166: Chapter 124, Rumored Girlfriend!
“What have you and Phoenix done exactly?
You haven’t slept together, have you?”
Tang Fei widened his eyes and looked at Sheng Xinhua, “Mr.
Sheng, how can you ask such a question?”
You are a professor at the Imperial First Military Academy, a well-known literature professor, how can you discuss such inappropriate topics with your own students?
“Why can’t I ask?
We’re all adults here, what’s there that can’t be said?” Sheng Xinhua said boldly.
Sheng Xinhua didn’t go ho last night; she stayed overnight at the Imperial Palace and slept with Phoenix.
They drank a lot and talked a lot.
She could feel Phoenix’s affection and care for this guy and knew that she was determined to pursue a future together.
That path was hard and dangerous.
So, she decided to go all out and help them till the end.
To help shift the focus of public opinion and the eyes of the public…
Especially today, right after the completion ceremony banquet, was a critical ti when everyone was discussing heatedly.
She initially thought of doing the things they had done, so the public and dia would naturally shift their attention to her presence.
But, if those two had actually slept together…
Then she would have spoken too soon.
“According to the laws of the Empire, you only co of age at seventeen…
I’m not an adult yet,” Tang Fei said.
“You are different, you look mature,” Sheng Xinhua glanced at Tang Fei and said.
In fact, Tang Fei didn’t look mature; it was his ntality that was mature.
When with Tang Fei, Sheng Xinhua always found it hard to see him as a typical teenager; he seed like an old fox who had lived for decades…
He lacked the naivety, passion, brightness, energy, and positivity typical of young people, and the curiosity about the people and the world around him.
He was cunning, cowardly, shaless, petty, never willing to be on the losing end, always eager to take advantage…
Ah, never mind, since her best friend liked him, she should be more tolerant and less realistically critical.
“We haven’t slept together,” Tang Fei spoke up, “just slept on the sa chair…”
Sheng Xinhua gasped, “Do young people play so boldly?
Even on a chair?”
“What are you thinking?” Tang Fei said annoyed, “I ant we slept lying on the sa chair…”
“That’s what I ant too.”
“I ant legitimately sleeping.”
“Sleeping has a legitimate type?” Sheng Xinhua retorted.
“…”
“Okay, I understand,” Sheng Xinhua realized what Tang Fei was trying to say, “You an to tell , you two just lay on the sa chair under a blanket purely chatting…”
“Actually, we didn’t talk for long, after the fight, everyone was too tired and fell asleep quickly.”
“No need to explain anymore, the imagery is getting stronger,” Sheng Xinhua said displeased, “Co on, let’s go shopping.”
“Why go shopping?” Tang Fei asked.
“To buy clothes.
Aren’t all your clothes bought by Phoenix?”
“Yes, I already have so many clothes, why buy more?
Why not buy so for Little Fatty?
He doesn’t have as many clothes as …”
“I can’t buy his sizes,” Sheng Xinhua refused bluntly, “Besides, what does buying him clothes count for?”
“Phoenix bought them for him.
Didn’t you say you wanted to do everything you and Phoenix did together?
That should include this too, right?”
“I’m starting to regret this,” Sheng Xinhua wore a despondent expression.
Under Sheng Xinhua’s lead, Tang Fei was dragged into her car.
The two rushed to the surrounding malls, Sheng Xinhua bought him clothes, shoes, ties, belts, electronic gadgets…
Then they specifically visited the trendiest viral café in the downtown.
“Hey, isn’t that Tang Fei?” soone pointed at Tang Fei and asked their companion.
“Should be, right?
Looks a lot like Tang Fei…”
“That’s him, I paid to watch his jungle combat videos…
even if he turned to ashes, I could recognize him…”
“The woman with him, who is she?
So pretty…
weren’t the rumors about him dating our princess?”
“That’s fake for sure, how could the princess date him?
Even if he was outstanding…
the princess would also choose soone of equal social status…”
“I like this mature lady style…
so flavorful, hehehe…”
“Stop he-ing, wipe off your drool…”
——
Tang Fei examined the black liquid in his cup, “Is this coffee?”
“Never had it before?” Sheng Xinhua stirred the sugar and milk in her cup with a golden spoon and asked.
“No,” Tang Fei shook his head.
He had never had coffee in Old Land, and since arriving at New Star, he didn’t get the chance.
Phoenix had once said she’d treat him to coffee, but then they ran into that woman from the Yan family causing trouble…
“Take a sip and see if you’re used to it.”
Tang Fei took a big gulp from his coffee cup, and a bitter taste of herbal dicine flooded his mouth.
Tang Fei forcibly swallowed it, then said to Sheng Xinhua, “I’m not used to it, it’s both bitter and astringent.
I still prefer cola.”
“You should learn to enjoy its bitterness and astringency,” Sheng Xinhua said.
“The bitterness leads to a sweet aftertaste, and the astringency makes it even sweeter, allowing you to more clearly taste the fruitiness it carries…”
“I can’t enjoy it, my life is much bitterer than this,” Tang Fei said.
“I just like drinking sothing sweet.
Otherwise, I couldn’t get through the days.”
“…”
At that mont, two young girls ca over and asked Tang Fei, “Excuse , are you Tang Fei?”
Tang Fei looked at them warily, on high alert, with the Dog Leg Knife on his waist possibly being summoned at any mont.
He asked, “Who are you?”
He didn’t have many friends on New Star and knew very few people.
For these two girls to brazenly inquire about his identity, they must be either villains or thieves, possibly female assassins sent by so organization…
“We are all Tang Fei’s fans,” one of the long-haired girls said excitedly.
“Tang Fei’s fans?” Tang Fei turned to Sheng Xinhua and asked, “What is that?”
“Your fan club…
Don’t you know?” The round-faced girl asked with a puzzled expression.
She began to doubt if she had recognized the wrong person.
“Fan club?” Tang Fei looked at them in surprise and said, “I have a fan club?”
He knew what a fan club was because he and Little Fatty watched various TV shows and news daily to understand this new world.
But aren’t those only for celebrities and famous people?
What did that have to do with him?
“Yes, our Tang Fei’s fan group already has over two million mbers now, and it’s growing rapidly every day…” The long-haired girl, convinced that this was Tang Fei, said regretfully, “I can’t believe you didn’t even know about this organization…
or what we’ve done for you…”
Tang Fei looked at the girl seriously and asked, “Done what?”
“…”
“Tang Fei, can we take a picture with you?” the round-faced girl asked.
“No problem,” Tang Fei hesitated slightly but nodded in agreent.
Although he didn’t know he had a fan club, he was still very pleased to find out he did.
He felt his stature had grown considerably in front of Sheng Xinhua—who could say they had a fan club?
So, the girl handed her phone to Sheng Xinhua and asked her to help them take several photos.
After taking a few photos with Tang Fei, they turned their attention to Sheng Xinhua and asked, “Sister, you are so pretty.
Can we take a picture with you?”
“Of course,” Sheng Xinhua smiled with her eyes squinting.
With these young fans’ help, her tasks would be much easier.
Under the girls’ direction, Tang Fei then held up the phone to help them take quite a few pictures.
Afterward, the girls looked displeased.
“How co the photos are so blurry?
We can’t even tell who is who…”
“Oh my, you made my face look so big…
The cara was almost poking into my nostrils…”
“Let’s retake them, the photos are really ugly…”
——
So, they asked a waitress at the café to help them take a bunch of photos.
This ti the girls were quite satisfied, each of them endlessly praising the photos:
“Wow, so pretty, sister is too beautiful…”
“You all are very cute too…so young and lovely, sister is envious of you…”
“This photo looks so artistic, it feels very textured, I’m going to save it as my screensaver…”
—–
“Are you not going to post these group photos online?” Sheng Xinhua was ostensibly questioning them but actually ‘reminding’ them.
The two girls were taken aback and asked, “Sister, can we post them online?”
Sheng Xinhua pretended to hesitate, pondered for a mont, and said, “If you’d like to…
I have no problem with it.”
“Aweso, thank you, sister.
You’re beautiful and kind, loved and cherished.”
“Sister, what’s your relationship with Tang Fei?
Aren’t you, girlfriend and boyfriend?”
“You guess,” Sheng Xinhua gave an ambiguous answer.
“Wow…”
The two girls exchanged glances, imdiately imagining the misleading answer Sheng Xinhua had hinted at:
“I knew they were girlfriend and boyfriend…”
After the two girls left, the café gradually had a few more people coming over to take photos and so requested paper for Tang Fei to sign his autograph.
It was the first ti Tang Fei experienced the thrill of being famous…
Before, he always doubted whether he was really living like a human.
Once things quieted down around him, Tang Fei said to Sheng Xinhua, “Today counts as exceeding the mission, doesn’t it?”
“Definitely,” Sheng Xinhua smiled with squinted eyes, like a cunning fox.
“With the help of your fans, it’s much easier for people to know about , your rumored girlfriend…”
The young girls indeed didn’t disappoint Sheng Xinhua, for as they were about to leave the café after finishing their coffee, their photos with Tang Fei and Sheng Xinhua already appeared on the largest star network website in the Phoenix Empire.
“Today at the café, I ran into Tang Fei and his girlfriend.
The lady is kind-hearted and gorgeous, loved and cherished.”
Below these words, there were photos of them with Tang Fei and Sheng Xinhua.
