Martial Arts Master

The Flower City at the end of June was sultry and humid, and walking there felt like you were in a steamer, which was extremely uncomfortable.

Although Lou Cheng could activate the ice energy to resolve the heat, he could not change the humidity of the surrounding air. He only felt that his skin was sticky and his pores were not able to "breathe" smoothly. He wished he could find a place to take a shower immediately.

"This is a one-echelon-by-echelon design, with good privacy protection, and it's not far from our Longhu Club, about a twenty-minute drive." A long-haired girl wearing a white shirt, light gray skirt, and sandals turned her head. introduced.

Her name is Ou Man, and she is a staff member sent by the Dragon Tiger Club to greet Lou Cheng at the airport. Her skin has a healthy color, her facial features are soft and beautiful, and the corners of her eyes are naturally slightly raised.

"It's not bad." Lou Cheng carried his luggage and dragged his trolley case. He looked around, nodded slightly, and then followed Ouman to swipe his card and enter the elevator, feeling a sense of coolness.

Auman pressed the button on the sixth floor and looked at the famous genius with a soft smile:

"The water, electricity and various expenses here are all taken care of by the club. You don't have to worry about it, Mr. Lou. If you encounter any problems, you can go directly to the property management. If the property management can't solve it, give me a call..."

As he was talking, the elevator stopped at the sixth floor. The area outside the door was quite large, with sofas, round tables, bonsai and other objects placed there. It looked like a waiting hall. The decoration style of the room was cold and hard, with black, gray and silver colors. Mainly in equal tones, it has a modern industrial feel.

It is over 200 square meters, with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a dining room, a living room, and a clean and tidy kitchen. The layout is quite spacious and does not feel cramped.

"I live alone, so there's no need to make it so big, right?" Lou Chenghao laughed out loud.

He originally thought it was just a two-bedroom apartment of 70 to 80 square meters.

Ouman smiled lightly and said: "Everyone is the same, you can't be special."

"Everyone?" Lou Cheng was moved and asked with interest.

"They are the inhuman strong men of the club's 'preparatory group'." Ouman's eyes flickered and he answered in a friendly manner, "But there are not many people who still live in this community. Some of them bought their own houses and moved out. Some are in other cities, following other teams and competing in the second or third level of professional competitions. Some are older and have turned to management and are responsible for club-related industries. By the way, Mr. Lou, you can drive. ?"

"Yes, but I don't have a driver's license." Lou Cheng didn't hide anything.

"Then a driver will pick you up tomorrow morning at the southeast gate at 8:15. I'll ask him to contact you in advance." Ouman walked to the window and pointed to the artificial garden path outside, "There is a specially separated one there. It’s a secluded venue, so you don’t have to travel too far for morning exercise.”

"The supporting facilities here are quite complete..." Lou Cheng praised with satisfaction.

"As the top martial arts force in the country, the club still doesn't know your needs? These are all carefully selected!" Ouman smiled and extended his right hand, "Let's get to know each other again, Ouman, two years after graduation, As a member of the Dragon Tiger Club's 'Assistant Team', you can only have a dedicated assistant after you are promoted to Waigang. As for now, our 'Assistant Team' is in charge."

Lou Cheng politely stretched out his hand to shake her hand, and asked thoughtfully:

"In other words, I belong to the club's 'preparatory group'?"

"That's right, the current 'preparatory group' does not include you. There are five strong men, two of whom live in this 'Tiandu Garden'. You can see them tomorrow morning." Auman answered truthfully.

Five inhumans? This does not include those who went to other teams for actual combat training, and those who are too old to be hopeless... The number of non-humans in the Dragon Tiger Club is terrifying... No wonder the Ice God Sect, Haiximen and others jointly formed the Wuyue Society, so they could barely compete with They resisted... Lou Cheng was secretly speechless.

Ouman introduced other situations. It wasn't until a message came in on his mobile phone that he took a look and exclaimed in a low voice:

"It's so late..."

The subway is about to stop! So does the bus!

It's all because the plane was delayed for several hours!

She raised her head again and tried to keep her smile natural: "Mr. Lou, it's getting late. You should rest first. If you need anything, you can ask me via WeChat or call me."

"Okay." Lou Cheng was eager for the other party to leave.

Auman left her keys, electronic card and other items, waved her hand and walked towards the door. Just as she opened it, she suddenly remembered something and turned around and asked: "Mr. Lou, we will arrange for cleaning staff to come over regularly to clean and tidy up." ?How many days do you want it to happen and what time period do you want?"

"Just once every two days, whenever I'm not around." Lou Cheng said after careful consideration.

"I know." Ouman put on his sandals, said goodbye with a smile, and closed the door.

After getting out of the elevator, her reserved pace gradually quickened, and later she even took small steps to run quickly, running like the wind.

Finally, she caught the last subway and found her seat.

Ouman let out a long breath and relaxed her whole body, but after she leaned over and pinched her sore calf a few times, she suddenly felt a surge of sadness.

When I go to work, I have cars coming and going, and I interact with all the powerful people with extremely high incomes. I feel like I am living in a glamorous upper class society. But after get off work, I am no longer Assistant Ou, and I squeeze into the subway, eat fast food, and live in shared apartments. A small space with a bed, a table and a cabinet.

The salary offered by the Dragon Tiger Club for ordinary assistants is not too bad, but in a big city, they can only live and save money slowly...

When will this kind of life end...

…………

In the spacious room, Lou Cheng recorded the surrounding scenes with his mobile phone and broadcast live to his wife.

"How's it going? Not bad, right?" he asked slightly proudly.

Across the screen, Yan Zheke, who was wearing a pretty white practice uniform, put down the milk, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "The layout is okay, but the decoration style is too cold."

"Well, when you come over during the winter vacation, we'll go look at the house. In the next five or ten years, you'll probably have to live in Huacheng. It's better to buy sooner and have your own home sooner." Lou Cheng was half-confused and half-imaginative. said.

"Why did you wait until I came to buy it?" Yan Zheke blinked, his dimples looming.

"This kind of thing must be decided by the head of the household!" Lou Cheng replied without hesitation.

This is a lesson learned from the past!

The house at home was finally decided by my father, and my mother was generally satisfied, but nothing in the world is perfect. Whenever this happens, it is the day when my father is nagged.

On the other hand, the decoration basically reflected my mother's intentions. Although she regretted it later, she had no one to complain about, and could only say a few words occasionally.

Yan Zheke didn't understand the twists and turns. Hearing this, Yan Zheke smiled and nodded "seriously":

"I'm really worried about your aesthetics!"

"What's wrong with my aesthetics? My little fairy is so beautiful!" Lou Cheng beat the snake and followed the stick, speaking love words skillfully.

"You are a fool who will always succeed after all your worries!" Yan Zheke smiled and pursed his lips, turning his head and looking to the side.

"Well, Ke Xiaoke, are you considered a wise man who always makes mistakes?" Lou Cheng said to himself with a smile.

Yan Zheke looked around and saw Aunt Du going to the garage. She raised her chin and refused to cooperate and said:

"No, my brother Chengzi is so awesome~!"

My eyesight is so good!

A wise man like me will never make a mistake!

Lou Cheng smiled when he heard this. He flirted for a while and then said, "I heard from the assistant just now that the club has assigned me a chef who can cook Xingzhou cuisine. From now on, I can be there morning, noon and evening." Eat, you don’t have to be busy anymore when you come back.”

"Hey, don't you like cooking very much?" Yan Zheke covered her mouth and snickered.

"What I like is cooking with the little fairy." Lou Cheng chuckled, "If I'm alone, it takes two hours to cook, half an hour to wash the dishes, and only ten minutes to eat. What a waste!"

"That's right..." Yan Zheke nodded in agreement.

Before she finished speaking, she turned her eyes and blurted out:

"You eat so much, how can ten minutes be enough? You liar!"

"..." Lou Cheng was speechless for a moment, and it took him a long time to answer, "Can't I just use an analogy... understand the spirit, understand the spirit..."

At this time, Aunt Du came in and urged the girl to change clothes. Yan Zheke hurriedly drank the last sip of milk, ended the video, and walked lightly to the second floor.

She had no classes in the morning, but she had to go to the classroom to discuss group reports at ten o'clock. Lou Cheng called his mother, reported the situation at his residence, washed up and lay down on the bed.

"I'm in Huacheng!" Before going to bed, he sent a message to Jiang Fatty.

This guy is studying in college in Huacheng, Guangnan!

"I'm back to Xiushan!" Jiang Fei replied with a wicked smile, "I'm just kidding, I'm just waiting for you to come over and treat me to a nice meal. When will you make an appointment? I'll get my high-speed rail ticket the day after tomorrow?"

"Let's talk tomorrow. I haven't reported yet and I don't know the club's arrangements." Lou Cheng did not promise casually.

After ending the chat and saying good night to Yan Zheke, he locked the screen of his mobile phone and plunged the master bedroom into darkness. Everything was silent. The dim light shone in from the window, bringing peace and loneliness.

It's not like Lou Cheng has never been to other places before, but except for Xiushan and Songcheng, he knew clearly in his heart that it was just a short stay and he would leave soon.

And this time, I will take root here, sprout here, and grow here. The next five, ten, and twenty years will belong to this city.

The lack of sense of belonging and the long future made Lou Cheng feel a little sentimental and melancholy inexplicably, and his heart was full of unreality.

Is this my "hometown" for the rest of my life?

He had a similar feeling the night he first arrived in Songcheng, but there was more than one person in the dormitory, and the excitement quickly diluted everything, and now he only had himself.

A stranger in a foreign land.

…………

Early the next morning, Lou Cheng got up on time, went to the specially designated area, and found a relatively secluded location to exercise.

At 8:10, he put on his ordinary backpack and came to the southeast gate of "Tiandu Garden". He saw the silver-gray business car that came to pick him up, and saw Ouman waiting at the door with obvious bags under his eyes.

This commercial vehicle has a very spacious space, with two rows facing each other, separated by a small refrigerator and a bar, each with its own table.

A man and a woman were sitting opposite, their eyes scanning Lou Cheng as if they were real.

"Let me introduce you. From now on, you will be teammates in the 'preparatory group'." Auman said with a bright smile.
