The martial arts schools in the small town are mostly located on this street.
To attract business and save face, some schools hang signs that read "Chinese Number One," while others display "Unbeatable in the Province."
Liu Mei is quite bold; she has even hung a sign declaring herself the "Street Champion," provoking other schools to challenge her frequently.
One day, before they had finished breakfast, they heard someone knocking at the door.
Liu Mei dropped her bowl and ran off.
Not only did she run, but she also dragged Ling Yunhan along with her.
The two of them ran all the way to the riverbank before stopping, collapsing under a willow tree.
Although Liu Mei didn’t seem to have any other skills, her ability to escape was absolutely unmatched.
Moreover, she never chose her path; she always ran in a straight line.
When faced with obstacles like houses or walls, she would simply leap over them with remarkable agility.
Additionally, Liu Mei had exceptionally sharp hearing and quick reflexes. Several times, it was still early dawn when she would pull him out of bed while he was still half-asleep and groggy.
Ling Yunhan often found himself disheveled and in a state of panic, which made him tremble at the sound of knocking.
Fortunately, the martial arts school uniforms were white robes; as long as he threw one on and tied it up, it made for a convenient escape.
Panting heavily, Ling Yunhan finally caught his breath and said, "Well, Master of the Pavilion, you should at least face them once. What kind of situation is it to keep avoiding them?"
Liu Mei shook her head. "It's not wise to confront them head-on."
Ling Yunhan scoffed. "Do you even have any real skills?"
Liu Mei cleared her throat and sighed inwardly: it wasn't that she lacked courage; it was that the opponent was too strong.
She glanced at Ling Yunhan quietly.
Ling Yunhan was chewing on a willow twig, squinting at the scenery, seemingly lost in thought.
Fortunately, he didn’t seem intent on forcing her for an answer.
On that day when they first met, she thought he was just a lewd little nobody.
After cleaning up, she realized that Ling Yunhan was a whole head and a half taller than her, with fair skin and an attractive appearance.
She sighed inwardly: he was probably the young master of a wealthy family who had fallen on hard times, delicate and well-groomed.
In this chaotic world, there were many people like him; they truly shared a common plight.
Ling Yunhan opened his collar, revealing smooth, pale skin that accentuated his bright eyes and white teeth. Although Liu Mei had seen many stunning men skilled in seduction, he was the most handsome man she had ever encountered.
Ling Yunhan turned his head and glanced at her sideways: "Do I look good?"
Liu Mei foolishly smiled and replied, "You look good."
Ling Yunhan's lips twitched: "It's fine to look at me, but don't drool over other men; it makes you look cheap."
Only then did she realize how embarrassing her behavior was. Liu Mei quickly turned her gaze away, unsure where to place her hands and feet. Suddenly, her heart raced like a startled deer, feeling flustered.
In the distance, someone came running, calling out loudly to rescue her from the awkward situation: " Master Let's go back. Those people aren't here to challenge; they're here to learn."
Liu Mei jumped up and squinted to see who it was; it turned out to be Aunt Zhang.
Ling Yunhan chuckled: "Oh, there really are some who lack insight."
Liu Mei nodded: "Yeah."
Suddenly feeling something was off, she turned around and glared at him, "Who are you calling blind?! Aren't you from Changyu Martial Arts School too?"
Ling Yunhan sighed: "Sigh, I guess I'm also lacking insight."
When they returned to the martial arts school, Ling Yunhan was taken aback.
He thought there would be at most one student.
To his surprise, there were enough children standing in the courtyard to fill it completely.
Upon seeing Liu Mei, they all bowed in unison: "Hello, Director."
Liu Mei nodded, "Okay."
Before Liu Mei could speak, the children bowed to Ling Yunhan and said, "Hello, Master."
Ling Yunhan also nodded and smiled.
Liu Mei quickly waved her hand, "Wrong. He is here to learn martial arts too."
The children immediately called out in unison, "Hello, Senior Brother."
"Call him Junior Brother," Liu Mei shook her head again.
The children's round eyes stared at Ling Yunhan.
Ling Yunhan glared at Liu Mei, "What do you mean? I clearly came first."
Liu Mei rolled her eyes at him, "They have been learning from me for a year. Do you think you are a Junior Brother?"
The children immediately bowed again, "Hello, Junior Brother."
Ling Yunhan's expression was as if he had swallowed a fly.
Liu Mei looked back at him with amusement.
After a long while, he sighed reluctantly and bowed, "Hello, Senior Brothers and Sisters."
