I Really Didn’t Want to Increase My Favorability!

Chapter 42

After Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu took Ji Yun out, Xu Lin also sat down in the living room. The two sisters sat on separate sides.

How did you and Dad agree in the beginning?

To maintain myself in the limelight and earn 30 million yuan within 5 years.

Did you achieve it?

Chu Fengyi, Im your sister. Who allowed you to speak to me like this!?

Alright, sis, did you achieve it?

You joined the entertainment company, or dad helped you privately, but even so, with enough resources, did you accomplish it?

Why havent I reached the frontline? Every new TV drama I starred in became popular.

People watch it because of your face. How many actually see it through to the end? Besides, what about the 30 million?

According to the information I got from Dad, the agency doesnt take a cut. Isnt that just enough for you?

Chu Fengyi, the time hasnt come yet, right?

Yes, theres still half a year; no, 7 months. What can you do? Youve already announced a temporary retirement from the entertainment industry. Youre still lacking 10 million. Where will you get it?

You dont need to worry about that. I have my ways.

Think about it. It would be so much better to work at the company as a boss. Isnt it better than exposing yourself?

But I choose the path I want. I will persist until the end.

Chu Qingchan stared firmly into her sisters blue eyes, standing up. Chu Fengyi, have you ever heard me sing? How do you know Im not capable?

Alright, but Mother and the others want to see you. Wont you go back and visit?

Ill go back after Im done with everything.

By the way, are you really following Guan, the demon king? Well, thats not bad, but unless you become a new demon king, Dad wont acknowledge what youre doing.

I know, so I will work even harder, especially with Xu Lin by my side.

Xu Lin, who had been leisurely drinking and munching on melon seeds, looked up. What does that have to do with me?

I plan to have Xu Lin join the entertainment industry too. If a powerful star appears under my control, Dad will have to recognise me, right?

Hey, hey, wait a minute.

Thats fine too, but Auntie, your mother really misses you.

But the two sisters completely ignored his resistance, continuing their conversation.

Well I know. I already said Id go back after finishing things.

Chu Qingchan heard this and let out a deep sigh. She also wanted to go back, but she was afraid it might be her fathers trap.

Last time, she was tricked into coming home and ended up forcibly studying the companys affairs for two months. She really didnt enjoy those times.

Alright, when are you going back?

Why do I have to go back? Chu Qingchan didnt expect that, after all the twists and turns, they would still make her go home.

Dad said that before the end of this year, you must come back for a visit. He wants to talk to you.

Xu Lin~

Chu Qingchan glanced at him, and Xu Lin could only smile helplessly. What can I do? This is your family matter.

Brother-in-law, were you being fierce just now? Perfect; my sister doesnt want to go back, and I find it hard to explain. But if she cant be taken away by me, its fine.

Chu Fengyi looked at him, lightly twisting her wrist, her lips curving into a grin, making his hair stand on end.

What do you mean?

Heres the deal: you and I have a fight. If you win, Ill leave; if you lose, my sister goes back with me.

Do you think I can beat you?

In that case, I wont bully you. Ill use only 10 moves. As long as you dont fall, you win. How about that?

Hearing her proposal, Xu Lin narrowed his eyes, took a deep breath, stood up, and walked in front of her. Alright!

Chu Fengyi was also surprised. He agreed so readily. It seemed like her back throw last time didnt leave a lasting impression of her strength.

Can we do it in the living room?

Up to you. We can also go to the small square downstairs. In such a small space, you wont be able to avoid my attacks.

Alright. Xu Lin wasnt foolish. Although he just acquired the skill, even though his mind understood it, his body might not necessarily keep up. He didnt dare to be overconfident.

Are you sure? Chu Qingchan looked at him with some concern, imagining three hundred ways Xu Lin could get hurt.

Downstairs, it was lunchtime, and there werent many people in the small squarejust a few old men playing chess.

Seeing them approaching, a few old men glanced over, not at the masked Chu Qingchan but at the golden-haired Chu Fengyi.

Are you ready? Chu Fengyi scornfully beckoned with her finger.

Im ready!

Then 1!

With the sound of 1, Xu Lin suddenly felt darkness in front of him. The figure, several metres away, flashed directly in front of him, and a fist came crashing towards him!

Instinctively, Xu Lin stepped to the right, his body slightly pulled to the right, narrowly avoiding the punch that grazed past his ear.

Xu Lin was startled, exhaling a breath of relief. However, a sweeping kick followed immediately. He took a step backward, leaping 2 to 3 metres away, evading the attack.

Chu Fengyi watched him create distance, showing no signs of frustration. On the contrary, her eyes brightened. Interesting Last time, you intentionally let me throw you, didnt you? 3!

With the next onslaught coming in fast, like a blur, but accompanying his breath, everything in front of him seemed to slow down a bit.

His body moved instinctively again. A sidestep, and, in an instant, his foot kicked the horizontal bar behind him, creating a small depression.

Fuck! Not dodging would be fatal, right?!

Xu Lin was scared and ran towards the distance. She chased after him again, shouting,

4!

5!

6!

7!

8!

9!

So, there was a funny scenea guy being continuously attacked by a petite blonde girl. He swiftly circled around, avoiding the assaults.

With the count reaching 10, he seemed to adapt, aligning his body and steps perfectly with each move. His breath kept his mind and body in an optimal state.

In a sudden somersault, he dodged a cleverly angled knee strike and landed gracefully on a nearby platform.

Hehe, I won.

The old men watching the spectacle couldnt believe their eyes. Chu Qingchan also looked at Xu Lin in disbelief.

He actually dodged all of Little Sisters attacks.

If youre so capable, dont dodge. Take one of my punches!

Dont speak if you cant keep your word.

You deceived me. You know martial arts.

I dont know martial arts; I just know a bit of parkour. In a real fight, I wouldnt stand a chance against you.

Hmph! Hearing Xu Lins words, Chu Fengyi finally relaxed a bit.

Im not unable to keep up with your speed; Im just still in training, thats all.

She lifted her trouser leg, revealing several pieces of metal strapped to her slender ankle.

Damn This is way too outrageous, isnt it? If those were removed just now, wouldnt he have been punched to the hospital or skipped that step and gone straight to the crematorium?

She doesnt even look muscular; could it be natural super strength? Scary, really scary.

Alright, Ill count you as the winner this time. But next time, when we spar, lets do it head-on! She said it fiercely.

But before she could tidy her hair again, Xu Lin had already jumped down from the steps, running to her with a cheerful smile.

Do you need something, brother-in-law?

Yeah, about that Fengyi, brother-in-law, I want to learn a thing or two from you.

Learn from me.

As my master, I bow to you; please accept me as your disciple! Xu Lin looked at her with eager eyes, thinking, If you cant beat them, just join them!
