Chapter 146: Chapter 146: Your Grandpa Better Not Lose Too Badly
"By the way, if you need my help, don’t forget to let me know," Su Changfeng chuckled.
Gu Qing’er looked up and said dismissively to Su Changfeng, "Why would I need your help? There are plenty of experts here. Who do you think you are? Watch carefully how my grandfather defeats them!"
"Hmm, I’ll definitely keep my eyes wide open and watch closely, hopefully, your grandpa won’t lose too badly," Su Changfeng said in all seriousness, causing Gu Qing’er to redden with anger.
Originally, Gu Changsheng intended to have the best fighter here in the ring, but now it concerned Gu Qing’er’s future, and since Wang Fu had mentioned it wouldn’t be decided by just one match, he planned to have others test the person Wang Fu brought along.
"Watch closely, this fight must not be lost," Gu Changsheng instructed the person next to him—who happened to be the best fighter here—and currently standing in the ring was the second strongest person in this martial hall.
"Rest assured, I’ll do my utmost," came the reply.
Then there was a loud noise from the ring, Wang Fu’s person stomped the ground, exuding a formidable aura that made the arena shake.
With a bang, the man swiftly approached Gu Changsheng’s fighter—fast to ordinary eyes, but Su Changfeng shook his head upon seeing this scene.
"Too much emphasis on power, hence a significant drop in speed and agility, but it’s enough to deal with Gu Changsheng’s fighter."
Su Changfeng’s words implied the game was over.
Just as Su Changfeng finished speaking, Wang Fu’s man punched out, followed by a scream, and Gu Changsheng’s fighter was knocked off the ring with that blow.
This was just a frontal attack, and the match was over.
Gu Changsheng stared incredulously.
Why was this person so strong that even the people in the martial hall couldn’t withstand that blow? They were knocked unconscious by it.
"Are you confident now?" Gu Changsheng asked the person beside him, finally realizing why Wang Fu would dare to wager half his estate; clearly, the old fellow was very well-prepared!
The person nearby smiled bitterly, the fighter’s strength far exceeded his own, similar to the one just knocked off the platform—typically, it would take dozens of moves to finish the fight, but Wang Fu’s man ended the match in a single strike.
"Master, all I can do now is try my best," said the man.
"Changsheng, the strength of these fighters here seems quite average, huh? They couldn’t even take a single hit?" Wang Fu remarked smugly.
Gu Changsheng clenched his fists; victory or defeat didn’t matter, the key was Gu Qing’er’s future happiness—it couldn’t fall into Wang Changtian’s hands.
"No rush, the top fighters in the martial hall haven’t shown up yet," Gu Changsheng said.
The best fighter in the martial hall stepped up, but clearly lacked confidence.
Su Changfeng sighed helplessly; no moves made yet, but fear was already written on his face—it didn’t matter whether he acted; this person would surely lose.
"Grandpa, are we going to lose?" Gu Qing’er clutched Gu Changsheng’s hand tightly.
Gu Changsheng’s forehead was slowly breaking out in cold sweat, despite repeatedly telling himself not to lose; yet, he had no confidence anymore.
"Qing’er, don’t worry. Grandpa will definitely not let that rascal Wang Changtian marry you!" Gu Changsheng said firmly.
At this moment, Gu Qing’er couldn’t help but glance secretively at Su Changfeng—if the martial hall’s people lost, could this guy be of any help?
But she had just told him she wouldn’t seek his help, so if she asked him now, wouldn’t it be embarrassing?
"Hurry and finish; there are plenty of people here, if you don’t beat them all, Gu Changsheng definitely won’t admit defeat," Wang Fu instructed the person in the ring.
The person didn’t speak, just nodded a little, then smirked disdainfully, preparing to strike again.
Another punch and the best fighter in the martial hall was sent flying out of the ring, crashing onto the ground with a thud.
Gu Changsheng’s face turned very pale; another loss, and still not able to withstand a single blow.
Wang Fu observed the situation without change in his expression because the person was a trump card hired at a high price; it was not just about face, but about winning a wife for Wang Changtian.
"Grandpa, we’ve... we’ve lost again," Gu Qing’er, holding Gu Changsheng’s hand, found it soaked with sweat too. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Wang Fu laughed and said to Gu Changsheng, "Changsheng, let’s not waste time anymore; call out the experts from your martial hall. We can’t keep trying like this, can we?"
Experts in the martial hall?
With the top two fighters already losing, where was he going to find experts?
Defeated means acknowledging.
But how could Gu Changsheng admit defeat? If he did, Gu Qing’er’s happiness would be lost.
"How about asking for help from him?" Gu Qing’er pointed at Su Changfeng.
"Him?" Gu Changsheng was somewhat surprised and looked at Gu Qing’er, not understanding why she said this.
"He just said if we lost, we could ask him for help," Gu Qing’er said.
Did this guy really say that? Yet, looking at him, he didn’t seem like a fighter at all; how could he confidently utter such words?
"Qing’er, don’t listen to strangers; look at his demeanor, does he resemble an expert?" Gu Changsheng said.
Gu Qing’er sighed; in truth, she indeed saw nothing in Su Changfeng resembling an expert, yet she couldn’t accept marrying Wang Changtian.
Letting go of Gu Changsheng’s hand, Gu Qing’er, face flushed, walked towards Su Changfeng, feeling mostly ashamed because she had once claimed she wouldn’t seek his help.
Approaching Su Changfeng, Gu Qing’er lowered her head, unable to voice her request for assistance.
Su Changfeng likewise remained silent, standing there quietly, waiting.
"Can you... help me a little?" Gu Qing’er spoke, her voice barely audible like a buzzing mosquito.
Even though Su Changfeng heard Gu Qing’er’s words, he pretended not to, asking, "What did you just say?"
Gu Qing’er’s face grew even redder; clearly he heard perfectly, now feigning ignorance?
"Can you help me a little?" Gu Qing’er said, a little louder.
"No problem, but what do I get in return?" Su Changfeng replied.
