After playing for a while, the extremely excited couple went up to the fourth floor to the clothing store. All the shops were brightly lit and the clothes inside were very beautiful.

Wife, this dress is beautiful. You will definitely look prettier in it than the one worn by the salesperson. It’s not expensive, only 12 yuan. Try it on and buy it if it fits you.

I went downstairs with bags of all sizes, and saw at the supermarket exit, middle-aged women pushing full carts out with satisfied smiles on their faces.

The aunties are buying so many things. Wife, why don’t we go shopping too? It’s okay if we just shop but don’t buy anything. You can’t forbid us to go out, right?

You're not allowed to bring your belongings in? Where should you put them? At the front desk? In a locker? How thoughtful!

After walking around, I carried out two or three more bags and took back the things I had deposited. I touched my empty pockets and my heart was bleeding. I felt a little regretful, but if I let them see the cheap and practical things and didn't buy them, I would regret it even more.

Well, I'll just consider it as an experience of high-end consumption. The things I bought are enough for the family to use for a while, and I can also make my wife, who always has a long face, smile. It's a good deal.

Last Sunday, Gao Fei wanted to come to the market town, but his parents wouldn't let him, saying they hadn't received their salary yet and there was no money for him to squander.

This week, he finally got his pocket money and hurried here with his homework. The lie he gave was that he went to a classmate's house to do his homework. His parents didn't like his close contact with Zhou Kai and said that Zhou Kai was too lazy.

When he saw Zhou Kai again, Gao Fei rubbed his eyes. How come Zhou Kai seemed to have grown taller and stronger?

"What's with that expression on your face?" Zhou Kai patted Gao Fei's shoulder.

Gao Fei's body tilted and he almost fell. He raised his hand to rub his shoulder which was hurt by the slap. "Zhou Kai, why did you slap me so hard? It hurts so much."

Zhou Kai looked at his palm and said, "No! I just patted it lightly! Are you really that delicate?"

Gao Fei suddenly paused, "Zhou Kai, don't you know how strong you are?"

When asked this question, Zhou Kai also thought that he had been exercising for half a year and really didn't care whether his strength had increased.

He suddenly ran to the alley beside the door, took out two red bricks, one upright and the other flat, squatted beside the bricks, raised his palm, and chopped down the red brick above. The red brick immediately broke into two pieces.

Looking at the slight red on the edge of his blade, Zhou Kai's body trembled slightly. Can he, can he split bricks?

Gao Fei was also stunned. Had his good friend finally mastered this? "Kai, Zhou Kai, you, you have mastered this?"

Zhou Kai came back to his senses and shook his hands, as if shaking them would relieve the pain on the blade. He said nonchalantly, "This is just the beginning. Breaking bricks is something they don't want to do. My goal is to climb walls and fly over rooftops. But I can break bricks, which means I've made progress."

"Of course not. I haven't seen you for only three weeks, and you've grown taller and stronger."

"Really?"

"real!"

Zhou Kai excitedly turned around a few times. He had made progress and grown taller. He was sure he could complete the progress according to the schedule.

Xia Fei came over and called Zhou Kai to training. Seeing the red bricks on the ground and then looking at the excited Zhou Kai, he thought for a moment and decided not to discourage him. "Good, you've noticed the changes in yourself. As long as you keep up the momentum, you'll definitely be able to meet your goals."

Zhou Kai nodded, "Don't worry, I will continue to work hard and try my best to exceed the target. I still want to seek revenge on Ling Ran."

Xia Fei twitched his lips. Seeking revenge on the boss was almost like seeking death. "Pack the bricks and come with me to training."

Zhou Kai bent down to pick up a brick, "Gao Fei, go play on the second floor of Beitou Mall by yourself! I need to train."

Gao Fei raised his schoolbag and said, "I'll do my homework first. At noon, you can take me out to play. Can't we play with one car?"

"Alright! Go write at the dining table in the South Building. I'll be right back with you as soon as I finish training."

Zhou Xianglingran couldn't help laughing when he heard the report. The biggest reason why Zhou Kai, this idiot, could be fooled was that he could use his imagination.

However, with the diet at home and the training he has been doing over the past few months, his strength has definitely increased a lot.

"Wife, are you planning to train him to be very strong?"

"Let's talk about it after a while. We also need to change his character. Let's see if he becomes arrogant after his fighting power increases."

"Impossible! I didn't hit him this time because I wanted to boost his confidence. Next time, I'll hit him hard and make him look utterly humiliated."

"Well! You have to keep an eye on him. If he shows any signs of getting dizzy, take a picture of him. As for his strength, he definitely needs training. The end result is that he's a useless piece of shit with no intelligence, but he's a good candidate for physical training. He's suited to this kind of high-intensity training. The captain's position is perfect for him to pursue a higher level of physical fitness."

Ling Ran couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Yes, the captain is his ultimate goal."

I just don't know if there will be any sparks of "purple energy" when these two people meet.

As soon as Zhou Kai finished training, he immediately went back to Zhou's house to accompany his good friend, but he saw Gao Fei staring blankly at the exercise book, "Have you finished?"

Gao Fei put down his pen in frustration, "What am I supposed to write? I haven't done any of the questions yet. I don't understand!"

"You didn't listen in class."

"Didn't you listen in class, either? I envy you. Your parents are practically obedient to you. Not only are my physical freedoms restricted, but my spiritual freedom is restricted as well. It's so annoying."

"Freedom of mind?"

"Yeah! I'm not even allowed to watch or listen to tapes or discs. They force me to study every day, but how can I learn? I can't even understand what I'm reading.

I, I want to run away from home, can you please ask your cousin if she is willing to take me in as her apprentice?"

Zhou Kai felt very sympathetic towards his friend's situation, but said, "Last time I saw you looking so interested, I asked for your help. My cousin said that those who want to learn martial arts here have to pay 2,000 yuan in tuition per year, 200 yuan in food per month, free accommodation, and the rest is all on their own."

Gao Fei was discouraged when he heard this. He only had 20 yuan in pocket money every month, and his New Year's money had to be turned in. Where would the money come from? His parents definitely wouldn't give him any money.

Seeing his friend's eyes tear up, Zhou Kai expressed his sympathy. "How about you come work here during the winter break? The supermarket is hiring temporary workers for the holidays. I heard you can earn three dollars an hour!"

Gao Fei immediately sat up straight, "Really?"

"Really? Your family wants you to take the exam to get your diploma, but there's only one semester left, right? You can take advantage of your vacation to work and earn money, and then after graduation, you can continue studying and working. Isn't that a great path? If you can earn your own tuition, your parents won't have to control you anymore, right?"

"Okay, okay! Let's go ask the supermarket now. Are they hiring students? When do they hire them?"

"Okay, I'll go with you."

As soon as they left, Ling Ran received a report from Tian Cheng.

"Don't worry about it, Xia Fei. As long as he doesn't incite others to do bad things, it's fine if he works part-time during the holidays to earn tuition."

"Boss, do we still need to bring Gao Fei with us?"

"It also depends on his perseverance. If he can really stick with it, why not take him along? It's better than him just wandering off into society right after graduation, right?"

"But, but, what if we recruit more and more people in the future?"
