Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“I think you’re pretty good at fighting. Well, would you mind if we had a compet.i.tion?” Although Chen Meng felt that it was slightly impolite, he attempted to give it a try.

Chen Meng was a grow-up man, while Gu Ning was a teenage girl. It seemed unfair, but he was really curious about Gu Ning’s ability. However, Gu Ning was excited about his invitation. She actually wanted to practice!

Chen Meng served in the military. He wasn’t an ordinary soldier either. If Gu Ning wanted to practice, he would be an excellent choice. Therefore, the minute Chen Meng invited her, Gu Ning answered, “Sure! I had the same idea.”

Then, both of them went to a broad square to compete with each other.

In the beginning, neither of them used their full force, not out of disrespect, but because they didn’t want to show their real strength right away. They would adjust themselves according to the other’s ability. In addition, they didn’t plan to defeat the other. One wanted to practice, while the other wanted to have a try.

Thus it was even at the beginning. However, Gu Ning’s movements shocked Chen Meng, because she moved so professionally and strongly. She must have received years of professional training.

After a while, both of them became more aggressive, but it was still even.

Chen Meng was gradually astonished. Gu Ning was almost as strong as a middle-level soldier in the special forces.

The compet.i.tion continued. They once again used more strength to compete with each other. Although it looked even, they knew that they were both losing energy.

Gu Ning wasn’t surprised at Chen Meng’s ability, because he was a military officer, but Chen Meng was totally astonished by Gu Ning. It was so unbelievable!

He had trained for over 10 years to be so powerful, but an 18-year-old girl was able to do the same thing as him!

Chen Meng knew that if the compet.i.tion went on, he was likely to lose, which was shameful. Thus he gave Gu Ning a hint to stop.

Gu Ning also had no idea how long she could continue. She wasn’t sure she would win either. She wanted to test her real ability, so she didn’t use her power to a.s.sist her.

“Wow, it is so unbelievable! Are you sure you’re only 18?” Chen Meng seemed disappointed, but he also admired Gu Ning.

“I used my full strength already. I couldn’t continue either,” Gu Ning said. She was being modest. Chen Meng of course knew that Gu Ning didn’t want to be proud. She helped him to save face too. He had a growing interest in Gu Ning now, but not as a man to a woman. There was an over 10 year age gap between them after all.

“Can I invite you to have breakfast together?” Chen Meng asked with sincerity.

“Of course!” Gu Ning accepted.

The two walked towards the outside of this living area.

“Are you studying in a high school now?” Chen Meng asked.

“Yes, I’m a senior in City F,” Gu Ning replied.

“A senior. Then you’re going to attend the National College Entrance Exam in half a year. Which university is your favorite?” Chen Meng added.

“The Capital University,” Gu Ning said.

“The Capital University!” Chen Meng was a little surprised. He looked at Gu Ning with his eyes full of respect. “Wow, it’s the number one university in our country. You must be very academic!”
