"What video? For cooking? "Qi Fang recalled when they moved.
… Mom, you really can't get over it … Lou Cheng smiled sheepishly. "Just a casual one."
"Then hurry up. I still have to go grocery shopping. Why did you have to be in such a rush when you called yesterday?" Qi Fang grumbled.
She really does look disgusted … Lou Cheng complained inwardly. He got up and walked to the bottom of his calendar. He turned on the camera and switched to the shooting interface.
Qi Fang took it and asked hesitantly,
"Just press here?"
"Yes. Press it after twenty or thirty seconds." Lou Cheng reminded her. "Start when I say start."
"Alright, alright. Stop nagging." Qi Fang took two steps back and placed her son's image in the center of the phone.
In the past, Lou Zhisheng had a literary heart and loved to take photos. He always used to borrow his friends' cameras, and Qi Fang also had some basic skills. Because of this, Lou Cheng had several photo albums, including many of his dark history when he was young and ignorant. When their business declined and they had to run around for survival, the old couple finally gave up this hobby.
"Start!" Lou Cheng got into a stance and slowly punched and kicked in front of the calendar. It was natural and elegant. It was much more stylish than the old men and women practicing Tai Chi in the square.
He lowered his shoulders and was about to push out with his left hand when he felt a sudden chill in his body. He lost all feeling in his arm, leaving behind only a cold and stiff sensation.
Lou Cheng was about to use the realm of Encountering Gods in the Void to control his entire body. He shook his shoulders and pushed his arm out like an external weapon. However, he was a beat too slow. There was an obvious pause.
"What's wrong?" Qi Fang asked, puzzled.
Lou Cheng quickly put away his restlessness and forced a smile.
"That posture just now wasn't right. It wasn't aesthetically pleasing. Mom, let's do it again. Do it again."
"Yo, you're getting more and more gentlemanly!" Qi Fang didn't find anything amiss and mocked her son.
"Be gentlemanly and not warm." This was the most popular saying in Xiushan.
"Mom, I'm a famous person now." Lou Cheng lowered his eyes and explained with a smile.
After a short break, he repeated seven or eight moves. Because he controlled it well and the time was short, he didn't suffer any backlash and successfully finished the recording.
After taking back his phone, Lou Cheng stood there and watched his mom leave with her grocery cart. When he heard the door close, he let out a long sigh.
After a brief discussion, he opened the app, logged in to Weibo, and uploaded the video with a caption,
"Recuperating!"
Not long after the post was sent out, it was flooded with comments. Lou Cheng saw one reply after another.
"It's good that you're fine!"
"Wow, someone's dead!!"
"Master Tai Chi?"
"I'm fine! Those people worry's for nothing! "
"It's......
"Sob sob sob, hug Cao Zi and cry together!"
"Hug Fan Fan and cry out loud."
"How did you get injured? Don't tell me you were really attacked? "
"It's too fake to say that he was attacked. Which Inhuman would dare to guarantee that they could seriously injure Lou Cheng? If he's a Physical Invulnerability expert, he won't just be severely injured! "
.
Amidst the heated discussions, the dark clouds hanging over Lou Cheng's fans were swept away.
..
Thinking of her son's exaggerated appetite, Qi Fang bought a lot of groceries and dragged the cart back downstairs.
In the shade of a tree not far away, a reporter wearing a pair of resin glasses was quietly watching.
"So much? There aren't many customers coming in today … "
"Did Lou Cheng come home? The video he just posted did feel like home! "
"My days of waiting here were not in vain!"
The reporter was so excited that his pores opened. He felt that he had found a big piece of news.
He silently calculated the time. After dark, he followed a resident into the elevator and arrived at the entrance of the building that he had already investigated.
Knock, knock, knock. The reporter knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" Lou Zhisheng, who was watching the news in the living room, opened the security door without looking through the peephole and saw a stranger.
"Hello, I'm a reporter from Xing Province Evening News Online. I would like to interview Lou Cheng," said the reporter with a smile.
Lou Zhisheng had only been interviewed by Xiushan's local media in the past year and participated in topics such as "Lou Cheng's growth" and "The Family Upbringing of the Heavenly Son of the Era". These were all pre-arranged. Therefore, he was inexperienced in such matters. He subconsciously turned his head and shouted in the direction of the room,
"Cheng, a reporter is looking for you."
He's really here! The reporter was delighted. The digital camera hanging in front of his chest couldn't wait.
Lou Cheng was at a stage where he didn't want to meet outsiders or be interviewed. He didn't want to expose his problems to the public. He took a deep breath, walked slowly to the door, and covered half of his face with his hand.
"Please contact the Foreign Affairs Team of Longhu Club for interviews."
"Dad, close the door!"
"… Okay." Lou Zhisheng was stunned for a moment. He closed the door with a bang.
The reporter didn't force his way in. He was facing a monster who could tear apart tigers and leopards. Even if he was injured and still recovering, he wasn't someone he could think of. Moreover, with Longhu Club as his backer, there was no way he could fake news of "Lou Cheng hitting a reporter".
Of course, he wasn't disappointed. After this incident, the headlines were already in the bag!
He didn't leave. Instead, he leaned against the elevator and typed on his phone.
"Lou Cheng secretly returns home. Afraid of interviews, afraid of meeting people, afraid of hidden dangers!"
Well, I said afraid, not sure!
When this news came out, the speculations and discussions that had died down were revived. Many reporters gathered in Xiushan, fighting to be the first to get an exclusive.
Lou Cheng couldn't get enough of the harassment. He had no choice but to ask Longhu to send security personnel to block the door. As for Dad and Mom on their way to work, there were security personnel on the surface and military in the dark.
However, there were also guests who couldn't be stopped. After Longhu Club's Foreign Affairs Team tactfully rejected the Xiushan government's proposal to visit, Director Xing Chengwu, who carried countless expectations and burdens, stepped into Lou Cheng's house as an elder.
"Uncle Xing, take a seat." Lou Cheng tried his best to relax and appear natural.
If it was just a simple visit from an elder without any "official show," he should be able to hold on until the other party left without making a fool of himself. Well, if he didn't exercise, it would be just like how he dealt with his cousins, second uncles, grandparents, and the rest.
Xing Chengwu didn't stand on ceremony. He sat in the middle of the sofa and sized him up with a smile.
"You seem to be in good spirits."
"I've recovered well." Lou Cheng leaned forward, picked up the teapot, and poured a cup of Maojian green tea for Xing Chengwu.
Xing Chengwu was in the police force and his rank wasn't low. He had heard a little about this incident. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he asked curiously,
"Was the attacker really a Physical Invulnerability expert?"
If Lou Cheng could kill a Physical Invulnerability expert with a single whip, it would completely overturn his understanding of martial arts!
"No, it's a different training system. He has some characteristics of a Physical Invulnerability expert in advance," Lou Cheng answered truthfully, but didn't specify that it was a Cultivator.
Xing Chengwu was tactful and didn't ask. Just like when Peng Leyun, Ren Li, Ann Chaoyang, and Lou Cheng were discussing the battle, he skimmed over the parts that were unclear and unwilling to explain.
After chatting for a while, he saw that Lou Cheng looked tired. He drank the rest of the tea and stood up with a chuckle.
"You've just recovered and need more rest. I won't disturb you. When you're fully recovered, come visit us."
"Of course." Lou Cheng stood up with a smile and walked him to the door.
Watching Xing Chengwu leave, the tiredness on his face immediately disappeared. But soon, his muscles started to contort and his expression became ferocious. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead.
After a few seconds, Lou Cheng came back to life.
After Xing Chengwu left Lou Cheng's house, he took the initiative to accept an interview and said loudly,
"What can happen? He's in good spirits! "
After this incident, the crazed visits to Lou Cheng no longer existed. But there were still many reporters wandering around, trying to stop Lou Cheng day after day.
After two or three days, someone came to visit again. This time, it was his cousin Lou Yuanwei and his second son Lou Yuanchang.
During this time, Lou Yuanwei, who had seen the world with his second son, realized that his current status came from his younger brother's identity and strength. He was more worried about Lou Cheng's injury than anyone else in the family. Now that he saw with his own eyes that Lou Cheng was safe and sound, he was completely relieved.
"We're family. Pour whatever you want to drink and take whatever you want. You don't have to be polite and I don't have to trouble myself." Lou Cheng leaned on the sofa and said with a smile.
Under such circumstances, he could go a few hours without having a "relapse," and it would only happen once or twice at night when he slept.
"Okay! I like it when you say that! "Erzi smiled and busied himself, really treating this place as his own home.
After dinner, Lou Cheng returned to the company and sent Lou Yuanwei away. He smiled and looked at the scenery outside the window, waiting for his lover to come.
Ten minutes later, a well-dressed and charming young woman entered the office and asked curiously,
"You went to see Lou Cheng?"
"Yeah, he looked fine." Erzi smiled and answered.
"But I heard that he's seriously injured. Maybe he's just pretending to be fine … Why did you go to see him so eagerly?" The young woman chuckled.
Erzi smiled and said,
"Even if he has no hope of reaching Physical Invulnerability in the future, he's still an Inhuman Mighty One, a big shot with the support of Ice God Sect and Longhu Club. He also has a Physical Invulnerability master!"
"Even if he's completely crippled, what's the point of me going to see him and express my concern? It'd be a waste not to do it! "
"Yes, yes, yes. You're always so reasonable." The young woman leaned over.
…
In the early morning, Lou Cheng rolled out of bed and stretched his arms and legs in his own room. He first did still stances, then slowly practiced the routine.
His current body couldn't withstand real training. Even with the Confrontation Formula to speed up the healing process, it would still take more than a month before he could do recovery training. Currently, he could only do some small movements to harmonize his body and mind and assist in the healing process.
Therefore, there was no need for him to go to the park. Besides, there were reporters lurking outside.
A punch came from his waist. Lou Cheng's body stiffened. Apart from his head and limbs, his torso was completely frozen. He couldn't move.
This kind of situation kept happening in the past ten minutes or so, which made him gradually irritated. He couldn't wait to punch himself.
"Phew, when Lin Que was first injured, Master said that it was a blessing in disguise for him. With a comparison, he could feel Stillness and Withdrawal … I can't rush it. I'll try to understand something from not being able to fight. For example, the position of martial arts in my body, or a peaceful mentality …" Lou Cheng warned himself. He restrained his emotions and started practicing the routine again. But how could he adapt so quickly? How could he adjust his mentality so easily?
Before he knew it, it had been a month since he returned home. He met the researcher from the previous time at the military base nearby.
"We … we haven't gotten any useful results." The tech geek lowered his head in shame.
"That's normal. If we succeed in our research every time, we would have dominated the universe long ago." Lou Cheng suppressed his disappointment and forced a smile.
The military personnel nodded and said with renewed vigor, "That's right.
"However, we managed to organize the information that Ge Hui missed and obtained a Cultivation Art with core elements!"
