Chapter 156 - A Call Desiring Beauty

Thus, Luo Yang continued to hold Hong Jiaxin closely, their gazes locked.

Her clear eyes seemed to say, “I don’t believe you can hold me like this forever!”

Compared to Luo Yang, her martial techniques were significantly inferior.

She admired him in her heart, but her mouth would never admit it.

Whenever she would playfully wrestle with him, she hoped to defeat him once to prove her martial arts were not inferior to his.

Each time, she ended up disappointed.

Now, as they looked at each other, she saw a mischievous smile in his unruly eyes, making her both annoyed and helpless.

As his disciple, she was unwilling to accept it.

At least she hadn’t fully accepted him as her master in her heart.

She admired him, but she had great ambitions and secretly vowed that, as long as she was willing to train hard, she would one day surpass him.

With such a positive and striving will, she found it difficult to publicly acknowledge Luo Yang as her master in a short time.

She just wanted to find an opportunity to prove that he wasn’t qualified to be her master.

Being held by him, her pretty face was flushed, partly from the earlier struggle and partly from the heat of his body as she sat on his lap, which made her feel quite embarrassed, yet she was unable to extricate herself.

Sitting on his lap made him uncomfortable too, and both had to divert a lot of attention to their lower bodies.

Her warmth fascinated him, his heat made her bashful.

Every time her round hips shifted slightly, it always excited him.

The two were close together, yet they were silent.

Hong Jiaxin occasionally lifted her eyelids to glance at Luo Yang, and upon seeing him look back, she quickly averted her gaze, her cheeks becoming even more flushed.

Her lips, soft and lustrous, pursed into a slightly petulant curve, the hint of a smile at the corners of her mouth softening the subtle resentment in her eyes.

The living room was silent, with the occasional sound of passersby or vehicles outside the house.

Time seemed to halt, their movements freezing.

A whiff of cool fragrance gently surged over, and with a gentle breath, if one savored it, the warmth would envelop the body instantly, like being in a wonderful dream—peaceful and comfortable, leisurely and lingering.

The heat within their bodies remained high, dehydration leaving the lips slightly dry.

As his gaze swept back and forth between Hong Jiaxin’s pretty face and chest, peering at her body, Luo Yang couldn’t help but lick his lips, slightly parting them, as he wanted to inquire about the source of a young woman’s fragrance once again.

Seeing him move his mouth a few millimeters closer, Hong Jiaxin chided with a smile, “If you dare to kiss me, I’ll bite you!”

At that moment, her arms and body were tightly held by him, rendering her immobile.

Luo Yang laughed, “Squad leader, you misunderstand.

I wasn’t trying to kiss you.

Your skin is getting more alluring.”

As he said this, he kept his eyes intently on the delicate slope below her neck, smiling all the while.

Hong Jiaxin couldn’t move her arms freely, but her forearms and fingers could still maneuver.

Annoyed by his gleaming gaze, she reached out to pinch his ribs.

“Squad leader, your pinching skill is truly unparalleled in the world!” Luo Yang grimaced.

She lifted the corners of her mouth, ready to continue twisting him when his mobile phone rang.

She paused.

The caller ID showed an unfamiliar number.

Thinking it was a wrong call at first, she realized it was intentional after he answered and she heard the caller’s voice.

It was Mr.

Shen, the man Luo Yang had beaten up.

Wanting to hear the conversation, Luo Yang turned on the speakerphone, and they heard Mr.

Shen say, “Is this Mr.

Luo?”

Luo Yang responded coldly, “What do you want?”

Having recognized each other’s voices, they confirmed their identities.

“You boasted that you would challenge the ninjas, and after much consideration, they’ve decided to face you openly and see your skills,” Mr.

Shen said.

At that time, in the hotel’s private room, Luo Yang indeed made those remarks, but he hadn’t expected them to come looking for trouble so quickly.

“I will accompany them to the end,” Luo Yang said calmly.

“Good.

To ensure a public and formal competition, they will organize a martial arts tournament in Honghai County under the guise of a cultural exchange and offer a substantial prize money.

You simply need to sign up.

They said if you dare to underestimate ninjas, they will make you pay,” Mr.

Shen said.

“When will it be?” Luo Yang asked.

“Within these few days, I suppose.

Organizing such an event requires some procedures.

I’ll call you when registration opens.

They’ve asked me to remind you repeatedly that you must participate.

They hope not to scare you off,” Mr.

Shen answered.

Ever since he mastered Shadow Fist, Luo Yang hadn’t found a worthy opponent and felt lonely.

He couldn’t wait to fight these ninjas.

“Let them come today!

There’s no need for so many formalities,” Luo Yang said.

“Mr.

Luo, you said you wanted an open contest with them, so they’re following your request.

They feel winning against you in private is meaningless.

They want to teach you a lesson,” Mr.

Shen said.

Luo Yang laughed upon hearing this.

Anyone who had claimed they would teach him a lesson ended up beneath his feet.

“Just a few Little Japanese, and they want to teach me a lesson?

You’d better tell them not to send those useless guys to compete against me,” Luo Yang said with a cold laugh.

“Mr.

Luo, don’t worry about that.

You just need to show up and fight,” Mr.

Shen paused before adding, “They also have another condition.”

“What condition?” Luo Yang said displeased.

“If you lose the match, they will spare your life.

But you must hand over that Miss Hong, they want to have a word with her,” Mr.

Shen said.

Hong Jiaxin was sitting on Luo Yang’s lap, and upon hearing this, her eyebrows fiercely knitted together.

“You jerk!

Next time I see you, I’ll beat you until you beg for mercy!” she said angrily, her body trembling slightly.

Mr.

Shen, on the other end of the phone, didn’t dare retort.

Luo Yang said coldly, “Mr.

Shen, listen well.

If you dare to talk like that again, I’ll turn Honghai County upside down to find you!”

There was a trembling voice from Mr.

Shen, “Mr.

Luo, I’m just passing on their message to you.

I have no ill intentions towards Miss Hong.

Whether you hand over Miss Hong is up to you.”

With a snort, Luo Yang said firmly, “Tell them my words, to keep their contest but leave Miss Hong out of this!”

After ending the call, Hong Jiaxin’s face was full of anger.

Luo Yang gently stroked her soft back, comforting her, “Class monitor, I’m here.

Don’t worry.”

Hong Jiaxin speculated, “They want to extract information about Mu Tan from me.”

What secret Mu Tan held, Luo Yang was also very interested.

“Class monitor, I will protect you.

If they want to touch you, they’ll have to get past me first.

As long as I’m standing, they won’t be able to touch a hair on your head,” Luo Yang said solemnly.

“They are targeting both of us this time, specifically wanting a contest with you.

Be careful,” Hong Jiaxin said with concern.

“Let them come.

I will hit them so hard that they’ll be carried back on stretchers,” Luo Yang’s tone shifted aggressively, “By the way, class monitor, has your dad ever mentioned anything about Mu Tan to you?

Of course, you don’t have to tell me.

I’m just asking casually.”
