Chapter 624: Chapter 624

Pu Sangzhi quickly arrived at Huo Feng’s hospital room, carrying her backpack as she knocked on his door.

The room was eerily silent, unlike Huo Feng’s usual style.

Pu Sangzhi quietly pushed the door open and walked a few steps inside before she realized Huo Feng was lying on the bed, asleep.

There was no one else in the room. Not a single elder...

Pu Sangzhi took off her backpack, walked over to his side, and was about to sit down on a stool she had moved next to him when suddenly, Huo Feng yelled out, "Ah!"

Pu Sangzhi, startled, screamed too and stepped back, so shaken that the stool she moved fell to the ground!

What followed was Huo Feng’s ruthless, loud laughter.

He seemed to find it very amusing because he had tricked her and was laughing very loudly.

Annoyed and embarrassed, Pu Sangzhi stood by the bed with her hands on her hips, glaring at him angrily...

Half a minute later, Huo Feng finally stopped laughing and reached out his hand to her, "Come, come, sit next to me."

Pu Sangzhi slapped his palm, angrily picked up the stool, and then sat at the foot of his bed, "I’ll just sit here!"

Huo Feng frowned, turned his head, and called her, "Stop being sulky, come over here. Hurry~"

Pu Sangzhi turned her head away, ignoring him.

Huo Feng waved at her, "Hurry over here, or I’ll come to you. Do you really have the heart to let a sick person struggle in bed?"

After he finished speaking, Pu Sangzhi immediately felt a pang of soft-heartedness.

Considering he was sick, and also pretty stubborn!

If she didn’t agree, he would actually start thrashing about in bed until he rolled next to her.

Pu Sangzhi naturally did not want him to struggle, so she moved the stool reluctantly and sat back next to him.

No sooner had she sat down than Huo Feng patted the bed next to him, "Come, lie down next to me."

"No, it’s uncomfortable to lie on my stomach," Pu Sangzhi refused.

Huo Feng then said, "Then lie down, I didn’t ask you to lie on your stomach. It would suffocate me just watching you do that."

Pu Sangzhi immediately realized what he meant, and, annoyed, pursed her lips, not taking the bait.

However, she obediently lay down on the bed.

Because she knew that sometimes it was better to compromise with Huo Feng earlier.

Otherwise, it was a waste of words if the compromise came after a long argument.

Thus, Pu Sangzhi lay back beside Huo Feng, while Huo Feng himself lay on his stomach on the other half of the bed. Read complete versıon only at 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝕟𝕖𝕥

Resting his head on the pillow, he hugged the pillow, squinted his phoenix eyes, and stared at her with a grin...

Pu Sangzhi checked her phone for the time and then said, "It’s 1 o’clock now. We’ll nap for an hour, then be awake for half an hour. We’ll get up at 2:30 and I’ll tutor you."

Huo Feng frowned and protested, "Why start with such boring talk? Set aside some time, let me talk to you, have a chat."

Pu Sangzhi checked the time again, "Then we’ll chat for 15 minutes and nap for 45 minutes."

Huo Feng’s mouth formed an O-shape, clearly unable to believe that she valued their time together so little!

"What shall we talk about?" Pu Sangzhi turned her head and asked him.

Huo Feng quickly closed his mouth and seriously said, "It’s been a week, did you miss me at all?"

Pu Sangzhi knew he would ask such unserious topics.

So, she ignored his topic and changed the subject, "Hey, tell me why you dealt with Han Feiyi’s matter like that?"

Huo Feng raised his eyebrow, "Did I handle it wrong?"

Pu Sangzhi shook her head, "I just want to know why you chose to resolve it this way? What benefits did you receive?"

Huo Feng recalled the situation that day and couldn’t help but chuckle, "I took 1 million Yuan."

Pu Sangzhi was skeptical, "1 million Yuan? Compensation? Was that your demand?"

Huo Feng nodded seriously, "Indeed, I demanded 1 million!"

million Yuan, to students, was indeed a large amount.

However, Pu Sangzhi wasn’t sure whether this amount of compensation was appropriate for the extent of his injuries.

In her mind, she thought of some social news and wondered how much others were compensated. Was 1 million too little or too much?

So she asked Huo Feng, "Do you think this 1 million Yuan was a reasonable amount? Did you lose out or gain?"

Huo Feng curled his lips and said, "I probably gained! I just blurted out that figure on the spot. Normally, the other party should have bargained, and then I would have slightly lowered it. Unexpectedly, they agreed immediately! I even doubted whether I had quoted too low! But raising the price on the spot isn’t good either, right?"

Pu Sangzhi found it even more incredible, "You said they agreed immediately? No way, 1 million? That’s no small amount..."

Huo Feng nodded, "Yeah, definitely not a small amount. But later I discovered that old Han had used some tricks to make the Cai Family pay over 600,000. He himself only paid about 300,000, oh, and the medical fees as well. So, both families being involved in the incident made it simpler; they compensated together, making it stress-free!"

"Ah, to think it could work like that..."

Pu Sangzhi was speechless, "Then what are you planning to do with that 1 million? Making such exorbitant compensation demands, didn’t your family say anything?"

"Well, that day my mom didn’t say anything, and neither did grandpa. I just mentioned it offhand, thinking the adults would stop me and tell me to be more polite. But they didn’t! And old Han agreed too!"

Huo Feng frowned again and said, "That day, I really felt like I had suddenly grown up! Such a big decision left up to me! I’ve been doubting myself these past few days, wondering if I asked for too little money? But it was agreed upon in front of my grandfather, so I definitely couldn’t jack up the price."

Pu Sangzhi couldn’t believe that it could be handled this way...

She sighed softly, "Such messiness..."

Then, she asked again, "So you mean, you only demanded 1 million Yuan and that they drop out of school?"

Huo Feng waved his hand, "I demanded they pay compensation and apologize, especially in front of the entire school! I also pushed for dropping out of school a bit. I didn’t expect Han Feiyi to agree so readily! I guess she didn’t want to stay at Longxiang either; even if I hadn’t brought it up, she probably would have left anyway. So, it didn’t really matter whether I mentioned it or not. How about that, am I merciful enough? Did I give Han Lei enough face? Have I repaid the favor?"

Pu Sangzhi laughed upon hearing this, "So you mean, you chose not to sue them to save face for Han Lei?"

"Half and half," he replied.

Suddenly, Huo Feng grabbed her hand and brought it to his lips for a kiss, "That’s what I was thinking. If you were the one injured, I would spare no expense to sue them, and I would absolutely crush them! But, since it was me who got injured. I didn’t want to go through all those troublesome procedures, spending half a year in a lawsuit for some compensation. I just needed my conditions met."

Pu Sangzhi nodded, "Hey, what about Wen Miao? Did she get any compensation?"

Huo Feng said, "I guess old Han directly dealt with her as well. I’m not sure about her demands, but they definitely also talked privately. Her injuries weren’t severe, neither in terms of burn area nor intensity compared to mine, so a lawsuit wouldn’t have been worth it."

Pu Sangzhi, hearing his analysis, found it somewhat unbelievable that such a big issue was decided by him, just a kid, in his family.

But, his decision turned out quite well.

Pu Sangzhi thought, perhaps the parents also thought his decision was good, that’s why they let such a young kid make such a big decision?

Seeing that she hadn’t reacted much after hearing so much, Huo Feng raised his hand and flicked her nose, "Why not praise me?"

Pu Sangzhi squeezed her eyebrows, but her lips curled up involuntarily, "Praise you for earning 1 million? Earned at the risk of your life?"

Huo Feng flashed a content smile, "Earning 1 million with my life on the line is worth it! Now I need to think carefully about how to spend this money! Man, 1 million! How about I buy you?"

Pu Sangzhi slapped his shoulder, "Nonsense! I don’t believe that this money will end up in the hands of a student like you!"

"Haha, I don’t believe it either."

Huo Feng said with a laugh, "I’ll let my dad keep it for me, as starting capital for future business ventures. Or I could let my grandad handle it, let him invest it for me. My grandad is great at that, he can definitely make a profit!"

As Huo Feng joyfully discussed the ways to spend the 1 million, he couldn’t possibly imagine that he wouldn’t see a penny of it.

After all, he was still a child. The arm can’t twist the thigh...

In the end, all the money was managed by old Huo.

As an old-fashioned and incorruptible adult, old Huo returned the money in a different form...

While Huo Feng thought everyone was treating him as an adult, actually, they just wanted to let him vent.

In the eyes of all the elders, he was still a child...
