Chapter 438: Chapter 438

Although Huo Feng was reluctant, in the end, he compromised obediently, listening to Pu Sangzhi’s advice and donned a set of black sportswear.

Early on Sunday, he meticulously styled himself for going out, wearing earrings, a white peaked cap, trimmed his eyebrows, and applied some sunscreen with a whitening effect.

As a stunningly handsome young man who thrived on his looks, such grooming was essential!

While looking in the mirror, Huo Feng sighed, "How can there be someone as handsome, dashing, talented, and overwhelmingly attractive as me in this world?"

Sometimes Huo Feng was , the more he looked at himself, the more handsome he felt! So handsome that he even fell in love with himself!

Just then, these self-praising words were overheard by Shen Nuan passing by his room.

Shen Nuan clicked her tongue twice, pushed open the slightly ajar door, and poked her head in, "Yo, feeling that good today? Hypnotizing yourself early in the morning?"

"Who’s hypnotizing themselves!"

Huo Feng frowned, turned his head, and snapped at Shen Nuan, "Every word I said is true! Like me, a handsome guy who resembles Deng Lun, Wang Junkai, Yi Yangqianxi, Liu Haoran, Wu Lei, and other fresh meats, not to mention looks, I’m naturally fed by the heavens!"

Shen Nuan shuddered all over, feeling utterly disgusted!

Her dear nephew was just that self-absorbed and unaware of it.

At best, he was only a little handsome, yet he always praised his looks to the skies.

Huo Feng glanced sidelong at Shen Nuan, "Speak if you have something to say, otherwise I’m heading out. Today’s a date with Sangzhi~"

"Oho~ another date, huh? Looks like things have been moving well lately~"

Shen Nuan couldn’t help but tease, plopping down on his bed, crossing her legs, and wiggling her toes.

Huo Feng confidently admitted, even tilting his chin up, bearing a look of ’I’m proud, I’m smug, I’m beaming with joy’ on his face.

Shen Nuan curled her lips, "Dear nephew, your brother-in-law asked me yesterday when you’re planning to move back? I guess he must be missing you..."

Finally, Shen Nuan had found an opportunity to bring this up.

The father and son’s relationship, Shen Nuan wasn’t sure how much it had mended. Follow current novels on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝓷𝓮𝓽

She guessed it probably hadn’t mended well? Otherwise, her brother-in-law wouldn’t have asked her to relay it to Huo Feng; he should have asked him himself.

Huo Feng too found it strange, why hadn’t the old man called him directly? Instead of hurrying him up himself, he got Shen Nuan to do it?

Huo Feng slightly arched his eyebrows, pondered for a moment, and said, "I’ll move back next week. Isn’t it grandpa’s birthday next week? I’ll head back and get a red envelope while I’m at it."

Shen Nuan nodded, "How much in the envelope? Must be a lot, huh? Your grandpa is always so generous..."

Huo Feng’s mouth curved up highly, "Of course, and it’s not just anyone he’s inherited that from! Generosity runs deep in the family, just like me!"

Shen Nuan grinned and spread her hands towards Huo Feng, "Dear nephew, is there a chance I could scoop a little something for myself from you?"

Huo Feng picked up his phone, walked past her, and playfully tapped her head, his tone doting as he refused, "Don’t even think about it, it’s not happening."

Shen Nuan protested, "Hey, you just said you were generous! Now you won’t even take care of your little aunt! I’ve never seen such a stingy nephew like you!"

Huo Feng laughed as he spoke, "I’m not about to take care of someone else’s woman. I have my own woman to take care of! When I finally have money, it must be spent on something nice for Sangzhi~ You better hope Haozi’s grandpa is as wealthy as mine!"

Shen Nuan pouted, muttering under her breath, "Stingy scrooge, drink cold water, turn into a ghost after drinking cold water!"

However, Huo Feng didn’t hear that.

He had left the room, ready to head to their secret base.

Yesterday, Pu Sangzhi had agreed to meet him there early the next morning and come looking for him.

This was the first time Pu Sangzhi had taken the initiative to come to him, and it was for a date...

Huo Feng was overjoyed and pleasantly surprised!

Thus, he agreed joyously.

At 7:30 AM, Huo Feng met Pu Sangzhi at their secret base.

Today, Pu Sangzhi wore a set of black sportswear, a small black backpack, her ponytail tied high behind her head, and no bangs covering her forehead. Her full forehead and beautiful eyes made her lovely face appear even cleaner.

Huo Feng saw Pu Sangzhi from afar, standing at the entry of the secret base with her backpack.

Despite being dressed in black and simple sportswear, her alluring figure was not to be hidden - the curves were simply sublime! The perfect proportion of her upper and lower body made her legs look even more slender and long. Just those legs alone, Huo Feng thought, were enough to entertain him for a lifetime...

Watching her from a distance, sinful thoughts crept into his mind...

Ah, with such a great figure, such a beautiful girlfriend, one should just lift her up, throw her on the bed, and then do whatever comes to mind!

Of course, that was just a thought.

After all, he was a coward with desires but no courage...

Huo Feng jogged towards Pu Sangzhi and quickly reached her.

Turning his head, he caught sight of Pu Sangzhi’s un-made-up face, which shone with a porcelain brightness under the sunlight. In that instant, he was once again effortlessly captivated by the goddess-like beauty of Pu Sangzhi, capturing a piece of his youthful heart...

"Ah, why are you so beautiful today?"

Huo Feng sighed, unable to resist, and reached out to touch her face, "So white~"

Pu Sangzhi didn’t have time to dodge, and when he suddenly touched her, her face immediately warmed up, and a delicate blush spread across her cheeks.

She spoke nervously, "Why do you do this as soon as we meet? It’s not like we haven’t seen each other before..."

Huo Feng grinned, showing a row of white teeth, "You look especially pretty today! Maybe it’s because I’m in a good mood~ After all, we are going on a date!"

Pu Sangzhi scoffed, then mercilessly reminded him, "We can only play for half a day today. I have to tutor Qianqian in the afternoon. Her middle school exams are in June, so I need to help her boost her grades during this final period."

Huo Feng’s mood instantly diminished, showing a sad expression, "What’s the matter? What about our promised date? Just half a day!"

Pu Sangzhi nodded, "Qianqian’s middle school exam is important. Her grades dropped in this midterm, so I need to spend more time on her."

"What about the time you owe me?" Huo Feng asked.

"I don’t owe you..." Pu Sangzhi replied.

"You clearly owe me half a day’s date! It’s hard enough to get a second date, and you only arrange one for the morning!" Huo Feng said through clenched teeth.

"If you don’t date then, I’m going back..."

As she spoke, Pu Sangzhi turned to leave, but as expected, Huo Feng caught her in an embrace.

"Hey, don’t be , let’s have a proper date..."

Huo Feng hugged her from behind and whispered into her ear in a soft and tender murmur, "Now that we’re here, let’s just enjoy ourselves. The half-day debt can be repaid next time..."

Pu Sangzhi loosened his hold on her, turned around, and looked at him softly, "Let’s go, we’re going to climb a mountain."

Huo Feng was internally devastated!

Soon, they started their hike from the foot of the mountain at their secret base.

This second date, he found very unsatisfactory.

Not just a little unsatisfactory, but extremely unsatisfactory! Every single pore on his body was expressing discontent!

Following behind Pu Sangzhi, every emotion on Huo Feng’s face seemed to scream: I’m pissed off!

Barely getting a chance for a date, they should have gone out and really enjoyed themselves, splurging some money!

And they came to climb a mountain!

Climb what the devil’s mountain, to tidy graves?!

How could he entrust such an important affair as a date to Pu Sangzhi! He was foolish too!

To actually believe in her simple and dumb elmwood head!

The two of them stepped gradually up the mountain stairs, walking towards the sunny top, where Pu Sangzhi was in a good mood.

She turned her head to look at Huo Feng and waved, "Hurry up, how come you’re still not past me?"

Suppressing all sorts of grievances in his heart, Huo Feng took a deep breath, broke into a standard forced smile, and said, "I’m just accumulating strength. You need to walk slowly when climbing a mountain to avoid getting exhausted later!"

Pu Sangzhi stood a few steps above him and waited, urging, "Hurry up, we need to reach Linggu Temple on top by ten o’clock. I want to pray."

Huo Feng arched an eyebrow, thinking to himself: Now we have to pray too?

Was today meant to be devoted to earnest prayer?!

As Huo Feng reached her side, Pu Sangzhi took his hand and pulled him upward.

While walking, she continued, "My mom said that the deities at Linggu Temple are very efficacious. We are going to ask for blessings."

Upon hearing this, Huo Feng immediately widened his eyes!

So she brought him along to receive divine grace! It turned out they were here to ask the gods to bless their relationship forever!

This reason instantly made Huo Feng feel refreshed! Every single pore in his body was completely unblocked!

"Alright! Let’s go! To pray!"

Then, it was Huo Feng who took her hand, stepping up the mountain stairs as they climbed further up!
