Chapter 948 Bet
Chapter 948 Bet
After returning the disfigured body to the ward, Fu Ling quickly disappeared into the cell...
"Sister Ling, good morning!" Luo Zixiang greeted her.
"Sister-in-law actually agreed to let you come?"
"Of course I will. Your sister-in-law is very understanding. Even if it doesn't increase your martial arts skills much, it can still help strengthen your body. Your sister-in-law is so happy that she won't be able to refuse." Luo Zixiang said proudly.
"By the way, what happened yesterday? Has the murderer been found?"
"The murderer has been apprehended by the police."
"That's good. Now I'm scared just thinking about it. Who would have thought that there would be a demon lurking in the library? If we don't catch him, who would dare to go to the library in the future? It's really scary."
After a few words, Fu Ling dismissed him with disdain: "Alright, let's put this matter behind us. Aren't you here for training? Don't bother me and Yiyi chatting here."
"Yes, yes, I forgot about the important things. Brother Jiang, I'm sorry to bother you these days."
Jiang Yan said in a very easy-going manner: "It's okay, let's go to the backyard to train."
"Okay." Luo Zixiang rubbed his hands expectantly.
"Tsk tsk tsk, I've seen people looking for trouble, but this is the first one who does it. It's really strange. Yiyi, how about we make a bet? Let's guess how many days Brother Xiang can last." Fu Ling said gloatingly.
Xiangyi was in high spirits and readily accepted Fu Ling's proposal: "Okay, what's the prize?"
"I don't want to bet too much, so let's just bet on a meal. How about the loser prepares a meal?"
"No problem, then I bet he can hold on for four days." Four days later, the two of them would return to school, and Jiang Yan would also return to the island.
Fu Ling thought for a moment and said, "Then I bet he'll find an excuse to leave tonight."
"OK, the bet takes effect immediately~" Xiangyi said with a smile.
"No problem. By the way, what are you having for lunch?"
"There should be stewed chicken. I saw my mom buy a chicken this morning."
"Stewed chicken is not as delicious as roasted chicken. I'll go talk to my aunt and have lunch at your place." He did as he said and disappeared in a short while.
At lunch, Luo Zixiang looked miserable, as if he had lost all hope in life, and his hands were shaking as he held the chopsticks.
Fu Ling laughed out loud without hesitation: "Brother Xiang, we are all friends, why are you so nervous? We are not strangers."
Luo Zixiang glared at the gloating Fu Ling with hatred. Was he shaking with nervousness? He was clearly tired, tired as hell! It was easy to talk without feeling any pain in the waist.
Whenever he thought about what he had experienced two hours ago, he deeply regretted his decision yesterday. It turned out that people like him were only worthy of studying. Fortunately, he did not join the army, otherwise, with his physical condition, it would be only a matter of time before he was rejected.
Xiang's mother didn't know what was going on and believed it, and kept serving him food: "What's there to be nervous about? Just treat this place as your own home when you come here. Xiao Luo, eat more."
"Thank you, auntie. I'm not being polite with you. I can do it myself." Luo Zixiang tried hard to force a smile.
He picked up the chopsticks and shakily put the rice into his mouth.
Fu Ling took Luo Zixiang's pain as a celebration and ate with extra relish: "Mm, today's meal is extra delicious."
"If it smells good, eat more." Xiang's mother was very happy after hearing this.
"Brother Xiang, if you can't stand it, just give up. No one will laugh at you."
"That's not what I meant. How can you give up so easily when you've made up your mind, right, Brother Xiang? I believe you can hold on for four days. After four days, a brand new you will definitely emerge."
To win, the two expressed their opinions: "Oh, what can we learn in four days? We will suffer a lot, but we won't gain much ability. We are just asking for trouble."
Xiang Yi smiled and said, "Four days won't buy you any trouble or loss. You can also learn where your limits are. With the foundation laid, you'll have a direction for your future training and won't be completely in the dark. It's only four days, Brother Xiang, you can't be unable to persevere in such a short time, right? Persistence is victory. Come on, break through yourself! Defeat yourself!"
Luo Zixiang looked at the two people talking to each other. Before he said anything, the two people stood up first.
He looked at the two of them suspiciously, worried that they would start arguing because of him, so he quickly spoke to smooth things over: "What are you two doing? Please stop arguing. I didn't say anything. Please don't get angry."
Fu Ling and Xiang Yi looked at each other and smiled.
"You wish. Will we quarrel over you? Do you think too highly of yourself?" Fu Ling retorted bluntly.
Luo Zixiang was not annoyed. He knew they were joking, and finally calmed down. He asked suspiciously, "Then what are you doing?"
Xiang Yi explained with a smile: "I made a bet with Ling Ling to see how long you can last under Jiang Yan's devilish training."
Luo Zixiang was very depressed after hearing this. He glanced at the two of them with a fake smile and asked, "So what did you choose?"
"I choose you who can stick to it to the end. As for Lingling, she guesses that you will not be able to bear it and run away today." Xiangyi glanced at Fu Ling and replied cunningly.
"Sister Ling, it turns out I'm so untrustworthy in your eyes."
"Brother Xiang, I am very optimistic about you. I believe you can stick to it. Come on~" Xiangyi smiled particularly brightly.
Fu Ling cried out inwardly, "Oh no!" He was tricked by this little girl.
I glanced at Luo Zixiang and saw that his eyes were full of fighting spirit.
How hasty! It seems he is planning to fight for his reputation even if it means making a big effort.
"Don't worry, sister Yi, I will stick to it to the end and will never let you lose."
After saying that, he didn't forget to provoke Fu Ling.
Fu Ling said indifferently: "It doesn't matter, I can still afford to treat you to a meal."
"Do you want to bet on a meal? Brother, Sister Ling, you're going to have to spend money." Luo Zixiang said with a sly smile.
Fu Ling looked at him with disdain and said bluntly, "Eat, you! Even eating can't stop your mouth!"
Although he lived in dire straits every day, Jiang Yan did not let go of even the night except during the day.
They rested for two hours in between, and Luo Zixiang was woken up just as he fell asleep.
Although it was painful, after a few days of hard training, I could clearly feel that my physical strength and mental quality had improved a lot.
When I first rested after training, I felt sore all over and couldn’t even lift my hands.
It's obviously much better now. I still feel tired, but not as painful as before. I feel it's within my tolerance range.
Jiang Yan has a very high opinion of Luo Zixiang, so he is particularly attentive during training.
"You lose." Xiangyi said with a smile.
"I really didn't expect him to stick with it. He admitted defeat and came to my house tonight for a barbecue. It's a good way to say goodbye to summer vacation."
"Boss Fu is so generous, so we won't be polite~"
