At 5:30 p.m., Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng got on the car back to school.
Finally, they were going to return to Longxiang to study together.
Huo Feng had been away from campus for quite a while, and the thought of returning to the dull and busy school life made him feel... extrely excited!
On the bus back, they held hands tightly, and Pu Sangzhi turned to gaze out of the window, watching the layers of shadows retreating past the window...
The corners of her mouth maintained a faint smile throughout.
"Ah, it felt so great to scam Yan Ji today."
Huo Feng was still imrsed in the joy of having defeated Yan Siyuan just now.
He had gleefully spent Yan Siyuan’s 100 yuan!
Of course, he had no sense of guilt!
Because Huo Feng could definitely guess that Yan Siyuan, that guy, would for sure have kept a cushion for himself; he must have hidden a substantial amount of money and only pretended to have that pitiful 100 yuan left.
Huo Feng might not have the sharpest brain, but he was experienced in interpersonal relations.
His eyes might not understand the intricacies of other people’s brains, but they sure could see through a person’s true nature!
Huo Feng knew, Yan Siyuan was stingy!
Facing such a stingy person, it was crucial to give him a good knock; he had to give Yan Siyuan a solid beating to let him experience the ruthlessness of brotherhood from Huo Feng!
"Hahaha, Yan Ji is still playing the victim on social dia!"
Huo Feng was browsing through social dia and ca across Yan Siyuan’s post about his empty wallet.
Huo Feng comnted with great pride under Yan Siyuan’s post: [Yan Ji, if you could show us a week’s worth of instant noodles, I’d be even happier!]
After replying to Yan Siyuan, Huo Feng muttered to himself, "I don’t believe you’d eat instant noodles! You rich folks just love to play poor!"
After saying that, the adjacent Pu Sangzhi turned and rcilessly retorted, "Unlike you poor folks who love to pretend to be rich."
"Nonsense!"
Huo Feng argued, "Huo Feng is born with the destiny of the rich. Even if my father isn’t wealthy, and my grandfather isn’t wealthy, it’s a must for my generation to be wealthy! I don’t pretend to be rich; I am a rich young master! Now I have a million to my na!"
Pu Sangzhi "tch"-ed, not eager to pick up on that.
"It’s comfortable to hold so money in hand."
Huo Feng nudged Pu Sangzhi, who was trying to ignore him, with his elbow and said with a grin begging for a punch, "Sangzhi, look at , tell , how many young people out there could be like Huo Feng, owning their first million in life at the age of 18?"
Pu Sangzhi frowned upon hearing that, unable to resist bursting his bubble, "Get it straight, your million wasn’t earned by you. You exchanged your life for it; you stayed in the hospital for so long!"
"What’s the matter with that."
Huo Feng waved it off, "Heroes don’t ask for origins, no matter how these million ca about, it belongs to Huo Feng!"
Pu Sangzhi’s lips twitched, "It seems your Chinese really wasn’t good, what does this saying an?"
Huo Feng leaned his head close to her, whispering in her ear, "Hey, I’ll provide for you."
Pu Sangzhi slapped his chest, frowning displeased.
Huo Feng, however, was in a great mood, bursting into hearty laughter.
"You’re very happy today."
Seeing him laugh like that, Pu Sangzhi remarked.
"Of course I’m happy, I’m the birthday boy."
Huo Feng’s lips curled up high, contentedly saying, "Hey, there’s sothing you probably don’t know, huh?"
Pu Sangzhi was curious to hear more: "Hmm?"
Huo Feng pointed at her nose and said, "We’ve known each other for over 300 days now. More than a year and a month. Rember last year’s birthday, I celebrated with my boys. At that ti, you didn’t even want to see ; your attitude toward was incredibly hostile! Almost as if you wanted to sweep out of the door! I didn’t dare to ask you to celebrate with ..."
Pu Sangzhi unconsciously raised an eyebrow, recalling that November when she had just started her first year of high school.
That’s right...
Last September, when school started, she t Huo Feng for the first ti in October. At that ti, Huo Feng, in her eyes, was a complete bum, indeed very annoying.
If she had known that one day she would like him so much, Pu Sangzhi probably wouldn’t have been so an to him back then, right?
But then again, life doesn’t co with many forewarnings, does it?
"I rember last year on my birthday, in the dorm, my ten sons forced drinks on until I was completely wasted! I had intended to send you a ssage or make a call to say hi, but bla it on those sons for getting so drunk that I forgot all about it. Later, Fatty told that he shared a bed with that day, and I kept hugging his greasy body, crying out your na over and over. The whole dorm knew I, Huo Feng, was saying, ’I’m going to get into Tsinghua, I’m going to marry Pu Sangzhi!’ Heh, thinking about it now, it’s so embarrassing!"
Huo Feng was speaking gleefully about this old story.
It was a story unknown to Pu Sangzhi until now, and hearing it amused her, filling her heart with warmth.
"Ah..."
All of a sudden, Huo Feng put away his mobile phone, clasped her small hands in his, and patted the back of her hand with great emotion, "We’ve known each other for over a year. Compared to last year, things are so different now... you’ve co to like so much..."
Pu Sangzhi couldn’t help but laugh as she turned her head away, gazing out of the window with a sense that the scenery was as lovely and pleasant as her mood.
"Sangzhi, I’ve pampered you for a whole year. Now, be honest with , do you have any complaints about after this year?" Huo Feng asked her.
"Lots..." Pu Sangzhi looked out the window and responded straightforwardly.
"Hey, how can there be so many! You’re really too hard to please!"
Huo Feng did not like her answer and warned her rather seriously, "I’m telling you, be nice. Don’t crush my confidence, or else I’ll stop pampering you!"
After thinking for a while, Pu Sangzhi began, "You’re lecherous, lazy, a procrastinator, boastful, blindly confident, overly narcissistic, not magnanimous enough, narrow-minded..."
"Hold on, hold on..."
Huo Feng couldn’t listen anymore, "How can I have so many faults! You said I was 99 points before! I’ve pampered you for a whole year, 365 days! And this is how you treat ?"
Pu Sangzhi’s smile grew wider as she turned to look at him, her dark blue pupils eting his aggrieved eyes, "But you’re the best."
"Oh..."
That last twist in her words really did improve Huo Feng’s mood significantly.
Pu Sangzhi patted his chest and then said, "After we go back to school, don’t be lazy, don’t procrastinate, and don’t make empty boasts. Work hard to improve yourself, bring your grades up, and strive to get into Tsinghua. I believe you are a very capable person, but right now, it’s leading you. Soday when you can guide yourself, set your own plans and goals, follow your own path, and beco a self-disciplined man, that’s when you’ll truly be worth 100 points."
"Oh..."
Huo Feng obediently agreed.
He thought about it and felt that she was right.
For such a long ti, she had indeed been leading him forward like a bronze player guided by a king.
Although people like her, who start out as kings, may not understand the struggles of a stubborn bronze player like himself.
But she was undoubtedly shaping a king.
And the real kings are those who pave their own way.
Huo Feng understood what she ant.
He thought to himself that he would try harder in the future, aim to beco a 100-point man, and continue to spoil her for the next year, the year after that, for 10 years, 20 years, 30 years, 50 years...
He was determined to spoil her every single day of the year for 365 days, holding her up high and never getting tired of it.
"There’s sothing else I want to tell you..."
Suddenly Huo Feng said this to her.
"Hmm." Pu Sangzhi blinked in response.
Huo Feng smiled and said, "I’m officially an adult this year, 18 years old! From now on, I, Huo Feng, am your man, a grown man!"
Listening to him, Pu Sangzhi laughed, "I know, young man."
"Wrong!"
Huo Feng imdiately corrected her, "Not young man, a man!"
Pu Sangzhi: "Yes, a man."
Huo Feng grinned with joy, "I’m an adult now, I have the responsibilities of an adult! From now on, I have to protect my wife well! I can’t let my wife suffer the slightest grievance! I can’t let my wife shed another tear!"
Pu Sangzhi said, "I’m not your wife."
Huo Feng: "Alrighty. I was talking about my bitch."
Pu Sangzhi suddenly punched his chest, causing Huo Feng pain as he clutched his chest and rubbed it, "You see, you’re just admitting you’re a dog now, right? Why do that to yourself!"
Pu Sangzhi: "Ridiculous!"
Pu Sangzhi: "Don’t call a dog again!"
Huo Feng laughed: "Okay, wife."
