Fei Hu carefully pushed the door open. The training room was empty, and the equipment used for training was neatly arranged. However, Fei Hu quickly noticed something unusual; one of the hanging sandbags was swaying slightly, indicating that someone was definitely here. Fei Hu swiftly took two steps forward, scanning the surroundings with his eyes.
At that moment, a loud clang of the iron door closing echoed behind Fei Hu, and he realized he had made a big mistake. He had checked everywhere except behind the door. He quickly turned around and gasped! There stood Yingzi, the chief consultant who had sparred with him that morning, leaning against the iron door, her beautiful eyes fixed on him without moving.
Fei Hu was already feeling uneasy, but seeing her made him even more anxious. He struggled to control his emotions and quietly asked, "Was it you who called?"
"Yes! What's wrong? Can't I call?" Yingzi had taken off her jacket and was wearing a military green tank top. Although her chest had been bandaged, the slight curves were still clearly visible. She crossed her arms over her shoulders, looking defiant.
"I apologize for what happened this morning. Please forgive me. But did you bring me here to punish me?" Fei Hu said, a hint of disdain in his eyes, feeling that leaders often used their positions to intimidate others.
Yingzi took a couple of steps closer to Fei Hu and sneered, "You underestimate me! I just think your skills are impressive and wanted to spar with you so you wouldn't look down on others."
Who is looking down on whom? Fei Hu thought that while Yingzi was indeed beautiful, she was also a bit difficult to deal with. It was clear she came looking for trouble but twisted it to make it seem like it was Fei Hu's fault.
"Stop stalling and take off your shirt so we can start! You're a grown man but act like a coward, not getting straight to the point," Yingzi said as she stepped forward with her left foot and spread her arms apart in a pose reminiscent of a wild horse splitting its mane.
Upon seeing this, Fei Hu thought, hey! She's quite skilled; it seems I've met my match today. However, she is a girl, and hurting her or winning against her felt somewhat inappropriate. Plus, she was a leader in the group; how could he compete? Fei Hu couldn't help but clasp his fists towards Yingzi, saying, "It's all about mutual learning; let's keep it light."
"You're so full of talk," Yingzi interrupted before Fei Hu could finish and launched a punch at him.
As soon as Fei Hu had unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt, he saw Yingzi's punch coming at him. He blocked with his left hand while unbuttoning another button with his right hand. After three attacks from Yingzi, he managed to block each one with both hands. By the third attack, his shirt came off completely, revealing strong muscles beneath his white tank top. Only then did Yingzi feel slightly surprised; she hadn't expected that the Shengwei Group would be hiding such talent. Since she had initiated the challenge, there must be a conclusion to it.
Suddenly, Yingzi changed her moves, each strike fierce and aggressive, but Fei Hu handled it with ease. For a moment, they were locked in a stalemate, both secretly admiring each other's skills.
Yingzi had thought that the martial arts practiced by commoners were mostly flashy and ineffective against their regular troops. To her surprise, Fei Hu's techniques were practical and his fundamentals solid. After fighting for a while, she couldn't find any flaws in his defense.
As Fei Hu fought, he also pondered that if this continued, it would end in a draw. Men were supposed to be stronger than women; otherwise, she would surely bully him at work later. Just then, he remembered the Tiger Fist his grandfather had taught him. This style belonged to the Yi Xing Quan and he rarely used it because it was bound to injure someone. After all, the tiger was a fierce creature, and his grandfather had added some lethal moves to it. Once unleashed, its power was immense.
Seeing that Fei Hu seemed distracted, Yingzi executed a sweeping attack aimed at his lower body. Although this move was simple, Yingzi's assault was both urgent and fierce. Coupled with Fei Hu's momentary lapse in focus, such high-level exchanges allowed no room for error. Fei Hu found himself cornered by Yingzi.
In a moment of desperation, Fei Hu suddenly performed a backflip, using the wall for leverage. He kicked off with both legs in a move called "Tiger Descending the Mountain," charging directly at Yingzi. This attack was filled with killing intent; one hand clawed towards Yingzi's throat while the other reached for her chest. Caught off guard by his ferocity, Yingzi had no choice but to bring her hands together to defend against the strike aimed at her throat. However, this left her chest wide open.
Just as Fei Hu's hand was about to touch Yingzi's chest, he realized this was a woman's forbidden area. In an instant, his hand brushed against Yingzi's soft front but he couldn't pull back in time and ended up grabbing her white arm instead. Yingzi let out a sharp scream and retaliated with a kick that landed squarely on Fei Hu's groin as he had just landed on the ground. Using the momentum from the kick, he rolled away and quickly got back on his feet, looking startled.
Although he had claimed to hold back earlier, he hadn't managed to restrain himself completely. Now he saw several clear scratches on Yingzi's arm where he had grabbed her. Alarmed, Fei Hu quickly lowered his head.
"Hey! Not bad! What did you do before? Why are you just working as a security guard here?" Yingzi wiped the sweat from her forehead with a smile.
Fei Hu finally relaxed his tense heart and quietly replied, "I'm sorry; I lost control earlier. I haven't done anything before; my skills are what I learned from my grandfather—it's a bit rough around the edges. Please don't laugh at me."
"Haha, so humble! It's perfectly normal for martial artists to get a few minor injuries; there's nothing to make a fuss about. That last move of yours must have been Tiger Fist! Its power is impressive," Yingzi said with an envious expression, clearly showing her love for martial arts.
Fei Hu nodded and said, "Yes, you have a good eye."
"Haha, you're really funny! What do you mean 'miss'? We're about the same age; just call me Yingzi! By the way, your name and your skills are quite interesting—it really does resemble a flying tiger! Amazing—simply amazing!" Yingzi exclaimed as she put on her jacket. Suddenly standing before Fei Hu was another stunning beauty with grace and charm. Who would have thought that this beautiful woman possessed such extraordinary skills?
"Oh, and one more thing! What happened today must not be told to anyone. Wait a moment, I'll go first, and you just lock the door after me," Yingzi said with a sweet smile at Fei Hu before turning and leaving.
Fei Hu got dressed and locked the door. Just as he took a couple of steps, he heard someone call from behind, "Hey! Why aren't you off work? What are you doing here?"
Fei Hu turned around to see the security team leader. He quickly smiled and said, "Just came out for a stroll after eating too much. What about you?"
"I'm checking if the training room door is locked. Today, some consultant called asking to have the door opened because she was looking for something. I helped her find it, but she insisted I keep the door open for two hours. These officials are really hard to please," the security team leader said, shaking his head helplessly.
The two chatted and joked as they walked toward the main entrance. That's how people are these days. When Fei Hu first arrived, the security team leader didn't give him a good face at all. But when he noticed Helena treating Fei Hu differently, he immediately did a complete turnaround, becoming friendly as if they were old friends.
As they reached the main entrance, Fei Hu was about to greet the duty officer, Team Leader Wang, when his phone rang unexpectedly. He had no choice but to answer it. Looking at the unfamiliar number, Fei Hu irritably said into the receiver, "Hello, who are you looking for?"
"Of course I'm looking for you! Can't you tell who I am?" A woman's charming voice made him feel weak all over.
Fei Hu thought for a moment but couldn't remember who this person was. Assuming it was another random woman, he raised his voice and said, "I can't tell. If you don't say who you are, I'm hanging up."
"Hey! You little brat, have you gained some experience after not seeing me for a few days? It's Xia Yan! You wouldn't say you don't recognize me!" The woman's tone changed immediately and sounded a bit angry.
Fei Hu slapped his thigh; how could he forget this person? He laughed and said, "Hahaha, it's you! Why did you change your number again?"
"Because I like it; why do you care? Where are you? I'll come pick you up," Xia Yan's words made Fei Hu perk up.
