Pampered by the School Bully-Chapter 120 - 115, very resourceful

Huo Feng was indeed a capable hand in the kitchen.

He could stir-fry simple home-cooked dishes.

Staying by Chen Huifen’s side, he washed and prepared vegetables, helped handle the wok, assisted with seasoning, and tasted for flavor... In short, he was very helpful.

Moreover, he was a smooth talker. Even while frying a dish, he could deliver a speech, suggesting various cooking methods, and relate it to many aspects...

In the time it took to cook a few dishes, the handsome and sweet-talking Huo Feng had completely captured Chen Huifen’s heart.

Chen Huifen kept being amused by him and found the boy to be particularly interesting.

She even wondered, what kind of elder could have raised such a boy?

Having such a child was truly a blessing.

Pu Sangzhi and Lin Qianqian had been chatting about girl stuff in the living room for a while and hadn’t seen Huo Feng return.

Pu Sangzhi initially didn’t mind, but then she suddenly remembered Huo Feng calling her mother "mother-in-law" with particular emphasis on that joke...

At that moment, she was so scared that she hurried to the kitchen.

However, when Pu Sangzhi arrived in the kitchen, she saw a very harmonious scene.

Huo Feng was helping her mother with the cooking, and the two of them were getting along well, discussing how to make the dishes tastier.

Pu Sangzhi stood outside the kitchen, secretly watching the two of them and also eavesdropped on their conversation for a while.

When she didn’t hear Huo Feng say anything nonsensical, she decided not to stop him from hitting on her mom.

After all, this was the only chance Huo Feng had to enter her house, she doubted he could stir up any trouble, so Pu Sangzhi wasn’t worried!

...

For dinner, Chen Huifen ate at the same table with the three students.

All three of them were students and were growing, each with a considerable appetite.

Especially Huo Feng, who ate three bowls of rice by himself, emptying the last grain of rice from the rice cooker.

Chen Huifen felt it had been a long time since her home was this lively, and the atmosphere of everyone eating together made her happy.

Chen Huifen was in a good mood that evening. fгeewebnovёl.com

After dinner, Huo Feng volunteered to do the dishes and actively cleaned up the tableware, like a busy bee.

Of course, Pu Sangzhi saw through his intentions at a glance, so she firmly refused his offer and insisted on sending him home.

At this time, it was Chen Huifen’s turn to step in, the savior Huo Feng had worked hard to butter up.

Knowing he couldn’t outtalk Pu Sangzhi, Huo Feng directly called for Chen Huifen, "Auntie, look at Sangzhi, she won’t even let me wash the dishes out of kindness. She’s so eager to send me away, is it really such a rush?"

When Huo Feng suddenly addressed Chen Huifen, it dawned on Pu Sangzhi why he had been so attentive in helping her mother cook—it was all for this moment!

Great... just great!

That damn Huo Feng, so cunning!

"Sangzhi, you shouldn’t be rude to your classmate."

At that moment, Chen Huifen, who had finished eating and was preparing to return to her room to work, was held back by Huo Feng’s call. She turned around and chided Sangzhi.

After being scolded by Chen Huifen, Pu Sangzhi immediately glared at Huo Feng, threateningly signaling with her eyes for him to leave quickly.

But Huo Feng, the shameless guy, once again stopped Chen Huifen and directly asked, "Auntie, could you let me stay and sleep on the sofa tonight?"

Chen Huifen was taken aback by this.

Pu Sangzhi was startled!

Lin Qianqian was... dumbfounded.

It took a while for the three women to process what Huo Feng had said.

After processing it, Pu Sangzhi was the first to respond, "No way!"

"Auntie, my mom isn’t home tonight. I don’t get along with my dad, and if I go home with bruises all over, he’s definitely going to beat me up. My mom will be home tomorrow; she can protect me then. So, what do you think... could you take me in for the night?"

Huo Feng ignored Pu Sangzhi’s reply and sought Chen Huifen’s understanding.

This made Pu Sangzhi anxiously push him, "Huo Feng, I said no!"

"Tsk..."

Huo Feng lowered his head, giving her a sideways glance, "I was supposed to go home today, who called me over with one phone call? Now I’m all banged up, and if I go home, my dad will beat me up. Aren’t you going to take me in? Where’s your conscience?"

Pu Sangzhi was speechless at Huo Feng’s reasoning, "But... but it’s not appropriate for you to stay here."

Huo Feng retorted, "Fine, if you won’t take me in, I’ll just spend the night at an internet café. It’s the same if I go home; my dad will beat me either way. But at least I’ll save my life if I don’t go home."

Pu Sangzhi bit her lip, feeling a bit embarrassed, "Do you really have to go to an internet café..."

Staying at an internet café is not good."

At that moment, Chen Huifen finally couldn’t help but interject, "Xiaofeng, I don’t really know about your relationship with your parents. But, whether you stay here or go to an internet café, you should let your dad know. Even if you’re afraid to go home, if you’re going to stay out, at least make a phone call to inform him."

As an elder, Chen Huifen’s perspective on the matter was more aligned with that of a parent.

She wasn’t against Huo Feng staying over, she just hoped that Huo Feng would, no matter what, inform his family so as not to worry the elders at home.

Huo Feng nodded to Chen Huifen and said, "Auntie, I will call my dad. But my mom isn’t home tonight, and I really can’t go home with injuries all over me. He will definitely think I got into a fight and will definitely beat me up."

This point Huo Feng made was an absolute truth.

He had a premonition that, because of the incident at the sports meet, his old man would skin him alive when he returned home this week.

Now he had gotten into a fight today and ended up with injuries all over.

This was just adding new troubles to the old ones, and his old man had one more reason to beat him. Huo Feng feared for his life...

However, he still told a little white lie. Because tonight, his mom should have been at home!

To stay here, Huo Feng lied about her not being home!

"Then you might as well stay. We have spare rooms anyway, I’ll find you some bedding to lay out later," Chen Huifen, soft-hearted and gentle, quickly agreed.

With her agreement, there was nothing Pu Sangzhi could object to.

So, Pu Sangzhi could only accept her fate, allowing Huo Feng to do as he pleased in her home.

Huo Feng was now delighted, his eyebrows dancing and his smile radiant, "Ah, thank you Auntie for taking me in. And thank you Sangzhi for being soft-hearted."

After saying this, Huo Feng nudged Pu Sangzhi with his elbow.

Pu Sangzhi immediately rubbed her elbow, turned her head to the side, and said, "I’m not soft-hearted, you’re thinking too much."

Huo Feng gave a wicked smile, "Actions belie words."

Pu Sangzhi: "Twisting the facts."

Their bantering made the atmosphere incredibly friendly.

Chen Huifen couldn’t help but chuckle gently, her smile warm and tender.

...

That evening, Huo Feng and Pu Sangzhi washed dishes together, arranged the dishes, and tidied up the kitchen.

After busily doing household chores for over an hour, Huo Feng thought that a very relaxing evening was finally upon him.

But just as they finished the chores, Pu Sangzhi, tireless, took out her schoolbag and called them both into the room... to start a study session!

Damn...

At that moment, both Huo Feng and Lin Qianqian felt utterly defeated inside.

But, since it was his girlfriend’s will, Huo Feng had to agree, even if it meant swallowing tears.

So when Lin Qianqian looked particularly dispirited, Huo Feng took the opportunity to vent!

"Ugly Qianqian, focus on your review, alright? Don’t waste Sangzhi’s kind efforts!"

"Tonight, memorize this whole list of vocabulary. Also memorize a couple of classical Chinese texts, and do two Chapters of the test papers, can you handle that?"

"If you don’t memorize them well, you’re not sleeping!"

"I’ll keep an eye on you tonight. I have to help Sangzhi oversee your revision."

Taking advantage of his seniority, Huo Feng began bossing Lin Qianqian around with a great deal of arrogance.

Lin Qianqian, bullied and helpless, could only nod in acceptance and diligently study.

Yet, Huo Feng’s natural nemesis was sitting right beside him.

While Huo Feng was commanding Lin Qianqian, Pu Sangzhi plonked a thick stack of books in front of him, "Huo Feng, start doing your homework."

Huo Feng, having been smug just moments before, had no choice but to concede, "Ah, okay, I’ll write. Homework brings me joy, studying fills me with substance, Tsinghua makes me outstanding!"

Pu Sangzhi glanced at him and said, "Enough with your nonsense, quickly take out your homework. We’ll do it together, and you’ll show it to me after."

Huo Feng really regretted bringing his schoolbag.

Schoolbag, schoolbag, truly a burden indeed...

Huo Feng slowly took out his homework, placed it on the desk, and then began to study in earnest.

No, earnestness didn’t exist for him!

Huo Feng didn’t do many questions before his thoughts started drifting significantly.

He chewed on the end of his pen, widened his eyes, and surveyed Pu Sangzhi’s room.

Pu Sangzhi’s room lacked any girlishness, without white, pink, or yellow, only displaying a distinct Chinese style with wooden walls and very old wooden cupboards, and a bed with dark red lacquer.

The whole room was gloomy and old, completely at odds with Pu Sangzhi’s own temperament and style.

Huo Feng really wanted to renovate this room. He imagined turning the room’s wallpaper pink, laying down off-white floor tiles, spreading a floral tablecloth, and replacing it with a milky white European-style vanity, to fill the entire room with a girly atmosphere.

Such a room would be suitable for Pu Sangzhi, this little fairy.

Thinking over this, Huo Feng straightforwardly asked, "Sangzhi, can I redecorate your room?"

Without looking up, Pu Sangzhi replied, "You might want to redecorate your brain first."

Huo Feng: "..."
