Chapter 6: Mr. Gu’s Tragic “Sparring History” 04
When night fell, Father Su led the Su brothers to the square where the competition was held. The square was already full of spectators who came to watch the competition. The wind was cold, but the brothers were all in high spirits, all wearing white sportswear.
Su Jingjing stood on the right side of Su's father, observing the enemy's formation. The masters of several martial arts schools came to the scene with their disciples and sat under the ring. It was rare for several martial arts schools to gather together, and this time it actually attracted the attention of the media. Many reporters stood under the ring with cameras ready to record the most exciting moments.
"Listen, no matter whether we win or lose, you must fight with the demeanor of our Su family." Father Su stood in the front and instructed his disciples, "Whoever dares to desert the battlefield will be severely punished." After saying that, he walked onto the podium and delivered a speech as the overlord of the previous session.
"Jingjing, here's some water." Han Ran walked over from the back and handed Su Jingjing a bottle of water.
Su Jingjing took the water, looked behind her, and asked, "Where are Amy and Gu Rong?"
"I just saw Amy, I don't know where she is now." Han Ran shrugged, "But I haven't seen Gu Rong."
Su Jingjing thought of the farce this morning. The singers who were singing with their lives were almost scared to death by the battle of their fellow apprentices. They even left their instruments and ran away. As for Gu Rong... Su Jingjing suddenly smiled. She thought Gu Rong would be killed, but she didn't expect Gu Rong to be so agile that he turned around and ran away. Several fellow apprentices couldn't catch up with him. It seemed that a miracle happened at a critical moment.
"The first ones to go on stage are Su Jingjing from the Su Family Martial Arts School and Tong Tiesheng from the Tong Family Martial Arts School."
The Tong family martial arts school has always been a strong rival of the Su family, and Su Jingjing must never take it lightly.
Su Jingjing, as the first person from the Su family to appear, won applause from the audience. She was also wearing a white sportswear, and when she walked onto the stage, she happened to meet Tong Tiesheng's eyes.
Tong Tiesheng is Master Tong's son. He is about the same age as Su Jingjing and is almost the same size as his father. They are both tall, but they also have a fatal weakness: they don't react quickly enough. As long as Su Jingjing seizes this weakness, she will be able to defeat the enemy.
"Thank you." Su Jingjing clasped her hands together and said modestly.
Tong Tiesheng, however, did not take Su Jingjing seriously. He casually clasped his fists and did not even look at her.
Su Jingjing was not discouraged, but relieved. "Make your move," she said.
"Hey!" Tong Tiesheng ran towards Su Jingjing quickly. His momentum was so overwhelming that the entire arena began to shake.
Su Jingjing was forced to take two steps back by Tong Tiesheng's momentum, but she quickly stood firm, and gently turned sideways to meet Tong Tiesheng's steps, thus avoiding his attack. Then she turned lightly to his side and seized the opportunity to attack...
With a crisp sound, Su Jingjing twisted Tong Tiesheng's arm behind her back.
Everyone cheered loudly, especially the Su family. Seeing that Su Jingjing was about to win a great victory, the whole Su family was jubilant.
"Jingjing, come on! Jingjing, come on!"
There was a sudden inappropriate noise from the crowd.
Su Jingjing pushed Tong Tiesheng to the ground and seemed to have won the match. When she heard the noise, she subconsciously distracted herself to look and couldn't help but gasp.
Who is the person wearing a golden wig and a sailor suit from Sailor Moon under the stage?
I don't know him, I don't know him, I don't know him...
Su Jingjing kept repeating to herself that she didn't know this person, but she still couldn't convince herself. If Gu Rong didn't have a twin sister, then this person could only be a mutant of Gu Rong himself.
"Gu Rong, what are you doing?" Su Jingjing couldn't help but shout loudly to the audience.
Gu Rong, who was waving the hand-cranked flower wantonly, paused: "I'm here to cheer you up..."
"Are you here to make me angry?" Su Jingjing shouted angrily while capturing Tong Tiesheng.
Gu Rong suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but wink at Su Jingjing and said, "Don't worry, I'm dressed safely and won't be exposed. But I'm really happy that you're jealous..."
Everyone present couldn't help but make a retching expression.
"Hurry up and change your clothes! Ah——" Before Su Jingjing could finish her words, Tong Tiesheng, who was ready to attack, kicked her in the calf.
Su Jingjing lost her balance and was about to fall to one side.
Tong Tiesheng grabbed Su Jingjing by the collar and asked with a sneer, "Are you two filming an idol drama here?"
Su Jingjing tried her best, but her center of gravity was unstable and she was unable to turn defeat into victory.
Looking at this sudden reversal of the situation, some people were jubilant, some were dejected, and some...reacted rather radically.
"Hey, hey, hey, who told you to touch her?" Gu Rong took off his wig, threw away the flower, and ran to the stage angrily, cursing, "Who allowed you to touch her? A man of your age bullying a girl, aren't you ashamed?"
Tong Tiesheng looked Gu Rong up and down, then asked impatiently, "Who are you?"
"What do you care who I am? I never leave my name behind when I do good things. Just call me Lei Feng!" Gu Rong said firmly.
"are you crazy?"
Gu Rong ignored Tong Tiesheng's words, reached out to pry open his hand that was holding Su Jingjing's collar, and said through gritted teeth: "Let her go, do you hear me?"
"I won't let go, what can you do?" Tong Tiesheng even pushed Gu Rong provocatively.
Gu Rong, who was originally laughing, suddenly frowned and looked fierce. He straightened his back, and with his height advantage, he looked down at Tong Tiesheng and said, "As long as I am here today, don't even think about touching Su Jingjing."
"Gu Rong, don't be impulsive. This is a competition." Su Jingjing quickly broke free from Tong Tiesheng's hands, walked forward and pushed Gu Rong, wanting to ask him to get off the stage.
Gu Rong, dressed in women's clothing and wearing a golden crown, stood like a mountain, firmly blocking Su Jingjing's way. Hearing Su Jingjing's words, he turned around and looked at her: "No matter what kind of competition this is, I can't watch him hurt you."
"He won't hurt me." Su Jingjing hurriedly explained, completely forgetting that she should be angry with him.
"Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be prepared for the worst."
"Can……"
Before Su Jingjing could say anything, Master Tong on the opposite side interrupted her: "Enough!" He shouted, then turned to Su's father and said unhappily: "Old Su, for those of us who practice martial arts, getting injured is commonplace. If you are afraid that your daughter will get hurt, why did you let her fight?"
Su's father, who was standing aside, was also stunned for a long time. He came to his senses when he heard Master Tong talking to him. His expression was extremely embarrassed and he had no idea how to ease the situation.
Seeing this, Gu Rong wanted to speak up to help Su's father, but Su Jingjing held him back: "We, the younger generation, have no right to speak here, so don't speak."
Gu Rong had no choice but to give up and stood aside silently without saying anything. During this time, he tried to explain to Su Jingjing many times, but Su Jingjing didn't want to pay attention to him at all. He held back his words until the end, but Su Jingjing followed the Su family and left before him. Gu Rong looked at Su Jingjing's back, standing in the empty square, and couldn't help but sigh.
