July 12th, six in the evening, Silk Road Hotel, Hexi City.
Lou Cheng stood in front of the mirror, smiling as he watched Yan Zheke tidy his collar and smooth out his wrinkles.
"Done! So handsome! "She looked him up and down, clapped her hands, and nodded in satisfaction.
Lou Cheng looked at himself in the mirror. His martial arts suit was white, giving off a youthful vibe. The black edges gave off a sense of steadiness, which complemented his own temperament. It made his face, which was not considered handsome, look quite attractive.
He laughed involuntarily. "Don't go against your conscience and praise me. I've always won with my inner qualities, not superficial looks."
Pfft … Yan Zheke was amused. She wrinkled her cute nose and said,
"Haven't you heard that beauty is in the eye of the beholder? Or do you not trust your wife's taste? "
Before Lou Cheng could answer, she nudged her husband's shoulder.
"It's time for you to leave. Go to Jiuwen Stadium and adjust your condition! I'll be there for Uncle and Auntie. Don't worry. "
The Battle of Warrior Sage was one of the earliest title matches. It retained many of the ancient dueling traditions. For example, the final match was a single match to determine the winner!
Due to this reason, Lou Cheng, who had several VIP room slots, "formed" a group of friends and family, including travel and lodging.
"Mm." Lou Cheng walked to the door and chuckled. "Uncle and Auntie? Have you forgotten what to call them again? After the Battle of Warrior Sage ends, we can take the opportunity to discuss the wedding while our families are together. "
"Why do I feel like you're raising flags …" Yan Zheke looked at him and joked.
"It's like the old general on the stage, with flags all over his body … Once you're in debt, you won't have to worry anymore," Lou Cheng joked.
Just as he pulled open the door and was about to leave, she suddenly pulled him back.
Yan Zheke came up to him, tiptoed, and kissed him lightly on the lips. Then, she stood straight and looked at him with a smile.
"Good luck!"
At this point, she deliberately made her tone lively.
"I'll be waiting for you to come back to discuss the wedding ~"
"Full of motivation!" Lou Cheng smiled and pumped his fist.
Then, he stepped out of the room like a general on an expedition. After taking two steps, he suddenly turned back and teased,
"Remember to call me Mom and Dad!"
"Hmph!" Yan Zheke tilted her head and looked to the side.
A second later, she turned back and watched Lou Cheng enter the elevator with her dimples.
After waiting for a while, Yan Zheke packed up her belongings and went to the lobby of the hotel. After a while, she saw the Lou couple, accompanied by Qi Yunfei, Chen Xiaoxiao and other younger generation, walking over. They were dressed as if they were going to attend a wedding.
"When Cheng and I hold a banquet, it will be like this …" Yan Zheke's bright eyes rolled up, her thoughts drifting.
As her thoughts ran wild, she stepped forward and blurted out,
"Dad, Mom …"
Before she could finish speaking, she was already stunned.
After four years of studying abroad, she was no longer the shy little girl she used to be. However, at this moment, she still blushed.
Oh no, I've been led into a ditch by Cheng!
How embarrassing!
I don't want to stay here, I want to go back!
Seeing Lou Zhisheng, Qi Fang and the others' dumbfounded expressions, Yan Zheke hated that there was not a crack in the ground for her to hide in.
She quickly recalled how she felt during the Summit Forum speech and forced herself to calm down. Visualizing the Confrontation Formula, she pretended as if nothing had happened and smiled,
"Uncle, Auntie, the car is just outside. Let's go out."
Lou Zhisheng and Qi Fang looked at each other with kind smiles on their faces. They replied in unison,
"Okay, okay, okay!"
After getting in the car, Yan Zheke had the style of Wang Gu, talking to Qi Yunfei, Chen Xiaoxiao, and Ma Xi endlessly. From time to time, she took advantage of their topics so that the Lou couple could interrupt and not feel neglected.
Twenty minutes later, they arrived at Jiuwen Stadium. The girl led them through the VIP passageway and into the private room.
Looking at the familiar faces of the Physical Invulnerability Mighty Ones walking around, Qi Fang suddenly pulled Lou Zhisheng.
"Help me check if my collar is done. Are there any threads on the back? "
"Seriously, why are you so nervous? Granny Liu entered the Grand View Garden? "Lou Zhisheng laughed and pretended to size her up." No problem. "
At this moment, he glanced outside and pointed at himself. "Should I keep it all buttoned up or unbuttoned?"
"Aren't you not nervous?" Qi Fang scolded him jokingly.
"This is being polite, being polite!" Lou Zhisheng answered with difficulty. Then, he lowered his voice and said, "Zheke's parents will be coming later. We have to make Cheng proud."
"Only you can do it!" Qi Fang said, but she was scrutinizing her husband again. She even pulled Qi Yunfei, Chen Xiaoxiao, and the rest over to provide objective opinions.
Yan Zheke was already in the Dan Stage. She had sharp eyes and ears. How could she not hear her parents-in-law's whispers? She held back her laughter and deliberately went outside to welcome her relatives, leaving them some space in the private room.
After a few minutes, she saw her father, Yan Kai, and Empress Dowager, Ji Mingyu, walking in hand in hand. They were so affectionate as if they had just been married.
"Where are Grandpa and Grandma?" Yan Zheke asked curiously.
"They went to chat with their old friends," Ji Mingyu replied with a smile. "They were worried that Lou's parents would be too nervous and stressed."
"That's true." Yan Zheke heaved a sigh of relief and relaxed her brows.
"You're siding with an outsider! First, you asked us to come back early from Kingstown, and then you secretly flew straight to Lou's place. You haven't been home for several days. You're not even married yet! "Seeing her daughter's smile, Ji Mingyu's face changed. She scolded her daughter, and in return, she acted like a spoiled child.
In the private room next to them, Cai Zongming smiled at his former roommates, Zhao Qiang, Zhang Jingye, Qiu Zhigao, former teammates Li Mao, Sun Jian, He Zi, and the non-staff member Yan Xiaoling.
"This is not a competition at all. It's more like a gathering of old friends. It's like attending a feast."
Just then, a few more people came in through the door. The leader was a chubby man with an "amiable" appearance. The other was very tall and had a restrained aura. They were Jiang Fei and Qin Rui. The other two seemed to be their girlfriends.
Looking at the room full of strangers, Jiang Fei suddenly felt a little uneasy, although he recognized Cai Zongming and the other members of the Martial Arts Club.
The voices suddenly disappeared. The atmosphere became quiet and a little awkward. But some people were born to be in this kind of situation. Cai Zongming approached and said with a bright smile,
"Jiang Fei? Qin Rui? I often hear Cheng mention you guys. By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Cai Zongming. You can call me 'Talker'. "
The estrangement was broken. With Lou Cheng as the link and Little Ming as the lubricant in the middle, everyone was about the same age. Soon, they had a good chat and the atmosphere became warm again.
On the aisle outside the door, Lin Que walked in with his hands in his pockets, wearing a white shirt and black pants. He glanced at the two boxes where his relatives were, and then at the place where the voices of Cai Zongming and the others came from. Without hesitation, he pushed open the door behind him and sat quietly in the corner, as if he was still a member of the Songcheng University Martial Arts Club.
The sky was getting dark. The audience sped up to find their seats. Comrade Shi Jianguo also came to the VIP private room where his old friends were.
He paused, took out his phone, and looked at the photos in the album. He nodded silently.
"Well, this is what Wukang looks like. I can't forget."
After confirming, he smiled leisurely and pushed the door open.
…
"Dragon King!"
"Lou Cheng!"
As the audience grew, cheers started to warm up the atmosphere. The competition didn't feel like a final battle. Instead, it felt like a festive festival.
Of course, the reporters didn't think so. They used all kinds of methods to exaggerate the tension and anticipation of the competition.
"Will it be the handover of Longhu's authority?"
"How far is Lou Cheng from Dragon King?"
"According to research, less than ten percent of people think Lou Cheng can win!"
"Lou Cheng will be the Warrior Sage in the future, but he definitely won't be the winner today!"
"Hope is zero!"
…
Cai Zongming led the conversation while browsing the content and gathering information. Seeing that it was time, he smiled at Li Mao, Jiang Fei, and the others.
"I'm going to start working!"
He took out his laptop from his backpack and set up various peripherals. After a while, he started the live broadcast.
"Everyone, it's time for you to experience the VIP private rooms of Jiuwen Stadium!"
…
In the exclusive resting room, Lou Cheng opened his eyes, got up slowly, and walked to the door.
Clang!
He pushed open the door, welcomed the flowing light, and walked step by step to the grand stage.
The moment he entered the venue, the cheers were even louder. Lou Cheng waved his hand and turned to look at the few VIP private rooms that belonged to him.
There is a little bit of light in his life there … He calmed himself down, retracted his gaze, and turned to look at the center of the arena.
Dragon King, Chen Qitao, was already standing there. He was wearing a navy blue suit, and his back was straight. He looked majestic and tall, like a volcano that was about to erupt.
