The Urban Dao Child. Chapter 34
Advertisement
The night was calm, and Yang Dao slept leaning on Feng Yun's shoulder. The boy had finally opened up to Feng Yun. Last night they talked about a lot of things, from incidents in childhood to future aspirations. Feng Yun also talked about her initial struggle and how she took a bold gamble and set-up her own company.
They were talking as they played a popular game on a gaming console. The standby staff in the courtyard mansion was so feeling like they are in a dream. Usually, Feng Yun would be so cold that they would shiver at the thought of her. Yet to this young boy, she was so warm. Yang Dao was also a candy to the female staff, though they did not dare to be too blatant in their acts.
Unknowingly the two people fell asleep leaning against each other. The staff approached Feng Yun holding a quilt. Feng Yun opened her eyes, giving a fright to the staff. The staff said, "Madam, quilt if you need."
Feng Yun spoke in a hushed voice, "Put it on the side and do not disturb again." she deliberately lowered her voice as to not Yang Dao's sleep. The maid nodded and after putting the quilt on the side, she left. Feng Yun glanced at Yang Dao when she found that he was not awake, she herself got some squint time.
At Feng Yun's level, sleeping at night was not required. She could stay awake for a week if need be, and even then she will only feel slightly exhausted. But to keep up the facade that she was just a normal human being and not to kill her employees with extra work, she had to close the shop every day. Yang Dao was just a kid. He had a very busy day. Squeezed out his physical potential on the ruby mountain climb. Then dealt with classes, took a practice run in the evening. After coming here, he cooked and played with Feng Yun.

He was exhausted and fell asleep as he was talking to Feng Yun. The cold CEO did not budge at all and allowed the boy to rest. As for the quilt, that was unnecessary. Yang Dao was always comfortable. (Cold never bothered him anyway.) The night passed slowly, and the sun shone on the eastern horizon.
Yang Dao woke up sharply at six with his bio-clock. He stood up and stretched his body lazily. Then he looked around as he rubbed his eyes. He saw Feng Yun sitting on the couch beside him, and she was smiling at him. He recalled how he fell asleep on the couch so he spoke, "Good morning, sister Yun."
Feng Yun smiled and replied softly, "Good morning, young Master."
Yang Dao said, "Sister Yun, can you tell me where is the washroom?" Feng Yun pointed at the door on the left side of the room and said, "There. You can use that, although it is a guest washroom, I never have guests here."
Yang Dao did not mind and under the strong pressure coming from his bowels he rushed in like a cheetah. Feng Yun also got up and left to freshen up herself. After 10 minutes, Yang Dao came out of the washroom looking fresh and energetic. He then looked around but Feng Yun was not there, but he spotted a cute maid. He spoke politely, "Excuse me, can you tell me if there is a gym in the mansion?"
The maid was startled and then quickly responded. She used sign language to interact. With the movement of her hands, Yang Dao understood she cannot speak. He became upset but then he nodded and also used sign language to communicate with her. The maid was surprised and then joyful to see a distinguished guest of the house communicating with her in the same language. She told him that her name is Lisa, and she was born with this ailment. Yet After completing her education Feng Yun hired her as the housekeeping staff.

Yang Dao nodded and kept on communicating with as Lisa led him to the gymnasium. Yang Dao thanked her for the help and entered the gym. He did some warm-up and then he did some weight training, cardio, and leg work. His workout routine was very balanced. Feng Yun came in when he was doing heavy squats. She nodded as she looked at Yang Dao's form and effort. She said to him, "Young Master, come I will teach you something, that will help you in the future."
Yang Dao nodded and dropped the heavy barbell on his shoulders carefully. Then he walked up to Feng Yun. Feng Yun pointed at the mirror-ed wall and said, "You look in the mirror and follow my moments."
Yang Dao nodded and followed her instructions to the word. Feng Yun spoke, "The sparkling light particles you perceived last night are called, source particles. These particles are the source of energy an element contains within itself. In the future, after you manipulate the elements, you will need to absorb these particles into yourself. They will provide you with energy, and elemental boost. Elemental boosts are Wind gives you speed, Earth gives you strength, Fire gives you ferocity and Water gives you life."
She paused as she started moving her hands and feet slowly and gracefully. Yang Dao followed her movements as Feng Yun continued speaking, "I will explain the boosts to you when you achieve that step."
Yang dao nodded and kept copying her movements. Feng Yun slightly nodded when she saw the firmness in his eyes. The two people kept on it for about half an hour until the gorgeous lady said, "Young Master, let's stop here for now. We need to go to work. You told me we will receive guests today."
Yang Dao nodded and spoke, "Not guests, potential business partners." at the end of this sentence, a smirk appeared on his lips. Feng Yun was confused but asked little. She also wanted to see how Yang Dao would do to the so-called rich and big people.
