Chapter 201: There's No Woman I Can't Take
The library was dim inside, because it stored hidden forbidden books, no one tended it regularly, the piles were a mess, and jumping down kicked up a lot of dust.
"Pfft, pfft," he said twice, Lu Cheng brushed the dust off his body, then followed the corridor, wandering all the way to the backstage.
From far away he could hear various instruments, he lifted a corner of the curtain and looked toward the stage, but the performance hadn't started yet.
He was curious about what kind of high-ranking leaders had come today.
At that moment, someone patted his shoulder.
"Who are you? What are you doing skulking around here?"
The voice sounded familiar; Lu Cheng turned around and, indeed, it was the Li Kui he had met last time.
"You?" Clearly, Li Kui also recognized Lu Cheng.
"Comrade Li Kui, long time no see."
The little girl furrowed her thick eyebrows: "Calling someone Li Kui? That's terribly ugly."
Even if it's ugly, it's not as ugly as that thing called Niu Liandao.
Damn, just remembering it makes me feel humiliated; last time, in front of so many people, a little girl slapped me.
Next time I see her, I must slap her butt twice.
"What are you enjoying yourself for, how did you sneak in!"
Lu Cheng heard that and was displeased: "What do you mean 'sneaked in'? Can't I just walk in openly and honestly?"
The little girl didn't believe it at all, disdainfully saying: "Everyone who came today is a big figure; someone like you, how could you be invited in? Who are you fooling?"
Lu Cheng leaned in, face close: "What big figures are they?"
The little girl stepped back: "You see, you've slipped up; if you were truly invited, you wouldn't be clueless about who they are!"
She was still quite sharp-tongued; Lu Cheng, too lazy to continue, said: "Fine, I won't argue with you. Where is Group Leader Su? I'm looking for her."
The little girl snorted coldly: "What, you still haven't had enough from last time?"
"No, I just ask you something and you answer; why all the chatter?"
"You..." the little girl inhaled: "On what grounds should I tell you? If I don't tell you, what can you do?"
Watching her chatter, Lu Cheng extended his finger: "Someone like you, just wait to be dealt with by a man in the future…"
The little girl, angry, lunged to bite, but Lu Cheng reacted quickly; his finger was almost lost.
Pushing the little girl away, Lu Cheng decided to go to the backstage himself.
"You can't go in; who let you in? Not allowed," the little girl stepped two steps forward, trying to block him.
Lu Cheng slipped around from the side, saying as he walked: "I already told you, she's my Senior Sister, I'm not a bad person, why are you so defensive toward me…"
"Even so, without Group Leader Su's order, you still can't enter."
Seeing Lu Cheng ignore her and keep pushing inside, the little girl immediately called other people from the backstage.
Lu Cheng shook his head helplessly, pointing at the girls: "Just wait, someday I'll marry your Group Leader Su, and see if you still dare to block me."
"Tsk, our Group Leader Su will never marry you, you have no skin, no face! Sisters, kick him out."
"Hey, no, no, no, I really have business with your Group Leader Su…" Being pushed by the girls, Lu Cheng could only stretch his arms and shout: "Senior Sister Su, Senior Sister Su, come save me, they're about to assault me, Ouch, don't touch me…"
"How can you be so shameless? Who touched you? I'm the one pushing…"
The backstage clamor eventually attracted Su Feixue.
Seeing Lu Cheng messing around, she wasn't surprised at all, furrowing her brows: "Let him come in."
"Did you hear? I already said you don't need to block me," Lu Cheng straightened his clothes, smugly glancing at Li Kui, making the little girl pucker her lips in anger.
When he arrived at the office, Su Feixue was already waiting inside, and Lu Cheng casually closed the door.
That prompted Su Feixue to frown again: "No need to close the door."
"Better keep it closed; the little girls in your group love eavesdropping through the crack."
Su Feixue inhaled: "How did you sneak in?"
"No, why does even you say I sneaked in? Can't I…"
"Fine, fine, I'm too lazy to care how you came in; what business do you have?"
Lu Cheng was about to sit down and speak in detail when Su Feixue kicked his chair to the other side with a foot.
"Don't sit, get to the point; I don't have time for your nonsense."
Lu Cheng didn't mind: "I just came to see you; it's been so long since we met…"
"That's enough looking, then you may leave."
Lu Cheng pursed his lips: "Don't always be so fierce; after all we share the same Master, we're not blood siblings but close as such. In the future, if anyone needs help, it's us from the same sect who will assist each other."
Hearing Lu Cheng's words, Su Feixue was startled; this guy's speech is usually unpleasant, how is it now sounding so nice?
Su Feixue slightly softened her mood: "What exactly do you want? I'm busy right now."
"Look at that attitude of yours, fine then—give me a dance and I'll tell you."
Su Feixue frowned again; after just saying something, she reverted to her original expression.
"Heh, you want me to dance for you? Fine, beat me first and then we'll talk."
Now Lu Cheng scratched his head a bit.
He considered himself already quite formidable, but after sparring with Su Feixue last time, he realized she was indeed no match.
Even a woman he couldn't beat, Lu Cheng felt his face couldn't stay that way.
"Senior Sister Su, did our Master perhaps…"
Lu Cheng just guessed offhand, not expecting it to be true.
Su Feixue expressionless: "So you were right; Master indeed has some techniques he didn't teach you."
Lu Cheng was a bit skeptical: "That can't be, I'm a Closed-door Disciple after all; Master wouldn't hide things from me."
"It's not really hiding; it's just unnecessary to teach you."
Hearing Su Feixue say that, Lu Cheng grew more curious: "Then what exactly is the technique? Tell me about it."
Su Feixue just felt he was being clingy: "A simple, practical killing technique—do you say you need it?"
So that's how it is; no wonder Master never taught it, unlike the senior brothers—back then the senior brothers needed to go into battle and kill enemies, so the more practical the technique, the better.
Now it's a peaceful era, and Xu Erye teaches him martial arts only for strengthening the body, with more showy moves.
When facing ordinary petty thugs, Lu Cheng can take on three or five without trouble, but if he meets someone like Su Feixue who truly masters the technique, it becomes a bit out of his league.
Lu Cheng recalled a brawl scheduled at nine p. m., thinking it might come in handy.
Although a killing technique takes a life in a single move, a simple fight doesn't require killing, yet as long as one holds back strength, one can easily subdue the opponent.
In a brawl you have to conserve energy as much as possible, seeing who can stay standing till the end, whereas a killing technique is actually the most energy‑saving.
"Then teach me two moves."
Su Feixue slightly frowned: "I won't teach you; get out quickly, I still have to prepare for a performance."
She won't even let him dance, won't teach anything, and considering Lu Cheng, a Pick‑up Artist, has taken countless women, there isn't a woman he hasn't managed to get.
Then, without a hint of emotion, he slapped two boxes of Insulin onto the table.
