Chapter 195: I want to learn kung fu

Both of them stood in front of the mysterious person’s grave, searching for clues. Unfortunately, it was an unnamed grave with a blank tombstone, which made it impossible to guess the identity.

Not a single weed could be found on the grave, and there were signs that the soil had been recently disturbed, probably cleared by the enigmatic person just before. Compared to the other graves, it seemed that only this unnamed one was treated this way.

Ye Qiu and Uncle Ying exchanged glances, feeling that their search had been fruitless. Not to mention whether the mysterious person was from the Dugu family, the near-loss of their lives was quite disheartening.

Why did he lash out in madness, attacking on sight? What was his story? The two had no way of knowing.

After a while, Uncle Ying broke the silence, "That person just now was probably not from the Dugu family. The Dugu elder I remember didn’t have such a strong murderous aura and wasn’t that tall, but his moves resembled the elder’s..."

Uncle Ying also felt puzzled, could this person be a disciple of the Dugu family? Perhaps that was the only explanation that made sense.

It was a pity that the man was mentally unstable and prone to sudden outbursts of violence, which made him exceedingly dangerous; otherwise, they could have talked to him about matters of the Dugu.

In the end, they left the place. The mysterious person had vanished, and finding him again would be extremely difficult, especially since he was so dangerous, enough to still leave Ye Qiu feeling uneasy.

Upon reaching the foot of the mountain, Uncle Ying didn’t return to Zhongshan city as he had an appointment to see a friend, so they parted ways.

Watching Uncle Ying depart, Ye Qiu shook his head. Uncle Ying was a man from the martial world; why would he willingly play a role akin to a butler for the Huo family? This was something Ye Qiu couldn’t comprehend.

It took Ye Qiu a whole day to travel back to Zhongshan city. He hadn’t returned for two days, and Miss Shen Mengchen had been nearly frantic in her search for him.

In his phone were over a hundred missed calls, all from Shen Mengchen. As soon as he entered the villa, he saw Miss Shen Mengchen with a grim face, while Niu Yinyin stayed at a distance, not daring to approach. However, Shangguan Hong lifted her glasses and signaled to Ye Qiu who had just come in.

Ye Qiu knew that Miss Shen was about to lose her temper, simmering like a small volcano on the verge of eruption.

"Ye Qiu, you damn thing, where have you been these past two days? You’ve made this miss go through so much trouble to find you!" Shen Mengchen stood with her hands on her hips, looking ready to devour Ye Qiu.

Rarely seeing Shen Mengchen angry, Ye Qiu chuckled, "Did the miss encounter any troubles?"

"Humph, see for yourself!" Shen Mengchen angrily threw a magazine down in front of Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu glanced at the magazine; it was a tabloid.

However, he was soon drawn to the images on the cover.

Wasn’t that him? And Mu Wanqing, huh? Why was Shen Mengchen also featured on this cover?

Ye Qiu immediately put on a wry smile, had the inevitable finally arrived?

He knew the incident with Mu Wanqing would make the news, and sure enough, just a few days after the concert, there it was, headlining an entertainment magazine.

But what puzzled him was not just his and Mu Wanqing’s appearance on the magazine, but also why Shen Mengchen was included.

Speaking of which, the most frustrated person was Shen Mengchen herself. She was a fan of Mu Wanqing and would follow her outside of work. She never expected that just after paparazzi exposed Mu Wanqing and Ye Qiu’s incident, and her commenting on it on forums, she’d find out she was being followed within a couple of days. Furthermore, paparazzi infiltrated Longjia Company seeking news about Ye Qiu, and even her position as company director caught their attention. Naturally, the situation took a wild turn, as Ye Qiu, being Shen Mengchen’s bodyguard and holding a unique status in Longjia, as well as being a person of interest to the former director Shen Tianlong, thus involuntarily made Shen Mengchen the subject of explosive news on the entertainment front page.

Famous star confesses love to unknown hero during the rescue; beautiful director steps in!

The dramatization was excessively sensational yet successfully captured public attention, portraying Shen Mengchen as a woman of strong desires, even insinuating that she was keeping the unnamed hero, Ye Qiu, and adding a series of baseless accusations.

Casually closing the magazine, Ye Qiu gave a bitter smile and said, "Miss, you don’t believe this nonsense, do you?"

In the heat of her anger, Shen Mengchen replied, "Just look at the nonsense they’ve written. Just yesterday, Mu Wanqing’s fans came to Longjia’s doorstep to blame me for splitting you and Mu Wanqing."

Ye Qiu couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. What a mess this had turned into! It was no wonder that Shen Mengchen was annoyed. If it weren’t for him saving Mu Wanqing, such trouble wouldn’t have arisen. At that moment, he had no idea that the beauty sitting beside him was a major star.

"Didn’t the miss use your public relations skills to cover this up?" Ye Qiu asked.

"Hmph, if I hadn’t acted, those fans would have almost barged into my office to confront me." Evidently, Shen Mengchen, tormented by public opinion, had taken action. As the director of a major company, she couldn’t just let such rumors spread. The second day after the magazine was published, she had her lawyer visit the magazine company, demanding that the whole page of news be retracted.

"Hmph, just because of you, even though the fans are no longer causing trouble, the employees in the company are all gossiping about me, the chairman," Shen Mengchen pouted.

"Miss, please calm down. What can I do to make you feel better?" Ye Qiu had to compensate for the trouble he had brought upon himself.

"I want to learn martial arts from you," Shen Mengchen said.

The moment martial arts were mentioned, Niu Yinyin, this mischievous girl, also came over to join the fun, clamoring, "Yinyin wants to learn too, Brother Ye Qiu, you have to teach me martial arts as well!"

"Sure," Ye Qiu agreed readily, to avoid Shen Mengchen continuing her tantrum. It was just learning martial arts, after all. Training wasn’t as easy as one might imagine; he figured it wouldn’t be long before Shen Mengchen gave up on her own.

Shangguan Hong watched the scene with amusement, without following suit to learn martial arts. She pursed her lips and continued to read her book.

With both girls clamoring to learn martial arts and looking serious about it, Ye Qiu had to impart some skills. However, considering Shen Mengchen’s age, she could only practice some basic moves, while Niu Yinyin could start building a foundation from a young age.

"What kind of martial arts do you want to learn?" Ye Qiu asked.

"Anti-Wolf Technique," Shen Mengchen immediately said.

Niu Yinyin clamored to learn some impressive martial arts.

Shen Mengchen puffed out her chest, her curves ready to burst forth, and Ye Qiu glanced at her and coughed, saying, "The Anti-Wolf Technique is simple, but for missy here, learning a few moves to fend off perverts and hoodlums is indeed a good idea."

Ye Qiu then demonstrated a simple movement. Watching it, Shen Mengchen exclaimed, "That can fend off hoodlums?" with a look of disbelief.

"Of course, why not let missy try it out to see if it works?" Ye Qiu said with a smile.

Shen Mengchen agreed and then pretended to walk down the street, while Ye Qiu acted the hoodlum. After trying it out, Shen Mengchen performed the previously demonstrated action with aplomb, actually managing to thwart Ye Qiu’s hoodlum advance.

"If I practice it more, will I be able to easily deal with bad guys then?" Shen Mengchen asked with a sense of achievement.

"Dealing with the average hoodlum wouldn’t be a problem," Ye Qiu admitted.

"What about dealing with you, then?" Shen Mengchen picked up on the insinuation.

Ye Qiu felt awkward for a moment, realizing that missy wasn’t learning martial arts just to defend against perverts, but against him too.

"Against me, these few movements are naturally useless," Ye Qiu said truthfully.

"That won’t do, I want to learn something more powerful," Shen Mengchen protested.

"I do have a secret technique that I don’t share lightly, do you want to learn it?" Ye Qiu said seriously.

"Give it to me quickly, what’s the move?" Shen Mengchen said excitedly.

"This move is called ’Monkey Steals Peach’!" Ye Qiu reached out a hand and demonstrated.

Shen Mengchen repeated the move with a doubtful expression, feeling it was odd, and asked, "Why is it called ’Monkey Steals Peach’?"

Before Ye Qiu could speak, Shangguan Hong snorted uncontrollably and burst into laughter.

Seeing Shangguan Hong’s reaction, and laughing uncontrollably, Shen Mengchen suddenly realized the essence of Ye Qiu’s move. No wonder she felt it was odd. ’Stealing Peach’ actually meant grabbing there. This shameless jerk, Shen Mengchen clenched her teeth in anger, "Ye Qiu, you scoundrel, you actually taught me such a despicable technique, I’m going to fight you to the end!" With that, she lunged at Ye Qiu with teeth bared and claws drawn.

"Miss, this move can definitely work against anyone!"

"Nonsense, you hoodlum!" Shen Mengchen chased after Ye Qiu, who was fleeing all over the room, determined to not let the matter rest until they settle it.

Suddenly, the room was lively with commotion, leaving Niu Yinyin to reveal a giggly and adorable expression.
