487 Competition 2

Madam Wen wiped her tears and scolded Chu Leizhen gently. “General Chu, what are you talking about? Back then, you were still a small official and caused trouble. However, Teacher Lin helped you. Teacher Lin is magnanimous and knowledgeable. How can we do such an ungrateful thing? How many times has Teacher Lin helped you in the capital?”

Madam Wen’s heart still ached for her son’s bruises, but she couldn’t forget her principles.

She looked at the marks on Chu Jin’s body and could not hold back her tears. She sniffed and said, “Our Jin’er has thick skin and thick flesh. Such a small matter is nothing. It’s just that I’ve been pregnant for ten months after all. He and Nini are both my favorites. Even if a mosquito bites them, my heart will ache.”

“General Chu, if you want to be such an ungrateful person, don’t blame me for being rude.”

With that, Madam Wen glared at Chu Leizhen with tears in her eyes.

Chu Leizhen had the same beard as Chu Jin. Both of them had big arms and a round waist. At this moment, his eyes were gentle and he said softly, “Madam, don’t be angry. It’s not worth it to be angry and hurt your body. Madam, don’t worry. I will never be such a person who forgets kindness and betrays others. I will definitely help Teacher Lin’s family to the end.”

Seeing her husband’s soft voice, Madam Wen smiled through her tears.

When Lin Pingsheng sent a letter to ask for help, the couple did not even discuss it when they saw the whole story. They reached an agreement with just a look. They wanted to help. They had to help.

Chu Leizhen was actually not an ungrateful person. He only placed his wife first.

Madam Wen had always known how much he valued her. She was also in love with him and he was prone to making mistakes. In that case, she would be his clear-headed self and not let him do anything stupid.

Now that Chu Leizhen had the thought of not helping because of her tears, Madam Wen naturally wouldn’t let him do so.

Chu Jin felt stifled and remained silent.

After Madam Wen applied the medicine on him, he rested for a while and fell asleep. Before he fell asleep, he was still thinking to himself that when he fought Su Chong tomorrow, he had to remind him not to hit his face.

As long as the traces were not revealed, he could pretend that everything did not exist.

So the next day, when Chu Jin came to challenge Su Chong again, after the two of them greeted each other, the two of them said together, “Don’t touch my face.”

The two of them were stunned for a moment before they laughed.

Chu Jin laughed and said, “Young Master Su, please.”

Su Chong nodded. Just like yesterday, the two of them did not give in to each other with their fists and feet. However, this time, they avoided their faces and only attacked the fleshy parts of their backs, shoulders, and legs.

They competed in leg strength. After a series of kicks, dust flew everywhere.

Qi Xingfeng couldn’t take his eyes off it. He was secretly exerting strength in his fists.

After another day of competing, both of them were exhausted. There were definitely new injuries on their bodies, but there was nothing on their faces. They both went home tacitly.

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao were relieved to see that Su Chong was not injured.

They thought that once was enough for the competition.

Su Chong easily hid it from his parents, but he did not hide it from Su Xiaolu, so at night, he went to Su Xiaolu’s room to ask for medicine.

He said to Su Xiaoling and Su Xiaolu, “Help me keep it a secret. Don’t tell mother and Hua.”

Su Xiaolu always had all kinds of medicine ready. After taking the medicine, Su Chong returned to his room.

Su Xiaoling looked worried. “Xiaolu, don’t hide it from me. Is Big Brother alright?”

Su Xiaolu smiled and said, “It’s fine. It looks serious, but it doesn’t hurt the body. They’re the marks left behind after a normal competition. He must be quite strong to be able to fight Big Brother. If they really fought seriously, then the injuries won’t be just hidden injuries.”

“Sis, you have to believe in Big Brother. Our Big Brother’s foundation isn’t inferior to others. If Big Brother is like this, that person definitely won’t be any better. He might even be worse off than Big Brother.”

Su Xiaolu was confident in Su Chong. After all, Su Chong’s internal force was deep.

Su Xiaoling felt that it made sense and felt relieved.

For half a month in a row, Su Chong used medicine. Neither he nor Chu Jin lost. The initial competition had long become mutual training.

Although they were covered in wounds every day, the two of them were getting better and better.

Early July.

Another day of training had ended. Before Chu Jin went home, he held his horse and adjusted his breathing. He turned to Su Chong and said, “Brother Su, we’ve been fighting for so many days. I admit defeat. It’s getting harder and harder for me to beat you recently. There’s still a gap between us. I can feel that your martial arts skills are very profound and you have enough internal force. If you had used your internal force, I would have lost long ago.”

Su Chong shook his head humbly. “Brother Chu, you’re too polite.”

Chu Jin was a magnanimous and upright person. Su Chong felt that it was reasonable to interact with him.

Chu Jin smiled and said straightforwardly, “Let’s not fight anymore. I, Chu Jin, will definitely be your friend. Let’s not fight. Let’s compete on other things. Let’s compete on how much we can hold our liquor tomorrow.”

“My father said that a real man must have the ability to not get drunk after a thousand cups. Only then can his mind be firm and he can achieve great things in the world.”

Chu Jin issued a new invitation.

Su Chong did not refuse. He nodded. “Why not? I’ll be waiting for you anytime.”

“Hehe, it’s settled then. I’ll see you at Yingyue Restaurant tomorrow. Qi Xingfeng, come with us. Speaking of which, we’ve never competed in alcohol tolerance before. Your martial arts skills are not bad. I just don’t know how much you can hold your liquor.”

Chu Jin mounted his horse and said with a bright smile. At the same time, he extended an invitation to Qi Xingfeng.

He looked at Qi Xingfeng arrogantly.

Qi Xingfeng was not provoked into giving a long speech. His face turned red and he only said one word, “Okay.”

He agreed.

Chu Jin laughed and went back. Now that his face was not injured, Madam Wen would not cry even if she saw him.

After all, he had grown up. Unless she was really worried, Madam Wen would no longer check his injuries. Now that there was nothing on his face, Madam Wen would not apply medicine for him.

Chu Jin was smart and avoided his mother.

He returned to his room, took off his clothes, and applied the medicine while grimacing in front of the bronze mirror.

It was really f*cking painful, but he had also developed feelings for Su Chong through the fights. He knew that Su Chong was worth befriending. His character was not suspicious either. He was the kind of person whom he could fight back-to-back against enemies.

Chu Leizhen came to ask about the situation every day. Apart from the day after Chu Jin and Su Chong fought in June and he saw Chu Jin applying medicine, during this period of time, he would estimate that Chu Jin had applied the medicine before he came and knocked on the door to enter the room.

Chu Leizhen asked directly, “How’s the progress? How long are you going to continue fighting like this? I don’t even dare to look at your mother’s eyes.”

He was not good at lying. In any case, he would pretend that nothing had happened without seeing him with his own eyes. However, he still felt guilty, so he came to ask about the progress every day.

Chu Jin said, “Father, let me put it this way. If my future daughter can marry a man of Su Chong’s grade, I have to burn high incense to thank the ancestors for their blessings. Actually, I think it’s fine if he lacks a little willpower.”
