I'm in Love Apartment, and the system is making me cultivate immortality.

Chapter 181 Boxing Gym! Wan Yu?

The man's expression turned gloomy and uncertain, his initial confidence gone.

I was hoping to pick an easy target, but I ended up with someone who was pretending to be weak while actually being strong.

"You little rascal, don't look down on others in Shanghai. They might be making millions easily." Hu Yifei didn't miss the chance to kick him while he was down, and mocked him.

Gu Yifan continued, "And now? I'll put you on TV and let everyone see your true colors, making you lose face nationwide."

Even though he was tough on the surface, the man knew how shameless his behavior was. After hesitating for a while, he said sullenly, "Fine, you're a TV host, huh? You're something else. It's just a broken parking space, here you go."

Having said that, the man, feeling humiliated, didn't want to stay any longer and was about to slink away.

But Gu Yifan stopped him, "Wait a minute."

"What? It's just that I parked in the parking space for two days, what are you going to do about it?" The man glared fiercely at Gu Yifan.

Why did they get angry and embarrassed after being proven wrong?

"Showing you the car is just to prove that Teacher Zeng has the ability. As for you, why don't you come and practice?"

Gu Yifan walked forward calmly.

How could she let a man leave so easily, without giving anything in return?

"You just said it yourself: if we go to the boxing gym, whoever loses gets kicked out of this neighborhood. You're not going back on your word, are you?"

The man looked Gu Yifan up and down and said disdainfully, "Have you thought this through? I'm a boxer. Don't blame me if you get beaten up and are crying for your parents."

He was still fuming and hadn't vented his anger when someone delivered themselves to his door. He looked at the young man in front of him; he was quite handsome, but he was clearly all show and no substance.

"It's not certain who will cry for their parents."

Seeing the two exchanging harsh words, Lin Wanyu was worried. She wanted to step forward to stop them, but she was also afraid of offending Gu Yifan.

"Feifei, what should we do?"

Lin Wanyu turned to Yifei for help.

Yifei, on the other hand, had an expression that suggested she was enjoying the show even more. "Well done, Yifan! This bastard needs to be taught a lesson. If you lose, I'll take your place!"

Unlike Wanyu, Yifei believes that courage is a symbol of manhood. Even if she loses, she still has Wanyu by her side. It's no problem for her to avenge her student.

Zeng Xiaoxian gritted his teeth, after all, he was standing up for him, and said, "I'll do it too!"

Zhanbo hesitated for a moment, muttering that fighting was bad, fighting was bad, but then he remembered his older sister's disappointed expression that morning, gritted his teeth and shouted, "Count me in! I... I'll be the substitute!"

"Fine, fine, you guys want to get beaten up, huh? Then come on then." The man laughed in anger. A few ordinary people, thinking they could beat a professional boxer like him?

However, if given the chance to retaliate, he wouldn't mind showing these guys that their so-called courage and passion are utterly useless in the face of fists.

Guan Gu was also eager to try, but Hu Yifei pulled him back, saying, "Guan Gu, you should just give up."

"Why?" Guan Gu asked, his face full of confusion.

Hu Yifei rolled her eyes. "If they hear your accent, it'll be a buff for that guy."

Who can blame him when Guan Gu is Japanese?

Guan Gu lowered his head silently and remained silent.

"It's okay, Guan Gu, we all know you're a good Japanese person," Wan Yu quickly comforted Guan Gu.

A boxing gym near the apartment.

The man arrived at the door in his Land Rover Freelander, Zeng Xiaoxian in his Mercedes, and Gu Yifan in his beat-up Xiali.

"Have you thought this through? Getting injured and bleeding in the ring is common. Don't get beaten up and then have to call the police!"

The man got out of the car, glanced at Zeng Xiaoxian getting out of the Mercedes, his eyelids twitched violently a few times, and said sarcastically, "Don't cry later, don't embarrass yourself in front of women."

"the same as you."

Gu Yifan got out of the car and smiled at the man.

Seeing his confident demeanor, the man was somewhat wary, but then he thought, how much fighting power can a pretty boy have? He's just trying to show off in front of his girlfriend.

"Let's go."

The man gave a forced smile and walked into the boxing gym first.

Inside the boxing gym.

Many burly men wearing vests and shorts were swinging their fists and smashing them into the sandbags, and there were even shirtless, muscular fighters fighting in the ring.

Hu Yifei's eyes lit up; she was indeed itching to try it herself.

Zeng Xiaoxian and Zhanbo, who had initially mustered their courage, turned pale upon seeing this scene. Guan Gu, on the other hand, was relieved that he hadn't revealed his identity and resolved to remain completely silent for the rest of the time.
"What's going on, Lao Wang?"

As soon as the man entered, his attitude became even more arrogant. Seeing that someone was curious, he replied, "A few noobs who want to practice with me."

"Hey, wanna spar with you?"

Upon hearing this, the person asking the question had a strange expression and looked at everyone with an odd gaze.

Lin Wanyu saw something on the exhibition wall and quickly tugged at Gu Yifan's sleeve.

"Gu Yifan, look."

The top image shows a man's photo, and the bottom image shows his resume: a three-time champion of the South China Tiger Southeast Region, a runner-up in the Heroic Nature National Finals, and a renowned freestyle fighter.
"I didn't realize he was so strong." Gu Yifan said with some surprise. No wonder the man was so arrogant and not afraid at all.

It seems they have some confidence.

But this made Gu Yifan even more eager to test the other party.

"Yifan, otherwise... you shouldn't..." Lin Wanyu was very worried and bit her lip, trying to persuade Gu Yifan, as she was worried that Gu Yifan would get hurt.

"It's ok"

The two were whispering to each other.

People from the surrounding boxing gyms gradually gathered around, and began to look at everyone with ill intent.

"I feel like we've stumbled into a den of thieves," Zhanbo said in a low voice, his legs trembling slightly.

"Teacher Zeng, are you alright?"

Zeng Xiaoxian forced a smile that looked worse than a grimace. "It's alright. I should still be able to stand up."

He had the advantage just now, but now it seems the tide has turned.

There seem to be more people on the other side.

Sure enough, with the support of acquaintances, the man once again put on an arrogant face, "How about that? Didn't you have more people? Still so cocky now?"

As he spoke, the man stared at Gu Yifan with ill intent.

"Kid, do you have the guts to fight me? Don't say I'm bullying you. Say it three times loudly and I'll chicken out. Get out of here, and I won't bother with you."

The gym was mostly filled with men.

Seeing the hot-bodied Hu Yifei and the pretty and charming Lin Wanyu, two stunning beauties.

Some guys who only know how to build muscle but not brains couldn't contain themselves and started whistling.

"Hey beautiful, how about your friends? Why don't you become friends with us? We'll definitely protect you."

"Miss, maybe you shouldn't watch it later, so you don't get scared."

"Don't worry, Lao Wang will go easy on you. Let's finish this in one minute, Lao Wang, and give these two beauties some face."

"Even if they're beautiful, how could you possibly be interested in these ugly girls?"

Hu Yifei was so angry that she trembled all over and was about to rush out.

"Sister Yifei, leave it to me." Gu Yifan grabbed Hu Yifei's arm in time.

The two looked at each other.

"Don't worry, I'm confident." Gu Yifan revealed a hint of confidence.

The louder they yell now, the worse they'll get beaten later. Gu Yifan remembered all those guys.

Gu Yifan admitted it.

He's a very vengeful person!

He remembers everyone who insults him and will settle scores with them when he gets the chance. Even worse is when people insult his friends, especially Wan Yu and Yi Fei.

So none of these guys who talk big will get away with it!
Just as Hu Yifei was gritting her teeth, about to lose control of her anger...

"Wan Yu?!"

A hesitant yet slightly surprised voice came from the crowd at the boxing gym.

Hmm? Something else?

A flamboyant man with slicked-back hair emerged from the crowd at the boxing gym and strode towards them.

Lin Wanyu blinked, somewhat hesitantly, "Who are you?"

"I'm Atai!" the young-looking boy exclaimed in surprise.

"Atai? Oh. You're Atai from junior high?"

"That's right, it's me. I didn't expect to see you again, Wanyu. What a coincidence."

Gu Yifan watched as Atai walked directly towards Wanyu, frowned, and stepped aside to block Wanyu's path.

"Is something wrong?"

Gu Yifan remembered that Wan Yu did indeed have a classmate.

In the story, after the two meet by chance.

This guy, Atai, kept harassing Wanyu, even following her to her apartment and trying to physically assault her. He seemed to be a boxing champion, but he was knocked down by Zhanbo with one punch.

I never expected to run into you here.

Was it good luck, or really bad luck?

At first, Atai didn't recognize Lin Wanyu. It wasn't until just now that he realized she was his junior high school classmate. He never expected her to grow up to be such a beautiful young woman.

Atai's eyes lit up, and without thinking, he stepped forward to strike up a conversation.

Seeing Gu Yifan blocking Lin Wanyu's way, she paused in her tracks.

The two men looked at each other and both saw the hostility in each other's eyes.

"Wanyu, is this your friend?" Atai slowed down and tilted his head to ask.

"My boyfriend."

The naive Miss Lin was still pleasantly surprised to run into her classmate and nodded.

"Gu Yifan, this is my junior high school classmate~"

As she spoke, Lin Wanyu quietly leaned on Gu Yifan's shoulder.

"Back then, he was the school bully. I only attended junior high school in Shanghai for one year before going to New York, so he didn't know who I was."

Gu Yifan nodded and stood between the two.

The second time, he asked indifferently, "What is it?"

If it were other students, it would be one thing, but this guy has a criminal record and even tried to molest girls.

Gu Yifan would definitely not allow him to get close to Wanyu.

Atai's smile was a little stiff, but he still pretended to smile familiarly.

"I didn't expect you to find such a handsome boyfriend, Wanyu. We just meet up with old classmates and catch up. Friend, you're not jealous, are you?"

Now, everyone in the boxing gym looked this way, and even a normal man could sense the subtle tension between the two.

Atai had intended to provoke Gu Yifan, but Gu Yifan just smiled and said, "Jealous of you? Not at all."

The meaning is quite clear: they simply look down on Artest.

"We were just classmates in junior high school, there's nothing to reminisce about."

Atai's smile completely vanished, and he turned to look at Lin Wanyu.

"Wanyu, your boyfriend may have misunderstood. But it's okay, we're all friends, why don't we shake hands and make up? Let's all give him some face."

Upon hearing this, the people at the boxing gym nodded in agreement, showing them respect.

"Since we're all on the same side, let's just leave it at that."

"My friend, it's a pity you didn't have good taste. You didn't choose someone better, but picked a pretty boy instead."

"Hey, don't you know young girls like handsome guys? How can you talk like that?"

The surrounding whispers reached Lin Wanyu's ears.

Even a fool knows what that means.

Lin Wanyu sensed something was off. She wrinkled her nose and looked at Atai with a more distant gaze. After thinking for a moment, she said...

"Sorry, Atai, I only went to junior high school for one year, and we're not very close."

As she spoke, Lin Wanyu hugged Gu Yifan's arm tightly, stood on tiptoe, and gave Gu Yifan a quick kiss in front of everyone.

"I'm also worried my boyfriend might misunderstand."

This can be seen as a direct rebuttal to what everyone had just said.

Gu Yifan smiled slightly. "Thank you for your suggestion, but no need. I think a friendly match would be nice too."

A flicker of jealousy crossed Atai's eyes, and his expression turned gloomy and uncertain.

"Looks like I was just being presumptuous. See you at the arena then." With that, he turned and walked back.

The atmosphere became even more tense!

The man grinned maliciously, clenched his fist, turned around, and walked onto the ring. "Who wants to go first? You guys."

"Yifan, what do we do now? Should we take turns attacking or go all at once? That kid doesn't seem easy to mess with, is he targeting you?" Zeng Xiaoxian asked with some concern.

"So what if they're targeting us?"

Gu Yifan said nonchalantly.

Seeing this, Zeng Xiaoxian, who was already somewhat inclined to back down, became even more hesitant and stopped speaking.

Zeng Xiaoxian's mind was swirling with all sorts of thoughts, almost to the point of his head exploding.

suddenly!
Everything around us stopped, and the world seemed to quiet down.

Zeng Xiaoxian felt himself being dragged into a bright white space.

"Inner Theater"

"Evil Xiaoxian suddenly appeared, sporting a neatly combed slicked-back hairstyle, tilting his head to look at us: 'Tsk tsk tsk, what a grand display! How about it, Zeng Xiaoxian, you're embarrassed now?'"

Zeng Xiaoxian was startled by the sudden voice. "It's you? What are you doing out here?"

"Of course, it's because you're hesitating, because of some hidden agenda you have. That's why I, as the evil one, came out," Evil Xiaoxian said with a nonchalant, wicked smile. "You forgot, we're all one person!"

Zeng Xiaoxian's expression turned unnatural. "What could I possibly be thinking? Nonsense!"

"Evil Xiaoxian immediately retorted, 'Of course you are! You're blaming Gu Yifan, aren't you? You think he's meddling. If this hadn't happened, everything would be fine. Now you're going to get beaten up—can you honestly say you didn't think of that!'"

Zeng Xiaoxian's expression stiffened, and he lowered his head in embarrassment. "I thought about it. But! Only for a moment!"

"Evil Xiaoxian smacked his lips, 'Then you didn't think about it. If you were beaten and disfigured today, would you still be able to audition the day after tomorrow?'"

Zeng Xiaoxian hesitated, unable to speak, but finally gritted his teeth and said, "This has nothing to do with Xiao Fan. That guy is taking advantage of me! If I don't fight back, am I even a man?!"

"Evil Xiaoxian nodded and said slowly, 'That's right, but impulsiveness is the devil. You'll get beaten up later, and you might lose your hard-won audition opportunity. That spot is something you worked so hard to get; it's your treasure~'"

Zeng Xiaoxian looked even more troubled.

"Evil Xiaoxian walked up to Zeng Xiaoxian. The two 'Zeng Xiaoxians' looked exactly alike, but their temperaments were completely different. 'Please ask Atai to mediate. Wouldn't it be better for everyone to shake hands and make peace? Rather than acting rashly, are you going to throw away this opportunity? Who knows if there will be another chance?'"

"All you have to do is say the word. I'm sure Yifan will understand, right? It's not shameful to back down a little."

"That's right, shaking hands and making peace is the choice adults should make," Zeng Xiaoxian murmured, persuaded.

"Quiet."

"Seeing Zeng Xiaoxian's expression change several times, Evil Xiaoxian continued, 'This is also for Yifan and Zhanbo. You guys can't beat professional boxers at all.'"

"That would be even more embarrassing."

Zeng Xiaoxian looked troubled.

"Evil Xiaoxian finally said, 'Your greatest strength is your brain and your wisdom. Go and persuade Gu Yifan to end this farce. You can even thank him, can't you?'"

Zeng Xiaoxian seemed to be persuaded, and he nodded with difficulty. This seemed to be the best solution, but...

Zeng Xiaoxian looked up and glanced at Gu Yifan, who had taken off his short-sleeved shirt, revealing a well-proportioned figure.

He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

But if I say it now, would we still be brothers?
The voice of the wicked Xiaoxian rang out again.

"While there's still a chance, stop him. Stop him!"

"Shut up!"

"Ok?"

Gu Yifan asked, puzzled, and turned to look at Zeng Xiaoxian who had suddenly spoken.

"Teacher Zeng?"

Zeng Xiaoxian's expression changed several times.

They glanced at Gu Yifan, then at Zhanbo, Yifei, Guangu, and Wanyu, who had already received the protective gear and were putting it on.
"It's okay, I'll go first!" Zeng Xiaoxian said through gritted teeth. "I'm tough and can take a beating. Once I've exhausted that guy's strength, Yifan, you can go up and knock him out!"

Gu Yifan was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected Teacher Zeng to be so brave.
"In his inner world, Evil Xiaoxian was utterly shocked and furious. What are you saying?! You can't beat that guy at all, are you crazy?!"

I'm not crazy!
Zeng Xiaoxian silently picked up a set of protective gear.

The opportunity to interview for a host position is certainly important, but who is helping him with all of this?

They are friends!

It's Ziqiao, it's Gu Yifan, and it's Yifei, Zhanbo, Wanyu, and Guangu who are filled with righteous indignation after learning that he was humiliated!

They are all standing here now to help Zeng Xiaoxian regain his dignity as a man.

If he backs out now.

How can he still have the face to stay in Love Apartment and face these friends?
"I really want to be on the TV stage and become a TV host, but if the price is to let down the friends who have always supported me."

"I won't agree!"

"Evil Xiaoxian, his face contorted in horror, shouted incredulously, 'You will regret this, Zeng Xiaoxian! Every minute, every second of your future will be filled with regret for this impulsive and reckless decision!'"

I don't know if I'll regret it in the future, but if I back down today, I'm sure I'll regret it later!

Zeng Xiaoxian became very calm.

After saying that, he ignored the wicked Xiaoxian and smiled shyly at the surprised Gu Yifan.

"Hey Xiao Fan, thanks for the car, you drove really well!"

Zeng Xiaoxian gave a thumbs up.

"what?"

Wan Yu, Guangu, and Zhanbo looked surprised, but Ms. Hu didn't seem too surprised.

"In addition," Zeng Xiaoxian felt his heart beating faster and faster, and he showed a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Wait...remember to call an ambulance for me later."
