reporters, it is inevitable that many aspects will be known and understood.
Regarding Sun Yan's appearance, there were still many doubts in my heart that I couldn't solve.
I always suspected that this reporter's motives were not pure.
At this time, Sun Yan called again, what was the purpose of it?
Picking up the phone, Sun Yan said sweetly, "Mr. Zhao, are you free, let's meet?"
I said, "Sorry, I'm in my hometown in Shandong."
Sun Yan smiled, "I'm also in your hometown, I'm in Songhe County!"
I was stunned, "How did you know I went back to my hometown?"
Sun Yan said mysteriously, "Don't forget, I'm a reporter, what can be difficult for a reporter?"
I thought to myself, the reporters these days are really omnipotent, whether it's a national secret or a family's private matters, they have a way to know everything.
With them in this world, are there any secrets in this world?
I asked, "Why did you come to Songhe?
You didn't come just to see me, right? "
Sun Yan said, "The leader sent me to follow the matter of Songhe County's Deputy Chief, Hu Ziqiang. There are still many details of this matter that haven't been reported yet, and the staff of the Ministry of Public Security are still investigating in Songhe. Once this Deputy Chief's deeds were published online, he immediately became a celebrity!"
I was stunned, "You came to follow this matter?"
Sun Yan said, "Yes.
I heard that you and this Deputy Chief had some friction, right? "
I felt a wave of dizziness, how does this Sun Yan know everything!
"… …"
In the end, I still refused Sun Yan's request to meet, but before Sun Yan hung up the phone, she jokingly threatened me, "If you don't want to see me, I'll go find you myself!"
I didn't pay her any attention.
As soon as I hung up the phone, You Meng rushed into the room.
"Who called?" She hurriedly asked.
I told her the truth, "Sun Yan."
You Meng was stunned, "Why did she call?"
I told You Meng about Sun Yan's investigation in Songhe County. After You Meng heard it, she thought about it and solemnly warned me, "I'm telling you, Zhao Long, no matter what, you can't see her, okay?
It won't be good if others know about it. Also, you need to know your current status. You need to stay away from the media to avoid getting into trouble. "
I didn't understand, "You Meng, what are you thinking?
You were the one who encouraged me to date Sun Yan, and now you're telling me to stay away from her.
I really don't understand! "
You Meng said with conviction, "But the situation is different now!"
I smiled bitterly and didn't say anything else.
The next day at 7 am, You Meng and I set off. We crossed the Yellow River from the Beidianzi Pontoon Bridge and drove straight into Jinan City.
I took out the map of Jinan City and roughly looked at it. Our first stop was the Tianlun Taekwondo Club.
The club was located in the Dongcheng District of Jinan City. It covered a large area and could be considered the largest Taekwondo exchange club in Shandong.
The entire club was built in the style of a Japanese or Korean villa. It was simple yet elegant. The two story light red building had the words' Tianlun Taekwondo Club 'written in both Chinese and Korean characters.
Looking at the entire club, it was large and luxurious. It could be described in one word: very imposing.
It looks like it wouldn't be a problem to accommodate over a thousand students!
What I didn't expect was that when You Meng and I entered the club, we were greeted by a middle aged man wearing a Taekwondo uniform and a black belt.
This man was the head instructor of the Tianlun Taekwondo Club — — Shen Jingran, an 8th dan Taekwondo black belt.
Shen Jingran shook hands with me and said a few words before leading me to the training hall.
It was a very large training hall with an area of around five to six hundred square meters.
There were all kinds of training equipment around the training hall. Over a hundred students were divided into several groups and the atmosphere was quite lively.
Instructor Shen Jingran invited us to a corner of the training hall and sat down.
Another black belt instructor blew the whistle to gather the team. The hundred or so students quickly formed up and were then led by the black belt instructor to the center of the hall.
I counted and found that there were sixteen black belts among the hundred people.
I didn't know much about Taekwondo organizations, but I have heard a bit about the black belt and white belt levels.
It can be seen that the Taekwondo Club lived up to its reputation. It could be considered a powerful Taekwondo club.
But what puzzled me was that these people seemed to be prepared for my arrival. Especially Instructor Shen Jingran, it was as if he already expected this challenge.
Of course, I was very moved by Instructor Shen Jingran's friendly attitude. Regardless of the result, I still have one more friend in the Wulin world.
I asked boldly: "Instructor Shen, what level are you in right now?" I felt a bit presumptuous after asking.
But Instructor Shen Jingran smiled and said: "Eighth level."
I momentarily blanked.
Of course I knew what eighth level meant.
It seems like Instructor Shen Jingran was only around forty years old. It wasn't easy to reach the eighth level of Taekwondo.
According to what I know, there are nine levels of Taekwondo black belts. The ninth level is the highest level. But it's said that there are only three people in the world who can reach the ninth level.
Those who can reach the eighth level are all top experts with quite a bit of reputation in the Taekwondo circle.
Instructor Shen Jingran saw that I blanked and continued: "Mr. Zhao is a soldier, right?"
I nodded: "Yeah.
I'm a soldier and really like martial arts. Since I'm on vacation, I wanted to come out and learn from experts. "
Instructor Shen Jingran smiled: "I'm very happy that you chose to spar with our Taekwondo.
I will do my best to let you understand the benefits of our Taekwondo.
Including techniques to counter the enemy. "
I smiled: "That would be best.
Thank you for your guidance! "
