Seeing this, Zhou Ying didn’t say much to prevent both sides from getting awkward. Instead, she handed her a small bowl of sour plum soup and said, “This can help cut the greasiness. Do have some of it.”
Madam Bai nodded with a smile and continued eating.
After the meal, everyone took their leave after a short rest.
Of course, Yang Wanning and Mingyu stayed behind.
After Zhou Ying was done cleaning up, Mingyu came up and put her arm around her shoulder. “Sister Zhou, you haven’t forgotten about our martial arts sparring, right?”
“No, but you just drank. Are you sure you want to spar now?”
“I’m sure. 1 came here today for that. Of course, having the hotpot was great, and that’s my love now.”
“Alright, let’s just spar casually.”
“Let’s go.” Zhou Ying then brought her to the backyard.
Seeing this, Yang Wanning followed excitedly. To be honest, she had never seen two women spar in her two lifetimes, so she was full of anticipation.
After arriving at the backyard, Mingyu stretched her wrists and ankles and asked, “How about we compete using fist techniques?”
Zhou Ying nodded silently and looked at her warily.
A moment later, Mingyu rushed over. Zhou Ying dodged to the side and struck her away with a palm.
Mingyu staggered a few steps forward with a stunned expression before stabilizing her footsteps.
She turned around and looked at Zhou Ying with a serious expression. “Let’s start now.”
Zhou Ying nodded and got into position.
Seeing this, Mingyu rushed over again and tried punching Zhou Ying’s face.
She also sent a kick at Zhou Ying’s right side of the head.
This time, Zhou Ying did not dodge the attacks. Instead, she raised her hands and slammed against the tendons outside Mingyu’s arm, quickly stopping her punch.
Quickly, she took advantage of the moment when Mingyu lost her balance and grabbed her right leg.
Then, she bent her leg and tried pressing down.
When Mingyu saw this, she spun around and raised her left foot to kick Zhou Ying’s head.
Zhou Ying did a backflip to dodge it, but her grip naturally loosened.
After the two of them stood firmly once more, they clashed at close range.
Zhou Ying used Tai Chi this time.
At that moment, Mingyu clearly felt Zhou Ying’s oppression.
She found many chances and was about to succeed in taking Zhou Ying down, but a small push in the right direction always resolved her attacks. She was being stopped everywhere, and she could not even fight back.
When she thought of this, she felt aggrieved. Meanwhile, the strength of her punches became stronger and stronger.
Zhou Ying was afraid that Mingyu would really get angry, so she immediately changed to a grappling technique to subdue Mingyu.
Before Mingyu could react, she was pressed down. She was dazed for a moment, but she quickly returned to her senses. “1 admit defeat.”
Only then did Zhou Ying let go of her.
“How about we compete in spear techniques?” Mingyu asked after she got up.
Zhou Ying quickly shook her head. “No, I don’t know how to use a spear. I don’t need to spar to know I can’t beat you.”
Although Mingyu was indignant after hearing this, she knew it wasn’t good to continue forcing this spar anymore. Instead, she pestered her to discuss the martial arts Zhou Ying had just used.
Seeing this, Zhou Ying explained to her in detail how to use a small force to counter a larger force.
Yang Wanning’s eyes shone brightly when she heard that. At the same time, she resolved to learn a few self-defense moves. Otherwise, she wouldn’t even have a chance to fight back if something really happened.
On the men’s side, other than the Minister of Works, who was slightly older, the rest were all young men below their thirties.
Adding to the fact that they were drinking, the atmosphere was very lively.
Once they drank, their appetite naturally increased. When they finished their meal, it was already four hours later, and the ingredients prepared by the kitchen were also completely used up.
After sending off the guests, Gu Chengrui returned to the house with a heavy head and light feet. He saw that there was still some sour plum soup on the table, so he drank it in one gulp and went back to his bedroom to sleep..
