"Didn't you spend this past week hiding from the three madmen? You privately said you would turn them into three model students, and that remark was photographed and posted on the university forum. The three madmen then threatened to deal with you and make you regret being born. Weren't you hiding from them this past week?" Qiao Xiaoyu asked with a frown.
"Hahaha." Zhou Hong couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh. If Qiao Xiaoyu hadn't mentioned it now, Zhou Hong would have completely forgotten about such a trivial matter.
"Such a big thing happened, and you can still laugh," Qiao Xiaoyu said speechlessly.
"That's right. I went to Kunlun Mountain this past week." Zhou Hong couldn't be bothered to explain further. Since Qiao Xiaoyu said he went to hide, then he went to hide.
"What did you go to Kunlun Mountain for?"
"To be honest, I went to Kunlun Mountain for training. My strength has improved again. By the way, what are the strengths of these three madmen?" Zhou Hong asked.
"I'm not too sure, but some people on the forum say that the first madman, Cao Xiulang, is a ninth-stage martial artist, and the second and third madmen are both eighth-stage martial artists."
"Hahaha, what a coincidence. I've been training for a week, and my strength has increased to the tenth stage of a martial artist. I can just suppress them, so I came back." Zhou Hong laughed heartily and said.
Qiao Xiaoyu looked skeptical.
"I'm not lying. I'm now a tenth-stage martial artist. You'll see tomorrow how I deal with those three madmen." Zhou Hong chuckled.
"Zhou Hong, is that true? Are you really a tenth-stage martial artist now?" At this moment, Qiao Wanli also hurried out of the house. He had heard from Qiao Xiaoyu before that Zhou Hong had martial cultivation talent and had reached the seventh stage of a martial artist. He had originally intended to ask Zhou Hong to confirm, but unexpectedly, Zhou Hong had offended the three madmen and gone into hiding somewhere. Now that he was back, he claimed to have broken through to the tenth stage of a martial artist.
"Yes, Grandpa." Zhou Hong nodded.
"My heavens, I was already overjoyed that you have martial cultivation talent, and now you've cultivated to the tenth stage. You've truly shocked me." Qiao Wanli couldn't hide the excitement on his face.
"Hehe, Grandpa, you flatter me." Zhou Hong couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh. Fortunately, he hadn't told them the truth, that his current strength wasn't enough to contend with a seventy-fifth-stage martial master. Otherwise, they would have had heart attacks.
"I knew Master Duan wouldn't have misjudged you." Qiao Wanli chuckled.
Zhou Hong frowned and asked with some confusion, "Grandpa, what Master Duan are you talking about?"
"Hehe, Zhou Hong, I won't hide it from you. Back when you were still a live-in son-in-law at the Qin family, Master Duan told me to do whatever it takes to bring you over to be the live-in son-in-law of our Qiao family."
"So that's how it is. I thought you saw that my genes were good back then and wanted to use them to improve your family's quality." Zhou Hong said with a bitter smile.
Qiao Xiaoyu next to him was speechless. Zhou Hong shamelessly claimed his genes were good, and he actually had the nerve to say it.
"But, Grandpa, I don't know this Master Duan you're talking about?" Zhou Hong asked doubtfully.
"It's enough that he knows you."
"Oh, oh, is that Master Duan very powerful?" Zhou Hong asked again.
"Of course. If he can be called a master, he's naturally not ordinary. I heard that his martial arts realm has already reached the sixtieth-odd stage of a martial artist." Qiao Wanli said with reverence.
Zhou Hong was speechless. He thought it was some formidable figure, but it turned out he had only reached the sixtieth-odd stage of a martial artist. It seemed that this Master Duan was no different from Master Wu, whom Zhou Hong had slapped away at Shen Lei's villa.
"Zhou Hong, if there's a chance in the future, I'll take you to meet Master Duan. I believe he must have been watching you secretly and recognized your martial cultivation talent, which is why he urged me to take you as my son-in-law. If I'm not mistaken, Master Duan might have thoughts of taking you as a disciple." Qiao Wanli seemed a little excited. If Zhou Hong could become Master Duan's disciple, then his granddaughter would be set for life, and their Qiao family could establish themselves in Jinzhou.
"Grandpa, you arrange it." Zhou Hong said with a bitter smile, not saying anything else.
"Alright, I'll arrange it as soon as there's an opportunity."
After Qiao Wanli finished speaking, he turned to Qiao Xiaoyu and reprimanded, "Xiaoyu, now you should know what a bargain you've gotten. Zhou Hong has reached the tenth stage of a martial artist, and Master Duan is very likely to take him as a disciple. It's your good fortune from past lives to be Zhou Hong's wife. And you still don't cherish it."
Qiao Xiaoyu pouted, a hint of grievance on her face, thinking to herself that she did cherish it. It was Zhou Hong's flirtatious behavior with other women that had kept her in a bad mood these past few days.
"Grandpa, Xiaoyu and I haven't known each other for long. Don't rush things. Feelings take time to develop." Zhou Hong quickly tried to mediate.
"Alright, alright, the matters of you young people, I, an old man, won't interfere."
"Okay, Grandpa, I have some things to do tonight, so I won't be staying here. I'm going back to Tianhe Residential Area." Zhou Hong quickly proposed to leave, as he needed to go back to refine pills, and Tianhe Residential Area was the most suitable place for him to be alone.
"You're already home, why go live in Tianhe Residential Area by yourself? If you really want to live there, at least have dinner first."
"Alright, I'll eat dinner at home and then go." Zhou Hong said helplessly.
"Good, after dinner, I'll have Xiaoyu accompany you there. Let her sleep with you. It'll be good for you two to sleep there in the future. It's quiet, and no one will disturb you." Qiao Wanli quickly said. Sudan Fiction Network
Zhou Hong was speechless. Qiao Wanli actually wanted Xiaoyu to accompany him to live in Tianhe Residential Area. With the two of them, a man and a woman, alone, wouldn't they end up having children...!
"Grandpa, why are you being so improper? You just said that our younger generation's matters are for us to decide, so why are you making decisions for us again?" Qiao Xiaoyu next to him was blushing furiously. Although she was increasingly attracted to Zhou Hong, having them sleep together so soon was probably difficult for Qiao Xiaoyu to accept; she hadn't had any psychological preparation yet.
"Yes, Grandpa, I've had thoughts about sleeping with Xiaoyu for a long time, but it has to happen naturally!" Zhou Hong chuckled, glancing at Qiao Xiaoyu's chest, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Seeing Zhou Hong staring at a certain part of her, Qiao Xiaoyu glared at him and shyly ran away.
"Hahaha." Qiao Wanli laughed heartily and said to Zhou Hong, "Pluck the flowers that are ripe for plucking, and don't wait until they've withered and you're left with empty branches. Zhou Hong, Xiaoyu is already your fiancée. Although you haven't registered your marriage yet, if you want to do something, don't be polite, just do it."
"Ugh!" Zhou Hong was speechless.
