Chapter 701: Chapter 701

As the most responsible homeroom teacher in history, Huo Mingshan had been staring dryly at the monitor for half an hour.

It was not until Pu Sangzhi, fully clothed, emerged from the restroom that Huo Mingshan finally felt a bit relieved.

Then, with his mood not so great, Huo Mingshan secretly marked this rare day.

It was the first time he saw Sangzhi take the initiative with his son.

In some ways, Huo Mingshan still came out ahead.

The one-month summer job for teachers ended in the blink of an eye.

When Pu Sangzhi received her hefty salary of 7000 a month, the summer had passed through July and entered August.

In late August, around August 20th, it was Tsinghua’s early military training time.

Every freshman had to report to the school on August 20th to begin two weeks of military training. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩

At the beginning of August, Pu Sangzhi moved back to her home in Rui’an.

Huo Feng had wanted to catch the last bit of the vacation and take her on a small trip, but he was rejected for the nth time!

Because Pu Sangzhi had just finished a full month of work, she didn’t want to go out anymore, she wanted to rest.

Moreover, Pu Sangzhi had to report to Tsinghua a week earlier than Huo Feng.

As the top scholar of the Zhejiang Province college entrance examination, she was notified by the school to enroll early to participate in some training.

It’s said that the school selects a group of new students with excellent examination scores each year for early training. This way, they can take the lead in future military training and academic life.

Pu Sangzhi was selected as such a student, hence she had to enroll a week earlier than Huo Feng.

That meant she had to be in Tsinghua Campus by August 13th.

In this way, Pu Sangzhi, having ended her summer job in early August, actually had only about a dozen days left to enjoy herself.

Fortunately, she wasn’t very interested in fun activities.

A dozen days of free time was more than sufficient for her.

Huo Feng also knew she only had about a dozen days to play, so, during those remaining days, he would take the bus to Rui’an every day at 8 am and return to Tangxia by bus at 5 pm.

He went to the Ye Family daily, each day bringing different fruits, ice cream, drinks, and ingredients...

The Ye Family were now very familiar with his face and had a great impression of him!

On the morning of August 12th, Huo Feng’s family arrived at the Ye Family with three large suitcases!

What a grand occasion!

Pu Sangzhi, Chen Huifen, Ye Qingcao, and Xu Hui were all so surprised that they were speechless!

At 7:30, the Huo Family entered the Ye Family home, Huo Mingshan and Shen Yu sat in the living room, and chatted amicably with Chen Huifen and Xu Hui.

Only then did Chen Huifen and Xu Hui learn that Huo Feng had specially persuaded his parents to go to Beijing with Pu Sangzhi, planning a week-long trip for the whole family!

After a week, Huo Feng’s parents would return, while Huo Feng would directly start his school and military training.

Everything was perfectly arranged!

Chen Huifen was extremely pleased with her in-laws and didn’t have a single complaint about Huo Feng!

Their family treated Pu Sangzhi as their own daughter!

Encountering such a kind and enthusiastic family was truly fortunate!

"Sangzhi’s mom, we’ve been talking about us the whole time; what are your plans?" Huo Mingshan asked Chen Huifen.

His question made Chen Huifen apologetic; she had to admit, "In our family, Sangzhi’s father can’t come back either. I originally wanted to accompany Sangzhi to Beijing, to take her to school. She said she didn’t need me to accompany her that far and she was also worried about me coming back on my own. So, I’m planning to take her to the station. Once she arrives in Beijing, there will be someone to meet her."

Pu Sangzhi was already very independent.

Going to Beijing alone was not a problem.

Moreover, once there, Brother Ye Xi would be there waiting for her, and he would take her directly to Tsinghua.

"So it’s like that. So you have relatives in Beijing too."

Huo Mingshan laughed, "That kid Huo Feng keeps worrying, insisting that he must accompany her. We just said, since we haven’t gone out for a long time, it’s a good opportunity to tour Beijing, and we can travel with Sangzhi. It’ll be good company on the road."

"Huo Feng is such a good child."

Chen Huifen nodded, smiling, "Mr. Huo, we really appreciate your raising such a good child, and for your family’s kindness towards Sangzhi. For this trip, we entrust Sangzhi to your care, and I really thank you for that."

Shen Yu also spoke from the side, "That’s nothing, our Xiaofeng being able to be good friends with Sangzhi is his good fortune. Honestly, if it weren’t for the girl Sangzhi, Xiaofeng probably wouldn’t have gotten into Tsinghua. He likely wouldn’t have made it to even a third-rate university."

The elders from both sides praised each other and were mutually satisfied.

The two families, two children, were simply as perfect together as if made by heaven!

This caused Xu Hui, sitting aside, to become truly envious and even a bit jealous!

Xu Hui thought to herself: If only she could find such heavenly in-laws!

But then looking at her own daughter...

Compared to Sangzhi’s demeanor, her daughter didn’t match up well, which made Xu Hui silently retract her thoughts and tell herself: stop dreaming!

While the elders were chatting animatedly in the living room, Pu Sangzhi, Huo Feng, and Ye Qingcao were staying in the room.

With school yet to start, Ye Qingcao, watching Pu Sangzhi busily packing her suitcase, sat bored on the suitcase, looking up at Pu Sangzhi...

For a long while, Ye Qingcao blurted out, "You all are going to Beijing, and my brother is also in Beijing, I really want to go too..."

As she was packing clothes, Pu Sangzhi glanced at her pitiful look and couldn’t help but chuckle, "Brother Ye Xi is very busy this summer, he won’t have time to play with you. You should come to Beijing next summer vacation to hang out with me!"

Ye Qingcao sighed sorrowfully, "Ah, it’s always me visiting you... you never come to Hangzhou to see me."

Pu Sangzhi smiled and reached out to pinch Ye Qingcao’s cheek, "Alright, then I’ll come to Hangzhou to visit you next summer vacation."

"That sounds more like it!"

Ye Qingcao nodded vigorously, clasping her hands together, "I hope by the time you two come next year, I will already be my crush’s girlfriend! Ah~ Then, I can also flaunt my love in front of you both!"

Meanwhile, sitting on the bed with his phone, Huo Feng let out a ruthless chuckle, "Maybe by the time you go to see Yan Ji, Yan Ji will apologize regretfully to you: ’Sorry, I like ugly girls! Your current look is too commonplace, I’m not interested~’"

Ye Qingcao screamed at Huo Feng, clearly provoked, "That won’t happen! He wouldn’t like ugly girls! Don’t look at the fact that he’s surrounded by unattractive girls, he hasn’t dated anyone!"

Huo Feng smirked, "That means he hasn’t yet picked out the ugliest one to date."

Ye Qingcao shouted again in anger, "You’re talking nonsense! It’s not like that at all! It’s because..."

Ye Qingcao couldn’t even articulate it!

She had no idea why Yan Siyuan liked to deal with ugly girls yet didn’t want a girlfriend.

Could it really be because he hasn’t picked out the ugliest one yet?

If that was the case, Ye Qingcao might as well go disfigure herself!

"Sangzhi, are you done packing?"

Huo Feng called out cheerfully to Pu Sangzhi.

Pu Sangzhi responded without even turning her head.

Huo Feng grinned and said, "I was hoping you’d turn around and kiss me."

Pu Sangzhi answered without turning back.

Huo Feng couldn’t help but frown, "We’re about to go to Tsinghua together, such a meaningful occasion, and you won’t even entertain a little ceremony!"

Ye Qingcao, feeling disgusted, stuck out her tongue and felt goosebumps all over her body...

Pu Sangzhi, however, appeared unfazed and casually hooked the corner of her mouth back at him, "Busy packing here. We have a half-past ten train ticket."

Huo Feng checked his phone, really helpless, "It’s already past eight now. What were you doing last night? I finished packing early yesterday and came over to your place before seven! And you’re still dragging your feet!"

Pu Sangzhi replied unflinchingly, "I wrote a list last night, and got up at six this morning to follow it. Timing is just right, no problem."

Huo Feng was utterly speechless from her bluffing.

Huo Feng moaned again, "Haven’t we gone almost a fortnight without a kiss? Miss my lips?"

Pu Sangzhi frowned silently!

Huo Feng continued, "I’ve still been working out every day recently, abs are rock solid, let you feel."

Pu Sangzhi couldn’t help but laugh and cry.

Huo Feng went on, "Ah, still ignoring me. You’ve become more like a cold fish~"

Pu Sangzhi finally couldn’t help but reprimand him, "Enough already, why don’t you go out and spend time with the elders?"

Huo Feng refused, "No way, I won’t go out unless you kiss me."

Pu Sangzhi continued to ignore him.

At ten o’clock, Chen Huifen, Pu Sangzhi, Xu Hui, Ye Qingcao, along with Huo Feng and his family, all arrived at the Wenzhou Railway Station.

Inside the station, Chen Huifen bid farewell to Pu Sangzhi.

Having relied on each other for so many years, naturally, it was hard for her to send Pu Sangzhi away.

She held Pu Sangzhi’s hand and gave measured advice about being careful on the road, studying hard, not overworking, taking good care of herself, and other instructions...

Each flat instruction warmed Pu Sangzhi’s heart.

"Mom, I’ll be leaving soon. When I’m not here, you also need to take good care of yourself."

Pu Sangzhi replied while firmly holding Chen Huifen’s hand.

"Don’t worry about mom. But mom has one very important piece of advice that you must listen to,"

With that, Chen Huifen leaned close to Pu Sangzhi, whispering in her ear, "In university, you must keep a close eye on Xiaofeng, seize him well!"

Pu Sangzhi, hearing this, just laughed, "Mm."
