Chapter 452: Chapter 452

How did he sense a hint of sheer luck in it?

This tone, hoping he’d give up on Pu Sangzhi... what the heck was that!

Huo Feng slowly gave Huo Mingshan a sidelong look, contemptuously from the bottom of his heart, "Old Huo, do you really want me to stay away from Sangzhi?"

Huo Mingshan shrugged his shoulders casually and replied, "I never said that."

Huo Mingshan did hope that the relationship between Huo Feng and Sangzhi could be a bit simpler!

If being together could improve their studies, that would be best!

But if the premise of propelling Huo Feng’s academic progress was having Pu Sangzhi sacrifice herself to this kid, Huo Mingshan would refuse!

Thus, Huo Mingshan had always harbored a perfect scenario in his heart: Huo Feng and Sangzhi should maintain a normal school relationship while using this connection to study and progress together. As for dirty thoughts like dating, Huo Feng could easily dismiss those with any other girl!

At least for these three years, Huo Mingshan didn’t want to see them dating, nor did he support it!

Just like earlier at the banquet, when Huo Feng announced in front of so many elders that Pu Sangzhi was his girlfriend, Huo Mingshan felt very uncomfortable! Out of concern for face, he almost hit him with a slipper!

However, all these complex thoughts in Huo Mingshan’s mind hadn’t yet been revealed to anyone.

Huo Feng couldn’t guess what exactly Huo Mingshan was thinking!

Huo Feng just felt that his dad’s brain had holes in it!

"Old Huo, let me tell you, my relationship with Sangzhi is solid as iron! You hope we split, but that’s hopeless in this lifetime! If you must resort to tricks to separate me and Sangzhi, not exaggerating, I’ll stage a modern-day version of the Butterfly Lovers tragedy for you!"

While saying this, Huo Feng leaned his head between the driver and passenger seats, elbows resting on both seats.

He glanced at Huo Mingshan, then turned to Shen Yu, and with his glib tongue began, "Sangzhi and I are now in a stable relationship, with firm beliefs! We even went to the mountains and prayed at Linggu Temple for a marriage fate! As they say, ’marriage is determined by destiny, not by man’! Now no one can break us apart, our marriage fate is ’top fortune’, know what that means? It’s a match made in heaven, woven by the god of marriage! If you dare go against the god and cut the red string between me and Pu Sangzhi, I can assure you, we troubled lovebirds will elope to the ends of the earth, and even if we end up struggling to stay alive, we will die together! Later on, if our joint corpses are discovered, future generations might be moved by our love, speaking of modern-day Butterfly Lovers, that would be me and Sangzhi!"

"Hey, your dad didn’t say anything, so why on earth do you talk so much?"

Shen Yu couldn’t take it anymore, interrupting Huo Feng’s self-praise and aggrandizement.

"Old Huo, look at this kid, whose talking skill did he inherit?"

Shen Yu deliberately glanced past Huo Feng and directly asked Huo Mingshan, "How can he talk so much? These phrases, where does he even find them? The key point is, how can he say such things without feeling embarrassed? Whose thick skin does he inherit?"

The driving Huo Mingshan curled his lips slightly, "Clearly."

Shen Yu asked, "Clearly what? Like you?" The most update n0vels are published on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✶𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✶𝕟𝕖𝕥

Huo Mingshan, risking his life, said, "Like your dad..."

Shen Yu immediately lost her temper, smacking Huo Mingshan’s arm, "Huo Mingshan, you jerk! Talking bad about my dad!"

"Hey hey, keep driving, don’t hit me..." Huo Mingshan urgently pleaded.

"Hey mom, do you think being gentle will work now?"

Sitting in the middle, Huo Feng saw his parents starting to argue, and immediately, the instigator in him kicked in!

"Mom, I’ll teach you how to bully Old Huo..."

Fearlessly speaking, Huo Feng quickly reached over to Huo Mingshan’s head and snatched his toupee, "Look! A gloriously barren mountaintop!"

Shen Yu burst out laughing, "Hahaha!"

Huo Mingshan’s face turned green, his fingers clenched white around the steering wheel...

"Hmm, just making a demonstration..."

Huo Feng nonchalantly placed the toupee back and, to save his life, retreated to the back seat, where he sat down securely.

Meanwhile, Shen Yu, still laughing in the passenger seat, though not as loudly, maintained a mocking tone.

Huo Mingshan felt his dignity under assault...

He clenched his teeth, furiously hissing through clenched teeth, "Huo Feng, you just wait!"

Huo Feng instinctively shrank back, calling out to Shen Yu, "Mom, protect me."

Shen Yu replied, "You might as well get beaten up by your dad. Who told you to always target his toupee? What goes around comes around, when the heaven can’t stand it anymore, you’ll go bald too!"

Huo Feng couldn’t help but shout, "Shut up, why curse me! If I go bald one day, I’m never letting it go!"

Huo Mingshan nodded, "Baldness is hereditary, I can’t fight fate, and neither can you. Find a chance to tell Sangzhi that you have a history of genetic illness, so she can abandon you sooner."

Huo Feng let out a hysterical cry, "You’re toxic, both of you! Passing on these genes, who else is to blame? Not only are you not taking responsibility, but you’re also mocking me!"

In the front, Huo Mingshan and Shen Yu laughed out loud together.

Facing the frantic Huo Feng, their reactions truly showed a united front, their strength invincible together.

Over the years, Huo Feng seemed like an outsider in the family, an extra presence, no, perhaps an enemy-like presence...

Always targeted by the pair, always struggling to survive in the cracks!

The dreadful genetic baldness became Huo Feng’s biggest concern throughout his life.

Before his lush black hair began to fall out in clumps, Huo Feng might have lived in the shadow of impending baldness.

Of course, should the day come when he really started to see signs of baldness.

Huo Feng was prepared with a backup plan!

After some thought, he decided he would just have to shave his head bald if nothing else worked.

Just like Zhang Weijian, with not a single hair on his head, he could still be handsome! He could still make a big splash!

After all, Huo Feng would rather sport a shiny bald head and pretend to be an ascetic monk than let a receding hairline happen to him!

Having had a buzz cut before, he wasn’t afraid of going bald.

Round head, sharp face, long neck, and strong features were enough for him to pull off any look... he just hoped Pu Sangzhi wouldn’t mind.

He hoped she wasn’t obsessed with hair volume...

That night, it was Huo Feng’s first night back at the Huo Family home.

However, lying in his long-missed soft bed, Huo Feng did not have a good night’s sleep.

He dreamt that he went bald at 30, and in the dream, Pu Sangzhi despised him!

Moreover, in the dream, Pu Sangzhi despised him for his lack of hair and quickly went off to date Yan Siyuan and married the hair-obsessed Yan Siyuan!

In the end, Huo Feng went to Linggu Temple to become a monk, sporting a sleek bald head, becoming the handsomest monk in Linggu Temple, and gaining a horde of devotee fans.

But he was not happy in his heart...

Because losing Pu Sangzhi devastated him!

In the end, the dream’s Huo Feng succumbed to depression and ended his miserable life under the ancient Buddha’s green light...

The next day when he woke up from the dream, Huo Feng lay in bed like a lump of mud, staring blankly at the ceiling.

He sighed deeply, emitting a melancholy sound, "Sangzhi and Yan Ji betrayed me..."

Because he felt upset, Huo Feng stayed in bed until nine o’clock and didn’t feel like getting up at all.

At 9:10 AM, while he was listlessly scrolling through his social media on his phone, suddenly, Pu Sangzhi called him on WeChat.

Because he had been betrayed by Pu Sangzhi in his dream, Huo Feng felt very complicated when he saw Sangzhi’s call.

He hesitated for a long while but finally answered...

"Hello..." Huo Feng spoke with a lack of enthusiasm.

"What’s with you today? Why aren’t you at my place yet?"

On the phone, Pu Sangzhi’s voice was soft and gentle, and she started by expressing her concern, which finally made Huo Feng feel somewhat relieved.

"Sangzhi, I had a dream..."

Huo Feng pursed his lips, "I dreamt that you betrayed me, and married Yan Ji."

Huo Feng looked worried, "To tell you the truth, I have a hereditary disease, would you despise me for it?"

Pu Sangzhi’s tone became worried, "What’s wrong with you? Did something happen? Did you drink too much yesterday and still haven’t sobered up?"

Listening to her caring words, Huo Feng felt warmth in his heart.

Huo Feng pouted, "My dad is a bald old monk, and I’m afraid I’ll go bald too~ Would you despise me?"

Pu Sangzhi was stunned.

However, she quickly recovered and replied with a laugh, "You’re worried about that? What’s there to worry about? You’ve had a buzz cut before, you even look good without hair."

"Really?" Huo Feng raised his eyebrows.

Pu Sangzhi nodded, "I think you look good with a buzz cut. Do you want to get another one?"

Huo Feng shook his head vigorously, "No, no, no, let me enjoy my hair while I can in the first half of my life... you can look at a bald head for the rest of it."

The dream was the opposite of reality!

Pu Sangzhi was not obsessed with hair volume; she actually liked the bald look!
