Chapter 638: Chapter 638

That night, Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng chatted back and forth, all the way until 3 AM...

At 3 AM, they were both so tired that they finally fell asleep together.

Normally, Pu Sangzhi would sleep on a fold-out bed.

But now, the floor was covered with candles, which would be a hassle to clean up.

So today, she didn’t sleep on the fold-out bed but lay beside him, resting her head on Huo Feng’s arm.

It had been another eventful day, but at least it ended quite nicely.

Pu Sangzhi slept very soundly in Huo Feng’s warm embrace, dreamless throughout the night.

The next morning at 8 AM, they were rudely awakened by the medical staff making their rounds.

It was quite an awkward scene!

During rounds, the chief physician led a few junior doctors and upon seeing the image of the two of them sleeping in each other’s arms amidst the disarray, he even contemplated whether to wake them up or not.

However, making rounds was a doctor’s duty.

So, in the end, they woke them up.

Waking up under the gaze of so many eyes, Pu Sangzhi felt as if she’d lost face all the way to the Pacific Ocean.

Her cheeks flushed for a long time, and it wasn’t until Huo Feng had completed the discharge formalities and they walked out of the hospital with his suitcase that she felt she’d escaped the land of controversy.

Huo Feng’s back wound had mostly healed, and the chief physician said there was no need for him to remain hospitalized, as resting at home would be sufficient.

So, Huo Feng took the initiative to proceed with his discharge.

By the time he finished his discharge process and took Pu Sangzhi out of the hospital, Shen Yu had already arrived in his car.

Huo Feng handed all his luggage over to Shen Yu to take home.

Afterward, accompanied by Pu Sangzhi, he went to the piano store that Yan Siyuan had recommended to rent a piano.

During their chat the previous night, Pu Sangzhi had told him that Yan Siyuan had long revealed Huo Feng’s birthday to her, and the gift he had for Huo Feng was already in her hands.

That piano studio practice card worth 250 yuan, Pu Sangzhi insisted that since she’d accepted it, she’d use it.

So on Sunday, she brought Huo Feng to the piano store.

Huo Feng liked this arrangement.

It was certainly better than the library at least!

Originally, he had braced himself for an entire day of library dates with her.

Yan Ji had cleverly provided him this alternative pathway! Truly a brother, loyal and true!

They went to the piano store after having lunch, arriving at around 1:00 PM.

By a curious coincidence, at the piano store, they ran into Yan Siyuan and Sister Hetun, Ya Xiaoxiao, who were also there for piano lessons!

Thanks to having attended the concert together, they had reached a level of acquaintance.

Therefore, when running into each other at the entrance of the piano store, the four exchanged greetings, creating a warm atmosphere.

It was a large piano store that not only sold pianos but also offered piano lessons and rented practice rooms—a very well-diversified establishment.

Yan Siyuan and Sister Hetun, Ya Xiaoxiao, were there for lessons, while Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng had reserved a practice room in another location.

At the front desk, each party informed the staff about their respective destinations and received their room access cards.

Just before they went their separate ways, Huo Feng asked Yan Siyuan, "What time is your class over later?"

Yan Siyuan, carrying his bag, arched his eyebrow but did not answer Huo Feng’s question directly. Instead, he retorted, "Why? Treating me to a meal?"

Huo Feng outright refused, "Why would I treat you to a meal? You’re overthinking it! It’s my birthday today, shouldn’t you be the one treating me instead?"

Yan Siyuan snorted with laughter, throwing the same line back at him, "You’re overthinking! I’ve already given you the gift, aren’t you here to enjoy my present?"

"This is a thoughtful gift."

Huo Feng gave a thumbs up in praise, "You’re a real brother, Yan Ji. To casually give me a practice card worth 250. Just wait for me to gift you something even more valuable next year!"

Yan Siyuan said, "And no need to give back anything too expensive, I like the idea of you owing me a bit."

Huo Feng chuckled and playfully hit his chest, "You’re getting more and more generous, Yan Ji! I take back my previous doubts about you being stingy. As a second-generation rich kid, you are quite generous indeed!"

"Hey, that practice card..."

Just at that moment, Sister Hetun, Ya Xiaoxiao, suddenly recognized the practice card Huo Feng was holding, "Isn’t that what they give us when we buy piano lessons?"

As soon as Ya Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Yan Siyuan awkwardly coughed twice.

Clearly, it was an indicative cough...

Anyone could see that this was more than a hint!

"Yeah, right, Yan Ji!"

Huo Feng couldn’t help but flare up on the spot, "I had just praised you for being generous, and now you’ve exposed yourself by giving me complimentary gifts as a birthday present! How can you be so stingy!"

Pu Sangzhi felt embarrassed on the side...

She also thought to herself: How could Yan Siyuan be so miserly? To actually give away freebies as gifts...

Even if her family was poor, Pu Sangzhi had never given away freebies.

During her poorest times, she would still carefully prepare handmade gifts for Huo Feng.

Yan Siyuan really shamed the name of a rich second generation!

"Even if it’s a freebie..."

Yan Siyuan furrowed his brows and said with a straight face and stiff back, "It doesn’t decrease the value of this card. Go ask the front desk if renting a practice room for two hours isn’t 50 yuan? This card can be used 5 times, the original price is 250!"

Ya Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but ask, "That’s not right, isn’t it a 10-use practice card? Didn’t you buy the same course as me?"

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Yan Siyuan’s face drastically changed, and he coughed even louder.

Huo Feng reacted even more strongly, "Not only are you giving me a freebie, but you’re also giving me one that’s been used 5 times! A 10-use practice card and you only left five for me, then handed it over as my birthday present! How shameless can you be!"

Turning around, Yan Siyuan patted Ya Xiaoxiao on the shoulder, "Off to class."

"You stop right there!"

Huo Feng took a few steps forward and blocked Yan Siyuan’s path with his arm, "Do you still want to be brothers with me, Yan Ji?"

Yan Siyuan’s expression turned serious, and he tried to stand even taller, then said, "Fine. Besides this card, if you want to buy a piano for Pu Sangzhi, I can talk to the boss and get a discount with my name. That counts as saving some money, right?"

"You’re unbelievable..."

Huo Feng was so shocked his nostrils flared up, "I’ve never met anyone as stingy as you! Are you really a rich second generation? Fake, aren’t you!"

Huo Feng poked Yan Siyuan in the chest with a finger, "You’re treating today, you’ve got to! I won’t be satisfied until I bilk you for a meal!"

Yan Siyuan was deeply hurt by Huo Feng’s questioning.

He took a deep breath, turned around, and said to Ya Xiaoxiao, "Thanks to you, I have to treat this guy to a meal now. Lost a 250 yuan practice card, and still have to treat him to dinner."

Ya Xiaoxiao, feeling blamed by Yan Siyuan, was also very upset.

Realizing she had misspoken, she could only think of making amends, "Then, shall I treat you guys to a meal?"

Yan Siyuan softened his tone again, "It’s his problem for being shameless, we shouldn’t let a girl treat. I’ll treat him."

"I’m really sorry, Yan classmate!"

Ya Xiaoxiao, tears of gratitude streaming down, bowed her head in apology, "Let me treat you guys then, it was my fault for speaking carelessly just now."

"No way! You didn’t say anything wrong!" Google seaʀᴄh 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩

Huo Feng waved his hand at Ya Xiaoxiao, "You exposed Yan Ji, you’re not wrong! You did well, I’ll treat you to a meal another day!"

Yan Siyuan suddenly agreed, "No time like the present. You treat today then."

Huo Feng treating to a meal?

It took Huo Feng a good few seconds to realize the cunning trap Yan Siyuan had set!

Huo Feng responded with one word to Yan Siyuan.

Yan Siyuan was even more direct, "You said it, so I’m off to class now."

Huo Feng quickly stopped Yan Siyuan, "Quit your nonsense there! You’re treating to a meal! You! It’s settled!"

At this moment, Ya Xiaoxiao jumped in again, "How about I join Yan classmate in treating you guys? It’s my fault for speaking out of turn and causing him trouble."

Huo Feng contradicted her, "You revealed Yan Ji, I should be treating you to a meal!"

Yan Siyuan took the opportunity to say, "Perfect, let’s all treat together. Go dutch."
