Chapter 480: Chapter 480
"You are going to work part-time?"
Huo Feng raised an eyebrow in disbelief, "For real? A summer part-time job? How long? With Xiaocao? Whose idea was it? I mean, aren’t you guys bored!"
He bombarded her with a series of questions, and by the time he reached the last query, his attitude toward the matter was clear.
Clearly, Huo Feng disliked and disagreed!
Pu Sangzhi responded nonchalantly, discarding Huo Feng’s ’unwilling’ expression and just said, "It’s not about being bored, it’s just we have too much time, so we should do something meaningful."
"Part-time jobs are meaningful?"
Huo Feng wrapped an arm around her shoulder, shaking her body, "Wake up, you are a goddess, don’t come down to the mortal world for no reason!"
Pu Sangzhi was amused by his words and lightly punched him on the chest, "You’re the one living in a dream, I’m very ordinary, okay!"
Huo Feng countered, "Ordinary my foot! You’re smart, beautiful, kind-hearted, simple, empathetic, gentle in personality, curvy in all the right places, a natural beauty that looks divine, just walking on the street would have people shouting ’Miss, can I add your WeChat?’, and with just a little makeup you could be a net idol, even that billionaire’s son would fall for you, don’t you realize your charm yet!"
"That flowed pretty smoothly huh!"
"You could go sing ’Balloon’ now!"
"Guys, don’t we need to tactfully scram?!"
Their playful banter captured the attention and jest of a group of guys sitting in the front row and Wen Miao who was close by.
Not only their group of friends, but passersby who heard this also couldn’t help but take several looks at Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng before walking away with suppressed laughter...
Having been the center of unwarranted attention, Pu Sangzhi’s face heated up and she could only reproach Huo Feng, "Stop talking nonsense!"
Huo Feng stared at her insistently and solemnly said, "Don’t go looking for part-time jobs, promise me. That stuff isn’t suitable for you."
"Sis-in-law, you’re thinking about finding a part-time job?"
Consequently, the whole group of brothers was in on it, with Pan Bo speaking first, "Why did you suddenly think of working part-time? Are you short on cash?"
Pu Sangzhi pursed her lips, "Hmm..."
Pan Bo continued, "Are you trying to buy something? No big deal, no need for part-time jobs, just say the word, Huo Feng can afford anything expensive!"
The brothers weren’t aware of Pu Sangzhi’s family situation, and Huo Feng never shared details about Pu Sangzhi’s family with them.
Therefore, upon hearing that Pu Sangzhi was looking for a part-time job, the brothers assumed that Pu Sangzhi had her eyes on some expensive item and thus needed to earn money.
Indeed, the majority of students worked part-time for this reason.
So, their assumption was not entirely unjustified.
Fearing that Pan Bo might inadvertently touch on a sensitive issue with Pu Sangzhi, Huo Feng cut him off in time, "My girlfriend working part-time isn’t because she’s out of money! She’s just a fairy descending to the mortal world, trying to experience some hardship! No big deal, Sangzhi, you’re set up well up there, no need to suffer through tribulations here! What if you develop some connections with a waiter or a delivery guy, what am I supposed to do then?"
Pu Sangzhi elbowed him lightly, "What nonsense are you spouting now! Have you been watching fantasy dramas again lately? Hey, stop worrying about me; I have the right to plan my summer."
Just as she was saying this, Pu Sangzhi’s phone rang.
She picked it up and saw that it was a call from Ye Qingcao and quickly answered, "Hello Xiaocao, I’m already in Tangxia..."
Having finished the call, Pu Sangzhi then parted ways with the group to meet Ye Qingcao at the head of the Tangxia Central Bridge.
Of course, Huo Feng escorted her there...
On the Central Bridge, Huo Feng and Pu Sangzhi immediately spotted the always conspicuous Ye Qingcao!
Why say very conspicuous?
Because Ye Qingcao liked to wear bright clothes and had a little yellow duck backpack; such a brightly colored ensemble always made her easily stand out in a crowd.
Additionally, when she smiled, her shiny, gleaming braces sparkled under the sunlight, blinding everyone!
From afar, Ye Qingcao waved at them and called out.
Her voice was also incredibly loud, like a soprano dolphin!
With people constantly passing by on the bridge head, Ye Qingcao’s shout inevitably drew the gaze of many pedestrians!
The surrounding pedestrians all turned their attention to her, but she, oblivious to the attention, continued waving at Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng while running towards them, "Sangzhi ah~ I’m here!"
"Xiaocao really isn’t afraid of public scrutiny..." Huo Feng sincerely lamented.
Pu Sangzhi, however, remarked, "Weren’t you doing the same just now?"
Huo Feng glanced at her and actually couldn’t refute!
Ye Qingcao finally sprinted up to Pu Sangzhi, arms wide open, about to hug her, when suddenly, Huo Feng pushed her forehead back with one hand, forcefully stopping her!
"All you think about is taking advantage of Sangzhi. Don’t you care at all about how Sangzhi’s boyfriend feels?" Huo Feng complained, frowning unhappily.
Ye Qingcao finally greeted him with a giggle, "Brother Feng, this afternoon is just for the sisters, you’ll have to leave later!"
Huo Feng frowned unhappily, "You’re still discriminating against guys! Feminism huh!"
Pu Sangzhi stepped up beside Ye Qingcao, linking arms with her, and waved at Huo Feng, "Alright, go swim with your brothers."
Huo Feng lifted his chin proudly, refusing, "I want to be with you all! I don’t want brothers; I want girls now!"
"Oh, Brother Feng, why are you still so clingy. When I met you, you were this clingy, and you still are, no improvement at all!" Ye Qingcao teased him.
This really irritated Huo Feng, raising one eyebrow high, "What did you say? Say that again if you dare!"
Ye Qingcao fearlessly repeated, "Oh, Brother Feng, why are you still so clingy. When I met you, you were this clingy, and you still are, no improvement at all!"
Huo Feng’s eyebrow arched even higher, "Giving you one more chance, say it again if you have the guts!"
Ye Qingcao looked at Huo Feng and hesitated, "Why would you have such a shameless request?"
Xiaocao’s mouth has become so venomous!
Huo Feng took a deep breath, pointed at Ye Qingcao, "Xiaocao you come here, let me show you what it’s like to be flattened!"
On the side, Pu Sangzhi, who had been quietly watching their banter, couldn’t help but laugh, "Alright, you two stop bickering. Huo Feng, go find your brothers. Xiaocao and I are going to a bookstore first."
Huo Feng asked, "I thought we were looking for part-time jobs, why are you going to a bookstore now?"
Ye Qingcao answered for her, "Hehe, because Sangzhi just needs to help me find a book, see which one is suitable to give to my crush!"
Huo Feng objected, "Even if you give Yan Ji a whole shelf of books, it’s no use, Yan Ji likes me!"
Pu Sangzhi: "..." Updates are released by 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✶𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮✶𝓷𝓮𝓽
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Their worldviews... shattered!
Seeing them silent, Huo Feng hurriedly scrambled to explain, "Hey, don’t take it so seriously! I was just joking! I’m a straight man through and through!"
Ye Qingcao stated, "My crush is also straight. Unless you like him, he definitely won’t like you."
Huo Feng nodded, "Right. Yan Ji and I are straight, we are like parallel lines, don’t worry, parallel lines never cross."
On this point, Huo Feng and Ye Qingcao did agree.
Only Pu Sangzhi still stubbornly believed, Yan Siyuan must be a deeply hidden gay!
Pu Sangzhi believed that time would prove everything.
And all she had to do was to keep an eye on Huo Feng.
As for who Yan Siyuan would choose to meet in the future, that was none of Pu Sangzhi’s business.
Late on, Huo Feng was still kicked out from Pu Sangzhi and Ye Qingcao’s sister time, returning to his brother time.
On Tangxia Street, they split ways to pursue their favorite activities, immersing themselves in the leisurely fun of the first day of summer break...
Huo Feng and his brother group, along with several girls, went to the Tangxia Swimming Pool.
Boys and girls separated into different rooms to change into swimsuits, while ambiguous thoughts quietly brewed in the nervous hearts of the girls...
Elsewhere, Pu Sangzhi and Ye Qingcao were in a bookstore picking out a gift for Yan Siyuan.
Ye Qingcao chattered a lot with Pu Sangzhi about her recent fun chats with Yan Siyuan, feeling very happy.
Sitting in a corner of the bookstore, they chatted softly, joyful.
About their studies, about boys, about the future — girls always have endless topics to discuss.
After chatting for about half an hour, Ye Qingcao, while checking her friends’ circle, found the posts from Huo Feng’s group...
Ten brothers, a few girls, without exception, everyone had posted videos of them having fun at the Swimming Pool...
And very deliberately, all eleven boys tagged Ye Qingcao! Asking her to come and play!
Ye Qingcao looked a bit envious, "Ah, they seem to be having so much fun. Swimming in the big summer must be cool~"
Pu Sangzhi looked at her, "Do you want to go swimming too?"
Ye Qingcao shook her head, "No! We came to look for part-time jobs today! I need to make money to buy the most expensive gift for my crush!"
Therefore, the calling video sent by Huo Feng and his group failed to summon Pu Sangzhi and Ye Qingcao. Instead, some dedicated individuals, after seeing the video, got ready and rushed to the Swimming Pool for a chance encounter...
