Chapter 25 Agree to Move

1877 Words
The next day, Lu Yao got up to practice Tuiyun Hand before dawn. Ordinary cultivators would spend most of their time on cultivation. But Lu Yao was different. He could only cultivate at dawn and dusk because he had to spend almost all of the rest of the time at school. Since he had made great progress in his studies, he could be admitted to Xijing University and fulfill his promise to Huang Ruoyun even if he didn't go to school. However, he couldn't tell Lu Yiqian about it in case Lu Yiqian worried about him. Therefore, Lu Yao still focused on his studies every day. After practicing seven or eight times, he walked to the old stone roller. Suddenly, he performed Tuiyun Hand with Knock Step. "Boom!" The stone roller moved with a dull thud. As Lu Yao had predicted when he was in the martial arts school, the stone roller moved at least four or five centimeters further than before. "It seems that I really have to learn some basic martial arts techniques in the future." Lu Yao said to himself. As the first move of Mixed Spirit King Kong Skills, Tuiyun Hand was perfect for forging physical abilities during Body Refining Phase. In the past few months, Lu Yao's body and strength had changed dramatically. However, Lu Yao didn't think it was suitable for fighting against an enemy. Tuiyun Hand was such a powerful technique that it could either m**m or kill an ordinary man. Even if the enemy could survive after receiving one or two blows, Lu Yao didn't want to perform Tuiyun Hand all the time. It was so stupid! After Lu Yao practiced a few times, it was almost time for school. He entered the room to wash up. After that, he closed the gate and walked to school. People seldom talked about the previous exam in school. Chu Minghui also came to school today. However, he told Mr. Yang, the class teacher, that he didn't want to be the commissary in charge of studies any longer. When Lu Yao entered the classroom, Chu Minghui was reading a book. He didn't even look up for a moment. He even paid no attention to whatever Ma Xiaolin and others had said to him but sat there, studying hard. If things hadn't got out of hand, many people would not have believed that Chu Minghui, an aggressive person, would be like this. However, Lu Yao didn't care about these things. Although he won the bet, he didn't intend to take revenge on Chu Minghui. In fact, he was very satisfied with the result. Lu Yao came to his seat and said hello to Lin Jiayi. And then he devoted himself to his studies. It was never too old to learn. Because Lu Yao had a strong memory, the coming college entrance examination would be easy for him. However, Shina boasted a long history and splendid culture. There were still many things that Lu Yao needed to learn. Lu Yao had also thought about it before. Although his master, Li Jiang, could teach him, he still needed to accumulate more knowledge about pharmacology and history. The last class in the morning was an English class. Liu Taibin, the English teacher, didn't find fault with Lu Yao. So Lu Yao was happy and relaxed the whole morning. After school, Lu Yao and Han Dong were going to the nearby snack street to have something to eat. When they came to the school gate, Lu Yao saw Wang Ping's Aodi A6 parked outside the gate. Perhaps Wang Ping also saw Lu Yao. He rolled down the window and waved to Lu Yao. Lu Yao said goodbye to Han Dong and walked to the car. "Brother Wang, why did you come here?" Lu Yao sat in the passenger seat and asked. "It's no big deal. I was just passing by. And I want to invite you for lunch. Would you do me the honor of being my guest?" Wang Ping said jokingly. "You must be kidding," Lu Yao said, "Yesterday you gave my godfather such valuable gifts. I haven't had the opportunity to repay you. It's my treat today. Brother Wang, what would you like to eat?" "Oh, you really shouldn't have. We are friends, right? Lu Yao, just don't forget me when you make the mark in the future. Let me treat you today!" Wang Ping knew Lu Yao's family background after going to his house, so he insisted on paying the bill. Hearing Wang Ping's words, Lu Yao could do nothing but agree. ... ... Wang Ping knew that Lu Yao lived a frugal life. So he just drove to a Sichuan restaurant named Shu Style, which was near the school. He ordered shredded potatoes, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and several other homey dishes. There were many customers in the restaurant during the peak hours. Wang Ping and Lu Yao sat in a small private room that could only accommodate two people, waiting for the waiter to serve the dishes. "Lu Yao, actually, I came here just because I want to ask you what you think about my suggestion." After sitting down, Wang Ping handed Lu Yao a cup of tea and asked. "Brother Wang, I..." "Lu Yao, you don't have to give me an answer right away. Let me tell you what happened after you left yesterday before you make your decision, OK?" Wang Ping asked. "OK!" "After I left your house, I told my boss, Mr. Jin, about your situation. He was very satisfied after hearing what I said. This morning, he asked the director of the martial arts school to give me the key to the apartment in Chaoyang Garden." Wang Ping said, taking out two keys tied together with a key chain from his pocket and putting them on the table. "So, Lu Yao, could you do me the favor to move to the apartment with your godfather?" Wang Ping said expectantly. "Brother Wang, as you know, my godfather is not young. I'm afraid he is long in the tooth for such a job!" Lu Yao explained. "You don't need to worry about it. Mr. Jin told me that Mr. Lu would be only responsible for cleaning up the martial arts school," Wang Ping said immediately. "Well, OK, I'll tell my godfather when I return home." Lu Yao also knew that this was a very good opportunity for him and his godfather. The reason why he refused before was that he really didn't know how to repay Wang Ping. Because Wang Ping was insistent, Lu Yao had no choice but to agree. Wang Ping signed with relief when Lu Yao changed his mind. About 20 minutes later, the waiter finally served all the dishes. Wang Ping was in a good mood because Lu Yao agreed to move. Lu Yao was also in a good mood when he thought that his godfather would never have to go to the labor market to look for odd jobs at three or four o'clock in the morning. The good mood sharpened their appetites. Besides, the food in this restaurant was excellent and it was no worse than that of five-star hotels. So they ate up all the dishes in a short time. It was almost time to return to school after they finished a good meal. Lu Yao intended to walk back because the restaurant was very close to the school. Wang Ping didn't insist on driving Lu Yao to school. Before getting in the car, he said to Lu Yao, "Just let me know when you move. I have a car. It will be more convenient!" "OK, I will," Lu Yao said, "Brother Wang, drive carefully!" Usually, high school seniors had free periods in the afternoon because minor subjects such as PE and Art were canceled. So Lu Yao spent all his time reading books instead of doing exercises. Over the past few days, Lu Yao had made up all the lessons he had missed. And he believed that he would do better in the next exam. ... ... For once, Aunt Wang, Lu Yao's neighbor, came back early. She stood at the door, looking in the direction of the mouth of the alley. When Lu Yao came, she immediately ran forward and said, "Lu Yao, you're back!" "Hello, Aunt Wang, how come you came back so early today?" Lu Yao asked politely. "Oh, I've been waiting for you here!" Aunt Wang said after sighing heavily. "Wait for me?" Lu Yao was surprised. Although they were neighbors, Aunt Wang hadn't come to their house again especially after Lu Yao defeated Master Qian and other hooligans. But she was politer to Lu Yao when she met him. Lu Yao wondered why she suddenly waited for him to come back. "Oh, it is my son who will be expelled from school. I had no choice but to find the school leaders. I kept begging them to give my son one more chance. Finally, Director Li told me that they had to expel my son from school unless a good student would be willing to vouch for him. So..." Aunt Wang said, sighing. Hearing this, Lu Yao finally understood that Aunt Wang wanted him to vouch for her son. Aunt Wang's son was Ma Jingxue. Lu Yao had met him before. Ma Jingxue often wore fancy clothes and had a Mohawk with lots of hair waxes. He even had his ears pierced a lot of times. In Han Dong's words, judging from his appearance, Ma Jingxue was not a good person. Ma Jingxue regularly consorted with gangsters who had dropped out of school. And he was a menace to people who lived in the slum area because he always participated in fights and stole things. At the beginning of the year, he was expelled from the school. After his family used their connections to their full advantage and sent a lot of gifts, he finally joined a class that charged sky-high tuition fees. Somehow he was going to be expelled again. Aunt Wang had no choice but to ask Lu Yao to intercede with the school authorities on behalf of her son. And the reason why she found Lu Yao was that Lu Yao came third in the provincial placement exam for high school seniors in Xinlu Province. "Aunt Wang, it's not that I don't want to help you, but there is an unwritten rule of the school. The voucher must live near to the vouchee's house so that the vouchee can be supervised frequently. But I'm going to move soon. So I'm afraid that I can't vouch for your son!" Lu Yao said calmly. In fact, although there was such a rule in the school, it was not stringently enforced. It just gave Lu Yao an excuse to say no. Even if Lu Yao wouldn't move, he didn't want to vouch for Ma Jingxue. It was not that he didn't want to help Aunt Wang, but he really hated those parasites who frittered away their parents' hard-earned cash. And Ma Jingxue was one of the parasites Lu Yao hated most. Hearing Lu Yao's words, Aunt Wang intended to say something. But Lu Yao had gone far.
