Stuck in a Chinese novel

"Let me begin by saying that I terribly apologize for what I have done the last month. There are some circumstances that I cannot let you know yet because no confirmation from the doctor has been made." Wei Jun finished his explanation but he kept it as brief as ever. He was going to let them come up with their own explanations.

"The second agenda, if any of you wants to leave for my offensive acts, you won't be stopped. I will properly compensate you and also null the contract so none of you have to pay the contract breach fee." Wei Jun once again said and just waited for the others to begin whatever they had on their minds.

"Is it true?" Xia Lu asked, the others just remained quiet.

"What is?" Wei Jun asked.

"That you have a split personality." Xia Lu elaborated.

"Like I said, nothing has been confirmed. That is up to the doctors to decide," Wei Jun said but then added, "But I will say that I wasn't conscious during my actions of the last month."

Xia Lu looked at him with narrowed eyes and said, "How many times?"

"How many times what?" Wei Jun asked.

"How many times did we kiss under that rubble?" Xia Lu once again elaborated.

"Eight times." Wei Jun replied without a hitch. The others looked at each other with wide eyes but none of them dared to say a word.

Wei Jun and Xia Lu looked at each other for about a minute, the staring contest won by Wei Jun who didn't blink. Xia Ly sighed and said, "I'm not leaving. I don't know about the rest."

[Translation: I'm not leaving but I'm not forgiving you for what happened as well. Work your way into apologizing to me]

'Shut up' Wei Jun said and turned to the rest of them.

"I'm not leaving either, boss. I'm a bit angry that you touched Quan Kui, and I won't say that I will forgive you easily either. But if what you say is true, you deserve a chance." Xiao Heiling said, Zhan Yi, nodding along.

"Get up, both of you." Wei Jun said as he also stood up. He moved to the side of the sofas, in an open space. Xiao Heiling and Zhan Yi did the same and came to stand in front of Wei Jun.

Wei Jun raised his hand and said, "Five hits each."

"Both of you can hit me five times each." Wei Jun said, leaving everyone in the room stunned.

"But…" Xiao Heiling was about to complain when Zhan Yi punched Wei Jun in the face with the full force of his Qi, not pushing Wei Jun even slightly. Even his facial expression didn't change. It wasn't so that Wei Jun had used Qi armament or anything, he was just that strong.

"Fu*k!!!" Zhan Yi grabbed his hand and began to yell in pain. "What the hell are you made of?!" He asked as his hand hurt like hell. Quan Ki stood up and began to examine the hand that was fractured from three different joints.

"You're just weak," Wei Jun didn't care if he was being blunt.

"Hell of a way to apologize!" Quan Li yelled at Wei Jun as well. Wei Jun's eye twitched but he held it in.

'Just wait until your contract's permanent. I will make you run around the city.' Wei Jun vowed and said, "You wanna hit me four more times?"

"NO!" Zhan Yi yelled as his hand was killing him.

Wei Jun sighed and threw a healing pill at Quan Li who caught it and hurriedly fed it to Zhan Yi. His pain disappeared instantly and his hand mended itself back to its prime condition.

"You have more of them?" Zhan Yi asked.

"No." Wei Jun replied.

"Then I will keep my four hits when I become stronger," Zhan Yi said. Wei Jun turned his head to Xiao Heiling who was slightly sweating at what had happened just yet. He stammered and said, "I will only hit you if Quan Kui didn't forgive you."

"I forgive you, boss! Just don't break his hand." Quan Kui hurriedly came to Xiao Heiling's rescue and said.

"What do you take me for?" Wei Jun asked.

"A workout maniac," Xiao Heiling said. Wei Jun snapped his neck, looking at him with a threat in his eyes. Xiao Heling and Quan Kui both jumped back, hugging each other tightly.

"No meeting today. Everyone to the gym." Wei Jun said as he left the room.

In the room, everyone turned to look at the couple who timidly responded, "What? He's scary."

"I just hope he's okay," Xia Lu's cold eyes were gone, replaced by a worried demeanor that she hadn't shown the entire time since she heard about Wei Jun's condition from Lin Ruan.

"Umm… sister Xia, can't you ask him not to do it today? He will kill us in the gym?" Quan Li timidly asked. The other three also looked at her with sparkling eyes but she didn't play mommy this time.

She sighed and said, "Let's do what he says for now."

The others were deflated but Xia Lu knew she wouldn't be able to do anything.

*************

"Today," Wei Jun began as the actor's team lined up in front of him, dressed in gym clothes, while Wei Jun himself was also wearing loose trousers and a shirt that outlined his toned muscles.

The others tensed at that word but Wei Jun continued regardless, "We will be learning how to throw a punch."

Wei Jun looked at Zhan Yi and said, "I would humiliate you by saying that you hit like a girl but since there are girls among us, I will change that word to sissy. You hit like a womanly man."

Zhan Yi lowered his head. Wei Jun continued, "It might be my fault anyway. I should have at least taught you how to throw a punch but I figured you would know at least that much."

Wei Jun spread his legs and said, "The secret to a good punch, any type of punch, a straight, hook, jab, or anything else, the secret is the foundation. If your legs aren't firmly planted and you don't exert a similar amount of momentum even when your legs aren't on the ground, your punch becomes ineffective."

Wei Jun punched, his arm straight, other than his shoulder, no other part of his body moved. However, the others felt a wave of air hit them as his punch created that much force.

"The repercussions of a careless punch start from hand and forearm dislocation to the shoulder dislocation. In worse scenarios, if not enough momentum is obtained, the hand and wrist can break as well." Wei Jun stated the warnings and began to guide them on how to punch properly.

He had Lao Chen prepare wooden figurines for them and they began to punch them. their hands weren't doing so well, since hitting wood figurines scraped the skin on their fingers.

Xia Lu bit her lip as blood began to be imprinted on the wooden figure due to the injuries on her fingers. But she didn't stop. Nor did the others. It would have been easier for Quan Li and Zhan Yi since they were cultivators but cultivators of the Qi sense realm were normal people without Qi and Wei Jun had blocked their Qi nerves.

The morning turned to noon, noon to afternoon, afternoon to evening. When it was six pm, Wei Jun finally took mercy on them and threw five pills at Lao Chen and said, "Give them each after five hours. Let them get used to this pain first."

Wei Jun left because he had a ceremony to attend of some kind. Lin Ruan was kind enough to tell him that it would begin at eleven but he had to be ready by eight and she would pick him up since he didn't know where it was and the distance alone was quite a bit.

Wei Jun didn't know what this was about but he was sure as hell curious.

[I think it would do you well to join a sect]

'Why?' Wei Jun asked.

[If you can prove to be a valuable asset]

[The sect would invest in you]

[Grant you many elixirs]

'Would they help me?' Wei Jun asked. Wei Jun didn't practice any normal cultivation techniques. His Qi was purer than others and he wanted to know if any other elixir than the shop elixirs would help him.

[If normally, one pill would raise one point of your Qi]

[Then you might have to consume ten to increase one point]

[But for you, that one point is worth more than 20 points for others]

[And that is counting that the cultivation technique you practice is just B rank]

[Just imagine the difference if you were to practice an SSS rank cultivation technique]

'Then why would I join a sect?' Wei Jun questioned.

[Because only a sect can afford to shower you with elixirs]

[Why not juice them until you can?]

Wei Jun nodded at the system's suggestion but didn't make any promises. Usually, such an act meant subservience and Wei Jun was anything but a subordinate.
