Girl, there's something wrong with you

In the afternoon, fighting class.

Cheng Jinyang suddenly punched Li Qingwan in the chest.

She quickly took a half step back to relieve herself, her body swaying a few times. The pain brought her out of her thoughts and smiled softly.

"You seem to have something on your mind." Cheng Jinyang stopped and said, "Otherwise, you wouldn't have been hit so easily by me."

"You have seen this." Li Qingwan did not deny it and said with a smile, "Well, I was wondering whether to tell my dad."

"Do you want to tell him that you have been promoted to the seventh level?" Cheng Jinyang understood immediately.

It means nothing if you don't return wealth and honor to your hometown, just like walking in brocade clothes at night. What's more, Teacher Li's family experience is quite special. She and her father have paid too much in order to upgrade.

Now that Li Qingwan has been promoted to seventh rank but has to hide it from his father, he naturally feels a little uncomfortable.

The other girls kept it secret from their families because their parents were either clan leaders or clan elders. Knowing about this matter, they would definitely have other ideas, such as whether it could be extended to the entire clan.

Therefore, they cannot easily tell their families until they have sufficient status in the clan.

However, Li Qingwan's father was an ordinary member of the Li family in Longxi, and the Li family in Longxi did not have the ideological stamp of "family interests first". If he were asked to choose between "the interests of his daughter" and "the interests of the family", he would most likely choose the former.

Thinking of this, Cheng Jinyang nodded and said:

"Qingwan, if you want to tell your father, that's fine, but you have to make sure that he can't tell anyone, including other members of your family."

"Of course." Li Qingwan was a little surprised and said happily, "Well, my father is not a person who likes to show off. And for some reasons, my relatives and friends have also formed a deep-rooted impression of my poor talent. I guess not These will be noticed.”

Of course Cheng Jinyang knew what she meant. Because of the almost masochistic training that the father and daughter had in the past, as well as their visits to the pedigree identification center every once in a while, they have probably become quite a laughing stock in the clan... It's a bit sad to talk about it this way.

Teacher Li is so pitiful! Fortunately, he met me, and finally the clouds cleared and the moon became clear.

The two sparred again for half an hour, and Li Qingwan finally made up his mind.

I have to go back and tell my father.

Cheng Jinyang accompanied her and arranged a special car from the Cheng clan.

If it were any other girl, he might have to avoid suspicion. After all, if someone sees a fellow traveler in the clan area, there may be a slight risk of being gossiped about.

However, because of her poor talent, Li Qingwan is basically a transparent person in the clan, and no one knows Cheng Jinyang here.

The two of them walked all the way from the gate of the clan, and no one noticed them at all.

Li Qingwan's home is on the edge of the Li family in Longxi, on the edge of the Yangtze River.

Among the Li family in Longxi, there is no such thing as a river-view house. The reason why tribesmen with lower potential are assigned to the riverside is because the riverside is the farthest from the entrance of the tribe, and they have to walk for a long time every time they go out.

This is a completely different concept from Miss Wang's choice to live on the edge of the clan for the sake of purity.

However, due to the "vast land and sparsely populated areas" on the edge of the clan area, most of them are single-family buildings with additional courtyards. A small field was opened right in front of Teacher Li's house, and some plants that looked like medicinal herbs were planted in it.

"Wait a minute." Seeing that she was about to take him directly inside, Cheng Jinyang asked quickly, "Isn't it good for me to go in like this to see your dad?"

"What does it matter?" Li Qingwan said with a smile, "I'll see you sooner or later."

What does it mean? What does "see you sooner or later" mean? Before Cheng Jinyang could figure it out, he was dragged in by Li Qingwan.

Teacher Li is so strong, I can't resist at all.

The furnishings in the room are quite simple. Perhaps because it is located on the riverside, the humidity is very high, and the lower edge of the wallpaper is somewhat moldy. Li Qingwan's father, Li Fenghe, was lying lazily on the sofa, wearing only a pair of shorts. Compared with what Cheng Jinyang saw in her dream, this image had obviously gained weight, and her belly was also a whole lot bigger.

"Come back?" He cast his gaze over.

"Well, dad." Li Qingwan stepped aside and introduced, "This is Cheng Jinyang."

So Li Fenghe sat up. He had heard of this name and knew that it was the patriarch of the Cheng family in the divine capital. The Li family in Longxi had paid extra attention to this person before for some unknown reason, and specifically told Li Qingwan to go over and befriend him... Tsk, I didn't expect him to be so young. He looks to be the same age as my daughter.

He casually took the shirt and pants next to the sofa and put them on, then stood up without any embarrassment, showing the gentle smile unique to the elders:

"Jinyang, right? I am Qingwan's father."

"Hello, uncle." Cheng Jinyang saluted quickly.

"Just call me uncle." Li Fenghe waved his hand.

The etiquette in the aristocratic family is that if you don't know the age of the father and the other party, you often look at the family level. The other party is from a third-grade family, and my own is from a fifth-grade family, so I will address him as "Uncle". As for uncle, the emphasis is on the word "father" at the end, which naturally has additional extended meanings, and anyone who knows it will understand.

So Li Qingwan felt a little shy and explained to his father:

"Dad, Jinyang and I are just ordinary friends now."

"Is that so?" Li Fenghe immediately pretended to smile and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Anyway, you can't say what's going to happen in the future."

Cheng Jinyang:………………

Teacher Li hasn't said anything yet. How can you, the master, just give up your daughter for nothing at the speed of light? But since he is called "uncle", he must not be married into a wife, and he still has some discernment.

Li Qingwan winked at him secretly, indicating that he didn't need to take it seriously, and then said with a smile:

"Dad, you stay at home for so many days and don't go to the martial arts gym. My second uncle told me when I met you on the road recently that you must have gained weight, which is not good for your health."

"Humph!" Li Fenghe snorted displeasedly, "I'm almost 50 years old, why do I still go to a martial arts gym?"

At the age of 50, the blood concentration peak has passed, and it will inevitably decline slowly. What Li Fenghe said is correct. However, although his voice was high-pitched, it was difficult to hide the desolate and dejected meaning in it. Li Qingwan bit his lower lip slightly and said after a long while:

"Just think of it as accompanying me. How about I practice a few moves with you?"

"You?" Li Fenghe looked at his daughter, then at Cheng Jinyang next to him, and sneered, "No matter how bad your dad is, I am still at level 6, and you are only at level 9. How do you want to spar with me? Use me as your boyfriend. Making fun of you in front of me, or what?"

Cheng Jinyang was embarrassed when he heard this, while Li Qingwan was greatly embarrassed and said:

"No, I have improved a little recently, so I wanted to let you see it."

Li Fenghe was stunned for a moment before he understood what his daughter meant: She should have broken through from the ninth level to the eighth level.

A bloodline talent with a guaranteed minimum of fifth grade can basically break through to eighth grade before the age of 20; if it is a guaranteed minimum of fourth grade, one can break through to seventh grade before the age of 20.

Other people's children at her age are basically above the eighth grade or even below the seventh grade. For Li Qingwan, "entering the eighth rank" was more of a silent irony than a surprise for promotion. It's no wonder that she beat around the bush and didn't want to say it clearly.

Thinking of this, Li Fenghe felt a little guilty and decided to let Cheng Jinyang see the excellence of his daughter when he went to the martial arts gym. He nodded slowly and agreed.
