Chapter 237: Chapter 237 I Will Give You An Explanation
Chen Ke had just pushed open the door when he felt a burst of cool air. The basement had the air conditioning on, and the temperature was much cooler than above ground.
The basement space was large, and in the past, it might have been used as a storage room. But now it had been tidied up into a place fit for living. The environment couldn’t be said to be very good, but at least there were ample living supplies, and it was sufficiently concealed—a very safe haven.
The entire room was about more than 200 square meters. On the left side, there were workout machines like treadmills and barbells, and on the right, a television was mounted on the wall. The small coffee table and desk were piled with snacks and drinks, and opposite the television, there was a folding sofa, with even a PS3 on the floor.
The screen was showing Tekken 5; it seemed Lucina really liked playing this game.
Lucina was standing with her back to Chen Ke. Her dark brown, slightly curly, long hair was tied at the back of her head, wet with sweat and sticking to her back. Lucina was wearing a black tank top and red boxing shorts, barefooted, with her hands gripping a boxing bag, bending her head down as she rested.
Chen Ke gently closed the door, then slowly approached Lucina. The room’s lighting came entirely from several daylight lamps on the ceiling, and the exhaust fans on the wall were blowing continuously.
Even with the air conditioning on, Lucina was covered in sweat from her high-intensity workout.
The sweat flowed down her rounded shoulders, traced the perfect curves of her arm muscles, gathered into droplets at her elbows, and fell to the ground. The back of her black tank top was soaked in a large patch.
“Has Chen Ke not returned the call yet, Dad?” Lucina asked, not looking behind her, her voice tinged with disappointment.
“He told me to come down directly…” Chen Ke said quietly.
Lucina’s body trembled, but she did not turn around; instead, she threw her fists up again, resuming her violent strikes against the punching bag.
“It looks like you’ve recovered well… your strength seems as great as before…” Chen Ke observed.
Without a word, Lucina kept hitting the bag, although her blows seemed to lighten.
