Chapter 187 Chapter 11
Ruo Ruo easily found the place the receptionist had mentioned with her work ID. Sure enough, there was someone guarding the door, but they only recognized tickets or IDs, not people. Ruo Ruo entered smoothly with her work ID.
The ticket inspector didn't even raise his head, probably because he had been specially trained. After all, many of the audience members probably don't like others to know that they love to come here.
Walking through the doorway, there was a long, dim corridor. Even though it was still daytime, the further in she went, the darker it became, until Ruo Ruo saw a faint light coming through, accompanied by the noisy sounds of people shouting and cheering.
It was chaotic, but not chaotic either. Aside from the two people fighting on stage, many people in the audience sat quietly in their seats, standing up and cheering only when the excitement got intense. There was an open area around the arena, where many excited spectators stood, unwilling to remain seated.
There are a lot of seats inside, and there are also a lot of empty seats, so it seems that every seat can see what is happening on the ring very clearly.
Ruoruo found an empty and dimly lit place to sit down, checked the time, and then turned her gaze to the stage, but she looked away within two minutes.
She didn't like this kind of atmosphere or such violent "performance".
She didn't have to wait long before another round of loud cheers rang out. She knew that the game was over, and for the next one... she indeed heard Shi Le'an's name.
The audience's reaction became even more enthusiastic, especially when Shi Le'an came on stage, the audience's cheers seemed to overturn the entire venue.
But it was really just an illusion. Ruo Ruo heard from the lady at the front desk that this venue was soundproof, extremely soundproof.
The two people in front and Shi Le'an's opponent were all shirtless, but Shi Le'an was wearing a short-sleeved shirt when he came on the court. He was tall and not particularly strong. Even though Ruo Ruo knew clearly how many muscles he had under his clothes, he still looked out of place here, especially where he was standing now.
Ruoruo didn't stop. She just sat quietly in the quietest and most secluded place she could find in the audience and watched silently.
Looking at Shi Le'an's undisguised ruthlessness, he also watched his opponent's fists fall on him.
Watching him win the final victory and the people below the stage go wild in the carnival, he bowed deeply and prepared to leave this stage full of violence.
The entire restaurant was filled with the sound of "An". Ruo Ruo stood up from the corner and walked out step by step, "Shi Le An, can we talk?"
Her voice is not loud, but it is very penetrating.
"What are we talking about? He has a game soon!" Chen Zhen, who came to cheer for Shi Le'an, turned his head impatiently, and then... then he swallowed all the words he wanted to say.
"You, you, you..." Chen Zhen couldn't even speak clearly as he looked at the girl not far away. Other people around were also looking over there. Chen Zhen subconsciously blocked part of his sight. He didn't have any other intentions, he just felt that such a beautiful girl should not be allowed to get into trouble in his territory.
However, what he didn't notice was that Shi Le'an didn't know where to put his hands at this moment. His originally flushed face turned pale. He couldn't utter a word for a long time. He just quickly walked to Ruoruo and took her hand.
Ruoruo didn't shake him off, but just led him outside like a dog.
Chen Zhen also followed behind subconsciously. He was a little confused at first, but then he realized that the girl in front might be Shi Le'an's girlfriend whom he treated like a treasure.
He couldn't help but secretly click his tongue when he thought of this possibility. If Shi Le'an's girlfriend looked like this, it would be no wonder that he had to be like a stay-at-home nanny all day long.
Some audience members also saw Ruoruo and wanted to say something, but after looking at her and then at Shi Le'an's opponent who was lying on the stage and had not yet gotten up, they could only choose to keep their mouths shut, but their eyes still followed the thinnest of the three figures leaving.
When they were alone, Ruo Ruo finally broke free from his hand and said, "Let's break up."
She was very calm, with no sadness or anger on her face, only a calm expression. When she said this, it seemed as simple as saying what to eat today.
Shi Le'an's eyes turned red without saying a word.
When Ruo Ruo was about to leave, he hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, I was wrong. I know I was wrong... I don't want to break up..."
Chen Zhen passively ate a mouthful of dog food.
He also tried to persuade her, "Sister-in-law, Le'an's physical fitness and reaction ability are very good, you..."
"Shut up!" Before he could finish his words, Ruo Ruo glared at him.
It’s true, when the girl who looked as beautiful as a fairy glared at him, he actually shuddered in his heart.
Ruo Ruo pushed Shi Le'an away again. Her tone was gentle, but her words were harsh. "You know you're wrong now? It's too late! I don't want a boyfriend who can kill me with one punch. If one day I make him unhappy, I don't know if I can hold on for more than three seconds!"
Shi Le'an hurriedly tried to explain, but Ruo Ruo glared back at him.
"I know what you're going to say. You're going to say you'd never do that to me, but people's minds are fickle. Who knows? I don't know how I ended up becoming a boxer when I was dating an ordinary coach! Who knows if people who often hang out in these kinds of situations will be subtly influenced?"
"And look at your wounds, look at all these bruises and black marks. These are all your achievements, right? Then spend your life with them! Don't fall in love, and don't promise a lifetime. With all this, you might get seriously and irreversibly injured any day. Let alone a lifetime, it's hard to imagine you could even be with me for half of my life. Are you expecting me to support you in your old age and see you to the end?"
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it's not like that. The injuries on his body just look scary, and we all have protective measures..."
Chen Zhen tried to explain, mainly because Shi Le'an was completely obsessed with love. In this situation, he didn't dare to say anything other than an apology. He was still counting on Shi Le'an to make money for him. If the girl in front of him had such an attitude towards Shi Le'an's boxing, and still made money...how could Shi Le'an make money for himself? It would be lucky if he didn't run away!
Ruo Ruo only then remembered him! Her eyes, which usually looked wide open and innocent, were now filled with rage.
"You think he's amazing? You feel bad that he doesn't box? Then why don't you send one of your relatives to try boxing? You're the one running this business, who knows, maybe one of your relatives is even more talented?"
"How can they be the same?" Chen Zhen murmured.
"Yeah, how can it be the same? You're not him, so you don't know how painful his injuries are. You're not his relative, so you don't know how important his life is to those who care about him!
Of course, maybe you know all this, but to you, his injuries are not important.
He is short of money. In your eyes, Shi Le'an's life is just a worthless life because he is poor. Such a worthless life can be exchanged for so much money by just getting a little injured. Isn't that a lot of money?
But he is also the most important person to others! He is someone else's treasure! If you really want to make money, just go up and fight for it yourself! Boss Chen, I also unilaterally believe in your talent! "
"You..." Chen Zhen was angry... but looking at the person in front of him, he couldn't get angry at all. But he couldn't accept not being angry.
The girl in front of him was right. He really didn't care about Shi Le'an's injuries, he only cared about the money he could make.
"But he came to me on his own initiative and said he wanted to start boxing again. Even the first time he boxed, he wanted to save his grandmother, so I gave him this opportunity. I am upright and have never forced anyone!"
Ruo Ruo ignored him and turned to ask Shi Le'an, "Stay or come with me? If you stay, we'll be done with it. If you come with me, don't waste time!"
Shi Le'an chose Ruoruo without hesitation. After all, the reason he chose boxing was to be able to be with Ruoruo better. Now Ruoruo was about to break up with him because of this matter, so of course he had to choose Ruoruo.
But Chen Zhen was unwilling to do so. "No, you can't leave today. Shi Le'an has a match today, and three more tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Even if you regret not wanting to play anymore, you have to finish this month! There's no reason to quit halfway."
Ruoruo stopped.
Chen Zhen thought she was scared, so he continued, "You are his girlfriend, yes, but if a woman interferes too much in a man's decision, there will be no good results. No matter how beautiful a man is, he is just a shell. As a woman, you still have to learn to understand men, my wife..."
"Boss Chen!" Shi Le'an interrupted him, "I haven't signed any contract. My girlfriend doesn't want me to fight anymore, so I won't fight anymore. I'm very happy to be controlled by my girlfriend! It's my honor."
"Shi Le'an! Don't forget, when your grandma was seriously ill and hospitalized, if I hadn't given you the opportunity to box, she wouldn't have made it through the last six months! I didn't ask you to sign the contract because I believed in you. You have to be grateful! If you leave today, you won't have to be my coach anymore. I'm not picking on you, but I hate people who don't know how to be grateful the most!
I advise you not to be too lustful. If you don't box and you lose your job, how are you going to support your girlfriend? Is she going to rely on you driving a taxi?"
After saying that, he turned to look at Ruo Ruo again. "Young people are always content with love, but you should gradually realize that everything else in this world is empty, and money is the most important thing. If you break up with Le An, I have a lot of successful people and rich second-generation people here. I can introduce you to each other for free."
The more Shi Le'an listened, the uglier his expression became, but he still bowed to Chen Zhen first, "Since Boss Chen doesn't want me to be a coach, then I might as well take advantage of today to resign. As for the gratitude you mentioned..." Shi Le'an paused.
"I didn't know how much I could earn from my first fight, but after I got familiar with this industry, I actually had an idea. I've always been grateful for letting me try boxing and giving me such an opportunity. Even if I were to fight now, the amount I should get wouldn't be right, right? As for signing the contract, I would like to sign it, but the share you offer me is too low, which doesn't comply with industry regulations. You didn't sign it because you were afraid of leaving evidence and causing trouble, right?"
"As for your mention of quitting midway, I've already mentioned this since the first time I told you I wanted to make money and get back into competition. I'll only book one match in advance at a time. I also said I'll stop playing once my girlfriend is free, to avoid her finding out. We agreed on all of this beforehand. I still have the recording. Boss, would you like to hear it?"
Speaking of gratitude, Shi Le'an is of course grateful, otherwise he would not have been willing to be treated as a fool for so long. It was all because of the past friendship. He always told himself that it was okay to suffer a little loss, and he would make it up by playing a few more games.
But she kept telling his girlfriend what to do and even introduced other men to her in front of him... He would have to become a cuckold to be able to tolerate this.
As for asking him to play games for at least a month, that was simply a joke. Two games today, three games tomorrow and the day after tomorrow... Even if you treat him like an animal, you can't treat him like this.
After leaving the house, Ruoruo was still angry. This time she was really just angry with him. Normally, he would be treated like a slave and humbled even if he didn't feel guilty, let alone now.
Even when they were sitting in front of the projection screen in the evening, ready to watch the first episode of "On the Way", Ruo Ruo still didn't say a word!
