Chapter 661: Chapter 661
Huo Feng’s deep bond with his ten brothers was known worldwide!
After Huo Feng entered high school, he became infamously associated with Longxiang School, along with those ten brothers!
Being the School Tyrant for three years in middle school, high school brought the younger brothers along to school, claiming the title of School Tyrant...
Such a Huo Feng, such a group of brothers, such a gang of seemingly mismatched youths...
Yet at this moment, they brought an unexpected touch of emotion to the entire audience!
The whole crowd of teachers and students watched the storms between these eleven people and Huo Feng, witnessing this brotherhood as strong as iron!
It truly lived up to the saying...no society, no brotherhood!
Perhaps only in this group of ’mismatched’ individuals could one see true loyalty, a friendship that touches one’s heart and soul.
Pu Sangzhi was moved to tears by this brotherly bond...
The class instructor, Zheng Qiu, was also touched by the brotherhood of the eleven, with tears welling up in her eyes.
Huo Mingshan had not expected Huo Feng and his gang of ’ne’er-do-wells’ fellow students to share such deep emotions.
At this moment, Huo Mingshan was silently sighing, feeling more than ever that he didn’t understand Huo Feng...
No, perhaps he didn’t understand him at all.
In his eyes, Huo Feng had always been like trash, a pest, scum!
But in fact, to most people, Huo Feng was good, excellent, loyal, perfect.
Huo Mingshan internally apologized for his years of misunderstanding Huo Feng.
At this moment, he admitted his son was different, his son was excellent! Certainly better than him! More successful too...
Since weaning, Huo Feng had rarely cried so fiercely...
Sometimes, people really are... This update ıs available on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭⚑𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⚑𝕟𝕖𝕥
Even if they are strong, they are easily moved by emotions!
Then, even as strong as Huo Feng, even if splashed with sulfuric acid, he wouldn’t shed a tear, could not escape the weakness that feelings bring.
He couldn’t control his tears, his eyes reddened, and teardrops fell one by one...
He hugged Pan Bo, hugged Gu Yang, hugged Lin Yuhao...
He hugged each brother tightly, heavily patted their backs, and said deeply, "I’m sorry, brothers!"
It was an apology to each of them!
Because he, Huo Feng, had abandoned them.
Initially, it was he, Huo Feng, who led them down the path of being student delinquents.
Latterly, it was also he, Huo Feng, who left them behind to follow Pu Sangzhi to Tsinghua.
The mood of their brotherly bond was as easy then as it was difficult now!
Huo Feng regarded this separation as his dereliction, as his irresponsibility!
No matter what the future held, he was determined to make amends to them, to reunite with them, never to abandon them again!
"I’m sorry...I’m sorry..."
Lastly, Huo Feng stood in front of his ten brothers, took a deep breath, and wiped away the unyielding tears from his face.
He deeply bowed to the ten brothers and said, "I’m sorry!"
In front of them, the ten tearful brothers, seeing him apologize so formally, couldn’t help but laugh through their melancholy...
"Enough, Brother Feng. Stop being so formal."
Nearby, Zheng Sen patted Huo Feng on the arm.
After standing up, Huo Feng’s red eyes swept over those ten familiar, adorable faces, and not knowing what to say, he laughed...
Directly opposite, Pan Bo lifted his chin and gestured behind Huo Feng.
Then, Huo Feng turned his head and saw that Pu Sangzhi behind him was crying more dramatically than any other man on the scene!
Huo Feng chuckled and stepped forward, hugging her tightly...
Still recovering, Pu Sangzhi, holding him, started to sob softly against his chest.
"Why are you crying? You haven’t lost anything."
Huo Feng gently stroked the back of her head, his deep, magnetic voice softly saying in her ear, "You’ve gained me. You are the ultimate winner."
The more he said that, the sadder Pu Sangzhi felt, and she couldn’t stop crying.
She suddenly felt very guilty.
She had something precious without even knowing it...
Huo Feng, desired by the whole world, adored by so many brothers, was once treated by her as nothing more than chaff, with disregard and disdain, completely taken for granted.
In the end, she still had him.
And those brothers who valued him most had to part ways with him...
Pu Sangzhi had been thinking, if during the three years of high school, Huo Feng hadn’t been so devoted to her, perhaps he would have ended up like in middle school, attending the same university as his brothers, continuing their carefree and joyful lives.
It was her, Pu Sangzhi, who had led his life astray, it was she who had stolen him from his brothers, it was she, Pu Sangzhi...
At that moment, Pu Sangzhi cried sorrowfully.
At eight o’clock, the banquet hall began to gradually empty as classmates left.
But many classmates remained, continuing to drink and chat, feeling it was too early to leave and a waste to go back now.
Meanwhile, Huo Feng and his ten "sons" went to take pictures.
Pu Sangzhi, Zhu Dandan, Wen Miao, and Dai Ya’an, the four dorm mates, sat together, drinking and chatting comfortably.
Pu Sangzhi, who was feeling rather down, silently drank a lot of alcohol while her friends weren’t paying attention...
Elsewhere, the two class teachers, Huo Mingshan and Zheng Qiu, sat together at a table just for them, deeply engrossed in conversation about their respective students.
Neither of them drank much; as teachers, they couldn’t leave first.
As class teachers, they needed to be the last to leave, ensuring all students were safely sent off.
Zheng Qiu spoke highly of Huo Feng in front of Huo Mingshan, praising him extensively, so much so that in her eyes, Huo Feng was the perfect student...
Huo Mingshan, hearing such praise, couldn’t help but show a proud face!
Yet, internally, he felt somewhat ashamed...
Considering that, despite being Huo Feng’s father, he knew less about his son than others did.
He had always thought that others saw Huo Feng as a fake angel wearing a mask, aware only he knew what kind of devil Huo Feng truly was!
Huo Mingshan thought, perhaps he had been too prejudiced for too long.
Huo Feng, that boy, was not really bad at heart, just a bit mischievous.
"Mr. Huo, I don’t mind if you laugh, but in all my years of teaching, this is the first time I’ve received flowers from a student."
Zheng Qiu gently touched the bouquet Huo Feng had given her, her face filled with a gratified smile, "I’ve always felt high school students aren’t difficult to manage. Yet, I’ve never had a very deep affection for any. Huo Feng is loyal and passionate, a man of great character. If you treat him well, he will definitely reciprocate. This quality is really commendable, a rarity among many young people today. Simply put, he’s not selfish. He’s generous and has a grand vision. Eventually, he’s bound to accomplish great things."
Huo Mingshan laughed at her words, "Ah, it seems I’m the one who can’t see him clearly now. You all have your own understanding of him. I’ve raised him all these years, yet it feels like I’ve never really understood him."
"Take your time, Mr. Huo."
Zheng Qiu turned to Huo Mingshan, "You have a gem of a son, just lacking some experience. Time will hone him and let you gradually see his brilliance. Just like when he first started high school, many class teachers didn’t want to take Huo Feng. I took him reluctantly. Ultimately, he gave me such a surprising reward."
Thinking back to the first year of high school...
When Huo Feng first enrolled, a rumor spread from nowhere, making all grade-level teachers aware that Huo Feng was a problem student.
At that time, Huo Feng was like a football being kicked around in the teachers’ WeChat group...
Finally, Huo Mingshan bit the bullet, made a firm decision, and randomly assigned him to a class, which ended up being class seven led by Zheng Qiu.
At that time, when Zheng Qiu learned that Huo Mingshan was Huo Feng’s guardian, she was both shocked and apprehensive, afraid she wouldn’t be able to discipline Huo Feng.
Later, Huo Mingshan specifically told her not to worry about his face, to punish as needed. Moreover, he asked her to keep a secret for him, not letting others know that Huo Feng was his son...
All those past circumstances were still fresh in the minds of Huo Mingshan and Zheng Qiu.
Little did they expect, the situation today would be completely different.
Reflecting on this, Zheng Qiu smiled contentedly, "Mr. Huo, Huo Feng is truly the best student I’ve ever taught."
Huo Mingshan also smiled in satisfaction, "As long as you think so. I’ve troubled you these past three years."
Zheng Qiu shook her head, "I should thank you, Mr. Huo, for entrusting such an outstanding son to me, and inadvertently also sending the best student for him to mentor. That’s what shaped Huo Feng as he is now."
At this point, Huo Mingshan felt even more proud, "Ha ha, I actually didn’t intend that. But... now it seems, not bad at all!"
Zheng Qiu laughed, "Of course it’s not bad. These three years, not only did you gain a good son, but you also got a good daughter-in-law along the way!"
Huo Mingshan laughed heartily, waving his hand, "It’s too early to say that, way too early... ha ha..."
Actually, it wasn’t early.
Now, Huo Mingshan was very hopeful that Huo Feng would soon bring Sangzhi home!
