The room was decorated in a simple antique style, full of traditional Chinese flair.

The furniture was all made of sandalwood, emitting a faint refreshing scent.

Three people sat down in the living room, and someone immediately came over to pour some green tea.

Wang Xiaoya was frightened, wondering to herself how Long Fei, this guy, had stumbled upon such good fortune to be able to become a disciple of Old Master Zhou?

Old Master Zhou looked at her with a smile, “This young lady must be Little Fei’s girlfriend, right?”

Wang Xiaoya was stunned for a moment, her heart racing, not knowing how to reply.

Previously, during a shareholders’ meeting, she had greeted Old Master Zhou once at the front desk.

She guessed that he probably had forgotten about her by now.

Long Fei forced a dry laugh and quickly took over the conversation, “Not yet, as for whether she will be in the future, who knows!”

Wang Xiaoya pinched him in the back in frustration, thinking to herself what nonsense he was talking about.

Old Master Zhou stroked his beard and laughed heartily, “What’s the matter, considering how beautiful the young lady is, you still don’t fancy her?”

Long Fei quickly shook his head, “No, it’s not that, Master thinks too highly of me, I’m just afraid that I’m not worthy of her!”

Wang Xiaoya’s face turned red, so embarrassed that she hung her head low.

Old Master Zhou said with a smile, “Then you need to work harder, this young lady has the fortune of a prosperous husband, if you two were to end up together, it would truly be a match made in heaven!”

Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya looked at each other with a smile, both of their cheeks turning red with awkwardness.

After the tea was served, the old master invited them to take a sip.

It was fragrant upon entering the mouth, tender and smooth, just like the tea leaves Chu Feng had given him.

Before Wang Xiaoya arrived, she had pondered for a long time, planning to plead with Old Master Zhou on Long Fei’s behalf, asking him to put in a good word for him.

But sitting in front of the old master, she felt his presence so imposing that she became too nervous to speak.

As she was trying to find a way to speak up, the old master took the initiative and said, “Little Fei, I’ve heard people say you’ve caused some trouble at the company?”

Long Fei hurriedly said, “Nonsense, that’s not true at all, Master, you shouldn’t believe such rumors.”

Old Master Zhou chuckled lightly, “Come on, stop trying to deceive me, let your girlfriend speak!

As soon as she walked in, I could see she had something heavy on her mind, surely it’s about this affair!”

Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya were startled, not expecting the old master’s observational skills to be so sharp.

Wang Xiaoya took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down and said, “Grandfather Zhou, Long Fei did get into trouble.

He fought with someone at the company to defend my reputation.

Now, the company is probably preparing to fire him!

It wasn’t easy for him to find this job, and they’re about to let him go before he’s even become a permanent employee; it’s such a pity.

I hope Grandfather Zhou could speak on Long Fei’s behalf.

Just give him a major demerit instead of firing him.”

“Ah, so now we come to the truth!”

Old Master Zhou smiled, set down his tea cup, and said lightly, “Actually, rather than working, I would prefer Little Fei to focus on his martial arts training.

He has a high level of martial arts expertise and can definitely become a Grandmaster-level figure.

However, since he likes his job, I will help with this matter.

I’ll just give them a call later!”

Wang Xiaoya looked at him in disbelief for a while, and then, excited, she quickly got up and bent over to thank him, “Thank you, Grandfather Zhou, thank you, Grandfather Zhou!”

She was so anxious and happy that she started to cry.

Old Master Zhou waved his hand, had Long Fei fetch her a facial tissue, and said with a light laugh, “Little Fei, look at how worried she is for you.

If I were you, I’d do anything to win her over!”

Long Fei wiped away Wang Xiaoya’s tears, not expecting her to care about him so much, and for a moment, he was quite moved.

He wasn’t worried because Chu Feng had his back, so he didn’t want to trouble Old Master Zhou.

Since the matter had reached this point, he still bowed with clasped hands and politely said to Old Master Zhou, “Master, actually I didn’t want to impose on you.

It seems a bit self-serving to ask you for a favor on our first visit.”

Old Master Zhou laughed heartily, “What self-serving?

Since I chose to take you in as my disciple, I consider you my own child.

“When a child makes a mistake, isn’t it normal for a parent to step in and mediate?”

Long Fei nodded his head and said no more.

Old Master Zhou’s concern was heartfelt; he couldn’t simply refuse.

He stood up, opened the bottle of Erguotou on the table, filled a cup, and raised it to Old Master Zhou, “Master, your disciple has never formally paid respects to you.

Today, I honor you with this cup and formally become your disciple under your tutelage!”

He knelt before Old Master Zhou, respectfully lifted the cup with both hands, and offered it to the old man.

Old Master Zhou smiled with delight, took the cup, and said lightly, “Very well, I’ll drink this cup of homage.

Remember, from now on, you are my closed-door disciple.

If anything bothers you at the company and you need my help, just ask.

I don’t want you to feel like a stranger, understand?”

“I understand, Master!”

Long Fei nodded earnestly.

Old Master Zhou gave a satisfied smile and lifted the cup, to drink it all in one go.

Long Fei sincerely kowtowed, officially accepting him as his first master.

Old Master Zhou waved him to rise.

Looking at his disciple, he thought happily, “Truth be told, taking you as my disciple is actually to my advantage.

You were born with the innate talent for martial arts, and your future achievements will surely surpass mine.

So, I hope you will continue to follow your heart, and I won’t shackle you with any constraints.

Only hope that you can make the Eight Trigrams Palm flourish and one day, even if I go down below, I can face the ancestors of our sect with a smile!”

Long Fei answered solemnly, “Master, rest assured, your disciple will not fail you!”

Old Master Zhou nodded and told Wang Xiaoya to sit outside for a while.

He took Long Fei to a room on the first floor and eagerly began to teach him the fundamentals of the Eight Trigrams Palm.

Wang Xiaoya looked on, completely baffled, thinking with Long Fei’s good rapport with Old Master Zhou, he should be able to land a better position in the company.

But this blockhead insisted on a security job.

She really couldn’t understand this man anymore.

With such great resources at his disposal, she had no idea what he was thinking all day.

On the coffee table, various fruits were laid out.

Wang Xiaoya felt hungry and, seeing no one around, sneakily began to help herself to the fruit.

She had intended to just try a little.

But once she started, she couldn’t stop.

A whole plate of grapes was devoured by her alone.

She touched her stomach, covered her mouth with a giggle, feeling ecstatic.

She had been troubled by a problem all day, but who knew, after coming here, it was effortlessly resolved.

An hour passed after Long Fei and Old Master Zhou went in, and they emerged, laughing together.

Old Master Zhou was glowing with happiness, looking as if he’d won the lottery, and he called for Wang Xiaoya to join them for a meal.

In the dining room, a rosewood table was laden with delicious dishes.

Long Fei went to the bathroom to freshen up, and then sat down to eat with Wang Xiaoya.

Wang Xiaoya asked him in a whisper, “Why is Grandpa Zhou so happy?”

Long Fei said smugly, “Of course it’s because I did well!”

“Narcissist!”

Wang Xiaoya pouted playfully, picked up her chopsticks, and began to drool over the scrumptious dishes on the table.

Some dishes, she had never seen before.

Maintaining the demeanor of a lady in the face of such delicacies was truly a challenge.
