Zhong Yuchen's clothes were a little ragged, and there was a bloodstain on the corner of his mouth. He looked exhausted, as if he had just gone through a life-and-death battle.
I was bewildered. I even thought that my eyes were playing tricks on me. How could it be him?
Could it be that Zhong Yuchen was the young man Guan Ruolan mentioned?
I couldn't wrap my head around this series of questions. I couldn't help but look at Guan Ruolan. Seeing her grateful face, I was sure that Zhong Yuchen had saved them.
Director Du had called me and told me about Nan Yun's situation, including news about Zhong Yuchen. He told me that he had a grudge with someone and was enraged for the sake of a beautiful woman. After he had gone to Nan Yun's Provincial Ranking List and declared war on Nan Yun.
Zhong Yuchen won the appreciation of President Jin of the Dragon and Tiger Society and joined the Dragon and Tiger Society to further his studies. I had thought that when I met him again, we would have to fight. After all, we had some conflicts in the past. Who would have thought that not only would he save Guan Ruolan, but he had also brought Li Meiyu back with him?
"Eh, Brother Zhuang?" Zhong Yuchen was slightly stunned as well, and he spoke with surprise and bewilderment.
"Haha, I didn't expect that we would meet again." I smiled brightly. He didn't seem to have any bad intentions.
"Are they your girlfriends?" Zhong Yuchen asked curiously. He put Li Meiyu on the bed.
Before I could answer, Guan Ruolan explained, "I am. She's not. She's the second daughter of the Li family."
Zhong Yuchen didn't seem to care about the Li family. It seemed he was a newcomer, so it was normal that he didn't know the situation well.
"Oh, Brother Zhuang, you're really lucky to have such a beautiful girlfriend. But you have to keep an eye on her. If I hadn't been out shopping today and happened to catch that suspicious person, it would have been troublesome, ahem." Zhong Yuchen couldn't help but turn his head and cough twice after he finished speaking.
"Hey, I was really careless. Brother Chen, I can't thank you enough for your kindness. I didn't want to sell my shares before. Don't forget it."
I cupped my fists in gratitude, but I felt even more apologetic. At that time, I had injured Zhong Yuchen lightly, and because of that, his ranking on the Hero Ranking List had fallen behind.
If Zhong Yuchen hadn't saved me in time, even if I had arrived at the scene, it would have been too late. Moreover, that assassin wasn't someone to be trifled with. If he had used Guan Ruolan and the others to threaten me, it would have been even more troublesome.
"Oh, what are you talking about? To be honest, I have to thank you. If I hadn't been lucky enough to fight with you, I wouldn't have been able to enlighten the Apertures, and it would have been difficult for my attainments in martial arts to make a qualitative leap. Otherwise, how could I be standing here today?" Zhong Yuchen cupped his hands and said politely.
He made me feel a little embarrassed. His explanation was indeed reasonable, but it was also because of his humility that I had a good impression of him. Originally, Zhong Yuchen and I only had a small conflict. At that time, he wanted to forcefully obtain his shares, and I was the kind of person who wouldn't give in, so we had a conflict.
"Well, well, well, well, we can be considered to have gotten to know each other through a fight. Moreover, in a place like Beijing, it's like meeting an old friend in a foreign land. Let's keep in touch in the future, and we can take care of each other." I patted Zhong Yuchen's shoulder and said with a cheeky smile.
However, he seemed to be a little cautious. After hesitating for a moment, he didn't make any counterattack.
"Brother Zhuang, don't misunderstand. In the past few days, the seniors and juniors of the Dragon and Tiger Society have often instilled some ideas into me. It's like brainwashing. Sigh, if it weren't for the fact that I haven't mastered internal strength yet, I would want to be Grandmaster Chen's disciple," Zhong Yuchen said with a helpless expression.
Indeed, due to the relationship between Grandmaster Chen and President Jin, the two great martial arts schools hadn't been on good terms. In the past, the Dragon and Tiger Society always had the upper hand. However, with my extraordinary performance in the dojo challenge competition, the reputation of the Dragon and Tiger Society gradually declined. On the contrary, the Guo Wei Martial Arts School was flourishing. In fact, this was normal. The dojo challenge competition itself was a great opportunity to prove the strength of the six great martial arts schools. The results of each dojo challenge competition were also a major standard to measure the future potential of the martial arts school.
Not long ago, I met Yinci at the foot of the Great Wall and asked him to kneel in public. Due to his fear of me, Yinci had no choice but to obey. His status in the Dragon and Tiger Society wasn't low. As a promising newcomer, Zhong Yuchen naturally had to instill some hostile ideas towards martial artists. That was why when I raised my hand, he hesitated for a moment. It could be considered that he trusted me. The feeling of being trusted by others was very good.
"It's okay. I wasn't very polite to the people of the Dragon and Tiger Society before. It's inevitable that they have a problem with me." I shrugged and didn't care about such a small detail.
However, what I didn't expect was that because of my naivety and carelessness, it led to a big mistake. It almost caused the country of Hua Xia to fall into an unprecedented crisis. Of course, this is a story for the future, so let's not talk about it for now.
"Well, actually, before coming to the capital, I didn't make any preparations. After arriving here, I found that the situation was far more complicated than I thought. However, the capital is the holy land of martial arts. There are so many experts here that it gives me a sense of urgency. I like this kind of feeling." Zhong Yuchen's face was full of fighting spirit.
After a pause, he said, "Oh, that's right. Brother Zhuang, don't call me Brother Chen. It's too arrogant. You don't know, but after the dojo challenge, you have become the topic of conversation among the martial arts enthusiasts of Nan Yun. The topic about you has never stopped. I have regarded you as a role model, so I have been practicing in seclusion.
Fortunately, the heavens don't disappoint those who are willing to work hard. "" Haha, I was just lucky. Brother, if you have any questions in the future, whether it's about life or martial arts, you can find me. Besides the internal strength system, I also have my own understanding of Qi-Jin. "My mood immediately improved.
