「The next day.」
In the faculty office.
"Teacher Zhang, I talked to Lin Feng's roommate yesterday," Han Wen said. "He told
Lin Feng moved out half a month ago and now lives in the sa neighborhood as you. Do you ever run into him there?"
Lin Feng's guess was correct. So much for Liu Bo's so-called masterful cover-up; he sold
out after all!
Zhang Yuxi was grading assignnts when she heard Han Wen's voice, and her brow imdiately furrowed.
"I... I haven't seen him..."
Han Wen nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this. "I heard that student, Lin Feng, is quite a loner, so it's probably normal that you haven't seen him." As she spoke, she seed to be rationalizing it to herself.
Standing beside them, Tang Xiufang chid in, "Lin Feng usually gets very good grades. I just hope he doesn't fail his exams this ti."
Zhang Yuxi nodded, feeling a pang of guilt. If it weren't for him taking care of the four babies, why would anyone ever think he was a loner?
「Evening.」
Zhang Yuxi returned ho to find dinner ready. In the babies' room, Lin Feng was changing a diaper and was currently at a standstill with their third daughter, who was resisting, unwilling to let him touch her little bottom.
Helpless, Lin Feng had to settle for the next best thing and flipped her over. He pulled out a fresh diaper, lifted her tiny legs, and gently put it on. Throughout the entire process, he was extrely careful, afraid of hurting her. The third baby didn't cry or fuss, simply giggling foolishly as if she wanted to play.
Just then, Lin Feng turned his head and saw Zhang Yuxi watching him tenderly from behind him.
"Honey, you're back?"
The sight of his handso face still made Zhang Yuxi's heart flutter. Shaking her head to regain her composure, she asked softly, "Honey, does it bother you, being a stay-at-ho dad?" She had wanted to ask this question for a long ti but had never found the right mont.
Hearing this, Lin Feng knew she must be overthinking things again. "What is there to be bothered about? I couldn't be happier to be with the babies every day!"
He walked up to her, took her hand firmly, and changed the subject. "Didn't you say your final exams are in a few days? How about you tutor
tonight?"
Zhang Yuxi nodded vigorously. Whether out of guilt or her sense of duty as a teacher, she could not let Lin Feng fail.
After dinner, while Lin Feng washed the dishes in the kitchen, Zhang Yuxi rummaged through the living room, searching for study materials. Once the babies were asleep, the two headed to the living room to prepare for Lin Feng's special pre-exam training.
Zhang Yuxi stood before the television, putting on the air of a schoolteacher. She demanded that from this mont on, Lin Feng was not to treat her as his wife, but as his instructor.
Lin Feng just smiled. "Alright, Teacher Zhang!"
Chard by his smile, Zhang Yuxi coughed lightly. "Then let's begin."
Perhaps it was due to the Marrow Cleansing Pill, but Lin Feng felt his mind had beco exceptionally sharp, and his mory was astonishing. He only needed to glance at sothing once to morize it. As for the problems that required formulas, he was incredibly quick, instantly grasping the thod to solve them. In less than half an hour, Lin Feng had completed two entire practice exams. When he checked the answers, he had only made two mistakes.
Zhang Yuxi was completely stunned.
"Honey, you're truly amazing!" she exclaid.
"Heh, of course. Who do you think your husband is?" Lin Feng said, raising his head proudly.
Zhang Yuxi rolled her eyes and tapped him on the head. "Alright, alright, I know you're smart!"
Lin Feng glanced at the ti; it was almost midnight.
"Honey, let's go to bed," he suggested.
As they were getting into the bedroom, Lin Feng suddenly rembered sothing and hurried back out. He quickly returned with a hand warr.
"Here, this is for you!"
Moved by the gesture, Zhang Yuxi felt tears welling up in her eyes. "Honey, you're so good to ... I keep thinking, what would I do if one day you stopped loving ?"
Lin Feng leaned in, held her tightly, and whispered, "What are you thinking about? I'll always be with you!"
"No one can predict the future..." Zhang Yuxi muttered wistfully.
Lin Feng just held her tighter without another word. He knew that in that mont, an embrace was more real and reassuring than any promise he could make.
...
「Three days later.」
Examination week arrived as scheduled. As they had agreed, Zhang Yuxi took leave from work to stay ho with the babies, while Lin Feng went to school for his exams. University final exams weren't like those in high school, which were over in just two days. Because different subjects had different course schedules, the exam period often stretched for as long as two weeks.
After saying goodbye to Zhang Yuxi, Lin Feng headed to school alone. The mont he stepped through the gates, he attracted the attention of countless students.
"Wow, that guy is so handso!"
"Yeah! When did our school get such a good-looking student?"
"He looks familiar... isn't he from the Chinese Departnt? What was his na again?" Th??s content belongs to NoveI~Fire
"I think he's Lin Feng. Li Yaoyao, our departnt beauty, even chased after him!"
"I want to go after him too! I want to kiss him and hug him and lift him high..."
"Stop dreaming. He wasn't even interested in the departnt beauty. What makes you think he'd be interested in you?"
"..."
Upon arriving on campus, Lin Feng's chiseled features instantly attracted the attention of nurous female students. They all stared at him with infatuated expressions, looking as if they wanted to eat him alive. After all, Lin Feng had always been handso, but with the effects of the Marrow Cleansing Pill, he could now completely overshadow any of those pretty-boy celebrities.
Lin Feng paid no attention to their strange gazes and walked straight toward the classroom. Just as he was about to enter, he happened to run into Tang Xiufang.
Lin Feng flashed her a smile and greeted her, "Good morning, Teacher Tang!"
Tang Xiufang paused, looking at him in confusion. "And you are?"
Seeing her puzzled expression, Lin Feng was a bit baffled himself. That's not right. I didn't use the Change Appearance Skill on her. How could she not recognize ? Could Teacher Tang really be that face-blind?
What Lin Feng didn't realize was that ever since he had taken the Marrow Cleansing Pill, his appearance and physique had undergone a significant transformation. Furthermore, since he usually sat in the back row, Tang Xiufang had only a faint impression of him to begin with. That's why seeing him now left her completely baffled.
"Teacher Tang, it's , Lin Feng."
"Oh... you're Lin Feng. Go on in, the exam is about to start."
Lin Feng nodded and walked straight into the classroom.
The originally boisterous room instantly fell silent. All the students of Class 2 of the Chinese Departnt stared wide-eyed, looking at Lin Feng in disbelief.
"He... He's Lin Feng?"
"No way. How did he get so handso in just half a month?"
"He was always good-looking, but now... his looks are just absurdly handso!"
"It's over, it's over, I'm falling in love..."
Tang Xiufang walked to the lectern, slapped the desk, and barked in a cold voice, "All of you, be quiet!"
The large classroom fell silent once more. Tang Xiufang scanned the students before continuing.
"Today is the first day of your final exams. Is everyone ready?"
"If you don't want to fail, then focus on your papers and try to pass on the first try!"
