Chapter 467: Chapter 467

Huo Feng sometimes felt that Pu Sangzhi was particularly difficult to talk to, unyielding to any approach!

Sometimes he felt that Pu Sangzhi was incredibly easy to talk to!

Although he didn’t know when Pu Sangzhi was easier or harder to talk to, the fact that she was easy to talk to filled Huo Feng with joy!

"So it’s settled! As long as I rank in the top 30 in my class, you let me take a month off during the summer vacation!" he said.

Fearing she might change her mind, Huo Feng earnestly repeated, "No backing out! Backing out is for dogs!"

Pu Sangzhi blinked faintly and softly replied, "Mhm."

Huo Feng happily raised his eyebrows, reached out to touch Pu Sangzhi’s head, and sighed, "Ah, your reasonable nature is also quite adorable!"

Pu Sangzhi brushed away his meddling hand, retorting, "When have I ever been unreasonable?"

Huo Feng said, "Many times!"

Pu Sangzhi couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him, "Nonsense."

Then, Huo Feng began to give an example, "Look, here’s the simplest example. Every time I say I want a kiss or a hug, you never agree no matter how much I plead!"

Pu Sangzhi replied, "If you think that’s being unreasonable, then I will continue to be unreasonable."

Huo Feng frowned and clicked his tongue, "Are you trying to train a husband here? You probably don’t realize that you are actually training a monk. Little by little, you’re wearing away my desires—wear away, wear away, until one day!"

Pu Sangzhi glanced at him sideways, "You’re going to become a monk?"

Huo Feng declared, "I’ll turn into a beast and gobble you up! Roar~"

Saying so, Huo Feng made a gesture as if to pounce on Pu Sangzhi, which made her retreat to the side and scoot away two seats...

Seeing her scared like that, Huo Feng burst into loud, mocking laughter.

Pu Sangzhi took a deep breath, locked her brows in silence at him, and deemed, "Childish!"

Huo Feng slammed his palm on the table and said, "You’re the childish one, dodging like a little kid at just a scare! No courage at all!"

Pu Sangzhi scoffed, "Psh..."

She wasn’t about to stoop to Huo Feng’s level!

Huo Feng also moved two seats closer, reoccupying the seat nearest to Pu Sangzhi, "When can I steal another kiss from you?"

As soon as Pu Sangzhi heard this, she immediately crossed her arms over her chest and flatly refused, "Impossible!"

Huo Feng frowned and picked up a pen from the table, twirling it through his fingers, "Sigh, always rejected... always... sigh..."

He purposely sighed several times, audibly venting his melancholy for Pu Sangzhi to hear.

Seeing him putting on an act again, Pu Sangzhi found it amusing and decided to tease him, "It’s not completely out of the question. Unless..."

Huo Feng looked at her, "Unless what?"

Pu Sangzhi smiled, "Unless we’re officially dating..."

Huo Feng waved his hand dismissively as all hope dissipated. "Ah! Forget it! I knew you were teasing me! Next, you’ll say not until Tsinghua, then it has to be securing admission to Tsinghua for us to date. I know all your tricks; I’m tired of hearing them!"

Pu Sangzhi’s gaze locked onto him calmly, "Since you know, why keep making pointless requests."

Huo Feng replied, "Asking doesn’t break the law. Life should have dreams, right? What’s the difference between having no dreams and being a salted fish?"

Pu Sangzhi pursed her lips, "Then keep dreaming, I won’t join you."

Seeing her so cruel and heartless, Huo Feng feigned heartbreak, "Ah~ you’re so ruthless! Not even willing to be close, and you’ve never even said you liked me! How wretched am I that I can’t even earn a ’like’ from you, my heart in turmoil, unable to find peace!"

As he spoke, Huo Feng even patted his chest, looking extremely heartbroken.

Pu Sangzhi quietly watched his performance, a smile curving up the corners of her lips.

Seeing her paying attention to him, Huo Feng got even more enthusiastic and kept rambling, "Anyway, it’s not illegal to say you like me, right? We’ve been together for so long, I’ve given you so many gifts, and if you say you don’t like me, that’s impossible! So just admit it sooner, and I’ll feel at peace~"

"See, you’re not talking again. That expression makes me feel like you’re watching a monkey..."

"Hey, that’s a bit too much. I’m putting myself down here, and you can’t even argue back a bit, don’t you feel a bit heartbroken?"

"And to think I’ve spent so much time on you, sidelining my ten hypothetical sons. Ah, then I should consider whether it’s better to pamper them or pamper you!"

Huo Feng continued to mutter to himself, even though Pu Sangzhi wasn’t responding, he didn’t feel embarrassed, just kept talking and venting...

Pu Sangzhi quietly listened to his ramblings, and as she listened, she reached out to pull away the test paper on his desk, then lowered her head to grade it while continuing to listen to him go on.

Huo Feng was quite the talker, his mouth moving nonstop, saying anything and everything without feeling embarrassed.

Gradually, he spoke about the final exams, the upcoming summer vacation, and how he planned to spend the two months of summer...

Summer vacation was indeed coming soon.

For students, it was the longest break of the year, and it was a time eagerly anticipated by most students.

While listening to Huo Feng discuss his plans, Pu Sangzhi also made her own plans silently.

She thought, giving Huo Feng a month’s leave was also good, that way she could have an extra month off too. Then, she could find a part-time job and earn some wages for next semester’s living expenses.

Her family’s situation required her to do so...

This weekend, Huo Feng’s family had a very peaceful time.

After Huo Mingshan received that bottle of perfume, he didn’t mention a word about the perfume to Huo Feng. Although Huo Feng had been waiting for Huo Mingshan to bring it up...

But Huo Mingshan just wouldn’t do as he wished!

On Friday, when Huo Feng came home, he occasionally observed Huo Mingshan’s expressions, wondering if Huo Mingshan had changed his opinion of him? Was the perfume worth it?

Turns out he discovered... there was no change at all! 3000 yuan wasted!

Huo Feng didn’t want those 3000 yuan to go down the drain, so he wasn’t in a rush to visit Pu Sangzhi on Saturday morning.

At half past eight, Huo Feng snuggled in his bed, messaging Pu Sangzhi, asking her, "My dad accepted the gift, not a single feedback, help please!"

On the other side, Pu Sangzhi, who was studying alone, promptly replied, "Is this why you’re not coming for the revision session?"

Huo Feng replied with a ’crying face’ emoji, adding, "3000 yuan, I can’t just spend it without any clue! I just want some feedback..."

Pu Sangzhi replied, "Then you should ask."

Huo Feng replied, "Embarrassing, huh. Who asks for feelings after giving a gift..."

Pu Sangzhi replied, "You’re not the type who can’t ask."

Huo Feng, "I am! I’m shy and embarrassed!"

Pu Sangzhi, "Stop pretending..."

To be denied by Pu Sangzhi like that!

Huo Feng felt very heartbroken!

A minute later, Pu Sangzhi sent him another message, "Don’t be afraid of your father, and don’t always feel like there’s a barrier between you two. He’s your father, blood is thicker than water, I believe he just doesn’t know how to express himself. You too. I think, you two just lack communication. Go talk to him properly, you must mend the relationship."

The saying goes, hearing your words is better than reading ten years of books, Pu Sangzhi’s words suddenly made Huo Feng feel... nauseated!

He and Old Huo lacked communication?

Don’t they communicate enough already?

Every time, communication turned to violence!

Huo Feng thought it over and decided no longer to discuss it with Pu Sangzhi.

She didn’t understand the exact negative magnetic field relationship between him and Old Huo, just blindly advising him to reconcile, later he would be the one who ends up suffering!

"Ah, the kindness of a woman..."

Huo Feng sighed deeply, put away his phone, and got out of bed. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩✶𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚✶𝕟𝕖𝕥

Although he was very disdainful of Pu Sangzhi’s bad idea.

But after opening the door and stepping out, Huo Feng still found himself magically at Huo Mingshan’s door.

Huo Mingshan and Shen Yu, both being regular office workers, had weekend habits of sleeping in.

So by nearly nine, the couple was still dead set on staying in bed, showing no intention of getting up.

At Huo Mingshan’s door, Huo Feng held his phone, hesitating whether to push the door open, say he was preparing breakfast, and casually ask about the perfume...

Thinking this, Huo Feng felt a bit more courageous.

However, just as he raised his hand to knock, suddenly, a murmur of conversations came from inside the room.

Huo Feng thought they were discussing him behind his back, so he quickly pressed his ear against the door and listened intently!

Sure enough, inside the room Huo Mingshan was saying, "Huo Feng, this brat has a really foul temper! I only said a few words to him last week, and he went off to buy a bottle of perfume to make it up to me, like he wants to settle the account and not owe me anything! You think his actions make any sense? It makes it look like I’m petty and he’s generous! He doesn’t even consider where his money comes from! His money is still given by his elders, he hasn’t earned a dime by himself, yet acts rich! But it annoys me so much, I really want to beat him up again!"

Outside, Huo Feng: "..."

Blood is thicker than water...

I believed your nonsense!
