Chapter 426 Every One of them Has a Breakthrough
Xiao Bing felt a little sad to part with this straightforward woman who dared to love and hate. After he said goodbye to Red Rose, he boarded the plane. Thinking that he would be seeing Yezi soon, his mood gradually calmed down.
Jiang City was totally different from the first time he came. This time, Xiao Bing felt like it was his home. Although he was not married yet, they only needed to get the marriage certificate. Both of them had recognized each other as soul mates long ago. She could not live without him, and he would marry no one but her.
Xiao Bing had intended to leave in the morning, but he was delayed by Red Rose. Today, she seemed to have a lot of places she wanted to go to. Xiao Bing knew that it was because she was unwilling to say goodbye, so Xiao Bing accompanied her to walk around for a day, and he was not in a hurry to leave. It was only in the evening that he boarded the plane bound for Jiang City.
It was about a two hour flight from Jingdu to Jiang City. Xiao Bing closed his eyes slightly to rest.
At this moment, everyone in Xiao’s Manor already knew that Xiao Bing was coming back. Lady Su cooked dinner in the kitchen, and the others had bought vegetables and wine. Xiao’s Manor was particularly lively, and everyone was laughing.
While Xiao Bing was not there, Xiao’s Mansion had been peaceful. Blood Wolf did not cause any trouble either.
Maggie and Yezi were playing chess. Both of them were good at this. One was young, but a genius. The other was also a talented girl. But now Yezi was obviously a little absent-minded. She had fewer chess pieces than Maggie, and it was obvious that she would not be able to win.
Maggie looked at Yezi and said with a smile, “Sister Yezi, you’re absent-minded!”
Yezi sniggered and said, “All right, don’t tease me. I just miss the bad guy. What do you think?”
Maggie giggled, her fingers skipping across her face. She said with a smile, “Shame on you.”
“If you say that again, I’ll punish you!” Yezi stopped playing chess and got up to grab Maggie. Maggie giggled and ran away. She ran into the yard and ran around Gao Fei, who was practicing with Miyamoto Shinji, when Maggie interrupted him.
Miyamoto Shinji had already recovered from his injury. His strength had returned to its peak state, and he had even recently comprehended it, during the fight with Gao Fei. He had broken through from the middle stage to the peak of the Dan-strength Stage, and he had made rapid progress. The man at the peak of the Dan-strength Stage was already a top expert, and there were not many masters like him in the whole country. If he could reach the Vigorous-strength Stage, he could be regarded as a top master even in the dark world, where there were many masters.
Miyamoto Shinji and Gao Fei’s temperaments were very different. Gao Fei’s personality was indifferent as if everything in the world had nothing to do with him. Miyamoto Shinji was ruthless. He was like his sword that would not be drawn out of the sheath easily, and if it was, there would be bloodshed.
In terms of martial arts, Gao Fei was one of a few great masters in the world. Miyamoto Shinji had learned a lot from him, so he would definitely become Xiao Bing’s most important man in the future.
Gao Fei felt quite helpless with Maggie, who ran around and used him as a shield. She kept shouting, “Brother Fei, Brother Fei, sister-in-law is bullying me.”
Of course, Gao Fei could not lose his temper with Yezi. Being treated as a shield, he felt helpless.
Yezi giggled and said, “All right, if I can’t catch you, you can go. For the sake of calling me sister-in-law, I’ll let you go.”
Maggie stuck her tongue out and giggled, “Yezi is my sister-in-law. Ah, Sister Xiaoxiao, what are you looking at?”
Su Xiaoxiao had been standing on the steps. She had watched Gao Fei guiding Miyamoto Shinji before, but now Gao Fei and Miyamoto Shinji had stopped, and she was still staring at them, lost in thought. After Maggie shouted out to her, she came to her senses and said in a slight panicky tone, “Ah, just now… I just saw them practicing martial arts. I don’t know much about it. It’s very interesting.”
Everyone could see that Su Xiaoxiao was being insincere. They knew that she was absent-minded because of Xiao Bing. However, no one pointed it out. After Xiao Bing left, Yezi was not the only one who was worried about Xiao Bing. However, not everyone could justify the right to worry about him, more than Yezi.
Some people could only hide their feelings in their hearts. In fact, it was an uncomfortable feeling.
Maggie could see through almost everything. At this time, she walked beside Yezi and said, “Sister-in-law, in fact, there is nothing shameful about that. At least you dare to admit it. People who live in the world have to dare to love and hate.”
Yezi knew that Maggie was trying to inspire Su Xiaoxiao. Even though Maggie was smart and clever and could see through almost everything, she was still young. She could see through the matters of relationship, but she did not really understand it. If she understood, she would not have always tried to persuade Su Xiaoxiao to confess to Xiao Bing, to make them a couple.
Although she had a good relationship with Su Xiaoxiao, and they had known each other for a long time, the most important thing was that she had never considered that it would make Yezi unhappy. She just thought that since Su Xiaoxiao liked Xiao Bing, she should fight for it. Perhaps she had the same idea as Red Rose. Monogamy and engagement rituals were nothing to her. Her idea was kind and simple, but it could easily bring some unnecessary trouble to others.
Because of her persistent persuasion, Su Xiaoxiao’s hidden feelings were constantly aroused, which made Su Xiaoxiao’s mood more difficult to calm down.
Yezi sighed inwardly. It was impossible for her to give up Xiao Bing and give him to Su Xiaoxiao, and Xiao Bing would not agree either. In fact, according to reality, the best way was to let Su Xiaoxiao get over this relationship early. It was also good for her. But Yezi could not talk about this with Maggie. Even though Maggie was smart, sometimes she was too smart. It was not a big deal for others to tell her about it, but if Yezi said it, it was likely that she was just afraid that others would share Xiao Bing’s love with her. Even if she really had good intentions, it would be difficult for others to feel that.
Yezi went over and took Su Xiaoxiao’s hand. She said with a smile, “Let’s go. What’s so special about those stinky men practicing martial arts? Play chess with me.”
Maggie said triumphantly, “Sister Yezi just lost to me.”
Yezi did not admit it. She said, “We have not finished that game yet, have we?”
“That’s good. The chessboard is still intact. Shall we continue to play?”
Yezi rolled her eyes and said with a smile, “You play with your Sister Xiaoxiao. I’m going to the kitchen to help Auntie. I’ll cook a dish for the bad guy myself.”
After saying that, Yezi ran to the kitchen. Maggie stood behind her and said, “You’re so cunning!”
Maggie pulled Su Xiaoxiao and began to play chess. Dumbass and Zhan Hongyan came back after practicing martial arts. The moment they came in, they talked to Gao Fei and Miyamoto Shinji, mainly about kung fu.
These people in Xiao’s Manor were all crazy about martial arts, so every time they got together, they would have a long talk. They had developed a good relationship after doing this for a long time.
Strictly speaking, Dumbass and Zhan Hongyan were Gao Fei’s half-disciples, and their other master was naturally Xiao Bing. But because Xiao Bing was too busy, they spent most of their time learning martial arts from Gao Fei.
Miyamoto Shinji had learned a lot from Gao Fei as well. Although Gao Fei was not very old, he was highly respected by the three of them.
Dumbass had broken through to the middle of the Transforming Strength Stage, and Zhan Hongyan had finally reached the Transforming Strength Stage. Both of them could be regarded as the top masters in the world. Of course, if the masters who were at the Acquisitus Realm could be regarded as strong ones, they would barely be recognized. They were not the real top masters before they stepped into the Innate Realm.
The preparation for dinner was finally done. The girls were all playing chess in the living room or cooking in the kitchen. The men were basically talking about martial arts in the yard. Although Gao Fei appeared cold, he taught these people without any reservation.
While they were chatting, they suddenly saw the hidden sentries around Xiao’s Manor suddenly flying to the center of the courtyard. They all stood together and then shouted in the direction of the door, “Welcome back, Brother Bing!”
Xiao Bing did not like them to address him as Master Hou. At first, they wanted to call him Master Xiao, but he stopped them. It sounded too awkward and pretentious. So Xiao Bing let them call him Brother Bing.
Gao Fei and all the others looked toward the gate. Xiao Bing walked in with a smile, carrying a backpack on his back. He waved his hand and said, “Go back to your posts.”
All the people quickly dispersed from their sight.
Dumbass said excitedly, “Brother, you’re finally back!”
Xiao Bing took a look at Dumbass and said with a smile, “Good, your strength has actually increased again. Your speed… But it’s reasonable. You are a natural genius in martial arts. With good genes, you are naturally indestructible. If you had studied under a famous teacher since childhood, you would have been a master at the Innate Realm.”
Xiao Bing looked at Zhan Hongyan again and praised, “You have broken through from the Concealing Strength Stage to the Transforming Strength Stage? This is a qualitative change… Congratulations.”
“Oh, Miyamoto… You are really a top master now… Even if I let you take the position of Lord Long, you can take the lead now.”
Miyamoto Shinji said placidly, “I still have a long way to go before I become Lord Long.”
Xiao Bing looked at Gao Fei again. They looked into each other’s eyes and said nothing. They did not need to be grateful to each other. Everything was in their hearts.
At this time, several girls rushed out of the hall. Yezi ran out of the kitchen quickly and headed straight to Xiao Bing. She was like a butterfly. Xiao Bing opened his arms, and his heart was filled with warmth.
