Chapter 170 Gu Zheng, the New Instructor
Chapter 170 Gu Zheng, the New Instructor
He looked at Lin Xi in horror and shouted, "Are you crazy or is that big idiot Gu Zheng crazy? I'd rather sleep with an old sow than sleep with him! Ugh! I mean, I'd rather sleep in a pigsty than live under the same roof as him!"
“Brother Wu Zheng, I have no choice. You know my second senior brother is a good-for-nothing. With his limited abilities, going to H country would be like throwing his head on his belt.”
Unfortunately, he's not self-disciplined at all. I have to wake him up every day to go for a run. He slacks off when no one's watching him. I'm really worried about him. Could you help me keep an eye on him? It'll also be a good opportunity for him to practice his marksmanship.
Giving him more ways to protect himself is tantamount to saving his life. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda!
The main reason is that I don't trust anyone else, but I trust you. Apart from you, no one can control my second senior brother.
You don't have to do anything, just provoke him every day, and he'll be like a little engine, working himself to death rather than slacking off.
"No one but you has that kind of power..."
After Lin Xi's barrage of moral blackmail and flattery, Wu Zheng finally replied reluctantly, "Fine, but let's make it clear on the premise that if he doesn't know what's good for him and goes against me, I won't care whether he lives or dies, I'll just leave on the spot."
Lin Xi was overjoyed to receive confirmation, "Okay, okay, don't worry, he wouldn't dare."
After arriving at the residential area, Lin Xi did not go home, but went directly to Gu Zheng's house.
Gu Zheng timidly opened the door a crack and cautiously asked, "Junior Sister, why are you here so early today? It's not time yet, is it?"
"Second Brother, I'm giving you a day off today."
Having been tricked several times, Gu Zheng asked uncertainly, "Really? Last time you said it was a holiday, but instead of boxing practice, you got a dog to chase me for an hour. And the time before that, you said I could rest, but you made me lie on the ground without moving for an hour. And the time before that..."
Lin Xi interrupted, "I'm really taking a break today. I have something to tell you."
Gu Zheng finally felt relieved and invited Lin Xi in. "What is it? Speak."
"I'm starting school soon, so I found an instructor to supervise you. You'll be moving over in a bit."
"Okay." Gu Zheng didn't object, and was even a little happy. Everyone was better than his junior sister. There was no one more freakish than his junior sister.
"That person is Wu Zheng."
Gu Zheng reacted even more violently than Wu Zheng, his face turning bright red and veins bulging on his forehead. "No way! You might as well just kill me!"
"Second Senior Brother, do you know why I sent him? He's always looked down on you, thinking you lack manliness. I wanted to show him my speed like the wind and my willpower like steel."
Have you forgotten about the chicken-killing incident? Don't you want to avenge that humiliation?
This is a great opportunity to let him witness your bravery and perseverance every day, to amaze him, and to make him regret his previous words and actions.
You're a tough guy, no less than a soldier, are you really afraid to live with him?
Gu Zheng suddenly stood up, clenched his fists, and said excitedly, "What do I have to be afraid of! I'm just afraid he won't dare to come! Junior Sister, just you wait and see, I will definitely make him look at me with new eyes! Even though I've never been a soldier or a policeman, I'm in no way inferior to him!"
After giving his pep talk, Lin Xixin left satisfied. Now, there was only one thing left: to buy Guyuan Pills for his master and mistress.
These past few days have been tough. The police officers are doing physical labor, while she's doing mental labor. Her brain is constantly working, solving cases during the day and then taking Gu Zheng to box, write novels, complete system tasks, and learn hacking tutorials when she gets home at night. If it weren't for the time delayer, she really wouldn't be able to keep up.
Fortunately, all the hard work was worth it. The Love Coins skyrocketed to 400,000. After buying two Qi-stabilizing pills, I still had 200,000 left.
Lin Guiying was watering the vegetable garden when she saw her granddaughter return. She went up to her and said, "Xiaoxi, I made braised pork. Please invite your master and mistress over for dinner."
She had seen how hard her granddaughter had worked these past few days, preparing different delicious meals every day. Of course, she would also invite the elderly couple to the meals that suited Fu Wenyuan and Wu Jingshu's tastes.
Lin Xi quietly pulled Lin Guiying aside, "Grandma, the Qi-Strengthening Pill is ready!"
Lin Guiying was happier than Lin Xi, because she was finally able to repay the favor. Otherwise, she would always feel indebted to the person and would feel uncomfortable.
“Alright, let’s feed them today. Your master and mistress love you just as much as we do. Even without this villa, you should still show them some respect.”
No sooner had he finished speaking than Fu Wenyuan's cheerful voice rang out, "Oh! Is it braised pork today? I can already smell it."
Lin Xi smiled and said, "Master, your nose is really sharp."
Wu Jingshu rolled her eyes. "Your master has a dog's nose. He can smell meat. As soon as he opens the window, he says that your grandma must have cooked something delicious again today. And look, he came over by himself without you even having to call him."
Lin Guiying threw down the kettle. "Let's go. It's all ready. We've been waiting for you to come."
The dinner table was much quieter today; Lin Guojun, Lin Dayuan, and Gu Zheng were all absent.
That's right. Ever since Gu Zheng moved in, he's been eating at Lin Xi's house almost every day. You can't get rid of him no matter what you do. Even when he's eating porridge or pickled vegetables, he still has to take a bite.
Fu Wenyuan asked curiously, "Is it just the few of us today?"
While serving rice, Lin Guiying said, "The shop has just been renovated, and Dayuan and his son went to clean up."
Lin Xi explained, "Master, I found a policeman to be my second senior brother's instructor, and he's waiting for him to come over."
Fu Wenyuan suddenly lost his appetite for the meat in his mouth, put down his chopsticks, took a sip of wine, and looked visibly worried.
"Master, don't worry, I guarantee that Second Brother will be fine."
She was already prepared to save 100,000 Love Coins to buy Vajra Pills for her second senior brother, ensuring he would be unharmed even if bombarded.
This is why she didn't object in the end; otherwise, she would have knocked her second senior brother unconscious rather than let him go.
As for why Gu Zheng was still trained even though he had a trump card, it was to teach him a lesson. Going to the battlefield is not so easy. He deserved to be exhausted, making his master worry so much.
Seeing that her master had no appetite, Lin Xi felt extremely distressed and immediately took out the Qi-Strengthening Pill. "Master, Mistress, these are good for your health. Here, take one each."
Wu Jingshu and Fu Wenyuan took the gifts, exchanged a glance, and asked, "Xiao Xi, what's this?"
Lin Guiying is an impatient person. "You'll know once you eat it. I've eaten it, and the feeling... tsk... Don't look at me, eat up!"
The two hesitated not because they were afraid it was something bad, but because it was too expensive. Seeing that Lin Guiying had already eaten it, they immediately stopped hesitating and stuffed it into their mouths together.
He immediately widened his eyes, speechless with surprise.
My God, what is this? Even the elixir of immortality couldn't compare!
Wu Jingshu rubbed her wrist. She had been practicing calligraphy for many years, and her right wrist had developed a chronic condition that had been painful for many years. Now, it felt incredibly light. Not only that, her eyesight was also much brighter, and she could see things more clearly.
Fu Wenyuan touched his heart, where it was beating rhythmically, and he felt that he had never breathed so easily.
The two stood up again and spun around and around, feeling incredibly comfortable, as if they had become ten years younger.
Fu Wenyuan stammered, "Xiao Xi, what did you give us to eat?"
