Chapter 1173: Chapter 1174: Guidance and Compromise
Song Xiaodong smiled and said, “It’s a wonderful feeling, it’s an inspiration, and it’s also a realization. It seems too broad, let
be more precise. Let
ask you, what is the most abundant thing around you?”
“The most abundant around ? Air.” He Lingzhi imdiately answered.
“Yes, air!” Song Xiaodong nodded, then suddenly punched towards He Lingzhi’s face.
He Lingzhi blocked it with her palm, frowned, and said, “What are you doing?”
“I want to ask, when you blocked my punch, what were you relying on? Was it your eyes?”
“Yes, what else would it be if not my eyes?”
Song Xiaodong smiled slightly, then closed his eyes, and said, “Now you attack .”
He Lingzhi frowned and said, “Are you underestimating ?”
Song Xiaodong opened his eyes, rolled them at her, and said, “Silly girl, I’m teaching you a profound Kung Fu, give it a try.” Then he closed his eyes again.
“Teaching
Kung Fu…” He Lingzhi wanted to retort disdainfully, but Song Xiaodong’s performance these past few days showed her that he was indeed stronger than her, so she couldn’t say those words.
Furthermore, she was the kind of person with a strong curiosity, and since Song Xiaodong was willing to teach her, she wouldn’t let such a good opportunity pass.
She threw a punch directly towards Song Xiaodong.
Song Xiaodong easily blocked He Lingzhi’s fist, then opened his eyes and said, “Do you know why I blocked you?”
He Lingzhi imdiately said, “You’re relying on your ears, listening to the sound of the airflow moved by my fist.” At her level, her hearing was quite strong; even with eyes closed, she could locate sounds.
“Then try without sound.” Song Xiaodong said with a smile and closed his eyes again.
This ti, He Lingzhi punched very slowly and without much force, so it wouldn’t cause any sound.
But Song Xiaodong still accurately caught her fist.
“Huh? How did you do that?” He Lingzhi widened her eyes at Song Xiaodong.
Song Xiaodong smiled and said, “What was the first thing I asked you?”
He Lingzhi thought for a mont and replied, “You asked what was most around , and I said air.”
Song Xiaodong nodded and said, “Yes, air. We’re surrounded by air, so every movent you make causes airflow, it changes the air.”
“You’re saying… you can feel the change in the air and then determine my actions?”
“That’s right!” Song Xiaodong nodded.
“How is that possible?” He Lingzhi widened her eyes.
Song Xiaodong extended his hand backward and caught a little butterfly that was flying by. He brought it in front of He Lingzhi, and the butterfly quickly opened its wings and flew away.
He Lingzhi’s eyes widened even more. The butterfly flew behind Song Xiaodong, which wouldn’t create much sound, yet he directly extended his hand and caught it, surely feeling the air change caused by the flapping of the butterfly’s wings.
Song Xiaodong smiled slightly and said, “Practicing Kung Fu is like this, and racing is the sa. I can feel the changes in airflow caused by the car’s movent and then know how to manage the car’s balance.”
“This theory… is too profound… so how do you master this thod?” He Lingzhi’s mouth twitched. Song Xiaodong explained it in an easy-to-understand way, but He Lingzhi realized that truly mastering this thod was absolutely not easy.
Song Xiaodong smiled and said, “I can tell you how I mastered this thod, but I think everyone’s experience is different. Whether this thod suits you, I can’t be sure.”
He Lingzhi looked at Song Xiaodong in surprise and said, “You’re really willing to teach ? You know, I dislike you very much, I’m not willing to marry you. If you really teach , and I don’t marry you in the future, what will you do?”
Song Xiaodong patted He Lingzhi’s shoulder and said, “Yesterday when I saw your excitent and happiness after the race, I regretted coming here to propose. I’ve always thought of my feelings and neglected your thoughts, neglected your feelings, making you endure this forced marriage. Teaching you this is a sort of compensation.”
He Lingzhi’s mouth twitched, and she said, “Really? Are you not fooling ?”
Song Xiaodong smiled slightly again and said, “I treat my woman heart-to-heart, but knowing you’re stubborn, I’m afraid that when you co to my house, there might be family discord. That’s why I wanted to guide you, hoping you beco an obedient woman, but that’s too cruel. You are you, you don’t have to be like others. I apologize for the harm I’ve caused you.”
Watching the sincere regret on Song Xiaodong’s face, He Lingzhi widened her eyes, shook her head, and after a while said, “Then, can you call off the engagent?”
“Lingzhi, I’m sorry, it’s really difficult for
to do that.”
“Isn’t that nonsense?” He Lingzhi gave Song Xiaodong a big eye-roll.
Song Xiaodong smiled slightly and said, “But what I think now is to genuinely make you like , truly love , willingly change for , willingly get along with your sisters.”
“Pfft, dream on. I won’t ever fall in love with you, and I’d not get along well with them,” thinking of the three won sharing the bed with Song Xiaodong made He Lingzhi shiver.
Song Xiaodong smiled slightly and said, “I know this will require a process, so I thought of a compromise.”
“What kind of compromise?” He Lingzhi asked curiously.
“We can get engaged first, giving us an official status, but we won’t rush to marry. This gives us a buffer period. I won’t force you through my door until one day you genuinely accept
and are willing to enter our ho. Then I’ll marry you.”
“Really? You’re not lying to ?” He Lingzhi asked in surprise.
Song Xiaodong smiled slightly and said, “Of course it’s true. I never lie to my woman.”
“Pfft, I’m not your woman yet. Don’t take advantage of ,” He Lingzhi glared at Song Xiaodong, then touched her chin and said, “But your thod isn’t bad.”
Song Xiaodong said, “If you don’t have any objections, I’ll ntion it to your grandfather today.”
He Lingzhi looked at Song Xiaodong again, not seeing any insincerity in his expression. She bit her lip and said, “Alright then, let’s do it this way.” She actually knew very well, she had no power to oppose this marriage, and the current situation was already the biggest compromise Song Xiaodong could make.
