Chapter 123 The one who got there first
After saying that, Chen Baolin shook his arm and left the main hall angrily, leaving Pili kneeling here alone.
Chen Sheng was anxious and distressed: "Cancan, you know your master. If you don't explain this clearly, you will not only have to kneel here all the time, but he will not accept the money."
Pili looked at the money on the tea table. She had earned it from "underground fighting" in the past six months. When she was a newcomer, it only cost two yuan a game. Later, as her winning rate increased and she became famous, it increased to now. Twenty yuan a game.
After more than thirty games in total, she earned nearly two hundred yuan!
This is definitely not a small amount of money for ordinary people, but my wife is now lying in the intensive care unit, burning money every day until she waits for a kidney.
So she couldn't stop and didn't dare to stop.
If the master knew that he was making money by "underground fighting", he would definitely not agree.
So Pili lowered his head and did not intend to explain more. She could bear the punishment of kneeling, and it was not like she had never knelt before.
Seeing her stubborn temper coming back, Chen Sheng sighed helplessly: "No matter where you got your money from or how you earned it, don't go there again. This yard has been handed over to you. Once you have an agent, once a buyer is found, the money problem will be solved.”
Pili suddenly raised his head after hearing what his senior brother said: "Selling the yard? This is the Chen family's ancestral home, how can it be sold? Besides, what will happen if the yard is sold to the martial arts gym?"
"Just do what you have to do, and leave the rest alone."
Shen Ci and Gu Lianxing could no longer hear the following words, but they could hear them clearly.
"Is this the old society? Why are there still feudal dross like kneeling as punishment?" Gu Lianxing said angrily.
Naturally, Shen Ci didn't understand either, but they were outsiders after all, and it sounded like Pili's fight to make money was very serious, otherwise she wouldn't have kept silent about it.
After thinking about it, I seem to understand a little bit. Most of the families who inherit Chinese martial arts should be more traditional and have strong character. Naturally, they cannot accept making money from such gambling fighting games.
If there is secret manipulation, then this matter is actually illegal, so Pili dare not say anything.
There was a knock on the door of the room. Gu Lianxing walked up and opened the door. It was Chen Sheng.
"Perak, she may not go back to school today." Chen Sheng said.
Gu Lianxing wanted to speak for Pili but was stopped by Shen Ci. She nodded at Chen Sheng: "Then we will go back later."
Chen Sheng twitched his lips with an apologetic look, knowing in his heart that his father's loud voice would not escape the ears of others, and they must have heard what just happened.
But not saying too much is also a sign of respect.
"I want to beg for mercy for Pili." As soon as Chen Sheng left, Gu Lianxing couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.
Shen Ci looked at her and sighed helplessly: "We are not qualified to talk about this kind of thing. If we can ask for mercy, senior brother will definitely speak for Pili before us."
"Then let Pili keep kneeling there?"
"It is a national law and a family rule. Penalty to kneel is the family rule of Baolin Martial Arts School. Can't you see? And the head of the gym, Chen, is more worried about Pili than any of us. The reason why he does this is for Pili's good. After all, it is not safe to make money by betting on fighting games." If the incident comes to light one day, even if Pili does not crack down on match-fixing, it will be related to her participation in betting, which is illegal. "
Shen Ci said, having already put on his shoes: "So, it's not too late for Pili to stop now."
After listening to Shen Ci's words, Gu Lianxing understood some of the truth belatedly. Apart from other things, illegal things must not be done. What if something really happened?
When the two of them left, they passed by the main hall. Pili was kneeling in the hall with his back to them. He seemed to hear footsteps, and Pili turned his head to look.
Gu Lianxing looked distressed and pointed at the cushions on the chair and then at his knees, telling Pili not to be stubborn and to use a cushion to cushion him for comfort.
Pili just smiled and shook his head to indicate that he was fine, and then mouthed the words "You go back first, don't worry about me."
Judging from her reaction, it was clear that she was used to being punished by kneeling. Shen Ci nodded with relief, and then left the Baolin Martial Arts School with Gu Lianxing.
In the evening, Shao Yu received the news from Shen Ci and ran downstairs to wait for her in the women's dormitory. "Qu Yang has been training these days. Next week is the National College League." Shao Yu explained to Shen Ci why Qu Yang didn't come.
Shen Ci didn't mind, as long as the thank you gift could be sent to Qu Yang.
She handed the shoes she was carrying to Shao Yu: "Then please hand it over to him for me."
Just by looking at the handbag, Shao Yu recognized at a glance that these shoes were the limited edition co-branded shoes that he had not grabbed when he accompanied Qu Yang to queue up.
"Damn it, Shen Ci, how did you get it? You didn't buy it from a shoe dealer at a premium, right?" Shao Yu was surprised and happy, and he was happy for his brother.
Shen Ci did not deny it: "Otherwise, is there any other way?"
Shao Yu grinned and nodded, even happier than when he received the gift. Then his mind got hot and he said something inexplicably: "Li Xiao didn't go back to the dormitory for a long time before the vacation, and he didn't come back after the vacation."
"There is no need to report his affairs to me. I have nothing to do with him anymore." Shen Ci said calmly.
"I don't mean anything else..."
Shen Ci smiled slightly to express her understanding: "It doesn't matter. I know you mean well. If nothing happens, I will go up first. Thank you for passing it on to me."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"You're welcome, it's just a matter of convenience."
Shen Ci nodded, said goodbye and was about to leave when Shao Yu suddenly spoke again: "Shen Ci..."
"Huh?"
"You..." Shao Yu pursed his lips hesitantly, and after a while he mustered up the courage to ask: "Do you have feelings for Qu Yang?"
This question was asked suddenly, making Shen Ci slightly startled.
"I'm sorry, I'm just worried for him. He has a dull temper and may not be able to show his feelings sometimes, but I know he likes you." Shao Yu explained quickly.
Shen Ci recovered and smiled. She was not angry because of it. She just responded calmly: "You shouldn't say these things to me."
After saying that, Shen Ci turned around and entered the dormitory building.
Shao Yu sighed with some annoyance, raised his hand and patted his mouth gently: "You are so anxious. Qu Yang is not in a hurry himself, so I don't know if it is a disservice."
"Sent it out?"
Back in the dormitory, Gu Lianxing looked at Shen Ci and asked with a smile.
Shen Ci nodded.
"Qu Yang is very good. Why don't you give him a try? You've given away these shoes. I'm sure he can give him a push and work up the courage to confess to you."
Shen Ci chuckled and shook his head: "I guess he won't."
"So sure?"
Shen Ci nodded, and Gu Lianxing hesitated even more when he saw this: "He is really calm, isn't he afraid that someone else will get in first?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the first one arrived.
Tang Song sent a message to Shen Ci: "Shall we have dinner together tomorrow night?"
