Chapter 2749: Chapter 2749: The Sudden Truth (5)

In a split second, Jiang Nan’s fist swung straight toward her face!

"Ah—"

Youyou saw the fist appear right in front of her eyes in an instant and instinctively closed her eyes.

She waited for several seconds, but pain didn’t come. Slowly, she opened her eyes and saw the fist stop just a centimeter from her nose.

Before she could breathe a sigh of relief, she heard Jiang Nan’s cold voice, "You lost."

"..."

Youyou’s face turned pale as she looked at him, not out of fear, but surprise.

For the first time, she felt she was not familiar with the person in front of her. The man who always seemed indifferent seemed to be hiding many secrets.

"Who’s your coach? I want to learn from him. Could you introduce me?" Youyou snapped out of her daze, showed no sign of defeat, picked up her whip, and stepped forward to ask him.

"With your talent, even with ten coaches, you wouldn’t beat me." Jiang Nan walked to the side of the field, picked up a towel, and casually wiped his face, glancing at her.

"Hey! Don’t get cocky just because you’ve beaten me. If you have the guts, go challenge Dan Tingye!" Youyou walked up to him, plopped down on a chair, swinging her legs, and glared at him unhappily.

"..."

Jiang Nan paused in his sweat-wiping, a glint passed through his eyes.

"But in all seriousness, you don’t really seem like someone who would be so strong. Can you tell me how you train?" Youyou is competitive but not a sore loser. She admitted her defeat willingly and wanted to improve herself.

Even her wicked dad said that only by losing enough times can one slowly become invincible.

She was still young, she wasn’t afraid.

"You lost, not me. The one who should be answering questions isn’t me." Jiang Nan tossed the towel aside, turned to look at her, his eyes filled with displeasure.

She hadn’t stopped chattering since she walked in.

"I’ll just ask this question. You can ask anything else you want, will that work?" Youyou started to fidget with her fingers, sitting on the chair obediently, showing sincerity.

Jiang Nan glanced at her, his gaze dim, and after a long while, he spoke leisurely.

"Why do you want to practice martial arts?"

"Ah?" Youyou was stunned.

"No one is born loving to fight. Why, as a girl, do you have to be so violent?" Jiang Nan rephrased the question.

"I grew up in the Adolf family, and my grandfather always told me that there are no weaklings in the Adolf family, so I have to strive to be strong." Youyou tilted her head, thought for a while, and answered earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Nan’s lips curled, showing a mocking sneer.

"I’m different from you. I want to protect the people I care about, so I must be strong."

Jiang Nan turned to look at her, "Not just striving to be strong, but being strong enough to shield her from the storms."

"Who is that person?" Youyou was taken aback. For the first time, she didn’t persist with the fighting topic but asked this out of the blue.

"..."

Jiang Nan’s expression stiffened for a second, then returned to normal, speaking indifferently, "No one in particular. Does my mom count?"

"Don’t kid me. I know aunt is a formidable police officer; she doesn’t need your protection." Youyou made a face at him, clearly not believing.

Jiang Nan didn’t continue explaining. Instead, he looked at her seriously, "How did you find this place?"
