Chapter 7, Stray Dogs
Zhi Qin felt afraid upon seeing Xu Qianye, after all, she is a well-known troublemaker, and the previous seductive demeanor was reined in.
In the eyes, there is a fierce intensity as if a storm is approaching
The power fueled by anger has been exhausted
In the dim light, his black hair was dyed a soft color, and when he looked up at her, the corners of his eyes drooped
I received another message from her just as I sat down on the subway
Directly pulling Zhiqin to the corridor outside the tavern, the air was filled with humidity and heat
The two individuals occupy opposite corners of the boxing ring, their upper bodies bare, showcasing muscles that elicit gasps, shifting their footwork and ready to strike at each other's weaknesses at any moment
Chen Cheng frowned, wanting to support him, yet unsure where to place her hands
Chen Cheng patted her shoulder and said earnestly, "So, Ms. Xu, you should quickly ask your father to enter the entertainment industry to pave the way for both of us"
That young lady has a stage name, called Zhiqin. She comes from a girl group and has transitioned to acting. Recently, Chen Cheng finally had a stroke of luck and secured a supporting role as the third female lead, but it was snatched away from her by Zhiqin.
I am truly afraid that you might starve, but fortunately, there is someone like me...
"What the hell." Chen Cheng was startled
The eruption of hormones, the primal speed and strength, the display of power and victory of the strong
Luo Youqian knelt on the stage
The bottle stopped just a few millimeters from her temple
I know," Luo Youqian said in a low voice
As soon as the two fairies appeared, they became the center of attention in the crowd; the former resembled a sprite, while the latter was akin to a venomous snake
Song Qi and Luo Youqian were both his young apprentices at that time, with Song Qi being three years older than Luo Youqian. They were evenly matched, but in terms of adaptability and flexibility, Luo Youqian was the best he had ever seen.
Having lost, he will no longer have the opportunity to compete and regain a victory
Round 1
Thus, he changed to a defensive strategy
The deafening cheers of the crowd still pierced the eardrums, and the entire venue was in a state of fervor for him
The smile displayed on the face is rather overly naive and sweet.
Chen Cheng: What happened
A direct hit
Xu Qianye has been waiting at the door, her makeup exquisite, wearing a black lace dress, stiletto heels, a small handbag, and sunglasses
Life came to a halt at that moment
He has always been like this; it is not that he is unaware that this match is not easy, but rather that in the sport of boxing, he has already prepared an escape route of "losing" for himself before stepping onto the ring, and he will never be able to win.
The competition adopts a one-hit-one-point system, and within just one minute before it even began, a point was already scored preemptively.
Luo Youqian was the first to launch an attack, directly pushing off the ground with one foot and leaping up, while sweeping his other leg horizontally towards his temple. This was his usual first move, and Song Qi was well aware of it, directly blocking it with his wrist
Therefore, even under circumstances where strength, speed, and skill are comparable, Song Qi has never defeated Luo Youqian
Oh, who do I think I am? What is it? Back in the day, I killed someone, and now I have to make a comeback?
Chen Cheng slowly slid down from the chair and followed.
Is it also possible to hit you?
Moreover, given her stubborn temperament, she looks down upon the many shortcuts that people take, even to the extent of sacrificing their own integrity.
Highlight completely the alluring aspect of her temperament, as if she were a poison that emits fragrance, her gaze sweeping by like a dagger that pierces the heart
University classmates, same major, Chen Cheng initially studied acting to earn a lot of money, but later it was only for the sake of his dream
Song Qi smiled slightly, losing a bit of normalcy. It seems that Luo Youqian intends to engage in a swift battle, a strategy that consumes a great deal of physical strength, especially when facing a formidable opponent
Zhi Qin was almost scared to tears by Xu Qian Ye: "You can hit or scold me, I deserve it."
He began to wrap the bandages without raising his head, his voice rather faint: "It was agreed, just this one match, whether to draw or not is of no consequence."
Like a stray dog that has finally returned home after being lost outside
He did not even follow any rules, disregarding the strategies taught by the previous coach to the two of them, relying solely on a surge of anger and solitary courage
At the national youth competition, the stands were filled with countless spectators. Suddenly, a crowd surged forward, including doctors, and he was knocked to the ground. Through a row of backs, he saw a boy of similar size lying in the center.
Luo Youqian sat in the lounge, the bandage on his hand not yet wrapped, his upper body bare, a cigarette clenched between his teeth, unlit, with a sinister look in his eyes
During university, I encountered a great teacher, and from that moment on, the once mundane Chen Cheng unexpectedly developed the purest of dreams, amidst the most chaotic entertainment industry
He - Picture - Book Xu Qianye knew that she could not persuade Chen Cheng, as she was determined to pursue the path of an actress; she loved acting, even to the point of passion
Even mere defense is difficult to withstand
"So which audition are you preparing for in your next film?" Xu Qianye asked.
The men and women around all knew Xu Qianye's background; when she shot a glare over, they did not dare to make a sound
They seem to be fairies who have fallen into the mortal realm, unaware of the mundane world, but upon closer listening, one will find that they are merely discussing trivial daily matters, equally weary of the earthly existence
[Yezi: Little Bitch, come to Yicheng!]
Luo Youqian smiled broadly, his smile revealing an unmistakable blend of arrogance and sarcasm.
The lighting in the basement is dim, and the walls are covered with various small advertisements for water, electricity, and gas, all clumped together by years of dampness
A young man was lying at the entrance, wearing a black short-sleeved shirt that could not conceal the scars spreading from his arms and neck, with blood at the corners of his eyes and mouth
The atmosphere is becoming increasingly lively, and the big screen displays the historical award records of tonight's contenders
With a swift motion, the arm swung forward, bringing the champagne bottle crashing down towards Zhiqin's head, forcing a whimper of fear from the depths of her throat, leaving her completely forgetful of the instinct to dodge
The coach stood up and faced Song Qi
Xu Qianye put her hands on her hips and rolled her eyes dramatically: "Are you talking about your mother? If she needs help, I can't assist her? Do you still need me?"
"Ye Zi" is the WeChat note given by Chen Cheng to Xu Qianye, a wealthy woman with a large bust, whose biological father is immensely wealthy. She is an unconventional and traditional rich girl, and thus became close friends with Chen Cheng, who is financially struggling.
Chen Cheng raised his eyes upon hearing this, and through the laser lights and smoke that shot down from the wall, he saw a woman sitting at the table across from him
Xu Qianye only seeks to experience the various indulgent and unrestrained lives.
Chen Cheng stood behind her, leisurely leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, tilting his head to watch the performance
Although most of the onlookers are amateurs, in this city, where the pressures of work during the day are suffocating, where colleagues engage in intrigues and where one faces criticism and sarcasm from superiors, it is also a pleasant diversion to come and watch people fight in the evening
The sky darkened rapidly, the distant horizon resembling a wash of ink, with dark clouds pressing down on the city, and light succumbing to the gloom
The next day, after finishing his odd jobs, Chen Cheng was about to return to his rented apartment. Just as he was about to take out his keys to unlock the door, he received a message
Chen Cheng and Xu Qianye sat at the bar, one alluring and the other graceful, both smiling radiantly
Various bets are being placed amidst the clamor of voices
The boxing club was bustling with voices, as the coach had once been of a caliber that could enter the national team. Opening a boxing gym would undoubtedly attract heavyweight figures, making it impossible for anyone to enter or exit.
Having won, he will not participate in the next match, and it will be directly counted as a victory for the person who was drawn to compete against him
She clapped her hands in satisfaction: "Perfect!"
10,000.00 yuan
I see you are quite content and oblivious to your homeland. Chen Cheng smiled; for this past month, Xu Qianye had been with her foreign boyfriend.
The flickering lights are dazzling and exhilarating, the fourth round has finally concluded
Everyone is well aware of certain underhanded means that are not fit for the stage
The competition has begun
Yicheng is a luxurious mansion that offers a complete range of dining, entertainment, and leisure activities
After he left, the coach returned to Luo Youqian's side, weighed the pair of boxing gloves that belonged to him, and handed them over, saying: "Today is not a quick match, do not underestimate your opponent"
The ground floor of the mansion features a small tavern, designed in European style, with the deep and melodious sound of the cello.
She raised her hand and pulled a bottle of champagne from the ice bucket, the corners of her eyes lifting, her lips thin, playful yet seductive
A person entered through the door, their robust physique completely blocking the light. Their arms were well-defined, as hard as rock, yet their tone was extremely mocking
Luo Youqian's phone vibrated, indicating that a message had been received.
Chen Cheng raised her eyebrows, stepping closer step by step, her lips a bright red, gently curling into a smile.
Luo Youqian's attacks are both swift and fierce; he is now venting his anger, releasing the fury accumulated over the past two years and the grievances that have built up during this time
The cheers reached their peak after Luo Youqian and Song Qi took the stage, as both sides' banner bearers raised their battle flags to lead them in, creating a front | protruding | back | raised formation, which once again elicited cheers.
It was agreed that only this match would be played, and the opponent is Song Qi
He stood there like that
The opening competition now begins! Both sides have achieved excellent results, having won national gold medals. So today, who will truly be the king? Let us wait and see!
Luo Youqian suddenly chuckled lightly, lazily lifting his eyelids: "Perhaps if I kill another one tonight, I will truly retire."
Are you really going to take this path?" Xu Qianye sighed, "If you were to switch to another industry, I could still ask my father for help, but the entertainment industry is murky, and I cannot assist you.
That silhouette resembles someone going to blow up a bunker
"Zhiqin, get out here right now!" Relying on her wealthy father, Xu Qianye directly grabbed her by the hair and dragged her out.
boxing ring
As soon as the coach entered and saw this scene, he immediately threw away the cigarette: "You're about to go on stage and you're still smoking! Don't you know that tobacco and alcohol are the taboos for boxers?"
Luo Youqian and Song Qitai are very familiar with each other, having grasped each other's every move and technique
"Think, super think." Xu Qianye held her and leaned closer to examine her face, saying seriously, "You can't go on like this, come on, I will do your makeup."
Without connections, works, a reliable team, or financial backers, Chen Cheng, a solitary young girl, finds it exceedingly difficult to establish herself
Most people share this idea
What is the situation with you, have you been beaten?
You haven't fought in two years; even if you had a crash training session yesterday, it cannot compare to your peak performance. Although Song Qi has fought less in the past two years, he has not stopped training. If you want to win against him, it will be difficult
Carrying years of accumulated anger
"Cheng'er!" Xu Qianye exclaimed excitedly, running over with small, quick steps and embracing her tightly, "I missed you so much!"
He suddenly felt a blur in his consciousness, traversing back through the mundane two years, returning to the year he was 16
Chen Chengyu returned to the rental house happily, humming a tune, with light footsteps
The cheers rose in waves, and no one paid attention to the blood spilled on the field by the two individuals. Blood trickled from the corners of their eyes, their lips were cracked, they were drenched in sweat, gasping for breath, yet they fought with increasing courage.
Luo Youqian turned his head to look, and in an instant, a whirlwind brewed in his eyes. He was held by the coach, who scolded in a low voice: "When did you become so impatient!"
After getting off the subway near Yicheng Mansion, Chen Cheng glanced at the sky and estimated that it was going to rain again. Having not brought an umbrella, he thought that he could hitch a ride with Xu Dafu's wealthy car today, which reassured him.
If it were someone else who lost control like this in the ring, they would surely be easily exploited by their opponent and quickly knocked out. However, Luo Youqian is inherently an offensive fighter, with punches and kicks that carry great force
The wounds on his body were inflicted by him
With a straight back, covered in blood, both my own and that of my opponent, sweat seeps into the wounds, causing my teeth to tremble from the pain
Ye Zi: Remember to put on makeup, I don't play with slobs
The returning champion
In the midst of her speech, Xu Qianye suddenly furrowed her brows, slamming her wine glass onto the table, "Damn! Look over there, isn't that the little vixen!"
"Chen Cheng, I owe you an apology for this matter. If you need my assistance in the future, I will do my utmost to help you!" Zhiqin spoke from the heart
However, what he did not expect was that immediately after, he turned and leaped, delivering a kick directly to his waist and abdomen
Hit him! Song Qi!" he shouted with red eyes
Chen Cheng: We, the lower class, do not have the habit of going out with lipstick and foundation, so just bear with it
Boxing is not very popular in the country, but once you immerse yourself in it, you will be completely captivated.
Her red lips slightly parted, she exhaled and smiled alluringly: "What is there to fear"
"He is still my defeated opponent, even after not having fought for two years"
Compared to Chen Cheng, who has just finished work, he is plain-faced, dressed in a white shirt and black pants, carrying a canvas bag and wearing white sneakers
Song Qi, national professional boxing championship lightweight champion; national youth professional boxing championship lightweight third place
Luo Youqian, national youth professional boxing lightweight champion; national amateur boxing lightweight runner-up across all age groups
These words were spoken arrogantly, and Song Qideng's expression changed instantly as he gritted his teeth and said: "You can try."
It is the prize money for winning the competition
Upon entering the restroom, Xu Qianye applied foundation on Chen Cheng, painted her lips with a fiery red, and drew bold arched eyebrows with heavy eyeliner
Yezi: It has been such a long time since we last met, come out quickly, don't just work day in and day out, your sister will take care of you
that is the "little brat" referred to by Xu Qianye
Having done such a shameless thing, how dare she come out, damn it! Beat her!" After saying this, she stood up in a flurry and rushed over.
"One should try everything possible; casting a wide net is the only way to catch something." Chen Cheng's lips curled into a lazy smile
Chen Cheng put away his phone, smiled, and then turned around to leave the community
