Chapter 490: Chapter 490

When Zhu Dandan called Huo Feng and the others over, Pu Sangzhi and Ye Qingcao had already left the place.

The only ones left at the scene were Wen Miao, Shen Nuan, Chen Chaonan, and Chen Ruonan, who was wrapped in a dry towel and shivering.

Chen Ruonan was still complaining to Chen Chaonan about being slapped by Pu Sangzhi and pushed into the water by Wen Miao. As the attacked party, Chen Ruonan had quickly adopted a victim’s posture. Taking advantage of Pu Sangzhi and Ye Qingcao’s absence, she preemptively launched her complaint.

Chen Chaonan, unclear about what exactly had happened just now, asked Chen Ruonan in detail about the entire situation...

However, before Chen Ruonan could even respond, Huo Feng had already returned with his ten brothers and Yan Siyuan in tow.

Huo Feng was also unclear about what had transpired here. When Zhu Dandan called him saying ’Sangzhi was being bullied,’ Huo Feng immediately got out of the water and rushed over with Zhu Dandan.

Who would have thought that upon arriving, Huo Feng would not see Pu Sangzhi...

"Where’s Sangzhi?" he asked.

Next to him, Wen Miao truthfully answered, "Sangzhi left with Qingcao. She asked me to tell you to deal with this woman yourself."

"Who?" Huo Feng inquired.

After asking, he followed Wen Miao’s gaze to the side, his eyes, full of ominous intent, fixed on the two Chen sisters, "What did you do?"

Chen Chaonan shook his head, displaying a ’I have no idea’ expression.

"Forget it, I’ll deal with you two later. I need to find Sangzhi first!"

Huo Feng was concerned about Pu Sangzhi and worried about her current mood. Therefore, he didn’t take the Chen sisters seriously for the moment, planning to chase after and console Pu Sangzhi first.

However, just as he was about to leave, Wen Miao suddenly reached out to stop him.

With a firm gaze, Wen Miao said to Huo Feng, "Trust me, dealing with them is more important than chasing after Sangzhi. Sangzhi was insulted just now. If you don’t stand up for her, no one will. If you leave now, you’re letting them off the hook."

Wen Miao’s words certainly made sense.

Huo Feng immediately dropped the idea of chasing Pu Sangzhi and simply waved at Zhu Dandan, instructing, "Dandan, go to the changing room and stop Sangzhi. I’ll come find her once I’ve dealt with this."

Zhu Dandan promptly agreed and hurried off, heading straight for the women’s changing room.

The remaining Huo Feng then stood with his hands on his hips, an informal posture, and stared at the Chen sisters with a scrutinizing gaze, "Who bullied Sangzhi? What’s going on? Are you out of your minds?"

Chen Chaonan hurried to speak, "Huo Feng, don’t get angry so quickly; there must be some misunderstanding."

To the side, Wen Miao let out a cold laugh, his gaze gliding disdainfully over Chen Ruonan’s face, "You should ask your good sister what kind of nonsense she was spouting just now!"

Chen Chaonan looked anxiously at Chen Ruonan, his tone becoming urgent, "Ruonan, what did you say? Did you go and curse at someone? No matter what you said just now, you must apologize!"

"Why should I apologize to her?"

Chen Ruonan still appeared defiant, not feeling in the slightest that she was in the wrong, "I spoke the truth; it’s just that some people didn’t like hearing it! Moreover, I stood up for you earlier. Why are you telling me to apologize?"

Chen Chaonan’s face showed embarrassment, aware that this situation arose because of him. He felt even more anxious and ashamed, "Ruonan, no need to say anything more, you must apologize!"

Chen Ruonan was stubborn, her tone belligerent and uncompromising!

"Huo Feng, are you really unaware, or are you just pretending? Don’t you see how my sister feels about you?"

Carrying the momentum of standing up for Chen Chaonan, Chen Ruonan challenged Huo Feng without fear, even directly questioning him.

Due to the awareness of their families’ elders from years gone by, Chen Ruonan had heard of Huo Feng’s gangster deeds and knew that Huo Feng was a student who didn’t engage in decent pursuits.

The elders looked down on Huo Feng, and naturally, Chen Ruonan didn’t think much of him either. Moreover, she had always believed that Chen Chaonan liking Huo Feng was a sign of poor judgment on her sister’s part!

"I don’t understand why my sister is so hung up on someone like you, remembering you for so many years! But I just can’t believe it. You’ve known each other since you were kids, grew up in the same school, and must have met numerous times! How could you not know her feelings? Just like that, you pick some random woman to fool around with—don’t you find that disgusting?" Chen Ruonan spoke righteously, as if she were convinced her perspective was completely faultless!

So, Huo Feng and the brothers around him all heard it...

It must be because Chen Chaonan has a crush on Huo Feng, which is why Chen Ruonan stood up for Chen Chaonan and launched a similar verbal attack on Pu Sangzhi!

One must admit, the brothers all thought: Chen Ruonan was really seeking death! No girl had ever dared to speak to Brother Feng before! And to speak so righteously with such a melodramatic reason... her values were indeed bizarre!

"Ruonan, stop talking!"

Before Huo Feng could lose his temper, Chen Chaonan quickly pulled Chen Ruonan back, half shielding her with his body, and hurriedly apologized to Huo Feng, "Huo Feng, don’t take her words seriously. I apologize on her behalf. Sorry for causing dissatisfaction among your group. I’ll take her away right now..."

With that, Chen Chaonan was ready to pull Chen Ruonan away and quickly leave the place!

However, before they could even take a step back, Huo Feng reached out and grabbed Chen Ruonan by the shoulder, shoving Chen Chanonan away with his other hand. The forceful push instantly separated the two of them!

Chen Chaonan still wanted to speak up for Chen Ruonan. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✶𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✶𝕟𝕖𝕥

But before she could utter a word, Huo Feng turned and glared at her, "Shut up! I’ll settle the score with you later!"

Chen Chaonan had never been scolded by Huo Feng before; this was the first time, and it was the most severe one, which scared her into silence, not daring to step forward...

Afterward, a dark aura began to rise from the depths of Huo Feng’s eyes, his gaze filled with malevolence as he fixed on Chen Ruonan...

Chen Ruonan was truly frightened by Huo Feng’s imposing aura, but her stubborn pride made her stand firm, and she said with feigned bravado, "Don’t think I’m afraid of you! My family is not inferior to yours! Even if my dad works under your grandfather, your grandfather is about to retire! I’m not scared of you! Ah..."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Huo Feng pressed his palm against her head, and just the force of his hand pushed Chen Ruonan’s head down, bending her over at the waist! She stumbled beneath her feet and fell to the ground...

Chen Ruonan could have never imagined that Huo Feng would actually hit a woman, displaying such despicable characteristics!

So when Huo Feng knocked her down, Chen Ruonan’s mind went blank, unable to comprehend for a long time...

Just then, Huo Feng casually picked up a glass of lemonade from the coffee table, walked over, squatted down, and without hesitation splashed it onto Chen Ruonan’s face!

Chen Ruonan’s face was drenched in lemonade, forcing her to close her eyes. The sour lemonade stung her eyes, causing her pain and preventing her from opening them, while she groaned in agony...

Seeing Huo Feng lay hands on her so mercilessly, Chen Chaonan panicked and rushed forward to stand in front of Huo Feng, "Enough, Huo Feng! Don’t hit her anymore!"

"I, a grown man, am angry, and you tell me not to get physical. Am I supposed to just argue with words instead?"

Huo Feng’s brows furrowed tightly, and he said casually, "Move aside, I haven’t even started to get serious yet!"

At that moment, the attention of the crowd around them once again gathered on this scene.

This might be the most eventful day since Tangxia Swimming Pool opened its doors...

This group of youngsters had a competition, got into fights, and it looked like another drama was about to unfold. The visitors who came for a swim today were overwhelmed!

"Huo Feng, she’s just got a bad mouth, but she’s not a bad person. Let her apologize, and that should be enough. After all, our elders know each other, and there will be future interactions; give each other some face!" Chen Chaonan pleaded vigorously.

Huo Feng raised an eyebrow, "Did you give me face when you bullied my girlfriend? Cut the crap, at least let me kick her a few times to let off steam!"

Chen Chaonan shouted in desperation, "Don’t go too far! She just blurted out a few words too quickly, and you’ve already taken her down a notch! Our families have ties, how are we supposed to interact if we become hostile?"

"It was more than just a few words."

From behind, Wen Miao spoke up in a timely manner, "Brother Feng, she said a lot of ugly things! She kept attacking Sangzhi, insulting Sangzhi as a homewrecker! Saying you picked her up off the streets as free game! She didn’t hold back, and she also hit Xiaocao! She’s not only insulting people but also hitting them! If we don’t hit back at such a lowlife, should we just let her harm others?"

Huo Feng’s brows furrowed even tighter, "Really? She insulted Sangzhi like that?"

And at that time, Yan Siyuan’s brows were also deeply furrowed...
