Chapter 280: Broke each and every rule


    Xoan dialed the sports club manager''s number and asked, "Where are the attendees? Why is it empty?" But that wasn''t his main reason for the call.


    "CEO West, the whole club is blocked for the public. You are allowed because you are a shareholder."


    Xoan was impressed to know n was capable of that, "Who is in the club? Where are they?"


    "The manager respectfully replied, "CEO West, they are in the fencing hall. They have asked forplete privacy so I guess, it wouldn''t be appropriate to meet and greet."


    Xoan''s lips sinisterly tilted up, "Alright" He hung up the call and eyed Xin, "Xin, I will fence first and join you quickly."


    Xin didn''t want him to go against n, "Xoa, we hardly got to know anything about President Morgan. It''s not the right idea."


    Xoan didn''t agree with him, "We didn''t get to know because there is nothing to know."


    Xin contradicted him, "n Morgan is too mysterious. He is low profile doesn''t mean he is an easy one."


    Xoan changed clothes as he bobbed his head repeating Xin''s old lines, "Yeah yeah, He isn''t naive and has strong force behind him. Staying low doesn''t mean weak. h h h... Come on, I''m not a kid."


    Xin sighed and let him go reluctantly. He too went to the hall but went to the audience section on a higher floor and he stood in an invisible area.


    Xoan and Xin were expecting highly skilled maneuvers by n but seeing them, two felt like they were school kids ying with foil fences.


    n and Aria were in masks and helmets while Xoan entered holding the helmet in hand.


    "President Morgan, What''s the fun in ying with..." He saw the body structure of the opposite yer and continued, "... a noob female yer?"


    Instinctively, n stood next to Aria keeping his hand on her back in a protective stance.


    Aria frowned seeing the third wheel on their date. She didn''t open her helmet and heard him say <em>''noob''</em> to her.


    n opened his helmet with a mask and tousled his hair which even paused Xoan''s action.


    "What made you assume yourself as an expert?"


    Then n turned to Aria, "Shall we leave? Due to the rainy season, annoying flies increase after the sunset."


    Aria smiled under the mask while Xoan grounded his teeth. He couldn''t agree nor deny what n said.


    "I see, President Morgan turned out to be a coward."


    "At least, I''m not self-obsessed and self-acimed."


    Xin was too far to hear them but he could say n was unfazed while Xoan was pissed off even though he was expressionless.


    Xoan hated n''s guts. "Then why don''t you prove it?"


    n smirked, "And why do you think I will listen to your crap?"


    Xoan wasn''t ready to lose, "So you are just a man of words."


    Aria turned to n to listen to his counter. n was watching her while he responded, "You are a man of a nuisance."


    Aria couldn''t control and burst intoughter pissing off Xoan more. She patted n''s arm and spoke to Xoan, "Well, Mister, whoever you are..."


    Xoan enraged instantly hearing her and identified her voice, she was the same girl who rejected to work with hispany.


    "How about facing <strong>A Noob</strong> yer? When you win, I will convince n to y against you. Deal?"


    Aria purposefully mentioned <em>''when''</em> instead of <em>''if''</em> to let his hopes up. When they had collected Xoan''s information, she knew he was a good fencing opponent so she wanted to try.


    "Honey!"


    Aria''s response was indicative which n understood, "I will lose pridefully as <em><strong>A Noob</strong></em>. Watch me..."


    Xoan had seen her using the left hand and moving like a snail. ording to him, a noob was an overstatement for her and he had almost thought he looked better than n for her hence he epted.


    "Alright."


    Aria cloyed n while Xoan wore the helmet in perplex. <em>''Why the hell am I ying against a little girl now?''</em>


    Anyway, his n was to win over n and deal with his arrogance.


    Xin wasn''t sure what was going on. n was worried sick of her right palm.


    Aria passed her foil fence to the right hand and stood in defense position but Xoan thought that she didn''t know anything and gestured to her to attack with his left hand.


    Aria took two steps and attacked which Xoan blocked easily.


    Xin''s lips twitched seeing Xoan stand without foil in the next second. Aria caught Xin''s foil she had tossed away from his grip.


    Xoan''s hands were still in the air when he saw her catch the fence. He tried to remember what she just did.


    Aria had moved her foil around and tossed his foil up. His wrist had turned and he lost the grip on it.


    <em>''Noob?''</em> Xoan felt it was a tight p on his face and her initiation was actually a sarcastic remark.


    Aria tossed the fence at him and cued him to attack which provoked Xoan seeing her stand casually.


    Xin was smiling seeing Xoan frustrated for losing to a girl in a mere three seconds.


    Xoan started attacking fiercely which Aria matched easily. Xoan was taller so his hands were longer than her which was negative to Aria but she was flexible and was escaping from him easily by scoring points.


    When it got intense, Aria started to feel the pain from her palm but Xoan broke the rules and flung the fence on her arm.


    n grunted going towards them, "Xoan West."


    Xin frowned.


    He knew if Xoan couldn''t win straight, he would do it by hook or by crook. If the opponent was a man, he wouldn''t have cared but he hated Xoan attacking a woman for the victory in the mere game.


    Aria raised her left hand at n to stop him. n knew what she was going to do but he didn''t like her stubbornness when her right-hand palm wasn''t healed yet.


    He had watched her y exceptionally more than his expectation so he trusted her abilities but her palm...


    Aria knew to y by rules but she was taught to fight without rules. "Xoan West, you don''t know how to keep things clean. Isn''t it?"


    Xoan smirked under the helmet without caring and saw her cue to attack him. He lunged to attack but Aria spun aside and hit his torso.


    He regained and attacked but Aria broke each and every rule of the game while she saved herself from each strike.


    n chuckled seeing her y Xoan like a mouse while she looked like white wild cat jumping, sliding, stretching, and attacking him fiercely.


    He recorded the video of them to send it to Vince Fang who would be happy about his little apprentice.


    Xin felt bad for Xoan being prey for the little woman. He really liked how the little woman yed following rules and without following the rules.
