Pampered by the School Bully-Chapter 123 - 118. Sangzhi’s Life

Ye Xi was a very important figure in the first half of Pu Sangzhi’s life.

He was three years older than her, and those three years had been difficult for Pu Sangzhi...

From his youth, he was an excellent student, known throughout the village for his good character and helpful nature.

Thus, since childhood, everyone around Pu Sangzhi held him in high regard, including herself, who greatly admired Brother Ye Xi.

It’s common for girls to experience early awakenings of affection, so a small seed was planted in Pu Sangzhi’s heart quite some time ago.

As she began to change her life to align with Ye Xi, Pu Sangzhi had set for herself goals that were equal to his without even realizing it...

So, when she was quite young, she had secretly written in her diary: I want to be an excellent girl so that I can be worthy of Brother Ye Xi.

But these are things from a long time ago, and the Pu Sangzhi of today no longer harbors such thoughts, nor dares to think about them.

Now, she is a soul dominated by life.

Under the heavy pressure of life, all she could preserve was her dream of Tsinghua, and she only wanted to keep that dream...

Other things, including this one-sided affection that only she knew about, had long been secretly erased and buried deep in her heart.

But now, suddenly mentioning him, there was still a flicker of emotion and gratitude in Pu Sangzhi’s heart.

Grateful that he had steered her almost stray self back on the right track, grateful he gave her a reason to be an excellent student.

Pu Sangzhi recalled the bits and pieces of her childhood, a faint smile appearing on her face.

Her voice was soft and gentle, like trickling water, "Brother Ye Xi was someone I’ve admired since I was young. His father was a burly businessman, while my father was a cultured man from a scholarly family. We were neighbors, and one wouldn’t think they had anything in common, but surprisingly, his father got along very well with my father. Later, his father took my father to Shanghai to start a business, and our families moved there together, and I changed schools along with him. He also has a sister, who was a good friend of mine from childhood. We haven’t been in touch these last few years, but I believe if we were to meet again, our relationship would still be good."

While saying this, Pu Sangzhi remembered the last time she logged into QQ, her good friend Ye Qingcao had sent her 99 messages, constantly trying to contact her...

But she did not respond, she considered herself to be unreachable, no longer making contact with the Ye Family.

Perhaps that was because Pu Sangzhi felt inferior.

"In the first grade of elementary school, I played crazily with those students. Even though I once lost my backpack, I still couldn’t control my behavior and skipped classes daily to play in the fields or chase chickens in others’ backyards. Naturally, my academic performance plummeted, and I even stopped doing homework altogether, opting instead to copy others’ work at school."

When Pu Sangzhi was recounting this, Huo Feng couldn’t help but interrupt, "Damn, you were living my entire middle school life in first grade. Awesome!"

Lin Qianqian also expressed her astonishment, "Sister Sangzhi, I never imagined you had such a rebellious phase; I can hardly believe it..."

Pu Sangzhi simply smiled faintly and continued, "At that time, Brother Ye Xi’s father invited my father to go to Shanghai for business. My father was undecided between his government job and business, but eventually, he resigned and went to Shanghai with Brother Ye Xi’s father. After that, I lost touch with friends here. Once in Shanghai, Brother Ye Xi gave me a lot of ideological education, urging me to study hard and be an excellent girl. He often lectured me about this, and by the end of that summer vacation, I had come to understand. Afterwards, I began to study diligently and strive to be excellent. I wanted to be like him because I felt that excellent people have a certain attractive charm."

Huo Feng definitely agreed, "Yeah, right, you are quite charming too."

However, after thinking it through, suddenly, he felt something was off in her words!

Huo Feng thought, was she striving because of a boy? And she thinks excellent boys are charming? Does this mean... she has someone in her heart?

Shit! Fuck! Fuck!

Huo Feng’s heart exploded; he couldn’t hold back and directly asked her, "Sangzhi, you don’t have a crush on that dog Ye Xi, do you?"

"Hey! Why are you insulting people?"

Pu Sangzhi scolded Huo Feng, "It’s one thing to tease me, but Brother Ye Xi is an excellent person; I won’t allow you to speak ill of him!"

Huo Feng felt like he was hit by a million tons!

His heart was bleeding...

So she really had someone in her heart...

No wonder he had tried so hard for so long but couldn’t get through!

"Ah... You actually like that dog Ye Xi, it’s too painful..."

Huo Feng dropped the skewer in his hand, clutched his chest, and wailed, "I can’t eat anymore; I’m going to find out about that dog Ye Xi tomorrow and go beat him up."

Pu Sangzhi was speechless, "Why would you hit him?"

Huo Feng felt even more pain in his chest, his lamentations continued, "Sangzhi, you’ve changed. You don’t care at all why I can’t eat. You’re going to drive me to death, to be full of anger, to vomit blood..."

Pu Sangzhi was left speechless.

Lin Qianqian on the side was eating delightfully, grabbing enoki mushrooms and veggies, while quietly watching Huo Feng make a scene.

The atmosphere was still quite good, with Pu Sangzhi and Lin Qianqian in a good mood, except for Huo Feng... He felt as if his heart was being shattered into pieces!

"Ugh, it’s unbearable, unbearable, I’m going to have a cardiac arrest..."

As Huo Feng spoke, he leaned back and gradually slumped to the ground, his emotions sinking to rock bottom.

Pu Sangzhi looked at him and found his behavior both amusing and a bit exasperating.

"I didn’t say I liked him, why are you making such a big deal out of it?" Pu Sangzhi said.

This statement, like a sudden sweet rain, drenched Huo Feng, exciting him for a moment.

"Really? You don’t like him? Are you sure you don’t like him? Are you sure he’s not in your heart? Are you sure I, Huo Feng, am the only one in your heart?"

Pu Sangzhi couldn’t help but laugh, "You’re overthinking it!"

"Ah... I’ve been hit hard, I’m dying, I’m really upset now, and my throat hurts a lot, I might start coughing up blood and die soon."

Huo Feng lay on the ground, mumbling, "Is there anyone who will save me?"

Lin Qianqian quickly asked him, "Brother Feng, how can we save you?"

Huo Feng shot her a look, "Get lost."

Lin Qianqian sulkily retracted her head, pretending she never asked that question.

"Ah... the over 100 bucks on BBQ might have just fed a dog. My girlfriend completely ignores whether I live or die, letting me give up on myself and lie here as a corpse, not even thinking of comforting me a bit."

Huo Feng continued to grumble endlessly, sounding just like an old man.

When Pu Sangzhi heard herself being equated to a dog again, she felt helpless and speechless.

However, the sad part was that she enjoyed the barbecue very much and had eaten their food; now her hands were tied!

"Okay, Huo Feng. Get up now, the floor is cold," Pu Sangzhi said.

"No, I won’t get up... unless you say you love me, I won’t get up," Huo Feng lay there causing a scene.

Pu Sangzhi had no choice but to give him hope, "I’ll reiterate for you again, I don’t have someone I like, I won’t like anyone else now. So, as long as you study hard and get into Tsinghua, maybe I’ll give you a chance?"

Hearing this, Huo Feng finally raised his head a bit, "Really don’t like that dog Ye Xi?"

Pu Sangzhi nodded, "Not now."

Huo Feng squinted, "What about before?"

Pu Sangzhi finally lost her patience, responding, "Huo Feng, do you really want to keep acting dead?"

From her words, Huo Feng fully sensed... she had liked that dog Ye Xi before!

Ah...

He was not the first love of his goddess, which made Huo Feng feel so hurt and uncomfortable!

"Sangzhi, just leave me alone... let me give up on myself for a while," Huo Feng lay on the ground, numbing himself.

Seeing Huo Feng’s half-dead appearance really turned Pu Sangzhi’s stomach.

She couldn’t stand it anymore, so she stood up, walked over to the desk, and pulled open a drawer...

Huo Feng and Lin Qianqian’s attention was fixed on her.

Both of them thought that Pu Sangzhi would take something out to prove she didn’t like Ye Xi.

Unexpectedly, Pu Sangzhi took out the love letter Huo Feng had written.

She tossed the love letter onto Huo Feng, complaining, "You’re really annoying; you really make me take out such things."

Just right, the love letter landed on Huo Feng’s chest.

Huo Feng picked it up and glanced at it, instantly filled with fighting spirit, he sprang up and sat!

"Sangzhi! You’ve kept my love letter!" Huo Feng was instantly overjoyed, light shimmering from his eyes, which were remarkably bright.

"I couldn’t bring myself to throw it away, okay!"

Pu Sangzhi sat down in frustration, "Take it back, since you also want to die."

"No, no, no~"

Huo Feng caressed the love letter a couple of times and presented it with both hands, "I beg your majesty to take it back!"

Pu Sangzhi refused, "Don’t want it."

Huo Feng bowed his head deeply, "I want it. And I’ll write more in the future."

At this moment, Huo Feng’s emotions soared like a roller coaster, shooting up into the sky!

He was so happy!
