After leaving the Msasi Martial Arts Gym, Lou Cheng decided to stop looking for similar places since he had already decided to start his "classes" the next day. Meals had to be eaten one bite at a time, and the martial arts schools had to be experienced one by one. He would be coming here once a month. Wouldn't it be boring if he wolfed down everything in one go in the future?
He looked at the time, put his hands in his pockets, and returned to Connecticut University. When he passed by a street with more Chinese people, he happened to see a large supermarket.
Lou Cheng took out his phone, took a picture, and sent it to Yan Zheke with a smirk.
"Do you want me to buy some groceries? I think I ate all your stock last night … "
After he finished typing, he roughly read it and changed "your home" to "our home" with a smile on his face. Then, he clicked "send."
After a few minutes, Yan Zheke smiled and said, "Why do I feel like you are a 'househusband'? An Inhuman expert as a 'househusband'. This character setting is awesome ~ I'm giving him a thumbs-up! "
Following that, she added, "Rolling her eyes",
"But I remember that we haven't gone grocery shopping together … Wait for me, I don't have class in the afternoon!"
"Okay!" Lou Cheng replied with a silly smile.
He switched to the map interface and reconfirmed the route. Then, he put away his phone and walked forward leisurely.
After walking for a few minutes, the wind that passed through the streets suddenly became stronger. The sky suddenly darkened, and the temperature dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Hualala, as the wind reached its peak, the rain began to fall. Drip, drip, drip, drip.
"The weather in Connecticut sure is changeable …" Lou Cheng, who didn't bring any rain gear, looked around for shelter.
At this moment, he had an Absolute Reaction and noticed the raindrops falling. He flexed his muscles and moved his shoulders slightly. He immediately flung away the raindrops without staining his clothes.
Eh, that's interesting … Lou Cheng's eyes lit up, as though he had found something fun. He quickly focused his mind and began visualizing. He formed an Ice Mirror in his heart and displayed the minute changes in various parts of his body.
Compared to the past, his control after reaching the Inhuman stage was so strong that it could be said to be abnormal. He felt as if his brain was like a supercomputer, instantly extracting the information collected from every part of his body and rapidly giving feedback, giving orders to each of them.
His tendons bulged slightly and his veins pulled. Lou Cheng kept flexing his muscles, shaking off the raindrops that fell on his body. From his shoulders to his arms, from his chest to his lower abdomen, from his thighs to his ankles …
In the beginning, he was a little flustered. He cared about his brother, but lost his sister-in-law. He could care about his upper body, but he couldn't care about his lower body. He could care about his left, but he couldn't care about his right. As the rain fell, a few wet spots quickly appeared on the surface of his body, especially his head. Unless one was a Physical Invulnerability expert, one wouldn't dare to cultivate too deeply. Just by pulling on the skin and small muscles, one would definitely be slower by half a beat.
Step by step, Lou Cheng walked "leisurely" in the rain. He slowly grasped the rhythm and was no longer in a hurry. Everything was in order.
It was as if he was immersed in a symphony, letting every part of his body play the role of different instruments, playing a beautiful melody in an orderly manner, intoxicating his soul.
In the RV in the next block, Smith looked at the surveillance screen and shrugged. He said to his subordinate who was drinking coffee next to him in confusion.
"Is he a poet? Why is he so happy to be in the rain? "
"I don't understand … What a strange Easterner." The black-haired, brown-eyed member of the Homeland Security Bureau shook his head.
The rain in Connecticut came and went in a hurry. When Lou Cheng "strolled" to the outdoor cafe, the dark clouds had already dispersed and the sun shone into the wind.
Huff … He exhaled and wiped the dense cold sweat on his forehead. He felt both tired and refreshed.
That experience just now was great. It was as though he had become a "god", a "god" who controlled his body. He had the confidence to reveal everything within!
Is this how it feels to have a breakthrough in Ice Mirror?
Encountering Gods in the Void, Self Reflection?
Ice Mirror was said to be the most difficult martial arts below Physical Invulnerability. It was the core control of many of the Ice Sect's martial arts. Not only was it difficult to master, but it was also difficult to improve. After Lou Cheng completed his transformation and entered the Inhuman stage, he thought it would become stronger. Who knew that it wouldn't improve at all. But today, he had a breakthrough for no reason because of the rain.
"After arriving in America and meeting Ke, my body and mind are satisfied. My latent impatience is gone, my mind is stable, and I already have the foundation. Is that why I was able to gain something by chance?" Lou Cheng thought, surprised, delighted, and amused.
Damn it. Why does it feel like I'm practicing Dual Cultivation … He couldn't help but complain. He examined himself again.
The rain just now was rather heavy, and he had just made a breakthrough in his control of Ice Mirror. It was inevitable that he would have trouble controlling his body. There were many wet marks on his body, especially on his hair, which was sticking to his body.
However, after walking in the rain for more than ten minutes, most of his body was dry. It was still unbelievable!
Shaking his clothes, Lou Cheng raised his right hand and wiped his hair, wiping off patches of frost and ice crystals.
He switched to his other hand and wiped his hair again. A little mist spread out, and his hair was completely dry.
"Not bad!" Lou Cheng showed the satisfaction of a full meal. He walked to the bar counter of the café and ordered a cup of cappuccino on a whim. He found a table and sat down. Sipping his coffee, he looked at his phone and searched for information on the Geruga Sect in English, leisurely waiting for Yan Zheke to end her morning class.
He had already taken a copy of the relevant information in Chinese from the Ice God Sect, but it was still lacking.
On the other side, in the RV.
"Boss, look!" The surveillance staff looked up in surprise and shouted to Smith.
"What?" Smith put down his cutlery and looked over.
His subordinate pointed at the screen and said, "Boss, he walked in the rain for thirteen and a half minutes, but only a small part of his clothes and pants were wet!"
Smith approached and carefully examined the playback. When he saw that Lou Cheng had mistakenly dried his hair with the power of frost and flame, he suddenly understood and explained to himself,
"This should be some kind of application of his superpower. Hmm, it's very detailed and wonderful. Write it in the report and add it to the data."
"Yes, boss." The staff cleared his doubts.
…
At noon, Lou Cheng met up with Yan Zheke and Auntie Du. They found a famous old Chinese restaurant and filled their stomachs.
After that, the couple left Auntie Du to pass the time and went to the supermarket hand in hand. They went straight to the food section and saw a dazzling array of vegetables, fruits and all kinds of meat.
"What do you want to eat? It's my treat. "Yan Zheke showed her dimples and smiled sweetly.
"…" Lou Cheng was stunned for a moment and said in annoyance, "I forgot to look at the menu. I don't even know what to ask Auntie Du to cook tonight. Just buy whatever you want."
Cough, I didn't think about this at all last night …
Forgot to look at the menu … Yan Zheke gritted her teeth and glared at him. Under the light, her cheeks became redder and redder. She snorted, "What else do you remember!"
"Haha, I'll look into it later. When I'm confident, I'll give Auntie Du a day off and we'll cook on our own!" Lou Cheng laughed embarrassedly, avoiding the important and dwelling on the trivial.
The episode passed quickly. Yan Zheke pulled Lou Cheng and Lou Cheng pushed the shopping cart and walked to the front of the meat section.
The girl looked at it with interest. She picked up the food and put it in the car with interest. She muttered, "I'm not sure.
"This steak looks good. This cowboy rib is good too …"
Lou Cheng listened in a daze, and then asked with admiration, "You're right.
"Ke, have you bought here before with Empress Dowager and Auntie Du?"
Otherwise, how could she choose so quickly and confidently?
Yan Zheke looked up at him and answered matter-of-factly,
"No, it's my first time today."
"… Then what are your standards?" Lou Cheng blurted out in surprise.
Yan Zheke glanced at him with a look that said, "Are you stupid?" and said confidently,
"Based on the price. Usually, the expensive ones are the best ones!"
"That makes sense …" Lou Cheng was speechless.
After getting the affirmation, Yan Zheke raised her head and put the meat she wanted into the cart. She added, "Look at them. They look better than the ones next to them. The texture is so beautiful."
"I can't tell …" Lou Cheng didn't dare to refute. He followed the confident Ke around the food section and watched her pick up the food excitedly.
Finally, they went back to the vegetable section to replenish their vitamins and plant fiber.
"Cheng, what is this?" Yan Zheke pointed at a piece of green and asked curiously.
Lou Cheng stared at him and answered confidently, "I'm sorry.
"I don't know …"
"I don't know either. I don't even know the words …" Yan Zheke nodded in agreement.
After that, they looked at each other and laughed inexplicably.
After checking the words and knowing the scientific name, Yan Zheke still didn't know what it was called.
"Let's buy some and try it!"
With Lou Cheng by her side, she was eager to try new things.
Just like that, they bought two full carts and each pushed one to the checkout section. As they looked at each other, they suddenly had the subtle feeling of starting a family and living together.
Their lips curled up. The couple lined up to pay. Although they bought a lot of food, it was not eye-catching because there were many people who bought a week's worth of food in one go here.
Being good at using the freezer was a major feature of life in America.
After paying the bill, Lou Cheng easily picked up several large bags and followed Yan Zheke out of the restaurant.
After passing by the two white students, they went out and waited for Aunt Du to drive over.
One of the two white students turned around and looked at Lou Cheng's back with a puzzled expression.
"What happened?" The tall, strong, freckled, brown-haired student asked his companion in confusion.
"Nothing." The blonde youth with thick arms and devil tattoos shook his head.
He just felt that the Asian youth with the bags of food looked a little familiar.
The freckled brown-haired student didn't dwell on the question and said, "George, we can't become martial arts apprentices. Why don't we try out Chinese martial arts? You saw the King of Youth League. Peng and Lou are very good! "
"Let me think about it." The blonde youth frowned in distress.
…
Back at home, Yan Zheke started her homework, Lou Cheng started his daily exercise, and Du Yan prepared dinner.
By the time they finished eating, the sky was already dark. Yan Zheke went back to her room and turned on the lights, illuminating the room with a faint yellow glow.
"Just a little more and I'm done. This professor gives the most homework!" The girl stretched and complained to Lou Cheng. Then she buried herself in her homework.
At this moment, she noticed Lou Cheng bringing a chair over and sitting beside her. He turned on the table lamp to make the light brighter.
Then he sat down silently with a book in his hand. He studied it seriously and accompanied her in silence.
"Cheng, what are you reading?" After a few minutes, Yan Zheke couldn't hide her curiosity and turned her head to ask.
Lou Cheng waved the book and smiled.
"Recipes."
Pfft … Yan Zheke snorted and pursed her lips. She turned her head and looked to the side. The dimples on her cheeks deepened. She felt that the light in the room was very warm.
