Chapter 533: Chapter 533

Ye Qingcao really heard Pu Sangzhi speak with such emotion for the first time. She was afraid of losing Brother Feng!

Had she not seen her say these words with her own eyes, Ye Qingcao would never have believed that Sangzhi could actually utter such words!

"Wow... So you’ve grown so deeply attached to Brother Feng already!"

Ye Qingcao’s voice was pitched high at the end of her sentence, filled with disbelief.

"Actually, my life with Huo Feng has always been plain. Every day is just study and more study, and it’s always him who takes the initiative, he who strives, he who fights for it. In this pattern, I’ve grown accustomed to him shamelessly sticking by my side. So when one day, he suddenly became so desperate that he wanted to give up on me, I really felt scared..."

Pu Sangzhi sighed softly, "The worst part is that the thing had nothing to do with me; it was someone else who framed him, someone else who put the blame on him. As a result, he developed animosity towards everyone, including me. At that time, I felt both sad and very angry, angry at those who treated him that way, who wronged him so. Of course, I was also angry at those people, for they had actually driven away my Huo Feng..."

Listening intently from the side, Ye Qingcao bared her teeth in excitement.

Pu Sangzhi also spoke with emotions, each sentence coming straight from the heart, "Back then, he was so disheartened, he even skipped classes. I originally wanted to find him and explain, but I couldn’t find him anywhere. Later, I had no choice but to seek justice from the teachers, to prove his innocence. You have no idea how long I cried in front of the teachers, and every time I thought of him giving up on me, I felt very sad..."

"Hey, does Brother Feng even know about these feelings of yours?" Ye Qingcao asked.

"I definitely won’t tell him," Pu Sangzhi said. "He’s already conceited enough as it is, if I told him all this, his tail would wag up to the sky. Besides, I always wanted to control the pace between us, I didn’t want to move too quickly. I hope to progress steadily, doing things appropriate for our age. It’s too early right now..."

Ye Qingcao agreed with Pu Sangzhi’s thoughts, "Your idea is just like my idol’s. My Yan Siyuan also said that high school is too early, it’s the age to study, so he didn’t plan to have a girlfriend throughout high school!"

"It’s good that Yan Siyuan has such an outlook, I just hope he comes to his senses soon, and not just arbitrarily find a boyfriend to spend the rest of his life with," Pu Sangzhi said knowingly.

Ye Qingcao retorted, "You have too much prejudice against my idol, don’t talk about him anymore. Talk about Brother Feng instead! What happened next? After proving his innocence, did you then go find Brother Feng to reconcile?"

"Actually, he came to find me first."

Thinking back on that incident, Pu Sangzhi felt an involuntary surge of sweetness in her heart, "He called me several times that day, but I didn’t pick up because I was asleep. Later, when we made up, he told me he had been planning to buy a train ticket and just go to any city to get by. But it was because he saw the life goal saved in his phone’s memo, his resolve wavered and that’s why he came to reconcile with me."

Ye Qingcao then asked, "What life goal?"

Pu Sangzhi said with a sweet smile, "Get into Tsinghua, marry me and take me home."

Ye Qingcao felt her girlish heart about to burst, she couldn’t help but cup her cheeks, swooning, "Brother Feng is so cool! He actually set such a life goal!"

Pu Sangzhi giggled, "That’s why I’m good with Huo Feng now. I also hope that nothing will happen in the future that could affect our relationship. If all goes well, I hope to continue with Huo Feng just , and later, I want to marry him."

Ye Qingcao felt her heart melting!

She hurriedly covered her chest, clutching it tightly, "Oh my! You guys are way too sweet! This is an unbearable level of sweetness for single dogs!"

Pu Sangzhi, seeing Ye Qingcao make such a fuss, bowed her head and laughed softly, "Alright, that’s enough chatting for now, I’m going to come up with a study plan for Huo Feng. Don’t come to me for more talk, otherwise I’ll say even more about the stuff between me and Huo Feng and end up grossing you out."

Ye Qingcao hugged her pillow and rolled around on the bed twice, feeling too excited to calm down for a long time...

Afterward, Ye Qingcao made various weird noises on the bed...

She carried on alone for quite some time before finally calming down.

Lying messily on the bed, she continued to watch Pu Sangzhi, who was buried in her work at the desk, "Sangzhi, I envy you..."

"There’s no need to envy me; you will find the right person in the future," Pu Sangzhi replied.

Ye Qingcao added, "Sangzhi, I hope you can marry Brother Feng in the future, and I want to attend your wedding and be the bridesmaid!"

Pu Sangzhi smiled, "Don’t worry, you’ll definitely be the bridesmaid. You’ll have to think of ways to give Huo Feng a hard time..."

Ye Qingcao nodded eagerly like a pecking chick, "Yes, yes! I’ll scour the internet for all the tortures ever conceived and use them on Brother Feng! That’s for always laughing at me for being ugly!"

"You’re not ugly, you’ll be beautiful once you get your braces off," Pu Sangzhi said.

Ye Qingcao replied, "Right? You know what’s up! My looks are just being dragged down by these braces! I have a bit of a ’braces face’ right now... But never mind that, I still have to endure these few years!"

Pu Sangzhi chuckled softly, "Ah, life... Who isn’t enduring something..."

Pu Sangzhi was also enduring her daily life.

Her way of enduring was different from Ye Qingcao’s.

The latter half of the month passed calmly.

Nothing major happened at Pu Sangzhi’s home, and she and her mother followed Huo Feng’s advice, giving the wrong address to others.

Nonetheless, Pu Sangzhi still had no news from her father.

She had no idea when there would be news from her father...

Pu Sangzhi was waiting.

The second month of summer vacation finally arrived.

Entering August, the weather became increasingly scorching, and the sun outside grew more merciless.

Pu Sangzhi was grateful that she had asked Huo Feng to come over in the morning yesterday. Had she let Huo Feng come in the afternoon under the blazing sun, Pu Sangzhi feared he might have suffered heatstroke...

However, Pu Sangzhi’s home had no air conditioning, only a few electric fans squeaking as they blew.

The study environment was extremely harsh...

It was still bearable in the morning, when the temperature wasn’t so high and the breeze from the fan was somewhat comforting.

But come noon, both inside and outside the house were hot, and even the air from the fan felt scalding.

It was a vivid demonstration of sweating profusely while being blown by an electric fan...

Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng sat in the living room for their supplementary lessons, with one electric fan blowing on both of them.

Ye Qingcao sat beside them, playing on her phone, barely hanging on as she felt the occasional weak breeze blowing past them...

Ye Qingcao felt like she was about to suffocate from the onset of heat exhaustion.

Huo Feng was so hot that his entire brain was muddled too!

The harsh environment made it impossible for him to concentrate on the problems. Wiping his sweat with a tissue, he made laborious attempts to do the math...

Summer was truly a torturous season. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾·𝗇𝖾𝗍

Pu Sangzhi sat by and watched Huo Feng struggle with the questions, unable to solve a single one, and kept busy wiping sweat.

She began to realize the problem...

"Let’s not review anymore for today."

Pu Sangzhi then excused Huo Feng, closing the summer homework book, and suggested, "You’re sweating a lot. Do you want to go to the bathroom and take a cold shower?"

Huo Feng countered, "Can I take off my clothes?"

He was already hot enough to want to go shirtless...

Pu Sangzhi had seen him shirtless before. Seeing him so hot, she naturally nodded in agreement, "Then take off your clothes. After that, go to the bathroom and wipe yourself with some cold water."

Huo Feng let out a sigh of relief, hurriedly stood up, and stripped off his only white T-shirt.

Suddenly, his bare upper body was fully exposed in front of the two girls.

His physique was still impressive, every muscle on his upper body clearly defined and well-proportioned...

The gazes of both Pu Sangzhi and Ye Qingcao lingered on him for several seconds, seemingly mesmerized...

"It’s so hot, I’m going to wipe down."

Huo Feng got up and walked toward the bathroom. As soon as he left, Ye Qingcao hurriedly stood up, dashed to the electric fan, grabbed it, and let out a cry, "Ah... that’s more like it!"

Of course, that was also a false comfort...

Because the air blown by the fan was hot as well!

Pu Sangzhi felt particularly embarrassed seeing the two of them so overheated.

Because her home had no air conditioning.

Nowadays, who doesn’t have an air conditioner at home?

Air conditioning, once a luxury, had become a necessity for the summer, common in every household.

Only Pu Sangzhi’s house had no large electrical appliances...

Ye Qingcao, clinging to the electric fan, drawled Pu Sangzhi’s name while suddenly engaging in her own amusement.

But she failed to see that, at this moment, Pu Sangzhi felt very sorry for them.
