Pampered by the School Bully-Chapter 179: I choose Sangzhi over my sons! (1)

Hearing the plump auntie speak like that, Huo Feng felt that this man was quite suspicious.

But as for where exactly he was suspicious, and whether he was targeting the Pu Sangzhi family, he couldn’t yet be sure.

Regardless, this was an important clue.

Huo Feng had to follow up on this clue.

He thought, if he found out this man was someone collecting debts, they could make preparations in advance. Or, if the man had nothing against the Sangzhi family, then he could let Pu Sangzhi let down his guard.

Huo Feng also couldn’t bear to see Pu Sangzhi and her mother living in hiding like this, not stepping through the main door, not crossing the threshold of the second, shunning the sunlight while dwelling in a cramped room, how suffocating...

With these thoughts, Huo Feng sweet-talked the plump auntie, "Auntie, I think that guy is a bit suspicious. Look, how about you give me a heads-up the next time he comes?"

The plump auntie frowned and patted Huo Feng’s shoulder, saying, "Hey, what’s there to be suspicious about? It’s just buying a pack of cigarettes. You’re so young, yet why do you think so much?"

Huo Feng needed the plump auntie to inform him, so at this moment, he pouted and acted cute, "Aunty, sister, just give me a heads-up~ Look at you, you’re so beautiful, it’s dangerous for you to live here. What if he’s some kind of dangerous person? If I investigate early and find out, wouldn’t I be protecting you? Right?"

Huo Feng was extremely charming.

He was good-looking and had an outgoing personality, very willing to put himself out there.

These middle-aged women were basically defenseless against his charm; seeing such a handsome young man say such sweet things, the plump auntie immediately burst into laughter, utterly helpless as she said, "You, look at what you’re saying? I’m so old, what kind of dangerous person would take an interest in me?"

Huo Feng continued to say nice things, all the while swaying and acting affectionately, "Sister, I’m also worried about the safety of the people living in this alley, I won’t mess around. Just give me a heads-up, I’ll top up your phone credit. I can do it right now..."

"Oh, no need, that would be too embarrassing..." the plump auntie laughed, trying to stop him.

Huo Feng insisted, "That won’t do, I’m asking for a favor from sister, how could I let you incur expenses! What’s your phone number, sister?"

Huo Feng kept calling her sister, obviously trying to please her, but the plump auntie still fell for it.

Women like to hear compliments, no matter what age group they belong to.

Especially compliments from a handsome guy, they have even greater impact on women.

So, unable to resist Huo Feng any longer, the plump auntie eventually agreed, gave him her phone number, and also took down Huo Feng’s number.

She promised Huo Feng that the next time that man came by, she would call him to let him know.

But that was all she would do, she wouldn’t get involved in anything else.

That was enough.

Huo Feng expressed his thanks.

Since the plump auntie refused to accept Huo Feng’s offer to top up her phone credit, he bought a bunch of stuff from her convenience store as a way to show his appreciation for her help.

Being so good at handling relationships, the plump auntie was also very happy with him.

Having arranged everything smoothly, Huo Feng then pleasantly made his way home.

...

In the evening, back at Mingzhu Building, Huo Feng resumed his daily routine of picking on Huo Mingshan.

Ever since he started studying seriously, whenever he was at home actually studying, he would purposely study in front of Huo Mingshan just to show off.

And tonight was no different; while Huo Mingshan was reading novels in the study, Huo Feng deliberately brought his English book to recite vocabulary words in Huo Mingshan’s study.

He recited each word loudly, the noise buzzing in Huo Mingshan’s ears, irritating him to the point of inner turmoil.

Originally, Huo Mingshan was reading an English novel, which he had to mentally translate as he read. "This damned kid," he thought, as Huo Feng recited a jumble of English words next to his ear, disrupting his thoughts, even causing him to lose his train of thought multiple times following Huo Feng’s distractions!

Finally, having had enough, Huo Mingshan grabbed his slipper and set about giving Huo Feng a thrashing.

Of course, the study turned into a scene of chaos, and Huo Mingshan didn’t manage to hit Huo Feng much.

The daily life of the Huo family father and son was still as noisy as ever, Shen Yu surreptitiously observed it, not interfering.

In her view, the relationship between the father and son was actually much better than before.

At least now, Huo Mingshan had a higher tolerance for Huo Feng.

He now waited until he couldn’t bear it any longer to lash out, unlike before when the mere sight of Huo Feng would set him off.

Was this progress?

Shen Yu mused to herself.

At ten o’clock in the evening, having finished memorizing English vocabulary, Huo Feng started his regular gaming.

Ever since he started hanging out with Pu Sangzhi, his gaming time had been increasingly compressed, becoming miserably limited.

For this reason, Huo Feng found his limited gaming time even more thrilling!

"Fatty, roll over here with your chubby self, and let’s have a duel against that couple across!"

"Alright! Triple kill! Don’t chicken out, push forward, push forward! Take down that tower!"

"Damn it, how dare they slaughter my Fatty. Fatty, just wait, Daddy’s gonna avenge you!"

"Who the hell stole my kill, fuck, Yangzi, you’re a kill thief!"

The room was filled with chaotic shouts of combat; Huo Feng was exceptionally enthusiastic.

And he kept winning all night!

As he was deeply involved in a critical ranking match, suddenly, his phone rang.

Huo Feng glanced at his phone screen, continued gaming, and roared, "Are you almost dead? Don’t worry! Daddy’s here to harvest!"

After shouting that, Huo Feng’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he instantly changed direction, controlling his character to run back home...

This abrupt turn caused his four brothers in front of the computer screen to scream in the voice chat, "Feng bro, harvest them! They’re all low on health!"

"Feng bro! Go for it, Feng bro!"

"Where you going, come back, what the hell you doing, Feng bro!"

Amidst the heart-rending screams of his brothers, Huo Feng dropped the game, took off his headset, picked up the phone, and answered with a beaming smile, "Hello~ beautiful~"

Because Pu Sangzhi had called him!

At this moment, the scene would be Huo Feng busy flirting with his girlfriend while his teammates struggled in the death screen...

Just before, Huo Feng’s mates had fought a team battle against the opponents, almost getting wiped out. But the opponents were also left with just a sliver of health. At that very moment, if Huo Feng had charged out, one slash per person, he could have wiped out all four opposing players in minutes.

However, Huo Feng freaked out! He let down all his brothers’ expectations and became a true noob teammate!

While Huo Feng was drowned in his brothers’ verbal attacks, he wouldn’t care less about the four brothers cursing through the headset; instead, he was busy joking and teasing Pu Sangzhi on the phone.

"Beautiful, what’s gotten into you today, calling me up, huh?"

Huo Feng turned on the speakerphone and placed the phone aside, starting to flirt with Pu Sangzhi on the other end of the line.

At this point, although he returned his hands to the keyboard, he had already missed the opportunity to claim those kills.

The opponents had long since gone back to heal at their fountain, leaving Huo Feng to clear the minion wave all alone.

It was a good thing he wasn’t wearing his headset at the time, or else, his brothers would’ve chewed him out.

On the other end of the phone, Pu Sangzhi asked him, "I won’t beat around the bush, just asking you: have you looked at the ’Five-Year College Entrance Exam, Three-Year Simulation’ set?"

With his keyboard clacking away, Huo Feng replied, "Nope, just finished memorizing English vocabulary tonight. No time to look at it..."

Pu Sangzhi sighed and said, "Then bring it over tomorrow. I’ll help you review the contents."

"Ah..."

Huo Feng frowned heavily and groaned, "I haven’t even finished my homework yet, just do that?"

Pu Sangzhi answered, "You could finish your homework tonight or tomorrow morning, and bring it to me to check. Tomorrow afternoon, let’s study that book."

Huo Feng’s brows furrowed tighter, "Ugh, I’ve already memorized English words for over an hour today; you want me to do homework, so tiresome~"

Pu Sangzhi replied, "Aren’t you playing a game right now?"

Huo Feng pouted, "Pu Sangzhi, are you really trying to crush me with homework? Not giving me any time to relax?"

Pu Sangzhi laughed, "Then play games tonight and get up tomorrow morning to do homework."

Huo Feng sighed deeply, "You even want to deprive me of sleeping in~ Utterly inhumane! Let me tell you, unless you kiss me on my lips right now, I have no motivation to do all that~"

Pu Sangzhi on the other end couldn’t help but laugh at his antics, "Hey, you figure it out. I’m just giving you a heads-up. Also, bring ’Five-Year College Entrance Exam, Three-Year Simulation’ tomorrow."

Huo Feng muttered in confusion, "Oh—"

After that response, a dial tone was heard.

Pu Sangzhi had hung up!

Huo Feng finally received an active call from her, only to end up with such an outcome!

Truly heartbreaking!

Huo Feng huffed and put his headset back on, planning to seek some comfort from his buddies, "My sons, Daddy’s back! Give Daddy a warm welcome!"

However, the brothers through the headset unanimously replied, "Feng bro, this game’s over, please go do your homework!"

Huo Feng: "..."
