Chapter 161 Sparring Part 1
Ma Junjie scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed.
Carina Lau had already turned around and was walking upstairs.
Ma Junjie followed silently, thinking to himself.
What kind of person is Carina Lau's father?
Why did Carina Lau bring me to see him today?
For a moment, Ma Junjie was really confused.
After walking for a while, the two reached the third floor.
Carina Lau stopped at a doorway on the third floor.
She turned to look at Ma Junjie and said,
"Ah Jie, relax, don't be nervous."
Ma Junjie straightened his back, forcing himself to remain calm, and said...
"Sister Liu, I...I'm not nervous."
Carina Lau smiled faintly, then turned around and knocked on the door.
"Knock knock knock!"
Soon, sounds came from inside.
"Come in!"
Carina Lau pushed open the door and went inside.
Ma Junjie took a deep breath and went inside.
Upon entering, I discovered that the room was a very large gym.
At first glance, it looked like I had entered a shop outside.
Treadmill, hand press machine, dumbbells, and even a pool table.
Ma Junjie was dumbfounded.
At that moment, a voice came.
"Jialing, what brings you here today?"
Carina Lau laughed,
"Dad, I miss you!"
"Hahaha!" A burst of hearty laughter rang out.
Ma Junjie looked towards the sound and saw a man wearing a white tank top, revealing his large biceps.
The man was wiping his sweat with a towel.
A moment later, with a "thud," he threw the towel onto the table beside him.
Said,
"Perfect timing, I just finished my workout."
"Come, have a seat, let's have some tea!"
Ma Junjie's brain suddenly went into a standby state.
Because he noticed that the person Carina Lau called "Dad" looked very young.
His overall mental state is that of a young person.
He looks to be at most forty years old.
Ma Junjie could hardly believe it.
Carina Lau is 40 years old, her father... it's impossible...
"Hey, who's this young man?...I've never seen him before!" Carina Lau's father suddenly asked.
Carina Lau quickly glanced at Ma Junjie.
I patted him on the shoulder.
"Ah Jie, my dad's asking you a question!"
Ma Junjie exclaimed "Oh!" as he came to his senses, and called out.
"Hello, Uncle Liu!"
"My name is Ma Junjie, and I work at Sister Liu's factory."
Liu Jialing's father, Liu Xiong, glanced at Ma Junjie.
A faint smile,
"Oh, I see!"
"Come... sit down and have some tea!"
Ma Junjie quickly expressed his gratitude.
"Okay, thank you, Uncle Liu!"
Ma Junjie walked over to the tea table, moved a chair, and sat down.
As soon as Ma Junjie sat down, Liu Xiong placed a cup of tea in front of him.
Ma Junjie was a little flattered and quickly thanked him.
"Thank you, Uncle Liu!"
Liu Xiong smiled faintly again.
Once everyone had tea in front of them, Liu Xiong picked up his teacup and took a sip.
He looked at Carina Lau and asked,
"Jialing, tell me honestly, what good news brings you here this time?"
Carina Lau had just picked up her teacup when she heard Liu Xiong's words, so she put the teacup down.
He chuckled.
"Dad, you're as insightful as ever. You knew without me even saying anything."
Liu Xiong burst into laughter.
He took a cigar from the table and lit it.
He took a few big gulps and said,
"Jialing, you're my daughter, don't I know you?"
"Tell me, what good news is it!"
Carina Lau smiled gently, then looked at Ma Junjie.
Ma Junjie felt a sudden pang of panic when Carina Lau looked at him.
I thought to myself, "This...this won't involve me, will it?"
Then, Carina Lau slowly spoke,
"Dad, haven't you always wanted to find someone who's good at fighting, someone to spar with you?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiong was probably surprised that Carina Lau would suddenly ask such a question.
He took the cigar out of his mouth.
Look at Carina Lau with wide eyes.
"Jialing, what do you mean by that?"
"Could it be... that you found it for me again?"
After a few seconds,
Liu Xiong seemed somewhat dejected again, muttering to himself,
"Forget it, forget it. The people you found are all scoundrels. Last time you said you found a provincial martial arts champion, and... well..."
As Liu Xiong spoke, he shook his head, a hint of disdain on his face.
Upon hearing this, Carina Lau became a little anxious.
She quickly said.
"Dad, I was really bad at judging people before. I hired the wrong person and got scammed!"
"But this time, hehe... Dad, you can rest assured, he's definitely a master!"
"Oh, really?" Liu Xiong asked deliberately, still somewhat skeptical.
Carina Lau clearly noticed that Liu Xiong still didn't quite trust her.
smiled,
"Dad, how about this, let's make a bet."
Liu Xiong's eyes lit up.
"How do we gamble?"
Carina Lau smiled faintly.
"Dad, it's simple. You and the person I found this time will have a match. If you win, I'll grant you one request; if you lose, you grant me one request!"
Liu Xiong dismissed it with disdain.
"Hehe, Jialing, it seems you don't know how powerful your dad is."
"The person you hired is utterly useless!"
Carina Lau became a little anxious upon hearing this and said,
"Dad, I'm asking you, do you dare to bet with me?"
Liu Xiong noticed that Carina Lau seemed quite serious.
He laughed and said,
"OK!"
"I'll trust you one last time. Call your men over; I'll bet with you!"
Upon hearing this, Carina Lau finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Dad, it's a deal then!"
"If you lose, you have to grant me one request."
Liu Xiong didn't take it seriously; in fact, he just wanted to laugh.
He replied casually.
"Okay, I promise!"
"However, your chances of winning are extremely slim."
"By the way, where are your people?"
Carina Lau chuckled, turned her head, and looked at Ma Junjie.
"Dad, the person I'm talking about is both far away and right before my eyes!"
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie's heart skipped a beat, and he swallowed hard, feeling inexplicably embarrassed.
After hearing what Carina Lau said, Liu Xiong noticed that she was looking at Ma Junjie.
I instantly understood what Carina Lau meant.
Liu Xiong's pupils dilated slightly.
He looked Ma Junjie up and down.
After a few seconds,
"Hahaha!" Liu Xiong laughed heartily without any attempt to hide his laughter.
He suddenly laughed so hard that he choked on a mouthful of milk.
He coughed for a while.
At this moment, the most embarrassed person was undoubtedly Ma Junjie.
He understood why Carina Lau had brought him here today.
He couldn't come up with this goal even after racking his brains.
He actually... he actually wanted me to "fight" with his father!
Ma Junjie thought for a moment, then suddenly stood up and said...
"Sister Liu, I don't want to fight!"
Carina Lau stood up as well.
He put his hand on Ma Junjie's shoulder.
"Ah Jie, calm down!"
"I'm not asking you to fight, I want you to have a sparring match with my dad!"
"My dad's a martial arts enthusiast. I heard about Hu Ling'er from you, and how you saved me before. It reminds me, you seem to be quite skilled!"
"You two can have a quick sparring session to satisfy my dad's hobby."
Ma Junjie was still displeased.
Because Carina Lau acted on her own initiative and did not follow her own opinions at all.
Making myself do this now would be very disrespectful to myself.
Ma Junjie gritted his teeth and prepared to leave.
At this moment, Carina Lau suddenly walked up to Ma Junjie, stopped him, and whispered a few words in his ear.
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie's expression changed, and he froze on the spot.
Seeing Ma Junjie like this, Liu Xiong suddenly became interested.
He said loudly,
"Young man, now that you're here, don't leave!"
"It just so happens that I haven't had a sparring partner in a while. Although you might not be very good, I'll just have to make do!"
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie felt a surge of anger rising within him.
He turned around and slowly looked at Liu Xiong.
He said firmly,
"Uncle Liu, alright, let's have a little sparring session then!"
