Chapter 173: No Talk of Feelings, Only Talk of Needs
"Then he called Hu Zi and the others and said that from now on he would personally teach them martial arts."
"Only by practicing martial arts well can I better protect you."
"The general was afraid that the children's martial arts training would disturb your rest, so he took them out to practice."
While Xiaotao was speaking, Lu Ziqian came back panting with a group of boys.
As soon as Hu Zi, Shi Tou and others entered the yard, they started wailing and said that they would never practice martial arts again, even if they died.
Even the Wei sisters who had practiced martial arts for many years were bent over and panting, their legs trembling with exhaustion.
Su Yujiao frowned: "Just go back when you're well. Why are you bothering them?"
Lu Ziqian smiled slightly, his whole body refreshed, and he spoke without blushing or beating his heart: "Practicing martial arts is always tiring."
"Today is the first day, you'll just have to get used to it."
Today he was wearing thin clothes, with a white gauze wrapped around his head. He stood in front of her clean and refreshed, as if he didn't sweat.
He smiled at her, gazing at her with unspeakably gentle eyes. The color in his eyes gradually changed from indifferent to deep, rolling out strange and strong emotions.
Su Yujiao stared at his perfect and dazzling facial features, and couldn't help but sigh at the Creator's preference for him, which really gave him a good appearance that could turn everyone upside down.
Hu Zi's complaint interrupted the staring between the two: "Madam, the general lied. He didn't teach us martial arts. He just made us run and run until our lungs almost exploded."
The Wei sisters also nodded. They had never run such a long distance in their lives.
Lu Ziqian touched his nose and explained to her, "Running is similar to horse stance. Only when you have a solid foundation can you practice martial arts well."
"Master, it has indeed been delivered."
At this time, Mo Shu limped into the yard pushing a cart of meat, vegetables and eggs.
"Wow, that's a lot of meat! I've never seen so much meat in my life."
“And there are plenty of eggs.”
The children cheered together.
Although they usually had good food, these half-grown children cheered excitedly when they saw the mountains of meat and eggs for the first time.
"Eat enough meat and eggs to keep your body strong."
"Eat like this from now on, and practice well after eating."
The children cheered happily: "The general is mighty, the general is mighty."
Su Yujiao watched him trying to win people's hearts and gave him a fierce look.
"Mo Shu, what's wrong with your leg?"
"Is it serious?"
At this time, Mo Hua came in again, pushing a cart of rice and grain, and said, "He failed to protect the young lady and should have died as an apology, but the master was merciful and spared his life."
Su Yujiao frowned. She really didn't like the idea of deciding other people's fate so casually.
Seeing that Su Yujiao was about to vent her anger on her master, Mo Shu immediately knelt down and explained, "It has nothing to do with my master. My master has been looking for you these past few days and has no time to punish me."
"It was the subordinate who punished himself."
"Hurry up and get up! You've crippled yourself! How are you going to help your master in the future?"
Mo Shu answered honestly, "I'm not lame. I have a back injury, and walking pulls on the injury, so I appear to be limping."
"It will be fine in a few days."
Su Yujiao looked at the blood oozing from his back. The injury was so severe, it would be strange if he could heal in a few days.
"Just wait, I'll get you some medicine."
Su Yujiao entered the room. It was her modern room, which was her living space.
I took some medicine for internal and external use, and this two-pronged approach will help me get better faster.
"Thank you, madam."
Su Yujiao corrected her, "Don't call me that. It's not good for my reputation. Call me the County Lady from now on."
Mo Shu glanced at Lu Ziqian, and seeing him nod slightly, he called her "County Lady".
While the cook was cooking, Su Yujiao asked Lu Ziqian, "When are you planning to leave?"
"You don't have to do this useless work. I finally divorced you, and I won't remarry you easily."
"I'm not leaving, and I'm not leaving just to get you to remarry me. I just want to stay and protect you."
"I won't let it happen again."
Su Yujiao remained calm: "I don't need your protection, there are plenty of people who can protect me."
"I had a showdown with Nan Sheng yesterday. He already knew that I was the true Saint of Southern Xinjiang, and he had put Chen Yunniang under house arrest."
"He will naturally protect me."
"Besides, you should know that I don't need anyone's protection."
Lu Ziqian stared at her confident look, and thought of how she was omnipotent when she was a child. He felt a sense of loss in his heart. She had great magical powers and so many magic weapons to protect herself, so she really didn't need his protection.
A trace of sadness flashed across the man's eyes. He no longer had any use at all.
"The Wei sisters' martial arts skills are average. They can't teach those kids well."
"It doesn't matter. As long as they can protect themselves, it's fine. Not everyone needs to be a master."
Seeing her attitude of keeping people at a distance, the man's handsome face showed a hint of bitterness: "I can help with the housework."
"unnecessary."
"Then I can make money and support the children in the orphanage."
"I can support them, you don't have to."
She rejected all of Lu Ziqian's suggestions.
She thought he would give up and leave tactfully, but she didn't expect him to suddenly lean back in his chair and look her up and down with a look that seemed to have ill intentions.
"Is there really no place where I'm needed?"
His voice was hazy, with a lazy and playful tone.
The man's naked and hot gaze made her feel uncomfortable: "No."
She stood up to leave, but he grabbed her and with a little force, she fell onto his lap.
Su Yujiao struggled to get up, but he held her tightly.
"Jiaojiao, everyone has needs, regardless of gender."
"You're going to need me for that kind of thing."
"I know you don't want to have a relationship with me, but I'm always available when you need me."
"When you are willing to make love with me, it feels good every time, doesn't it?"
The man discussed this matter seriously, downplaying it, speaking in a serious tone, not frivolous or dandy, but every word made her blush, feel shy and ambiguous.
Su Yujiao felt that he was really shameless, and could say anything without blushing or beating his heart.
If this tactic of self-torture doesn't work, have you tried seduction instead?
He placed his chin in the crook of her neck, and she could smell the faint scent of soapberry on the man, which was refreshing and not unpleasant.
"Jiaojiao, don't push me away. Let me make it up to you, okay?"
"You said it, that grown men and women can sometimes talk about needs instead of feelings."
As Lu Ziqian spoke, he pecked the woman's white and translucent earlobe lightly. Seeing that she dodged, he stopped and no longer forced her.
But she could still smell the strong masculine scent on the man, and the skin on her cheeks couldn't help but feel hot.
Seeing that she was distracted for a moment, Lu Ziqian gently hugged her. Just holding her quietly was enough.
By the time Su Yujiao reacted, the hot breath sprayed on her sensitive neck, and her breathing was steady and long.
