Wait, you can't do it here!

It was too late to dodge. Ji Ming's punches were as fast as lightning, as if he had practiced many times. In the blink of an eye, he landed his punch on the predetermined weak point.

Xingqiu couldn't dodge in time, so he silently lay down.

The situation was too sudden. Before Yun Jin could stop the battle, the outcome was already decided. She just stood there, staring at Ji Ming.

Mr. Ji Ming, why do you specialize in the lower three methods?

Chapter 33 Even if no one likes it

"Mr. Xingqiu, I sincerely apologize to you. I was too rough with you just now. I'm so sorry!"

Xingqiu lay on the bed, his face serene.

Ji Ming stood obediently by the bed, with Hu Tao and Yun Jin, his two protectors, behind him. On the surface, they were both standing with their arms crossed and glancing at him sideways, but in reality, they were both trying their best to suppress their laughter.

This is hilarious! One is the second young master Xingqiu, who wants to spar with martial arts heroes, and the other is a ruthless and straightforward unemployed youth. It would be strange if nothing went wrong during their fight.

Yun Jin blinked, poked Hu Tao's little hand, and said excitedly, "Hu Tao, why didn't you tell me you had a friend like Mr. Ji Ming?"

Hu Tao blinked back and poked him, "I thought you and Ji Ming had no connection. This guy is usually not interested in opera, but I didn't expect Zhong Li to drag him to see an opera."

"Can I come and chat with him in the future? Don't worry, it's just about opera."

"Of course, I can just give you the key directly. Ji Ming isn't my property, and it's his freedom to do whatever he wants."

Ji Ming, exasperated, interrupted the two girls' conversation and said irritably, "You handed over my house key so easily without even asking my opinion?"

Yun Jin and Hu Tao said in unison, "Stand still!"

Regardless, Yun Jin witnessed that epic battle firsthand. Ji Ming's ruthless and decisive attack methods amazed her. Even as a woman, she couldn't help but feel a sense of empathy when she saw Xing Qiu fall to the ground.

Mr. Ji Ming, your actions were far too ruthless!

Hu Tao, on the other hand, remained cheerful, completely unconcerned about whether Xing Qiu would transform from a handsome young man into a beautiful young woman. Instead, she patted Ji Ming on the shoulder, her tone enigmatic:

"You're really good at fighting, you always go for the low ground."

Ji Ming cupped his hands in greeting: "This is my experience from many years of wandering the world. If you want to learn, I can teach you."

Hu Tao snorted, "I won't learn it."

At this moment, Xingqiu, who had been unconscious due to pain, finally woke up. When he looked up and saw Ji Ming, his face was full of terror, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Mr. Ji Ming, I admit defeat. Your move was really too amazing."

"Impressive, right? If you want to learn, I can teach you, you just need to pay."

Xingqiu twitched the corner of his mouth and politely declined, saying, "No, this level of kung fu is too profound. I'd better not learn it."

Why are they all like this? Miss Yun Jin certainly won't refuse, right? If she did this on stage, it would definitely amaze everyone.

“Miss Yun Jin, you…”

“If Mr. Ji Ming dares to make such a joke, then I will never talk to Mr. Ji Ming again.”

Yun Jin's eyes were serious, and Ji Ming had no doubt about the truth of it, so he couldn't help but awkwardly shrink his neck.

Alright, alright, I'd better just stand there obediently.

Xingqiu sat up in bed and said helplessly, "Mr. Ji Ming, I just wanted to spar with you. Why do you have to humiliate me like this?"

"Humiliation? I didn't humiliate you."

"Then why specifically choose to attack from the lower three routes?"

Ji Ming shrugged, his eyes crystal clear: "I've always fought like this. Weren't you there back then?"

"I was there, but I didn't watch the fight. Mr. Ji Ming's eloquence is quite good."

"Right? I've always been quite eloquent."

Ji Ming was smug, but he didn't notice that Hu Tao's gaze was becoming increasingly strange.

Xingqiu, feeling bored, cupped his hands and said, "Let's call it a day. Next time we meet, we must have a serious spar. I've already memorized Mr. Ji Ming's attack patterns."

Really? Want to try my top three lane attack strategy?

Finally, Xingqiu staggered out of the courtyard. He vowed to practice his martial arts diligently when he got back. He thought that a chivalrous person like Mr. Ji Ming must have been teasing him, and that he hadn't used his full strength in the three attacks.

"Alright, alright, I'm going to continue my cultivation. Miss Yun Jin, would you like to come along?"

Yun Jin smiled politely and shook her head, saying, "Not for now. Hu Tao has a question she wants to ask you."

Ji Ming looked at Hu Tao and asked, "That question again? I already said, I just don't like those bastards, that's why I have no intention of standing up for you."

"That's not it."

Pulling out a red cloth shoe from behind her back, Hu Tao smiled broadly: "Where did this red cloth shoe come from? I saw it on your bedside table. You wouldn't be starting to covet women's personal items, would you?"

"A friend entrusted me with this..."

No, why should Ji Ming panic? Hu Tao has nothing to do with him. After hardening his stance, he took back the red cloth shoes and said irritably, "This is a token of love she gave me. Are you going to interfere with this?"

Her imposing manner instantly softened. Hu Tao knew she had no right to interfere in Ji Ming's private affairs, so she took a half step back and whispered, "I was just afraid you'd make a mistake, so don't be so fierce..."

"I didn't yell at you. Don't meddle in my business. We're just landlord and tenant, understand?"

Ji Ming's tone softened as he put the red cloth shoes back on the bedside table, walked over, and patted Hu Tao's little head: "Also, I won't be mean to you, otherwise..."

Otherwise, if I were to meet your grandfather one day, I would feel extremely guilty. He has been kind to me, so how could I be mean to his granddaughter?

"Okay, you're not allowed to touch me!"

Walnut's plum blossom eyes turned into round eyes, and she fled like the wind, truly a girl as swift as the wind.

Why panic? It's just Ji Ming. You can pat his head if you want, but why say such things? You despicable bastard.

Inside the room, Ji Ming looked innocently at Yun Jin and shrugged: "Hu Tao ran away."

"Yes, it's because Mr. Ji Ming is too straightforward. He should be more reserved."

Yun Jin couldn't suppress the smile on her face. She sat in the armchair, teasing the puppy Bai Tang, and slowly instructed, "If you want to pursue a lively and cute girl like Hu Tao, you should play with her often, instead of saying what you just said. Even I find it cheesy."

"Sweet talk? I didn't say anything, and I don't plan to pursue Walnut."

"Eh?!"

"Hey what? Hu Tao is so young. Ji Ming has no interest in little girls like that. He prefers the three-thousand-year-old Qilin Immortal."

Yun Jin couldn't believe it: "Mr. Ji Ming, it's not good to say one thing and mean another."

Ji Ming glanced at her sideways: "Compared to Hu Tao, I prefer Miss Yun Jin, who has a dignified temperament yet is also lively and lovely."

"Is this a confession?"

"Not counting."

Yun Jin breathed a sigh of relief, almost thinking that Ji Ming liked her. She angrily lectured, "Don't say such things in the future. Besides, Hu Tao is obviously very curious about you. You'd better seize this opportunity."

After saying that, she got up from the armchair and walked towards the door: "That's enough for today."

"Aren't you coming to watch my cultivation?"

"No, I need to go back to Yunhan Society to create a new opera, one about Mr. Ji Ming."

Ji Ming walked over, intending to see Yun Jin off: "About my opera? I'm just an unknown nobody, why should I write my own opera?"

"Consider it a return gift. Mr. Ji Ming was the first person to care about my voice, so I will create a play based on Mr. Ji Ming's style, even if no one likes it."

"That's so sad. It would be better if someone liked it."

Yun Jin's eyes curved into a smile as she raised her hand to her chest and waved it gently a few times: "See you next time, Mr. Ji Ming."

"Well, see you next time."

Chapter 34 is best practiced diligently.

“Mr. Ji Ming, as the most loyal partner of the Winter Fools, I think you should do something for us within your power.”

In the lounge of the Northern Bank, D'Artagnan was flipping through the confidential intelligence in his hand. He looked up at Ji Ming, who was burping, and couldn't help but feel annoyed.

Although Her Majesty the Queen did not care about the Fools' partners, her colleagues were quite concerned. When they learned that Tartaglia had chosen a street thug as a partner for the Fools, they all expressed indignation and disdain.

If Ji Ming were to play a role, they wouldn't be so angry. The key issue is that this guy goes to the Northern Bank every now and then to freeload, not only neglecting his duties but also taking intelligence to strengthen himself.

In short, D'Artagnan's colleagues disagreed with Ji Ming continuing to take advantage of the Fools; they wanted him to either play his proper role or simply disappear.

Therefore, D'Artagnan once again approached Jimin, demanding that he fulfill the obligations of a collaborator for the Fools.

Ji Ming casually crossed his legs, his eyes slightly open: "Speak, what do you Fools want?"

“Mr. Ji Ming, you met my colleague a while ago. She arrived in Mondstadt yesterday, but…”

"You Fatui are not popular in Mondstadt, are you?"

D'Artagnan spread his hands, handed the classified information to Ji Ming, and gestured with his chin: "Mr. Ji Ming is really sharp. The Fatui people who have been active in Mondstadt recently have been attacked frequently. No one has seen the appearance of the attackers. The only thing that can be confirmed is that he is a male fire-attribute God's Eye owner."

"I guess it's a Torch Hilichurl."

"Please don't joke around, Mr. Ji Ming."

D'Artagnan looked somewhat helpless. His eyes turned serious as he asked, "This morning, the lady sent a letter requesting your cooperation in her operation."

Ji Ming paused for a moment, then pointed to himself with his index finger and questioned, "Me?"
