Chapter 577: Chapter 577

If this man hadn’t suddenly brought it up, Huo Feng wouldn’t have known that the reason the three of them had barged into the school to find trouble with Sangzhi was that they were instigated by someone!

There were actually students in school who did this kind of thing behind the scenes, truly frightening upon careful thought!

"You said, it was a girl?"

Huo Feng raised an eyebrow, "Who? What does she look like? What did she tell you exactly?"

"This... We don’t know her name."

Luo Wusi thought for a moment and then described, "That girl is pretty. Long hair, big eyes, small palm-sized face, just beautiful at a glance. However, if little brother asks us to identify her, I wouldn’t be able to recognize her. Beautiful, yes, but with no distinctive features. Now, I’ve even forgotten what she looks like. I just remember she was beautiful..."

Even though Luo Wusi’s description was very vague, and even somewhat unclear,

one could guess with about an eighty to ninety percent certainty that it was Han Feiyi!

Looks beautiful but with no distinctive features, lost in the crowd...

Isn’t this the feature of an internet celebrity face?

Han Feiyi, that ugly girl with an internet celebrity face, was actually scheming behind the scenes!

Hurting Sangzhi, causing trouble for her dad!

At such a young age, to have this kind of manipulation, quite deep in plotting!

Huo Feng pursed his lips, his brows locked in deep thought...

A moment later, he hurriedly took out his phone and aimed it at the three men, "I’m going to record a video, tell me the whole incident from start to finish again. Everything she told you, not a single word can be missed! Got it?"

The three men naturally understood what Huo Feng meant.

Now that they had spoken up about the girl, they had to spill everything. After all, they were used to doing bad things; one more didn’t matter to them!

Later, after some thought, Huo Feng didn’t feel that having just this little information was enough to prove it was Han Feiyi...

So he called his aunt Shen Nuan and, through a mix of cajoling and deception, obtained Han Feiyi’s photo from Shen Nuan.

Now that was a solid piece of evidence!

Afterward, Huo Feng used Shen Jianhua’s phone to record the video, while his own phone displayed Han Feiyi’s photo, ready for use!

The three men recounted the details of how Han Feiyi had told them about this incident in front of the camera, not omitting a single word, and in fact, they added quite a bit of exaggeration to their story.

Until they had described the entire incident, a hand holding a phone entered the video frame, and Huo Feng asked them, "Is the girl who spoke to you that day this person?"

Thus, Han Feiyi’s photo on Huo Feng’s phone screen entered the three men’s field of vision.

Looking at the photo, the image of Han Feiyi’s face indeed immediately came to their minds!

All three men nodded in agreement, "Yes! It’s her!"

"We said she was beautiful, didn’t we? We even complimented her beauty at the time!"

Afterward, Huo Feng turned his phone to face the camera, showing Han Feiyi’s photo on the screen, and said, "So, everyone should recognize who this person is, right? Justice lies in people’s hearts, shouldn’t such a scheming person be punished?"

After asking, Huo Feng then turned off the recording.

This short video, a few minutes long, contained all the evidence pointing directly to the wrongdoing of Han Feiyi...

Huo Feng planned to take this video back to Old Huo, to discuss with him how to make Han Feiyi pay the price?

Or maybe not go to Old Huo, but find a way to alter the video’s sound and expose it...

After all, his face wasn’t captured in the video, and by changing the pitch of the voice, he could easily post it on any platform, or even directly on the school’s internal platform.

After giving it some thought, Huo Feng realized this matter really needed action before announcing it!

If he were to show the video to Old Huo, with Old Huo’s upright and uncompromising nature, he would surely show the video to Principal Han.

If Principal Han were to see this video, he might trivialize it, protect his daughter, and bury the incident.

Huo Feng mulled over the fact that if he handed this over to the school authorities, this outcome was very likely!

Only by leaking it early, letting all the students see it, to let the news spread throughout the school and create an impact,

would the school authorities then step in to handle the matter, and incidentally deal with Han Feiyi!

In this way, both issues would be almost handled.

Shen Jianhua left his men to watch over the three men.

Afterward, Huo Feng left the house with Shen Jianhua.

The two walked leisurely down the narrow alley, surrounded by silence, the atmosphere between them slow and sparse.

Up until tonight, it had only been this evening that Huo Feng felt like he could finally catch his breath.

The past period had been too oppressive!

Oppressive circumstances, oppressive mood!

Especially during those few difficult nights for Pu Sangzhi, Huo Feng hardly slept at all, tossing and turning in bed, his mind racing in vain for a solution.

Unexpectedly, today his grandfather came by, and with a few casual remarks, he provided another perfect solution to the issue.

While it wasn’t a complete fix, it at least afforded a temporary respite.

Huo Feng did the math—if Pu Sangzhi could really have two years of peace, his grandfather would have to spend 120,000.

That 120,000 was well spent, far better than sinking it into that bottomless pit of 10 million.

As for the 10 million, there was no need to even think about it for the next few years.

Huo Feng felt that he didn’t need to consider this issue for the next 10 years...

Even with his blind confidence, he knew that with his ability, he couldn’t earn that much money.

Regardless, Huo Feng was thankful to his grandfather.

120,000 was no small sum, and his grandfather had worked hard for that money as well. To offer such a generous financial help, Huo Feng admired his grandfather’s magnanimity!

As they were walking, Shen Jianhua suddenly called out to Huo Feng, bringing him back from his deep thoughts, "Grandfather?"

"Kid, why didn’t you tell me about this earlier?"

Shen Jianhua asked with furrowed brows, "Last time you ended up at my doorstep, beaten and injured. No matter how I asked, you wouldn’t speak. Do you think your grandfather isn’t capable of handling this? Or do you see your grandfather as an outsider, not worthy of knowing about this?"

Huo Feng’s mouth twitched as he hurriedly defended himself, "Grandfather, I absolutely didn’t keep this from you because I saw you as an outsider, nor because I thought you weren’t worthy of knowing. Please don’t take it that way..."

Shen Jianhua "hmmphed" skeptically, feigning anger, "What exactly were you thinking, kid? I don’t know. All I know is that during the summer vacation at my place, you didn’t say a word. In the end, it was your dad who came to me to discuss it. Seeing that it was your dad, I didn’t want to help. If you had come to me, I would’ve taken action long ago. You this kid..."

"That’s enough, Grandfather! I know I was wrong, Grandfather!"

Huo Feng quickly interjected, cutting off Shen Jianhua’s likely upcoming grumble of indignation, "But at least, you should listen to my explanation, Grandfather."

Shen Jianhua gave a long hum, "Hmm... go on, explain."

"This incident was Sangzhi’s family issue. I actually knew about it all along, but I’ve been keeping it secret for her. Her family’s situation has always been her Achilles’ heel, it hurts her pride to bring it up, so naturally, the fewer people who know, the better. The reason I didn’t tell you last time is that I hoped to keep it hidden. We didn’t make it to Beijing, but lied to everyone saying we did, just in hopes of keeping it all secret. But in the end, we couldn’t keep it hidden..."

At this point, Huo Feng sighed lightly.

Shen Jianhua, looking sideways at Huo Feng, hadn’t expected the young man to be so responsible. At such a young age, to have such a sense of duty, truly befitting as the grandson of Shen Jianhua! Orıginal content can be found at 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡✶𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚✶𝙣𝙚𝙩

"Later, when those people made a fuss at the school, Sangzhi’s family issues were completely exposed. Grandfather, I really didn’t mean to hide it from you. When the matter reached the point where it couldn’t be covered up any longer, it was me who asked my dad to seek your help. It was my suggestion that my dad go to you."

Huo Feng continued, his eyes sincerely fixed on Shen Jianhua, "Grandfather, I regret it too. If I had known that we couldn’t keep it hidden, I should have told you right away. That way, maybe you would have solved it sooner."

Shen Jianhua let out a haughty hum, his chin slightly raised, obviously soothed by Huo Feng’s words.

"Thank you, Grandfather."

Huo Feng put his arm around Shen Jianhua’s shoulder, affectionately patting them and speaking in a slightly coquettish tone, "For resolving the issue this way, I am truly grateful for your generosity from the bottom of my heart. Rest assured, Grandfather, I’ll regard this money as a debt I owe you, and once I’m earning money, I’ll pay you back tenfold!"

"Am I asking you for money?"

Shen Jianhua looked at him sideways, "I’m telling you, for such a big issue, you should’ve sought an adult to settle it. You’re still a child, what are you trying to prove?"

Huo Feng nodded with a smile, "Yes, yes, I’ll keep that in mind."

Shen Jianhua waved a hand dismissively, "Enough. Let the matter rest, but remember the money. I have only one thing to say, if she doesn’t become your wife in the future, you must pay me back!"

Huo Feng laughed in response, "Don’t worry, Grandfather. She’s definitely going to be my wife, and the money will definitely be returned. Rest assured!"

Shen Jianhua pointed a finger at him, "You little rascal!"

On the alleyway, the figures of the grandson and grandfather stretched long under the street lights.

This night was peaceful and serene...
