Ye Tianxin’s eyes were taunting.
“I know you don’t want to admit defeat. That’s fine. You can try and hit me. I will admit defeat if you can make me even bow my head.”
Ye Tianxin then tossed the towel on the ground and walked away.
The girls from wealthy families did not expect Ye Tianxin to be so skilled in combat fighting.
They had been sent to all kinds of martial arts classes when they were young: taekwondo, jujitsu, and other self-defense skills. It was difficult to learn martial arts. Not many had the willpower to persevere.
Besides, their families had enough money to hire bodyguards that could protect the girls.
Why would they want to go through all that training and make lives difficult for themselves?
They did not expect the girls to start a fight during the banquet, the bodyguards were waiting for them in another room.
They didn’t expect the girls to start a fight and get beaten up so badly over an uninvited guest.
Ye Tianxin’s moves did not all look so elegant and fancy.
Li Qingcang had taught Ye Tianxin combat moves that were more practical and for self-defense.
It did not matter if the moves didn’t make Ye Tianxin look good when she fought. It was more important to cause serious harm to one’s enemy.
When Ye Tianxin was the only one left standing in the room while the others were all sprawled on the ground, it was clear who looked better.
Of course, it was Ye Tianxin who looked good in the end.
The most beautiful kind of move was the one that would lead to victory. Only the winner looked good.
When Ye Tianxin walked out of the banquet hall, she saw Li Qingcang and ran toward him.
Li QIngcang’s heart skipped a beat when he saw Ye Tianxin running.
He was worried that she might trip over her skirt and fall.
“Tianxin, did you not enjoy yourself at the banquet?”
Ye Tianxin held Li Qingcang’s hands and smiled sweetly. “It wasn’t fun at all. Those people despise our Empire. They had the audacity to say that we couldn’t afford eggs or build tall buildings. They even thought that our women bind their feet. Qingcang, don’t these ignorant girls seem like a joke to you too?”
Was their behavior laughable?
Of course.
The Empire had a strong foundation that could not be destroyed easily. The Empire only liked to put up a front and make other countries think that they were weak.
In the past, the other countries deemed the Empire to be small, powerless, and weak.
In reality, the Empire was not as helpless as it seemed.
“This is ridiculous.”
Li Qingcang agreed with Ye Tianxin.
“So you fought with the girls in the banquet hall. Does it feel good to exercise those muscles?”
“Yes.”
Ye Tianxin flexed her arms. “Qingcang, you should’ve seen me fight just now. I’m so good at it. I’ve not worked out for so long. I suddenly feel so good after fighting. It feels so refreshing and comfortable.”
Li Qingcang looked at Ye Tianxin affectionately and said, “As long as you are happy...”
Nothing else mattered more to Li Qingcang than Ye Tianxin’s happiness.
As long as she was happy...
Even if she bore a hole in the sky, he would always be there for her.
He would mend the hole in the sky.
“QIngcang, give me a hug.”
Ye Tianxin stretched out her hands, beckoning for an embrace.
Li Qingcang scratched the top of Ye Tianxin’s nose lightly.
“Are you tired now? Next time, you don’t have to fight them yourself.”
