Martial Arts Song

Chapter 278 Sister Lan
Because the details of this Sister Lan were not yet clear, although Chen Qing noticed her gaze, he did not look at her in advance in order not to expose himself as a master who could sense gazes and had reached the "transformation" of kung fu.

Instead, he waited for the other party to come over and start talking before he followed the voice.

Then, he discovered that this Sister Lan was a little different from what he had imagined.

In the world of Chen Qing's previous life, lesbianism was a very common thing, and he had seen quite a few.

In my impression, one of the lesbians would dress in a more neutral way, such as cutting her hair short and wearing masculine clothes.

Lin Manli is a down-to-earth woman in every aspect, so Chen Qing thought that Sister Lan was most likely of a more neutral style.

But the person who walked towards him and Lin Manli and asked who he was was not like that.

The Sister Lan that Lin Manli mentioned was a woman wearing a satin cheongsam and a thin shawl. She was about 1.7 meters tall, with a curvy figure, her hair tied up, and looked gentle and dignified.

Judging from her appearance alone, this is a woman who is more feminine than Lin Manli!
Seeing the other person like this, Chen Qing couldn't help but be a little surprised.

While he was surprised, Lin Manli heard the other party's voice, looked in the direction of the voice, and said stutteringly: "Well... I'm here... That... he is..."

Faced with the gentle and dignified "Sister Lan", she was so nervous that she stuttered a little and couldn't tell Chen Qing's identity for a long time.

After seeing this, Chen Qing said calmly: "I am her husband, I already know about your affairs."

"husband?"

"Sister Lan", who had been gentle and dignified and walked over with a smile, gradually faded her smile and narrowed her eyes after hearing Chen Qing's words.

She didn't look at Chen Qing, but at Lin Manli, and asked, "Manli, is what he said true?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Manli did not dare to meet her gaze. She just lowered her head, nodded slightly, and said "hmm" in a voice as soft as a mosquito.

Upon seeing this, Sister Lan’s expression finally turned completely cold.

Then, she raised her head, looked at Chen Qing, and asked coldly: "You are her husband, where were you when she encountered difficulties?"

Because she was about 1.7 meters tall and wore high heels, she was not much shorter than Chen Qing, who was about 1.8 meters tall.

The two of them were looking at each other at eye level.

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing met "Sister Lan's" gaze calmly and replied calmly, "She only found me in the last two months."

With just one sentence, he directly labeled Lin Manli as a "bad woman" who "demolished the bridge after crossing it".

Lin Manli, who had originally lowered her head, couldn't help but look up at him in surprise.

He just ignored her and continued to look at the "Sister Lan" in front of him.

After hearing this, "Sister Lan" showed a brief look of surprise on her face.

Then, she looked at Lin Manli again, frowned and asked, "Is what he said true?"

After hearing this, Lin Manli turned around, feeling a little at a loss.

But after a moment of confusion, she finally nodded.

When it breaks, it breaks!

If she wants to end this relationship, she must be decisive.

After seeing her nod in agreement, "Sister Lan" fell silent.

After a long while, she smiled and shook her head, muttering to herself: "I originally thought that only men were unreliable, but I didn't expect that women were also..."

Seeing her like this, Lin Manli felt extremely guilty. She tried to comfort her: "Sister Lan..."

"okay!"

"Sister Lan" raised her hand to interrupt her, then took a deep breath, calmed herself down, looked at Lin Manli again, and said with a smile: "There's nothing much to say, thank you for your company during this time."

After saying that, she turned and left without looking back.

Lin Manli was stunned.

Is this... the end?
Chen Qing was also a little surprised.

He originally thought that there would be an extreme tug of war, or that the other party would make threats overtly or covertly.

But I never thought that this "Sister Lan" would be so straightforward.

This was really beyond his expectations.

However, as long as the problem can be solved, he is too lazy to delve into it.

After taking a look at the back of "Sister Lan" as she left, he lowered his head to look at Lin Manli beside him and said, "Now that we have made it clear, let's go."

Lin Manli nodded.

The two of them didn't stay any longer and turned to leave the restaurant on the eighth floor.

"Um... not eating?"

When they arrived at the elevator on the eighth floor, Lin Manli suddenly turned her head to look at Chen Qing and said, "It's dinner time now. You probably haven't eaten yet, right? Let's not eat here. We can find another place to have dinner."

The two of them came here together from East City at five o'clock in the afternoon, so Lin Manli knew that Chen Qing had not had dinner, so she made this suggestion.

But after hearing this proposal, Chen Qing frowned.

He turned to look at Lin Manli, wanting to say something, but was unable to start.

How could he, who was not a novice in life, not see what Lin Manli was thinking?

It could be because of lust, or a search for a sense of security, or maybe a bit of both.

Lin Manli, this ordinary woman, had a mysterious personality that he had been carefully creating over this period of time. Coupled with his good looks, it was normal for her to have feelings for him.

Especially in the context of this social process, the world is not safe and women still face many invisible constraints.

Most women still believe that they want to live with a man who can take on responsibilities, give them a sense of security and has good financial conditions.

Lin Manli is probably in the same boat.

But Chen Qing didn't have time to think about these things, and he was not interested in the other party.

But Lin Manli did not express her thoughts directly, but instead tried to tempt him to have dinner with her, which made it difficult for him to refuse.

"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

Seeing Chen Qing turned around to look at her but didn't say anything, Lin Manli couldn't help but blinked and spoke.

After hearing this, Chen Qing turned around and did not continue the conversation. Instead, he said, "I won't eat anymore. You can eat by yourself. I have something else to do in the evening. You also heard what Ayong said in the afternoon."

"……All right."

Hearing this, Lin Manli said helplessly: "Then I won't eat it either. I'll go back with you."

She certainly had not forgotten the embarrassment she had experienced in the afternoon.

Chen Qing frowned again, but he didn't say anything else.

Soon, the elevator arrived.

The two took the elevator from the eighth floor to the first floor.

Then, after checking out of the room and paying the deposit at the front desk, the two left the "Anping Hotel" and hailed a rickshaw on the roadside and arrived at the ferry crossing on the Bund of "Hongjiang".

Afterwards, they randomly found a ferry as they had done when they came here, and took the boat across the river and returned to East City.

……

When Chen Qing returned to the courtyard rented by the Chen family, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening, almost nine o'clock.

After he and Lin Manli returned to East City, it was impossible for him to leave Lin Manli alone in East City at night.

Therefore, he sent Lin Manli back home first and then came back.

During this process, whether taking the ferry or being sent home, it took a lot of time.

It was already past seven in the evening when they met "Sister Lan" at the "Anping Hotel" in Xicheng District.

However, things were handled very quickly over there, so most of the time was actually spent on the road.

There was a sound of a door lock opening.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Qing pushed open the gate and walked in.

At this time, almost everyone in the Chen family had gone to sleep. There were no lights in the yard, only the hazy moonlight as the Mid-Autumn Festival approached, dimly illuminating the yard.

Just as Chen Qing opened the door with the key and walked a few steps in, the same "click" sound of the door lock opening was heard.

Then, the door of a room on the first floor opened and a figure tiptoed out.

Under the dim moonlight, the figure seemed to be able to see Chen Qing clearly. He walked towards Chen Qing and asked in a low voice, "You're back. Shall we set off now?"

Although Chen Qing couldn't see the figure clearly, after hearing the other party's voice, he immediately knew the other party's identity, Xuanfeng.

The other party was a master of "divine transformation", and he noticed it immediately when he came back.

"Wait while I change clothes."

Chen Qing was not surprised by this and spoke up.

He is now wearing a suit, a gold watch and gold-rimmed glasses. This look is a little conspicuous in Dongcheng, so he needs to change his clothes.

"Okay, then hurry up."

Xuan Feng lowered his voice again and said, "I'll wait for you in the yard."

Chen Qing said nothing more and returned to his room.

About ten minutes later.

Chen Qing put away his money, gold watch, and gold-rimmed glasses, changed into a black short casual suit, and walked out of the room.

"Let's go."

Chen Qing whispered something to Xuanfeng who was waiting for him in the yard.

Afterwards, the two of them tiptoed out of the Chen family's yard and left "Sanlin Town" where the Chen family was.

With the success of his training, Xuanfeng's leg strength also increased, and his walking speed and endurance also increased a lot, so he could keep up with Chen Qing within a certain period of time.

The two soon arrived at the more prosperous street of "Sanlin".

Of course, although Xuanfeng's physique has improved, it is still far inferior to Chen Qing's "transformation".

Chen Qing walked in front and led the way, bringing Xuanfeng to Kowloon Avenue.

“The warehouse doesn’t seem to be here, right?”

Xuanfeng couldn't help but frown as he watched Chen Qing bring him to Kowloon Avenue near the "Hongjiang River".

As a master of "divine transformation", his memory is far beyond that of ordinary people.

Although he had only been to Kangqiao Road once, he had already memorized the street and the surrounding terrain.

"The warehouse is not here. I came here because I haven't practiced yet today."

Today, Chen Qing has not yet practiced the "Golden Toad Swallowing and Exhaling" method to break the limit. He is now preparing to practice.

"...Aren't we here to take away those medicinal herbs?"

Xuanfeng said in astonishment.

Chen Qing replied, "It's only nine o'clock in the evening. Although most people are asleep, how can those who are watching the warehouse sleep at this time? After I finish practicing, they will probably start to doze off around midnight. Let's wait a little longer."

"……All right."

After listening to what Chen Qing said, Xuanfeng thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he could only respond helplessly.

Seeing that Xuan Feng had been convinced, Chen Qing said no more, walked down the riverbank stairs of Jiulong Avenue, and began tonight's practice...

More than two hours later.

When it was almost midnight, there was basically no one on the street except for the dim street lights.

"Wow~"

A sound of water splashing was heard.

Chen Qing's figure emerged on the surging river surface, and then slowly swam towards the stairs on the shore.

On the stairs, Xuan Feng, who had been sitting on the stone steps waiting, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Chen Qing popping his head out. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "What kind of Kung Fu are you practicing? Why are you here in the middle of the night? And I don't think you've popped your head out of the river much."

While he was asking, Chen Qing also swam to the shore and climbed up the stairs.

Then, while taking off his clothes and wringing out the water, he looked at Xuanfeng and said, "I'm practicing the Kung Fu of breaking the limits of the five internal organs. I can't teach you this. According to the rules of the White Tiger Hall, you have to find your own method of breaking the limits of the five internal organs."

"So it's the skill of breaking the limits of the five internal organs..."

Xuanfeng nodded thoughtfully, and then tactfully stopped asking questions.

Soon, Chen Qing wrung out the water from his wet clothes and pants, leaving only a little wetness.

Then, he narrowed his eyes and said, "It's almost time, let's go."

When Xuanfeng heard this, his eyes lit up and he became eager to try it out.

……

Sanlin District, Kangqiao Road.

At midnight.

During the day, the street is filled with parked trucks and a large number of porters loading and unloading goods.

But at this time, the street was empty, with only the occasional noise coming from the self-built warehouses on both sides of the street or from upstairs where guards were drinking or playing cards.

And these noises are actually only a minority.

Most of the warehouse guards had already started dozing off at this time.

After all, you may not feel anything if you stay up late for a day or two, but if you stay up late for a long time, you will feel particularly sleepy during certain periods of time.

It is in this atmosphere.

Under the cover of night, two figures came to the intersection of the street.

I saw two figures moving slowly along the shadows on one side of the street, moving from the street entrance to the back of the middle of the street little by little, and stopped in front of two ordinary warehouses.

Then, one of the figures sniffed the two warehouses and said to the other figure in a low voice, "The medicinal materials are still there and have not been moved."

These two figures were none other than Chen Qing and Xuan Feng!
After getting confirmation from Xuanfeng that the medicinal materials were still there and had not been moved, Chen Qing in front of the door nodded, then took a few steps back and looked at the two self-built warehouses in front of him.

The next second, Chen Qing was seen squatting slightly, then jumping lightly, and the whole person jumped more than two meters high. He grabbed the eaves of the self-built warehouse in front of him with both hands, and then swung his body and climbed onto the roof of the warehouse with his arm strength.

When Xuanfeng saw this scene, he followed suit.

However, after coming here in person, he realized how much strength Chen Qing's seemingly relaxed appearance required!

He simply jumped up and grabbed the eaves, then swung his body a few times, and he felt all the muscles tense and most of his strength was used up!

Fortunately, he is a master of "divine transformation" and has absolute control over his body's coordination and flexibility.

While swinging his body, he kicked the wall pillars at the edge of the warehouse a few times, using the force to put one leg on the eaves, and then rolled hard and rolled onto the roof.

"Whoo~"

After letting out a light cry and taking two breaths, Xuanfeng got up and looked at Chen Qing who had come up earlier.

Then, he saw Chen Qing lying on a skylight on the roof, observing the situation inside the warehouse.

Under the cold moonlight, he saw that Chen Qing didn't know what he saw, but his brows were tightly furrowed.
