"Hehe, Mingyue, he really doesn't seem to know how to talk. Don't be angry, just leave it to me!" Li Jia said calmly to Hai Mingyue in her arms. Hai Mingyue nodded. Li Jia was her hero. This time, Li Jia took the initiative to shoulder the responsibility of being a hero. So, although Hai Mingyue was also worried that Li Jia would be defeated by Horton Charles, she chose to believe in Li Jia. Since she had heard Li Jia say "I love you," then Li Jia was destined to be the hero who would protect her for the rest of her life!
"Let's go, let's get out of here, it's not convenient." After saying that, Li Jia put his arm around Hai Mingyue and walked out of the teahouse first, with a relaxed and calm smile on his face, as if what awaited him was not a duel but a game.
Li Jia's performance caught the attention of Hai Fei, Bai Zirou, and Wang Yuying, who were pleased with his composure. Although Li Jia's appearance was not particularly striking, his calm demeanor alone was enough to demonstrate that he was an extraordinary man!
"What rules?" After Li Jia walked out of the teahouse, she stopped, put her arm around Hai Mingyue's shoulder, and asked the ashen-faced Horton Charles in a low voice.
"It's simple, three punches. You hit me three times, and I'll hit you three times! The one who doesn't fall down is the winner!" Li Jia nodded slightly at Horton Charles's suggestion, but his next words made her want to teach this arrogant guy a lesson.
“You can wear your clothes, I’ll take them off! You can even put a layer underneath!” After saying that, Charles Horton took off his coat and then his tight T-shirt, revealing his powerful muscles that exuded explosive strength. Several scars could be vaguely seen on his muscles. After taking off his clothes, he stretched his muscles on the street in the dead of winter.
"Hehe, this guy's muscles are pretty good. Do you want to see mine?" Li Jia whispered teasingly in Hai Mingyue's ear.
"We can begin!" Before Hai Mingyue could speak, Horton Charles was already ready. He waved to Li Jia and got ready on the other side.
"I'll let you hit first, don't say I didn't give you a chance! Three punches, all at once!" Hearing Horton Charles's words, Li Jia's lips curled into a faint smile, and she gently said to Hai Mingyue, "Wait for me."
Then, standing less than three meters away from Horton Charles, Li Jia moved her wrists in a seemingly serious manner. Under Horton Charles's disdainful gaze, amidst the worry of Bai Zirou, Wang Yuying, and Hai Fei, and with Hai Mingyue's faint smile, Li Jia made her move!
The three-meter distance was covered in an instant. As Li Jia's figure reached Horton Charles, Horton Charles's body flew through the air as if hit by a train, and then crashed into the luxury sports car parked to the side with a thud, becoming completely silent.
This change caught everyone completely off guard. From the moment Li Jia stood there until she suddenly started moving and returned to Hai Mingyue's side, the entire time took no more than five seconds. It wasn't until Li Jia leisurely walked into the teahouse with Hai Mingyue in her arms that the people standing outside finally realized what was happening!
The sports car quickly disappeared in front of the teahouse, and everyone, including Haifei, left the teahouse. However, before leaving, Haifei went up to Li Jia, gave her a thumbs up, nodded in approval, and then left.
Bai Zirou and Wang Yuying looked at Li Jia as if she were a monster. Li Jia's punch just now seemed casual, but the power it produced was astonishing.
"Li Jia! How about taking me as your apprentice?" Wang Yuying, dressed in an extremely avant-garde denim outfit, stared at Li Jia with eyes that seemed to have discovered a treasure, and the words that came out of her mouth were exactly what was expected.
"Come on, I don't take female apprentices, especially not someone as beautiful as you, too much trouble! If there's nothing else, Mingyue and I will be leaving now! We'll treat you two to a meal later. I really don't understand, why are you staying at this teahouse instead of spending the New Year at home..." Li Jia muttered, putting her arm around Hai Mingyue as they walked out of the teahouse.
In the car, Li Jia finally had a chance to gaze into Hai Mingyue's eyes. Involuntarily, the two completed the passionate kiss they had started earlier. After a moment of shortness of breath and chest tightness, Li Jia and Hai Mingyue ended their lingering kiss that transcended worlds. Li Jia once again took out the crescent-shaped pendant that had broken in two and gently asked, "How exactly did this break?"
Hai Mingyue reached out and took the pendant that had been split in two, then stared at it for a long time before slowly replying, "It was broken by someone..." Her words seemed to indicate that she didn't want to talk about it anymore.
"Alright, if you don't want to talk about it, then don't. I'll take you home." Li Jia stopped pursuing the matter and started the car, heading towards the Bayi Apartment where Hai Mingyue lived. Hai Mingyue leaned on Li Jia's shoulder the whole way, her smile never fading.
"Alright, go back and get some rest. I'll pick you up tomorrow, and we'll have breakfast together." Li Jia gently kissed Hai Mingyue on the forehead and then said with a smile.
Hai Mingyue nodded happily, acting like a little girl. She looked into Li Jia's eyes, suddenly kissed Li Jia on the lips, then pushed open the door and ran out giggling. Even her walking posture was bouncy, which made Li Jia, who was in the car, smile knowingly.
