Girl, There's Something Wrong With You - Chapter 37

“First like this, then like this, and then like this.”

Cheng Jinyang: ?

“Teacher Li, I didn’t see clearly, could you repeat it?”

“Sure.” Li Qingwan then executed a series of dazzling punches again, “This one, followed by this. Can you see clearly this time?”

Cheng Jinyang: ………..

“Teacher Li, your punches are too fast, how can I possibly keep up?”

“This set of punches requires speed.” Li Qingwan chuckled, “Alright, let me demonstrate slowly first, and once you’ve learned it, you can increase your speed.”

Cheng Jinyang followed her to do a set of punches, and felt that his whole body was sweating, his joints and bones were moving, and his breathing became better and more comfortable.

“It really works.” He said with sincere admiration.

“Going through it once daily is very helpful for rehabilitation after an illness,” Li Qingwan smiled, “But there are a few moves you didn’t get right, let me teach you.”

She walked over to correct Cheng Jinyang’s posture and stance. Feeling her cool, smooth touch, Cheng Jinyang’s mind wandered a bit, only to hear an angry cough nearby.

“Cough cough cough!” Just arriving on the scene, Cui Jinqi saw the two of them being ‘sweet and affectionate’ in the name of martial arts practice, and couldn’t help but feel furious and resentful.

“Jinqi, why are you coughing so much? Did you catch a cold?” Li Qingwan asked with concern.

“No,” Cui Jinqi replied bitterly, “I just passed by here and saw two ugly yellow dogs sticking to each other, and got choked up for a moment.”

“Two dogs? But I only see one?” Li Qingwan pointed to the distance and asked in confusion.

Cui Jinqi turned around and saw a big yellow dog slinking away with its tail between its legs, looking dejected.

She actually mocked me for being single… Li Qingwan, our friendship ends here!

Cutting ties!

Friendship is over!

“Well then, let’s end today’s morning lesson here,” Li Qingwan turned back to Cheng Jinyang, smiling, “It looks like Jinqi has something to discuss with you, so we’ll continue this evening.”

“Okay, goodbye, Teacher.”

As Li Qingwan walked away, Cui Jinqi’s mood brightened again.

Huh, turns out Qingwan can be quite considerate.

Oh well, I forgive her.

So Cui Jinqi skipped over happily again, coquettishly saying, “Jinyang, the weather’s so nice today, how about we go out and have some fun?”

Cheng Jinyang looked up. There wasn’t a hint of sun in the grey sky. What’s good about this weather?

So he made excuses, saying, “I still have some work to finish today…”

“Really?” Cui Jinqi was starting to feel annoyed.

You have time for intimate sessions with Qingwan, but no time to accompany me shopping? What’s wrong with me, Cui Xiaoniang?

She gave a cold laugh, “Really? But recently, our family bank is auditing its accounts, and I found that Shendu Cheng clan’s debt repayment ability still needs evaluation…”

“Jinqi! The weather is so nice today. Let’s go out!” Cheng Jinyang immediately changed his tune.

Damn it! Can’t handle this capitalist banker’s daughter!

Although I’m a man of integrity, there are 600 hungry mouths to feed in our whole family, and the life-saving funds are in her hands…

No choice but to succumb to this pretty girl’s evil desires, letting her have her way!

With these thoughts, Cheng Jinyang could only force a smile and let the excited Cui Xiaoniang drag him away.

After a while, Xing Yuanzhi came to the training ground to find Cheng Jinyang.

Huh, where is he?

She frowned, swiftly dialed a number, and connected to the Xing Family’s Ground Network.

“Find me Cheng Jinyang.”

A few minutes later, the photos and real-time location were sent over.

The location showed he was currently near the commercial street in the downtown area.

The photos displayed him together with Cui Jinqi, looking intimate, laughing and chatting.

Xing Yuanzhi quietly gazed at the photos. After a while, she closed them.

Then she called Cheng Huaiyan:

“I want to apply for some Tianluo weapons separately, is that okay?”

On the other side, Cheng Jinyang, who was shopping with Cui Xiaoniang, suddenly felt a chill for no reason.

Hmm, the heating in this store isn’t really up to par…

Cui Xiaoniang was quite lively and playful, knowledgeable about nearby delicacies, entertainment, and shopping places.

Therefore, most of the time she chattered away, suggesting where to go next, while Cheng Jinyang could only respond with a smile.

However, inexplicably, such interactions were seen by the store clerks as intimate symbols between lovers.

Thus, whenever one of them said, “This suits you well, let your boyfriend take a look,” Cui Jinqi would smile as if she were a naive and sweet girl, getting the store clerk to wrap everything up for her.

Tsk, the password to wealth.

Finally unable to bear it, Cheng Jinyang pulled Cui Xiaoniang aside and cautioned her:

“Don’t buy so many clothes! You’ve got enough to wear a different outfit every day for months!”

“Why? I’m not buying just for myself!” Cui Jinqi blurted out, “Short skirts for Wangshu, sportswear for Qingwan, trousers for Qingqing, shirts for Wanrou and dust coats for Yuanzhi!”

“Then why are they all the same model?” Cheng Jinyang wasn’t fooled at all, “And you’ve tried on each one yourself.”

“Alright, alright!” Cui Jinqi couldn’t continue making excuses, so she dragged him to the next-door dessert shop, “How about I buy you ice cream? Stop nagging.”

“Eating ice cream in this freezing weather!”

“Winter is the best time for ice cream; it won’t melt no matter how long you hold it!”

“Try holding it in the air-conditioned room for ten minutes.”

“I can eat it outside!”

“It’s so cold outside…”

“What do you want to eat then?” Cui Xiaoniang glared at him, her mouth pouting in anger.

Cheng Jinyang also suffered from decision paralysis, “Then how about a hot drink… bubble tea?”

“Hmph!” Cui Jinqi muttered dissatisfiedly and ordered a super large size.

The bubble tea was quickly made, indeed super large with a couple’s straw entwined into a heart shape at the top.

Cheng Jinyang: …………

So why does everyone assume we’re a couple?

Cui Jinqi took a few sips through the straw, then absentmindedly handed it to him:

“Take it, I can’t finish it alone.”

“If you can’t finish it, why did you buy such a large cup…”

“I like it, what’s it to you?” Cui Xiaoniang rolled her eyes, “Stop being like an old lady, fussing over everything!”

Cheng Jinyang helplessly took the bubble tea, just as he bit the straw, he saw Cui Xiaoniang suddenly lean down lightning-fast and suck hard on the straw.

“I just wanted to try what it feels like to drink bubble tea together.” She lifted her head again, avoiding his gaze awkwardly, her cheeks slightly flushed, “Since we’ve already bought it…”

“What did you feel?” Cheng Jinyang asked jokingly.

“Well, the sweetness is alright.” Cui Xiaoniang blushed a bit shyly and turned her head away to avoid letting him see.

“I wasn’t asking about the sweetness…” Cheng Jinyang was about to mock her for this self-inflicted embarrassing play, when suddenly they heard teasing voices from behind, “Oh my, oh my.”

Turning around, they saw Lu Qingyun from the Fanyang Lu clan, smiling broadly at them.

As if watching a drama unfold.
