On Saturday, because the funeral had just ended, Pu Sangzhi did not tutor Lin Qianqian and Huo Feng.
It wasn’t that she didn’t have ti, but because she needed to adjust her mood and because she was also worried about her mother.
Chen Huifen had resud work today as their family needed money, so work could not stop.
In the morning, the craftsman delivered a new batch of shoe uppers, and Chen Huifen had also finished sewing the previous batch, ready to be handed over.
Thus, Chen Huifen would be quite busy for a while.
After so sad events, perhaps only busy work could help her recover and continue facing life.
This is the world of adults...
In the adult world, there is no room for weakness.
Pu Sangzhi, staying at ho, was busy assisting Chen Huifen today.
While Chen Huifen was busy sewing shoe uppers, Pu Sangzhi was tidying up scraps on the side, and when she had ti, she would also check her phone for any ssages.
Thanks to her phone, Pu Sangzhi now had her own WeChat account, had added so WeChat friends, and joined so WeChat groups.
These social platforms were very lively, with people chatting all day long in the groups, and Pu Sangzhi would occasionally glance at them to see if Huo Feng had any updates.
If it weren’t for WeChat and adding Huo Feng as a contact, Pu Sangzhi perhaps would never have known that Huo Feng’s social circle was so vibrant and interesting.
Therefore, from then on, Pu Sangzhi paid close attention to Huo Feng’s activities, as well as his pretentious deanor in each WeChat group.
Huo Feng sent her several ssages today.
He started sending them when she woke up in the morning...
He sent, "Awake! Had breakfast! Thinking about !"
Pu Sangzhi replied, "Yes, awake. Accompanying my mom now, won’t chat."
He sent again, "All right! Adjust your mood well, I miss you!"
At noon, he also sent her, "Had lunch yet? Still sleeping? Missing !"
Pu Sangzhi still replied to him, "Had lunch, with my mom, won’t chat."
He sent again, "Okay! Eat well and have a good sleep! I miss you!"
In the afternoon, he also sent her, "Still with Auntie? I’ve been studying all day, a bit bored, want to keep company?"
This ti, Pu Sangzhi replied to him, "I’ll accompany you tonight."
He replied imdiately, "Great! What ti? I will wait for you on ti! Also, I miss you!"
Pu Sangzhi responded, "9 PM. Bye."
He replied, "Goodbye! Then I’ll keep missing you! (cute expression)"
Every ti she finished ssaging Huo Feng, the corners of Pu Sangzhi’s lips would unconsciously curve upwards.
Her mood also improved unconsciously in this quiet atmosphere, gradually recovering...
Today, Chen Huifen felt less gloomy because she had gone back to work and had Pu Sangzhi by her side.
Gradually, as the day went by, the mood of mother and daughter shifted from cloudy to clear...
Life also returned to normal with the rhythm of the day.
In fact, humans have a strong capacity for adaptation.
In truth, no one is indispensable to the point that others couldn’t live without them...
The grandmother had passed away, yet the Earth still rotated, life still had to go on...
...
At 9 PM, Pu Sangzhi had just finished washing up and returned to her room.
Since she had promised to contact Huo Feng, as soon as she lay down in bed, she imdiately made a WeChat call to him.
The reason she used WeChat to call was simply that WeChat calls were free.
Pu Sangzhi’s phone plan was tied to Ye Xi’s, and she was using Ye Xi’s balance, so she tried to save as much as possible, striving not to spend even a penny of Ye Xi’s money unnecessarily.
Huo Feng, having waited all day, finally received her call.
At that mont, he was overjoyed, and upon answering, he exclaid, "Wow, you made wait so long! I’m almost sick with yearning—!"
Over the phone, hearing his frantic voice, Pu Sangzhi couldn’t help but smile, "Huo Feng."
On the other end of the phone, hearing her call his na, Huo Feng who was lying on the bed promptly sat up and seriously responded, "Yes! Any orders!"
Pu Sangzhi spoke at a leisurely pace, "Did you study today?"
Huo Feng nodded, "Yes! Studying alone is tough, not knowing if I’m doing it right or wrong, not knowing who to discuss questions with. In the end, it was Yan Ji who kindly video called and explained problems to ..."
This was sothing Huo Feng truly felt grateful for Yan Siyuan, as he had not only accompanied him all day solving problems but also taught him coding!
Yan Siyuan, this chicken, turned out to be one of the most beneficial friends Huo Feng had ever made in his life.
After spending the day together, Huo Feng decided to nurture his friendship with Yan Ji carefully, even more so to extract every useful resource from him!
Such a golden opportunity, not taking advantage of it would be a waste...
Hearing that Yan Siyuan had helped him with his studies today, Pu Sangzhi was surprised, "He taught you? Was he really that kind-hearted?"
"Yeah, Yan Ji is a pretty decent guy!"
Huo Feng nodded, "Hey, let’s start a video call? I want to see your face."
Pu Sangzhi refused, "No."
Huo Feng beseeched her, "Co on~ It’s been two days since I last saw you, I’m really missing you so much it’s driving crazy! I really want to see you... just let have a glance, just one look, please..."
Listening to his exaggerated tone and intense pleas, Pu Sangzhi, after thinking it over, softened and agreed, "Alright."
Subsequently, they ended the voice call and started a video call.
Pu Sangzhi set her phone on the desk while Huo Feng held his phone aid at himself...
The small phone screen showed the other’s face; it appeared as though they were close, but it actually gave a sense of intangible distance.
"Ah~ Finally, I see your beautiful face~"
The Huo Feng on the phone exclaid with a sigh, "Do you know how much I missed you today~"
Pu Sangzhi felt so disgusted that her hairs stood on end, "That’s too disgusting, don’t say that ever again."
Huo Feng furrowed his brows, "It’s the truth, what’s disgusting about it? You never say things like that to ! Do you dare to say even one sentence?"
Pu Sangzhi refused, "No."
Huo Feng pointed at her through the screen, "See, you’re a scaredy-cat, a little trash, a loser!"
Pu Sangzhi, "Hey..."
How could a guy talk to a girl like that? He really didn’t know how to speak!
Pu Sangzhi thought resentfully.
Huo Feng then changed the subject, "By the way, I really learned a lot from Yan Ji today. That guy Yan Ji is a gem, no wonder Lin Qianqian is so into him. If I were a girl, I’d definitely chase after soone like him."
Huh...
Pu Sangzhi sensed sothing off.
"Are you saying you want to pursue Yan Siyuan?" she asked.
"Nonsense!"
Huo Feng firmly denied, "I was just making a comparison. I an, if I were a girl, I’d definitely set my sights on a guy as outstanding as him. Like now, since I’m a guy, I have to aim for a girl as outstanding as you. Strong begets strong!"
Pu Sangzhi pursed her lips, "You, strong?"
Huo Feng nodded, "Of course! I am the strongest king! You have to admit it!"
Pu Sangzhi couldn’t help but laugh, "Here you go bragging again."
Huo Feng laughed too, "You leave no choice since you won’t praise . If you did, I wouldn’t have to brag about myself."
Coaxed by him, Pu Sangzhi smiled, a look of amusent on her face.
Seeing her in good spirits through the screen, Huo Feng felt much relieved.
Then, he beca serious and suddenly said earnestly, "Seeing you laugh puts my mind at ease. I was really worried you might spend the whole day crying at ho..."
Pu Sangzhi beca serious as well, focusing on the earnest and slightly handso face of Huo Feng on the screen, "I’m fine, I’ve mostly recovered. By next week I’ll be back to full strength, so, tutoring continues next week."
Huo Feng nodded, "Good, let’s continue. I’m particularly fond of studying now, really eager to improve! Isn’t that impressive?"
Pu Sangzhi blinked lightly, "Then I look forward to the monthly test in two weeks and seeing you get good results."
Huo Feng affird, "Absolutely. I must score well! But, I really especially want to..."
Pu Sangzhi, "Hmm?"
Huo Feng raised an eyebrow, "If I do well, give a kiss, will you?"
Pu Sangzhi puckered her lips in refusal, "No."
Huo Feng suggested, "It doesn’t have to be on the lips, the forehead is fine, too! Look, my hair is getting much longer. If you don’t kiss it soon, my bangs will grow out and cover my forehead!"
Indeed, Huo Feng’s crew cut had grown out quite a bit.
His hairstyle now looked rugged and handso...
Nevertheless, Pu Sangzhi still refused, "No."
Huo Feng asked, "What would it take for you to give a kiss?"
Pu Sangzhi, "I don’t want to kiss you."
Huo Feng, "Don’t be like that, I’m having a tough ti here..."
Pu Sangzhi teased him, "Such a lech."
Huo Feng willingly accepted her teasing and retorted, "Can’t help it, it’s in my nature. You really can’t give a kiss?"
Pu Sangzhi turned away, "No~"
Huo Feng let out a heavy sigh, "Fine... I’ll ask another ti."
Pu Sangzhi coldly replied, "It will be the sa no matter how many tis you ask, I’m not going to kiss you."
She always felt that high school was too early, that one should maintain proper boundaries.
Thus, no matter how much Huo Feng joked or pleaded, she refused to back down, refusing to let him have his way.
However, at this mont, Pu Sangzhi, who was saying such words, would never have imagined that it wouldn’t be long before she would kiss his lips, and moreover, she would be the one to initiate it...
