Chapter 848 Extreme Apocalypse 12
Ruan Chutong had already thought of an answer to this question.
"I guess so. When I was in college, I had a classmate whose family owned a martial arts school. I went to her house a lot and learned some martial arts from her."
Li Xinyan said, "Sister Tong, why didn't you say so before? I thought you were some kind of martial arts prodigy."
"I hadn't practiced for so long that I thought I had forgotten how, but I gradually remembered it by following the training."
Seeing that Ruan Chutong was still sitting on the ground, Li Yanjing walked over and reached out to help her up: "The ground is cold. From now on, you will spar with me every morning."
His previous opponent was Gao Mingcheng, but he didn't perform well and didn't get to practice much.
Now we have a real opponent; only through back-and-forth can we make progress.
“Sure.” Ruan Chutong was a little puzzled by his sudden touch as he pulled her up.
Looking at him, the person still had that expressionless face, with no emotion in his eyes.
She couldn't discern anything wrong with that expressionless face.
Considering that the two are now siblings in a blended family, I realized I was being too sensitive, so I stopped worrying about it.
Li Yanjing sensed her scrutinizing gaze, but he calmly continued drinking his water.
The others didn't pay attention to the two of them; they were all busy practicing.
Ruan Chutong hit the sandbag for another hour, then went to boil water to wash herself, and then went back to her room to take a bath in her spatial dimension.

thump - thump - thump
The iron gate in the stairwell on the 30th floor was knocked on in the middle of the night.
Ruan Chutong was the first to hear it. She immediately put on her down jacket, opened the door, and went out.
Just as I stepped into the living room, I heard the sound of a bedroom door opening behind me.
She turned around and saw Li Yanjing, who was also dressed.
"Brother Li, you heard the sound too?"
"Hmm, I'll go check on you..."
"I'm going too. I won't be able to sleep tonight if I don't see what's going on."
Upon hearing this, Li Yanjing could only nod.
Ever since the iron gate was installed, he hasn't dared to sleep too soundly at night.
Last time, if Ruan Chutong hadn't noticed someone coming up, they wouldn't have heard a thing. This situation was far too passive.
The two didn't wake anyone else for the time being. They lit a candle, opened the door, and went out, only to see someone standing outside the iron gate.
Li Yanjing took a step closer, her expressionless face somewhat intimidating: "What do you do?"
The person outside the door trembled upon hearing this, then stammered, "I...I have something to say."
When he spoke, the two realized that he was still a child, probably around thirteen or fourteen years old.
I didn't see clearly just now, mainly because she was wrapped up so tightly that only her eyes were showing.
"What is it? Tell me," Ruan Chutong said.
Han Lei glanced at the two of them, then lowered his head again: "I overheard Brother Li and his group discussing how to deal with you."
Brother Li is the leader of that gang who has done all sorts of bad things.
Upon hearing this, Ruan Chutong and Li Yanjing exchanged a glance.
"How do you know? How do we know you're not lying to us?"
“I live on the 22nd floor. When I got up to pee in the middle of the night, I heard screams coming from upstairs. I ran up to see what was going on and heard them talking. They even got a gun.”
Seeing that the two remained silent, he was afraid they wouldn't believe him.
His tone became somewhat anxious: "It's true, I'll be damned if I'm lying to you, it'll happen tomorrow night."
How many guns do they have?
"I don't know that, that's all I've heard."
Ruan Chutong glanced at Li Yanjing and saw him nod in agreement.
She asked, "You came all this way to tell us what you want?"
"Can I...can I have something else to eat?"
He had been hungry for two days. His parents had gone out to find food some time ago and had never returned.
Now his team is large, and food is becoming increasingly scarce; they're lucky to get a loaf of bread every three days.
Every day I feel so hungry, weak, and cold that I feel like I can't hold on any longer.
He finally heard some news, but he didn't tell anyone. In the middle of the night, he secretly climbed to the thirtieth floor, thinking he would take a gamble.
Li Yanjing remained silent. He looked at Ruan Chutong, wondering what she thought, since the supplies were all with her.
Ruan Chutong thought for a moment, then took out two small bread rolls from her pocket and threw them out: "Take them, this is your reward for coming to tip you off, that's all."
Han Lei took the items, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.
He opened the package and ate immediately, swallowing both small pieces of bread in one go.
After finishing his meal, he seemed a little unsatisfied, turned around, thanked her, and ran off: "Thank you."
The two returned home, wanting to discuss the matter, but it was too cold in the living room.
Ruan Chutong suggested, "Let's talk in my room."
Her place was the warmest; she even deliberately expelled a wave of cold air before going to sleep.
Li Yanjing nodded and followed her into the room.
As soon as I entered, I smelled a faint fragrance, and I paused slightly in my steps.
He glanced at the person in front of him, then lowered his eyes and continued walking.
Ruan Chutong closed the door, took out a quilt from her spatial storage, and had him wrap himself in it while sitting on the bench at the foot of the bed.
She herself went back to her warm bed and sat down without taking off her coat.
Li Yanjing placed the candle on the bedside table before sitting down, wrapped in the blanket, and asked her, "What do you think about what just happened?"
"It should be the truth; the child wasn't lying."
"I also think I should tell everyone tomorrow to be prepared."
"What do you plan to do with the guy with the gun?" Ruan Chutong wanted to see what he had to say.
If she were to come, the person with the gun wouldn't even have a chance to fire.
"Prepare a few bulletproof shields. I remember we found these once when we went to the police station to collect supplies."
Unfortunately, they didn't find the gun that time; they only found some shields and stun batons.
Ruan Chutong thought for a moment and said, "Yes, I didn't even remember until you mentioned it."
She's received so many things in the past two months that she hasn't really paid much attention to them.
Perhaps in their hearts, they are not as worried about their safety as they are, so they don't care about these kinds of things.
"With the shields providing protection, there's no problem for now, but what about the people?"
For a normal girl like the original owner.
She couldn't show that she wasn't afraid of the person with the gun at all, and that she could calmly offer a solution.
Li Yanjing had an idea: he wanted to seize the gun. "I'll go out early tomorrow night and ambush them from behind to take out the one with the gun."
“It’s too dangerous for you to go alone. If there are several armed men, I’m afraid you won’t be able to handle them. I’ll go with you. I’m pretty good at fighting now.”
Upon hearing this, Li Yanjing looked at her in silence.
Although he didn't say anything, Ruan Chutong felt that he was saying she didn't believe him.
“I don’t doubt you, Brother Li. You’re one of our strongest fighters. What if something happens to you? The others are all inside with shields, they’ll be fine. Let me go help.”
Her tone was firm; with her there, things were less likely to go wrong.
