Spoil the Sweet Cute Wife - C167
Winter passed and Spring came again. After spring began, because of Jian Xi’s continuous training, his body had already become quite strong.
“Master, when can I compete with Ma Linai again?” Jian Xi said.
His Master shook his head and said, “If you want to challenge Ma Linai, you can find her yourself after today’s training.”
At lunch time, Ma Linai had already prepared food and was waiting for her father and Jian Xi’s return. Unexpectedly, the moment Jian Xi entered the room, he said, “Ma Linai, I want to challenge you.”
Ma Linai was a little surprised: “How did you get defeated by me so quickly?”
Jian Xi did not care about all this, and said confidently: “If I can win, I will be even stronger than before.”
Ma Linai then said: “Let’s eat first, after we finish eating, I promise you.”
Jian Xi trained for the whole morning, he was hungry so he happily sat in front of the table and started to eat.
“If you lose to me again, what are you going to do?” Ma Linai said as she was picking up the dishes.
Jian Xi had not swallowed down the words in his mouth: “I will definitely win!”
Ma Linai laughed: “If I lose, I’ll marry you in the future, how about it?”
After he finished speaking, both master and Jian Xi were stunned. Jian Xi’s mouth was wrapped in food, and his face was a little red as he looked at Ma Linai.
His Master coughed twice, and asked: “Ma Linai, are you serious?”
The corner of Ma Linai’s mouth curled up slightly, and her eyes became somewhat stern as she said: “But I won’t lose.”
Jian Xi swallowed the food in his mouth and said, “Isn’t this wager a bit too big, I … I haven’t thought about it yet. ”
“If you lose, I decide to give you a name. How about it?”
Hearing Ma Linai’s words, Jian Xi was a little unhappy: “This bet is simply not equal! If you lose, I’ll give you a name as well! ”
His Master knocked on Jian Xi’s head with the chopsticks, “Brat, is Ma Linai not good enough for you? And I named her! ”
Jian Xi scratched his head, and said with a red face: “I won’t lose anyway.”
… ….
In the afternoon, the three of them came to the stream.
Ma Linai said: What are you competing in this time’s competition for? You decide. ”
Jian Xi trained his body by following his master here, and he also practiced with some weapons.
“This time, let’s compete in Sword Truth. The one who hits the opponent first will win.” Jian Xi’s tone of voice did not lack confidence, it seemed like he had also trained his sword techniques for a long time.
Ma Linai nodded her head, holding onto the wooden sword, her two hands holding onto the sword hilt, her expression changed slightly, but she remained calm and collected.
Jian Xi stood in the same position, not too far away from Ma Linai.
“Begin.” Under the orders of their master, Jian Xi and Ma Linai approached each other step by step.
Suddenly, Jian Xi swung the wooden sword in his hand towards Ma Linai, but was blocked by Ma Linai. Jian Xi retreated a step, kept the sword in his hand and swung to the other side of Ma Linai’s body, his speed was even faster than before, but Ma Linai managed to block it effortlessly.
After failing both times, Jian Xi’s heart grew a little impatient. He increased his speed and quickly struck Ma Linai, but Ma Linai was able to steadily catch every hit.
“Why didn’t you hit him?” Jian Xi secretly asked himself.
The reason he trained so hard everyday was to defeat Ma Linai, to wash away the shame from when he kicked the academy.
Ma Linai had never seen her participate in any sort of training, and her master had never cared about her. Furthermore, she was a girl, how could she be so strong?
“Don’t be careless, it’s my turn to attack.” Just as Ma Linai finished speaking, she quickly walked in front of Jian Xi and waved the wooden sword with force. Jian Xi was caught off guard and the sword in his hand was immediately flung away, he immediately froze on the spot with empty hands.
Ma Linai laughed lightly, and hacked the wooden sword towards Jian Xi’s head. Jian Xi immediately closed his eyes, and was prepared to receive the attack, but unexpectedly, when the wooden sword struck in front of his head, he stopped.
After a long time without any movement, as if nothing had happened, Jian Xi secretly opened one of his eyes and realized that a wooden sword was hanging from his head.
“Duang.” The wooden sword lightly knocked on Jian Xi’s head.
“Haha, I’ve won again! I want to give you a name. You’re not allowed to go back on your words, hahaha …” Ma Linai was extremely happy, he threw away the sword in his hand and ran back into the house, leaving Jian Xi there.
His Master walked over, picked up the two wooden swords on the ground and said, “Let’s go back to the house.”
“Why …” Jian Xi stood there in a daze, unable to believe it.
“Hmm? Because she works harder than anyone. ” His Master said lightly.
Jian Xi looked at his Master in disbelief and asked, “But she never trained, how could she work so hard?”
His Master smiled and said, “She was upstairs teaching herself school during the day. She trained herself outside the house after you went to bed at night.”
Hearing that, Jian Xi stood there in a daze. He realized that he had completely underestimated Ma Linai, and even more so did not know that Ma Linai had put in a great amount of effort that no one else could understand.
“However, don’t be discouraged. Sooner or later, there will come a day when you will definitely be able to defeat her. You can do it in any way you want.” His Master comforted him.
Jian Xi looked at his Master in a daze and said, “I can’t do it, she’s too strong.”
“She’s strong now, but she’s a girl.” His Master looked a little sad as she said lightly.
“Girl? Can’t girls become very strong? ” When Jian Xi heard his Master’s words, he was obviously a little angry.
“When a girl grows up, her strength won’t be stronger than a boy’s. Most girls aren’t as smart as boys, so don’t be discouraged.” After saying that, his Master turned around and prepared to return to the hut. However, he found that Ma Linai, who was standing in front of the door, could hear the conversation between the master and disciple just now.
Ma Linai’s face no longer had the joy from before. Even though she had already known that she would definitely not be as strong as a boy in the future, hearing her father say such words, she still couldn’t accept it.
Ma Linai rushed out expressionlessly into the mountain forest behind the house.
“Ma Linai!” Her Master realized that she had said something that she shouldn’t have said and regretted it.
“Master, I will definitely chase her back.” With that, Jian Xi followed and ran into the forest.
His Master looked at the two of them as they walked away. Considering his daughter’s mood, she didn’t pursue them, but instead followed them in silence.
Jian Xi was not far behind Ma Linai, but he realised that Ma Linai was running extremely fast, even though she was running with all her might, she was still unable to keep up.
After a while, Ma Linai disappeared from Jian Xi’s field of vision.
Jian Xi realized that there was a gap between him and Ma Linai in all aspects of their physical swordsmanship. Even though he was already very tired from running, he still persevered on.
Fortunately, after running for a while, he found Ma Linai sitting on the riverside, throwing rocks into the water.
“Why are you following me?” Ma Linai heard Jian Xi’s footsteps and asked.
“I… “Who do you think I’m going to run faster than you? Although I still can’t beat you …” Jian Xi didn’t know if he would be happier if he said this.
“Didn’t dad say that before long, you will definitely beat me in every aspect?” Ma Linai turned her head, and said with reddened eyes.
Seeing that, Jian Xi was at a loss on what to do, not knowing how to console her.
“Master only comforted me, how can you believe a man’s lies!” Jian Xi thought for a long time, then forced out this sentence.
“Then why should I believe your bullshit?” When Ma Linai said this, Jian Xi realized that he was also a man.
Jian Xi scratched his head and said, “I … I’m just a boy, and I … ”
“Come here.” Just as Jian Xi wanted to explain, he was interrupted by a single word from Ma Linai.
Jian Xi could only walk slowly to Ma Linai’s side.
“I can’t accept this. No matter how hard I try, in the end, it’s still because I’m a girl that I lose to men in many places.” Ma Linai said as she hugged her legs and hung her head on her knees.
Jian Xi stood beside Ma Linai in a daze, not knowing what to say.
“I… I will inherit your will, because I don’t want to lose to anyone. Even if you become a big woman in the future, I will protect you from other men. ” Jian Xi’s face was flushed red as he said all these words in one go.
Ma Linai turned her head, and said as if she was going to kill Jian Xi with her eyes: “Who did you say you were going to protect?”
Jian Xi was immediately dumbstruck. Realizing that Ma Linai was strong enough, she didn’t even need her protection and said some unnecessary words.
Seeing Jian Xi’s stunned look, Ma Linai laughed through her tears: “Sit down.”
Seeing Ma Linai smile, Jian Xi finally gasped for breath, thinking: It seems like it’s difficult to get along with girls.
“You just lost, so I’m going to give you a name.” Ma Linai picked up a rock from the ground and floated towards the stream in front of her.
“Man of men, you can rise if you admit defeat!” These words sounded funny from the mouth of the nine year old Jian Xi.
“Your personality is very pure, very simple. We decided on the winner at the little stream, and also decided on the winner at the little stream. Let’s call you Jian Xi.” Ma Linai looked at the flowing river path.
“Jian Xi…” Jian Xi muttered his name in his heart, thinking that it sounded very nice. “Ma Linai, you have talent, I really like this name.”
Ma Linai laughed, then picked up a stone from the ground and said: “Since I was young, my father and I mutually depend on each other for life, I know how much he loves me, ever since I found out about your experiences, I knew that father would definitely take you in.”
Jian Xi did not say anything. The arrogant and spoiled Yun Che would never say words like the weight of his master’s kindness to him, but that was what he had been thinking in his heart a long time ago.
“Let’s go home. It’s getting late, children.” His Master’s voice came from a place not far away.
Jian Xi and Ma Linai didn’t know when their master had arrived nearby.
This particular family of three had a different kind of warmth.
… ….
In the blink of an eye, three years had passed. Jian Xi had now fully grown up as a child, and his skills had improved greatly. On a morning in the early autumn, his master had suggested going to Tokyo to play with the students.
“Ma Linai, why aren’t you going? It’s only been three days, you’ll be back soon.” When Jian Xi heard that Ma Linai was left alone to look after the house, she was especially unhappy in her heart.
“You guys go ahead, I don’t like travelling far, moreover the chickens and ducks at home need to be taken care of, I’ll be at home waiting for you guys to come back.” Ma Linai was still unwilling to go with them, so everyone followed her orders and left Ma Linai alone at the Yokohama Peak.
After Jian Xi’s group arrived at Tokyo, they were attracted by the bustling scene here. It was completely different from the home of Yokohama that they had lived in for more than three years.
His master brought Jian Xi and the other children to Xinan Street and said, “Everyone can choose your favorite item, Master will give it to you.”
The children were overjoyed. They all rushed to the shops of various sizes. There were those who liked anime, those who liked digital electronics, and the money their masters had saved up all these years, preparing to give these cute disciples a present.
Jian Xi was naturally the same as everyone else. Upon hearing the news, he was extremely excited, but he didn’t know that while he was picking out items, the Death God of Hengbin was quietly approaching Ma Linai.
