Chapter 462: Chapter 462 You’re Overthinking It
Sheng Tang had a strange feeling: she and Gu Shiting were somewhat like a newlywed couple, working during the weekdays and taking turns staying at each other’s parents’ homes on weekends.
This thought gave her the chills.
However, she didn’t really hate it. If they did get married, this kind of life wouldn’t be so bad.
Snapping back to reality, she rubbed her face and thought, "Am I always daydreaming about younger guys? Seriously..."
On Friday night, Gu Shiting stayed at her home.
On Saturday, after breakfast, Gu Shiting accompanied her grandmother to buy groceries before taking Sheng Tang to his house.
The trainer was already waiting.
All morning, they practiced under the trainer’s guidance. The trainer was very pleased with Sheng Tang’s progress.
He said, "Miss Sheng can give it a try. Let’s call in Song Chen."
Song Chen had also learned some self-defense techniques but didn’t have time to train with the trainer every day.
"I’m afraid Song Chen will go easy on me," Sheng Tang said.
Song Chen replied, "You’re overthinking, Tangtang."
Sheng Tang: "..."
Song Chen quickly changed his clothes and returned.
The trainer said to Song Chen, "Try to sneak attack Miss Sheng. Remember to choke her neck. No matter how good someone is with their fists and feet, they can’t fight back if their neck is choked."
Gu Shiting frowned slightly.
The trainer glanced at him, "Why don’t you step outside, Young Master?"
Gu Shiting shook his head, "Let me watch."
Following the trainer’s instructions, Song Chen approached Sheng Tang, shook her hand, and then began.
He was about the same height as Gu Shiting, which made him quite tall for a man. Moreover, he was quick and knew some martial arts.
As he got closer, there was a sense of intimidation.
In her previous life, Sheng Tang had years of Sanda training and was very experienced.
She wasn’t intimidated by Song Chen.
Song Chen successfully caught her off guard and managed to choke her neck. Instead of struggling, Sheng Tang used his arm to lock her legs around his, and then threw him to the ground.
Even after they hit the ground, Song Chen didn’t release her neck. Sheng Tang folded her body and kicked Song Chen’s head with her legs.
After two kicks, Song Chen let go.
The trainer called for a stop and smiled, saying, "Not bad. A very successful counter-attack. Unless you encounter a true expert, you can handle most people now."
Sheng Tang smiled.
Gu Shiting walked over, lifted Sheng Tang’s chin, and saw the deep marks on her neck from Song Chen’s clothes. He felt a pang of distress.
He shot a fierce glare at Song Chen.
Song Chen laughed and didn’t take it seriously.
Sheng Tang patted his shoulder, "Sparring is meant to test real skills. If I met a bad guy, he wouldn’t go easy on me. Brother Song is very professional."
"Thank you, Tangtang," Song Chen said gently with a smile.
After the training, Sheng Tang and Gu Shiting went upstairs to shower.
During lunch, they discussed napping briefly and then heading to the famous street in the afternoon to do some sightseeing.
"I’ve heard a lot of influencers go there. Maybe we’ll run into some cameras," Sheng Tang said with a smile.
Taking the opportunity, Song Chen asked, "Want me to come and take photos for you two?"
"No!" Gu Shiting immediately responded.
Song Chen: "..."
The Young Master is way too possessive.
In Gu Shiting’s mind, this was a sweet date between him and Sheng Tang. Having a bodyguard was already annoying enough; bringing along the useless Song Chen would be unbearable.
As the three of them chatted over their meal, footsteps could be heard at the door.
"I’m back," Gu Shiyan shouted loudly.
She had been out for work for over a month. Only Song Chen had visited her once briefly; otherwise, she had been constantly traveling. Finally, she was done and could rest for a week.
Gu Shiting felt a sense of foreboding.
