With Gu Changqing giving Gu Yan one-on-one coaching, Gu Yan finally mastered the first half of the boxing technique taught by Xuanyuan Qi.
Not only that, he even previewed the second half ahead of time. Although he wasn’t as smooth as with the first half, he could still manage it with some stumbles.
He immediately went off to show off to Xiao Jingkong, full of pride!
Xiao Jingkong looked as if he’d been struck by lightning, with a face full of disbelief!

He had to practice more!
Bishui Alley formally began its internal competition—

Gu Xiaobao didn’t return until it was almost time for lunch.
As soon as he entered the house, he started looking for his sister.
Yet today, his sister was not there.
Gu Xiaobao squeezed his small hands, raised his head dazedly, one brother, two brothers... a row of brothers.
Gu Changqing hadn’t seen Gu Xiaobao for a long time. He still remembered the first time he met him, the child trembled in his arms, but he should have grown out of that by now.
Gu Changqing confidently bent down and picked up the bewildered Gu Xiaobao.
Gu Xiaobao indeed did not tremble as before, but his whole little body stiffened.
"Big Brother, he still seems to be afraid of you. Let me." Gu Chengfeng took Xiaobao into his arms.
Sure enough, as soon as he reached Gu Chengfeng’s arms, Gu Xiaobao relaxed.
Unconvinced, Gu Changqing tried to hold him again.
Gu Xiaobao tensed up once more.
Gu Changqing: "..."
"Hahaha!" Gu Chengfeng laughed heartily, hands on his hips, "Big Brother! Xiaobao really doesn’t like you!"
He hugged the little guy back into his arms with an unsuppressable sense of pride, "Xiaobao, you like Second Brother the most, right?"
Gu Xiaobao looked at him seriously, seemingly contemplating his words.
Suddenly, Gu Xiaobao extended his hands, grabbing his ears like a flash, and pulled them into Zhao Feng’er’s style!
Gu Chengfeng: "...!!"
...
