One day, after a test, Huo Feng strutted out of the exam room, chest puffed out, full of swagger and pride.
Having taken five exams, he had cheated on all five, which was thoroughly exhilarating!
After the exam, he bought Xu Miaomiao so drinks and snacks as her share of the profits for providing the answers.
Thinking about how Xu Miaomiao and Pu Sangzhi were in the sa class, Huo Feng figured he should keep this "chess piece" around, just in case he needed it in the future.
So, Huo Feng was quite friendly toward Xu Miaomiao.
Upon finishing the afternoon exam, Huo Feng, as usual, escorted Pu Sangzhi ho.
On the way back, he was brimming with confidence, which made Pu Sangzhi look down on him quite a bit.
Pu Sangzhi certainly didn’t believe that soone scoring over 500 could, by studying just two weeks, rank within the top 200.
Besides, Pu Sangzhi hadn’t noticed him studying seriously these two weeks.
The journey was short, and soon, they were already at their doorstep.
Huo Feng peeked in through the window, the room seeming filled with irresistible temptations; he really wanted to go in!
"Should I say hello to my mother-in-law?" Hence, Huo Feng shalessly asked.
As Pu Sangzhi was unlocking the door, a sense of crisis imdiately struck her upon hearing the words behind her!
Turning around, her eyes widened, glaring at him, "No way, you leave!"
Hey...
Huo Feng chuckled internally, she actually didn’t refute the "mother-in-law" title! Could this an that she has acknowledged Huo Feng in her heart?
"I’ve only t the mother-in-law once, and that was because I insisted. You see, it should have been you introducing ..."
Pu Sangzhi couldn’t help but interrupt him, "What nonsense are you spouting!"
She took a breath, her chest rising and falling slightly, infuriated by Huo Feng, "Huo Feng, can’t you stop being so full of yourself! We’re not even in a relationship!"
Huo Feng’s heart shattered in an instant.
A mont ago she hadn’t denied ’mother-in-law,’ and now she was outright denying everything about Huo Feng.
Won... How could they be so ruthless!
"Sangzhi, wait till this monthly test is over, won’t we be together then?" Huo Feng said, sowhat helplessly.
"Who said?"
Pu Sangzhi denied, "Even if you make it into the top 200, I only agreed to date you for a day, no, hang out for a day. I didn’t agree to be in a relationship with you!"
Indeed, this gamble had been set exactly like this.
This scoundrel Huo Feng had always been cheeky, taking an inch and wanting a mile, not knowing when to stop!
Pu Sangzhi never bothered to argue with him, but many tis she lost her temper due to his persistence.
"Alright...whatever you say, as long as you’re not angry, it’s fine."
Huo Feng didn’t dare to irritate her. Seeing her tone resolute, he was afraid of being completely denied, so he quickly begged for rcy.
He, Huo Feng, absolutely had no way with Pu Sangzhi.
Rember, being loved makes one fearless!
"You leave."
Pu Sangzhi gestured towards the outdoors.
"Alright, alright... I’m leaving."
Huo Feng took a couple of steps back.
"Leave now."
Pu Sangzhi stared at him as if she wouldn’t open the door unless he left.
"Oh... then I’m going."
Huo Feng stepped back a few more steps, pursed his lips, cheeks slightly puffed out, making a pitiful, hopeful face.
Ask him to stay...
Just ask him to stay a bit...
"Hurry up and leave."
Pu Sangzhi still urged him.
Suddenly, Huo Feng’s heart shattered into pieces.
He couldn’t even utter a simple "oh," turned around, and strode away.
Keep in mind that with every step he took, he was reclaiming his dignity, relinquishing his love!
Thinking of this, Huo Feng’s heart ached imnsely!
However, Pu Sangzhi behind him was staring at him with the sharp eyes of a head teacher, watching him leave firmly.
After watching him walk away, Pu Sangzhi let out a long breath, as if relieved.
However, when she turned around, she found the door of her house had already been opened. Chen Huifen was standing at the doorway, smiling at her amusedly.
That is to say, Chen Huifen had seen everything that had just happened between her and Huo Feng!
Pu Sangzhi’s face was imdiately filled with embarrassnt; she walked forward two steps and nudged Chen Huifen, "Let’s go inside, Mom."
Chen Huifen didn’t say a word, but she was snickering, a spectator enjoying the drama.
Once inside, Pu Sangzhi placed her schoolbag by the dining table and rolled up her sleeves to start cooking.
Chen Huifen followed her into the kitchen. Seeing that Pu Sangzhi had begun to wash and rinse the rice, Chen Huifen grabbed a bag of green beans and started to trim them.
At that mont, Chen Huifen stood next to Pu Sangzhi, holding back her curiosity for a long ti, but ultimately, she couldn’t suppress her laughter.
At her laughter, Pu Sangzhi’s cheeks imdiately flushed, and she hurriedly said, "Mom, why are you..."
"Nothing, nothing..."
Chen Huifen shook her head, still smiling, "I just heard that there’s a handso young man at your school who goes to school with you every day, walks you ho, and even tutors Lin Qianqian with you."
"Mom~"
Pu Sangzhi’s body shook anxiously, her face as red as a ripe apple, "Who did you hear that from! You can’t get the wrong idea!"
Even if the whole world misunderstood her relationship with Huo Feng, Pu Sangzhi did not want Chen Huifen to misunderstand.
"I have nothing to do with him; he keeps bothering , and I don’t like him at all." Pu Sangzhi quickly clarified her relationship with Huo Feng.
Chen Huifen chuckled, "So, the child who just called ’mother-in-law,’ was that referring to ?"
"No!"
Pu Sangzhi firmly denied, "He was shouting nonsense, I don’t acknowledge it. Mom, don’t take it seriously, he’s just playing around like children playing house. He’s that casual. If another person were to chase after him, he would speak carelessly just the sa."
"Oh..." Chen Huifen nodded.
"Mom, you believe , right?" Pu Sangzhi’s voice rose anxiously at the end.
Seeing her so agitated, Chen Huifen couldn’t help but laugh again, "Yes, yes, I believe you."
Pu Sangzhi pouted, "Then why are you still laughing if you believe ..."
Chen Huifen just smiled and remained silent.
Actually, she was amused by Sangzhi’s reaction... It was interesting.
This was the first ti Chen Huifen had seen Pu Sangzhi blush and get flustered over such a matter, desperately clarifying while as nervous as if trying to cover sothing up, truly showing her childish nature.
She thought, perhaps Sangzhi herself wasn’t clear about her own feelings.
These pure youthful thoughts, the hazy and tender emotions, made Chen Huifen feel contemplative.
She saw everything, but would never interfere or disturb.
...
On Saturday afternoon, while Pu Sangzhi was tutoring Lin Qianqian, Huo Feng ca again.
The alley where they lived was populated with locals, surrounded by long-ti residents, and Huo Feng’s frequent visits indeed caught attention and invited gossip.
Pu Sangzhi didn’t ask who had passed the gossip to Chen Huifen, but she knew that all these incidents originated from Huo Feng!
In the afternoon, while Lin Qianqian was working on a test paper, Pu Sangzhi confird with Huo Feng once again.
"You promise, if your grades aren’t within the top 200 this exam, you’ll never chase after again. No bothering, no coming to my house, no spreading rumors!" she said.
"Sure... And you promise, if I’m within the top 200, you’ll go to an amusent park with for a day and then watch a movie and have dinner at night!" Huo Feng replied.
"Okay," Pu Sangzhi decisively agreed.
Because she was one hundred percent sure that Huo Feng would not rank within the top 200!
