"Don't even think about lying to me. I'm your father. I know exactly what part-time job you are doing." Chen Liyang's tone was calm, but he exuded a majestic aura.
Seeing the look in Chen Liyang's eyes, Zhou Chengdong knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he blushed and lowered his head: "I work part-time in a boxing gym, but I'm not like you said, being a human target."
“Standing there and letting people hit you and not fighting back, what is it if it’s not a human target?
Are you planning to keep it a secret if I don't make the topic clear? "Chen Liyang asked with a cold face, writing his unhappiness on his face.
Zhou Chengdong didn't want Chen Liyang to be unhappy. He raised his head in panic and explained: "I...I didn't mean not to tell you, but you didn't care about me and my brother before."
"So, you're blaming me?"
"No, no, you're fine as you are. I don't want to worry you." Zhou Chengdong shook his head like a rattle, and his honest appearance was like an obedient big wolf dog, which made people want to obey. His fur.
Chen Liyang wasn't really angry with him. To be honest, the original owner had treated them like that before, so he had no right to be angry with him.
He was just worried and distressed that such a young child had to take on responsibilities and obligations that were not his.
"Don't go to that part-time job anymore. Dad can support you!" He couldn't help but raise his hand and touch the boss's furry hair. He hadn't shaved it in a month and it had grown a lot.
When he heard that he was not allowed to go, Zhou Chengdong became a little excited: "That's no good. Not only does this part-time job make a lot of money, but it also provides freedom."
Chen Liyang immediately grimaced: "No matter how much you earn, is your health important? Look how many good areas you have?"
Zhou Chengdong patted his chest carelessly: "Actually, I'm just trying to bluff people. The injuries on my body are not serious at all and they will be gone tomorrow."
"That's not okay. I'm not negotiating with you. If you can't go, you're not allowed to go. I'm still your father now. You have to listen to me." Although these words were very strong, Zhou Chengdong knew that he was caring about him.
If it were Chen Liyang in the past, he wouldn't care what part-time job he had, he would only care about how much he earned.
However, he does this part-time job not only to make money, but also for his dream that he has had since he was a child. He likes martial arts since he was a child.
He even has a martial arts dream, relying on his own skills to punish evil and promote good, and travel around the world.
But this is not ancient times. He can't be a hero, but he still hopes to use his real skills to protect the people he wants to protect.
But this dream is unrealistic for many people, especially poor people like them. He is afraid that if he says it, Chen Liyang will make him give up the idea and study hard.
Looking at the man who was hesitant to speak, Chen Liyang probably guessed what his concerns were: "Are you very interested in martial arts?"
Although he didn't know how Chen Liyang knew so many of his secrets, Zhou Chengdong still nodded honestly: "Yes, I like martial arts very much. I can learn a lot of powerful boxing skills in this part-time job. Just let me go." Well, I promise not to get myself hurt, nor will it affect my studies."
He looked at Chen Liyang pitifully, and it was obvious that he liked him from the bottom of his heart.
Chen Liyang is a person who is easy to be soft-hearted and can't say a word of rejection, but he doesn't want him to learn martial arts through this self-abuse method.
At this point, he told him what he had been hiding in his heart: "Have you ever thought about joining the army? The army will also teach you various boxing techniques. While you continue to improve your strength, you will also Be able to protect your home and country and become a hero admired by others."
In his last life, Zhou Chengdong took the path of a mercenary. Maybe he can become a mercenary king in this life.
Their natures are similar, but their essences are worlds apart, one is good and the other is evil.
He wanted Zhou Chengdong to take the completely opposite path in his previous life, a path of justice.
And among so many professions, he chose the path of mercenary, which shows that he likes to touch guns.
Of course, he is just giving a suggestion. As for the choice, he will not interfere.
This question really bothered Zhou Chengdong.
To be honest, he had never thought about being a soldier. In his eyes, being a soldier was a very sacred thing.
He lives in a stinky ditch, and has a stepfather who is always in the police station. His younger brothers and sisters also need him to support him. This sacred profession is something he will never reach in his life.
But it's different now. Chen Liyang's changes have pulled this mired family into a place of light. They no longer have to worry about whether they have a good meal or not, and whether they can survive tomorrow.
If he could really serve as a soldier, he thought he would be able to trust his younger brothers and sisters in his hands.
"You like it, right?" Seeing Zhou Chengdong didn't speak, Chen Liyang's eyes lit up.
If one day the boss really joins the army, with his talent in this area, it will not be easy to become a special forces king.
"I think as long as you are a man, you will have the dream of being a soldier, right?" Zhou Chengdong said with a blushing face.
Seeing his appearance, Chen Liyang smiled in a low voice, and then responded: "But you are only fifteen years old and still a child, so you are not a man."
"Who said that? I've grown muscles, so why am I not a man? If you don't believe me, look at it!" After saying that, Zhou Chengdong showed off his biceps in front of Chen Liyang.
Although not as prominent as a fitness trainer, you can still see obvious muscles, and the lines are smooth, which is quite ornamental.
"Okay, dad knows that you are a great little man, but dad won't let you continue this part-time job no matter what.
If you want to learn, your father can pay you to take classes, and you will definitely learn faster than if you steal the skills from a teacher. "Chen Liyang no longer talks about joining the army. The current boss is too old to join the army, so it is useless to talk more.
But seeing that he is interested, we can allow him to enter the military academy in the future, or directly join the army for training.
When Zhou Chengdong heard that he was being paid to study, he didn't agree with anything. His family's life had just changed, and the money should not be spent on his personal interests.
If it doesn't work out, he can go to the martial arts studio to do odd jobs. At worst, he won't be paid, and he will be given a meal.
Feeling that this method worked, he agreed without hesitation and said that he would not do this part-time job again.
"Now you are obedient. We are still young. There will be many opportunities to make money in the future. Dad doesn't ask for anything now. He just hopes that you will be safe and sound." Chen Liyang smiled and patted Zhou Chengdong on the shoulder.
He didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but Zhou Chengdong felt that his mouth didn't hurt so much anymore.
He never thought that one day he would have such a heart-to-heart chat with Chen Liyang. This feeling was more comfortable and light than he imagined.
He could feel that Chen Liyang was not chatting with him as a father or an elder, but more like a brother and friend.
Speaking of which, Chen Liyang is only a dozen years older than him. When he gets older, he himself will get older, and he will be more like his equal.
That's why, facing such a young face, he really couldn't call him daddy, he was too shy.
