“How many times do I have to warn you? Remember, there’s always someone better. The person you provoked clearly just wanted to teach you a lesson. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be as simple as a scratch now. Tell me honestly, who did you offend?”
Lin Guodong’s voice and expression were stern, imperceptibly exerting a lot of pressure on Lin Xiao.
In Lin Xiao’s growing environment, Lin Guodong had always been a dignified father. Ever since he was young, the only memory Lin Xiao had of his father’s love was his father’s stern gaze and even his punishment.
Weighted horse stance, pushing the stick with one hand was a basic martial arts skill for others. To Lin Xiao, it was completely common. It was also because he had grown up in such a harsh environment that Lin Xiao seemed to have become a completely different person when he was outside.
Therefore, under Lin Guodong’s interrogation, Lin Xiao did not last long before telling everything. After hearing what had happened, Lin Guodong looked at Lin Xiao with disappointment. His breathing became rapid. “You’ve embarrassed me outside. For a woman, you forgot what I taught you since you were young? Also, how old did you say that person called Su Yun was? Why didn’t I know of such a person?”
Lin Xiao lowered his head and thought for a long time before saying softly, “It looks about my age…’
“What?” Lin Guodong frowned, feeling very puzzled about this. “Such an experienced method and quite standard martial arts. How could it be done by a young man? Are you not telling the truth again?”
“No, Dad, what I said this time is true!”
In the silent suite, the atmosphere became more and more oppressive. Lin Xiao stole a glance and realized that Lin Guodong had been deep in thought. He did not know the reason, but Lin Guodong was quite shrewd.
From the wound on Lin Xiao’s neck, he determined that Lin Xiao had provoked an expert and had very exquisite control over his strength. Therefore, in his inherent impression, he had long determined that the person Lin Xiao had encountered was at least 40 to 50 years old.
If he had started training since he was young, it would be reasonable for him to have such methods at his age. However, when Lin Xiao said that the other party was only a young man about his age, this disrupted all of Lin Guodong’s speculation.
Under such circumstances, it was impossible for Lin Xiao to lie to him. Lin Guodong knew this very well.
Then, the question was, who was this young man called Su Yun?
“Su…” No matter how Lin Guodong thought about it, there did not seem to be many experts with the surname Su in the Chinese martial arts world. This ruled out the possibility that Su Yun was a genius second-generation martial artist.
The more Lin Guodong thought about this, the more he felt that something was wrong. Soon, he looked at Lin Xiao again.
Lin Xiao was so frightened by his father’s gaze that his entire body stiffened.
He did not even dare to breathe loudly, like a cat seeing a mouse.
“Lin Xiao, describe in detail the battle between the two of you. You have followed me to meet many uncles since you were young and have seen the martial arts of various sects. Can you tell from Su Yun’s actions which boxing and martial arts he practices?”
In response to Lin Guodong’s question, Lin Xiao shook his head awkwardly. “Dad, from the beginning to the end, we didn’t fight. Lu Shuo and the others wanted to go up and teach Su Yun a lesson, but Su Yun only flicked his wrist. Then, the street lamp suddenly shattered. I also felt the pain.
“They originally thought that it was a coincidence. Just as they were about to step forward again, Su Yun’s wrist trembled again and the tire burst. I felt that something was wrong, and thought that this person is very strange, so I quickly brought them away.”
Hearing Lin Xiao’s description, Lin Guodong was stunned on the spot and was even more confused. He had never fought before, but he had left such an ingenious wound on his son’s neck. No matter how he thought about it, something was wrong.
This was not the path of martial arts either!
Seeing how curious Lin Guodong was about Su Yun, Lin Xiao quickly told Lin Guodong what the plainclothes police officer had said to Lu Shuo on the way back.
At this moment, Lin Guodong’s brows were already furrowed. Clearly, the police attached great importance to Su Yun. With a little thought, Lin Guodong knew that it was not a coincidence that the plain clothes appeared on the night market street.
Did they think that Su Yun was very dangerous? What was the reason?
“Lin Xiao, let me ask you one last time. Is what you said just now true? If you dare to lie to me, I won’t let you off!”
Lin Xiao immediately shrank back in fear and quickly nodded firmly. “Dad, you know me. I might be a little of a jerk sometimes, but I never lie!”
“And you know you’re a bit of a jerk!” Lin Guodong snorted coldly and waved his hand. “Go, go back and reflect on yourself. In the future, when you’re outside, think before you do anything!”
After sending Lin Xiao away, Lin Guodong sat on the sofa alone and fell into deep thought for a long time. He filtered Lin Xiao’s words in his mind.
Lin Guodong became more and more curious about Su Yun. Especially in Lin
Xiao’s description, the two of them had never fought, but he could injure Lin Xiao and the others. This completely exceeded Lin Guodong’s previous judgment. The dagger did not seem to be able to completely explain Lin Xiao’s wound in such a description.
Then, there were only two possibilities.
The first was that Lin Xiao had some intentions in his description and lied. Secondly, Su Yun had thought-provoking and powerful methods..
