Chapter 118: Chapter 118: Who’s Lost Weight?
Gu Cheng was rarely a bit excited.
He slightly lowered his gaze, then quickly looked at Tan Sheng, "Thank you for your hard work."
"Oh, it’s nothing."
[Ancient Martial System: Great!]
Tuanzi, who was secretly clearing the table, was startled.
[Miaomiao: Little Gu, what’s wrong with you?]
The system explained simply.
Tuanzi got interested, wiped her little paws, and ran over to listen.
She rested her little head on Gu Cheng’s arm and just stared at Tan Sheng.
Tan Sheng: "But the official assessment involves some processes, which are quite complicated. For example, during the assessment, it’s necessary to mention the martial ethics training, values, and also assess etiquette. Related to martial arts, it’s divided into basic techniques, professional physical fitness, martial arts weapon skills, etc. Oh, and there’s also a theory test."
Tuanzi couldn’t help holding her little head.
"So troublesome."
She had a bright idea, her eyes sparkled.
"Can Miaomiao just directly perform one of the Eighteen Martial Arts to replace all the content?"
Tan Sheng: "Well, the Provincial Martial Arts Association is willing to make an exception to let you take the test, but the president means it must record the official assessment process, both for archiving and to counter any future criticism."
Gu Cheng understood.
This was to prevent anyone from using this matter to criticize the Martial Arts Association and his sister in the future. The president indeed had thought it through thoroughly.
"Alright, we’ll follow the official process for the assessment."
Tan Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.
"For martial arts weapon skills, you can prepare nine types and perform them once, which equates to one to nine ranks. I believe not many ninth-rank masters can perform nine different martial arts."
Many people are proficient in only one, while Tuanzi is proficient in many. Besides, she is still very young and full of potential.
Both Tan Sheng and the provincial martial arts president saw Tuanzi’s potential.
The future belongs to the young, and the development and inheritance of martial arts require young people.
"Besides, martial arts assessments are divided into provincial and national exams, and currently, only the provincial side is willing to break the rules."
Tan Sheng told them they could prepare first, and once ready, the Provincial Martial Arts Association would arrange the assessment. Additionally, the president was already negotiating with the National Martial Arts Association to allow Tuanzi to take the national exam exceptionally.
"If she can obtain the national ninth rank, I believe no one will dare to criticize Miaomiao anymore."
Tan Sheng thought, by then, Miaomiao could participate in more promotional programs and even join various competitions to showcase her talents in the future.
He eagerly anticipated Tuanzi promoting traditional martial arts.
Another day passed, and Gu Che finished a concert and hurried back to Jiang City to participate in an interview program.
After the show, he had to go to other cities.
Gu Cheng took his sister to the TV station to meet him.
After recording the program, Gu Che couldn’t wait to pick up his phone and watch the recorded broadcast.
He had been too busy lately to finish watching the videos his assistant had helped record.
Just then, a soft, childish voice came from nearby, "Second brother!"
Gu Che thought he was hearing things.
Then he heard the sound of ’dada dada’.
Turning his head, he saw a little Tuanzi jump up and directly pounce into his arms.
Gu Che quickly caught her.
"Miaomiao, why are you here?"
Tuanzi smiled with curved eyes, rubbing her chubby cheeks against his.
"I missed you so much, second brother, so I came over."
Gu Che felt all his fatigue fly away.
He maintained a reserved expression, trying not to laugh out loud, tightly pursing his lips, though his ears were actually red.
Tuanzi poked his ear after rubbing cheeks, "Second brother’s ear is red again."
Gu Che cleared his throat a few times, "It’s too hot."
"Is it hot?"
Tuanzi looked at the clothing of people passing by nearby.
At this, Gu Cheng slowly walked over, giving Gu Che a light glance.
Gu Che immediately stood up straight.
"Did you find out from Jin?"
Gu Cheng: "He reported proactively."
Gu Che pouted. However, ever since the brothers opened up to each other, he was not bothered by such behavior. Big brother cared about him.
He reluctantly decided to care about big brother too.
"You look thinner, have you been staying up late again?"
Gu Cheng: "You’ve lost weight, have you been overtraining?"
The two brothers, with one looking serious, the other cold on the outside yet warm inside, were engaged in a not-so-intense debate over ’who was thinner’.
Tuanzi, nestled in Gu Che’s arms, covered her ears in frustration.
"You’re both thin!"
Only she had gained a pound! Only she was hurt!
The three siblings had a meal together, during which the topic of the show "Leisurely Country Life" inevitably came up.
Learning that Gu Wangchao was going to be a guest, Gu Che was a bit surprised but also relieved.
"Wangchao’s cooking skills are great, with him taking care of Miaomiao, I’m at ease."
In comparison, Gu Peihai, the Film Emperor, was indeed clumsy.
He gritted his teeth, "To thank Pei Hai for taking care of Miaomiao, I’ve decided to invite him as one of the guests to sing a song at the last stop of my concert tour."
Tuanzi was excited, cradling her little face.
"Wow, second brother, you’re so nice."
Gu Che slightly tilted his chin, "Gratitude is a natural human feeling."
Tuanzi nodded like a pecking chick, "Yes, yes. Many people can’t do it, but second brother did, second brother is awesome!"
Gu Che: (*￣︶￣)
Gu Cheng hesitated.
How should he explain to his sister that Gu Peihai actually couldn’t carry a tune? Whenever that cousin sang, everyone within a hundred meters would run away.
Is this gratitude or letting Gu Peihai create some black history?
He looked at the corners of his brother’s lips and still didn’t explain.
In the blink of an eye, it was the second episode of "Leisurely Country Life", on Saturday, at seven in the morning, as guests arrived one after another.
Many viewers yawned and opened the live broadcast room.
[Many people must be yawning right now]
[I became smart, sleeping early to wake up on time for the live broadcast]
[Didn’t expect several live shows to improve my schedule]
[I’m looking forward to which guests the second episode will invite]
[Only Mrs. Yun’s group leaked in advance, saying a nephew would come]
[I know, it’s Wei Chuan from Mengkong Entertainment, a very popular singer recently, his masterpieces are... I really like his songs]
[Thanks for the info earlier, searched and listened to a song, it’s really good]
[I quickly followed him]
[Can’t wait for Wei Chuan, will he perform on the show]
In a blink of an eye, the bullet screen was filled with messages about Wei Chuan.
Other viewers: "..." Do they think we’re fools? We’re battle-hardened, constantly fighting against trolls, even a passing dog could spot such obvious trolls!
Many viewers rolled their eyes, not falling for it, and chose the live broadcast room of guests they were interested in.
The show’s staff were doing a simple luggage check.
"Turn in your communication devices to your assistants," Director Wang called out with a megaphone, "Absolutely no food allowed, please abide by the show’s rules."
As soon as he finished, several little kids pouted.
Adults reacted quicker.
Gu Peihai quickly opened a pack of beef jerky, "Miaomiao, eat quickly, once it’s in your stomach, they can’t take it away."
Su Chaomu gobbled down his pudding as well.
Liu Bai, with his back to the camera, discreetly stuffed a meat bun in his mouth.
Wu Yu couldn’t be bothered to eat.
Lin Ci stood obediently by her mother’s side.
The adults handed over the rice, noodles, and frozen meat products they brought.
Director Wang: "..."
