Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Xi Chenxiao frowned when he heard Su Jin’s words. He did not suspect the first lady in the beginning. At least not until he heard Xi Shi’s report that she was the one who bought the burial plot for Su Jin’s mother. Xi Chenxiao suddenly stood up and pulled Su Jin towards the training studio. At the thought of some assassins lurking around for so long and Su Jin not having any ability to protect herself, he said seriously,
“I’m just guessing. From now on, you must learn martial arts!”
Su Jin’s face filled with reluctance when she heard this. She really wanted to reject the devil’s training. Before, she could say that she was pregnant. But there’s no child now, so she had no reason to continue rejecting him. Su Jin could only cheer herself on silently. It was just martial arts!
After three hours of hellish training, Su Jin almost collapsed in the studio. At dinner, Su Jin wolfed down her food as if she had not eaten in years. Whatever Xi Chenxiao said to her at that time, she pretended not to hear and ignored him.
Xi Chenxiao had never been treated like this before. His face instantly turned cold, and the dining room turned into an ice cellar. It was frighteningly cold. After Su Jin ate her fill, she dragged her exhausted body and was about to go upstairs to rest when she was suddenly lifted. She hugged Xi Chenxiao’s neck instinctively and cried out in surprise,!!
“What are you doing?”
Xi Chenxiao carried Su Jin and looked at the girl in his arms. He knew that she was angry. Practicing martial arts was for her own sake. After all, they were in a situation with many unknowns. It was not practical if the girl was not able to protect herself. Just like the last time, Xi Chenxiao carried Su Jin upstairs.
“Don’t be angry.”
Su Jin glared at Xi Chenxiao unhappily when she heard this. This devil was too hateful. He clearly knew that she did not want to practice martial arts, yet he forced her to practice for so long. He was so strict and had absolutely no intention to go easy on her. Did he not know how to care for the fairer sex? Su Jin complained softly,
“Hmph, you are such a bully!”
Xi Chenxiao’s mood instantly improved when he heard Su Jin whisper. Although she didn’t say something nice, she was finally speaking to him. Xi Chenxiao’s cold aura dissipated. He was still thinking about how he could coax the girl, but this was better. Xi Chenxiao said happily,
“You’re speaking to me again?”
When Su Jin heard this, she immediately turned her head and pretended not to hear him. This matter would not end so easily. When Xi Chenxiao saw that Su Jin was still like that, he just felt that she was really cute. He smiled slightly and repeated,
“Alright, don’t be angry anymore!”
Su Jin was not going to forgive him so easily. Those three hours were exceptionally torturous. He clearly knew that she was a beginner, yet he did not start her off easy. Moreover, she practiced for three hours straight. How could she not be angry? Su Jin glared at Xi Chenxiao and said unhappily,
“Why shouldn’t I be angry? I’m just angry!”
Xi Chenxiao was helpless when he heard this. This was how martial arts was. If she could not stand this, how could she protect herself in future? It was already so dangerous now, and he couldn’t be by her side all the time; the bodyguards could also sometimes let down their guard! Xi Chenxiao said helplessly,
“Why are you so angry? I don’t seem to have done anything to you.”
Su Jin looked at her aching limbs when she heard this. If it wasn’t for the fact that she had to practice martial arts, how could this happen? Why couldn’t she just practice for an hour? Why must she do three hours? This was simply too much. Su Jin replied very seriously,
“But I don’t want to practice martial arts. Why do you insist that I practice?”
Xi Chenxiao was speechless when he heard this. Xi Chenxiao knew that Su Jin did not want to practice martial arts, but in this situation, other than learning martial arts, what else could she do? It was very safe at home, but she could not stay at home all the time! Xi Chenxiao was silent for a moment before he replied,
“It’s very dangerous now, so I want you to have some ability to protect yourself!”
Hearing this, Su Jin was even more displeased. She didn’t know martial arts – so what? She could still protect herself. She knew how to use poison, needles and the like. She wouldn’t be easily bullied. It was just that the devil didn’t know, but this shouldn’t be a reason for him to force her to learn martial arts! Su Jin said confidently,
“I know you’re doing this for my own good, but even if I don’t know martial arts, I can still protect myself!”
