Chapter 70: Master and Disciple



Someone from the next village who practices martial arts? Could they be talking about Master Wang? Liu Ruonan knew about this matter.

In rural areas, the solar terms are very important. For example, during the Lantern Festival, villagers will spontaneously organize to play with dragon lanterns. This Master Wang dressed up as Sun Wukong and walked on stilts.

Many people think stilt walking is just stilt walking, and at most perform a few yangge dances. But Master Wang is different. He has many tricks. Even on stilts over one meter high, he can still do somersaults, do splits, and even perform some difficult moves.

The performances are all for good luck. People who like it will give a box of cigarettes, some will give firecrackers, and some will just give a few cents.

Master Wang always returns with a full load of dragon lanterns during every Lantern Festival.

At that time, Liu Ruonan only thought that Master Wang was very powerful. Perhaps he had acquired such skills through years of practice. However, she had never imagined that he was actually a martial artist.

What's more, what was even more unexpected was that Chen Lei was actually his apprentice.

Liu Ruonan was very happy in her heart. She didn't expect Chen Lei to be so willing to help. She thought that if the deputy manager really refused to compromise and continued to make trouble in the future, she would feel much more at ease with Chen Lei around.

When we returned to the hotel, Zhuang Sheng had already returned. Seeing Liu Ruonan's red and swollen eyes, he frowned tightly, took her hand with a worried look on his face, and asked with concern:

"How did you get hurt?"

"fine."

"Brother! It's that deputy manager again. What a jerk! He came into our shop and ordered people to start smashing things, saying this is wrong and that is wrong, saying our decoration is not up to standard!"

Liu Ruonan originally didn't want to tell Zhuang Sheng, so as not to worry him. In the army, there were already many things that kept him busy.

But Gao Shanshan suddenly started to tell the whole story like firecrackers.

Zhuang Sheng was completely confused and frowned even more. However, a dangerous look appeared in his eyes.

"What deputy manager?"

"That man said he was the deputy manager of the cinema and was in charge of our shop. He didn't want to rent the shop to Sister Ruonan. He said that if we didn't cancel the contract, he would come and cause trouble all day long and make it difficult for Sister Ruonan to run the shop."

Gao Shanshan didn't care about that. She just knew that Liu Ruonan had been wronged and she felt bad. She knew that her brother Zhuang Sheng was a top soldier in the army and believed that her brother would definitely stand up for Liu Ruonan.

Zhuang Sheng seemed to understand, picked up his military cap and was about to walk out, but was stopped by Liu Ruonan.

"Brother Zhuang Sheng, where are you going?" Liu Ruonan looked at Gao Shanshan with a reproachful look, and Gao Shanshan lowered her head in dejection.

After all, as a husband, it was impossible for him to let his wife suffer injustice in such an unfamiliar place. But Zhuang Sheng was a soldier, and if he got into trouble under impulse, the army would definitely deal with him severely.

"I'd like to see what kind of deputy manager she is!" Zhuang Sheng growled angrily. This woman, whom he had always cherished in his heart, was the woman he had always wanted to protect and cherish. How could he allow anyone to touch her?

"Brother Zhuang Sheng, listen to me, I'm fine, it's Shanshan who's exaggerating."

Liu Ruonan couldn't pull Zhuang Sheng, who was determined to leave, so she stepped forward and hugged him tightly from behind. The moment her arms wrapped around his waist, Zhuang Sheng's heart stopped for a moment.

Even though they had already slept together, the slightest contact Liu Ruonan had with him was enough to make his heart flutter. But he couldn't let go of the anger in his heart. He turned to look at Liu Ruonan and said, "Nannan, don't worry, I'm just going to take a look. I won't cause any trouble."

He naturally knew that Liu Ruonan cared about him, but he couldn't just watch things happen and remain indifferent.

Liu Ruonan grabbed Zhuang Sheng's hand and forced him to sit on the bed beside her.

"It was an accident. I didn't suffer any loss. You know what? Our eldest brother is very good at stretching out his hands. He knocked those guys down in no time."

Liu Ruonan comforted Zhuang Sheng and quickly changed the subject.

Zhuang Sheng was half-believing and half-doubting, and turned to look at Chen Lei, but saw that Chen Lei still had an honest look on his face, scratching the back of his head and smiling foolishly with some embarrassment.

Zhuang Sheng fixed his gaze on Gao Shanshan. Gao Shanshan met his interrogative gaze and nodded quickly in agreement, "Yeah! Brother, this is the first time I've heard that our eldest brother is so powerful. He's like one of those martial arts masters on TV. It's so exciting to watch."

Zhuang Sheng was quite puzzled. His second uncle was a skilled fighter, and his eldest brother must have inherited his legacy. But to say he was a martial arts expert was a bit of an exaggeration, wasn't it?

"We just found out today that Big Brother actually learned martial arts." Seeing that Zhuang Sheng was no longer insisting on looking for the deputy manager, Liu Ruonan continued to strike while the iron was hot.

Zhuang Sheng looked at Chen Lei in surprise and said in disbelief, "Really?"

"It happened when I was a child. I've been practicing with Master Wang over the years, so I'm not rusty at it anymore," Chen Lei explained.

Zhuang Sheng seemed to believe it at this moment. He had heard of Master Wang, but he had never thought that Chen Lei had learned martial arts from him, and no one in his family knew about it.

"Did you hear that? Brother Zhuang Sheng, don't worry! If that deputy manager comes looking for trouble in the future, I'll definitely be at ease with you here."

Although Zhuang Sheng was still a little angry, he didn't want to do anything to make Liu Ruonan worry. So he took Liu Ruonan's hand and said with concern:

"If that deputy manager comes looking for trouble again, tell me. The army won't ignore your family. If something like this happens, they'll definitely take care of you."

"Okay, I understand. Don't worry!"

Liu Ruonan smiled brightly, as if today's events hadn't affected her much. No one knew what was going on in her heart at this moment. She only hoped that once the business got on track, her and Zhuang Shengge's life would get better and better.

Being able to be reborn and have a perfect ending with Zhuang Sheng is what Liu Ruonan longed for most. Finally, her wish came true, and she would never let anything unexpected happen between them.

She wants to follow him to the end of his life. She wants to feel the happiness of being his only woman and never leaving him for the rest of his life.

Zhuang Sheng still had to return to the army in the evening. After giving Liu Ruonan some instructions, he left.

After Zhuang Sheng left, Liu Ruonan gently tapped Gao Shanshan's forehead and scolded her, "You! Don't be so impulsive in the future, okay? Your brother is a soldier, he can't cause trouble."

Gao Shanshan actually realized the seriousness of the matter later and felt very guilty. She lowered her head and said to Liu Ruonan apologetically: "I'm sorry, Sister Nannan, I know I was wrong. I was just too worried about you."

Liu Ruonan held Gao Shanshan in her arms, rubbed her little head and comforted her: "It's great to have such a good sister."
