Chapter 707: Chapter 707
The difference in educational philosophies had led to Huo Feng’s suffering today, and he had to watch as other kids played games...
At this moment, Huo Feng told himself that his parents’ educational philosophy was completely wrong!
In the future, once he had his own children, he would definitely make his son clean the entire dormitory spotlessly while Pu Sangzhi sat aside.
This vengeance could only be carried out on his descendants!
Latterly, Huo Feng diligently made the bed, cleaned the mat, and neatly arranged everything from his suitcase into his cupboard.
He wiped the cupboard, the computer desk, and even swept the floor and took care of the dormitory’s trash.
Originally, according to Shen Yu’s instructions, she had wanted Huo Feng to take the dormitory’s trash bin down stairs.
But the twins’ mother, feeling sorry for the pitiful child Huo Feng, secretly took it out for him.
Huo Feng was grateful to her!
Afterward, the twins and their parents left the dormitory. Content orıginally comes from novel•fire.net
Having finished cleaning, Huo Feng collapsed into a chair, rested his chin in one hand, and stared speechlessly at Shen Yu and Huo Mingshan, who was playing on his phone.
Earlier, when Shen Yu and the twins’ mother had argued, Huo Mingshan hadn’t said a word and just kept his head down playing with his phone.
The guy was utterly pathetic! A true henpecked husband!
All in all, Huo Feng was very depressed.
Seeing Huo Feng’s morose expression, Shen Yu didn’t need to think twice to know what the youngster was stewing over.
But Shen Yu felt no guilt, she asked Huo Feng, "Put your temper aside for now, and let me ask you, do you think there’s something wrong with my method of education? Is there a problem with having you tidy up your own life?"
Huo Feng’s mouth twitched, "You’re making me lose face."
"So, do you think I did something wrong?"
Shen Yu challenged him, "Okay, then tell me, where did I go wrong? If you can point out even one mistake I made, I’ll apologize to you."
Huo Feng looked at her confidently and was too lazy to argue with her.
"Forget it, forget it, a good man doesn’t argue with women, let’s go eat," Huo Feng waved it off.
Shen Yu stubbornly said, "I must make you recognize what was wrong with that pair of parents’ method of educating their child today. Look for yourself, did that son show any respect to his parents?"
Huo Feng furrowed his brows and simply stopped talking to Shen Yu, and directly called Huo Mingshan, "Dad, manage your wife a bit, women should be more broad-minded, let’s go eat."
Huo Mingshan coughed, and instead lectured Huo Feng, "When your mom speaks, you listen."
Shen Yu couldn’t be bothered to say too much to Huo Feng either, but she did say one last thing: "Huo Feng, remember this. Tsinghua is a good school, and the students there are probably all treasures at home, the kind raised just for studying. But you’re not! Your character and upbringing are always more important to me than your grades and achievements! In the future, regardless of whether you make money or how much, you must not forget my education!"
Huo Feng perfunctorily nodded, "Let’s go eat. Let’s find Sangzhi together."
Huo Mingshan also nudged Shen Yu, "Let’s not make Sangzhi wait for us, we’ll go wait for her."
To Huo Feng, Huo Mingshan didn’t really qualify as a good father...
Because he always gave Huo Feng the feeling of a ’good father-in-law’!
Soon after, they agreed to meet Pu Sangzhi at the nearest cafeteria nearby.
The Tsinghua campus is large, so naturally, there are many cafeterias.
From the map, there seem to be at least a dozen.
But which one has the best food still remains to be seen.
Today was the beginning of the school term, so the campus was quite lively.
Today, many more people came to eat at the cafeteria compared to last week.
Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng’s family lined up at the food service window.
This afternoon, both Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng’s departments had their respective meetings, so after lunch, Huo Mingshan and Shen Yu had to go back as well.
While they waited in line, Shen Yu told Pu Sangzhi everything that had happened in Huo Feng’s dormitory this morning.
Shen Yu believed that Pu Sangzhi would surely understand her!
After all, if she had raised Huo Feng to be this way, then Pu Sangzhi was sure to benefit in the future!
Huo Feng was a diligent man, skilled both in the hall and the kitchen, and would definitely live with Pu Sangzhi in the future.
Pu Sangzhi also thought highly of Huo Feng’s ability to do household chores, a trait many young men lack today!
So, after hearing everything, she immediately praised Shen Yu, "Auntie, I think what you said is absolutely correct!"
Shen Yu was genuinely pleased to have Pu Sangzhi’s strong support, "Xiaofeng even got mad at me! Tell me, what does he have to be mad about? That’s clearly someone else’s faulty education! How can that kind of indulgence help a boy become a man of stature?"
"Who’s angry with you?"
Behind her, Huo Feng couldn’t bear listening anymore, "Didn’t I do everything you told me to do, without missing a single thing?"
"But you were unwilling to do it!" Shen Yu said.
For a while, the mother and son began to argue.
"Auntie, don’t be angry. I will have a good talk with Huo Feng. He’s definitely not the spoiled type. He understands you."
Luckily, Pu Sangzhi was there, acting as an effective mediator.
Shen Yu was somewhat satisfied then, "Sangzhi, you must keep a close eye on Xiaofeng here. Make sure he doesn’t get spoiled by others!"
Pu Sangzhi chuckled lightly, "Okay, I understand."
Shen Yu sighed worriedly, "I heard that some parents resign from their jobs and rent houses here to accompany their children at Tsinghua, managing all their daily life needs just so the children can solely focus on their studies! That’s not right. What’s the use if their academic performance improves but their mental health suffers? What do you think, Sangzhi?"
"Auntie, you’re right. Having a sound mind is always more important than grades. Auntie, what would you like to eat?"
Just then, they reached the front of the long queue in the cafeteria.
This endless topic was finally put to rest.
As Shen Yu went to order food, Pu Sangzhi turned back to Huo Feng and caught his eye. Huo Feng shrugged helplessly, displaying an ’I’m speechless’ expression.
Pu Sangzhi merely pursed her lips and chuckled lightly, patting his shoulder in a small gesture that showed she understood him.
This certainly brightened Huo Feng’s mood a lot!
Huo Feng leaned up to Pu Sangzhi’s ear and whispered teasingly, "This morning, during the welcoming of the freshmen, you weren’t hit on, were you?"
Pu Sangzhi frowned and elbowed him gently.
She directly didn’t respond to that question!
Her main task was to welcome the freshmen, and it was hardly possible for her not to be approached.
Today, she even found out that many male students from their department had directly added her as a WeChat friend through the Civil Engineering group...
Pu Sangzhi didn’t pay attention to any of them!
After lunch, Shen Yu and Huo Mingshan bid their final farewells to them.
Shen Yu and Huo Mingshan had booked an evening flight back to Wenzhou, and their plan was to head back to the hotel to pick up their suitcases, then go to the airport.
Thus, after saying goodbye to their parents, the two formally began their life at Tsinghua.
Since their individual departments had meetings in the afternoon, Huo Feng and Pu Sangzhi each went back to their respective dormitories at noon.
It was then that they discovered their dormitory buildings were very close to each other!
Pu Sangzhi lived in Zijing Dormitory Building Number Five, and Huo Feng lived in Zijing Dormitory Building Number One, not far apart—practically walking distance!
It is said that this side of the Zijing Dormitory mainly houses undergraduates.
Graduate and doctoral students live elsewhere, something they didn’t know for the time being.
Pu Sangzhi had been busy all morning, and after eating lunch, she finally returned to her dormitory.
The moment she opened the door, the three girls in the dormitory all looked her way!
Each one had a different expression upon seeing her!
She didn’t expect that in her dormitory, there would be that girl from Xinjiang with the long name and that girl with long, cold, wavy hair. Of course, there was also a very plain girl with large glasses...
This morning, the two girls who had left a strong impression on her were actually in her dormitory!
Was it a special fate?
The girl from Xinjiang named Minal was happily lying on the upper bunk, waving at Pu Sangzhi, "I can’t believe I’m in the same dorm as you, I’m so happy~"
Pu Sangzhi smiled and walked over, touching Minal’s hand, "Nice to meet you."
"Is that your bed? Our beds are so close!"
Minal pointed at the bed at the foot of her bed, grabbed her pillow, and shifted towards it. She added, "I’m going to sleep on this side from now on! I want to be closer to you!"
Pu Sangzhi nodded, "Sure."
The girl with large glasses in the bed opposite Pu Sangzhi also took the initiative to greet her, "I know you. You’re the beauty of the Civil Engineering! You’re really pretty, the guys in the group were discussing you all day. The group is filled with your pictures!"
"That’s... not important, right?"
Pu Sangzhi felt a bit embarrassed, "My name is Pu Sangzhi, you can call me Sangzhi."
"I’m Wei Zixuan, you can call me Zixuan," the glasses girl introduced herself sweetly.
In the dormitory, only the cool girl with big wavy hair didn’t speak.
But, she sat on her bed, playing with her phone, and... sneakily glanced at Pu Sangzhi.
