Chapter 609: Chapter 609

To easily see Pu Sangzhi, Huo Feng specially endured the pain and moved a bit on the bed, making room to share half of the bed with her.

That way, Pu Sangzhi could lie next to him, share the same pillow, and be in the corner of his eye.

Huo Feng’s peripheral vision caught a glimpse of Pu Sangzhi lying on the pillow just like him. He watched as the proud curve of her chest slowly pressed down, perfectly aligning with the pillow, very closely attached...

He thought to himself: I really want to be that pillow...

"Suffocating?" Huo Feng asked.

Pu Sangzhi didn’t understand at first, "Huh?"

Huo Feng licked his dry lips and asked again, "I said, your chest is completely squished, do you feel suffocated?"

Pu Sangzhi was stunned for a few seconds...

After a few seconds, she couldn’t help but exclaim, "Hey! You’re so disgusting! I’m not lying with you anymore!"

Saying this, Pu Sangzhi prepared to get up...

But just as she had risen halfway, Huo Feng suddenly reached out a hand to grab her arm, "Calm down! If you don’t want me to sit up with you, then struggle!"

Pu Sangzhi stopped her motion of getting up halfway and reluctantly glared at him, "Are you threatening me?"

Huo Feng grinned, "Just a little threat, nothing serious. I’m sure you love me too much to want to aggravate the injury on my back!"

Pu Sangzhi huffed, "Huo Feng!"

Huo Feng playfully responded, "Yes~ Brother is here~"

Pu Sangzhi expressed her displeasure, "Don’t talk dirty in the future!"

Huo Feng formed an ’o’ with his mouth, slickly responded, "Oh~"

After responding, he tugged at Pu Sangzhi’s sleeve and added, "Lie down, keep me company, I want you in my line of sight. Hurry~"

Reluctantly, Pu Sangzhi lay down again, sharing the same pillow with him.

This position wasn’t good...

Pu Sangzhi adjusted her position left and right, and feeling uncomfortable no matter what, she said, "Do you think lying is comfortable? I feel like it’s pressing on my heart..."

Huo Feng secretly chuckled, mumbling, "Told you, big chests can suffocate..."

Pu Sangzhi, as if hearing his mutter, asked, "What did you say?"

Huo Feng instantly wiped his smile off, frowned, and said, "I’m fine, flat chests aren’t afraid of pressure!"

Didn’t want to engage in this conversation at all.

Huo Feng was really sleazy! Too sleazy!

After a little joke, Huo Feng got serious and stretched out his hand, offering his wide palm in front of Pu Sangzhi, "Give me your hand; let’s interlock fingers for a while."

Pu Sangzhi turned to lie on her side, extended a small hand to him, and then, as usual, their fingers tightly interlocked. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲·𝗻𝗲𝘁

Huo Feng pulled her small hand closer to him, rested his chin on it, pressing it down.

Watching his goofy actions, Pu Sangzhi’s heart instantly turned tender like a river of spring water...

Pu Sangzhi sighed lightly, her expression turning serious, "Huo Feng, Pan Bo told me today that those people came to collect a debt."

Huo Feng raised an eyebrow, "Hmm?"

Pu Sangzhi gently knitted her brows, looking distressed, "I reported this matter to the police, and they said, since there is already evidence, I should bring my parents to sue the debt collection agency. The police meant that this kind of debt collection is criminal and we can seek compensation. And then..."

Pausing for a few seconds, Pu Sangzhi continued, "Then, I haven’t asked my dad yet... What do you think, how should I ask him?"

After listening, Huo Feng raised his eyebrow even higher, "There’s a problem, right?"

Pu Sangzhi asked, "What problem? Where is the problem?"

Huo Feng said, "There are problems everywhere! Big problems!"

Huo Feng put up a finger and explained, "First, it can’t be a debt collection agency. My grandfather made a call earlier today, and the response was very peaceful! Plus, I heard that your dad contacted the company..."

Pu Sangzhi was surprised again, "Ah?"

Huo Feng nodded, "Don’t believe me? Ask your dad. Call him later, and if he has already contacted the company himself, then the real debtor has shown up, and they wouldn’t dare send someone to pull such a dirty trick on a student like you!"

Pu Sangzhi was startled, suddenly thinking that Huo Feng’s words made a lot of sense!

Huo Feng nodded, "Second, if it really was a debt collection agency, would they be foolish enough to reveal themselves? It’s illegal in the first place. Even fools know, once you commit a crime, the victims become the guilty party. And such debt collection agencies loathe murdering people! In today’s lawful society, if debt collection leads to someone’s death, not only does the debt remain unrecovered, but compensation for the deceased’s family also becomes due. Unless someone is killed silently, without anyone knowing, then that would be a tactic of the underworld. But think about it, does sulfuric acid not kill people?"

The more Pu Sangzhi listened to Huo Feng’s words, the more she found them reasonable!

Even when debt collection agencies pushed hard before, at most they only injured people.

They wouldn’t want to kill anyone, and they were never that cruel...

Splashing someone with sulfuric acid, it doesn’t kill but it ruins them...

How deep must the hatred be to destroy someone ?

Huo Feng continued to analyze, "Sulfuric acid can’t kill, and if emergency treatment is prompt, not only does a life remain, there subsequently comes a pile of unpaid bills! Skin grafts, plastic surgery, all these costly procedures! If it was truly a debt collection agency at work, and your face got ruined, and you sued them, their troubles would multiply! Not only would they have to cover medical and cosmetic surgery bills, but they would also face social condemnation, online aggression. And to make it more serious, the company might not be able to continue its operations!"

Although Huo Feng’s explanation was somewhat exaggerated, it was not without logic.

After hearing his analysis, Pu Sangzhi felt much more at ease...

She patted her chest, exhaling deeply, and said, "Now that you’ve put it this way, I feel less pressured. I was previously thinking that I was responsible for dragging you all into this mess, I felt too ashamed to face you all..."

Huo Feng’s voice carried a hint of disapproval, "Here we go again! This inferiority complex! Thinking of abandoning me and running away, aren’t you!"

Pu Sangzhi hurriedly said, "Not at all! It’s just, just guilt..."

Huo Feng tightened his grip on her small hand that he was holding, "Guilt should not lead you to leave me. I, Huo Feng, had my back ruined for you, scarred beyond recognition. If you still don’t take responsibility, I might leap into the river and haunt you as a vengeful ghost for the rest of your life!"

Pu Sangzhi pursed her lips, slightly embarrassed, "But, thank you for sacrificing your back to save my face."

Huo Feng gave a sly smile, "Finally you realize, eh! Finally you understand how valuable my sacrifice was today! If I hadn’t used my back to block that bottle of sulfuric acid, it would be your face wrapped up ! You’d have no connection with beauty for the rest of your life!"

Pu Sangzhi kept reflecting on the incident, many times feeling fortunate and grateful.

Huo Feng’s arrival today was truly timely...

He said he was going to the Apple store to pick up his phone.

Otherwise today, Pu Sangzhi’s life might have been completely destroyed.

"It’s a good thing I acted fast and showed my back, the reflex action was too good!"

Huo Feng was very fortunate as he said, "In the past, whenever I, Huo Feng, jumped in to take punches or kicks, I always faced them head on! This time I don’t know why, but I turned my back! Ah! The wisest decision of my life! Otherwise, it would be me whose face got ruined!"

Pu Sangzhi also nodded luckily, while reaching up to gently stroke his cheek, "Yes. A stroke of luck in the misfortune... Thank goodness it wasn’t your face that got ruined..."

This might have been the first time Pu Sangzhi voluntarily touched his face...

Because, Huo Feng really couldn’t remember if she had ever touched his face before!

When her fingers touched his cheek, Huo Feng felt a sudden tightness in his body!

A tingly sensation spread from his cheek to his toes! He was so comfortable he wanted to let out a sound: Ah~

So, he really couldn’t help it, and let out an embarrassingly sensual "Ah~"...

Pu Sangzhi quickly withdrew her hand, her face turning red, "Hey, that’s disgusting!"

Huo Feng blissfully squinted his eyes, "So comfortable... Give me a few more loving strokes..."

Pu Sangzhi had actually wanted to touch him, to be close to him, and even to hug him...

But every time she mustered the courage to do so, he would disgust her to the point of retreating three feet!

Thinking this, Pu Sangzhi said, "Hmph, I don’t want to talk about this stuff with you!"

"Okay, let’s continue with the serious matters," he replied.

Then, with sharp eyes and a suddenly serious tone, Huo Feng said, "Actually, I have someone in mind, someone I suspect to be responsible."

Pu Sangzhi was taken aback and asked, "Who?"

Huo Feng said, "Han Feiyi."

Pu Sangzhi immediately argued, "Impossible! She’s still a student, what deep resentment could she have that would justify her doing this to me!"

Huo Feng countered, "A love rival, hatred born of love! That woman is obsessively in love with me, Huo Feng, naturally she dislikes you!"

Pu Sangzhi still shook her head, "Impossible. You don’t have that much charm, and she wouldn’t be that irrational. We’re all classmates, even the worst wouldn’t act to such an extreme. It’s not possible. Even the debt collection agency is more likely than her."

Huo Feng said, "Want to bet?"
