separated by the same network

Ke Luyan was seven years older than her, which meant that she had no advantage in terms of knowledge or IQ.

In other words, she couldn't understand Ke Luyan's thoughts in many cases—for example, now.

Ke Zhiyan resolutely gave up the idea of ​​continuing to explore, and took it as the conclusion of Ke Lvyan's excuse, she nodded and turned around to end the topic at the same time.

Wei Cheng stood sideways facing the wall behind her, and now Ke Zhiyan realized that he had left her behind in an unfamiliar environment again, but he only realized that she could no longer consider other things when facing Ke Lvyan. Just form a habit.

She can't change it, and now she can only try to make up for it.

Ke Zhiyan said softly, "Sister Cheng?"

"Ah." Wei Cheng looked at her, gave her a quick response, and then turned her gaze back to the wall, "Is that also your family's collection?"

Ke Zhiyan followed her gaze and saw that there were two long slender western swords that crossed each other, "It's just an ornament, after all, they are not worth much."

Wei Cheng glanced again, hesitated to speak, "They..."

Ke Zhiyan knew what she was going to say, so he quickly continued, "It has been cut, it can be used as a duel sword..." After she finished answering, she was a little uncertain. These two swords were hung here after she went to China. She didn't touch or even come into close contact with any of them during the limited number of times she went home every year. She just judged based on the memory of the two swords she had touched before.

Ke Zhiyan glanced at Ke Lvyan who was still sitting on the sofa, "Really?"

Ke Lvyan took a sip from the bone china teacup on the coffee table before slowly saying, "It's just a decoration, so far we haven't prepared for it."

While talking, she glanced at Ke Zhiyan meaningfully. Ke Zhiyan remembered the fate of the first two swords, and controlled her face to remain unchanged, but her eyes drifted away. She ignored the meaning in Ke Zhiyan's sight, but stared at the sword Bone China Teacup: "You're a little different today, where's your cup?"

"Isn't this the one?" Ke Lvyan glanced at the delicate and slender teacup in his hand, "Your one is in the kitchen, if you want to drink, get it yourself."

"No, I mean the cup you usually use?"

Ke Lvyan's face collapsed a bit, "Sweet, you will be scolded by Mommy for using other cups in front of guests, you'd better recall your memory."

Ke Zhiyan sneered expressionlessly, "I thought you had changed your sex and finally wanted to save Mommy some time."

Ke Luyan just showed a whole row of teeth and smiled innocently.

Ke Zhiyan didn't want to see this flattering smile at all, so she returned to the topic with Wei Cheng, what was she going to say?Oh, by the way, Wei Cheng is interested in fencing.

She tentatively added: "Whether the blade is opened or not will not affect its role in a duel at all, but it will be safer if it is not opened."

After seeing Wei Cheng's eyes light up, Ke Zhiyan knew he had guessed right.Wei Cheng is indeed interested in fencing, which stems from Ke Zhiyan’s steady recommendation of western knight novels and the release of "The Three Musketeers" three months ago - based on the novel of the same name by Alexandre Dumas, written by Orlando Bloom and Luke The French film starring Evans.

Ke Zhiyan is quite satisfied with the fencing skills she mastered when she was young. Although it is only showy now, she can still show off her skills.She doesn't mind showing off in front of Wei Cheng.

"Do you want to watch it? I learned a little bit when I was a child, and I still remember some." Ke Zhiyan further suggested.

Wei Cheng hesitated for a moment, she should have refused because she troubled the other party, but she was really very curious about fencing, especially Ke Zhiyan's swordsmanship, just a little hesitation, she missed the best time to express her opinion, Ke Zhiyan nodded, She didn't seem to care about Wei Cheng's statement at all, she seemed to have made a decision already.

She said to Ke Luyan: "Then, come on, we have an obligation to perform for the guests, don't we?"

Ke Luyan held the teacup and did not move, "Now?"

"Why don't you wait until after dinner?" Ke Zhiyan said, "Of course it's now!"

"Can I say no?"

"Hmm, no." Ke Zhiyan urged her, "Hurry up, just for a while, I will give you some face in front of Sister Cheng!"

"It's like I'm afraid of you, how many times have you defeated me?" Ke Luyan murmured softly.

"Tsk." Seeing that the other party is still sitting on the sofa comfortably, Ke Zhiyan glanced at the sword, and wanted to attack directly with the sword - just like the measures taken when the other party didn't cooperate when she was a child - but now she has more good idea.

"London." Ke Zhiyan said suddenly.

"Excuseme?" Ke Luyan didn't understand what she meant for a moment, but after seeing the other's sly eyes, he immediately regretted his answer.

Ke Zhiyan raised her eyebrows, pretending to be deep and said: "London Olympics—" She drew out the tone when she mentioned the Olympics, "Who did you watch it with?"

"Of course—" Ke Lvyan's words stopped abruptly, and she stared at the little bastard in front of her defensively, "What do you want to say?"

"Well, you hardly watch sports channels let alone ping pong games that you are not interested in, Joanna knows the result because she read the briefing, which of course is not something you would do, plus you are proficient in Chinese Internet recently The words..." She imitated Ke Luyan's carelessness before, and that villain's triumphant look made Ke Luyan want to hold down the other party and beat him up, let alone the content of the other party's words.

Ke Zhiyan said slowly: "A Chinese, ethnic Chinese or foreign student, seeing that the other party is proficient in Internet language, I am more inclined to foreign students, anyway, heorshe?"

Sure enough, a little bastard!

Ke Luyan secretly thought with a toothache that he shouldn't let her go!

"Well, maybe Mommy will be glad to know..."

"OK!" Ke Lvyan interrupted her, and looked at her with complicated eyes, "Are you serious?"

"Of course." Ke Zhiyan said boldly.

Ke Lvyan put down his teacup with great reluctance and got up from the sofa, and walked towards them slowly, "Say it first, if you're not feeling well...I mean, if you forget how to go next, just stop in time, We'll stop there."

"Of course, of course, safety comes first. We're just demonstrating a little bit. I mean, my memory is not bad. You don't have to worry about how to move around." Ke Zhiyan agreed wholeheartedly.

Ke Luyan swears that she saw the other party roll his eyes secretly when he said "safety first" - because Wei Cheng's eyes were also on the little bastard at that time.

After Ke Zhiyan finished speaking, she tiptoed to take the sword from the wall. She only took one, then stood up again and gave Ke Lvyan a look.

Ke Lvyan sighed calmly, unbuttoned the shirt cuff buttons and rolled them up to the joints. When she took the remaining sword from the wall, she saw the sword in the right hand of the little bastard, while her left hand was holding the right wrist bone. , as if the sword was too heavy.

Ke Luyan was more worried, she gave her a worried look, the little bastard received it, but didn't express it, just moved his left hand away, and then smiled as if nothing had happened.

"Come on." Ke Zhiyan stood up and held the sword in his right hand.

Ke Luyan glanced at Wei Cheng who was watching the battle from the corner of his eye, took a deep breath after putting away her doubts, and moved her wrist holding the sword to attack first.

The two of them were just doing a demonstration. Furthermore, Ke Lvyan was content and messing around with his sister. In addition, both of them hadn't practiced formally for a while, and they hadn't even held a sword, so this demonstration was more The most important thing is to jab and block.

Ke Zhiyan is often the one who stabs. She has a good foundation in the essentials of movements, and thanks to table tennis, her steps are very steady, so she has to press forward and hit the opponent's fatal point every few moves.In contrast, Ke Lvyan was calm and unmoved. She patiently blocked Ke Zhiyan's attack every time, and could find the right opportunity to harass the opponent twice when the opponent retaliated - of course, Ke Zhiyan slapped her in a hurry. Block back.

In short, no one had the upper hand in this short contest. They kept moving as you came and I went, but they still stood at the origin in the end.

After it was over, Ke Lvyan thought, there is no difference between holding a sword and a knife and fork on the dining table—knives and forks can be stuffed away when they are used up, but with a sword, they have to be responsible for hanging them back, and that little bastard Already visited elsewhere with the sole audience!

Before dinner, Papa, who took their little daughter home and took a vacation, finally finished the meeting and was willing to come out of the study. Of course, as soon as they went out, Mommy took her to the kitchen to help. Ke Zhiyan took the opportunity to bring Wei Cheng into the study.

"Da da, don't we have a lot of books in our house?"

Wei Cheng looked around, the walls of the study were covered with a whole wall of bookshelves, Wei Cheng saw many Chinese titles, and of course more of them were in foreign languages.

She showed some smiles. After visiting Ke's house, she learned more about Ke Zhiyan's childhood life.

"Have you read it all?" she asked.

"I only read a small part. I left home when I was 11 years old. The number of books in my study increases every year, but I will read a few books that I am interested in after returning home."

Wei Cheng looked at the collection of books all over her face and knew how strong the atmosphere of knowledge was in this family. Generally speaking, this kind of family background is more likely to be inherited from the father's business—at least in terms of academic qualifications.She was suddenly very curious: "Zhiyan, why did you choose table tennis in the first place?"

"I was in poor health when I was a child, and I learned to play ball to exercise my body." Ke Zhiyan said, "At that time, the school had a table tennis team, and I was of Chinese descent. The first time I touched a ball, I was dragged by my classmates."

After hearing this, Wei Cheng realized that this seemed to be the reason why the child talked about learning ball for the first time.Just a very common reason, the same reason as most people.

Wei Cheng thought for a while and asked again: "Then have you thought about what will happen after you retire?"
