Chapter 705: Chapter 705
Only the two of them were in the room.
The bedside lamp cast a warm yellow glow, dim and hazy, lending the atmosphere an ambiguous and enchanting charm.
Pu Sangzhi melted into Huo Feng’s embrace, her delicate fingers tracing across his chest, feeling the firmness of his muscles...such an unexpectedly pleasant sensation...
She even couldn’t help but pinch his pectoral muscle, unable to get a grip—it was so hard!
However, it just made Huo Feng, who was deeply kissing her, burst into laughter...
"Pfft," Huo Feng chuckled, breaking the moment, a burst of warm breath spraying onto Pu Sangzhi’s face, and instantly she was smiling too.
"What are you doing..."
Huo Feng’s voice, husky and low, resonated right by her lips, "so naughty...hmm?"
That "hmm" of his, with its teasing lilt at the end, seemed incredibly enticing, as if he were flirting with her.
Pu Sangzhi’s cheeks felt hot, and her lips involuntarily curved upwards...
In a moment, his kisses made her entire body tingle, her form so soft it was as if she would melt into his embrace...
This kiss lasted for a long, long time, almost unable to stop...
The atmosphere, the bed, and her unresisting, compliant self...
All of it seemed to indulge Huo Feng in his mischief.
Yet, there was that line within Huo Feng himself...
A line that always held him back!
So in the end, Huo Feng, unable to hold it in any longer, hoarsely told Pu Sangzhi, "I’ll go to the bathroom..."
Only then did their entwined kiss break as he rushed into the washroom...
Pu Sangzhi, left alone on the bed, quietly wrapped herself up in the covers, her face flushed and shyly hiding the lower half behind the blanket, leaving only her bright, crescent-moon eyes visible.
From the bathroom, the sound of running water could be heard.
Pu Sangzhi knew that Huo Feng had definitely gone to take a cold shower.
She had read a fair share of romance novels and, despite not having experienced it, knew that when the male leads couldn’t bear it anymore, they would take a cold shower to calm themselves down.
So now, seeing Huo Feng rush into the washroom so abruptly, that’s what Pu Sangzhi assumed he was doing.
Her heart felt warm and fuzzy.
Thinking of how Huo Feng, who typically clamored for kisses and cuddles, was actually protecting her at a crucial moment, how deep down he was a gentleman... how wonderful!
With these thoughts, Pu Sangzhi quietly giggled under the covers, her cheeks aglow with delight.

After Huo Feng came out of the bathroom, he took a cold shower to keep up appearances.
As he slid into bed with a chill still clinging to him, he immediately wrapped an arm around Pu Sangzhi’s slender waist, pressing his chest to her back, and tenderly leaned his chin on her shoulder...
"Hmm...sorry for the wait."
Huo Feng’s voice was lazy, "You didn’t fall asleep, did you? Waiting for me, right?"
Pu Sangzhi’s voice was soft.
As he spoke, Huo Feng’s hands were already on her, gently turning her over.
Huo Feng had wanted to take a good look at her, but Pu Sangzhi was already burrowing into his embrace, with her face nestled against his chest, holding him tightly.
Huo Feng immediately wrapped his arms around her, one palm cradling the back of her head, gently stroking her hair, "Wife..."
"Mhm," Pu Sangzhi’s muffled voice responded.
"I suddenly thought of a question just now, and I really wanted to ask you," Huo Feng said.
Pu Sangzhi: "What is it?"
Huo Feng asked: "Aren’t you allergic to mangoes as well? If we were to break up one day, would you eat a mango for me?"
Pu Sangzhi was startled, "Are you crazy? That could kill me!"
Pu Sangzhi’s mango allergy was quite severe; eating too much could affect her breathing—there would be no good outcome.
She always treated the fruit as taboo, daring not even to touch it! And here was Huo Feng, saying such a thing!
Tentatively, Huo Feng asked: "What if, I mean, just what if..."
Pu Sangzhi thought about it seriously, then answered him just as seriously: "If we were really breaking up, I wouldn’t do it. But if it was just a big fight, and I still wanted to make up with you, then maybe I would do it, but only if I could be certain that someone would save me, preferably you’d be the one to save me."
Her analysis was very rational, but Huo Feng could also hear how important he was to her.
She was willing to eat mangoes for him, which, rounded up, meant she was willing to risk her life for him...
And thinking further, it meant she was willing to risk her life to win back Huo Feng!
With this thought, Huo Feng suddenly felt a warm flutter in his chest, overwhelmed with emotion!
He immediately lowered his head to look at her, cupping her small face in his palm and lifting it upwards, his deep black eyes gazing into hers, "It seems like you’ve also fallen for me deeply enough to do something foolish. To dare to try something life-threatening, I’m impressed!"
Pu Sangzhi felt there was something odd about his statement and frowned, "What do you mean?"
Huo Feng’s lips curved slightly, "What I mean is, it’s enough just to talk about it, I won’t actually give you a chance to eat a mango."
As he spoke, he couldn’t control his feelings and kissed her again, capturing her red lips and drawing deeply from them.
That night, they fell asleep in each other’s arms.
Pu Sangzhi lay in his embrace, sleeping peacefully through the night and even had a very sweet dream.
In the dream, she saw herself 10 years later.
It was a woman holding a child, with a gentle appearance and written in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows was happiness.
She asked the herself of 10 years later, "Is the child Huo Feng’s?"
The herself of 10 years later nodded with a smile, "Mhm, a boy."
She then asked the herself of 10 years later, "Is everything going smoothly at home? Huo Feng is still great, right?"
The herself of 10 years later continued to nod and smile, "He’s doing well, just as always."
She asked again, "You’re very happy, aren’t you?"
The herself of 10 years later smiled softly, her smile tasting of happiness, "Very happy."
After having this dream, when Pu Sangzhi woke up the next morning, she took Huo Feng’s face in her hands and planted a kiss on him, waking him with a kiss!
After that, Huo Feng and she didn’t even brush their teeth before they got intimate in bed for a long while...
During the week she arrived early, Pu Sangzhi was in training almost every day.
While she was busy, she also discovered that her beauty was being talked about among the new students in the Civil Engineering Department.
Mainly, it was the instructor Jiang Tao who said in the group that Pu Sangzhi was very beautiful and that she was the most beautiful girl he had seen in the Civil Engineering Department since his time at Tsinghua!
So, those students who hadn’t seen Pu Sangzhi were familiar with her name before they knew her face!
In just a few days, everyone in the Civil Engineering Department knew there was a goddess amongst them!
And Pu Sangzhi was exasperated about The Only One, a student who had never seen her face yet had directly proclaimed her the department’s beauty.
She found it all very speechless.
However, the week passed quickly...
By Sunday, the Tsinghua Campus started to really liven up.
The batches entering Tsinghua Campus every day were no longer tourists, but students!
From the official start of the new term, Tsinghua’s gates were closed to tourists and open only for teachers and students.
As one of the core students who had arrived early, Pu Sangzhi and more than a dozen male students set up a booth at the gate, arranging things for the new students of the Civil Engineering Department.
Attached high above their booth was the sign for the Civil Engineering Department.
Any student entering through the gates could see their service station and would naturally come to them seeking help.
Since it was a major with comparatively more male students, Pu Sangzhi, standing there to welcome the new arrivals, mostly greeted male students.
Moreover, those male students could generally recognize her at a glance!
"Hey, you’re that department beauty, right?"
"Can you show us to the male dormitory?"
"Can I add you on WeChat? What’s your name?"
Some of the more sociable male students had Pu Sangzhi running in circles, which made her feel quite helpless...
Fortunately, the instructor Jiang Tao was there too. He stepped in to help Pu Sangzhi, "Classmate, here’s a map for you. The boys’ dormitory is Zijing Building No. 3, go to the dormitory aunt first to get your bedding. We’ll meet up in the afternoon! Off you go!"
Then, with Pu Sangzhi’s very polite responses and refusals, one by one the boys were sent off ...
And no one was able to add Pu Sangzhi on WeChat.
Because of Pu Sangzhi’s strong sense of self-protection, by this morning in the Civil Engineering Department’s WeChat group, many male students were saying that it was hard to approach the department’s beauty and that she was a very innocent and serious girl.
Of course, there were also people asking in the group whether the Civil Engineering’s beauty had a boyfriend or not.
This question went unanswered.
Moreover, Pu Sangzhi herself was unaware of all this happening in the group.
Female students in the Civil Engineering Department were mostly latecomers...
Pu Sangzhi had been waiting for a long time before few female students arrived, and she finally felt like she had someone to talk to...
