539 Surprise (2/2)
ma
Roland heaved a sigh. Im Qi Shaoqius friend. Im not that close to Jin Wenwen.
Slightly surprised, the middle-aged woman sized up Roland. Youre not Wenwens pursuer?
No.
The middle-aged woman immediately seemed embarrassed.
At this moment, Jin Wenwen interjected, Mom, will you give us a moment? Okay, just call me if you need anything.
Jin Wenwen nodded.
After the middle-aged woman left the ward, Jin Wenwen said with a smile, Sorry, my mom is just like that. Shes always blunt.
Roland was rather surprised that Jin Wenwen, despite her usual meanness and cynicism, actually apologized.
Stop looking at me as if I were an alien. Jin Wenwen chuckled. I had a near-death experience. Isnt it normal that I had some epiphanies?
At this moment, Jin Wenwen was less domineering, rather gentler and more feminine.
She looked less annoying than before.
When youre free, please tell Qi Shaoqiu to come visit me in his spare time. Jin Wenwen seemed to be at a loss. I want to talk to him about the past in peace. I did many wrong things, but he was partly responsible too.
Okay. Roland nodded. Ill relay the message for you, but I cant guarantee that hell come.
I understand. Jin Wenwen smiled casually now that Roland accepted her request. Also, youve come to me for something, right? After all, you hate me; you would never visit me unless you want something from me. Roland hummed in response. Actually, I want to know where the father and the son who hurt you live. You want to learn martial arts from them?
I think their Iron Head Art is quite good. Roland found a random excuse.
He couldnt reveal the energy masses anyway.
Jin Wenwens eyes bulged. You will become bald if you practice the Iron Head Art.
Well, Ill just check it out. I might not really learn it. Roland felt that he was sweating.
Did the old man lie when he said that the Iron Head Art wasnt the main reason for his baldness?
But he was going there for the energy masses, not the Iron Head Art. That should be fine He only hoped that he didnt have to practice the Iron Head Art to produce the energy masses.
He was still young and unmarried. He didnt want to get bald yet.
Looking at Rolands stiffened face, Jin Wenwen giggled, which affected her chest where she had a surgery. She frowned in pain but managed to hold it back. She said, Okay, I have to get some rest. You get on with your business. After I recover, Ill treat you and Qi Shaoqiu to a fancy dinner for lending me a hand even though we have a bad relationship.
She sounded very emotionally mature when she talked about that.
Roland confirmed that Jin Wenwen was a lot different from before.
He wondered if she had been possessed by someone else.
After obtaining the address from Jin Wenwen, Roland soon found the old man on his bike.
The old man was living in a typical quadrangle courtyard in the village.
The red gate of the courtyard was wide open, so Roland simply walked in. He saw the old man smacking red bricks against his head very fast with his legs stretched out.
When the red brick in his left hand was smashed, he would smash that in his right hand.
The red bricks shattered with a dull noise the moment they hit his head. The remains of the bricks paved a circle of rubble on the floor.
There was a heap of about fifty bricks before the old man. Very soon, he smashed all of them.
Then, he opened and raised his hands above his hand, before he slowly pressed them down to concentrate his qi on his abdomen as an ending movement.
Roland couldnt help but applaud.
He was truly impressed.
The old man wasnt too happy to see Roland. Young man, its a taboo to peep at somebody else whos practicing martial arts But were in a society of law now, so I wont punish you for that.
Roland chuckled and said, Uncle, youre truly generous. Im here to learn
At this moment, Rolands eyes suddenly caught a few masses of invisible energy in the hall across the fifteen-meter-long courtyard behind the old man.
