Chapter 24: Depression

  Out of Grandpa Zhang's house, I came to the main street. Looking at those sparse people strolling around, I felt a wave of boredom. Before, in order to avenge my mom, I practiced Grandpa Zhang's martial arts desperately, although that old man almost killed me with his training. But back then, life was very fulfilling. Now, suddenly having such great power, I feel a sense of emptiness.

  Standing on the street, I thought for a moment and then headed towards Chen Kun's house. If they knew that I had succeeded in my practice, what kind of expression would they have? It was really exciting to think about it. As I thought about it, I couldn't help but smile foolishly. At this time, two very beautiful girls walked over from the opposite side, saw Rongyao's foolish smile, and one of the girls wearing a white dress said: "What a pity." The other girl asked strangely: "What's a pity?" "Look at that person, he looks quite handsome, but why is he an idiot?" The other girl turned her head to take a look, then nodded in agreement. "Yes, he does look quite handsome, but unfortunately, he's an idiot." After finishing speaking, the two girls shook their heads simultaneously.

  I heard their voices coming from afar, and I couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous. Did I really look like an idiot when I smiled? But being called handsome by two beauties made me feel a little sorry for myself, and my heart still felt a bit comforted.

  Chen Kun's father and mother were civil servants, working in the town government. During the day, there was almost no one at home. It was also unknown whether these two little guys were at home or not. When I arrived at their doorstep, I saw that the gate was closed. However, it wasn't locked, so I knew they were both at home and might still be asleep.

  He knocked hard on the gate several times, bang...bang...bang..., but there was no response. He knocked again with all his might. Before long, a voice came from inside, "What's all the knocking for? Can't you see I'm busy?" It was Cao Lei's voice. He sounded so irritated and impatient that he must still be in a spring dream, and I had woken him up.

  The gate creaked open, "Who is it? So early, and yet..." Ah...". Following the opening of the door crack, I saw Rongyao standing outside the gate. The words hadn't been spoken yet, but he swallowed them back hard. "Ah" It's you, boss, hehe... A flattering smile on his face. I didn't know it was you, please forgive me." Seeing that detestable smiling face, Rongyao felt like punching him in the face. Cao Lei saw Rongyao standing there with an unfriendly expression and said with a bow: "Boss, please come in, please come in. That kid Kunzi hasn't gotten up yet, I'll go call him." After finishing speaking, he ran back into the house in a flash.

  Looking at him, Rongyao felt a wave of depression in his heart. How did he end up with such a friend? This is simply humiliating.

  As soon as I entered the house, I saw Chen Kun putting on his clothes, while Cao Yue was standing by the edge of the bed, putting on his pants. Seeing Cao Yue standing by the edge of the bed, a mischievous idea suddenly emerged in my heart. Rongyao smiled and said, "I came so early just to tell you that I've successfully practiced the secret recipe given to us by Grandpa Zhang." After finishing speaking, the two people didn't react at all, still doing what they were doing. Rongyao felt a wave of disappointment. Before he could come back to his senses, he heard a "thud" sound, as if something had fallen to the ground. Rongyao looked down and saw Cao Yue lying on the ground with his five limbs splayed out, one pant leg still stuck on his foot, not yet put on. Haha... a burst of laughter. Finally, I vented out my gloomy mood from this morning.
