With that, John hailed a car at the side of the road and prepared to send the woman home.

Soon, the car arrived at Mary District.

In front of the tenth building of Mary District.

A man and a woman stood side by side downstairs.

It was John and the woman who had drunk too much.

John spoke first, “Go up. We have reached your house.”

However, the woman said seductively, “Why? Don’t you want to go up and have a seat? That way, I can have a chance to thank you properly.”

John’s heart pounded at the woman’s words.

John said meekly, “I don’t think that’s necessary, I still have things to do.”

When the woman saw John’s funny expression, the thought in her mind became even more determined.

She pulled John along and said, “You can settle your stuff tomorrow. Just go up and sit for a while. Let’s go, let’s go.”

The woman grabbed John along enthusiastically.

John couldn’t resist the woman’s enthusiasm and followed her upstairs.

The woman lived alone in a house that was less than 50 square meters.

Although it was small, it had everything that was necessary.

A bed, a bathroom, and a kitchen. Just enough for a person living alone.

The woman said to John, “This is my rented apartment. I live alone.

“Not bad, right?

“Go sit over there. I’ll get you some tea.”

With that, the woman didn’t care if John agreed or not and started to make tea.

John sat on the sofa with his legs together and his palms unconsciously rubbed against his thighs. He seemed a little nervous.

John didn’t wait long. At this moment, the woman walked over with a bottle of red wine and two glasses.

She said to John, “Sorry, there are no more tea leaves at home. There’s only this bottle of red wine left. Do you want some?”

John looked at the red wine in the woman’s hand and thought about some of the woman’s actions just now. He seemed to understand something, so he nodded and agreed.

“Sure, let’s drink together then.”

Hearing John’s reply, the woman happily poured him some wine.

Then, the two of them started drinking their wine.

Both of them had a tacit understanding and didn’t speak.

They were both thinking about their own matters and drinking the red wine.

After a while, the woman took the initiative and said to John, “Well, do you have a girlfriend?”

Facing this question, John was unsure how to respond.

He considered for a while before answering, “Yes and no.”

Hearing this, the woman was very surprised. What did this mean?

So she continued to ask John about this.

“I got together with my girlfriend three years ago, but a car accident suddenly happened and she ended up in a vegetative state. Until now, she still hasn’t woken up yet.”

John didn’t avoid the question and told the woman about Alice.

The woman was embarrassed to hear John’s reply, and hastily said to him, “I’m sorry for bringing up your sad past.”

“It’s alright. It’s already been so many years. I’m used to it,” John said lightly.

“Then all these years, it must have been hard for you to solve your biological problems without a girlfriend, right?” The woman suddenly asked this question.

John directly exclaimed ‘what the f*ck’ in his heart.

‘What kind of brain does this woman have? She asked such a question in such a straightforward manner. Where is her reservedness as a girl?’

Although he was puzzled, John answered honestly, “En, indeed, I haven’t done it for three years.”

When the woman heard John’s answer, she felt a little surprised and asked, “How did you endure all these years?”

Before John could answer.

At that moment, the woman had already run to John and directly sat on his lap.

She gazed affectionately at John.

The distance between them was only a few centimeters.

A whiff of fragrance lingered in John’s nose.

John didn’t know what to do and didn’t know where to put his hands.

The woman kissed John without another word.

John shuddered.

It’s been three years.

He had almost forgotten this feeling.

Moments later, their lips parted.

At this moment, John’s heart was pounding rapidly. Then, he took the initiative to kiss the woman.

…

Inside the room.

The two of them were engaged in a frenzied exercise, causing the bed to squeak.

The next morning.

The woman and John woke up.

John looked at the woman in his arms. He didn’t know what to say and felt helpless.

Last night, John had lost his rationality and lost his mind due to his sexual desires. He was like a hungry wolf, demanding for more.

John watched and wanted to say something, but she stopped him.

The woman looked at John and told him, “Don’t worry, I don’t need you to take responsibility. It’s just that I also want it. We’re just taking what we both need.

“Don’t worry. Yesterday was my safe period. You don’t have to worry.”

John was shocked at what the woman had said.

He couldn’t believe that this was something a woman could say.

It was like he was a woman instead and a man said to her thinks things like he’s sorry and couldn’t be responsible to her.

‘Oh my god, I’ve only been in prison for three years. Have all the women in this world become like this? I guess I’m abandoned by the times.’

September 24, 7.30 AM.

John and the woman were eating breakfast.

The woman asked John, “Are you done eating?”

“Yes, I’m done,” John answered.

“If you’re done, then let’s go. I have to go to work too.”

John nodded and asked, “By the way, what’s your name? I haven’t asked you yet.”

The woman shook her head and replied, “It’s just a name. Is there any meaning in knowing my name or not? It’s just a one-night stand between us.”

Upon hearing the woman’s reply, John cursed inwardly.

‘What the f*ck?

‘What the f*ck!

‘What the f*ck!!

‘Is this really what a woman should say? Isn’t this what we men should say?’

John was speechless.

In a dilapidated rental apartment.

John remained seated in front of the battered table.

Returning from the woman’s house, John went straight back to his little rental house.

He used the computer to look at the news online.

It was all about Neil’s accident and the explosion at the Alexander Corporation.

John sneered at the news on his computer.

“Humph. Alexander Corporation, this is just the beginning.”

Then, he closed his laptop.

With a thought, a search engine appeared in front of John.

John opened the special forces body training technique content that he had visited before.

John was about to start his training when a call came in.

It was Bill, telling John that he’d already signed him up for the competition, which would start at 9 AM tomorrow morning.

John didn’t think too much about this.

He began to practice the special forces body training technique.

After a set of basic exercises, John started practicing the second level of the Form-Intention Fist.

“Left foot step forward, body turn to the left, hit towards the head with both fists. Turn to the right, step forward with the right foot. Right fist change into a palm, move it over the head horizontally, left fist to transform into a palm and hit the chest of the opponent.”

“Step forward with the left foot, drag the right leg forward. Turn the right fist into a phoenix eye fist and punch the opponent’s right temple. Stab the left palm

into the opponent’s right rib. The opponent will take a step back with his right foot, with his left foot in front. His right palm moves horizontally to push away my left palm, while his left hand change into a claw to grab my right fist.”
