Liu Jianxin raised his eyes slightly, and seeing that it was his disciple whom he hadn't seen for half a year, he immediately stood up, his white beard moving slightly with his smile, his eyes full of surprise, "Chengyuan, why are you here?"

Lu Chengyuan sat on a rattan chair nearby. "I'm in Guangcheng on business and just happened to come and see you."

"How long do you plan to stay?" Liu Jianxin asked with a smile.

According to the crew's arrangement, Xia Qingluo will stay here for a month, so he will also stay for a month.

"About a month." Lu Chengyuan changed to a leisurely sitting posture.

Liu Jianxin clapped his hands and immediately smiled, like an old grandfather who finally saw his grandson take a vacation. "That's great. Have you neglected your martial arts training in the past six months?"

Lu Chengyuan's lips curved slightly, "I practice every day, and I just had a real fight not long ago."

Liu Jianxin frowned slightly, and paused while stroking his beard. "Isn't your company a technology company? Why do you still want to fight and kill?"

Lu Chengyuan's expression was calm. "It's just business competition, a small problem."

Liu Jianxin knew the level of his apprentice, so he didn't ask any more questions. "By the way, I just accepted a new student today. She's a little girl, and she's so beautiful that she can topple a country. Do you want to teach her?"

Lu Chengyuan saw through Liu Jianxin's intention at a glance.

Do all elders like to urge the younger generation to get married? Even the master is no exception.

Lu Chengyuan picked up the apple on the table and started eating it. "I'm not interested."

He could have used the excuse that "I already have a woman I like" to reject Liu Jianxin.

But if Liu Jianxin knew about this, he would definitely ask him to bring Xia Qingluo to see him.

He didn't want Xia Qingluo and Liu Jianxin to meet until some things were clarified.

Liu Jianxin rolled his long white beard with his fingers, trying to stir up Lu Chengyuan's competitive spirit, "If you don't take her, then I can only let Zhang Jing take her. If the girl is snatched away by Zhang Jing, don't regret it."

Although Lu Chengyuan and Zhang Jing were both his closed disciples and were of similar age, they had not gotten along since childhood and often fought. Now that they had grown up, they were still sworn enemies.

Lu Chengyuan couldn't help but laugh, "If Zhang Jing is interested in women, then tomorrow's sun will probably rise from the west."

Liu Jianxin snorted, "You are the same, you are just a bird, the pot calling the kettle black. You two are both geniuses in practicing Tongzi Kung Fu."

Lu Chengyuan's eyelids twitched, and he quickly changed the subject, "I'm curious, why did you suddenly accept a disciple?"

Liu Jianxin shook his head repeatedly, "I don't accept any disciples. You and Zhang Jing are my last disciples."

He then pointed to the chessboard and said, "That little girl challenged the chess master right away. If she wins, I will promise to teach her martial arts."

"But her chess skills were so great that I offered to trade with her and let her teach me chess."

"So, she can't be considered my apprentice, but rather your master's aunt."

Lu Chengyuan raised his eyes slightly, and became interested when he heard that he had defeated the chess master.

Liu Jianxin picked up the chess pieces and reconstructed the chess game at that time. "The girl's offensive was so fierce that she defeated the chess master with 20 consecutive moves. The chess master had no power to fight back at all."

Lu Chengyuan's deep eyes stared intently at the layout on the chessboard, his sword-like brows slightly furrowed.

Since he has been playing chess with his grandfather since he was a child, he also knows a thing or two.

Through the chess game, he seemed to be able to see the turbulent waves in the little girl's heart.

The little girl had been feeling depressed, and this emotion turned into a fierce offensive on the chessboard.

Perhaps because of certain experiences in the past, her obsession is very strong, and all her actions are only to achieve that goal.

Even becoming an apprentice and learning skills was one of the actions she took to achieve her goal.

Lu Chengyuan raised his eyes and asked, "Master should be someone who looks very obedient on the surface..."

He hesitated, unsure of the nun's age.

After all, Liu Jianxin is eighty years old, and people in their thirties or forties can be considered little girls in his eyes.

Liu Jianxin smiled and teased, "Why? Are you suddenly interested?"

Lu Chengyuan shook his head repeatedly, "I just think she is a dangerous person. Her obsession is too deep. For this obsession, she can kill gods and Buddhas."

Liu Jianxin gently stroked his long white beard and said with a smile: "If you don't have a persistent mind when learning martial arts, how can you achieve extraordinary results? As long as you don't go astray, you are a promising talent."

"Since you are not interested in Junior Nun, then play two games of chess with me first." Liu Jianxin placed the chess pieces.

Lu Chengyuan was also an excellent chess player. He played against Liu Jianxin for two hours, winning and losing.

My master taught me since I was young that when playing chess or competing in martial arts, I must never be humble.

Your humility will either anger your opponent, who will think that you don't respect the match; or you will mistreat yourself and let your talent and hard work go to waste.

After a few games, Lu Chengyuan put down the chess piece in his hand and said, "Master, it's getting late."

"Wait a minute, don't go yet, I have something to give you." Before he finished speaking, Liu Jianxin's figure had disappeared in the courtyard.

Soon, he came back with several heavy red plastic bags in his hands. "These are fruits grown on the mountain. No pesticides have been used. They are all natural."

Before Lu Chengyuan could say no, Liu Jianxin seemed to have guessed his thoughts, "The ones out there can't be compared to these. What those merchants say are all natural is fake. How can you believe them completely?"

Lu Chengyuan smiled helplessly, "I'll come again in a few days, no need to take so much."

Liu Jianxin pretended not to hear and said to himself: "That's great. I'll bring you a chicken next time so you can replenish your body."

Lu Chengyuan rubbed his brow helplessly, "I've been in good health recently, so I don't need to take so much supplements."

Liu Jianxin slapped his head and said, "Speaking of health, I forgot to take your pulse."

As he spoke, Liu Jianxin grabbed Lu Chengyuan's wrist, his face gradually becoming serious, "Why do you stay up so late? Can't you do your work during the day?"

"Isn't your tech company quite big? You can delegate many tasks to your subordinates. When you are alive, don't always think about being the first in everything. You will be very tired if you do that..."

Lu Chengyuan's lips curved slightly as he listened quietly to Liu Jianxin's chatter.

His grandfather would nag about his marriage.

The master will nag you from head to toe, from work to life, everything.

Both were among the few people in the world who truly cared about him.

Lu Chengyuan got into the car and looked through the rearview mirror at Shen Jianxin who was standing at the door and watching him leave. The old man with a long white beard had a long silhouette under the dim street lights.

Liu Jianxin's figure gradually shrank in the night until it became a blurry dot and finally disappeared from sight.

The smile on Lu Chengyuan's face gradually faded, and his eyes suddenly became dim.

He side-glanced at the pile of fruits on the driver's seat, pursed his lips, and felt an inexplicable discomfort in his heart.

The master is still as kind and amiable as before, except that he was a little strict when teaching them martial arts. The master has always been a kind person.

The memories of Lu Chengyuan before his death flooded into his mind like a tide.

He stopped the car, he stopped the car, his hands tightly gripping the steering wheel, his knuckles turning white from the effort, and when he closed his eyes, he seemed to be back in that dark and damp basement.

He knelt on the ground, hugging Xia Qingluo, who was soaked in blood.

He looked at Xia Qingluo helplessly, saying words like sorry, regretful, I love you, etc.

Finally, a cold blade pierced his heart from behind.

Before he died, he turned his head and saw Liu Jianxin's face...

And Liu Jianxin's hand was holding the handle of the blade.
