Chapter 808 Sparring
The little girl cried unexpectedly, and Li Huan's smile suddenly froze on his face. He looked at Zhouzhou, unsure of what to do. Not having any kids of his own, he didn't know how to console her.
He instinctively let go of her hand, and Zhouzhou plopped down on the floor, stunned for a moment before crying even louder. "I want meat!"
"You won't let me eat, and you hit me! Why is my life so miserable?"
As she spoke, the little chubby girl pounded her thighs, crying with snot and tears, leaving Li Huan dumbfounded.
He thought to himself, she doesn't even need my teaching anymore! Has she turned into a little actress? With this level of acting, she could easily scam someone into a big villa in a day.
Fifteen minutes later, he watched with a dark expression as Zhouzhou devoured her food, a huge bowl of rice disappearing quickly.
Seeing her appetite, Li Huan couldn't help but touch his own stomach. He felt quite full.
After she finished eating, he couldn't resist saying, "Zhouzhou, you've finished your meal; can we go now?"
Zhouzhou, with tear-stained cheeks and red eyes, looked at him and simply said two words: "Braised pork."
Thanks to him, she hadn't had a single bite of braised pork today. In the end, the chef, seeing her pitiful state, gave her some rice mixed with braised pork sauce, which was the only meat flavor she got.
It wasn't that she was picky about food and had a peculiar preference about braised pork; she just had a craving for the braised pork she couldn't have.
Hearing this, Li Huan felt a headache coming on. "Once you see my stuff, you'll be able to buy all the braised pork in the world."
"I'm not interested," Zhouzhou hiccuped, jumping down from her chair.
Li Huan thought she was done eating and was about to take her out, but Zhouzhou had already rushed to the window to get more rice.
Once again, she filled her small bucket to the brim. The chef's expression showed that he was used to this.
Li Huan was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but wonder, could he really support this little chubby girl?
While Zhouzhou was busy getting rice, Ye Lingfeng glanced at Li Huan and asked, "You want to be my daughter's master?"
Facing him, Li Huan became much more serious. He had heard of Ye Lingfeng's name.
He was strong--stronger than Li Huan.@@@@
After a moment, Li Huan nodded, "Yes."
"Have you prepared several golden mountains for the initiation gift?"
Gold mountains? Several of them? Is he robbing him?
Seeing the look on his face, Ye Lingfeng raised an eyebrow. "Really? You don't even have a golden mountain and you want to be my daughter's master?"
"This deal seems too unfair."
Li Huan's mouth twitched in surprise at his shamelessness.
Whoever has seen a master emptying their pockets just to get a disciple to acknowledge them?
He was already humble enough!
But Ye Lingfeng continued, "I usually give my daughter gold mountains to play with. If you don't have any, Zhouzhou probably won't even look at you."
That's not true!
Ye Lingfeng didn't say anything but looked at Li Huan, leaving it to him to decide.
Li Huan had no objections and casually nodded, "Sure, let's all join in."
He would show her just how capable he was, and then she would definitely be begging to acknowledge him as her master.
Hmph.
He had to take back the initiative!
Seeing through his intentions, Ye Lingfeng merely smiled and said nothing.
After Zhouzhou finished her second bucket of rice, the group headed to the training ground.
"I'll go first!" Zhouzhou exclaimed excitedly, bouncing around.
"Go ahead," Li Huan beckoned with his finger.
Zhouzhou immediately rushed over, her short legs bringing a gust of wind with her as she charged fiercely.
Today, she would show him that having long legs wasn't everything; as long as she had strength, it was enough!
Li Huan's eyes brightened, and without dodging, he met her head-on.
He was eager to see just how formidable this little chubby girl truly was.
Last night in the kitchen, the space was small and the lighting dim; neither of them had shown their true skills.
This time, in the spacious training ground, they could let it all out.
Zhouzhou stared at him fiercely, not backing down at all. Each punch she threw was solid, sounding painfully strong.
The two became more and more spirited as they fought.
Commander heard the commotion and quickly arrived, grabbing some sunflower seeds and sharing them with Ye Lingfeng and Xi Mo.
The three sat by, eyes glued to the action.
"Not gonna lie, Li Huan has a point. Zhouzhou's technique is still a bit too straightforward," Commander remarked.
Whether it was Li Yuanming or Xi Mo teaching her, they focused on head-on confrontation.
Li Huan, however, was much more cunning, using all sorts of moves, which caught Zhouzhou off guard and made her struggle to respond.
Indeed, it's not that one shouldn't fear head-on fighting, but rather fear the sneaky tricks--that's also a common flaw among Xi Mo and the others.
When they chose Li Huan to be the undercover agent, it was precisely because he was unscrupulous and willing to do whatever it took to win.
After more than half an hour, Zhouzhou finally took two steps back, wiping the sweat from her forehead, her little face full of disappointment.
Dropping her head, she walked to Ye Lingfeng, burying her face in his chest, murmuring, "I lost."
Li Huan, exhilarated and smug, said, "Little girl, you should hurry and bow to me as your master!"
"I won't!" Zhouzhou lifted her head immediately, baring her teeth at him.
Ye Lingfeng comforted her, stroking her head. "No worries; Daddy will help you get back at him."
