High Martial Arts: Becoming a Liver Master

I've had breakfast.

Mr. Chen went to work, and Mrs. Chen did the housework.

Chen Mo played with his younger sister at home for a while before receiving a call from his friend Jiang Tao:

"Mozi? Are you up yet?"

"You're up early! You're up too?"

"Not only did I get up, but I also came to your neighborhood! Hehe!"

"So early? You usually sleep in on weekends, and you're here at only 8:30 in the morning!"

"Mozi, don't wrong me. I haven't slept in late for a long time! Never mind, don't come down yet, I'll go upstairs by myself. I bought a gift for Wan'er."

"Alright! Come on up!" Chen Mo didn't refuse.

Jiang Tao had visited many times and was naturally familiar with Chen Mo's home.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Mo lowered his head and told his sister:

"Little sister, your brother Jiang Tao is coming! Are you happy to welcome him?"

"Welcome!" Chen Wan'er said with a smile. "Let me pour tea for Brother Jiang Tao!"

"I'll help you get it done!"

"Uh-huh!"

Chen Mo wouldn't let his younger sister frail and sickly fetch the teapot.

Chen Mo took the teapot and placed it on the coffee table in the living room. He went to the bathroom to wash the teacups and handed them to his sister.

"Alright, the task of pouring tea is now up to Wan'er."

"We guarantee the mission will be completed."

Chen Wan'er took the teacup, her face serious.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

"Ding-dong! Ding-dong!"

"Little sister, sit down, I'll go open the door."

"Uh-huh!"

Chen Wan'er sat obediently with her teacup in hand, watching Chen Mo go to open the door.

Chen Mo opened the door and saw Jiang Tao with a big smile on his face, holding a gift in his right hand and a Tang sword hanging at his waist.

"Moko!"

Upon seeing Chen Mo, Jiang Tao immediately opened his arms, wanting to hug Chen Mo.

"Moko, I missed you so much!"

Chen Mo quickly stepped back, not letting Jiang Tao hug him:

"Get lost! I'm a man, who gave you permission to hug me!..."

The thought of a muscular man trying to hug him sent shivers down Chen Mo's spine, so he naturally hid.

Disapproved of by Chen Mo, Jiang Tao lowered his hands, pretended to be sad, and wiped away non-existent tears:

"Mozi, you heartless man! I miss you so much, how can you despise me?"

"I'm so heartbroken!"

"Alright, stop pretending!" Chen Mo, exasperated, immediately interrupted Jiang Tao's performance. "My sister is watching! You're just insulting her eyes!"

Upon hearing Chen Mo's words, Jiang Tao immediately stopped crying and said with a grin:

"Alright, for Wan'er's sake, I won't hold it against you."

Jiang Tao turned around and closed the door, skillfully changed into slippers, and followed Chen Mo into the living room.

"You've come all this way, why did you bring a gift again? Don't be so polite!"

"This is for Wan'er, not for you, so your dislike is useless! Besides, when visiting someone's home, how can you not bring a gift? You always bring gifts when you visit my house!"

Jiang Tao followed behind, smiling as he spoke.

"Brother Jiang Tao, welcome to my home! Please have some tea!"

Upon seeing Jiang Tao, Chen Wan'er, who had been waiting for a long time, held up a cup of tea with both hands and handed it to Jiang Tao.

Then he directed Jiang Tao to sit on the sofa.

Jiang Tao casually placed the gift on the coffee table, quickly took it with both hands, and said with a smile:

"Thank you, Xiao Wan'er! You're too kind, little master! I brought you a gift, please open it and take a look."

As he spoke, he winked at Chen Mo, as if to say, "Look, your sister really welcomes me!"

Chen Mo pretended not to see it; he did this every time he came over.

"Thank you for the gift, Brother Jiang Tao."

Chen Wan'er didn't open the gift. Hearing Jiang Tao call her "little master," she was delighted and unconsciously raised her head, striking a pose like the master of the house.

Jiang Tao took a sip of tea in front of Chen Wan'er, then put down the teacup. Seeing that she hadn't opened the gift, he reached out and opened the gift bag.

The contents inside are revealed: fruits, candies, and cookies, all on display.

"Sister Wan'er, look, I brought you a gift, lots of delicious food!"

"Thank you, Brother Jiang Tao!" Although Chen Wan'er was well-behaved, she was still a child and was immediately attracted by these things.

"Xiao Tao, you're already here, why did you bring all this stuff? It's such a waste of money!"

Knowing that Jiang Tao had arrived, Chen's mother quickly came out to greet him, "Have you had breakfast? If not, we have some at home, would you like some?"

"Xiao Mo, you too, you didn't even treat your friend properly!"

"Auntie, I've come several times already! You're too kind."

Jiang Tao quickly waved his hand, "I've already eaten, I'm not hungry now. You go about your business. I'm sorry to have bothered you today!"

"What's the big deal? I'll go wash the fruit."

As Chen's mother spoke, she bent down to get the fruit to wash.

"Auntie, no need!"

"Yes, I want it!"

Jiang Tao couldn't stop her, so he had no choice but to let Chen's mother wash the fruit.

After Chen's mother left, Jiang Tao took out a box and handed it to Chen Mo:

"These are nutritional supplements for Wan'er. You should keep them safe and don't let your mother see them, otherwise she'll make me take them back."

"Okay!" Chen Mo didn't refuse, took the nutritional supplements, and said, "When I have more money in the future, I'll give you even better things."

"My family is rich, I don't need you to send me anything!" Jiang Tao quickly refused, not wanting his friend to feel guilty.

Nutritional tablets are a type of health supplement with no side effects. They are rich in various substances needed by the human body and are very effective for people with malnutrition.

However, it is expensive; a box of twenty tablets costs five hundred yuan, and a single tablet costs twenty-five yuan.

Jiang Tao naturally knew about Chen Wan'er's situation, and these nutritional supplements would be of great help to her.

Normally, Chen's parents would buy such nutritional supplements for Chen Wan'er, because eating alone cannot provide enough nutrition.

"Alright, I won't stand on ceremony!" Chen Mo didn't say much more, keeping the kindness in his heart.

Jiang Tao knew Chen Mo's character, but instead of exposing Chen Mo's intentions, he began to carefully observe him for a while.

His actions led Chen Mo to misunderstand:

"Taozi, why are you staring at me like that? I don't like men!"

"What are you thinking? I don't like men either! I just wanted to see where you were hurt. You were in the hospital, are you better now?"

Jiang Tao's face darkened.

"It's all better now!" Chen Mo was relieved. It's no wonder he thought that way; Jiang Tao usually liked to pretend to cry and would hug Chen Mo at the same time.

Although he explained that it was to make him seem more pitiful, Chen Mo would always disdainfully pry him apart.

"The fruit is here!"

Just then, Chen's mother came over with some washed fruit and offered it to Jiang Tao.

Jiang Tao didn't stand on ceremony and started eating the fruit.

The conversation was interrupted, and Jiang Tao didn't ask about Chen Mo's wound.

The group then started chatting about other topics. After half an hour, Jiang Tao and Chen Mo decided to go to the martial arts gym to train.

"Mom, Taozi and I are going to the martial arts gym for practice. We won't be back for lunch."

"Okay, go ahead, be careful on the road."

"Okay, we'll be careful. Little sister, you stay home with Mommy and be a good girl."

"Mmm, brother, I'll be good!"

Chen Mo, carrying a Tang sword, went out with Jiang Tao.
