Faced with Ye Chen's question, Nanako Ito was immediately speechless.
First, Ye Chen was speechless, and then his face turned red and he was ashamed.
Both emotionally and rationally, what Ye Chen said was right. In the final analysis, the whole matter was just his master's wish to get the hammer. Ye Chen did not do anything wrong.
Nanako Ito, who was so ashamed, could only bow to Ye Chen respectfully: "Mr. Ye, I was impulsive. Please forgive me. At the same time, please don't be the same as me."
Ye Chen nodded slightly.
To a certain extent, he also understands Nanako Ito relatively well.
After all, everyone can be objective and impartial when the matter has nothing to do with them, but once they think they have a real interest in it, it is difficult to be absolutely objective.
It's like when other people's children make mistakes, I always hope that they can get enough lessons, but when my own children make mistakes, I always hope that everyone can forgive him and give him another chance.
Yamamoto Kazuki is Ito Nanako’s mentor. The traditional culture of Japan and China are separated by a thin strip of water. The people of both countries pay attention to respecting teachers. Therefore, Ito Nanako’s respect and maintenance of Yamamoto Kazuki is also acceptable.
Understood.
But this is only understandable.
Ye Chen could understand her mood, but he would never change any of his views or decisions because of her.
So, he said calmly: "Miss Ito, since you are also a participant in this competition, you must respect this competition and do not compete passively or quit midway. Otherwise, it will be disrespectful to martial arts."
Ito Nanako said with great dejection: "Mr. Ye, your strength has made me realize what real martial arts is. Compared with you, my martial arts is only at the level of a beginner, and may not even be a beginner's level."
They are far inferior to each other, and even more shameless to continue participating in the competition in front of Your Excellency..."
Ye Chen shook his head: "Martial arts does not necessarily mean competing with others. It is not only a sport, but also a culture and spirit. Are people with poor strength not qualified to learn martial arts? Is it just that?
Because your entrance level is much lower than mine, can you give up this game with peace of mind?"
Ye Chen paused for a moment, then said in a more serious tone: "If this is really the case, then I can only say that you don't love martial arts at all. What you love is nothing more than a ranking. When
When you think your ranking is high, you love martial arts; when you feel your ranking is low, you betray martial arts! In the final analysis, you are not a loyal martial artist at all!"
Ito Nanako blurted out with a hurried expression: "No, that's not the case! I love martial arts! I am also a loyal warrior! I just... I just..."
Ye Chen asked sharply: "What are you?!"
Ito Nanako was very nervous by his question, and immediately lowered her head in shame, gave up defending herself, and whispered: "Mr. Ye, you are right... I was wrong...
...I shouldn’t give up the game at this time! I shouldn’t betray martial arts at this time!”
Ye Chen hummed: "Have a good game. I also hope that Aoxue can meet you in the finals."
Nanako Ito's eyes suddenly became extremely determined, and she nodded seriously and said, "I understand, Mr. Ye! Don't worry, I will definitely fight to the finals! Have a good competition with your disciple!"
Ye Chen waved his hand: "Aoxue is not my apprentice, she is my friend, or strictly speaking, she is my friend's daughter. I am just temporarily her coach these days to give her some pointers.
."
Nanako Ito asked in surprise: "Mr. Ye, aren't you a professional coach?"
Ye Chen smiled and said: "Of course not, I'm just an unemployed vagrant without any occupation."
"Vagrant?"
Nanako Ito's face was filled with shock and disbelief.
