Listening to Li Yan's advice, Li Jie calmed down. The more she listened, the more she felt he was right. The challenge she was facing now was not ordinary people, but highly trained, ruthless, purpose-driven professional assassins! If she couldn't even get past this hurdle and left because of this little setback, that would be too lame!

"So you're saying... you're here to guide me?"

Facing her slightly skeptical tone, Li Yan glared at her: "Of course! Who do you think I am? If it weren't for training you, I would have punched you off me. Would you have managed to throw me onto the bed? Could you have smothered me with your chest? Could you have drowned me with water?"

Li Jie blushed, wanting to argue that it wasn't her chest, it was clearly a pillow. But she feared the more she explained, the worse it would get, so she decided to let it go.

"Eh? That's not right, maybe some of what you said makes sense, but your intentions weren't that pure! Would you be that kind-hearted? Initially, you just wanted to trick me into giving you artificial respiration, then eavesdrop at the door, and finally, you clearly wanted to see my body! That doesn't hide your true intentions!" Li Jie had already decided not to leave. If she's not afraid of death, what else is there to be afraid of? Saying so, she put her backpack down again, took out her wet clothes, and went back to the bathroom.

Lying on the bed, Li Yan continued contemplating how to bluff her. When she returned, he said seriously and sincerely: "You don't believe in my noble intentions? Fine, then bro will explain to you how many moves I taught you in that recent exchange!"

Li Jie looked at him coldly, wanting to see what kind of theory he could come up with.

"First move, feign weakness. My strength is greater than yours, but I deliberately let you knock me down. This is feigning weakness. In real combat, this can buy you an opportunity to launch a surprise attack. For example, if you were the assassin, once you knocked me down, you'd definitely punch me out, not cover my head with a pillow. While you pounce, I would have already seized the chance to draw a prepared dagger and directly stab you to death!"

Seeing his explanation seemed logical with some bit of reason, Li Jie reluctantly nodded in agreement.

"Second move, play dead. Equally suitable for you, according to the previous assumption, if the enemy punched you down, regardless of the pain or unpleasantness, don't try to be strong, just play dead! Then when he's not paying attention, use your weapon to stab him to death!"

"..." Li Jie nodded, without commenting, wanting to see what else he could come up with.

"Third move, play dead and don't move. Whether you are speaking or trying to touch my computer, I remain still because it's a test. Endure the test, and can make your move when he's least wary."

"Ha! Then why did that bottle of water make you react? Weren't you supposed to be playing dead?" Li Jie immediately taunted.

"Good question, that's the fourth move, timing. If you were the enemy, when you checked the computer and got the water, I would have seized the opportunity to act. Earlier, I didn't go that far with you."

"..." Li Jie felt he seemed to make sense in everything. "You let me douse you with water!"

"Correct, here comes the fifth move! You were originally about to splash it in my face, but I took it upon myself to catch it, poured it into my mouth, then sprayed you with it! Could you see then? If it was the enemy..."

"You stabbed me to death again! Ha..." Li Jie felt he could surely come up with ten moves!

"A student that can be taught, knowing how to infer from one instance." Li Yan smiled slightly and continued: "The sixth move is naturally to counter-attack when the enemy is about to continue attacking. The key to this move is not to hesitate. Even if the opponent is a female, you must pour water on her head! If it were an enemy, even if it were women and children, you must cut them down."

"Then why didn't you pour it on my head? Didn't eat, and no strength in your hand?" Li Jie mocked.

"Hehe, this brings us to the seventh move. Splashing your chest, isn't that more effective than the face? In fighting an enemy, it's the same. Where to hit, where to stab, it's not about venting anger, but about effectiveness. See, this move of mine against you, broke your defenses and disabled you."

Li Jie rolled her eyes, "Go ahead with the eighth move!"

"The eighth move is about investigating and understanding the enemy's information. You might not consider it a move, because earlier, I didn't come out fearing you were crying from anger, so I went to listen."

Li Jie was somewhat surprised. Did this guy almost make someone die of anger, and does he know he's that annoying? Would you really care if I was crying from anger? If you care, why do you continue to provoke people? Are you a sadist?

As she silently criticized, Li Yan continued: "Then comes the ninth move, noticing your weakness, setting a trap, provoking you to fall into it and then easily claiming victory."

"Despicable..."

"Even a despicable plan requires a silly girl to fall for it! Seems it wasn't me who put the condition forward earlier, right? Sis? Wasn't someone too eager to be my lady grandmother?"

Seeing his annoying smile, Li Jie felt that this guy loved provoking people today! She again pretended to pounce over.

"Again? Want me to punch your nose flat?"

Li Jie, however, went to the bedside and directly said: "Move over a bit, give me half!"

"..." Li Yan was surprised, "Girl, you came to sleep on the floor!"

"And why?" Li Jie directly sat down, "From your nine moves, I deduce one thing, that is, to have thick skin and a ruthless heart, so why should I be polite to you? Move aside!"
