Martial Arts Song

Chapter 23 Sleeping
"No way, is what you said before true? Did you really not practice any more after you went back every day?!"

Upon hearing Chen Qing's words, Zhuang Zhiqiang's eyes suddenly widened, "How is this possible?!"

This somewhat subverted his understanding. Doesn't Kung Fu only become stronger if you practice it diligently? How could the opponent become better than the rest of them within a month without practicing more? !
He subconsciously wanted to open his mouth to refute with his own knowledge.

After Chen Qing saw it, he interrupted in time: "Whether you have practiced more, I will find out if I go to your house tonight."

"……All right."

Zhuang Zhiqiang, who was silenced, had no choice but to give up.

After that, the two of them walked towards the place where Chen Qing's family rented in Nanba District.

Because of the delay in the alley, it was already dark when they arrived at the three-story old cement house where Chen Qing's family rented.

"Your house is okay. Although the building is a bit old, it's still quite big."

Standing downstairs, Zhuang Zhiqiang looked at the three-story old cement building with lights on and said.

Chen Qing replied calmly: "The room on the second floor, counting from the right, and the third door is my home. This building belongs to someone else. All the rooms with lights on you see are other tenants."

"..."

Zhuang Zhiqiang suddenly looked embarrassed.

Chen Qing didn't think it was anything. He said, "Wait for me downstairs. I'll go up and say something, and then we'll come down and go to your house together."

"Row."

Zhuang Zhiqiang replied simply.

After listening to Chen Qing's words, he had no desire to explore this building at all.

After that, Chen Qing skillfully went upstairs in the dark, went straight to the second floor, walked through the corridor and greeted the neighbors he met, then opened the door and returned to his rented home.

At home at this time, Chen Zhengzhong had returned from work, while Chen Yang had returned to school.

Chen Qing didn't waste any time and told Chen Zhengzhong directly about not sleeping at home today but going to sleep at the home of his classmates in the martial arts school.

With Chen Yang's help in finding out, Chen Zhengzhong also knew that Chen Qing's goal was to apply for the patrol room.

Although he was not optimistic about it in his heart - without background, connections and money, it was basically impossible to get into the patrol room.

But as long as Chen Qing is not a bad learner and doesn't join a gang, he will feel relieved.

Therefore, after he walked out of the room and took a look at Zhuang Zhiqiang downstairs, who did not look like a gang member, he said nothing more.

After saying hello, Chen Qing quickly went downstairs to join Zhuang Zhiqiang.

"That was your dad just now?"

After Chen Qing came down, Zhuang Zhiqiang asked proactively.

"Ah."

Chen Qing nodded and said, "Let's go."

Zhuang Zhiqiang nodded when he heard this.

After that, the two started walking towards Yunyang District.

Zhuang Zhiqiang's home is in Yunyang District. Chen Qing asked about it on the way back.

Therefore, the two of them almost returned to the Hu-shaped Gate first, and then went to Yunyang District from Songshan Road where the Hu-shaped Gate is located.

Compared with the poor Nanba District, Yunyang District, as the city center, is much safer at night.

There are patrols here even at night, unlike Nanba and Hexi, which only have patrols during the day but not at night.

Moreover, the facilities on the roads in Yunyang District are complete, and basically every road has street lighting.

The closer you go to the center of Yunyang District, the brighter the lights become, because many shops in Yunyang District are open for business at night.

The security here is relatively good. Whether it is the patrol room or the Iron Fist Club, the black and white roads have relatively complete and orderly management here. Unlike Nanba and Hexi, shops operating at night are at risk of being robbed. .

After the two of them walked safely from Nanba District back to Songshan Road where the Hu-shaped Gate is located, they walked towards the urban area of ​​Yunyang District under the illumination of street lights.

However, as he continued walking, Chen Qing's brows gradually wrinkled.

Because, as the lights on the road gradually brightened, Zhuang Zhiqiang still did not ask to stop, which meant that he had not reached the other party's house yet. The two of them walked like this until the lights became neon and Chen Qing became more and more familiar, and then Zhuang Zhiqiang felt able to speak.

"arrive."

As the sound came, Chen Qing stood still, looked at a small two-story garden house in front of him, and then looked at the end of the street in the distance. He could already vaguely see the familiar big cross. When he turned the corner of Jienna Street, he looked back at Zhuang Zhiqiang.

"Your home is so close to Grand Cross Street?"

Chen Qing had known for a long time that the dozen teenagers who practiced boxing at Huxingmen had some money at home, but he did not expect that they were so wealthy.

Suddenly, he felt like he had lost some money on the two hundred yuan tuition he had asked for.

It seemed that this was not the first time he encountered this situation. Zhuang Zhiqiang said quickly: "Rent! Rent!"

"Renting a house here is not something ordinary people can afford."

Chen Qing said lightly.

Hearing this, Zhuang Zhiqiang scratched his head and said, "If you feel that the two hundred tuition fees just now are less, can I give you an additional one hundred?"

"Need not."

Chen Qing shook his head, "Since the price has been negotiated in advance, there is no reason to go back and raise the price. Okay, open the door quickly, my bedtime is coming."

"So early?!"

Zhuang Zhiqiang was shocked.

What time will you go to bed now? !
Chen Qing glanced at him and said, "Do you think I'm kidding you?"

Zhuang Zhiqiang was speechless.

But he still didn't believe it in his heart. While looking at Chen Qing with suspicion, he took out the key and opened the iron door in front.

As he opened the iron door, Chen Qing stepped in directly.

The garden is not big, and there are no flowers or plants, but the ground is kept clean.

When Chen Qing and Zhuang Zhiqiang opened the door, the door on the first floor of the bungalow opened almost immediately afterwards. A woman in her thirties, wearing a black cheongsam with red dots and her hair tied up, walked out. out.

"Junjun, please go back -"

Her words stopped abruptly after seeing Chen Qing.

"Mom, this is Chen Qing, my classmate in the martial arts school."

After Zhuang Zhiqiang closed the iron door, he turned around and introduced: "Chen Qing, this is my mother."

"Hello, aunt."

Chen Qing bowed slightly and greeted.

After hearing this, Zhuang Zhiqiang's mother smiled slightly and said, "Hello, I am Junjun's mother, my surname is Wu. You can just call me Aunt Wu."

"it is good."

Chen Qing smiled and nodded, then looked back at Zhuang Zhiqiang: "Junjun?"

"nickname..."

Zhuang Zhiqiang replied while holding his forehead.

Chen Qing smiled and said nothing. After all, he also had the nickname Bingbing.

At this time, Zhuang Zhiqiang's mother smiled and spoke again: "I rarely see Junjun bringing his classmates back. Come in quickly. By the way, have you eaten?"

As she said this, she turned around and waved her hands back in greeting.

Chen Qingze stepped into the room and said with a smile: "Aunt Wu, no need, we are going to bed soon."

"sleep?!"

Zhuang Zhiqiang's mother was stunned for a moment, then looked at Chen Qing and then Zhuang Zhiqiang in shock.
