Chapter 470: Knocked Down to the Ground
"Mingjie, did you hear that? That's Dad's voice!" There was a hint of surprise in Lou Xiao'e's voice, and her face showed obvious shock.
Xu Mingjie felt a little uneasy. He knew that Lou Xiao'e's father had always been reserved about their relationship, and this encounter caught him off guard. He fixed his eyes on Lou Xiao'e's father, and began to wonder how to deal with this sudden situation.
Lou Xiao'e's father came closer, and Xu Mingjie could see his face clearly, which was a straight and serious face. His eyes swept back and forth between Xu Mingjie and Lou Xiao'e, as if he was weighing the significance of this chance encounter.
"Xiao'e? Mingjie?" Lou Xiao'e's father spoke in a tone of surprise and questioning, with a hint of formality in his voice.
Lou Xiao'e smiled and tried to make her tone sound natural: "Dad, what a coincidence to meet you here. We are riding bicycles and enjoying this beautiful evening."
A complex emotion flashed in Lou Xiao'e's father's eyes. He nodded slightly, as if he was a little surprised by this chance encounter. "I see. Did you ride a long distance? It must feel good to ride a bicycle in the park, right?"
Xu Mingjie was nervous, but he knew he couldn't show too much panic. He stood aside, smiled politely, and responded gently: "Hello, uncle. We just rode for a while and were planning to take a break in the park. Are you taking a walk here too?"
Lou Xiao'e's father looked at Xu Mingjie with a look of scrutiny. He nodded slightly, with an elusive calmness in his tone: "Yes, I just walked by here. I didn't expect to meet you here."
Xu Mingjie felt a subtle uneasiness, as he knew that Lou Xiaoe's father had always been cold to him. He tried to ease the embarrassment with a relaxed tone: "Yes, it's a coincidence. We were just planning to go back, and the weather is so good, cycling is a good way to relax."
Lou Xiao'e's father relaxed a little, looked away from Xu Mingjie's face, and looked at Lou Xiao'e: "Xiao'e, how is your health recently? Do you feel tired?"
Lou Xiao'e smiled slightly, with a hint of tenderness in her tone: "Dad, I'm fine. I feel that my body has recovered well recently. Thank you for your concern."
Xu Mingjie was listening to this, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He knew that Lou Xiao'e's father was very concerned about her health, but he also knew that this concern was often in a subtle way. He felt that Lou Xiao'e was delicate and considerate when facing her father, and he couldn't help but admire her even more.
"I heard that you have a lot of plans recently and are going to try some new things." Lou Xiao'e's father suddenly said, with a bit of concern and inquiry in his tone.
Xu Mingjie was slightly startled, and a trace of nervousness flashed through his heart. He knew that Lou Xiao'e's father was full of doubts about their future plans, but he tried to remain calm: "Yes, we have some plans that we hope will make our lives more fulfilling and meaningful. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to tell us."
Lou Xiao'e's father nodded slightly, with a thoughtful look in his eyes. His attitude seemed to have eased, but he still maintained a cautious attitude: "I hope your plans will go smoothly. After all, there are always many challenges to face in life."
Xu Mingjie felt the concern of Lou Xiaoe's father, but he also understood that he still had reservations about their future. Deep in his heart, there was a subtle emotion that made him feel both pressured and motivated. He hoped to win the recognition of Lou Xiaoe's father through his own efforts, and also hoped to make their future better.
"Thank you uncle for your concern and advice. We will definitely take it seriously." Xu Mingjie responded politely, his heart full of firm belief in the future.
During the conversation, Xu Mingjie and Lou Xiao'e's father exchanged ideas, and the atmosphere gradually became natural. Although the conversation was full of politeness and courtesy, Xu Mingjie could feel that Lou Xiao'e's father still had some concerns about their future. He hoped that he could prove his sincerity to Lou Xiao'e through practical actions, and also hoped to bring more beauty to their future.
Eventually, the conversation ended, and Lou Xiao'e's father politely said goodbye and continued his walk. Xu Mingjie and Lou Xiao'e stood by the lake, watching their father's back gradually go away, their hearts filled with all kinds of complicated emotions.
"Mingjie, Dad's attitude seems a little cold, but he still cares about me very much." There was a hint of helplessness in Lou Xiao'e's voice, but more of it was understanding and tolerance.
Xu Mingjie sighed slightly, his heart was a little heavy, but he still maintained a gentle smile: "Xiao'e, I understand how you feel. I will try my best to gain your father's understanding, and I will also work hard to make our lives better."
Lou Xiao'e nodded, with a determined light in her eyes: "Mingjie, I believe in you. We can definitely overcome these difficulties together and realize our dreams."
The master has always been a role model in his heart, teaching him martial arts and imparting to him the principles of dealing with people. In those years, they practiced martial arts together and discussed life together. The master's teachings have become a part of Xu Mingjie's life. But now, the master was seriously injured in a sudden attack and was even on the verge of crisis. The scene that night was like a nightmare. Every time Xu Mingjie recalled it, he felt a pain in his heart like a knife.
He recalled the situation that day, and it seemed as if he could hear the sound of the wooden door being violently slammed open. The attacker's figure was as fast as a ghost, with irresistible force. While resisting, the master pushed Xu Mingjie away and let him hide safely in the corner. However, the master's figure became weaker and weaker, and was finally knocked to the ground by the enemy. Xu Mingjie's anger and powerlessness at that time still surged into his heart like a tide, making him unable to calm down.
Xu Mingjie knew that this was not only a provocation to his master, but also a threat to him personally. He knew that he had to do something and could not let everything sink. So he made up his mind and began to investigate the black hand behind it.
He walked through the streets around the courtyard, carefully questioned every witness, and investigated every possible clue. However, it seemed that all his efforts were in vain. The attackers came and went without a trace, as if they had disappeared into thin air. Xu Mingjie began to worry, and he began to doubt whether he had enough ability to uncover the truth of all this.
