Chapter 109: Kung Fu
In addition to the shock that had taken over many netizens at Xiang Yi’s ability to promote products, several brands began paying attention to Xiang Yi too...
Overnight, several netizens woke up to surf the internet like foxes in a melon field.
The next day.
The sun rose in the east, casting a faint morning light.
Refreshed by the happy events of late, Li Jianyu had gotten up early, ready to go on a morning jog.
Yesterday, the broadcast numbers for “Two Under One Roof” had reached #1 in the variety show category. Even if the fans of the various guests on “Heartbeat” continued to praise it, it was still difficult to prevent the decline.
The seniors at Muyao TV had also contacted him a while back hoping he would return.
Li Jianyu had abruptly refused their offer.
“The peach leaves were pointy, and willow leaves covered the sky...” As he hummed, Li Jianyu inadvertently ran into Xiang Yi when he made it to the garden.
The girl was dressed in a pink and white sporty outfit, looking as if she’d walked out of a painting in her natural makeup. Only...
She was practicing Tai Chi??
Li Jianyu scratched his head as several questions emerged inside his mind.
He couldn’t help but feel that mentor Xiang Yi... did not have the lifestyle habits of someone her age...
The girl’s actions were soft and casual, and there was an inexplicably light rhythm between her gestures. Li Jianyu couldn’t help but be unconsciously mesmerized by her movements.
“Good morning, Director Li.” Xiang Yi greeted him.
“Morning, mentor Xiang Yi.” Li Jianyu couldn’t help but gossip. “Are you* practicing Kung Fu?”
Xiang Yi smiled. “Just exercising to stay fit, is all.”
Li Jianyu let out a dragged out “Oh”; it made sense. How could a young girl know Kung Fu... it must have been just a hobby.
He did some stretches to loosen his muscles then ran around the manor. When he came back, he habitually took another look around to find...
She was practicing sword art??
Li Jianyu almost fell face first, his pupils widening in alarm.
The fair skinned and delicate girl was holding a simple longsword. Her swordsmanship had characteristics and form similar to Tai Chi, while her posture remained calm and comfortable, with a graceful style and seemed to emphasize the effortlessness of her actions.
She quivered her wrists, turning the sword to draw a flower in the air, its blade glinting coldly and producing a buzzing sound.
Li Jianyu: ...!!
‘F*ck! If this isn’t Kung Fu, then what is?!’
‘Mentor Xiang Yi, is this what you f*cking call exercising to keep fit?!!’
‘With all due respect, if you come running at me with that sword, I will disappear!’
Xiang Yi retracted the sword then inhaled and exhaled. Realizing Li Jianyu had stopped running and was staring at her in a sluggish daze, she tilted her head and asked, “Director Li, I’m going to make breakfast now. Anything you want to eat?”
Li Jianyu shuddered and stepped back. “Mentor Xiang Yi, you are too kind...” He shivered, regretting his words right on the spot. “No, no. Master Xiang Yi, how could I trouble you for such a small thing like breakfast! I’ll do it, I’ll... call takeout! I’ll treat everyone to breakfast!”
Xiang Yi: “...The formal ‘you’? Master? Director Li, are you okay?”
“Ahha, who are you calling Director Li! Just call me Xiao Li, that’s all!!!”
Xiang Yi’s tiny milky face was completely blank.
She was... fascinated.
*Translator’s Note: Li Jianyu uses the formal ‘you’ in this sentence.
