Chapter 1: Love On The Sick Bed, Goddess Sending Warmth?

"Mr. Luo, your tumor has already spread. We discussed at length and are in consensus that only a craniotomy can save your life!"

The doctor in the white coat had a cold expression on his face, his voice was as flat as a low-quality robot. It was as if the item in his hand was a lousy menu instead of an X-ray with bad news.

Luo Feng, who was sitting opposite the doctor, laughed bitterly. "What is the success rate of a craniotomy?"

The doctor adjusted his glasses and extended four fingers.

"40%?" Luo Feng asked.

Nearly 50% success rate? Luo Feng was a little happy. This seemingly bad news was the best news he had heard recently.

"Four percent." The doctor replied coldly.

Luo Feng felt like he had fallen into an ice cave the moment he heard that.

What was the difference between four percent and a direct declaration of death! Was there a need for a meeting to discuss this?

The doctor didn't seem to notice Luo Feng's expression of despair. "You still have slightly less than half a month if we treat it conservatively."

Luo Feng could hear the urging in his words. He wouldn't be of any help to the hospital's financial gains as someone who was sent here by a caring person.

Moreover, to put it bluntly, treating him would be a waste of medical resources given his condition.

"I'll do the surgery. If it doesn't work out, you guys can take the organs that are still useful." Luo Feng said as he propped himself up with the table and left the treatment room.

The tumor in his brain had almost drained all of his strength. His body was like a broken lantern made of paper. The slender bamboo strips would deform and break with just a tiny external force.

Luo Feng held onto the anti-fall handrail and slowly walked back to his ward.

He lay back on the bed and spat out the air in his lungs in pain.

He knew that he should contact his family to see them one last time and eat whatever he wanted according to the protocol, even though the doctor did not remind him just now.

Unfortunately, he had no family.

His parents had passed away early. Two relatives who wanted to inherit all his money since he had no offspring did come. However, they hid far away as if they were avoiding a plague when they heard that he was sick with nothing left.

Xing Miaomiao was the first name listed in his communication record.

She was Luo Feng's ex-girlfriend. The two of them started dating in high school and got into the same university together. They have never separated even after their internship, so they were an enviable couple.

Xing Miaomiao was promoted from his girlfriend to his fiancée when they got engaged one year ago.

However, the irony was that Xing Miaomiao had never appeared again ever since Luo Feng discovered the brain tumor. She even canceled the wedding ceremony that was already on the agenda and drew a clear line with Luo Feng.

Luo Feng's classmates were the ones who told him the news. However, it was very difficult for him to question Xing Miaomiao face to face with his weak body. He had to let it go even though he was unwilling.

Luo Feng thought about it and realized that there was no one he wanted to see.

He stared blankly at a certain stain on the ceiling. The silent room was terrifyingly quiet. The sound of the horn outside the window was like countless sharp arrows, hitting Luo Feng's ear, the bull's eye, revolving repeatedly in his brain after piercing through it.

"Urgh!" Luo Feng covered his mouth and felt his stomach churning. There was nothing in his stomach for him to throw up, only the sour stench rushing into his throat, burning his tongue.

Luo Feng hurriedly tried to grab the cup on the bedside table. However, he was unable to reach it.

Suddenly, Luo Feng felt the cup hit the back of his hand. He grabbed it and gulped the water in it down. He started coughing again before he could even relax.

"Cough cough cough!" Luo Feng curled up into a ball in pain.

Right at this moment, a hand covered Luo Feng's back, gently helping him breathe.

Luo Feng raised his head in surprise and saw a beautiful woman in an apricot-colored suit standing in front of him. The woman was elegant and magnanimous. She looked like she just walked out of a high-end show when looking at her up close.

"Thank you." Luo Feng used his hand to cover his sorry state.

The beautiful woman was like the sun in the sky. Anyone would avoid her light and feel ashamed of their inferiority.

Luo Feng lowered his head to avoid the beauty's gaze. He had a feeling that this person would leave very soon. Perhaps she was here visiting a family member and came over to help him out because he was pitiful.

To his surprise, the beauty did not leave. She, instead, sat down by his bed.

The folds of the suit skirt followed her curves, her long legs elegantly gathered together, and her small leather bag covered the edge of the skirt. Luo Feng felt like the beauty was observing him!

"Wow! That person seems to be the youngest female CEO of Goldman Sachs Investment Corporation. I've seen her on television!"

"She's so beautiful. She looks even better in person than on TV!"

"God is so unfair. How can someone be so good-looking and capable at the same time!"

At some point, a few nurses had gathered at the door of the ward. Their whispers answered some of Luo Feng's doubts.

Wasn't Goldman Sachs the most popular investment company in the news? It had only been listed for four years and had a market value of more than 10 billion yuan. Its scope spanned finance, real estate, tourism, film and television, and many other industries.

If Tencent was the paraquat in the industry, then Goldman Sachs would be the industry's blood transfusion pack. It would do whatever it wanted and prosper.

Why would the CEO of such a great company come to such a place?

Luo Feng looked at the beauty's face and found it familiar.

The beauty pursed her red lips and said. "Luo Feng, how are you feeling? I heard from the doctor that you've decided to undergo surgery?"

Luo Feng nodded. "Yes, but who are you?"

The beauty was stunned for a moment. "I'm Ai Tingya. Don't you remember?"

Ai Tingya?

This name sounds familiar, but Luo Feng's limited brain capacity did not allow him to search through his past memories.

"High school, boiled eggs. Do you remember now?" Ai Tingya smiled and reminded him.

It was Luo Feng's turn to be surprised.

When he was in high school, his mother would cook him a boiled egg every day to complete his nutritional intake. He did not like to eat it, so he gave it to a yellow-faced and muscular girl in his class.

He did not have a deep impression of this girl. He only remembered that her hair was dry like straw. She was always in her school uniform even though the other girls in his class dressed up. She was dry and thin, like a baguette in a pocket.

Her inconspicuous appearance led no one but her teacher to remember her for her excellent results.

Luo Feng then looked at the voluptuous beauty in front of him and thought to himself. "Is this because of the nutritions in a boiled egg, or is it because of a second puberty? She has turned into such a beauty!"

"What are you doing here?" Luo Feng asked anxiously.

What goes around comes around. He was the one who was like the baguette in a hospital gown. There was nothing sadder than seeing an old classmate with a successful career again while he was lingering on his sick bed.

Luo Feng shrank back into himself to avoid giving Ai Tingya his illness thinking about this.

Ai Tingya sensed his resistance and stopped leaning closer to him. She pretended to be calm and replied. "Of course I'm here to see you. The period when we were deskmates might have been ordinary to you but it is unforgettable to me!"

Chapter 2: Cinematic Record Before Death, Am I Dreaming?

Unforgettable? Is she going to confess to me?

Ai Tingya's choice of words was very ambiguous so Luo Feng couldn't help but let his imagination run wild. However, the tumor squeezed out all the unnecessary thoughts from his mind in no time.

If the world was a game, then the Heavens would be a completely wicked player who joked around with Luo Feng.

So what if his deskmate confessed to him in his current physical condition? He could only wish her well indifferently and continue waiting to be pushed into the operating theater.

Ai Ting Ya couldn't hear Luo Feng's thoughts as she continued sincerely. "I was very sad to hear that you were sick. I've always wanted to see you, but I didn't know if you wanted to see me"

Luo Feng's pale lips curled into a relaxed smile: "Why do you think I don't want to? With a classmate that is the CEO of Goldman Sachs, I will be able to brag for a long time. Do any other classmates know your identity?"

Ai Ting Ya immediately smiled when she heard Luo Feng taking the initiative to bring up a relaxing topic. "You're the only one"

Luo Feng said proudly, "So that's how it is. I'll be able to brag the next time I see them."

He was still in contact with a few people in high school. After graduating from university, he started a small company with his two best friends which did quite well with their family's connections.

Luo Feng would have become the envy of others if his parents hadn't died and he hadn't been plagued by illness.

He did not want to drag his best friends down with him after he was diagnosed with a tumor in his brain. He therefore took some money and left, waiting for his life to end on his deathbed.

However, there would always be a day when his wealth would be emptied. Luo Feng didn't have any income and had to pay an expensive treatment fee. He was running out of money in no time.

Coincidentally, he met a kind-hearted person in society who helped him pay for his medical expenses every month. Otherwise, he might have died long ago. He was considered lucky to be able to hear the doctor's treatment plan this morning.

Luo Feng faintly felt that things were a little too coincidental after seeing Ai Tingya.

He pretended not to know anything. "Then I'm honored. I'll have to tell Yan Jun about it when he comes. Do you remember Yan Jun? He was the life committee member of our class. He's put on weight and has to turn his body sideways when he enters through the door."

Ai Tingya's lips twitched. She wanted to laugh, but she didn't. She paused for a moment and interrupted Luo Feng's laughter in a low voice. "Is that so? Yan Jun has always been very fat. Speaking of which… I heard that you're engaged to Xing Miaomiao. Why isn't she here?"

Ai Tingya would definitely be first if there was a competition to rub someone's nose in it.

The corner of Luo Feng's mouth that was barely curled up fell off: "We've broken up. How can I hold her up now that I'm ill?"

He was not Auntie Xianglin who would pour out his grievances to anyone he met even though he hated Xing Miaomiao's heartlessness.

Ai Tingya's eyes were filled with heartache hearing Luo Feng's answer. She, who was originally sitting like a statue, leaned forward and closed the distance between her and Luo Feng while gently holding his hand.

"It's okay. I'll always be with you."

Her fragrance and the gentle voice were like the endless spring rain. Luo Feng's dry heart felt a trace of warmth. 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟ｅｌ.ｃ𝚘𝚖

He smiled and retracted his hand without hesitation. "Thank you. And thank you for paying my medical fees."

Ai Tingya's smile gradually became embarrassed. "So you knew. I knew I couldn't hide it from you."

There were many caring people in society, but Luo Feng didn't think he would be able to meet them so coincidentally. He must have accumulated good karma if the Heavens did not help him.

Who would have thought that the boiled egg that he despised in high school could help him exchange for a chance to extend his life?

Ai Tingya took a deep breath and continued seeing that Luo Feng didn't reply. "I've been paying attention to you since graduation. I was very anxious when I found out that you didn't have enough money to stay in the hospital. I originally wanted to transfer you to a better hospital, but I was afraid that you wouldn't be willing, so I used this method to help you."

She was mentally prepared before she came. She was worried that she would agitate Luo Feng when she heard about his condition from the doctor.

Ai Tingya knew that it would be too late if she did not tell him the things she wanted to tell him!

She gathered her courage and held Luo Feng's hand again, speaking seriously. "Don't reject me, alright? I know you've experienced a lot of pain, but there's still someone in this world who loves you wholeheartedly, so you have to live well even if it's for me!"

Ai Tingya could clearly hear her heart beating as she spoke, exactly like how it fluttered everytime she took the boiled egg in the past.

Perhaps Luo Feng didn't know that back then. Ai Tingya, who was an orphan, felt inferior and timid. She felt like a snail and wished she could hide in her shell forever. She had nothing for her other than studying. Luo Feng's boiled egg was like a savior to her. She strengthened her belief in moving forward every time she ate one…

Until she made a name for herself and became the CEO.

Her identity and mentality had changed. The only thing that remained unchanged was her longing for Luo Feng.

In the past, it was inconvenient for her to appear due to Luo Feng's girlfriend, so she appeared too late.

Ai Tingya looked at Luo Feng with a heart full of hope, hoping that he wouldn't pull his hand back and reject her.

"Thank you, Ai Tingya."

This was the third time Luo Feng thanked Ai Tingya today. He didn't move his hand.

Luo Feng looked back at Ai Tingya's gentle gaze and thought. "She really likes me? But I'm about to die so I can't respond to her feelings… But if doing this makes her happy, then so be it"

Luo Feng's first reaction wasn't happiness, but regret, regret that he made the wrong choice…

Ai Tingya smiled, seeing that Luo Feng didn't reject her.

From then on, Ai Tingya would visit Luo Feng in the ward whenever she was free.

There was still a week before the official surgery. Ai Tingya used her connections to invite the best doctor to Luo Feng's hospital and bought the most advanced equipment at a high price at the doctor's request.

The work outside was in full swing, as if everything was developing in a good direction.

Only Luo Feng knew that he wouldn't be able to last until the day of surgery.

He lay on the bed and heard Ai Tingya discussing the details of the surgery with the doctor in the corridor. His consciousness gradually faded.

Luo Feng knew that time was up. The sounds from the outside world seemed to have been blown away by the wind.

Suddenly!

An ethereal voice sounded in his mind. "What would you wish for if you could live your life again?"

"I hope I have a pair of discerning eyes and make the right choice!" Luo Feng blurted out.

The questioner was like a God, who came and left as fast as the wind.

Luo Feng's heavy eyelids were torn open by the light. He followed the light and was swallowed by it.

Luo Feng sucked in a breath of cold air when he opened his eyes again. His leg knocked against the table and kicked the student in front of him.

A young face turned around and complained. "Luo Feng, do you want to die? F*cking hell!"

Luo Feng hugged his numb knees. His sensitive sense of smell picked up the smell of ink, paper, chalk dust, and spicy sticks in the air… The familiar smell enveloped him like a flood.

Luo Feng realized that he was sitting in the classroom with a young girl beside him!

Chapter 3: Getting Close to You, You Want Me to Focus on Learning?

"Luo Feng, do you want to die!?" Cursed the student in front of him.

Luo Feng was still in shock. He hugged his knees and stared at the boy in the front row with his eyes wide open. This person's appearance was too unique. The top of his head was like a cruel competitive circle, and every strand of hair had its own territory. They didn't disturb each other, and when they gathered together, it was the most fashionable afro style in that era.

Luo Feng always relied on this person's hair to sneak a nap when he was in school.

"Lei Jin, you're not bald yet?" Luo Feng was overjoyed. This lush head would turn into "adult-mode" in a few years' time after all.

Lei Jin, the afro boy, rolled his eyes at Luo Feng and said angrily, "Have you gone silly from sleeping? What nonsense are you talking about!"

Luo Feng wanted to reply, but he heard an impatient roar from the podium.

"Why are the students at the back arguing? I can hear your voices from the podium! Why don't you come up and talk?" The form teacher, Yu Pingrong, waved her pointer, the bamboo stick, which made a whooshing sound in the air.

She was short, but her voice was loud. She was very strict with her students usually. The students went silent with the deterrence of the pointer.

Lei Jin rolled his eyes at Luo Feng and turned around.

Just as everyone thought that class was about to continue, Teacher Yu added. "Lei Jin, why haven't you cut your hair? Get your mother here tomorrow!"

The audience immediately burst into suppressed laughter. Lei Jin buried his head and cursed Luo Feng 10,000 times in his heart.

Luo Feng laughed as well. He raised his head and looked around at the familiar environment.

The dark green curtains, the familiar blue school uniform, and the crew cuts and ponytails were both novel and nostalgic.

Luo Feng's aching knee kept reminding him that everything was real!

He was reborn!

He was reborn in his high school days!

His deskmate did not laugh along with the rest of the class. She was staring at the blackboard with a pen in her hand.

Ai Tingya was in a very difficult situation when she was a student. Her washed-out school uniform was an inheritance from her previous senior. Her head was curled up at the back of her neck in a daze. She had always shrank into herself due to her inferiority complex.

Her entire body was screaming the word 'unremarkable'. It was really unimaginable that she would be an elite in the business world in the future.

What was even more unbelievable to Luo Feng was that the person who would accompany him to the end of his life would be Ai Tingya. He could only blame himself for having poor judgment when he was young and mistook the scumbag girl for a treasure. He had to seize this opportunity after being reborn!

He supported his chin with his hand and sized up Ai Tingya brazenly.

Right at this moment, Luo Feng felt his vision blur.

He raised his hand to rub his eyes and realized that there was a floating golden symbol above Ai Tingya's head.

He then turned towards the other students. There was actually a string of percentage numbers above their heads. From one to dozens, they looked like random numbers.

Luo Feng looked at these numbers in confusion, not understanding what they meant. Was it referring to luck or lifespan?

When he looked at Ai Tingya again, there was no number above her head, but an endless symbol!

If the numbers represent lifespan, would it mean that Ai Tingya would live until the end of time? Luo Feng shook his head and rejected this idea.

He recalled the last moments of his previous life. He was asked what he would wish for if he could live another life. Luo Feng said he wanted a pair of discerning eyes, therefore this string of numbers he saw must have some special meaning, so he had to slowly explore it.

"Why do you keep looking at me?"

Ai Tingya asked timidly just at that moment.

She tilted her head slightly, not daring to look directly at Luo Feng. She took a quick glance before retracting her gaze like a little rabbit. Her entire body felt uncomfortable sensing his gaze. It was as if there were burrs on her butt, as if she could shake off Luo Feng's gaze just by moving.

She looked very pitiful when she cowered.

Luo Feng noticed the pen in her hand.

He remembered that he had accidentally kicked the cap of this pen away. The reason why it left such a deep impression on him was because he saw Ai Tingya squatting in the aisle and searching for it below the seats after school.

Ai Tingya was born in an orphanage. She had no parents, so she felt that even buying a pen was a burden to the orphanage. Luo Feng, who had a happy family, might not be able to understand the feeling of grieving overnight for a pen cap.

More importantly, Luo Feng felt that Ai Tingya was making a mountain out of a molehill, so he didn't think much of it and went home at that point in time.

Luo Feng's heart ached thinking of this. He took out a new pen from the drawer and pushed it to Ai Tingya: "Sorry I lost your pen cap, this is for you."

Ai Tingya looked at him in surprise and then at the pen on the table. She only said. "Pay attention to the class." Then, she buried her head in her notebook.

Luo Feng knew that she wasn't a greedy person. Ai Tingya wouldn't accept a pen for a pen cap, so he simply took Ai Tingya's pen and threw the new pen to her.

"The ink of your pen looks like it can run more smoothly, let's exchange pens." He said forcefully.

Ai Tingya didn't dare to snatch it back since she was in class. She stole a glance at Luo Feng, pursed her lips, and unscrewed the cap of her pen. She continued to pretend that she didn't care and take notes, but her tightly pursed lips betrayed the nervousness in her heart.

How could Luo Feng not understand Ai Tingya's personality after being deskmates for two years? She would definitely change them back after class given her strong self-esteem.

Luo Feng wanted to be nice to her, but he was afraid of scaring her. He rolled his eyes and suddenly had an idea.

"Ai Tingya, the semester exams are nearly here. Can you tutor me?" Luo Feng leaned nearer to Ai Tingya and whispered to her.

Ai Tingya subconsciously dodged. She covered her ears that were hot from the whisper and repeated. "Focus on the class!"

What a model student.

Luo Feng sighed in his heart. He might be the first guy to be so close to Ai Tingya. Her face was as red as the red clouds in the sky, but she could still force herself to focus on the blackboard.

No wonder her future was promising. This might be the difference between a top student and a bad student.

Actually, Luo Feng himself wasn't a bad student.

His grades were above average even though they weren't top notch. His form teacher's evaluation of him was: "Smart, but he doesn't put in the effort." Moreover, he was considered a mischievous type who could easily lead other students astray because he was unrestrained and loved freedom.

Hence, he took the last few rows with a group of bad students and became neighbors with the trash can.

Ai Tingya was in the last few rows because she requested it. She felt that she would feel the gaze of others if she sat in the front row, so she sat at the back.

Luo Feng knew that he couldn't strike up a conversation during class, so he could only wait for the bell to ring.

Luo Feng made up his mind. He must be responsible for Ai Tingya and not let her suffer anymore because of how she cared for him in his previous life, as well as her deep-rooted feelings for him!

Moreover, even though he didn't know what the string of mysterious numbers visible to him represented for the time being, they definitely had some special guidance. Luo Feng would definitely seize this opportunity! He would pull Ai Tingya along to the peak of her life!

Chapter 4: The First Step Of The Strategy, Prepare To Feed!

"Hey, hey, hey, Luo Feng, why did you keep pestering Ai Tingya during class? I heard everything!"

Lei Jin turned around and teased Luo Feng and Ai Tingya with a perverted smile as soon as the bell rang.

Ai Ting Ya couldn't listen to these words. She hugged her notebook and chased after the teacher, not giving Luo Feng a chance to speak.

Luo Feng glared at Lei Jin and said. "It's all your fault for disturbing my plans!"

Lei Jin came over and winked. "What's so fun about it? Tell your bro and I'll treat you to grilled sausages."

It was dinner time.

Most students, other than Ai Tingya running to the office, either ran to the cafeteria or went to the school gate.

Luo Feng wasn't in a hurry since he still had two self-study sessions after dinner. He accepted Lei Jin's invitation and the two of them headed to the school gate.

"Why did you suddenly think of asking Ai Tingya to tutor you? Didn't you say that you were taking Xing Miaomiao to the amusement park this weekend?"

Lei Jin continued to question Luo Feng, as curious as a cat that smelled fish at night while they were eating.

It's said that it's easy for people with many thoughts to lose their hair. Luo Feng finally knew why the back of his head was bald.

"Forget it, I can't afford to offend her." Luo Feng retorted angrily.

It was impossible for him to be alone in the hospital without Xing Miaomiao's 'help' in his previous life. Putting aside the fact that Luo Feng was hurt by her, he knew very well how much money she took from him!

Lei Jin was puzzled. "Do you mean Xing Miaomiao or Ai Tingya when you say 'her'?"

Everyone in the class knew that Luo Feng liked Xing Miaomiao. He bought her food and helped her copy her homework. Xing Miaomiao didn't say anything explicitly, but she didn't reject him and smiled sweetly at his every gesture.

In Lei Jin's impression, Luo Feng definitely wouldn't describe Xing Miaomiao that way.

As for Ai Tingya… Everyone in class knows that she's invisible. Almost no one pays attention to her other than her name on the results board. How could Luo Feng say that she can't be offended?

Luo Feng saw that he was randomly analyzing again and changed the topic. "Go get your haircut during the holidays, maybe you can still keep the roots."

Lei Jin shook his head coolly at the mention of his hairstyle and said. "Why are you as old-fashioned as Teacher Yu? Didn't you say that my hairstyle is invincible just two days ago? It cost more than 200 yuan!"

Luo Feng felt his heart ache for him upon hearing the price he paid.

"Listen to others' advice to eat your fill. You're always messing with your hair, worrying that they'll leave you." Luo Feng joked.

The two of them chatted as they walked. They arrived at the fried rice stall unknowingly.

There was a temporary food street at the entrance of the school once it was lunchtime. All the nearby snack stalls with good taste gathered here and occupied an entire pedestrian street.

Luo Feng always felt like he was on inspection every time he passed by this place. The skewers were sizzling with oil, the stir-fried dishes were smoky, and the cold dishes with red oil were eye-catching. All the snacks on the stalls were in their best condition, waiting for the students to inspect them.

Luo Feng walked in front of the fried rice stall and stretched out two fingers: "Boss, one serving of shredded green pepper fried rice with two eggs! Scramble them a little more!"

Lei Jin laughed. "So nourishing today?"

Luo Feng glanced at him and said, "Hurry up and buy me grilled sausages. Also, buy me a cup of tea to drink, the kind of tea that can relieve oiliness."

The fried rice at the school gate was the most outstanding store in the "temporary food street." The boss would also add all kinds of fresh vegetables in addition to the designated meat dishes. He was also very willing to add oil. Every grain of fried rice was shiny with oil.

Luo Feng bought some snacks, taking advantage of the time used to fry the rice.

Lei Jin was shocked when he brought the fried rice to Lei Jin, who was queuing up to buy tea.

"You're going to give them to Xing Miaomiao again? Are you really going to marry her?"

Luo Feng smiled and didn't say anything, only urging him to speed up.

After buying dinner, the two of them did not settle it by the roadside but went straight back.

Teacher Yu did not allow them to bring the outside snacks back to the classroom because the smell was too strong and would affect others. However, it was fine to finish them before the evening self-study as long as they did not find it troublesome.

There were already people who had returned from dinner when Luo Feng and Lei Jin entered the classroom.

Ai Tingya had also returned. She was sitting in her seat and eating a head of vegetables with a bag of pickled vegetables in front of her.

Luo Feng carried his food and walked towards her excitedly. Before long, a black shadow appeared in front of him and blocked his path.

Luo Feng took a closer look. It was Xing Miaomiao!

Her long black hair was loose, and she had light makeup on her exquisite smiling face. Her cherry lips were soft and moist and her black grape-like eyes looked up from below with such delicate admiration.

Luo Feng had to admit that Xing Miaomiao was very beautiful even though he hated her. All the girls in the class were just a backdrop with her around. The Ai Tingya at this stage couldn't compare to her either.

However, Ai Tingya's foundation was much better than hers. It was just that it was easy to ignore her since she hid it.

"Luo Feng, you brought me so much food again. You're the best!" Xing Miaomiao habitually thought that Luo Feng brought her food.

Luo Feng had indeed done that in the past. He practically bought all of Xing Miaomiao's dinner. He still bought her delicious food even if he didn't have enough living expenses. His actions back then were quite bootlicking.

The female voices surrounding Xing Miaomiao joined in the commotion.

"Miaomiao is so lucky. Luo Feng treats you so well!"

"The things he bought today are so sumptuous. There's also Miaomiao's favorite drink."

"When are you going to treat us to the wedding candy?"

The sound of laughter attracted the attention of the other students, who immediately joined in the teasing. 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝙣𝒐𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎

Xing Miaomiao stood in the center of everyone's sight like a female lead, her face flushed with happiness.

In her eyes, Luo Feng was indeed a good match. His family background wasn't bad, and he was very generous to her. It made her feel very proud especially since he never hid his love for her.

Xing Miaomiao extended her hand and said, "Our classmates really like to joke around. Thank you, Luo Feng."

Luo Feng turned sideways and avoided Xing Miaomiao's hand that was stretched out for the food. "Xing Miaomiao, don't you still need to lose weight? You're wasting food by eating and trying to lose weight." He said coldly.

After saying that, he walked around Xing Miaomiao and placed everything beside Ai Tingya.

"I bought a bit too much, help me eat some, it won't be good if the food is wasted." Luo Feng smiled and said to Ai Ting Ya.

Ai Tingya couldn't sit still. She was so shocked that she didn't know what to say. She stared at Luo Feng with an "Are you okay?" expression.

The other students were shocked.

It was enough to film a few episodes of the TV series based on Luo Feng's attitude towards Xing Miaomiao just now. They were whispering to each other, wondering if Xing Miaomiao and Luo Feng had fallen out.

Xing Miaomiao felt extremely embarrassed as the center of attention. Her face turned from red to white and finally green as if she had eaten a green-headed fly. "Tsk, who wants it!" She growled.

She ran out of the classroom angrily with that.

Luo Feng didn't even bat an eyelid. He continued to persuade Ai Tingya like a human trafficker. "The steamed bun won't last until tomorrow morning. Help me eat some, or else it'll be a waste, don't you think?"

Chapter 5: You've Eaten My Food So You've To Tutor Me!

"Hurry up and eat." Luo Feng urged one last time before opening the lunch box and pushing it in front of Ai Tingya.

The ingredients for the fried rice were visibly rich. It might be called fried rice but it was more like some rice added to the stir-fried vegetables. The smell of the food was encased in the fragrance of the oil and all of which slammed onto Ai Tingya's face.

The steamed buns and pickled vegetables instantly became tasteless.

Ai Tingya gulped. She wasn't in a hurry to eat. Instead, she sat up straight and stared at Luo Feng.

Luo Feng had been acting weird since he woke up from his nap. He's been staring at her, changing pens and bringing her food.

No one, other than the Director of the orphanage, had ever treated her so well. The sudden kindness made Ai Tingya avoid him instinctively. She would rather not accept it because she had nothing to repay him.

"Luo Feng, what are you doing?" Ai Tingya pretended to be angry, "I have dinner, I don't need yours."

She took a bite from the steamed bun to show her determination.

Luo Feng looked at Ai Tingya quietly. He knew that Ai Tingya was trying to protect her fragile self-esteem. He had to find all sorts of reasons to get her to help him eat his boiled egg in his previous life.

It would be useless no matter what he said. Luo Feng simply snatched Ai Tingya's steamed bun and took a bite beside the place where she bit. "I'll eat yours, and you'll eat mine. This should be fair, right?"

The surrounding students shushed him and teased. "Oh! An indirect kiss!"

Ai Tingya lost her composure and her face turned red with embarrassment. She leaned forward in a bid to snatch back it, but noticed that her classmates were looking at her. She retracted and maintained her straight back, saying angrily. "You have it. I have other things!"

It would have been better if she hadn't mentioned it. The moment she did, Luo Feng noticed the pickled vegetables that came with it. He grabbed the pickled vegetables and poured them into the fried rice, not forgetting to praise Ai Tingya. "You're really thoughtful. The fried rice is indeed a bit oily. It's better to eat it with some refreshing pickled vegetables"

"You!" Ai Tingya was furious. She could eat that amount of pickled vegetables for a few days! Half of it was poured out at once.

"Don't be angry! I have something to ask of you. You ignored me in class, so I had no choice but to do this." Luo Feng quickly explained.

Ai Tingya was still feeling sorry for the pickled vegetables. She pouted when she heard that he had a request and said. "What do you want from me?"

Luo Feng chuckled: "Didn't I already say that I want you to tutor me for the semester exams?"

Ai Tingya rolled her eyes at him as if she was looking at a fool.

Half a semester has just passed, there are topics that we have yet to cover. Who would study for the semester exams now? She thought to herself.

"I mean it! Think about it, we have six subjects. It's better to plan ahead since I definitely can't make up for it during the end of the semester." Luo Feng added.

Actually, his grades were above average. He only needed to put in a little effort to improve. In his previous life, he quickly improved his grades in the last half of the semester in order to chase after his love. He managed to get into the same university as Xing Miaomiao.

However, Ai Tingya had strong self-esteem, so he had to smooth things over.

Ai Tingya agreed with what Luo Feng said. She couldn't just stand by and do nothing since Luo Feng wanted to improve himself. "O-Okay, I can tutor you, but don't buy me these next time." She agreed with some reluctance.

"Let's leave it for the next time." laughed Luo Feng. He would say anything as long as Ai Tingya was willing to eat.

Luo Feng unscrewed the cap of the bottle and stuffed the drink into Ai Tingya's hand taking advantage of the momentum. "It's a bit dry, moisturize your throat."

Ai Tingya was full of doubts. She took a bite with uncertainty. The food smacked her lips and she looked like she liked it very much.

At this moment, Luo Feng's phone in his bag buzzed.

He picked it up and realized that it was a message from the bank. There was suddenly 200 yuan extra in his account!

Luo Feng was stunned for a moment because this bank card was activated half a year ago. At that time, his parents were out of town for long periods of time, so the bank card was mainly used to receive living expenses. No one else knew about it other than his parents. 𝘣𝑒𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭．𝑜𝘳𝘨

His parents were both at home recently so this card was almost out of Luo Feng's memory.

Luo Feng didn't understand what was going on.

"Right, when do you want to start the tuition?" Ai Tingya interrupted Luo Feng's thoughts.

Luo Feng said, "Saturday, the day after tomorrow, are you free?"

Ai Tingya nodded and said, "Okay."

Ai Tingya had to free up her time even if she wasn't. This meal made her feel uneasy so she decided to return the money. "How much was the meal?"

Luo Feng was thinking about something and casually replied: "20 yuan, why?"

Ai Tingya shook her head and lowered her head. She felt that the food in her stomach had become heavier.

Luo Feng assumed that they had an appointment for tuition. The 200 yuan in his card was strange and coincidental. Could it be that someone sent it to him wrongly? Or did his father transfer his private savings to him?

Someone would ask him for it anyway. Luo Feng put this matter aside after thinking this through.

The evening self-study session passed quickly.

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya were both day students. Luo Feng was thinking of sending Ai Tingya back when he was packing his bag. His home was near the school, and it would only take him a few minutes to get there by bicycle. Ai Tingya's orphanage was in the suburbs, so it would take her half an hour to walk there.

However, Ai Tingya had already disappeared when he looked up.

Luo Feng sighed and left the classroom with his bag.

Lei Jin took this opportunity to pester Luo Feng again. He was very interested in Luo Feng's relationship situation, it was practically written all over his face.

"Kid, you must have something on! Why are you suddenly ignoring Xing Miaomiao? You brought her half a semester worth of food. It was not easy for her to have a good impression of you!" Lei Jin persuaded earnestly, feeling a little regretful about that budding relationship.

Luo Feng said impolitely, "In terms of looks alone, Ai Tingya might not be worse than Xing Miaomiao, and looks doesn't mean anything. Capability is the most important thing!"

He had to quickly hug Ai Tingya's thigh and establish the foundation of "Don't forget each other when you're rich!"

To make it sound more professional, Ai Tingya was his first investment after his rebirth!

Lei Jin was enlightened when he heard that. "So you're preparing to leave the back rows. Damn it, you beat me to it. Bring me along."

Luo Feng waved his hand and left Lei Jin where he was, "I believe in your potential to be a third wheel, so I can't. However, if you really want to learn, I'll be responsible for teaching you. That's all, bye bye."

Lei Jin had been to the hospital before, after all. He had helped him when he was in his most difficult situation. He could help this brother who had been in the same class as him. Not only with his studies, but also with his hair.

Lei Jin cursed at Luo Feng's back and left angrily on his bicycle when he heard that Luo Feng clearly valued his lover over his friend.

Luo Feng heard his mother calling him from the room just as he put down the key upon returning home: "Little Feng, you're back? There's a cake on the table, I left it for you for supper"

Luo Feng felt a lump in his throat hearing the voice that he hadn't heard in a long time. He endured the change in tone: "I understand, rest early."

"You too. Don't sneak around reading novels." His mother said and the room lights went out.

Luo Feng quietly returned to his room. The familiar environment made him feel extremely relaxed. Everything was exactly the same as he remembered.

He pulled open the desk drawer, took out the miscellaneous items inside and found the bank card with money at the bottom most level.

Chapter 6: Son, You Dare Bring Someone Home?

No one remembered Luo Feng's bank card until his parents passed away.

Therefore, no one knew that there was money inside.

Luo Feng had no way of finding an answer for the extra 200 yuan that came out of nowhere. He could only wait for time to give him an answer.

Luo Feng had a premonition that this card would be of great use to him in the future. He found all the cards of similar sizes in the room, including the abandoned bus card, the hospital advertisement card issued by the roadside, and the extra access card. He then sandwiched the bank card inside and tied it up with a rubber band before putting it in the drawer.

This way, his mum would not dig this card out even if she were to tidy his room.

After doing all this, Luo Feng lay on his bed and fell asleep.

The next morning, he woke up early and took the breakfast that his mother had prepared for him. Among them was a boiled egg that was a constant in his life.

In the past, he didn't like the bland taste of boiled eggs. He despised the yolk choking his throat. Now, it was different. These boiled eggs would become his paving stones.

Luo Feng was in a great mood, humming a tune as he walked into the classroom.

Ai Tingya was the only one in the classroom in the morning. She was sitting in her seat and studying her textbook.

As usual, Luo Feng stuffed the boiled egg into Ai Tingya's hands and said. "This is for today."

Ai Tingya pursed her lips and lowered her head in silence.

The fried rice from the previous day seemed to still be stuck in her stomach. Ai Tingya originally wanted to return the money to Luo Feng, but she was still a bit short. 20 yuan wasn't a lot, but it would take a long time for her to save up.

Luo Feng didn't know what was wrong with her since she did not speak at all. He didn't interact much with Ai Tingya in his previous life. Ai Tingya was gentle and talkative in Luo Feng's last days, so why did she look like she was eating a gourd now?

"I'll send you home after school today. I'll show you where I live." Luo Feng tried to find something to talk about.

Ai Tingya agreed, trying her best not to overthink it. "Okay."

Luo Feng relaxed, since it seemed like they could communicate normally.

…

Luo Feng was packing his bag after school.

Lei Jin stood up and pressed down on his bag. "No school tomorrow. Let's go to the arcade today? I heard there were a few new machines."

"No." Luo Feng rejected decisively. "I have something on, you can go by yourself."

After saying that, he subconsciously glanced at Ai Tingya. She had already packed up and was waiting. Her bright eyes coincidentally met Luo Feng's.

Lei Jin felt like he was glowing brightly as he stood there. His first reaction was. "Luo Feng, you were serious?"

Luo Feng rolled his eyes at him: "What do you mean 'serious', is it weird to have tuition?"

After saying that, he left the classroom with Ai Tingya.

Ai Tingya didn't have a bicycle, so she sat in Luo Feng's back seat.

"I ride pretty fast so it's safer for you to hold onto me." Luo Feng told her.

Ai Tingya was a little embarrassed but she didn't reject him. She obediently wrapped her arms around Luo Feng's waist from behind.

She buried her head to the side, hiding her flushed cheeks. She closed her eyes and felt the bicycle gradually speed up. The voices of her classmates' gossiping had already been thrown to the back of her mind before she could listen to them carefully.

Luo Feng returned to his residential area after a while.

The surrounding uncles and aunties with nothing to do, saw him with a girl and started gossiping.

"Hey— Who's that, the child of the Luo family?"

"Yes, he's from the Luo family. Yoyoyo, who's that sitting behind him?"

"Young people nowadays are really bold. I did not even dare to hold my wife's hand when we were dating."

"I brought my wife back on a bicycle."

"Isn't this too early? He's not even fully grown yet and he's already getting a girlfriend."

The uncles and aunties didn't mind their volume. All the key words fell into Ai Tingya's ears. She was so embarrassed that she didn't dare raise her head, and the strength in her arms kept increasing. She wrapped her arms around Luo Feng's waist like a koala bear.

Luo Feng could clearly feel the temperature in his lower back rising.

"We're here." He pretended to smile calmly and parked the bicycle under a window sill.

"The uncles and aunties here have nothing better to do other than to comment on things that don't concern them, don't mind them." Luo Feng explained.

Even though he said that, Luo Feng was secretly thanking the uncles and aunties for stating the obvious. He was worried that he was in too much of a hurry to get closer to Ai Tingya these past two days, which might cause her to dislike him, so he took this opportunity to test her.

"It's okay." Ai Tingya pulled her messy hair behind her ear and tried her best to hide her flushed face.

She is shy.

Luo Feng relaxed. This was his first investment, so he had to pay attention to whether Ai Tingya treated him the same as before.

"Let's go." Luo Feng invited. "My house is on the first floor, let me help you carry your bag."

"Okay…" Ai Tingya's voice was as soft as a kitten's.

She felt as if she had been electrocuted when Luo Feng's hand touched her fingertips. Her legs felt as if they were stepping on clouds, as if she was floating in a dream.

She was just on her way here to see the tuition venue, but why did she feel so nervous, as though she was about to meet his parents as his girlfriend? A few steps more and she would be in Luo Feng's house!

In Ai Tingya's opinion, this place made her more nervous than the solemn Buddhist hall.

"Erm, Luo Feng, I'll head back first now that I know where your home is." Ai Tingya said timidly.

"Hm?" Luo Feng didn't understand. "Let's go in and have a seat since we're already here. My parents are very nice."

Ai Tingya looked around in panic at the mention of his parents, looking for an impeccable excuse to escape through the cracks in the bricks.

Suddenly!

Ai Tingya saw a middle-aged woman standing on the windowsill on the first floor.

The woman's face was filled with shock. Her fingers that were holding onto the melon seeds were suspended in the air as she stared at him. What was worse was that the woman's eyes and eyebrows were similar to Luo Feng's.

"Mom? Why are you standing here?" Luo Feng came over and happened to see his mother munching on melon seeds and listening to gossip.

Who knew that the gossip was of her own household?

Mother Luo only came back to her senses when Luo Feng called out to her. She then walked into the house, shouting as she walked: "Old Luo, your son has brought someone home!"

The voice-activated lights on the third floor lit up. Luo Feng was in the third year of high school. This was still explicitly forbidden no matter how loose Father and Mother Luo's educational philosophy was!

Ai Tingya turned around and left. "Your mother misunderstood. I… I'd better go back first!"

Luo Feng stopped her. "It would be alright if we just explained the misunderstanding, are you going to leave me in the lurch?"

Ai Tingya wouldn't dare to come back if Luo Feng forcefully pulled her into the house. So, he had to show his weakness!

Ai Tingya felt that the soft spot in her heart had been accurately poked. It would indeed seem like she was guilty if she ran away just like that. They could just explain the truth.

She quickly changed her mind. "Fine. I'll leave after explaining."

Luo Feng's plan succeeded. He smiled and led the way. "That's right, this is nothing."

There was no need for him to take out his keys. The door was ajar since Mother Luo had already unlocked it.

The two of them pushed open the door and entered. Father and Mother Luo sat on both sides of the dining table like guards. They sized up the two people standing at the door with serious expressions. Words of advice were already lingering on the tip of their tongues. 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝗻𝗼𝘃𝐞𝗹．𝗻𝐞𝘁

"Luo Feng! Get over here!" Mother Luo raged.

Chapter 7: Mom's Acknowledgment, Go And Date!

"Luo Feng, get over here!" Mother Luo raged.

Luo Feng's parents sat on either side of him. They looked like the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother interrogating a small deity. Luo Feng's memory was awakened. His mother called him by his full name, which meant that he was in deep trouble.

"Dad, mom, what's wrong?" Luo Feng forced a smile.

Mother Luo did not say anything. She glared at him fiercely and turned to Ai Tingya.

The girl in front of him shrank into herself. Her hair covered most of her face, and her big, bright eyes darted around in fear. In the end, she lowered her head, making it impossible to see her appearance. All that coupled with her obviously old school uniform.

Mother Luo started to worry about her son's aesthetic taste after being worried that he would fall in love at a young age.

Did he do something out of line that required him to bring this ugly duckling-like girl back home?

Mother Luo's mind exploded like a volcano. She grabbed Luo Feng's ear angrily and walked into the room, leaving Father Luo to "guard" Ai Tingya.

BANG!

Ads by Pubfuture

The bedroom door was slammed shut.

Luo Mu threw Luo Feng's ear away, lowering her voice. "D-Did you do something you shouldn't have?"

"Ouch…" Luo Feng rubbed his reddened ears. "What is something that I shouldn't have?"

Mother Luo was furious. Her hands seemed to be rubbing spiral pills as she kept gesturing on her stomach, unable to say anything.

Luo Feng twisted his face and looked at her for a while before saying. "You're really thinking too much. She's the top student in our class and came to tutor me out of kindness. Not only did you not thank her, you even scared her."

Luo Feng bypassed Mother Luo and ran out before she could straighten her thoughts.

In the living room, Ai Tingya stood at the door with her hands knitted together, looking at Father Luo awkwardly.

"Let's talk about it tomorrow." She said, seeing Luo Feng walk out of the room, as if she had found her savior.

That meant she was going to reject the idea!

Luo Feng raised his hand and was about to stop her when he felt a shadow flash past him. Mother Luo held Ai Tingya's arm intimately and pulled her into the house with a smile.

"Why are you leaving so soon? I still don't know your name. It's rare for you to come here, so you must have dinner with us." Mother Luo said eagerly.

Luo Feng was relying on her to tutor him. As a mother, of course she had to make up for the bad first impression.

Ai Tingya was forcibly pulled back like a kitten. Mother Luo had already entered the kitchen, raised the kitchen knife and cut the pork ribs on the chopping board in half before she could refuse. She busied herself by preparing dinner.

Father Luo and his wife had a tacit understanding for many years. Even though he did not know what had happened, he restrained his image as a strict father and picked up the newspaper to cover his face.

"Have dinner here, I'll send you back after it." Luo Feng said apologetically.

The fragrance of rice from the kitchen continuously blended into the air in the living room. Mother Luo's magical hand speed silently urged Ai Tingya to stay. It was too late to refuse.

Ai Tingya stayed in Luo Feng's house for no apparent reason. A sumptuous meal was already on the table before long.

Mother Luo kept placing food into her bowl with utmost enthusiasm.

"What's your name?"

"Auntie, my name is Ai Tingya…"

"What a nice name. Little Feng didn't even tell me that he wanted to bring a classmate home. It's just a simple meal. Don't mind it. Hurry up and eat!"

Ai Tingya bit her chopsticks and looked at the braised prawns, pork trotters in sauce, stir-fried eel, and a large pot of tomato brisket soup on the table. The orphanage only had such dishes during the new year, and they were always limited in quantity.

"Thank you, Auntie. You eat too." Ai Tingya's sensitive self-esteem forced her to carry on. She would rather that she was having these dishes in a restaurant because that way, she could pack them up and bring them back to the orphanage.

"Student Ai, what do your parents do?" Mother Luo took the opportunity to inquire about the family situation of the "tutor." 𝐛𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝐦

Luo Feng, who was peeling prawns, stopped when he heard this. He thought to himself, "Mom, you really touched a sore spot."

He looked at Ai Tingya worriedly and saw a sad smile on her lips. She replied frankly. "I don't have parents. I grew up in an orphanage."

Mother Luo put down her chopsticks and looked at Ai Tingya's old but clean school uniform and proper table manners. Her heart suddenly ached.

Initially, she only thought that Ai Tingya was a tutor and only wanted to please her. After learning about Ai Tingya's background, she liked her even more. She picked up the food even more diligently and kept doing the same rotation.

"Come, Tingya, eat more. Don't stand on the ceremony. From now on, Auntie's home is your home. Eat some prawns."

Mother Luo wanted to change Ai Tingya's bowl to a bigger bowl when it couldn't hold anymore food.

Luo Feng said. "My mom's prawns are the best. You must eat more."

He picked up one and did not expect Mother Luo to knock it away with her chopsticks. "Your prawn shells are almost covering the dining table. Why are you still eating? You don't even improve even if you just eat them. Why don't you learn from Tingya?"

Excuse me?

Whose mother are you?

Luo Feng watched in shock as Mother Luo snatched the prawn and placed it in Ai Tingya's shaky bowl. She didn't care if her son was full or not.

Father Luo looked at his son with pity and picked up a piece of celery from the stir-fried eel for him. "You're already so tall. Eat some celery to nourish your brain." He said calmly.

What do you mean? I'm tall without a brain?

Has this harmonious family always been so fragile?

Luo Feng obediently put the celery into his mouth and didn't dare to reply. He knew that his parents would join forces to preach and start to dig up old scores from elementary school if he said one more word.

However, his silence did not make Mother Luo let him go. Mother Luo let go of the grudge in her heart, feeling regret for not meeting Ai Tingya earlier.

"What else do you like to do besides studying?"

"Your skin is so fair, it's so good to be fair naturally, unlike Xiao Feng, who was born as black as coal."

Mother Luo ate as she chatted, flipping through Luo Feng's dark history. It was as though she couldn't find any topics to talk about during her first meeting with her prospective daughter-in-law, so she jeered at her son like crazy. She only stopped when Luo Feng's injured world was completed.

When Luo Feng witnessed this scene, he suddenly felt that this wasn't too bad. His mother accepted Ai Tingya, and Ai Tingya was more willing to come to his house, so many things became more convenient!

Even though their current relationship was purely monetary, Luo Feng felt that he couldn't just leave her alone when he thought about how Ai Tingya was hiding special feelings for him.

After dinner.

Mother Luo held Ai Tingya's hand happily. "Tingya, you must come often. Auntie feels that we get along very well. Xiao Feng is usually unwilling to talk to us."

The more she spoke, the more ridiculous it became. Luo Feng pulled Ai Tingya and quickly left: "I'll send you back."

Mother Luo took advantage of Ai Tingya's distraction to pull Luo Feng back just as they were about to leave and whispered. "Mom is very satisfied with Tingya, mom supports you!"

A woman's heart was like a needle at the bottom of the sea.

Who were the ones who were as fierce as the God of Thunder and the Goddess of Lightning when they first entered?

"Mom, we're really just purely classmates." Luo Feng said helplessly.

Mama Luo narrowed her eyes and smiled. Her thoughts, "do you think I believe you?", clearly written across her face.

Chapter 8: My Cheat, Magical Capsule!

Ai Tingya blushed and nodded. This was the first time she had been treated so warmly by an elder. She had a good impression of Mother Luo. "Thank you, Auntie."

She obediently stood at the staircase and waited for Luo Feng to ride his bicycle. Suddenly, she heard a sound coming from the house.

"Mom, I'll send Ai Tingya back first."

The ten-minute meal lasted for an hour because of Mother Luo's enthusiasm. Time flew and it was already eight o'clock.

The orphanage had a curfew for the sake of the children's safety. Ai Tingya had to be back before nine o'clock so Mother Luo couldn't keep her even if she wanted to.

"Be careful on the road. Tingya, remember to come often!" Mother Luo was a little reluctant.

"I thought you didn't like that child, seeing the way you acted when you opened the door." Father Luo said calmly.

Mother Luo retorted loudly. "That's because I had a misunderstanding when they first arrived. Besides, I was just scaring my son. I didn't expect to scare Tingya. Fortunately, she's not angry. Otherwise, I'll regret it for the rest of my life!"

Regret it for the rest of her life?

Ads by Pubfuture

This adjective was too exaggerated for Ai Tingya.

The Director of the orphanage was a good person but there were so many children after all. He could not take care of them personally so Ai Tingya had always been very sensible. She would try her best not to cause any trouble.

She was always alone when other people her age were enjoying the love of their parents. Now, there was actually someone who cared about whether or not she would be angry.

Ai Tingya's heart was warm, as if she was bathing in the sun.

Then she heard Father Luo continue. "You were too enthusiastic just now. What if Xiao Ai doesn't come next time?"

"I can't control myself. I really like this child!" Mother Luo roared. "Xiao Feng is the same. He only asked me to prepare delicious food, but he didn't say that he was bringing his classmate home. He made me misunderstand that they are having puppy love."

"But it's okay if it's Tingya."

Mother Luo's last sentence fell into Ai Tingya's ears, making her ears burn. She left the door anxiously.

At this time, Luo Feng was waiting at the entrance of the corridor on his bicycle. He heard what Mother Luo shouted and pursed his lips to hold back his laughter.

A sumptuous dinner every Friday was family tradition. It was as immovable as mid-autumn mooncakes. That was what he had requested when he was a child. He felt that Friday was a holiday and should be celebrated with a big meal.

His lunch and dinner were either in the cafeteria or by the roadside ever since he went to high school. Mother Luo was worried that Luo Feng didn't have enough nutrition, so she prepared Friday's dinner even more diligently.

She actually used it as a reason to bait Ai Tingya today.

He would know whether or not she had feelings for him once his mother made her move!

Ai Tingya's heart was racing as she secretly looked up at Luo Feng.

This person used to laugh at her for being a bookworm. He was entangled with Xing Miaomiao in school. Why would he suddenly prepare dinner for her? Could it be that he also…

The more Ai Tingya thought about it, the more shy she became. She lowered her head and sat on the back of the bicycle, taking the initiative to hug Luo Feng's waist.

"Sit tight!" Luo Feng shouted, stepping on the pedals and sprinting out.

Ai Tingya was not as squeamish as before with the physical contact. The effect was very obvious!

All of a sudden, Luo Feng felt his waist bag becoming heavier, as if a box had been stuffed into it. Ai Tingya didn't move at all, as obedient as a canary. The thing in his bag didn't seem to have anything to do with her.

Luo Feng didn't mind it and asked Ai Tingya. "Will there be any problems with tomorrow's tuition?"

"I have no choice but to help after eating your food." Ai Tingya said casually. "My tuition is very strict. You'd better revise when you go back tonight."

"Of course, there's no problem. Teacher, I hope you won't be frightened by my potential."

Luo Feng was full of confidence. He was someone who went through the college entrance exam once, so he should be able to remember once he read through it when he's at home.

The two of them chatted and laughed, getting along a lot more naturally. However, Ai Tingya didn't want Luo Feng to be seen by her other friends in the orphanage, so she asked him to stop a street away and didn't want him to pick her up.

Ai Tingya ran away after agreeing on a time to meet the next day.

Luo Feng slowly walked back. Halfway through, he remembered the thing in his bag so he stopped at the curb and took out the box from it.

Speedy Memory Potion!

These words were printed on the palm-sized medicine box.

Luo Feng opened the medicine box and poured out its contents impatiently. A small red capsule fell into his palm.

He had spent 20 yuan on Ai Tingya previously, so he had an extra 200 yuan in his idle card. A magical capsule popped out of his bag just when he got closer to Ai Tingya!

This is my cheat!

Luo Feng didn't suspect anything and immediately swallowed the capsule.

In an instant, waves seemed to be rolling in his mind. The knowledge he had once learned quickly surged out, and the forgotten key points were marked again. His rapidly working mind urgently needed a place to vent its energy.

Luo Feng quickly returned home on his bicycle and rushed back to his bedroom under his parents' puzzled gazes.

He took out a dusty paper from the bottom of the bookcase and started writing furiously!

Mother Luo looked at Luo Feng's hardworking back as she sniffled and said emotionally: "This is the first time I've seen him take the initiative to learn after so many years. Birds of a feather flock together. I have to thank Tingya."

"That's right." Father Luo was relieved too.

The couple's performance wasn't in vain. Luo Feng's transformation was instantaneous.

They happily closed the door, not daring to disturb Luo Feng.

Luo Feng's brain heated up, his hands couldn't stop working. His brain was like a speed machine with the questions on the paper becoming incomparably simple. The root number and equations were all downgraded to questions as easy as 1+1.

The completed papers fluttered around the room. He was like a heartless homework robot. He would feel uncomfortable if he did not finish the entire paper.

Luo Feng wrote through the night before his excited brain slowly stopped. Unknowingly, he fell asleep on his desk.

"Little Feng! Little Feng, wake up! Look who's here!"

Mother Luo's voice was so excited that it went off-key. Luo Feng rubbed his eyes in a daze and looked at the clock on the table.

"It's eight thirty already?"

Luo Feng suddenly sat up straight. It was almost time for his appointment with Ai Tingya!

He stood up and rolled the messy papers on the table into a ball but saw Ai Tingya standing at the door of the room, looking at him in shock.

Ai Tingya saw the red marks on Luo Feng's face and then looked at the exam papers that were spread all over the floor. Papers with answers fluttered all over the table and bed. She didn't expect Luo Feng to be so obedient and even revised for the entire night! 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝑚

Ai Tingya's impression of Luo Feng instantly changed.

Mother Luo was even happier. Luo Feng's ability to study without regard for his own life made her feel that it was all thanks to Ai Tingya.

"You don't have to work so hard even though Tingya is coming. Hurry up and sit down. Auntie will wash some fruits for you." Mother Luo smiled until her eyes couldn't be seen and closed the door.

Ai Tingya picked up the test paper by her feet and looked at it. Her beautiful eyebrows could not help but frown.

Chapter 9: Let's Bet, You've To Obey Me If You Lose!

Ai Tingya stared at the test paper in her hand, her pupils trembling in disbelief. She then looked at Luo Feng and back at the test paper again.

This surprised look made Luo Feng feel like she wasn't looking at a test paper, but at his X-rays showing an Ultraman in it. Why would she look like she saw a ghost otherwise?

"What did you see?" Luo Feng scratched his messy hair.

Ai Tingya shook the test paper and asked. "Did you write all these? They're all correct!"

The papers were all "private work" that Luo Feng had hidden away. He used all sorts of reasons to make the papers "disappear" when he didn't want to work on them in his first and second year of high school. Ai Tingya remembered very clearly that Luo Feng always had one or two papers mysteriously missing every semester.

Then, he would ask to look at hers shamelessly.

These exam papers were filled to the brim. Every multiple-choice question had a solution step that covered all the gaps. It was even more detailed than the standard answer. Ai Tingya would have thought that Luo Feng had copied the answer if she hadn't done it herself.

Ai Tingya picked up two more pieces of paper in disbelief, still shocked.

Luo Feng's foundation was extremely solid. It could be seen that he didn't hesitate at all from the way he solved the questions smoothly. She would even admit defeat. Why would Luo Feng ask her for tuition if he had such an ability?

Ads by Pubfuture

Why?

Was he trying to provoke her?

"If you wrote all this, then you don't need me to tutor you at all. Forget it, I'm leaving. I'll leave the things in your dining room." Ai Tingya said unhappily.

Luo Feng had been busy the entire night, so his brain was running a little fast. All he heard was that Ai Tingya brought something.

"What is it?" Luo Feng asked expectantly.

Ai Tingya was still a little angry. She pouted and said. "It's just some side dishes. Don't mind it."

Luo Feng ran excitedly into the dining room and saw three plastic bags by the table. One of them was filled with green vegetable cores, another had red and green chili in it, and the last was a bag of apples.

Each bag was bulging like freshly baked bread. There was still morning dew on the vegetable leaves.

Luo Feng looked at the orphanage from afar last night and remembered that there was an apple tree in their courtyard.

"There's a piece of land behind the orphanage. Normally, we'll plant some side dishes for ourselves. I hope you don't mind." Ai Tingya stood behind and explained. She had received so much from Luo Feng but she only had these insignificant things to repay him.

Luo Feng seemed to be able to see Ai Tingya squatting in the vegetable field early in the morning, picking out the most tender vegetable cores upon hearing this. His heart ached: "It's so fresh, you must have picked them for a long time"

There was not even a worm's hole on those vegetables, let alone mud.

Ai Tingya felt a little better when she saw that her feelings were not despised. "Then I'll take my leave."

How could he let her go when the official business had yet to begin?

Luo Feng stood up and stopped her: "Don't, I've been preparing for the whole night, just so I don't drag the progress down, why don't you teach me some English, I don't really understand it."

He felt that reading short English essays was too troublesome, so he wrote all the math papers last night.

Ai Tingya's heart wavered as she cursed herself silently.

She clearly agreed to it, why was she always backing off now! Or was she a little jealous because she saw Luo Feng's results getting better…

But she knew it was wrong to do this.

Ai Tingya adjusted her mood and said, "Alright, but you stayed up late. I suggest you eat and sleep for a while before studying."

She definitely wouldn't have said that if she knew that Luo Feng stayed up all night just because of one sentence from her.

"I'm fine…" Luo Feng raised his head and yawned, "I'm very awake now, I can't sleep."

He took an apple from a bag, wiped it with his hand, and took a bite. "It's so sweet. Let's talk in the room."

The two of them returned to the room. The atmosphere tensed up the moment they closed the door.

There were many boys in the orphanage. It was more appropriate to call their rooms dormitories. Moreover, there were many children, always in groups of three to five. This was the first time she was alone with a boy.

"Then let's start from the beginning. Clean up the papers a little." Ai Tingya pretended to be calm as she sat in front of the desk.

Luo Feng randomly picked up a few papers and piled them in a corner. He then found a first-year English book and sat next to Ai Tingya.

The study table was only the width of a person. Their shoulders touched and their arms stuck to the other's. They were close enough to hear each other's breathing. Luo Feng calmly stared at the textbook and listened to Ai Tingya explain the knowledge points in the textbook word by word.

Ai Tingya was a little embarrassed and stuttered at first. However, she gradually forgot about their intimacy as the tutoring went along.

She realized that Luo Feng's English was also very good.

He was a little slow at first but he became smoother later on with a little bit of explanation.

"Are you lying to me?" Ai Tingya asked. "Not only did you write the math paper last night, but you also studied English?"

In all honesty, Luo Feng didn't even glance at the English textbooks.

However, he had learned these things before. He could not keep up with the progress at first because he had stayed up late. It was just a small matter after he recovered from the fatigue.

Luo Feng stopped pretending. "I'm easy to teach, right? Let's improve together in the future."

Ai Tingya smiled and said. "Don't be arrogant. There's still a lot to learn for the six subjects spanning over three years!"

Luo Feng said, "We'll see."

Ai Tingya's desire to win was instantly ignited. "Let's compete in memorizing the words for the new lesson. Whoever memorizes more in 30 minutes will win!"

Luo Feng glanced at the cabinet that contained the bank card and suddenly had another idea. He immediately said, "Alright! Whoever loses has to obey the other party!"

"No problem!"

The flames of war had already been ignited. Ai Tingya copied a unit of words and took them under the windowsill to memorize them. She was used to it in the orphanage. She could calm down and study, no matter how noisy it was, as long as there was a small bright place.

Luo Feng scanned through it calmly and flipped to the next unit.

He really did not want to bully Ai Tingya, but she took the initiative to challenge him.

Mother Luo knocked on the door and opened it just as the two of them were working hard to win. She left in relief when she saw their serious backs.

"Xiao Feng has never touched a book at home before. I can worry less now that he has Tingya to take care of him." Mother Luo touched her chest and was extremely satisfied with Ai Tingya.

Father Luo couldn't help but complain. "You speak as though you have found a daughter-in-law to take care of Little Feng."

Mother Luo covered her mouth and giggled. "Of course. The more I look at Tingya, the more I like her. I want her to be my goddaughter even if they don't end up together."

At this moment, Ai Tingya was seriously memorizing words. There seemed to be a barrier around her, and nothing could enter her ears.

Luo Feng heard it clearly. He had already finished his preparation and was staring at Ai Tingya with his face propped up. Her competitive figure seemed to coincide with the female CEO who took care of him in his previous life.

See, everyone liked money, but Ai Tingya's background made her feel inferior, causing her to be timid when interacting with others. Just tutoring him alone made her retreat several times.

Luo Feng was determined to help her change!

He had already thought of how to make Ai Tingya obey him even though the outcome of the competition had not been decided.

Chapter 10: You Have To Obey Me, Go And Buy Clothes!

"Let's begin!" Ai Tingya said confidently.

She was considered an older child at the orphanage, so she had to take care of other children. The sporadic learning time forced her to memorize words quickly.

Half an hour was more than enough time for her.

"Don't cry if you lose." Luo Feng smiled.

He called Mother Luo over and asked her to help read out the Chinese words.

As for Ai Tingya and him, one was leaning against the bed, and the other was leaning against the table, writing down the corresponding English word that they had memorized.

Ai Ting Ya checked her work from the beginning to the end with satisfaction finished after writing the words for the target unit. However, Mother Luo continued to read the Chinese words. Luo Feng listened to every word and wrote down the corresponding English word without any intention of stopping behind her.

What's going on? Luo Feng even memorized the next unit?

Ai Tingya looked at the mother and son in shock. Mother Luo didn't know where the end point was, so she continued to read until Luo Feng stretched. "I'm tired, let's stop here"

The light voice gave Ai Tingya a heavy blow!

She rushed over and snatched Luo Feng's notebook that had words neatly arranged on it.

It was all correct, word for word!

"The competition is over." Luo Feng stood up with his hands on his waist. "Classmate Ai Tingya, I won."

"Heh." Ai Tingya laughed. "I admit defeat. What do you want me to do?"

Mother Luo's interest was piqued when she heard that the two children had made a bet. She leaned to the side with her arms crossed as if she was watching a show.

Luo Feng scanned Ai Tingya from head to toe and said, "I'll bring you to buy some clothes."

After saying that, he bent down and took out his bank card. He avoided Mother Luo's gaze as he put it in his pocket.

"But!" Ai Tingya rejected out of habit.

Luo Feng covered her mouth and said. "I won, remember?"

She definitely could not refuse since she had said that she accepted her loss. Ai Tingya blinked and nodded in resignation.

The corners of Mother Luo's mouth almost reached the back of her ears. She thought to herself that her son was really promising. The numerous idol dramas she got him to watch at eight o'clock were not in vain. One did have to have some tricks up one's sleeve to coax a girl so that she would go out with him willingly.

"Xiao Feng, bring Tingya around more. Eat something good for lunch." Mother Luo pushed the two of them out and sent them out with a smile.

She also secretly stuffed two bills into Luo Feng's hands.

…

Crown City Commercial Street.

There were not many shopping malls in the city more than 10 years ago so shopping was mainly on the commercial streets.

There was a dazzling array of shops on both sides. New clothes were hung in the most eye-catching position. Luo Feng picked and chose and finally found a shop that was more suitable for students.

The shop assistant ignored them. She subconsciously felt that these two students' spending power was limited when they entered.

Luo Feng's hand brushed past the side of the clothes on the racks and finally grabbed onto a blue sweater. The soft fur felt very nice on the skin. He took the sweater and threw it to Ai Tingya. "This looks good, go try it on."

Ai Tingya had almost never shopped since she was either studying or taking care of the children during her spare time. Her clothes were all leftovers from the older children. Clothes that she outgrew would be left for children younger than her.

New clothes were practically a luxury.

Therefore, she held the warm sweater in her hand and stammered. "It seems a little big."

Luo Feng tilted his head and said to the shop assistant. "Help me get a smaller sized one."

The shop assistant walked over slowly and casually glanced at the model. Then, she calmly went to the warehouse at the back to find a smaller one.

She deduced that the pair was probably an older brother in the city who had brought his younger sister from the countryside to buy clothes. She felt that they would not be able to spend much by their average dressing and the girl's careful attitude so she was not very enthusiastic.

"Don't dirty it." The shop assistant was rudely reminded.

Ai Tingya felt even more uncomfortable. She held onto Luo Feng's clothes tightly, not daring to raise her head.

Luo Feng glared at the shop assistant, grabbed the sweater, and put it around Ai Tingya's neck. He held her face and forced her to lift it up. "Go and try. We can afford it no matter how expensive it is!"

He glared at the shop assistant again after saying that.

The shop assistant trembled and felt a chill run down her spine. The teenager in front of her actually had such a cold gaze.

Only then did she remember that she was in business and needed to make money by being amiable. She smiled and said to Ai Tingya, "Young lady, your elder brother has good taste. You're fair and most suitable to wear blue. Go and try it on."

Ai Tingya hugged her sweater and said, "He's not my elder brother."

She entered the fitting room after saying that.

The shop assistant was stunned. If they weren't siblings, then they were definitely a couple.

Young people these days are really interesting. This young man is quite handsome. Why did he bring this country bumpkin with him? What is he plotting? She doesn't look very rich either. She clicked her tongue in her heart and thought to herself.

Squeak!

The door of the fitting room was pushed open, and Ai Tingya emerged with the sweater on.

"Nice!" Luo Feng praised. He walked to her side and combed her long hair that covered her face.

The shop assistant had only planned to say some pleasantries to sell the clothes. She was suddenly stunned when she saw Ai Tingya's appearance.

"So beautiful!" The shop assistant praised from the bottom of her heart.

Ai Tingya's skin was fair and tender. She had big eyes, a small nose, and her thin lips were reddened from her bite. No amount of high-grade lipstick would be able to match that natural redness. She was tall and slender and would look good even if she was wrapped in a fertilizer bag with her head held high.

The shop assistant immediately became enthusiastic. She took out a few clothes and stuffed them into Ai Tingya's hand as if she was sweeping the goods for purchase. "These are the explosively popular clothes from this year. Young lady, you'll definitely look good in them!"

Then, she pushed Ai Tingya back to the fitting room without any explanation.

The passersby were also attracted by the commotion and stopped to watch.

They saw Ai Tingya coming out of the fitting room as she tried on the clothes.

"Wow! It's really beautiful! Boss, give me the same set as the young lady!"

"This one is not bad either. My daughter will look good in it!"

"Where did the boss find this pretty model? She has good taste. She looks good in anything!"

The atmosphere in the shop became lively. Ai Tingya changed her clothes obediently, and the staff happily found the same clothes for other customers. 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝙣𝙤𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝙢

Luo Feng suddenly became an outsider. He stood at the side and watched as the shop assistant ushered people in and went around. He counted the money his mother gave him when he left home since he was bored. It was enough to buy Ai Tingya a few sets of clothes if he also considered the 600 yuan in his card.

Ai Tingya got tired of changing and walked to Luo Feng's side to rest after a while.

Luo Feng pointed at the pile of clothes in the fitting room and said. "Is there anything you like in there? Pick a few."

Ai Tingya touched the pink dress on her body and thought for a moment before saying. "I'll take that blue sweater."

Actually, she liked the clothes the shop assistant gave her very much. They were all nice but the blue sweater was the only one chosen by Luo Feng, and that alone was enough for her.

"Just one? All these clothes look good on you." Luo Feng asked, puzzled.

"This one is enough!" Ai Tingya insisted.

Chapter 11: No Bargaining, Pack It Up At The Original Price!

Luo Feng had no choice with Ai Tingya's insistance. He took the sweater from the bottom of the small mountain and handed it to the shop assistant.

"How much for this?" Luo Feng asked.

The shop assistant happened to send off the last batch of customers. Her smile was brighter than the spring flowers in March. She picked up the blue sweater and looked at the price tag.

Ai Tingya had already peeked at the prices when she was trying on the clothes. 180 yuan was simply robbery!

"Boss, look, we've helped you get so many businesses. Give us a discount." She got the first word in.

Luo Feng wasn't happy when he heard that. He was not only here to buy things for Ai Tingya, he also wanted to confirm a theory— Whether the money in his card would increase with his expenditure.

Previously, he had spent 20 yuan on Ai Tingya, but there was suddenly 200 yuan in his card. If he could obtain 10 times what he paid then obviously the higher amount paid, the better.

He glanced at the shop assistant and realized that she looked a little troubled. He hurriedly said, "I brought enough money. I'll pay the original price."

Ai Tingya knew that Luo Feng was not lacking in money, but she neither wanted to be a spendthrift, nor wanted to owe Luo Feng too much. She was afraid that it would be difficult for her to pay him back in the future.

"We'll take it if it's cheaper. Otherwise, we'll go somewhere else." Ai Tingya insisted.

"No need, let's leave it at that." Luo Feng forcefully joined the bargaining topic and stood on the shop assistant's side.

"Luo Feng, don't cause trouble!"

"The original price!"

The two of them had their own thoughts and started arguing.

The shop assistant looked at the two of them awkwardly. She originally wanted to give the sweater to them directly for free. Ai Tingya had helped her to attract so many customers and her attitude towards her in the beginning was not so good after all.

Using a sweater to develop a relationship with two repeat customers with goods-carrying attributes wasn't a bad trade. 𝐛𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝐦

Who knew that they would argue over it.

"Stop arguing. It's not worth it for such a small matter." The shop assistant tried to smooth things over. "How about this? I'll take a loss and give it to you for free. Come back often in the future."

She packed the sweater after saying that.

Ai Tingya seemed to have picked up a huge bargain. She took the bag eagerly and said sweetly. "Thank you, Auntie. You're so nice!"

However, Luo Feng didn't relent. He grabbed the bag, took out the price tag, glanced at it, and stuffed the clothes back in. He casually took out two banknotes and placed them in the shop assistant's hands.

"I'm going to purchase it at the original price!" Luo Feng said calmly.

Ai Tingya puffed up her cheeks in anger. The shop assistant had already given it away readily, so why did he still have to pay? He was a fool!

The shop assistant stared at the money in her hand in shock. She did not know whether to accept it or not. She said awkwardly, "Student, you…"

"This is the first item I bought for her, it has to be at the original price… Forget it, don't bother about the change." Luo Feng said.

Ai Tingya's face immediately turned red hearing this. Bargain? Free gift? They were all squeezed out of her mind by Luo Feng's words. She buried her head and pursed her lips, the corners of her mouth unconsciously curling up.

Luo Feng was too overbearing! She couldn't refuse at all!

The 200 yuan in the bachelorette shop assistant's hand instantly lost its allure as she looked at the lovey dovey couple in front of her.

She felt that young people were really rich nowadays. He gave her 200 yuan for a sweater that cost 45 yuan… Well, he was rich and was buying passion rather than the item itself.

The shop assistant put the money into her pocket with a clear conscience when she came back to her senses. "Miss, your boyfriend treats you so well!" She gave them a thumbs up.

Ai Tingya blushed and whispered, "He… He's not…"

She did not see the need to explain herself to the stranger, so she grabbed Luo Feng's hand and left the clothing store.

Ai Tingya's hands were very fair, but they were not tender. The orphanage could only provide the bare essentials. Everything else required self-reliance. Her hands had many more cracks compared to high school students who only carried pens and did homework.

Luo Feng looked at Ai Tingya's hand in a daze and didn't notice when she stopped.

Ai Tingya stopped in her tracks and frowned angrily. She wanted to blame Luo Feng for spending money so extravagantly. She didn't know when she would be able to pay him back, but she couldn't get angry when she thought about how Luo Feng's domineeringness was beyond anything she could have done.

Ding ding—

The ringing of the phone interrupted their silence.

[The latest transaction of your savings card ending with 6688: Income: 2,000 yuan.]

Luo Feng smiled in surprise. It was just as he had guessed. He would get 10 times the amount he spent on Ai Tingya transferred into his bank card.

Luo Feng noticed the countless symbols above Ai Tingya's head again standing on the street.

The old man on the street was walking on crutches. The jade thumb ring on his thumb shone with a rich green light under the sunlight. The number above his head was only 10. The young man who jogged past him was wearing an old suit and was in a hurry. The number above his head was 90.

Luo Feng instantly understood when considered alongside Ai Tingya's situation— The numbers above everyone's head represented their potential. No matter how rich an old man was, he couldn't compare to a young man with an uncertain future…

And Ai Tingya had endless potential for development!

Luo Feng's ambition began to grow. In his previous life, Ai Tingya became a female CEO and was already an elite among elites. However, it was far from enough. Luo Feng wanted her to be above everyone else since he was going to do it!

"What's wrong?" Ai Tingya saw Luo Feng's face full of joy and curiously looked at his phone. "Did auntie send you a message?"

Luo Feng covered his phone and said. "No, it's just a rubbish advertisement."

He could not let Ai Tingya see his bank balance. After all, he was only an ordinary student who only had 100 yuan a week for living expenses. The 2,000 yuan balance was enough to cover his family's expenses for two to three months. It was very troublesome to explain.

Ai Tingya did not have the habit of prying into other people's privacy. "Alright… No, you bought me such expensive clothes. How am I going to pay you back in the future!"

She composed herself and finally remembered to interrogate him.

"You have to obey me since you lost the competition. I said I'll buy this, so I'll buy it. You can't have any objections!" Luo Feng joked.

Ai Tingya stomped her feet in anger. "But you can't spend money recklessly!"

"Aren't we classmates? Why are you so concerned about me spending money?" Luo Feng raised his eyebrows and asked the obvious. "Why are you in such a hurry to help me with my household expenses?"

"You!" Ai Tingya was so embarrassed that she could not speak. She covered her face and turned around. "Anyway, you're the one who spent the money for nothing. I can't be bothered!"

Luo Feng looked at her red ears and felt that they were very cute. Ai Tingya was like a little hedgehog that was being teased. She had soft thorns all over her body that were not prickly. She would be fine after a few more words of coaxing.

"Let's buy two more sets of clothes and then grab some food. Do you like hotpot or stir-fry?" Luo Feng laughed.

Ai Tingya was afraid that her small heart would not be able to take it anymore when she heard that he was going to continue spending money. She hurriedly stopped him and said. "Let's not shop anymore. Let's go back."

"Then let's go and eat. There's a shop in front…"

"I want to eat Auntie's cooking."

People always like to compromise. Ai Tingya definitely wouldn't agree if Luo Feng wanted to go home for dinner. However, Ai Tingya would rather go home with Luo Feng if he wanted to go to a restaurant.

"Let's go home then." He grinned triumphantly.

Chapter 12: Closer Relationship, New Rewards Appear!

"Dad, Mom, we're back."

Luo Feng opened the door and saw the leftovers on the dining table. Father and Mother Luo had eaten their fill and were lying on the sofa watching TV.

Mother Luo jumped up from the sofa excitedly when she saw the two of them return.

"Why are you guys back so early? Didn't I tell you to eat something good outside? Xiao Feng, did you bully Tingya by being stingy again?" Mother Luo walked over quickly with a bombardment of questions.

How refreshing, when have I ever been stingy? Luo Feng thought to himself.

He explained, "Mom, don't spread rumors about me. Tingya didn't want to eat outside, so we came back. Have you guys finished eating?"

Mother Luo patted her stomach in satisfaction. "The side dishes Tingya brought are very fresh. We just had to finish them as soon as we could. Let me see the clothes you bought for Tingya."

She really treated Ai Tingya like her own child. She naturally took the bag from Luo Feng's hand and shook out the blue sweater. "This sweater is really nice. The fabric is also very comfortable. I can tell at a glance that Tingya's taste is great. Little Feng likes black and white sweaters which aren't energetic at all." She praised non-stop.

Luo Feng helplessly rolled his eyes at Mother Luo upon hearing this.

Who is your biological child? You side with Ai Tingya at every juncture. You're stepping on me and holding her up. Do you think I'm the b*stard child?

"Yes yes yes, your Tingya has the best taste." Luo Feng rubbed his stomach. "Is there anything to eat? We're hungry."

Mother Luo did not answer. Instead, she bent down and looked at their hands. She realized that there was really only one bag. "I asked you to buy clothes for Tingya, and you only bought this one piece?"

At this moment, Ai Tingya was covering her mouth and laughing. She explained when she heard that Mother Luo had misunderstood the situation.

Mother Luo hugged Ai Tingya's arm and said. "Going shopping with a man is akin to killing him. Go with Auntie the next time round, I guarantee that the clothes you buy will be beautiful and affordable. Auntie can even get a staff price…"

She led Ai Tingya to the sofa and sat her down as she spoke. Ai Tingya was humble and gentle to her elders. She did whatever she was told to do. The two of them hit it off quite well when they chatted about discounts.

Luo Feng protested. "Mom, food…"

Ai Tingya was the first to react as a guest. She had owed the Luo family a lot and wanted to help with some housework.

Mother Luo pressed her back onto the sofa and said, "Tingya, you're tired too. Let Xiao Feng do the cooking."

Then, she winked at Luo Feng, telling him to seize the chance to perform.

Luo Feng's mother's double standards made him even more speechless. He only learned how to cook after graduation. His mother really dared to say anything even though he was a student who only knew how to boil water.

He sauntered into the kitchen. There was still some pork ribs soup left in the pot, and the other ingredients were only enough to make fried rice. However, Ai Tingya was not an outsider, so he decided to make do with it today.

Luo Fengbai placed all the ingredients on the table and picked up the carrot to cut it into evenly-sized particles, followed by smoked meat and onions.

The rhythmic sound of cutting vegetables came from the kitchen, interrupting the two people chatting happily on the sofa.

Father Luo put down the remote control and scratched his face as he asked Mother Luo. "Are you sure that Xiao Feng can cook? Why do I seem to remember that he only knows how to cook instant noodles?"

"Aiya!" Mother Luo slapped her forehead and said. "Don't cut your hand!"

Ai Tingya was also extremely worried. She would have persisted a little harder if she had known earlier. The food she cooked was edible at the very least, even though her culinary skills were not very good.

The three of them immediately ran to the kitchen door. The scene in the kitchen made their mouths drop open unconsciously.

Luo Feng was stirring the rice to make it easier to cook. The four side dishes had different colors and were neatly arranged on the plate. Mother Luo rubbed her eyes in shock. Her son learned how to cook without a teacher?

Then, he set the pot on fire. The sizzling sound of the vegetables— Yellow egg fragments, purple diced onions, orange carrots, and green onions— being stirred. Just looking at them stimulated their appetite.

A handful of smoked meat was added to stir-fry, producing a strong fragrance. Finally, he added rice and stir-fried it twice. The entire room was filled with such a fragrance!

Luo Feng placed two servings of fried rice on the table and said. "Tingya, hurry up and eat. I'll go get you some soup."

Mother Luo came over first. She stared at the fried rice and swallowed her saliva. "My son's fried rice is so fragrant. Give me a taste."

Luo Feng glanced at his mother and proudly moved the plate away. "I cooked it specially for Tingya. Every bite you take means one less bite for her. Next time."

After saying that, he pulled Ai Tingya to sit down and hummed a tune before entering the kitchen.

Mother Luo pursed her lips sadly when she heard that. She actually could not eat a single bite of the first meal her son made. However, on second thought, the person who ate it was Ai Tingya. This child was sensible, capable, and was someone to dote on.

She didn't seem so angry anymore.

"Tingya, hurry up and eat. Auntie and Uncle won't disturb you anymore." Mother Luo wiped the corners of her mouth and sat back on the sofa reluctantly.

Ai Tingya was so touched that she could not speak. Her hand that was holding the spoon hung in the air and she did not eat it for a long time.

Her eyes burned as Luo Feng's words echoed in her ears. This was the first time someone specially cooked for her. She had only eaten in the cafeterias in school and in the orphanage ever since she could remember.

No one had ever cooked specially for her, not even a simple fried rice.

"Is it good?" Luo Feng put down the soup and sat beside Ai Ting Ya. 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗ｏ𝚟𝚎𝚕.ｏｒｇ

"Delicious." Ai Ting Ya lowered her head, scooped up a big spoonful and stuffed it into her mouth. She didn't want Luo Feng to see her wet eyes.

Luo Feng supported his face as he watched Ai Tingya eat happily. His heart filled with happiness. He didn't know if the food in the orphanage was too lousy or if Ai Tingya couldn't bear to eat. This beautiful girl was raised like a little chick.

Right at this time, Luo Feng heard the sound of tin foil in his bag.

He had this feeling before!

He turned his back towards Ai Tingya who was eating happily and took out the box. There was a simple name— Physical Body Enhancement Pill!

Given the previous experience, Luo Feng didn't hesitate to take out the pill and mix it into the rice, swallowing it in one gulp.

He felt a warm current spreading from his abdomen to his limbs immediately. It washed over every cell like a gentle wave. The fatigue of staying up late dissipated, and his breathing became much smoother.

"Phew…" Luo Feng let out a breath of relief. His eyes were like torches, and he was in high spirits!

Mother Luo, who was secretly observing, nudged Father Luo. "Look at our son. Why did he suddenly become so handsome?"

"Isn't it just two bowls of fried rice? Do you have to treat him like that? Why didn't you say that I'm handsome when I was serving you?" Father Luo glanced at her in disdain and continued to immerse himself in the television.

The more Mother Luo looked at him, the more she felt that something was wrong. It was as if Luo Feng's face was suddenly covered with a layer of filter.

After thinking for a moment, Mother Luo concluded that it must be the nourishment from love!

She felt that all the explanations made sense at this thought. All the credit belonged to Ai Tingya! The more she looked at her, the more she liked this girl!

Chapter 13: You Must Be Poisoned by Love!

From that day onwards, Ai Tingya would return to Luo Feng's house to tutor him every Saturday.

Ai Tingya had specially created a tuition plan. Not only did they not miss the new third-year classes, they also revised the knowledge points of their first and second year. The knowledge points were divided into several modules in detail. They could memorize a few words and a few equations every week.

However, Ai Tingya's tuition plan quickly became invalid. The reason was that Luo Feng's learning ability was too good!

He remembered them even better than his home address after listening to a new class for half an hour and sleeping for 10 minutes. He could immediately recall his past knowledge and never forget it again as long as Ai Tingya gave him a hint.

This caused Ai Ting Ya to repeatedly jump around in admiration and frustration. She was happy for Luo Feng, but at the same time, she felt like she was being outdone. As a result, she became even stricter with herself. She would open her book and start studying after helping out at the orphanage everyday.

The routine lasted until the end of the semester.

The school only prepared a preliminary examination for the third-year students so that they knew how they were doing. They were afraid of increasing the psychological pressure on the students, so they did not publicize the rankings.

The winter break began with an indifferent atmosphere.

Ai Tingya sat by the bed unmoving that night and read seriously under the weak light of the night lamp. She did not relax at all even though it was the holiday.

A girl with short hair that reached her ears, who was about the same age as Ai Tingya, walked in and placed a coat on Ai Tingya's lap.

"Xiao Ya, go to the study room to read. The lights there are brighter." The girl said with concern.

Ai Tingya shook her head and said. "It's too wasteful. This place is good enough. Xiao Fei, you sleep first. I'll read two more pages."

The girl called Xiao Fei was Ai Tingya's best friend in the orphanage.

She sat beside Ai Tingya and rested her face on her hands. She felt that something was wrong with Ai Tingya recently. She would always disappear for a day on the weekends. Occasionally, she would see someone send her back on a bicycle, but it was parked a few hundred meters away, so it was difficult to see the person's face clearly.

Xiao Fei was worried that Ai Tingya would be deceived.

"Xiao Ya, you're always staying up late. You'll get pimples on your face." She said in an innocent tone.

"Really?" Ai Tingya put down her book and held her face, as if an acne would pop out in the next second.

Xiao Fei narrowed her eyes and revealed a gossipy smile. "You've never cared about these things in the past. Why are you suddenly concerned about your appearance? Tell me! Do you have someone you like?" 𝓫𝓮𝒹𝓷ℴ𝓿ℯ𝓵.𝓬ℴ𝓶

The orphanage only ensured the children's food and shelter. Appearance was an extravagance. Therefore, Ai Tingya had always used her hair to cover her face. This way, she could save a lot of trouble and not be distracted easily.

Xiao Fei had read romance novels for many years and understood what it meant for a woman to dress up for her lover. Moreover, Ai Tingya had indeed gained a lot of clothes and accessories recently. It was really curious.

"Don't talk nonsense. I don't have anyone I like!" Ai Tingya couldn't control her eyes darting around. Guilt was written all over her face.

"And yet your face is as red as a monkey's butt!" Xiao Fei became even more excited. "Tell me, is it the person who sends you back every week?"

"Huh? You all saw it?" Ai Tingya said shyly.

She was afraid that the children in the orphanage would see this and create a bad image of puppy love, so she only let Luo Feng send her to the corner of the street every week while she walked back.

Xiao Fei squeezed Ai Tingya affectionately and rubbed against her shoulder. "Who is it? Is it the person who gave you the sweater? When will you bring him back for us to meet?"

"Aiya, no it's not him!" Ai Tingya retorted. "I don't like him. I just… I just think about him often…"

"Xiao Ya, you've gone crazy from studying. This is love!" Xiao Fei danced with joy. "You're happy just thinking about him, right? Your heart feels warm, and you can't control it. You always want to be with him, isn't it? This is love! You've fallen in love!"

Ai Tingya listened to Xiao Fei's professional analysis and reflected on how she had been paying attention to Luo Feng recently. They were deskmates, but Luo Feng didn't want to leave his seat even 10 minutes after class ended. Luo Feng would also be sad if he was called away by other students.

"No. I'm not." Ai Tingya insisted.

She had nothing now, it was too embarrassing to admit that she liked Luo Feng.

Xiao Fei tried another method to probe, seeing that she was unwilling to admit it. "Alright then. Perhaps someone has been closer to you recently. Bring him here. I'll help you take a look at his character so that you won't be deceived by him without knowing anything about it."

"There's no need…"

"What do you mean no need! It's almost New Year's Eve. We have a gala here, so there's a reason for you to bring him here!"

Xiao Fei's words reminded Ai Tingya.

She had received too much help from Luo Feng, from her studies to her daily life. So much so that she had no way to repay him. It was indeed too much to keep rejecting him, so she decided to treat him to a meal.

"Alright then, don't spout nonsense when the time comes!" Ai Tingya warned in advance.

"Who do you think I am? Don't worry!" Xiao Fei secretly rejoiced, already looking forward to it.

On reunion days like New Year's Eve, the orphanage would hold an artistic performance to use the joyous atmosphere to dilute the misery of being homeless. There was no limit to the content of the singing and recital. Ai Tingya would go up and dance once a year as the finale.

Ai Tingya went to look for Luo Feng as usual the next morning.

Mother Luo knew that she was coming and had already prepared drinks and snacks. She seemed to have set a goal for herself to feed Ai Tingya well, so the first thing she did every time she arrived was not to study but eat something.

Ai Tingya had been here for a semester and was already used to Mother Luo's enthusiasm.

Ai Tingya was distracted while eating the snacks. Her eyes unconsciously moved towards Luo Feng's body.

"What's the matter?" Luo Feng noticed Ai Tingya's gaze and asked.

Ai Tingya braced herself, seeing that she could not avoid it, and said, "We have a party on New Year's Eve. We want to invite you… Auntie and Uncle to take a look. Do you have time?"

She asked carefully. Mother Luo smiled brightly and answered quickly. "Your uncle and I have something on. We'll let Little Feng go on our behalf!"

It was still too early for their parents to meet, so she let Xiao Feng meet them first.

Mother Luo thought about it and kept winking at Luo Feng to get him to agree.

Luo Feng speechlessly glanced at his mother. Your intentions are written all over your face. Besides, I didn't say I wouldn't go.

"Of course I have time." Luo Feng smiled.

His various indicators were changing in the best direction, including his looks after taking the pill to improve his physical fitness. It was like a spring breeze blew past when he smiled.

More importantly, Luo Feng discovered that additional tools would appear every time his relationship with Ai Tingya got closer! Of course, he had to seize every opportunity to get along with Ai Tingya!

"Okay!" Ai Tingya's uneasy heart calmed down and said gently. "It's a deal then!"

Chapter 14: You're Xiao Ya's Boyfriend? You're Quite Handsome!

On New Year's Eve.

Mother Luo had already chased Luo Feng out of the house: "Don't make Ting Ya wait anymore, hurry up and leave!"

She was like a stepmother in a TV drama. She would ask her son to go somewhere else on her big day. If not for the fact that he had the birth certificate at home, Luo Feng really felt like he was picked up from the trash can.

Ai Tingya, who was waiting at the door, could not help but cover her mouth and laugh. She had completely gotten used to Mother Luo's favoritism after spending a few months together.

"Let's go." Luo Feng said angrily. "You're not in a hurry right? Accompany me to shop for something."

Ai Tingya nodded and followed beside Luo Feng.

The two of them walked along the street in the direction of the orphanage. Most of the shops on the street were still open even though it was already New Year's Eve. Luo Feng looked around as he walked, searching for what he wanted.

"Right, will you perform at the gala?" Luo Feng suddenly asked.

"I… I will dance…" Ai Tingya shrank her head and whispered with a red face.

Luo Feng found opportunities to buy all kinds of things for Ai Tingya during the semester of tutoring. He didn't leave out any clothes or skincare products, including a card at the beauty salon.

The current Ai Tingya was no longer covered in dirt.

"You should prepare some clothes if you are going to dance, right? Do you have any? Let's go and buy one now." Luo Feng seized every opportunity to spend on Ai Tingya. He already had a little over 20,000 yuan in his card after his tireless efforts. 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙤𝙧𝒈

He was already standing at the top of the pyramid in this era where he could do whatever he wanted.

Ai Tingya frowned and replied. "There's no need. I've already prepared it. When can you change your habit of spending money? It's not easy for Uncle and Auntie to earn money!"

After a few months of getting used to it, Ai Tingya was no longer as fearful as she was in the beginning. Instead, she could turn around and lecture Luo Feng.

Luo Feng looked at her and laughed. "Alright, I'll listen to you, let's buy some food and leave."

The two of them walked into a nearby supermarket. Luo Feng picked out many of the children's favorite biscuits and candies. They only left the supermarket satisfied after buying so much that they could no longer carry anymore.

The old metal door of the orphanage was wrapped in ribbons. A few aunties were pasting spring festival couplets on it. They didn't greet Luo Feng and just smiled when they saw him.

Ai Tingya called out to them one by one, then led Luo Feng inside.

This orphanage had been established for 10 years. The white paint on the outer walls had fallen off, revealing the gray walls inside. There were traces of rain on the roof, and the entire house seemed to be covered in a layer of smog.

Fortunately, the children's laughter added some color to the orphanage's bleak atmosphere.

Luo Feng had just entered the gate when he saw a girl with a short bob standing under the eaves with her arms crossed. Her brows were tightly furrowed as she looked at him from top to bottom. Her little mouth was pouting in dissatisfaction.

More than ten children of different ages poked their heads out like the tail feathers of a peacock behind her.

The girl with a short bob walked towards Luo Feng with hostility. "You're the person our Xiao Ya misses?"

Ai Tingya's face turned red. She quickly covered the girl's mouth. "Xiao Fei! Don't talk nonsense!"

Luo Feng chuckled. "My name is Luo Feng, hello."

Xiao Fei broke free from Ai Tingya's hand and said. "We're helping you to judge him, little ones! Bring Big Sister Xiao Ya away!"

The children left the group and held Ai Tingya's hand as they walked into the house after saying that. Ai Tingya looked back at Luo Feng worriedly. The other children seemed to have rehearsed this as they lined up in a row, blocking their line of sight.

Xiao Fei was like a feudal elder who strongly opposed her daughter being with a poor scholar, grounding her just because of a disagreement.

"How long have you known Xiao Ya?" Xiao Fei asked with a crooked mouth.

"Tell me!"

"Did you bully our Big Sister Xiao Ya?!"

"We're not to be trifled with!"

The children acting as fences chimed in, creating a huge commotion.

Luo Feng looked in the direction Ai Tingya left and asked: "Where did Tingya go?"

"Shut up! Who said you can call Tingya by her name? We haven't admitted you into our midst yet!" Xiao Fei scolded loudly.

Luo Feng had no intention of fooling around with them. He waved the snacks in his hand and said, "This is a gift for you guys. Can you let me in to find Tingya?"

The corners of Xiao Fei's mouth curled up as she said confidently. "Do you think you can bribe us with this little favor? Let me tell you, we're doing this for Xiao Ya's happiness…"

The children standing at the back swarmed up and surrounded Luo Feng, before he could finish speaking. "Big Brother, you're such a nice person!"

"Big Sister Xiao Ya is in the kitchen. Go find her quickly."

"We'll help you stop Big Sister Xiao Fei. She's very fierce. Leave quickly!"

Luo Feng felt his hand lighten in the blink of an eye. He then bypassed the stunned Xiao Fei and headed straight for the kitchen. He heard another angry shout behind him just as he reached the roof.

"Leave some for me!"

The bribery was successful!

Luo Feng found Ai Tingya in the kitchen with a sly smile.

"Xiao Fei didn't make things difficult for you, right?"

Ai Tingya was washing the pot when Luo Feng entered. She quickly wiped her hands and found a chair for him to sit on.

"We're all friendly and honest people, so they let me in without saying much." Luo Feng sat down and stared at Ai Tingya who was wearing an apron.

"It's rare for them to have snacks at all. Could it be that you've thought about it before coming?"

Ai Tingya smiled. The phone in Luo Feng's pocket would start vibrating as long as she was happy.

Luo Feng was very familiar with this commotion. The money he used to buy snacks would have been returned to his bank account in multiples. It would be recognized as an investment in Ai Tingya as long as he followed Ai Tingya's wishes.

"When does the party start?" Luo Feng asked.

"Let's eat first. The people from the television station will only come at seven, and then we'll start." Ai Tingya said.

Luo Feng looked at the dishes prepared on the stove. The sumptuous chicken, duck, and fish were as good as those in the restaurants outside. Most likely, they were sponsored by someone, so it was reasonable for them to film some promotional videos.

"Wouldn't your dance be seen by a lot of people then? What if a talent scout signed you on?" Luo Feng joked.

Ai Tingya was much more beautiful than those vases in the future even though he did not know if Ai Tingya was good at dancing. She would definitely be the face of an entertainment company if she were to join.

Ai Tingya also smiled. "Then I'll sign the contract. I happen to want to earn money as soon as possible."

"Why are you thinking about earning money again? Didn't I tell you to study hard?"

An old voice interrupted the two of them right at this moment. Luo Feng turned around and saw a middle-aged woman with white hair and glasses walking in with her hands behind her back.

The wrinkles on the woman's face seemed to be carved by a knife as she stared at Ai Tingya helplessly.

"Dean Du." Ai Tingya smiled and shook the water in her hand in order to help her in. "I was just joking with my classmate. It's not like I don't study."

Dean Du's legs weren't good, so she got onto the stool slowly and sat opposite Luo Feng. She looked at Luo Feng and smiled: "It's so rare to see Xiao Ya bring her classmates back, are you Xiao Ya's boyfriend? You're so handsome"

Chapter 15: The Celebrity Arrives, The Awkward Party Begins!

"You're Xiao Ya's boyfriend? You're so handsome." Dean Du smiled and expressed a family-like approval.

Ai Tingya stomped her feet in embarrassment. "Dean! What are you talking about! We're just ordinary classmates!"

It seemed that everyone who was close to Ai Tingya liked to tease her. Dean Du laughed when she saw this. "What's there to be shy about? My family was already helping me arrange my marriage when I was your age."

"Aiya, I'm not talking to you anymore!" Ai Tingya snorted and went to help again with a red face.

Luo Feng watched her every move and felt that Ai Tingya's shy appearance was exceptionally cute. He wondered how beautiful she would look when she danced.

Dean Du was chatting with Luo Feng while Ai Tingya was busy preparing dinner. She was very friendly and talkative, without the airs of an elder.

Luo Feng and Dean Du chatted happily, and before he knew it, it was time to eat.

There were not many children in the orphanage. They barely managed to fill up two tables together with the adults who took care of the children.

However, the atmosphere was still very lively. It was rare for the children to see so many dishes all year round. They were so happy that they almost flew to the table. Their eyes were shining, but they did not snatch the food.

Dean Du's taught them their table manners. The children were very modest.

"Luo Feng, have this." Ai Tingya took the initiative to pick up a chicken drumstick and placed it in Luo Feng's bowl.

Luo Feng couldn't help but be a bit surprised. He thought that given Ai Tingya's personality, she would definitely give something as good as a chicken drumstick to the little ones below, yet the first thing she picked up was given to him.

Suddenly!

He felt a resentful gaze from the sidelines!

Xiao Fei bit her chopsticks and stared at Luo Feng's drumstick, feeling wronged. She complained softly, "Xiao Ya would always give it to me in the past! Stupid Luo Feng, bad Luo Feng!"

Dean Du chuckled and said to Luo Feng, "In the past, whenever there was delicious food on the table, everyone tacitly agreed to leave them for the person who needed it the most. Xiao Ya consumed a lot of energy in her third year of high school, so it would be given to her. She'll then pass it to Xiao Fei. However, these are only distributed after the meal."

So that was how it was. Ai Tingya gave everything she liked to him. No wonder Xiao Fei was hostile towards him.

Luo Feng felt his heart warm. He smiled and took a bite of the drumstick. "It's delicious. Thank you, Tingya."

"As long as you like it!" Ai Tingya smiled blissfully.

Dean Du also revealed a loving smile, as if her cabbage had found a warm new nest seeing the two of them having fun.

Only Xiao Fei bared her teeth in hatred and said with dissatisfaction. "Stupid Luo Feng, you've taken all of Xiao Ya's love! Xiao Ya, you're not allowed to look at him and smile. I haven't agreed yet as a member of your family!"

They laughed out loud when everyone heard this. The atmosphere immediately became lively.

Two vans drove in from the courtyard while they were eating. Four or five people jumped down from the vans and set up sound racks and various tools.

Dean Du called out, "Everyone, finish your food quickly. The gala is about to begin."

The children obediently lowered their heads and ate heartily, as if they were rushing for a mission. No one chatted or laughed.

Ai Tingya leaned close to Luo Feng's ear. "There's a celebrity coming. They said that they would donate some of the furniture at home if we cooperate with them for charity work."

Most of the funding received by the orphanage was used to feed and clothe the children. Tables, chairs, stools, broken legs, and nails had been repaired for several years. The beds they slept on were rusty, the dim light bulbs and wiring were old.

The cost of renovating any one of them was not a small sum for the orphanage.

Dean Du really needed the money even though cooperating with celebrities was disgusting.

Luo Feng looked out the window at the busy workers and nodded without saying anything.

The stage was set up after a while. The children put down their bowls and chopsticks and gathered in the courtyard. Luo Feng and Ai Tingya followed them.

A nanny van slowly drove over after standing in the freezing weather for 15 minutes. A man wearing sunglasses and a black down jacket alighted from it. He had a fashionable handsome man's long hair and a necklace that almost reached his navel.

Luo Feng couldn't find anyone like him in his memory of the future. Maybe he was only famous for a few years.

"Welcome, welcome." Dean Du welcomed him warmly.

The starlet grinned, revealing a row of bright teeth. He held Dean Du's hands and said, "Dean, you've waited for a long time! We're here to visit the children!"

Luo Feng raised his eyebrows, thinking that this little celebrity dressed up so flamboyantly and seemed like a nice person.

In the next second, someone in the nanny van shouted. "Cut!"

The starlet's smile instantly collapsed. He retracted his hand and said, "How was the scene just now?"

"Perfect, perfect!" The cameraman carrying the camera jumped out of the car and gave him a thumbs up. "Qiu Liang and the Dean performed very well! There were alot of emotions put into it!"

"Then let's start quickly! It's so cold!" The little celebrity, Qiu Liang, complained and sat back in the car.

Dean Du's welcoming hand was left hanging awkwardly in the cold wind.

The little-known celebrity was obviously here to put on a show!

Luo Feng was furious and wanted to step forward to argue.

Ai Tingya quickly stopped him and advised upon seeing this. "Don't go! The new furniture still depends on him!"

Luo Feng said angrily. "Even I can help change new furniture given this amount of things!"

Renovating an orphanage wouldn't be a problem with the money in his card, so why would they need a collaboration show? Also, Dean Du is a respectable person, so Luo Feng can't bear to see her suffer!

Wasn't a Dean who raised a child without a family more noble than a non-mainstream little-known celebrity?

"Don't talk nonsense!" Ai Tingya advised. "The director knew that this would happen, so she willingly cooperated!"

Her words reminded Luo Feng that a little impatience would spoil great plans.

Indeed, there were so many orphanages in the world. Little-known celebrities donating things could also help increase their popularity and attract more social donations. For the current Dean Du, this was the only and best way.

Luo Feng gradually relaxed and accepted Ai Tingya's explanation.

At this moment, Dean Du had already sorted out her emotions. She still had a loving smile on her face as she clapped her hands and said, "Children, get ready. It's your turn to perform!"

"Okay!" The children said in unison and stood on the stage like ducklings.

Luo Feng asked curiously: "What's the first program?"

"The celebrity's solo. But the kids are going to be the backdrop to look good." 𝗯𝗲𝐝𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝗹．𝐨𝗿𝗴

Ai Tingya did not like Qiu Liang's behavior either, but she had no choice. She did not have the ability to support the orphanage yet, so she could only rely on these shows. She stared at the stage unwillingly and sighed helplessly.

Qiu Liang's nanny van did not move for a long time even though the children were in position and the cameras were set up.

Then, a fatty jumped down from the front passenger seat of the minivan and walked around to Qiu Liang's side. He respectfully opened the car door and said a few words to the car with a smile.

Only then did Qiu Liang slowly walk down and take off the sunglasses on his nose bridge. "Kids, you're lucky to be on the same stage as me. Don't cause any trouble for me!"

Chapter 16: You Have to Give Us More Silencing Fees With This Performance Attitude!

The music started!

"I come from chance, like a speck of dust. Who sees my vulnerability?"

"Where did I come from? Where is my love? Who will call on me in the next moment…"

The children closed their eyes and sang "Gratitude Heart" in their best state on the stage. Everyone who heard it felt sad coupled with the neat sign language. They must have rehearsed for a long time.

In the past few years, "Gratitude Heart" and sign language dance were the standard at every public event. Luo Feng used to find it boring, but he finally learned to appreciate it after coming into contact with Ai Tingya's life.

He was immersed in the song and silently applauded the children.

The beautiful singing stopped abruptly when it was Qiu Liang's turn to sing.

The shining star held the microphone. His beautiful face had a gentle smile, and one could see his white molars when he opened his mouth, but no sound could be heard.

Luo Feng thought that the equipment was malfunctioning, so he looked around and prepared to do something. Then he heard the children's simple singing.

Ads by Pubfuture

This repeated over and over again. Every time it was Qiu Liang's turn to sing, he would only open his mouth and not make a sound. The children who acted as the background had to pretend to be very intoxicated. Their bodies were like small waves, swaying left and right with the melody.

"You came here to lip-sync?" Luo Feng said unhappily.

The 2000s era was still not yet the era where pretty young hunks and flower vases were in power. One could only rely on strength if one wanted to carve out a path in the music industry where immortals fought. Qiu Liang naturally had some singing skills since he was a little famous.

Ai Tingya pursed her lips and said nothing.

"There's nothing we can do." An unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded beside him. "He said that he wants to nourish his voice and wants us to record his singing later."

Luo Feng turned his head and saw that the fatty who jumped out of the van was standing next to him. The meat on his face jiggled as he revealed an apologetic smile.

"Why are you telling us this?" Luo Feng was confused.

He looked up and realized that the number above the fatty's head was actually 1,000! It was much higher than normal people! This proved that this person had a lot of potential for development in the future. Luo Feng suddenly became interested in him.

The fatty smiled sadly. "Little friend, you're so straightforward. There's no need for me to beat around the bush with you. Pretend that you didn't see this. We'll donate more things. How about that?"

He looked at Luo Feng's clothes and knew that he wasn't a child from the orphanage. The other children would cooperate for donations, but this outsider needs to be taken care of.

Luo Feng feigned innocence and asked: "Uncle Fatty is really generous, but how much more do you mean when you said you will donate more?"

He used to be a businessman, someone who fought his way to fame and fortune. This person would be able to get away with it if he doesn't give a specific number. Luo Feng has to get a clear understanding even if it was for free.

"Hahaha, little boy, you're really interesting." The fatty stretched out two fingers and said, "How about adding another 20 sets of tables and chairs?" 𝗯𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝘃𝗲𝐥．𝗰𝗼𝐦

Ai Tingya's eyes lit up.

One of their rooms had the signboard of a library but it was empty. There were a few overturned books on the crooked bookshelves. The only two tables were ground to a pulp. They would have to sit on the ground to read if there were more people.

20 new sets of tables and chairs would be like a new library to them.

Luo Feng saw Ai Tingya's "satisfied" expression on her face and decided not to bargain with Fatty.

"Little classmate, you're quite smart," The fatty praised. He felt that children these days were not easy to fool.

He pinched his chin and carefully examined Luo Feng's side profile. His eyes immediately lit up!

The boy in front of him was tall and straight like a pine tree. The corner of his chin was as sharp as a knife. His handsome face was still young, but there was a mature and steady aura between his eyebrows. His complicated temperament was blended nicely and he was born with a photogenic face!

The fatty took out a business card and handed it to Luo Feng as if he had found a treasure. "Student, my name is Yang Tianzhen. I'm the manager of One Heart Entertainment. You have the potential to be a celebrity. Do you want to enter the entertainment industry?"

"Not interested." Luo Feng said calmly.

His goal was the sea of stars, and the entertainment industry was a little cramped.

Yang Tianzhen persisted and forcefully stuffed the business card into Luo Feng's pocket. "There's no rush to answer. You can give me an answer after you've thought about it."

He even gave Luo Feng two admiring winks after saying that.

At this moment, the intermittent singing on the stage finally stopped. Qiu Liang walked down with his shiny black leather shoes. His smug look was as if he had completed his fateful performance.

Yang Tianzhen sighed tiredly and squeezed out a smile to welcome him. "Thank you for your hard work. Today's work will be over as long as you show your face after the party!"

"We still have to wait until it's over?" Qiu Liang rolled his eyes and got into the nanny van angrily. Yang Tianzhen followed hurriedly with a smile and kept talking nicely.

Ai Tingya stared at this scene in a daze and said enviously, "It's so good to be coaxed at work…"

She had always treated being sensible as her motto. Most of the time, she had to suffer to help others. She got the rare pampering when she met Luo Feng. Yang Tianzhen still welcomed Qiu Liang with a smile even though he was being so willful. She couldn't understand this strange way of getting along, but she was still very envious.

"You can be it if you like it!" Luo Feng held the business card between his fingers. He would also support Ai Tingya if she chose to enter the entertainment industry.

Ai Tingya laughed. "I'm not as good-looking as you. Forget it. I'm going to change."

Luo Feng stared at her fleeing figure and frowned helplessly. It seemed like his transformation of Ai Tingya wasn't thorough enough. Even though her appearance had changed a lot, it would still take a long time for her to abandon her inferiority complex and sensitivity.

"What are you still standing there for?" Xiao Fei pushed Luo Feng, "Xiao Ya is going to dance. You won't have a good spot if you don't leave now."

Luo Feng followed the direction she ran in and saw everyone from the orphanage squatting in front of the stage, all of them looking at her with anticipation like fangirls.

"Does Tingya dance well?" Luo Feng had never heard Ai Tingya mention it before.

He followed Xiao Fei to Dean Du's side.

Dean Du was still amiable. She with a faint smile on her lips. "Xiao Ya is very talented in dancing. In the past, she was even fancied by a dance master, but she said that she couldn't bear to part with us, so she gave up on it."

Dean Du's voice was filled with regret speaking of this. Ai Tingya was sensible and obedient. She had already started to think from the Dean's perspective at the age when other children were still carefree. She could not bear to see the Dean worry about many things in the orphanage alone.

She would rather stay and live a poor life, bearing the pain and give up her bright future.

"So that's how it is" Luo Feng felt his heart empty. No wonder she looked so envious when she saw Qiu Liang just now. She was once very close to such a life.

"Look! Xiao Ya is on the stage!"

Xiao Fei's exclamation pulled Luo Feng back to reality. Ai Tingya was standing on the stage dressed in green…

Chapter 17: You Become a Celebrity And I'll Be Your Background!

Ai Tingya wore a green ancient dress and stood like a green bamboo pavilion in the forest.

Melodious and soothing music sounded. Ai Tingya's figure was as ethereal as a shadow. She swayed with the music, as if she was flying or leaning sideways.

The courtyard became quiet. The staff, who had been chatting, stopped talking. They were attracted by the girl's beautiful dance on the stage. The cigarette in their mouths almost burned their lips but they had yet to feel it.

Yang Tianzhen got out of the car as if his soul had been hooked. Qiu Liang's complaints were forgotten. He took out another business card after admiring the scene for a moment.

Luo Feng stared fixedly at Ai Tingya. His entire body was deeply immersed in her dance, and every beat struck his heart. Ai Tingya's emotions were fully conveyed even though her movements couldn't compare to someone who had training.

Her eyes furrowed, and her every move was filled with sorrow.

Luo Feng could clearly hear the weak breathing sounds around him. They were all amazed by Ai Tingya's dance regardless of whether they had seen it before or not.

There was thunderous applause at the scene after the dance. The cameraman grabbed the tail of the beautiful dance and recorded the enthusiastic reaction of the audience after he finally reacted. The prolonged applause alarmed the disdainful Qiu Liang in the car.

He slowly got out of the car and saw Yang Tianzhen pushing aside the layers of audience and rushed to the front like a rolling ball, clumsily climbing onto the stage.

He raised the business card like a flower and bowed 90 degrees. "Student, you're very talented in dancing. Come into the entertainment industry with me! I promise to find the most professional teacher for you. You'll definitely be successful!"

If Luo Feng was like a flower on a high mountain, then Ai Tingya was like a gem in a crevice. Yang Tianzhen felt like his luck had changed and he had found two potential talents at the same time.

He had been in the industry for a few years and was quite experienced. He had made Qiu Liang, a little-known celebrity, a little famous. He did not expect Qiu Liang to be a shallow person and had started to be arrogant before he became an A-lister. He would not have wanted to serve Qiu Liang anymore if not for the fact that he had not found a more suitable person.

Qiu Liang was so arrogant just because he had a good Tianzhen could not take it anymore!

Ai Tingya was flattered and didn't know what to do. She looked at Luo Feng for help, hoping that he would make a decision for her.

Luo Feng walked onto the stage and stood in front of Ai Tingya: "Uncle Fatty, you've affected the progress of the party."

Yang Tianzhen scratched his chubby face in shame and said, "I'm sorry, I was too excited and didn't see clearly just now. It turns out that you're beautiful and can dance well. With your qualifications, you'll definitely be so popular that you can make waves in the industry!"

Ai Tingya nervously grabbed the corner of Luo Feng's shirt and lowered her head in silence.

Luo Feng used his hand to block Yang Tian Zhen's business card and said. "At least let her change first."

He took off his coat and draped it over Ai Tingya's shoulders. He then helped her leave the stage. Yang Tianzhen was very polite to his collaborators. He obediently made way and walked to the side of the stage to wait patiently.

Ai Tingya's body felt a little warmer when the two of them returned to the room. She grabbed Luo Feng's arm excitedly and said, "Did you hear that? He said I'm a good dancer!"

"It's indeed very good." Luo Feng praised from the bottom of his heart. "Don't you want to be a celebrity?"

Ai Tingya rolled her eyes and said, "I don't want to. Even though I earn a lot of money being a celebrity can and let everyone live a good life, the peak period of a celebrity is too short. Life is very long. We can't just look at the short 20 year span. Besides, do you know? The entertainment industry is a fame and fortune fair. If I don't find a backer, I'll definitely be bullied… Besides, who knows if what he said is true?"

"I can promise you that he will definitely keep his promise." Luo Feng said sincerely.

Even though Yang Tianzhen was trying hard to please a small celebrity now, he would definitely be one of the best managers in the future with his potential. A manager with methods and foresight would definitely make everyone famous.

It was even more convincing since he picked Ai Tingya.

"How do you know?" Ai Tingya was puzzled.

"I just know." Luo Feng smiled mysteriously and pulled Ai Tingya, "Tingya, I'll tell you all the good and bad things. You can choose your future path, but I hope you understand that I'll support you no matter what your choice is!"

Luo Feng's heart ached after hearing Dean Du talk about Ai Tingya's dance experience. Luo Feng hopes that Ai Tingya won't have any regrets just because she's sensible now that there's another chance.

Moreover, he would become her backer if Ai Tingya needed it!

"I don't want to!" Ai Tingya shook her head firmly. "Even though I like to dance, I hope that my future will be more than dancing!"

As expected of the girl he had chosen!

Luo Feng pinched Ai Tingya's nose and pampered her. "Then what do you hope to do in the future? Become a female CEO?"

Ai Tingya, who was wearing a professional suit and high heels in his previous life, also looked flirtatious.

"The future is too far away. I'm more interested in the present." Ai Tingya raised her eyebrows proudly. "As for the present… I'm not telling you!"

What she didn't say was that she hoped to welcome the future with Luo Feng.

"Alright, smart and weird girl." Luo Feng shrugged, thinking to himself. I know it even if you don't tell me.

Ai Tingya giggled as she tugged at Luo Feng's sleeve and said coquettishly. "Tell me honestly, how did I dance just now? Did I look good?"

"Even prettier than a fairy," replied Luo Feng. "You invited me to watch a good dance, I'll give you a gift in return."

Ai Tingya instinctively felt that Luo Feng was going to start spending money again upon hearing that he wanted to give her a gift. She quickly let it go and pretended that she didn't hear him. This way, she could prevent Luo Feng from buying things for her.

Luo Feng was amused by her. He scanned his surroundings and realized that he didn't have a suitable instrument. "There is nothing I can use for the melody so I'll sing a cappella for you."

He sat down against Ai Tingya and cleared his throat.

"My heart is empty. The sky is huge and the clouds are heavy. I'm lonely, but I can't chase them away."

"Carrying her name, her moods while moving forward. How long has it been?"

"There is only one treasure in a person's heart. After a long time, she will become my tears…"

The corners of Ai Tingya's tiny mouth gradually fell, and her eyes shone with tears.

"The girl told me that I protected her dreams. She said that there weren't many people who treated her like that in this world."

"She gradually forgot about me, but she didn't know that I, who was hurt all over, had never loved anyone else again."

Luo Feng's voice was low, as if he was telling his deepest secrets.

It was silent outside the window, as if the only sound in the world was the two of them looking at each other and the sad song.

"The girl told me that I was a thief, stealing her memories and stuffing them into my head."

"I don't need freedom. I just want to carry her dream and walk forward step by step. The forever she has given me isn't heavy."

The song gradually died down, and Ai Tingya's face was already covered in tears.

She had the illusion that Luo Feng had seen through her. The person in front of her understood her pain and weakness. He didn't feel any sympathy or pity for her, but he truly felt for her.

Ai Tingya timidly wondered if she could take this song as a promise?

Chapter 18: The Song Is Not For Sale, I'll Show You The Way

Their eyes met in the simple changing room.

Ai Tingya gently leaned on Luo Feng's shoulder. Her soft hair scattered around Luo Feng's body, and the mint-flavored shampoo entered Luo Feng's nose.

"Do you like it?" Luo Feng asked softly.

Ai Tingya nodded. She was extremely touched. No one had ever sung for her before. Luo Feng had really given her too much, so much that she didn't know how to repay him.

"That's good," Luo Feng laughed. Ai Tingya was finally happy after he practiced for a long time!

Bang!

The door of the changing room, which had been left ajar, suddenly burst open. The wooden door bounced back, blocked by a pile of soft flesh.

Yang Tianzhen stood at the door with tears streaming down his face. Behind him was the shocked little-known celebrity, and behind them were Dean Du and Xiao Fei, who were gratified.

It turned out that they did not continue with the gala. Instead, they hid at the door and eavesdropped. Even though there wasn't any gentle confession, they received a nice song.

Yang Tianzhen wanted to hug Luo Feng's leg and drag him into the van. He tried his best to control his excitement. "This song is so good! Is it your original song?"

"Have you heard it anywhere else?" Luo Feng proudly stole a glance at Ai Tingya.

Ai Tingya's skin was thin, and her face would turn pink if she was a little shy. In the past, she would always hide to the side and be too embarrassed to show it to others. After listening to Luo Feng's song, she stood next to Luo Feng and hooked her little finger around Luo Feng's hand.

"Come with me. You two are a perfect couple. You can definitely sweep the entertainment industry together!" Yang Tianzhen panted excitedly.

At this moment, Qiu Liang, who had followed behind said disdainfully, "His amateurish voice is everywhere on the streets."

Luo Feng didn't undergo professional singing training. He was trying to make Xing Miaomiao happy when he seriously thought about becoming a singer. There was a certain gap between his standards and professional singers.

But what did it matter? Yang Tianzhen could tell that Luo Feng's foundation wasn't bad. It wouldn't be a problem for him to beat Qiu Liang by a few streets with just a bit of training.

The more important thing was his originality!

Talent was talent. This was a gap that could not be made up for no matter how many teachers one had.

Yang Tianzhen's expression darkened as he cursed. "Shut up! Put away your ugly face!"

Luo Feng was the only one who wasn't surprised by Yang Tianzhen's sudden change of attitude. He could already tell that Yang Tianzhen was a person with very strong motives. Serving celebrities was his job as a manager. He would even be willing to become Yang Tianzhen's grandson as long as he could complete his task.

Therefore, he could tolerate Qiu Liang's arrogance. Even if he was dissatisfied with Qiu Liang's lip-syncing, he would still try his best not to let the negative news leak out.

However, his tolerance for Qiu Liang ended here.

"What do you mean?" Qiu Liang's face flushed red. "How dare you speak to me like that?!"

Yang Tianzhen sneered. "Don't forget who made you famous. You're an idiot who can't see reality. Do you think you can jump around without me?"

Qiu Liang was speechless.

Yang Tianzhen continued. "Apologize now if you want to continue staying in the entertainment industry!"

"I…" Qiu Liang gritted his teeth and struggled for a moment before losing. He lowered his head and said, "Big Brother Yang, I was wrong. I'm sorry. I'll definitely work hard in the future." 𝚋ｅｄ𝚗𝚘𝚟ｅ𝚕．𝚗ｅｔ

"Did I ask you to apologize to me?" Yang Tianzhen raised his eyes and glanced at him. "Apologize to this student!"

Ads by Pubfuture

"Student, I'm sorry! I spoke without thinking! Please forgive me!" Qiu Liang bowed 90 degrees. After saying that, he stood at the side as quiet as a chicken, completely different from the arrogant celebrity on the stage.

No wonder Yang Tianzhen's potential index is so high. His judgment is so sharp. However, I might have to disappoint him. Luo Feng thought to himself.

"Sorry, it's still too early for us to enter the entertainment industry." Luo Feng directly rejected Ai Tingya's suggestion.

Yang Tianzhen was not discouraged. He took a step back and said, "Then can you sell the copyright of the song to me?"

He raised his hand and pointed at the Qiu Liang beside him, wanting to get him to sing it. However, he felt that it was inappropriate and changed his words after thinking for a moment. "I'll get our company's most popular singer to sing it. Name your price!"

His tone was very humble. Dean Du was secretly shocked. Xiao Ya actually had such a powerful classmate?

Luo Feng saw how humble Yang Tianzhen was but his heart didn't waver at all, "I've already given this song to her, she's the owner of it, why don't you ask her?"

"Miss? Can you sell it to me?" Yang Tianzhen repeated.

Ai Tingya looked at Luo Feng in surprise. She didn't expect him to say that, so she was overjoyed. Luo Feng might have bought her a lot of things but this song was the best gift she ever received.

Then, she looked at Dean Du, whose face was full of vicissitudes. Dean Du would be much more relaxed if she sold this song.

Her conflicted heart was in a mess. Ai Tingya bit her lips and hesitated for a long time before saying slowly, "Sorry, I'm not selling."

Yang Tianzhen seemed to have a premonition. He smiled bitterly and said. "Alright, I won't force you. Come and find me anytime once you guys have thought it through!"

After saying that, he looked at Qiu Liang in disdain. Qiu Liang, who brought in mediocre results, looked like a fish's eye no matter how he looked at it after he saw the real pearl. Yang Tianzhen was so frustrated that he wanted to go back and find a new person to start a new account and train again.

The interlude quickly passed and the party continued.

This time, Qiu Liang seemed to be very cooperative. He went on stage and sang three songs in a row. He smiled warmly and got along well with the children. He almost used up all his skills to beg Yang Tianzhen to take another look at him.

Luo Feng had to admit that Qiu Liang's singing was pretty good. Luo Feng felt that he was much better than the singers with no talent in the future.

Yang Tianzhen held his head in a daze and did not look at the stage from the beginning to the end, unfortunately.

Luo Feng could understand Yang Tianzhen's depression. Qiu Liang's strength wasn't enough to support his character after all so his future development was limited. However, it's too troublesome to go back and find a newbie to train, and it's not easy to find one just like that.

Luo Feng took the initiative to sit beside Yang Tian Zhen: "Uncle Fatty, thank you for your praise today, we're all very grateful to you."

Yang Tianzhen smiled bitterly. "Thank me? If you really want to thank me, just be my artist."

Luo Feng said, "I definitely can't be an artist, but I can recommend a few people to you. Why don't you try looking for them?"

"Your classmate?" Yang Tianzhen sneered. "It can't be that your entire class is filled with both beauty and skill, right?"

Luo Feng subconsciously took out his phone and held it in his hand. Only then did he remember that this machine could only send text messages and make phone calls. Image function hasn't been developed yet.

"No." Luo Feng shook his head and pinched his fingers, looking like a charlatan. "There are two girls named Bingbing who will become popular female stars in your circle, you can go and find them."

"Bingbing?" Yang Tianzhen frowned. "This name is too common. Where can I find them?"

"I trust your eyesight. You'll understand when you see them." Luo Feng smiled mysteriously.

There will be two popular international female celebrities in the entertainment industry in the future. One of them might have made a mistake and fell from grace, but her beauty and ability could not be doubted.

Yang Tianzhen stared at Luo Feng skeptically. This teenage boy actually had the aura of a strategist. For some reason, he believed him!

"Alright, I'll keep a lookout." Yang Tianzhen licked his lips, feeling like he was being favored by the Gods.

Chapter 19: This Amount Of Betrothal Gift Is Definitely Not Enough

The orphanage's New Year's Eve party ended smoothly.

Yang Tianzhen said that the donation he promised would be in place in three days. He also asked Qiu Liang to drive Luo Feng to his house.

Qiu Liang thought that Luo Feng and Yang Tianzhen had reached some sort of agreement and that Luo Feng's status was higher than his, so he kept putting in a good word for Luo Feng, hoping that Luo Feng would put in a good word for him and beg Yang Tianzhen not to abandon him.

Luo Feng's words were perfunctory but Qiu Liang probably wouldn't be able to stay popular anymore if his memory served to be right.

The house was quiet when he returned home. His parents were already asleep.

Luo Feng quietly returned to his room and scrolled through the messages on his phone. There were a few more messages that said that he received a few more payments. The larger amounts were in the range of 10,000 yuan while the small ones were only a few hundred yuan.

It seemed that investing was not only about money, but also about feelings and information. Giving Yang Tianzhen a little hint also gave him a return of a few thousand yuan.

There was nearly 30,000 yuan in cash in the card, which was extremely reassuring for high school students.

Luo Feng felt that his dreams that night were extremely sweet.

The next morning, he rushed out and ran around the market after finishing his glutinous rice balls. It's the new year, so there aren't many shops that are open. Luo Feng had to go through a lot of trouble to find a bookstore that's open.

He took the things to the orphanage after explaining the situation to the boss.

…

Dean Du cooked a large pot of glutinous rice balls for the orphanage early in the morning. She wanted to tidy up the courtyard after breakfast.

The sensible Ai Tingya woke up early and was distributing glutinous rice balls with a spoon.

Xiao Fei panted as she ran in from outside and cheered, "Xiao Ya, Luo Feng is here!"

Ai Tingya was secretly delighted, but remained calm on the surface, "So be it. Let him come in and eat glutinous rice balls."

"No!" Xiao Fei slapped away the spoon in her hand and dragged her out the door. "He brought New Year's gifts, a van full of books! So many of them!"

The two of them excitedly ran to the courtyard and saw Luo Feng counting the books. The children from the other orphanages were also helping.

"Luo Feng, what are you doing?" Ai Tingya was shocked.

"I saw that your library is bare, those books look like they are about to fall apart, I'll buy a few to fill the shelves." Luo Feng said indifferently.

Ai Tingya took a deep breath. These are a few books? Did you move the entire bookstore here?!

"Oh my god! Why are there still papers?"

"Throw it away!"

"Quick, bury it!"

Luo Feng bought all the books suitable for teenagers from the bookstore. There were also a few test papers mixed in. The child who helped to move the books was quietly thrown into the grass, thinking that no one saw it, and Dean Du picked it up and saved it.

Every child was happy to have new books. When the book count was almost done, Luo Feng took out his bank card and said, "Boss, I'll pay by card."

"That's a total of 25,000 yuan." The bookstore owner said.

Ai Tingya's bargaining gene jumped again. She squeezed between the two of them and said, "Boss, we bought so many books. Give us a discount."

When the boss heard this, he chuckled and said, "Young lady, you really know how to survive. I haven't finished speaking. Just give me 20,000 yuan for 25,000 yuan. I don't see any decent book shelves in your library. I'll get someone I know to make a few for you tomorrow. The money for the cabinets is also included in the 20,000 yuan. How about that?"

Ai Tingya happily held the boss's hands and kept shaking them. "Thank you, boss. You're really a good person!"

What Luo Feng was most afraid of hearing was Ai Tingya bargaining. He lost 5,000 yuan in bargaining which meant 50,000 yuan in cash. Should he say that Ai Tingya was a spendthrift or a good saver?

"You're already helping me save money so early?" Luo Feng joked.

"I haven't said anything about you yet! Where did you get so much money?" Ai Tingya said angrily.

Normally, Ai Tingya would treat Luo Feng's purchases as money from Mother Luo. It definitely wasn't what Luo Feng's family should have now that he paid 20,000 yuan directly.

Luo Feng already knew this question would come up. He was still vexed about how to answer it, but he had a good reason to do so after last night.

"Last night, I introduced two people to Yang Tianzhen, and he gave me 30,000 yuan out of gratitude." Luo Feng lied.

Ai Tingya's eyes widened in surprise. "30,000 yuan? Is he that generous?"

Luo Feng said half-truthfully. "People in the entertainment industry can earn big money if they have the ability. This bit of money is nothing to him."

"So that's how it is…" Ai Tingya believed him and was immediately overwhelmed by emotions.

The first thing Luo Feng did when he received the money was to buy books for the orphanage. He was really caring. She didn't choose the wrong person, he was really worth entrusting herself to!

Ai Tingya happily hummed the song Luo Feng gave her thinking of this.

At this time, Luo Feng had already swiped his card. The phone in his pocket vibrated twice.

200,000 yuan entered his bank account!

The more he invested, the more he earned. This might be the joy of the snowball effect!

Small-scale methods of earning money were no longer enough to satisfy Luo Feng. He suddenly wanted to earn even more money as a New Year's gift.

"You… Stay here and help us tidy up the library." Ai Tingya urged him to stay. This was the first time she made a request to Luo Feng, and also the first time she tried to get closer to him.

Dean Du chuckled: "Xiao Ya, Luo Feng helped a lot, how could you let him work?"

Xiao Fei pouted in dissatisfaction beside them. She knew that Luo Feng was a good person and that Xiao Ya would definitely be happy if she were with him. However, she also felt a bit of unwillingness so her feelings towards Luo Feng were rather complicated.

Hence, she muttered stubbornly, "Don't even think of marrying our Xiao Ya with this small amount of betrothal gifts!"

Ai Tingya was discussing with Dean Du on what to eat for lunch when Luo Feng happened to hear this. He turned to look at Xiao Fei who wasn't convinced.

Xiao Fei noticed that Luo Feng was looking at her and blinked guiltily. "What are you looking at?"

Luo Feng pinched his chin and said thoughtfully. "This is indeed not enough."

Ads by Pubfuture

Xiao Fei panicked hearing this.

What's not enough? Isn't this enough? Bro, I was just mentioning it casually. Wouldn't Xiao Ya's heart bleed if you get anything more?

Luo Feng also felt that buying some books wasn't enough. As the saying goes, wise up and strengthen your body. How could the orphanage not have a place to train their bodies?

He had been negligent.

He hurriedly took his leave and looked for the nearest engineering team phone number, getting to the boss directly.

It was a good omen for business to come knocking on his door during the new year! The boss put down the melon seeds and candy and hurriedly gathered the workers on hand. When he heard that they were going to the orphanage to deliver warmth, he did not even have time to discuss the price before he carried his tools and went to the orphanage.

The boss of the engineering team had a good impression of the caring young man who contacted him.

"Little brother, it's the new year and you're here to do charity work. You're promising! I'll give you a discount!" The boss of the engineering team said generously.

"There's no need!" Luo Feng quickly stopped them, "It's hard on everyone to make a trip during the new year, so you definitely have to earn more money for the inconvenience."

He obtained the interest on the price he raised when he bought the sweater. This time, he wanted to raise it again to see if he could earn more!

Chapter 20: It Is Not Feasible To Play Tricks To Make Money

"Xiao Ya, Luo Feng's here again! But something's not right with him, hurry up and go take a look at the door." Xiao Fei once again rushed in to inform Ai Tingya and dug her out of the library.

Ai Tingya was confused. "What's wrong? What happened to him?"

Xiao Fei replied as she ran along. "He's become stupid!"

Ai Tingya tilted her head. The more she listened, the more confused she became. Luo Feng was fine in the morning, so how did he become stupid in the afternoon?

The two of them panted as they ran to the entrance of the orphanage. They saw a group of big brothers wearing safety helmets. The leader was a stocky man who looked troubled as he spoke to Luo Feng.

Ai Tingya leaned closer to listen.

"Little brother, I'll give you a friendly price since you're so caring. Usually, a basketball court costs 44,000 yuan. I'll charge you 38,000 yuan today. The number is also auspicious. What do you think?"

"It's been hard on everyone to make a trip during the new year. I think the price can be…" 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝒎

"Lower?"

Ads by Pubfuture

"Higher!"

Luo Feng's voice was loud and clear. Ai Tingya and the boss opened their mouths wide in disbelief.

"Uh…" The boss said unconfidently, "How much higher?"

"It's not easy for everyone to earn money. I see so many workers. How about 66,000 yuan? Buy some new clothes and new year goods for their wives and children. Everyone will be happy!"

The moment the boss heard the price, his eyes curved into crescents. He smiled and said politely, "This… This isn't good…"

This was the first time he had seen someone bargain in the opposite direction throughout his career as a cement duster to having his own engineering team. The boss tried his best to restrain his expression, trying to look more reserved, but the muscles on his face could not help but rise.

Luo Feng hoped that he would take more money and immediately gave him a solution. "If you feel uneasy, you can help us cover the maintenance for two years and give us a few basketballs. How about that?"

The extra money was enough to repair a smaller sized version, let alone two years of maintenance.

"Deal!" The boss held Luo Feng's hand as if he was holding a new year ball.

This magical bargaining method also shocked Ai Tingya and Xiao Fei.

Xiao Fei clenched her fingers as if she was praying and said in admiration. "Xiao Ya, Luo Feng is like the domineering CEO in the novels. His family must be very rich!"

Ai Tingya doubted herself. "As far as I know, his parents are just ordinary working class."

"That's the son of a tycoon who wandered into the common folks! He's been found recently!" Xiao Fei felt that Luo Feng's situation was very compatible with the male protagonist of the novel, and he was quite good looking.

"I'll ask him!"

Ai Tingya rushed over to Luo Feng's side, "You…"

"Hey!" Luo Feng's index finger pressed against Ai Tingya's lips, "It's a sponsorship from Uncle Fatty."

Yang Tianzhen was a brick. He could be moved wherever he needed him to be.

"Really?" Ai Tingya was suspicious. "How could he be so kind?"

Luo Feng shrugged: "I don't know, maybe he wants to do more good deeds, donating it to the orphanage is better than throwing it into the merit box."

Ai Tingya saw his cheeky expression and didn't quite believe what Luo Feng said. If it was really Yang Tianzhen who gave it to him, he would definitely take this opportunity to package his artists better.

At this moment, a wail from the backyard interrupted Ai Tingya's train of thought.

"My green onions!" Dean Du ran from the backyard to the front yard.

A basketball exercise court in the backyard meant that they would definitely have to occupy a portion of the vegetable field. It was a pity that the green onions that Dean Du had meticulously prepared were so tall that they eventually mixed in with the weeds.

Ai Tingya pulled her back and told her the whole story.

Even though Dean Du was happy, her benevolent smile was replaced by a rare serious expression: "Luo Feng, thank you. However, I hope you can tell Mr. Yang that there are other people who need help, our orphanage can rely on ourselves."

"Why?" Luo Feng was stunned.

"My children might have to suffer more than other children, but I don't think that's a bad thing. I believe that they will be more tenacious in the future and cultivate a never give up attitude after they experience all this." Dean Du said seriously.

Luo Feng understood. No wonder Ai Tingya was so sensible. It was definitely with Dean Du's teachings.

He nodded in understanding and smiled. "I understand. I'll let him know."

The basketball court was in full swing. Luo Feng would go to the orphanage under the guise of checking out its progress everyday. He would think of ways to ask Ai Tingya out to visit the beauty salons and clothing stores one by one.

This was because he had previously discovered that the return on the construction of the basketball court was only 380,000 yuan, which was only double the price quoted by the boss of the engineering team. It seemed that not every inflated price would succeed in giving him 10 times the interest.

Since then, he could only take Ai Tingya out to spend more money and use the number of times to make up for the low price.

Yang Tianzhen called Luo Feng during this period.

Luo Feng clearly remembered that he didn't give him his contact number, so he didn't know how Yang Tianzhen obtained his number.

Yang Tianzhen called and said that he had found two girls with the name "Bingbing" in the Film Academy. One of them was surnamed Li, and the other had the surname Fan.

He could only work with one person with his energy, but he wanted to ask Luo Feng which one he should work with seeing that both girls have great prospects.

Luo Feng didn't give a clear answer, only praising Yang Tianzhen's foresight.

Yang Tianzhen was really good, being able to zero in on these two targets with his ambiguous hint. It was like finding a needle in a haystack.

In the end, Yang Tianzhen hesitated for a moment and decided on the girl with the surname Fan. Luo Feng didn't comment on it and started to flatter her.

Unknowingly, a month of winter vacation passed in the blink of an eye. Luo Feng and Ai Tingya welcomed the last and most important semester of high school...

…

On the day of registration, in Class One of the Third Years.

Ads by Pubfuture

Xing Miaomiao held a comb and tidied her newly cut bangs. She was intoxicated by her own beauty in the mirror. A few classmates who passed by the door whistled at her and then laughed.

"Boring boys." Xing Miaomiao put down the comb as if she was used to it. She was secretly happy.

"Miaomiao, your new hairstyle is so beautiful!" Her best friend in the front row turned around and praised her jealously. She would have wanted to cut thick bangs too if it weren't for the fact that she had so little hair.

"This is the most popular hairstyle nowadays. It requires a lot of care!" Xing Miaomiao raised the comb again.

Her best friend was really envious of her exquisiteness: "Luo Feng must be filled with regret when he sees how beautiful you are."

Smack!

Xing Miaomiao slammed the comb on the table in dissatisfaction. "Why did you mention him for no reason?"

She got angry when she heard Luo Feng's name. In the past, he clearly wanted to be a bee that surrounded the flowers, but he started to turn a blind eye to her and hooked up with Ai Tingya instead since last semester!

Every man is a scumbag, and Luo Feng is the one with the most unique taste!

The more Xing Miaomiao thought about it, the angrier she got. She swore with three fingers, "I was blind to have misjudged him. From now on, I'm going to seal my heart and study hard! Let that b*stard Luo Feng go to hell!"

Chapter 21: Hey, Are You A Transfer Student?

"Good! As expected of our class belle! How ambitious!" Her best friend applauded cooperatively.

The more Xing Miaomiao was praised, the more excited she became. "I want to get into a good university, then Luo Feng will drop out of the rankings and be in a lousy job. I'll make him a toad who can't eat swan meat forever."

"That's right!" Her best friend chimed in hot-bloodedly. "He still dares to date in his third year of high school. He's clearly courting death. It's a good opportunity for him to pull down Ai Tingya's results. Our sister group will be in the top few!"

The two of them held a private Oath-Taking Rally in an empty classroom, as if they could already see a good future for themselves.

Xing Miaomiao jumped up in high spirits and said, "Let's go and ask the teacher for some study materials. I'm going to finish five papers when I get back tonight!"

Her best friend's blood boiled at her words, and they walked to the office arm in arm.

At this moment, a handsome man walked towards them.

Her best friend shook Xing Miaomiao's arm excitedly and said in a low voice, "Miaomiao, look, there's a handsome man at eleven o'clock! He's about 1.8 meters tall and has a sharp nose and thin lips. Oh my god! His skin is so fair!"

"It's true!" Xing Miaomiao took a deep breath.

Ads by Pubfuture

She was beautiful and knew how to dress up. She could modify her sack-like school uniform into curves, so almost all the handsome boys of the same age knew her.

"Why haven't I seen him before?" Xing Miaomiao quickly exchanged information with her best friend.

Her best friend was also puzzled. "Maybe he just transferred here. Why does he look a little familiar?"

"Aiya, good-looking people are all similar." Xing Miaomiao flipped her hair elegantly. "Watch me take him down!"

Her best friend rolled her eyes silently. Who said that she had to study hard just now? She had lost her mind in such a short time.

The two of them maintained their arm-in-arm posture and moved towards the handsome man.

Just as they were about to brush past each other—

"Ouch!" Xing Miaomiao gasped and clutched her shoulder. "It hurts!"

?

Luo Feng's head was full of question marks. You are the one who bumped into me, are you trying to pick a fight?

He remembered that he had received several death glares from her when he had bypassed Xing Miaomiao last semester. She must have cursed him thousands of times in her heart.

"What are you doing?" Luo Feng said coldly.

In Luo Feng's previous life, Xing Miaomiao ran away with his money when he was bedridden. Luo Feng didn't want to argue with her, and tried not to show his disgust on his face.

"It hurts." Xing Miaomiao rubbed her shoulder pretentiously. "Classmate, you bumped into me. Shouldn't you give me an explanation?" 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝒏𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡．𝙣𝒆𝙩

"Classmate?" Luo Feng sneered. Did Xing Miaomiao take the wrong medicine?

"I need to go to the infirmary. Classmate, send me there." Xing Miaomiao said sweetly. She was confident that no boy would reject her with her beauty.

Luo Feng stared at Xing Miaomiao's shy face in surprise. He took a step back as if he had seen a ghost. After a while, he realized that she was trying to strike up a conversation with him.

The physique pills Luo Feng took had already completed his transformation after a month of accumulation. He was handsome and tall now. Only people who interacted with him often, like his parents, would recognize him at first glance.

"The infirmary might not be able to treat you," Luo Feng laughed. "You should go to the ophthalmology department."

In the past two days, the novel about cold handsome men having sharp tongues was especially popular. Xing Miaomiao thought that she had picked up a treasure.

She was not angry at all. "If I can see you, it means that there's nothing wrong with my eyes. My name is Xing Miaomiao. Handsome, what's your name?"

Luo Feng rolled his eyes at her and sneered. "You should be very familiar with my name, right?"

Xing Miaomiao's eyes widened. Could he be a famous person? No wonder she found him familiar.

Luo Feng smiled as if he was looking at an idiot and said word by word. "My name is Luo Feng. Do you remember now, Classmate Xing Miaomiao?"

"Huh?"

Xing Miaomiao and her best friend took a step back in panic.

He really did seem to be Luo Feng!

A rare handsome man had suddenly become someone she hated. She was actually trying to seduce him. How embarrassing!

Xing Miaomiao's facial features scrunched up as if she had eaten a fly.

Luo Feng coldly snorted and bypassed her like a pole. He went straight back to the classroom and found a familiar seat to sit down on.

There were other classmates who filed in one after another in the classroom. They were all shocked to see him, especially Lei Jin, who was a lousy friend. The first thing he said when he saw Luo Feng was, "Luo Feng! You changed your head!"

Luo Feng glared at him and laughed, "I shouldn't have expected you to say anything nice."

Lei Jin sat down on his desk and curiously pinched Luo Feng's face. He clicked his tongue and praised. "The doctor's skills are really good. There's no wound at all… Could it be the nourishment of love? How far have you and Ai Tingya progressed?"

His mind was filled with unspeakable things with a sleazy smile.

Luo Feng started to play with him as he spoke.

At this moment, Ai Tingya walked into the classroom. Her hair, which was originally used to cover her face, was gathered up and tied into a ponytail behind her head. She was wearing a purple sweater under her school uniform.

Everyone in the class, with the exception of Luo Feng, was attracted to her as soon as she entered the classroom. Even Xing Miaomiao, who prided herself on her beauty, couldn't help but be stunned. The originally noisy classroom instantly fell silent.

Ai Tingya was able to face Luo Feng's gaze calmly after a month of winter break. She sat next to Luo Feng nonchalantly, put down her bag, and asked. "Why is everyone looking at me? Is there anything wrong with me?"

Luo Feng smiled and didn't say anything. He was extremely proud of himself.

Lei Jin said in surprise, "Oh my god! The two of you are so comfortable with each other! Is it too late for me to find a girlfriend now?"

Ai Tingya didn't understand what he meant and turned to look at Luo Feng questioningly.

The other male students gasped in unison.

She was too d*mn beautiful! Why hadn't they realized it before?

Luo Feng smiled without saying anything and slapped Lei Jin's face: "Go back to your seat, Teacher Yu is coming"

His words seemed to be able to predict the future. The sound of high heels came from the corridor.

Teacher Yu walked in with the lesson plan. She puffed out her chest proudly when she saw the orderly class. "I haven't seen you for a semester, but everyone has become sensible. Our class was the quietest along the way. The class monitor has done very well."

The class monitor lowered his head in shame, not wanting to say that all of this was thanks to Ai Tingya.

Teacher Yu held the podium with both hands. The students knew that this was her standard posture for talking about important matters, so they propped themselves up.

"I'll make the long story short. This semester is the last semester for everyone. It's very important, so I've decided… The two students at the back, did you guys go to the wrong class?"

Teacher Yu asked Luo Feng and Ai Tingya.

This was a little awkward. After confirming that there were no such good-looking children in her class, Teacher Yu could not ignore their looks and changed the serious topic.

Luo Feng smiled. "Teacher Yu, I'm Luo Feng and she's Ai Tingya."

Chapter 22: Let's Bet, You Have to Obey Me If You Get First Place!

"Ah… Oh… Oh, I haven't seen you for the entire winter break. You guys have changed a lot." Teacher Yu adjusted her glasses to hide her embarrassment. Children nowadays have so much nutrition. They really changed every day.

She couldn't help but glance at them again, as if confirming again if they had ever been so good-looking in the past.

"Ahem!" Teacher Yu cleared her throat and said, "Everyone knows that this semester is very important! First, we have to change seats. As you know, the school tradition is that everyone will sit alone in the last semester."

Originally, Luo Feng's class had two tables to one column. The third year students separated their tables in order to prevent them from being distracted.

At this point, Teacher Yu gave Luo Feng a meaningful look.

Luo Feng did well in the last semester's test. Teacher Yu secretly ranked him and realized that he was in the top five!

This proved that this child could still be saved. In the past, his grades fluctuated up and down because he didn't put in the effort. She was going to transfer Luo Feng to the first few rows. He should be able to study well under the teacher's eyes during these last few months.

As for Ai Tingya, she had requested to sit in the back. This child was sensible, obedient, and had a goal. Teacher Yu was very assured of her.

"Luo Feng, sit next to the podium, and…"

"Teacher Yu, Ai Tingya and I can study more seriously at the same table." Luo Feng raised his hand.

Teacher Yu squinted and said, "Is that studying? I'm too embarrassed to expose you. Do what I tell you to do."

"I want to sit with Ai Ting Ya." Luo Feng insisted.

"Eh—" The students in the class booed in unison, laughing at the sour smell of love.

How could Teacher Yu not know what these children were thinking? She had heard some rumors last semester, but she did not take it to heart because she was too confident in Ai Tingya.

"Luo Feng, everything I've arranged is for your own good! Please focus on your studies in the last semester! The entire class is sitting separately, but you're the only special one? Besides, Ai Tingya might not want to sit with you!" Teacher Yu suppressed her anger and said.

Right at this time, a delicate voice came from beside Luo Feng. "Teacher, I'm willing."

Ai Tingya replied in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. She wasn't ashamed to admit that she had feelings for Luo Feng.

"Ai Tingya?" Teacher Yu stared at the two of them in disbelief who were smiling at each other. She was so angry that she almost vomited blood!

She originally thought that Ai Tingya wouldn't be affected by Luo Feng. However, who knew that not only did the number one in the class fall into his hands, she even enjoyed it! She even said 'I'm willing'? Was she taking her marriage oath here?

"Luo Feng! Come to my office after class!" Teacher Yu was prepared to start with the culprit!

"Oh my—" The other students burst into regretful laughter again.

"What are you laughing at! Sit properly!" Teacher Yu slammed the table angrily and squeezed out every word from between her teeth.

The first class that reeked of gunpowder ended very unhappily. Teacher Yu's heels seemed to be able to spark a fire when she walked out of the classroom.

Luo Feng followed under the worried or mocking gazes of his classmates. Lei Jin's voice came from behind: "Luo Feng, I respect you as a man!"

He put his hands in his pockets and didn't care much. When he was about to reach the teacher's office, he heard a bang from inside— Teacher Yu was so angry that she threw a book!

Then, the voices of other teachers sounded. "What's wrong with you, Teacher Yu? Did the students make you angry again?" 𝘣𝑒𝑑𝑛𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Tell me, what are these children thinking now? It's the last semester! The last semester! Why do they have to fall in love at this time? Not only did he fall in love, he even dragged Ai Tingya down with him!" Teacher Yu roared.

The teacher in the office next door poked his head out curiously.

"The top student in your class, Ai Tingya? No way. I think she's a sensible child." Another teacher said in surprise.

The school took special care of students with special family circumstances. In addition, Ai Tingya's results were outstanding. Basically, all the teachers had a good impression of her.

"Would I be so angry if it weren't for Ai Tingya? You didn't see it just now. They were unhappy when I changed their seats."

"Then Teacher Yu, you have to take it seriously. I think Ai Tingya has a bright future. It would be a pity if it was delayed. Speaking of which, who is she dating?"

"Luo Feng!"

"Reporting!" Luo Feng knocked on the door and interrupted the two teachers.

The principal's office would probably hear them if they continued shouting. He did not want to cause trouble for Ai Tingya.

Teacher Yu sat down angrily and fanned herself with her hand. "Come in."

Luo Feng stood in front of Teacher Yu and stared at her seriously.

Good-looking people always had some privileges. The moment the other teacher saw Luo Feng's appearance, she took a deep breath and seemed to understand why Ai Tingya fell for him.

Half of Teacher Yu's anger dissipated when she saw Luo Feng. She said earnestly. "Luo Feng, I know you're a sensible child. You know about Ai Tingya's family situation. She can only study! If she fails the college entrance exam, the only thing waiting for her is to get married. You're her deskmate, so you should know better than me how difficult it is for her. Can you bear to do that to her?"

Even though the student in front of her didn't have outstanding grades in the past, he was a sweet talker and active in doing things. He didn't cause any trouble for the class. Teacher Yu has a good impression of Luo Feng, so he should be able to understand the logic.

Luo Feng said, "Teacher, being with Ai Tingya won't affect my results. On the contrary, it will improve. Ai Tingya was tutoring with me last semester. I'm sure you've seen my final results."

Ads by Pubfuture

To be honest, Teacher Yu was a little surprised to see Luo Feng's results at the end of last semester. She would have suspected that Luo Feng cheated if she didn't know Luo Feng's character.

However, a single examination result did not mean anything. Teacher Yu could not risk Ai Tingya.

"Do you know that Ai Tingya's tutoring will waste her time? I'll tutor you if you want to be tutored, okay?"

Luo Feng said seriously, "It's not Ai Tingya who's tutoring me, it's me tutoring her."

He was not lying. Under the catalysis of the pills, not only did he have a good memory, his comprehension ability was also outstanding. He could completely understand the contents of the new textbook after reading it once. He could revise the last lesson on his own when others were still studying the first lesson.

?

Teacher Yu was so angry that she laughed. "What kind of joke is this? What kind of grades do you have? You're already so arrogant after getting good results once."

Luo Feng also smiled. "Then why don't we make a bet? If I get first place in the class, Tingya and I will still be sitting at the same table. If not, I'll move to the side of the lecture table. How about that?"

"Alright!" Teacher Yu slammed the table and stood up. Kids nowadays did not know the immensity of heaven and earth. They would only know how to restrain themselves when they smashed their feet. "But you have to rely on your own ability! You're not allowed to cheat!"

"Deal!"

Chapter 23: The Examination Begins, Xing Miaomiao's Trick!

Luo Feng left the classroom with light footsteps after obtaining a satisfactory result.

The other teacher watched him walk away before saying, "Teacher Yu, are you alright? Why are you being led by the nose by a student? Are you the one lecturing him or is it the other way around?"

"It doesn't matter. I'll thank the gods if Luo Feng can really get first place. Last semester's end-of-semester questions were simple, and he couldn't even be ranked in the entire grade. Look at how proud he is now. I can use this opportunity to teach him a lesson. In the future, he should behave himself while sitting under my nose!" Teacher Yu said nonchalantly. 𝙗𝙚𝒅𝒏𝙤𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒐𝙧𝙜

"But I don't think he's bragging. What if he really gets first place?" Another teacher said worriedly.

Luo Feng exuded a rare sense of maturity as a student when he spoke just now. Even though it felt like Teacher Yu was lecturing him, in reality, he had the reins all the time. He had already explained the conditions of the bet, yet Teacher Yu was still completely unaware.

"Hehe, my class has one more person on the rankings if he really gets first place. What's there to be unhappy about?" Teacher Yu snorted.

She would not lose out either way. She had nothing to lose even if she was led by the nose.

…

Luo Feng returned to the classroom and felt the gazes of his classmates as if they were looking at a hero.

Ads by Pubfuture

He actually came back in one piece? Didn't she skin him alive?

Lei Jin happily ran over and sat on Ai Tingya's seat, asking him: "Luo Feng, what did Teacher Yu say to you?"

Luo Feng looked around and asked, "Where did Tingya go?"

"The math teacher called her away the moment you left. She probably went to help tidy up the office." Lei Jin quickly explained and asked, "What did Teacher Yu say to you?"

The other students also pricked up their ears to listen.

Luo Feng said calmly, "I suggested that I continue to sit at the same table as Tingya after getting first place. Teacher Yu agreed."

"Huh?" Lei Jin opened his mouth wide and immediately said with pity, "Brother, I heard that love makes people blind. Now I know that it is true by looking at you. First place, are you joking?"

"Do I look like I'm joking?" Luo Feng said calmly.

"Alright, I got it" Lei Jin stood up and hugged Luo Feng's shoulder, "Brother, I support you. Let's go, I'll treat you to sausages to support your love career!"

Luo Feng looked at his watch. It was lunchtime.

He thought that Ai Tingya must not have prepared lunch. "Just nice. I'll buy some lunch for Tingya. Let's go to the convenience store beside the canteen."

"Burp…"

Someone burped, as if they had seen too much flirting around.

The student who had been eavesdropping on the gossip did not expect to be stuffed with these lovey dovey sh*t. He awkwardly retracted his attention.

Xing Miaomiao, who was also eavesdropping, stomped her feet in anger. In the past, she was the only one who could enjoy the treatment of being fed by Luo Feng. She even saved her living expenses and obtained enough money to operate on her double eyelids by doing this.

Now, both her results and looks were inferior to Ai Tingya's!

"Luo Feng, just you wait. You definitely won't get first place!" Xing Miaomiao glared at Luo Feng and began to think about how to make things difficult for him.

…

The news of Luo Feng and Teacher Yu's bet quickly spread throughout the entire third year.

Ai Tingya was the last to know. She had been waiting in her seat ever since she came back from the office.

What awaited her wasn't an explanation from Luo Feng, but a sumptuous lunch.

Luo Feng bought a portion of braised beef, stir-fried lettuce, a small bowl of minced meat egg soup, and kelp soup. There was also a roasted sausage in the rice.

He sat down with a smile and said. "Lei Jin sponsored it as a friend. Hurry up and eat."

After a semester and a summer break, Ai Tingya was already used to Luo Feng's feeding and no longer shrink from it.

She picked up her chopsticks and took two bites. Then, she said worriedly, "I heard about the bet between you and Teacher Yu. Are you really confident in getting first place?"

Luo Feng's grades were indeed improving at a godly speed, but boasting about it right after the start of school was worrying.

"It's just getting the first in the class. I'll still be able to get in even if it's for the top student of our year." Luo Feng said sincerely without any hint of bragging.

Ai Tingya didn't want to hurt Luo Feng, so she forced a smile and said, "I heard from the math teacher that the first test will be in a week. You have to work harder these few days."

"Yes Madam!" Luo Feng said confidently.

…

A week passed very quickly. After the third year of high school entered the second half of the semester, any form of leisure and entertainment became an extravagant hope. Originally, they would rest for two days after five days of studying, but now, they would study for six and a half days and rest for half a day.

Ai Tingya didn't even have time to tutor Luo Feng even if she wanted to.

The agreed time had arrived in the blink of an eye.

The students had never expected the exam to start as soon as they did now.

Teacher Yu stepped on her standard high heels and slammed the thick test paper on the lecture table.

"This set of papers was set by me and the teacher from the next class. They're all questions that I usually talk about! It's very advantageous for you guys. Take the test well this time! I hope you didn't return the knowledge to me!"

Teacher Yu's big eyes would become as sharp as an eagle's every time it was time for the exam. The students kept quiet out of fear and could not help but shiver as she shot her laser beams.

"Luo Feng, sit here!" Teacher Yu pointed at the first row.

Luo Feng sat in the designated seat with a nonchalant expression. The only thing that bothered him was that Xing Miaomiao was only one classmate away from him.

"Proctor, please check the seal on the test paper."

"Proctor, please distribute the test papers."

"Please start answering the questions. The examination time is 120 minutes!"

They broadcasted the exact instructions for the college entrance examination. Teacher Yu began to patrol the middle of the aisle with her hands behind her back.

She was like a patrolling yaksha. Her small figure carried a powerful aura. The students on both sides did not dare to breathe loudly everywhere she walked.

What was worse was that she would stop as she walked. The sound of her high heels stepping on the ground was too obvious, and they could accurately tell that she had stopped behind a boy.

The boy did not dare to turn his head or touch his pen. He only felt a chill run down his spine. He felt that Teacher Yu was looking at his answer.

"Hmph." Teacher Yu let out a long sigh and walked over in disappointment.

The boy was so frightened that his heart was pounding. He started to check the answers he wrote before he finished writing the test paper.

Xing Miaomiao smiled with this pressure.

There was a black thermos on her table that could reflect the scene behind her with a 360 degrees view. She could tell how far away the teacher was from her even though it was not very clear.

While Teacher Yu's back was facing her, she secretly took out a note from her pocket and looked straight at Luo Feng.

She knew that her chances of winning would be unknown if she tried to use her lukewarm results to suppress Luo Feng.

She might as well "help" Luo Feng. The note in her hand was a gift prepared for Luo Feng! The answers were written all over it.

Luo Feng, it's up to you whether you get caught or not!

Chapter 24: Don't Speak, I Predicted What You Would Do

Xing Miaomiao hid the paper ball in her palm. It was the size of a pearl and would definitely attract attention if it fell to the ground.

Just as she was about to throw it when the hurried sound of high heels came from behind her, and the reflection in the thermos became bigger and bigger!

Xing Miaomiao quickly tightened her grip on the paper ball and pretended that she was writing furiously.

Teacher Yu swept past her angrily, making the students on both sides heave a sigh of relief.

Xing Miaomiao carefully looked up and saw that Luo Feng had put down his pen and was looking at the ceiling with his legs crossed.

Teacher Yu walked beside him and stopped. Even her peripheral vision emitted anger.

She did not only care about her students' grades. Teacher Yu treated children with bad grades but good character equally and even taught them more patiently.

The only students who had made her lose her patience were students with the wrong attitudes!

The exam had only started for 20 minutes, but Luo Feng had already revealed his true colors. His sitting posture was frivolous, and he didn't blend into the serious atmosphere of the exam at all.

Ads by Pubfuture

Teacher Yu stood beside him and glared at him.

Luo Feng didn't understand. Was it forbidden to be in a daze in the examination hall?

Teacher Yu squeezed out a voice from between his teeth. "Sit properly! There's a patrol leader watching!"

Luo Feng helplessly sat up straight on his chair and stared blankly at the blackboard with his chin propped up. If it wasn't for the exam's rule that one could only hand up the paper during the last half an hour, Luo Feng would have already handed in his paper and gone out for a stroll.

He shook the paper for Teacher Yu to take a good look seeing that she had no intention of leaving. He had already finished writing.

He finished writing in half an hour? Even copying answers wouldn't be that fast.

Teacher Yu continued, "You have to check after you're gone writing…"

"I checked it twice." Luo Feng said lightly.

"Hiss—" Teacher Yu was full of questions. She lowered her head and helped Luo Feng check the test papers.

The more she read, the more her brows furrowed and relaxed. After reading half of it, she could not help but smile.

Everything was right!

Not only did Luo Feng get it right, he even used a rare solution to the big question!

Teacher Yu could not help but flip the paper over. The two big questions at the back were a little beyond the examination syllabus. They needed new knowledge that the students had yet to learn. The purpose was to see how many children had studied new classes during the winter break.

Luo Feng's blank space was filled to the brim. If it wasn't for the difference in the solution, Teacher Yu would have suspected that she had accidentally missed a question.

"…Don't be arrogant." She forced out a reminder after holding it in for some time.

Luo Feng raised his head and smiled. "Thank you teacher for your guidance."

"Hmph." Teacher Yu patted Luo Feng's head lightly and continued to patrol with her hands behind her back.

Xing Miaomiao, who was only one person away, heard their conversation clearly. She heard Luo Feng say that he had checked it twice, she then looked at Teacher Yu who couldn't help but smile.

He did not look like he had been scolded.

Xing Miaomiao's palms were sweating. She suddenly did not dare to frame him anymore. She had a feeling that she would shoot herself in the foot.

She scolded herself for being a coward. She had retreated without doing anything.

However, thinking from another perspective, if Luo Feng saw the note and got caught, the handwriting would definitely lead back to her. Even though she wrote with her left hand, her writing habits could still be discerned.

Xing Miaomiao consoled herself that she didn't prepare enough this time. She would definitely teach Luo Feng a lesson next time!

Hence, she silently stuffed the paper ball under her butt.

At the same time, Ai Tingya also noticed Luo Feng.

She knew that if Luo Feng wanted to get first place in the class, she would be the biggest obstacle… She hoped that Luo Feng could win since she also wanted to continue being Luo Feng's deskmate. Being by Luo Feng's side made her feel extremely at ease.

Ai Tingya had pre-studied a new class during the winter break and saw the purpose of the last two major questions.

She didn't know if Luo Feng would be able to do it, Luo Feng would always drag her out to shop because during winter break. In other words… if she wanted to help Luo Feng, she would have to give up on them.

At the thought of this, Ai Tingya hastily wrote an answer in the blank space of the first big question. Then, she turned back and began to check.

Luo Feng, this is all I can do.

Immediately after, the two-day foundation test quickly ended.

Luo Feng's performance in almost every exam was the same. He finished it within half an hour and handed in his paper half an hour in advance. Then, while the other students were packing up their stationery and complaining about how difficult the exam questions were, Luo Feng brought food back, chatted and laughed with Ai Tingya.

Even though Ai Tingya looked like she had a lot on her mind, she was happy to see Luo Feng. The hearts of half of the boys in the classroom melted the moment she smiled.

…

"How can this question be wrong?!"

"Did this person listen to the class or not!"

"What kind of essay is this? Even a chicken's beak looks better than this!"

"The chemical formulas are all wrong. Where did the last bunch come from?"

The teachers of the various subjects who were editing the papers were about to be broken by all kinds of strange answers in the classroom office. There was a nameless fire that could not be extinguished no matter how much chrysanthemum tea was poured down their throats.

"I'm so angry. Still thinking about taking the college entrance examination at this level?" Teacher Yu slapped the book on the table speechlessly. One more look and her eyes would hurt.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry. Teacher Yu, look at this paper. The answer is very good. The paper is also very clean!" The teacher beside her called out in surprise. "Everyone, come and take a look too. I wonder which class this student is from."

It was rare for there to be such a high evaluation. Even teachers who did not teach mathematics leaned forward to take a look.

"It's really very good. There's no mark at all."

"The handwriting doesn't look like it's from our class. What a pity."

"I want to remember this student's name. Let's have a sneak peak at who he is."

The mathematics teachers were discussing this perfect paper. Teacher Yu glanced at it and retreated to the back quietly. Fireworks exploded in her heart.

Wasn't this Luo Feng's paper? She had already seen it once during the invigilation.

Ads by Pubfuture

She pretended not to know as she looked at the scenery.

Then one of the teachers said in surprise: "Luo Feng! He's from Teacher Yu's class!"

All the teachers' attention shifted from the papers to Teacher Yu. They said enviously, "Teacher Yu, why haven't I heard you mention such a good student in your class?"

"I'll be thankful if our class's papers are half as good as Luo Feng's."

"Teacher Yu, can you lend me your lesson plan? I also want to help the students in my class."

"I only knew about Ai Tingya from your class in your class. Why haven't I heard of Luo Feng?"

Teacher Yu's face had never been as bright as it was at that moment. There was an uncontrollable joy on her face. 𝓫𝓮𝒹𝓷ℴ𝓿ℯ𝓵.𝓬ℴ𝓶

She pretended to be angry and said, "Luo Feng? Don't mention him. He made a bet with me and said he wanted to get first place in order to sit with a girl. I thought he was bragging! Was that his paper? Did you see it wrong?"

"No!" A teacher handed over the original paper and opened the gap to reveal the name.

Teacher Yu covered her mouth and laughed. "Aiyo, I knew this kid had a lot of potential previously. He has finally exploded now."

Chapter 25: Announcing The Results, Two Unexpected Results!

After the bet with Luo Feng, Teacher Yu told the other teachers to keep an eye on Luo Feng and tell her about his performance in the exam.

It was definitely one's strength to do well in all six subjects even if one could fluke to do well in one subject.

Therefore, the other teachers were so envious that they were about to drool.

"I have always known that Luo Feng was a smart kid. He's finally willing to focus on his studies." Teacher Yu patted his chest with relief.

Another teacher who witnessed the entire bet felt that something was wrong. Teacher Yu, that wasn't what you said previously!

The other teachers said enviously, "Teacher Yu, you're really something. If Luo Feng is in our class, I'll let him sit wherever he wants. It doesn't matter even if he wants to sit with me. I'll move my desk to the classroom."

"Isn't this to motivate him? These children will never know how to work hard without some tricks." Teacher Yu said proudly.

The teachers could not help but applaud. They all felt that Teacher Yu had taught him well!

…

In another classroom.

The students waited nervously for the results to be announced.

Everyone felt that the questions this time were too difficult. It was barely possible to finish them in 120 minutes.

The bell rang.

The sound of Teacher Yu's signature high heels could be heard in the corridor. Every step was like an approaching Asura.

Bang!

The thick test paper was thrown on the desk. Teacher Yu said coldly with a straight face, "This test has simply disappointed me to the extreme. You've all gone crazy during vacation and returned me all the knowledge I've given you! Someone even dared to score 15 points!"

The students below the stage sat upright with their heads lowered, not daring to raise them. It was as if they would not be the one who scored 15 points as long as they did not meet the teacher's eyes.

Teacher Yu walked around the podium with her hands behind her back. "Especially for a few people! Leaving the big questions behind empty. Are you waiting for me to write them for you? Didn't I emphasize that you have to try your best to write some formulas even if you don't know how to do it! Didn't I teach you to figure out the teacher's intentions?"

The students all looked at Luo Feng hearing her resentful tone.

Everyone saw him hand in his paper half an hour in advance and ran out to buy food. It was a classic case of giving up everything.

Previously, he had boasted that he would get first place in the exam. Now, he has lost a lot of face.

"It seems that everyone knows that I'm talking about you, Ai Tingya!" Teacher Yu said sadly, "What do you want me to think? Come up and get your paper. 92 marks!"

A passing grade was a major failure for Ai Tingya, who was firmly in the top three.

However, Ai Tingya did not feel sad. She only felt that she had let Teacher Yu down.

She took the paper back and walked back. Luo Feng asked worriedly beside her. "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

It was not a big deal if she did badly. He was only worried about Ai Tingya's condition. He reached out to take Ai Tingya's paper and wanted to help her sort out the wrong questions.

"I'm fine." Ai Tingya quickly took the paper and stuffed it into her desk drawer, not allowing Luo Feng to look at it.

Her pride wouldn't be able to take it if Luo Feng knew that he was going easy on him.

She smiled brightly and said. "It's alright, I just didn't do as well as I normally do."

The other students at the side also blushed when they saw this scene.

Ai Tingya smiled like the most beautiful flower in spring. Anyone would want to admire her.

At this moment, Teacher Yu, who was on stage, changed the topic. "Also, a student improved a lot in this exam! Luo Feng scored full marks!"

"Not only that, but he is top in all subjects. Not only is he the first in our class, but he's also the first in the entire grade! Everyone, clap!"

Whoosh!

The class burst into applause immediately. The applause was like a tidal wave. Everyone's eyes were wide open, unable to believe that Luo Feng was actually a hidden expert!

A smile finally appeared on Teacher Yu's serious face when the applause stopped. "I'll paste the total score sheet next to the blackboard. Students, please learn from Luo Feng."

The students swarmed forward impatiently as soon as Teacher Yu pasted the form and made way.

Their own results didn't matter anymore, how on earth did Luo Feng manage to get first place?

"You can even score 150 marks in Chinese? Can your essay be used as a template?"

Logically speaking, it was rare for an essay to get full marks since one or two marks would be deducted no matter what. However, Luo Feng's writing was simply too invincible, and there was nothing wrong with its appeal, so he got a rare full score.

"Full marks for English!"

"Full marks for science!"

"Luo Feng is going to defy the heavens!"

The exam this time was ridiculously difficult. The difference between the second place in the class and Luo Feng's total score was as much as 129 points, and this was under the condition that the second place got full marks in English!

This seemed to confirm the old saying: The second place got 150 marks because he could only get 150 marks, while Luo Feng got 150 marks because there were only 150 marks on the test paper.

The students were so shocked that they were speechless. They had never thought about how it felt to have a God-level top student by their side.

However, Luo Feng felt that such a small matter wasn't worth mentioning.

He pushed aside the students in front of him and searched for Ai Tingya's results.

29th…

Ai Tingya, who had always been in the top three, had actually fallen below the 25th place. That shouldn't be the case…

Luo Feng frowned and turned his head to look at Ai Tingya, who hadn't moved. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝑛𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙．𝘯𝘦𝘵

She didn't seem to be surprised that she had dropped more than ten places. It was fine if she didn't perform well in one subject, but why were all of them hovering around the passing mark?

He returned to Ai Tingya's side and wanted to talk to her, but he saw Ai Tingya's smile when he was about to speak, as if telling Luo Feng not to ask too much. He suddenly didn't know where to start.

…

After the class meeting ended, Lei Jin wore a fawning smile as he squatted beside Luo Feng. "My brother, will you still keep your promise of tutoring me?"

Luo Feng vaguely remembered something from last semester and replied: "Sure, when are you free?"

"How about your place after school?"

"That won't do. My mother asked Tingya to go to our house for dinner. Do you want to be a third wheel?"

"Ah! You're too fast! You're moving in together?"

Lei Jin was even more shocked when he heard that Luo Feng was the top student in the entire year when he heard this news. He knew that there was no chance for him to make up for it, so he came up with another brilliant plan.

"If you can't tutor me, why don't you introduce me to someone? It's best if she's beautiful and has good grades! I also want to risk my life for someone! Perhaps my conception and governing vessels will be opened!" Lei Jin said yearningly.

"Haha, you have everything in a dream, why don't you be the third wheel then?" Luo Feng mercilessly attacked.

"You're not even willing to grant me passionate love? Are you still my brother?" Lei Jin stomped his feet.

Luo Jin gave him a disdainful look. How should he make Lei Jin accept the difference in intelligence? It was reality even though it was cruel!

"Oh? You want to date too?"

At some point in time, Teacher Yu had appeared behind Lei Jin like a ghost. She had a fake smile on her face, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, looking very terrifying.

Lei Jin broke out in cold sweat. "I was joking!"

With that, he ran out.

Teacher Yu snorted. When could these children not make her worry?

Then she turned to look at Luo Feng: "Follow me to the office."

Chapter 26: What Charm Do You Say You Have?

Luo Feng followed Teacher Yu into the classroom office, but it didn't seem like she was going to reward him from her expression.

Unlike the previous time, Teacher Yu pulled a chair for Luo Feng and urged him to sit before she sat down herself.

"Okay." It looked like they were going to have a long talk.

"Have you eaten?" Teacher Yu asked.

"…I would have gone to eat if you hadn't called me." Luo Feng answered mechanically.

"Oh… Then I'll make it short then."

"Go ahead, Teacher."

"Tell me, what's your charm?"

?

Luo Feng frowned. You want me to tell you what kind of charm I have? Like a product description?

"Teacher Yu, what are you trying to say?" Luo Feng asked.

Teacher Yu scrutinized Luo Feng for a moment, her eyes almost glued to Luo Feng's face. She nodded seriously and took out a few exam papers from the drawer, "I borrowed them from the teachers of each subject. They're all Ai Tingya's papers. Take a good look at them."

Luo Feng felt like a parent.

He picked up the paper and looked at it. Ai Tingya's handwriting was as good-looking as her. It was neat and tidy, and the surface of the paper could be seen at a glance. It was the kind that teachers liked the most.

Unfortunately, the score was not high.

Luo Feng flipped through it, and only then did he understand what Teacher Yu wanted him to look at— Ai Tingya didn't even finish the questions at the back.

"I guess Ai Tingya wanted you to get first place and deliberately left it empty. You probably don't know, but she didn't do the last four questions on the math paper. She's really generous." Teacher Yu said sourly.

Why did such a talented student have a brain full of love?

Luo Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He didn't expect that silly girl to have such a plan.

"Go back and tell her that I will keep my promise and let the two of you sit together, but tell her not to do this again. I was almost scared to death when I saw the scores." Teacher Yu reminded him.

She first obtained the scores from the teachers of each subject.

Initially, she thought that she had lost by mistake. Later on, when she compared Luo Feng and Ai Tingya's scores, Teacher Yu was suspicious for a second— Did they switch bodies…

Fortunately, the truth was revealed after looking at the test paper. Ai Tingya was still the same Ai Tingya.

"I got it, thank you for giving us your blessings." Luo Feng still pretended to be obedient after getting the advantage.

Teacher Yu glared at him. "Alright, go back and eat."

Luo Feng happily left the office and coincidentally bumped into Ai Tingya, who was standing at the door. Her face was filled with worry. She relaxed a lot the moment she saw Luo Feng.

"I heard from Lei Jin that you were called away by Teacher Yu. What did she say to you?" Ai Tingya asked carefully.

Luo Feng patted her head lovingly and slowly sighed.

This girl was really worried every day. She could imagine countless possibilities when the teacher called him away.

Luo Feng remembered the way Ai Tingya hid the papers and knew that she was thinking of him again.

"It's nothing. Teacher Yu agreed to let us sit together and even asked me to supervise your studies. You've regressed a little too much this time." Luo Feng pampered her.

Ai Tingya sniffed and said. "I just occasionally make mistakes. I don't need your supervision."

Luo Feng had previously heard from Xiao Fei that Ai Tingya would read until one or two o'clock in the morning during winter break. Her self-aware learning attitude was frightening.

However, Luo Feng couldn't let go of anything, including Ai Tingya's studies.

"Let's go, it's time to eat." Luo Feng pulled Ai Tingya along and decided to use his limited time to bring her out for a good meal.

…

After the night self-study ended, Luo Feng originally wanted to ask Ai Tingya to go to his home for supper, but Ai Tingya felt that she did too badly and was afraid that Mother Luo would be disappointed if she asked about it, so she rejected him.

Luo Feng first sent her back to the orphanage, then returned to his own home.

He had to make his parents happy for his good results.

"I'm back." Luo Feng opened the door and smelled the fragrance of dumplings.

Mother Luo wrapped her arms around her waist and had yet to put down the spoon in her hand. "The two of you came back at the right time. The dumplings that have just been cooked are Tingya's favorite pork and cabbage filling."

His biological mother called out to Ai Tingya first. Did he still have any status in the family?

Luo Feng speechlessly threw his bag to the side and said, "Where did Tingya come from? Your Tingya went home first. There is only your biological son here."

"What? Didn't I ask you to bring Tingya home?" Mother Luo did not believe it. She craned her neck to look at the door. After confirming that there was only one person, she returned to the kitchen in disappointment.

Luo Feng straddled the dining table, declaring his family status.

Father Luo started to ease the awkwardness, "Didn't you take the exam two days ago? The results should be out today, right? How did you do?"

"It's alright." Luo Feng was busy eating dumplings.

"How so?"

"So-so, got first place." Luo Feng mumbled while eating dumplings.

Father Luo only heard "first place" clearly, and his heart instantly rose to his throat. "You said first place from the bottom?" 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝑙．𝑜𝑟𝘨

"From the front! The front!" Luo Feng took out a stack of papers from his bag. "First in class. First in the entire grade."

Mother Luo ran out of the kitchen again upon hearing this. She held up the test paper as if she was checking money, identifying the authenticity one by one.

"Aiyoyo! It's true! Green smoke is really rising from our ancestors' graves!" Mother Luo spun around excitedly. "Tingya is still the best. I finally see the effect after such a long period of tutoring."

Luo Feng squinted his eyes in dissatisfaction, "Mother, isn't it possible that your son is working hard?"

"You wouldn't have worked hard if it's not for her. You must bring her back tomorrow. I want to thank her in person." Madam Luo hugged the paper and walked around happily.

She threw away the apron and prepared to leave, feeling unsatisfied.

"Were your Aunt Zhang and the others still dancing when you came back? I'll go out and dance for a while."

Ads by Pubfuture

Seeing this, Father Luo quickly pulled his wife back and said, "Who's still dancing outside at ten o'clock? If you want to show off… No, If you want to dance, wait until tomorrow."

Father Luo could tell what Mother Luo wanted to do with just her gaze being with her for so many years. She must have seen that her son had done well and wanted to go out and show off to her sisters.

"Look at my brains. I'll go tomorrow. I'll bring Tingya along tomorrow!" Mother Luo said happily.

Luo Feng couldn't help but complain, "Mom, did you pick me up from the trash can?"

Mother Luo rolled her eyes at her son. "Are you doubting my taste? I would have picked Tingya up instead of you. Why would I raise you up if you weren't my own?"

"You've mentioned Tingya 800 times just now. Tingya must be sneezing non-stop."

"Rascal, you're even criticizing your mother. Would you be where you are today if it weren't for Tingya? You must be secretly happy!"

Mother Luo tapped dotingly on Luo Feng's forehead. This son of hers has really grown up. Not only did he find a good girl, he's also working hard to improve. At this rate, getting into a good university won't be a problem!

"Remember to learn more from Tingya." She reminded him.

"…Okay."

Chapter 27: Warming Your Hands, Not Letting You Take Advantage

Luo Feng carried his bag and walked into the classroom early the next morning. He saw Ai Tingya sitting in the first row under the podium and Teacher Yu standing on the podium. Her face was full of smiles when she saw Luo Feng.

She seemed to be saying, "I mean what I say, but do you think I'll let you guys continue to sit at the back? Naive!"

She directly moved their seats to the front. Theirs was the only two tables placed side by side in the class. The others seemed to be allergic to all their other classmates. Their desks were separated by an aisle.

Luo Feng stuffed his bag into the drawer while Ai Tingya sat awkwardly in her seat.

"I'm still in the first row."

She still felt imprisoned when she was constantly exposed to others' gaze even though she was no longer afraid of them.

Luo Feng resisted. "Teacher Yu, we can study hard no matter where we sit. It's easy for us to be short-sighted if we're too close. You should leave this precious position to your weaker classmates."

Teacher Yu snorted smugly. "The two of you are now the focus of my protection. It's more convenient for everyone if you sit here."

I don't believe that you dare to flirt with each other under the teacher's nose. She thought.

Ads by Pubfuture

"But my lungs would be filled with chalk dust." Luo Feng opened his mouth and said. He didn't really like the first row. During the last exam, he kept hearing rustling sounds behind him, which made him very uncomfortable.

The stronger their reaction, the more necessary it was for them to sit in the first row.

Teacher Yu waved his hand. "Students, you have to study hard after changing seats. Don't think about nonsense."

She left the classroom with light steps without waiting for Luo Feng to reply.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled helplessly.

"Don't worry about this for now. You haven't had breakfast yet, right?" Ai Tingya pulled her chair out and asked with concern.

Luo Feng took out a boiled egg from his pocket and handed it to her. "I've already eaten, but the porridge my mom made this morning was too watery. Eating it was like not eating it at all."

Ai Tingya took out a meat bun from her clothes and exchanged it for the boiled egg upon hearing this. "This meat bun is very delicious. Eat it quickly."

Luo Feng looked at the steaming hot meat bun in his hand and sniffed it.

It was indeed very fragrant, and Ai Tingya was afraid it would turn cold, so she put it inside her clothes. The bag still had the fragrance of lemon soap on it. Luo Feng was very familiar with the scent on Ai Tingya's body, so he could smell it immediately.

"Have you eaten?" Luo Feng asked.

"Yes, I've eaten." Ai Tingya peeled the boiled egg seriously without looking at Luo Feng.

Her small actions were too obvious. Ai Tingya really did not know how to lie.

Luo Feng placed the meat bun on the table and stared at Ai Tingya's face until her face turned red.

Ai Tingya turned her head away guiltily and said, "How do you know that I haven't eaten?"

"Of course I know. You usually rely on steamed buns for three meals, but you're willing to eat meat buns for breakfast? Hurry up and eat this too!" Luo Feng said.

Does she think I'm an idiot?

Luo Feng opened the package without any explanation and stuffed the meat bun into Ai Tingya's mouth. He then took the boiled egg, peeled it, and placed it on her other hand.

Ai Tingya didn't dare to resist. She held the meat bun and took two bites. Her round, little squirrel eyes observing Luo Feng's every move.

"Next time, remember to buy it for yourself." Luo Feng didn't forget to nag. Ai Tingya and him had been together for so long, but Ai Tingya still hasn't learned how to take care of herself. What if he wasn't with her?

Ai Tingya bit the meat bun and said. "I am taking good care of myself."

"You're taking care of yourself by eating steamed buns three times a day?"

"I… I have to save money…"

Luo Feng was confused: "You can still save money even though you are in the orphanage?"

"Of course. The Dean will give us an allowance every year during the new year. In the past, I also went out to work part-time when my schoolwork wasn't heavy." Ai Tingya immediately stood up and said proudly at the mention of this.

Before entering high school, Ai Tingya would wash dishes or hand out flyers every week. She had done almost all the jobs that minors could do.

Luo Feng felt his heart tighten. He joked, "What do you want to do with the money you saved?"

Ai Tingya thought for a moment and said, "University tuition, living expenses, these all cost money. I also want to buy a washing machine for the orphanage, but this might have to wait until I start working."

She was too sensible and saw things too far ahead.

Luo Feng found it hard to imagine a middle schooler worrying about college tuition fees, saving so much money that she would only eat steamed buns and pickled vegetables for three meals a day. She held back her desires to save as much money as she could.

And yet this frugal Ai Tingya spent money to buy me a meat bun that she couldn't bear to eat herself…

Luo Feng grabbed a piece of bun skin and stuffed it into his mouth. He didn't want to let Ai Tingya down, so he repeatedly praised it. "The bun skin dipped in gravy is the best. The bun you bought tastes really good."

Seeing this, Ai Tingya smiled even more happily than if she had eaten a meat bun herself.

Luo Feng smiled slyly: "But next time, you'll have to use your mouth to feed me."

"Hey you!" Ai Tingya blushed and finished the remaining buns in two to three bites.

Students filed in one after another while the two of them were chatting.

They saw the two of them sitting at the front, caring for each other affectionately. In the end, they went to the corridor to take a walk helplessly, lest they became third wheels for the young couple here.

The bell rang.

The first class was Teacher Yu's math class.

She stood on the podium and was able to see Luo Feng and Ai Tingya's actions with the slightest turn of her head. She didn't believe that the two of them were still in the mood to do anything with this scrutiny.

"Alright, everyone, take out yesterday's exercise book." Teacher Yu took the chalk and officially started class.

Luo Feng yawned in boredom.

Putting aside the fact that he had learned this knowledge in his previous life, the things in his textbook were no longer difficult ever since he took the pill.

Learning what he already knew made him feel like he was wasting his youth. If it weren't for the fact that Ai Tingya needed to listen to class, he would have brought her out to play and see the world.

His eyes wandered aimlessly around the classroom, looking at everything except the blackboard.

At this moment, Ai Tingya looked a little strange.

She shrunk her neck, and her taut facial muscles looked like she was about to break her molars. Her breathing was thin and broken, and the hand holding the pen was red, as if she had just been fished out of ice water.

Her handwriting was crooked, and Ai Tingya was so anxious that she kept sniffing.

"Not feeling well?" Luo Feng asked softly.

"It's a little cold." Ai Tingya's voice trembled. "I can't hold the pen well."

Spring was cold. The difference in temperature between day and night was huge even though the sun came out more often than winter. It was no different from winter in the mornings.

Only then did Luo Feng realize that Ai Tingya was dressed inadequately. There was only a thin cotton shirt under her school uniform.

He unzipped his jacket and took Ai Tingya's hand, letting her reach into his clothes for warmth. This was the fastest way to keep warm.

Ai Tingya's face was so red that it looked like blood was about to drip out. She struggled twice, but Luo Feng was too strong and forced her hand down.

She could no longer resist the warmth. She slowly opened her fist and pressed it against Luo Feng's tight waist.

Chapter 28: Someone Confessed to Ai Tingya!

It was already autumn when she got close to Luo Feng last semester. Everyone was wearing long sleeves.

Ai Tingya didn't expect Luo Feng's figure to be so good. Her hands that were gradually warming up could feel the tight muscles on his waist. It seemed like she could even feel the defined shape of Luo Feng's muscles.

She was suddenly curious about what Luo Feng looked like under his clothes.

Ai Tingya mustered up her courage and slowly moved her hand under Luo Feng's clothes to his abdomen, unable to resist her curiosity.

It felt like a chessboard. Ai Tingya pinched it in disbelief.

"Pfft." Luo Feng laughed at the punch.

This was a classroom after all. It was too outrageous to laugh out loud.

He resisted the itch and pressed down on Ai Tingya's hand to warn her. "Don't move."

Ai Tingya felt that he was too interesting this way. He did not want her to move so she insisted on moving. Her slender fingers were like squirming little bugs as they wandered around the clear boundary of his abs.

"So you have abs." Ai Tingya said mischievously. Her shyness did not stop her from causing trouble.

Luo Feng had no choice but to use his eyes to warn Ai Tingya to behave, afraid that he would burst out laughing.

"I won't." Ai Tingya found it extremely interesting.

Luo Feng grabbed her hand and squeezed out a few words. "Don't move! Otherwise, I'll touch you too!"

Don't force me to be a hooligan!

"Haha." Ai Tingya snickered. She squeezed the abs one last time and pulled her hand back.

She held her warm hand, which still had Luo Feng's warmth on it. Warmth that was boiling in her chest.

"I'll teach you a lesson after class." Luo Feng glared at Ai Tingya and raised his head to listen to the class.

He coincidentally met Teacher Yu's speechless gaze.

Young people nowadays really know how to enjoy life. Everywhere is a sweet garden, right? It doesn't matter if the teacher is up there or not, right? Do you think I can't see?

Teacher Yu felt that she was a little redundant for the first time. She shouldn't be on the podium. She should be at eye level, that way she didn't have to see this sickly sweetness.

For the first time, she regretted moving the two of them from the last row to the first row, implicating the students behind them.

"Luo Feng, come up here and solve this question. I've just explained it." Teacher Yu decided to teach Luo Feng a lesson. Otherwise, he wouldn't be thinking about studying anymore.

He must not have listened to the lecture when he was playing with Ai Tingya just now.

"Okay."

Luo Feng tidied up his clothes and walked up to the podium. He picked up a piece of chalk and quickly wrote down the steps for answering the questions. His movements were so fast that Teacher You almost couldn't react.

Luo Feng threw the chalk back into the chalk slot when it was time to write the answer and said "There's only simple multiplication left following the steps. I won't waste everyone's time."

With that, he stuffed his hands into his pockets and returned to his seat.

"Ugh…" Teacher Yu reacted for a while before remembering that she was the one teaching, "Luo Feng's answer is very good, everyone should learn from him"

She originally wanted to use this as an excuse to make Luo Feng restrain himself, but in the end, he managed to pull one over on her!

The female students looked at Luo Feng's back in admiration, while the other male students rolled their eyes.

Teacher, do you think we're blind?

Learn from Luo Feng to hold hands with girls during class? Can we get good results by holding hands?

The heavens are unfair!

However, Luo Feng managed to get first place, so the students could only silently swallow their public display of affection. After all, this was fed to them by the top student.

After the class ended, Teacher Yu looked at Luo Feng again. "You two come with me to the office."

The two of them fell far behind Teacher Yu.

"Why is Teacher Yu looking for us? Is she trying to say that we shouldn't joke around in class?" Ai Tingya said uneasily.

She was a good student who did not worry the teachers and had never been called to the office by a teacher to be educated.

Luo Feng pursed his lips and said, "You're the one making a scene, okay? Warming your hands and even tickling me. Lucky for us, I did not laugh out loud, so I can still argue later. Otherwise, it'd really be considered as flirting."

"Who are you talking about? Who's flirting with you?" Ai Tingya scolded jokingly.

You can't blame your abs for being too charming!

The two of them walked into the office and saw Teacher Yu drinking chrysanthemum tea. She felt that it was not enough and poured herself another cup when she saw the two of them enter.

"I called you here mainly because there's an Oath-Taking Rally next week. I've decided to let you two speak as the student representative." Teacher Yu carried herbal tea and said, "You can go up to speak separately."

Luo Feng's exam results were so good that even the principal knew about it.

Initially, Teacher Yu thought that it would be too hasty to use his performance on one examination to decide on this. She wanted to find a more stable classmate to go up. However, the principal felt that Luo Feng was a good example and asked for him to go up and speak.

As for Ai Tingya, she had deliberately gotten the results this time but she was usually a sensible and obedient student, so there was nothing wrong with letting her go up.

"Go back and prepare your speech. Is there a problem?" Teacher Yu asked.

Ai Tingya heaved a sigh of relief. She thought she was going to be scolded. "I'm fine."

"Hm. Luo Feng, you…" Teacher Yu was the most worried about Luo Feng. She took out a document from the drawer, "There's a template for a speech here. If you don't know how to write it, just refer to it. Don't embarrass our class."

"Got it." Luo Feng knew he didn't need it, but he still received it with both hands.

After leaving the office, the two of them took advantage of the break to relax at the track.

There were no other good pastimes on campus, so the two of them walked slowly around the track.

Ai Tingya stretched and said, "It's really uncomfortable sitting in the first row. I don't dare to move at all."

Luo Feng recalled how she was shivering from the cold just now. He took off his jacket and draped it over Ai Tingya's shoulders.

"Thank you." Ai Tingya was touched.

The two of them walked forward in silence and sweetness.

At this moment, a few boys ran over from the other side of the track. Halfway through, the boy in the lead retreated a little. He was pushed forward by the boys behind him to Ai Tingya.

"Classmate, what's the matter?" Ai Tingya tilted her head and asked.

"Classmate Ai Tingya, I like you!" The boy mustered his courage and shouted.

Ai Tingya subconsciously took half a step back.

The boy pursued relentlessly. "I've been paying attention to you for a long time. Be with me. I'll definitely make you happy!"

"But I don't like you." Ai Tingya's smile disappeared, leaving no room for him to fantasize.

The boy didn't expect to be rejected so bluntly. "You don't have to answer in a hurry. We can get to know each other…"

"There's no need, classmate. I'm in my third year of high school now. I'm focused on my studies! I think you're in the same grade as me. Study hard. You'll have everything in university." She lectured the other party sternly with a hint of anger on her face.

The boy looked very sad and left with his friends dejectedly.

Luo Feng stood at the side the entire time, acting like it had nothing to do with him.

It had to be said that Ai Tingya's stern appearance was a little cute. It was completely different from when she was with him.

Chapter 29: What's Your Relationship?

Ever since the news that Luo Feng was going to go on stage as the representative of the students spread, some of the third year boys seemed to have received some kind of encouragement and would appear at the entrance of Class 1 from time to time.

"Ai Tingya, I like you. Be my girlfriend!"

"I don't like you, thank you."

"I'll always be good to you. I'll do everything you say and will go anywhere you ask me to go!"

"Then please go back to your class."

"You are my goddess, my Destiny!"

"Please go back and study!"

Every day, a few groups of boys came to confess to Ai Tingya. The threshold of Class 1 was about to be trampled. No matter how good Ai Tingya's temper was, she could not stand it and hid out after class.

At night, at the orphanage.

Ads by Pubfuture

Ai Tingya lay on the bed, exhausted, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

Xiao Fei brought over a cup of hot water and placed it beside her. She said worriedly, "If you're tired, go to bed early. Don't study anymore tonight."

Ai Tingya wiped her face in frustration and said, "No! They wasted my time during the day. I have to work harder now to make up for it!"

Halfway through the book, she rested her head on Xiao Fei's shoulder and said, "Xiao Fei, what should I do? I've already told them that I don't like them anymore, but they still keep bothering me."

Xiao Fei said, "You're so pretty, it's normal for people to like you. Didn't Luo Feng speak up for you? Like 'she's my woman, please stay away from her!' or something like that?"

Ai Tingya said helplessly, "It's not like we're acting in a television drama. How can there be such embarrassing lines?"

"Then Luo Feng didn't even say anything as your boyfriend?" Xiao Fei covered her mouth in disbelief.

"… He… Isn't my boyfriend yet…" Ai Tingya whispered.

"Huh? He didn't confess to you?" Xiao Fei was surprised.

Ai Tingya shook her head and said nothing.

Xiao Fei had always thought that they were dating. They had met the parents of both parties after all. In the end, they had not even confirmed the most basic relationship? No wonder the boys in the school felt that they had a chance.

She grabbed Ai Tingya's shoulder and said seriously, "Xiao Ya, this won't do. With my many years of reading novels, Luo Feng's presence is much more useful than yours when you are being pestered."

"Really?" Ai Tingya didn't understand.

"Of course!" Xiao Fei affirmed, "Think about it, if everyone knew that you're Luo Feng's woman, they'd only go to Luo Feng if they wanted to snatch you, not harass you! You and Luo Feng are still lacking confirmation in your status!"

Xiao Fei's words brought Ai Tingya to her senses.

Luo Feng didn't expressly say that he wanted her to be with him even though she was very close to Luo Feng and they looked no different from a normal couple. Thinking about it carefully, Mother Luo's words were more direct than Luo Feng's.

"I like him. He likes me. Isn't that enough?" Ai Tingya asked Xiao Fei for help.

"If he doesn't tell you, how do you know that he likes you?" Xiao Fei was shocked. Countless plots from the novels appeared in her mind. "If one day he turns around and has a good relationship with another girl, what identity will you use to question him, girlfriend or classmate?"

"Luo Feng isn't that kind of person," Ai Tingya retorted.

She could clearly feel that Luo Feng liked her, which was different from how Luo Feng treated Xing Miaomiao.

"My silly Xiao Ya, a relationship without a confession is incomplete! If you like someone, you have to express it. Otherwise, why would humans have a mouth? Based on my many years of reading novels, many of the misunderstandings between the male and female protagonists were because their relationship was not clear, which gave the vicious female protagonist a chance…"

Xiao Fei eloquently recounted the love experiences she had summarized from romance novels, but Ai Tingya no longer listened.

Indeed, Luo Feng only watched from the sidelines, making her heart feel empty when those boys confessed to her. After Xiao Fei's guidance, she finally understood why there was a gap.

She quickly took out the prepared speech.

She wanted to confess to Luo Feng! Let him know that she really likes him! Let the whole school know!

…

Monday.

Luo Feng walked into the classroom as the bell rang and saw a boy from another class running out.

It did not take much to know that it was definitely someone who had come to confess to Ai Tingya.

He walked to his seat and saw Ai Tingya holding a love letter in distress. There was a big heart on the cover.

"Your love letter is like a novel, constantly being updated." joked Luo Feng.

Ai Tingya smirked and said, "Take a look at your own drawer."

Luo Feng reached out and touched it. A familiar feeling told him that his "novel" had also been updated. There were also love letters with big hearts drawn on them, and there were five of them waiting for him in the morning.

"Sigh, I have to think of a way to solve this." Luo Feng was troubled. If he was in his previous life, he would have been overjoyed to be loved by so many girls. Unfortunately, he was no longer that impetuous person.

Luo Feng only wanted to earn money, specifically by investing in Ai Tingya.

He shifted his gaze to Ai Tingya at the thought of this. He could clearly feel her gaze drifting away.

"Why are you dodging…"

"Please gather at the field to prepare for the flag-raising ceremony. Please gather at the field to prepare for the flag-raising ceremony."

The broadcast interrupted Luo Feng's question, and Ai Tingya flew out of the classroom like a breeze.

Luo Feng slowly fell behind his classmates and coincidentally bumped into Teacher Yu.

"Is the script ready?" Teacher Yu crossed her arms and asked in a rather serious tone.

"Yes." Luo Feng nodded.

"Show me."

"Teacher, you don't trust me anymore?"

Luo Feng took out his balled up paper. What was Teacher Yu thinking?

Ads by Pubfuture

Teacher Yu snatched the script and opened it with heartache. She nodded in satisfaction and said, "The Oath-Taking Rally is such an important event. Of course, I have to help you look out for it. Who knows what you will say in front of the entire school?" 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝒏𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡．𝙣𝒆𝙩

"Of course it's to raise morale" Luo Feng said matter-of-factly, "Or do you think I'm going to confess in front of everyone? Teacher Yu, I know my place."

"Heh." Teacher Yu seemed to have heard a joke. "Who knows? I wouldn't have been watching you all the time if you were half as reliable as Ai Tingya."

"I know, I know. Thank you for your careful guidance."

Ai Tingya, who was standing not far away, heard every word of Luo Feng's chat with Teacher Yu.

When she heard "confess in front of everyone", her grip on the script tightened.

What if Teacher Yu wanted to check on her script too? She would definitely be angered to death when she sees this, but she decided that she didn't want to back down anymore. It's always been Luo Feng getting close to her. This time, she has to show her courage. How else would she be fit to be with Luo Feng!

"Ai Tingya."

Suddenly, Teacher Yu called out to her.

Ai Tingya squeezed the script until it was deformed, her heart pounding non-stop.

Chapter 30: Ai Tingya's Confession!

Teacher Yu walked to Ai Tingya's side and looked at the deformed speech script.

"Relax, don't be nervous. Just treat the people below as cabbages." Teacher Yu patted her shoulder and comforted her.

"Okay, teacher." Ai Tingya squeezed out a smile.

"You can do it! I look forward to your performance!"

Teacher Yu made a pep talk gesture and walked to the end of the line.

Ai Tingya heaved a sigh of relief. Great, she had almost been discovered.

Everyone in the entire school lined up on the field in order. The flag-raising ceremony and the third-year Oath-Taking Rally were held together. The third-year students naturally stood under the platform.

The Principal vacated the stage after he finished speaking.

"Next, let's invite Ai Tingya of Year three Class 1 to speak as the student representative!" The student emcee said.

Ai Tingya took a deep breath and walked up to the rostrum with firm footsteps. The school leaders sat two meters behind her. They would have a row of stools and sit there every time there was an important meeting.

"Hello, everyone. I'm Ai Tingya from Class 1. The theme of my speech today is— Confidence." Ai Tingya's clear voice spread throughout the campus.

The students, who were originally sleepy from the principal's clichés, perked up a little when they saw a beautiful girl. They still heard clichés.

"First and second-year students have to attend this Oath-Taking Rally even though it is for the third year students. They repeat those words over and over again every year."

"Can you let us go back to sleep? I'm really tired…"

"How boring. Outstanding students are indeed the same. They more or less have a pedantic smell."

"So pretty without a soul. Where's the interesting soul?"

The more bored the students were, the more satisfied the teachers were.

Teacher Yu nodded in praise and said to Luo Feng beside her, "Look at the theme Ai Tingya chose. It fits the situation of the third year of high school. No matter how difficult it is, you have to believe in yourself. Just bury your head and charge forward. Learn more from her."

"Yes, yes, yes" Luo Feng's ears were starting to get calluses. His mother said the same.

"If you do well, don't be arrogant. If you do badly, don't be discouraged. Be confident that everything will be fine." Teacher Yu was extremely satisfied with this theme. She liked Ai Tingya no matter how she looked at her.

Ai Tingya was not disturbed by the whispers below and took a deep breath on the stage.

"Once, I felt like a flower petal that had fallen into the soil. The heavy weight of life ruthlessly rolled over me, pressing me down until I couldn't raise my head."

"In the past, I felt very inferior. I lowered my head when I walked and never dared to look anyone in the eye. I didn't have any friends in school because I wasn't good at socializing. I was alone no matter where I went. I could only study all day and make myself look busy. I thought that I wouldn't have to envy others this way."

"But my inferiority complex is like an inflated armor. The more I want to whitewash it, the more the armor restricts me."

The students below the stage were all moved.

Someone as beautiful as Ai Tingya was actually unable to extricate herself from her inferiority complex, let alone ordinary students. It was as if they were the ones mentioned in the speech.

The students of Class 1 also felt embarrassed. They wished they could rush up and be friends with Ai Tingya now.

Teacher Yu nodded in satisfaction seeing the students reflecting.

"Teacher Yu, your class's Ai Tingya is indeed different."

At this moment, a man with a big belly walked to Teacher Yu's side with his hands behind his back. He pointed at the stage and said. "I remember that Ai Tingya was always in the top few in your class for the exam. She only performed poorly once. You have to encourage her. Also, pay attention to the environment of your class. Don't let anything other than studying affect the child's physical and mental development."

"Alright, Vice Principal Liu. I'll definitely talk to them about it." Teacher Yu said humbly.

Vice Principal Liu was famous for cherishing talents in the school. When he heard that Ai Tingya did not have any friends, he was worried that the learning environment would affect Ai Tingya's results, so he specially came over to remind her.

If the conditions allowed, he could even assign a few people to be friends with Ai Tingya. Everything was fine as long as it did not affect their results.

"I used to think that my world was only black and white, and that my life would be like my orphanage. The word 'alone' would last forever."

"Until someone appeared in my life…"

According to tradition, the name of an elder should appear at this time, or the teacher who reviewed the manuscript would insert the name of a leader in school to promote the school's image.

Anyway, not many people knew what was going on.

Teacher Yu was overjoyed hearing this. She usually took good care of Ai Tingya and kept all the subsidies for her after all. Could it be that Ai Tingya suddenly wanted to give her a surprise?

"I want to thank that person, thank you Luo Feng, thank you for allowing me to see more colors in life!" 𝚋𝚎ｄｎｏ𝚟𝚎ｌ.ｎ𝚎𝚝

The third-year students were in an uproar as soon as the name was spoken. Teacher Yu felt as if she had fallen from the sky to the ground. Then, her mind went numb, and she did not dare to look at Vice Principal Liu's expression.

Ai Tingya continued. "Thank you, Luo Feng. Thank you for seeing me in the crowd!"

Her beautiful eyes sparkled, and her gaze was like a fluttering butterfly, accurately landing on Luo Feng's shoulder in the crowd.

The two of them looked at each other. He still felt that Ai Tingya's beauty was shocking even though he had seen it countless times. She was so beautiful that he couldn't take his eyes off her.

Unknowingly, his girl had become confident and brave. She could already express herself boldly in front of so many people.

Everyone in the third year had already heard of Luo Feng's name. They might only meet a genius who scored full marks in all subjects once in their lives. Everyone looked at Class 1, wanting to see what kind of face Luo Feng had on.

Class 1 stared at Luo Feng as if they had seen a ghost. Lei Jin gritted his teeth in envy.

At this moment, Teacher Yu felt that something was wrong. Her face was covered in sweat as she said to Luo Feng: "I think she should be more than just thanking you for your help in your studies…"

Luo Feng didn't answer. His entire focus was on Ai Tingya.

Vice Principal Liu, who was standing on the other side, had a dark expression, as if he could carry the guillotine out in the next second.

"Please, Ai Tingya, I still want to live for two more years." Teacher Yu would never have thought that Ai Tingya would mess around. She kept praying in her heart, hoping that Ai Tingya would stop.

Unfortunately, Ai Tingya only had eyes for Luo Feng and couldn't hear the other people's inner monologues.

She put down the script and said to Luo Feng affectionately: "Thank you Luo Feng, thank you for making me more confident, letting me know that I'm also worthy of being liked, thus making me a better person"

"In the past, I felt so inferior that I didn't dare to say it out loud. Today, I want to tell you that I like you. I like you very, very much. It won't change with time and will be for eternity!"

The students below the stage fell silent for a moment after she was done before erupting with earth-shattering cheers and applause!

Chapter 31: What I Need to Cherish Most Now Is Time!

"Oh my god, I'm going to cry! This is the most touching confession I've ever heard!"

"This is the Oath-Taking Rally if I remember correctly. Forget it, who cares. Ai Tingya, we'll support you. Be happy with Luo Feng!"

"You're so awesome. I want to become better for the person I love!"

"Boohoo, it's not easy. I want to be good friends with her!"

The entire school was extremely excited. They were happier than if they were the ones being confessed to.

On the other hand, the students of Class 1 who were most familiar with Ai Tingya widened their eyes in shock, as if it was their first time meeting her.

Lei Jin rubbed his teeth in envy. "I also want to fall in love with a wife who's as awesome as Ai Tingya!"

Teacher Yu's entire body turned cold just as the students' blood was boiling.

She felt that her teaching career was coming to an end.

"Vice Principal Liu, this, I can explain…" Teacher Yu said submissively.

Deputy Liu smiled sinisterly and gritted his teeth. "I know that Teacher Yu is eloquent, but it's impossible for you to turn black into white. It's better for you to save your class's outstanding students and explain to them in front of the entire school's teachers and students!"

Teacher Yu was on the brink of tears. How could she have expected such a situation? "Yes, yes, yes. I'll definitely reflect on myself. I'll definitely criticize her when she comes down."

"Do you think self-reflection is enough? Look at the students. Can they still focus on their studies? They will think about love every day. Hurry up and get another student to turn the situation around!" Vice Principal Liu said seriously.

"Oh… Hmm…" Teacher Yu didn't have time to react, so she followed Vice Principal Liu's words and urged Luo Feng, "Hurry up and go up, share the learning method"

When Vice Principal Liu saw Luo Feng, he felt a bit better: "That's right! Try to make the students fall in love with studies. You look like a steady person, don't disappoint the teacher."

Teacher Yu realized too late that sending Luo Feng up would cause even more trouble!

However, she could only watch as Luo Feng walked onto the rostrum.

Luo Feng went up from the left while Ai Tingya hurriedly left from the right.

This girl had just confessed in an imposing manner. Why was she afraid now that he was here?

Luo Feng stood on the stage and introduced himself: "Hello everyone, my name is Luo Feng."

The faces of the leaders behind him were blank. One could even hear an obvious intake of breath below the stage.

Vice Principal Liu felt like he couldn't wrap his head around it and asked. "Teacher Yu, what did he just say? He said his name was Luo Feng, where have I heard this name before?"

"The person Ai Tingya confessed to is Luo Feng…" Teacher Yu answered honestly.

?

When Vice Principal Liu heard this name, he almost fainted. This year's Oath-Taking Rally would really become the biggest joke since the establishment of the school!

"Why didn't you say so earlier?!"

"I… You called him up before I could react, I…" Teacher Yu felt wronged.

"He will talk about learning methods, right? Tell me he will talk about learning methods?!" Vice Principal Liu growled in a low voice.

"… I… I think so…"

The two of them were sweating as they nervously looked at Luo Feng on the stage.

Luo Feng smiled and said unhurriedly: "Today's theme of my speech is… Cherish."

Ads by Pubfuture

"I once had a long dream. I dreamed that my parents had died early and I was plagued by illness. I was lying in bed at the age of 30 and couldn't move. That dream was extremely real. It was so real that my internal organs hurt when I woke up."

"In my dream, I was extremely regretful. I regretted not being filial to my parents when they were still alive. I was filled with regret on how I had an incurable illness. I used to blame the heavens and everyone around me. I hated the unfairness of the heavens and the cruelty of the world."

"Fortunately, I woke up from my dream. Everything is still the same before the nightmare. The things that I need to cherish still exist."

At this point, Luo Feng's gaze passed Xing Miaomiao and landed on Ai Tingya, who was at the back of the line.

"I think the thing I should cherish right now is— Time."

Luo Feng purposely dragged his words, causing the crowd to boo.

"You scumbag!" One of the girls below shouted, eager to defend Ai Tingya.

In the eyes of girls, it was indeed too much to ask a girl to confess in public to a boy who did not respond directly.

Luo Feng didn't mind and continued, "Youth is fleeting. There are only a few months left until the third year of high school. We should seize the remaining time to study hard and get into the university that we like. At least I haven't changed my mind yet."

When Ai Tingya heard this, she lowered her head in disappointment. She had been too rash and childish just now.

When the girls in the class saw him like this, their hearts ached as they surrounded her and chatted with her to comfort her.

Luo Feng continued. "As for my girl, I hope you can wait for me! I'm still useless. I have nothing else other than getting first place in the entire grade."

"But I won't keep you waiting for long as a man."

"After the college entrance examination, I'll stand in front of you with the top scholar's certificate and acceptance letter. I hope that you'll allow me to accompany you for the rest of your life, so please cherish your time too. Let's hold hands and walk into the university campus together!"

Ai Tingya covered her mouth and was so touched that tears welled up in her eyes below the stage. "I'll wait for you." She mouthed silently.

"Well said! Everyone must learn from Student Luo Feng and focus on learning!"

The leader on the stage was the first to stand up and Oath-Taking Rally finally looked like it. He had to stop him from talking. He did not know what shocking words he would say if he continued.

"Good job, brother!"

"A real responsible man!"

"My blood is boiling now. Let me go back and study now!"

The students waved their hands and shouted their goals, for love, for family, and for themselves.

Teacher Yu, who was also a female, was moved to the point of speechlessness. However, she couldn't agree with Luo Feng's words with Vice Principal Liu standing beside her. "Unbelievable, simply unbelievable! Vice Principal Liu, don't worry, I'll definitely criticize them!"

"Criticize? Criticize who?" Vice Principal Liu asked in confusion.

"Hmm… Them for disrupting the Oath-Taking Rally?" Teacher Yu asked tentatively.

Vice Principal Liu raised his head and laughed unexpectedly. He waved his hand and said, "There's no disruption. Look at how enthusiastic the students are. They've all found a clear target. This is much more useful than big, empty words."

Teacher Yu smiled apologetically: "You're right! Look at Luo Feng and Ai Tingya… The two of them…"

"The students are at the most crucial moment of their breakthrough. Don't let some insignificant things affect their state of mind. Moreover, they've already said that they will get together after the college entrance examination. I believe Luo Feng will keep his word."

"Yes, yes, yes." Teacher Yu agreed on the surface, but she rolled her eyes in her heart.

What you believe is Luo Feng talking about being the top scorer in the exams, hehe.

She looked at Vice Principal Liu's happy back, then at Luo Feng on the stage and couldn't help but to grin.

This kid was very smart. No wonder he could capture Ai Tingya.

However, if he could become the top scorer… Hehehe, just thinking about it made her a little excited.

Chapter 32: Use Your Body to Pay Your Debt, I Won't Take Anything Else

"Run, continue running." Luo Feng kept panting.

He hurriedly went to look for Ai Tingya as soon as the Oath-Taking Rally ended. Unexpectedly, she ran away like a mouse seeing a cat when she saw him. It was not easy for him to corner her.

Luo Feng opened his arms and trapped Ai Tingya in a corner.

"I won't eat you, why are you running?" Luo Feng laughed.

Ai Tingya's face was as red as a tomato. Her eyes were darting around in panic and she didn't dare to look Luo Feng in the eye. She has been too bold on stage just now thinking about it now.

"Do you know how many brain cells I lost to make up for your confession? How are you going to make it up to me?" Luo Feng leaned close to Ai Tingya and blew into her ear.

Ai Tingya felt that she was about to melt from the heat and could not say a word.

She then took out an envelope from her pocket and shyly stuffed it into Luo Feng's arms.

When he opened it, there was a stack of brand new hundred-dollar bills, and they had sequential serial numbers…

Luo Feng shook the money and hesitated. "You're going to use this to compensate me?"

As expected of Ai Tingya. She was indeed a pragmatic person.

"No…" Ai Tingya said softly, "This is to pay you back. I've recorded every sum of money you spent on me previously. Give me some time for the rest…"

Luo Feng weighed the banknotes in his hand. There were at least 3,000 yuan, which meant that she had probably taken out all of her university tuition money. Ai Tingya was actually running around with so much cash, wasn't she wasn't afraid of losing it?

"What do you mean?" Luo Feng was a bit angry. Ten minutes ago, she was confessing her love in front of the entire school. Why was she trying to settle the score now?

"I… I hope that we can start on equal footing. I don't like you because you spend money on me." Ai Tingya said stubbornly. "If you don't accept this money, I can't like you without any distractions."

"But the money is yours to begin with."

Luo Feng's heart ached as he looked at the stubborn and silly girl in front of him. He thought back to his previous life. Ai Tingya still kept him alive with money even though there was no hope for his illness.

If he really had to calculate, he should be the one who owed her more.

"What do you mean?" Ai Ting Ya didn't understand Luo Feng's words.

"I mean that we're already dating, so my things are yours. But… if you really feel bad…"

Luo Feng smiled brightly. He held the back of Ai Tingya's head with one hand and kissed her lips. They were as soft as two pieces of jelly.

Ai Tingya was petrified on the spot. She was so nervous that she forgot to breathe. After a short moment of shock, she gently pushed Luo Feng away and gasped for air.

"If you have to repay the debt, then use your body to pay. I won't accept anything else." Luo Feng licked his lips evilly and said.

"You!" Ai Tingya stomped her feet in embarrassment and said angrily, "What if someone sees us?"

"What's wrong with that? The whole school knows about our relationship." Luo Feng shrugged nonchalantly.

He held Ai Tingya's hand and put the money on it. "I'll accompany you to deposit the money after school. Then, we'll go to my house for dinner. My mother said that she wants to thank you properly."

Ai Tingya opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but when she looked up, she saw Luo Feng's handsome smile with an irresistible gentleness. After thinking about it, she decided to forget about it. There was still a long way to go, and she still has a long time to repay the debt after all.

…

In the evening, on a street of food stalls.

Tables and chairs were lined up on both sides of the road. Shops with good business began to serve customers. Smokey woks crackled, and the fragrance spread to every corner of the street.

Mother Luo led the three of them along the street without looking sideways. She was wearing a peacock green suede dress with small pearls around her neck. Coupled with a pair of brown leather shoes, she walked with gusto as if she was going to perform on stage in the next second.

Luo Feng felt that his mother was very high-spirited today. He whispered to his father. "Dad, did mom pick up money from the ground today? Why is she so happy?"

"Your mother has been showing off for a few days now that you've done well." Father Luo revealed the information in a low voice. "We're going to her best friend's place for a meal now. It's normal for her to be fully armed."

"Ah…" Luo Feng seemed to have some impression of her. "The auntie who has a son who works overseas? I think I heard mum mention her before."

"That's her."

"What are you two talking about?" Mother Luo turned around sharply.

She immediately held Ai Tingya's arm and roped in her as her teammate when she saw her husband and son talking bad about her.

"Tingya, even though this place doesn't look like much, it's really filled with crouching tigers and hidden dragons. Many chefs' culinary skills are not inferior to those five-star chefs. Eat freely later and don't stand on the ceremony with Auntie." Mother Luo said proudly. 𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒐𝙧𝒈

Ai Tingya smiled and said, "Thank you, Auntie."

Then, the four of them stopped at the entrance of a small restaurant.

The restaurant was called Ruyi Restaurant. It used the most popular sliding glass door at that time. The aluminum alloy frame was dull and the floor inside was yellow. The shop looked a little old.

Mother Luo brushed her clothes and walked in with a smile. Then, a little girl with twin ponytails came out of the kitchen with a pile of dishes in her hands.

"What would you like to order?" The little girl hurriedly put down her bowl and chopsticks and welcomed them warmly.

The four of them sat down. Mother Luo was not in a hurry to look at the menu. She asked. "Where's your lady boss?"

"Uh… Our lady boss went out for a beauty treatment. She might not come to the shop today. Do you… Do you have some business with her?" The little girl asked curiously.

Mother Luo's expression darkened as she pushed the menu forward. "You guys take care of it." Then, she got up and went to the bathroom.

Luo Feng naturally wanted to take the menu. However, Father Luo pressed down on his hand and pointed straight at Mother Luo.

He seemed to be hinting. Your mother is unhappy. It's safer to let Xiao Ai order.

The father and son would most likely be the target if Mother Luo had nowhere to vent her anger. They would be scolded no matter what they did.

Luo Feng understood and passed the menu to Ai Tingya: "Let's order what you like first."

"What's wrong with Auntie? Is she unhappy?"

"Don't worry about her. Hurry up and start ordering."

"Uncle, what do you like to eat?"

"Don't worry about me. Order what you like."

"Luo Feng, what about you?"

Ads by Pubfuture

"Don't worry about me. I like what you like."

"Do you have any dietary preferences? Anything you do not like to eat?"

"Don't worry about us. Just order."

Luo Feng and his son didn't dare to voice their opinions, so they let Ai Tingya make the decision.

Ai Tingya was also confused. She ordered a few affordable dishes and added a fish with the shop assistant's recommendation. She was done with it just like that.

After a while, Mother Luo came out of the bathroom. The unhappiness on her face did not fade at all, like a balloon that was constantly being inflated.

Then, the shop assistant served the first dish of chili boiled meat.

Mother Luo looked at Luo Feng angrily: "Little Feng, how many times have I told you to eat less chili!"

Luo Feng felt bitter.

Here it comes, here it comes.

Chapter 33: There Can Only Be One Feeding Officer!

"How many times have I told you! Don't eat so much chili, eating light is better for your health!" Luo Mu took the chance to teach Luo Feng a lesson to vent her anger.

Luo Feng was already prepared. He leaned on Ai Tingya and said, "Tingya ordered it."

"I'm sorry, Auntie. I didn't know you didn't like spicy food." Ai Tingya apologized innocently.

Mother Luo was like a mute cannon in this situation. It did not explode even after the fuse was burned.

She put on a smile and said, "Tingya, you like to eat spicy food? It's good to eat spicy food. Girls who eat spicy food are forthright and the heat can expel moisture. Our family likes to eat spicy food, but Little Feng can't take too much. He's more prone to getting heaty. You have to keep an eye on him in the future and teach him a lesson if he doesn't listen."

"I see." Ai Tingya smiled too. "I thought it was cold, so I ordered something spicy. The rest is very light." 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝐧𝗲𝘁

"You're so thoughtful. Hurry up and eat." Mother Luo picked a large piece of meat and placed it in Ai Tingya's bowl.

The father and son heaved a sigh of relief at the same time. It seemed that they had escaped a calamity. Mother Luo's anger had probably dissipated since Ai Tingya, the fire extinguisher, was around.

The dishes were served one after another. White oil lettuce tripe, assorted chowder, squirrel mandarin fish, bitter gourd eggs and a bowl of pork ribs soup. Ai Tingya ordered a table full of different tastes which Mother Luo praised endlessly.

"Tingya, eat more meat. Look at how thin you are." Mother Luo couldn't care less about herself and kept picking up meat for Ai Tingya.

"A balanced diet is the most important. Try the stewed vegetables, you'll have both meat and vegetables." Luo Feng also only cared about Ai Tingya.

At this moment, two pairs of chopsticks picked up a piece of fish at the same time.

"Mom, I want to give this piece of meat to Tingya."

"What a coincidence. Mom thinks so too."

Both mother and son wanted to enjoy the joy of feeding. Neither of them allowed the other to outshine the other. They picked up the meat at the same time and placed it in Ai Tingya's bowl.

Ai Tingya had an obedient appearance and was filled with reverence for food. Her face was filled with a blissful smile as she ate. Those who fed her would naturally feel happiness and pride.

Luo Feng glanced at his mother. How could someone still want to snatch the position of a feeder? He was the only one who should feed Ai Tingya regardless of whether it was in the past or in the future!

Mother Luo had the same thought opposite her.

The mother and son secretly competed just like that.

"This pig liver is very delicious. There's no smell at all. You can supplement iron intake with it!"

"The stir-fried vegetables are not bad. It was cooked very well. Tingya, eat more."

"You can't ignore protein either! You like both eggs and lean meat, right?"

"Fish is also rich in protein. It's sweet and sour, but not greasy. Eat quickly!"

The two of them instantly became masters of nutrition. Ai Tingya did not even touch her chopsticks, and a small mountain was piled up in her bowl.

Luo Feng saw that there was no more space on the plate, so he picked up some meat and fed it to Ai Tingya directly. He didn't believe that his mother could still compete with him like this.

"Tingya, eat this."

Mother Luo took another bowl and slowly filled it with soup before handing it to Ai Tingya, not to be outdone.

Ai Tingya just sat there. Her mouth and hands were busy and she became the busiest person at the dining table.

"Auntie, you guys eat too. Don't just give me food. My bowl can't hold anymore." Ai Tingya could only persuade the two of them like this, hoping that they would give her a chance to pick up her chopsticks.

Father Luo seemed like an outsider who had nothing to do with this while the three of them were engaged in a heated discussion. He was happy to have peace and quiet. It did not matter as long as he was not used as a target to vent his anger.

He reached out his chopsticks and realized that all the good meat on the table had been picked clean. There were only bean sprouts left in the chili boiled meat. The belly meat of the squirrel fish had been emptied, and even the tenderest vegetable was in Ai Tingya's bowl.

"Hey, hey, hey, you two are going overboard. Xiao Ai can choose whatever she wants to eat. What if she doesn't like the food you gave her?" Father Luo was "forced" to stand up and speak up for her.

One of them would starve to death while the other would bloat to death if they continued this farce.

"Mom, look at you. Ting Ya was so overwhelmed by your passion that she didn't dare to move." said Luo Feng.

"You picked all the vegetables for Tingya. Her body is so weak. She has to eat more meat!" Mother Luo said.

"Let Xiao Ai eat by herself. We're family. She can eat whatever she likes." Father Luo said.

Ai Tingya nodded subtly, expressing her agreement. The dishes in the bowl were enough for two meals. It was still a mystery if she could finish them or not.

Mother Luo took the opportunity to take her first bite seeing that most of the good dishes on the plate had been given to Tingya.

Luo Feng was already starving. He lowered his head and found out that Ai Tingya had transferred the meat from her bowl to his side. Her black eyes were filled with the words 'Help me eat some'.

The family was happy and the atmosphere at the table was very harmonious. It was so harmonious that Mother Luo forgot her main purpose for coming here.

If this meal was finished just like that, they would be very happy other than Ai Tingya, who was stuffed to the brim.

At this moment, a fragrance blew in from outside.

Immediately after, a woman in bright green clothes walked in.

The room was filled with guests. The woman immediately saw Mother Luo and called out in a high-pitched voice. "Xiaomin, what brings you here today?"

Mother Luo shivered and put down her chopsticks as if she was facing a great enemy. She stood up like a peacock and smiled. "Chunhua, you're back. I'm here to give you some business of course."

"It's been a long time. Your taste has improved."

"No, you're younger too. You've lost a few wrinkles at the corners of your eyes."

The seemingly harmonious conversation was filled with gunpowder.

"Yo! Isn't this Xiao Feng, right? It's been a few years since we last met, and you've grown so big. Do you still remember Auntie Zhang? I bought you candy when you were young!" Zhang Chunhua said warmly.

She looked at Luo Feng's handsome appearance and couldn't help but stare at him.

"Hello Auntie Zhang." Luo Feng greeted her obediently.

Ai Tingya put down her chopsticks and wondered if she should address her too.

Mother Luo's main purpose for coming today was to show off her son. She was about to start praising Luo Feng seeing Zhang Chunhua taking the initiative to talk to him.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Chunhua suddenly took out her phone and said, "Aiya, it's time to talk to my son on the phone. Little Min, wait for me for a while."

After saying that, she took out the latest flip phone and made a call in front of Mother Luo.

Mother Luo sniffled. She knew that her best friend was going to start showing off her son, who was working overseas, again. She rolled her eyes in her heart.

Even though the two of them were about the same age, Mother Luo got married later than her peers, so much so that Zhang Chunhua's son was already in elementary school while Luo Feng was still holding onto his milk bottle. It could be said that he fell behind by one step.

When Mother Luo was showing off her son's handicrafts from kindergarten, Zhang Chunhua was already showing off her son's English scores. When Mother Luo showed off her son's middle school exam scores, Zhang Chunhua was showing off her son's college acceptance letter.

Furthermore, Luo Feng's grades in high school were mediocre, so Mother Luo had been holding back her anger.

She had specially come all the way here to eat today so that she could avenge her previous humiliation!

Chapter 34: Hello Auntie, Goodbye Auntie!

"Hey! Son, what are you doing?"

"Mom misses you! What? You miss Mom too? You sent me oral liquid again."

"Aiya, you're spending money recklessly again. The effect of that oral liquid is indeed better than in China. My waist doesn't feel sore anymore after drinking it, and my hair has turned black."

"I know you are filial. Your father and I are fine at home. You have to take care of your health when you're outside. Alright, alright, let's not talk about it anymore. Go ahead with your work. I won't disturb you from work."

Zhang Chunhua shouted at the top of her lungs, as if the phone transmission signal was unstable and needed to be made up for with her voice.

The people sitting in the small restaurant were basically regular customers who came for the taste. They had heard a little about Zhang Chunhua's son's situation.

"Lady Boss, you're so lucky. Your son works overseas and talks to her on the phone everyday. It'll be great if my child is still so capable and filial in the future."

"That's right. Just look at the lady boss's state. She's really a few years younger since the child is so obedient!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. In the past, I even met the boss's son when I came to eat. He's a very supportive young man. He's very good other than being a little short."

"If he develops outside for a few years and marries a foreign wife, the lady boss will really enjoy life."

In the 2000s, foreigners in the country were like precious animals. The number of heads turning when they walked on the streets was also 100%. The rapid development of foreign countries was comparable to a paradise filled with gold. The Chinese were filled with yearning for foreign countries.

Zhang Chunhua felt her face light up. She put down her phone and sat beside Mother Luo, as if she had just received her award.

She held Mother Luo's hand. "Xiao Min, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming? My son bought me a lot of beauty supplements. Bring some back later. It's very good for your health."

"That's good. I want to compare the foreign products against our national products." Mother Luo climbed up the pole without any politeness.

The shipping fee alone was quite expensive for overseas items. Zhang Chunhua was just being polite. It was still a little painful to give it away.

She quickly changed the topic to Luo Feng. "Little Feng is about to take the college entrance exam, right? How are your results? Which university are you planning to go to?"

"I'm studying at No.1 Middle School." Luo Feng answered obediently.

"Oh my, I heard recently that your No.1 Middle School has a child who scored full marks in all subjects. Are you familiar with him? It's very useful to learn from him!"

Luo Feng said indifferently, "Auntie, the person you're talking about is me."

"…You?" Zhang Chunhua was shocked. She had heard before that Luo Feng was a dabbler with average grades. She even encouraged Mother Luo to take care of him. How did he suddenly become the number one in all subjects?

When Mother Luo saw Zhang Chunhua's incredulous expression, it was as if fireworks had exploded in her heart.

She immediately continued, "I've asked the teacher. She said that with Little Feng's results, good universities will fight for him. It won't be a problem to cover tuition and living expenses with the scholarship."

"Is that so… Haha, then keep it up…" Zhang Chunhua shriveled, not wanting to speak anymore.

Luo Feng asked curiously: "Speaking of which, which country does Big Brother work in?"

"The best America!"

"Oh— " Luo Feng snickered. "There's a time difference in the U.S., so it should be around six in the morning. Getting up so early to go to work must be tough for him."

Luo Feng had only met Zhang Chunhua's son a few times and called him Big brother.

Zhang Chunhua smiled awkwardly and put her phone back into her pocket. She couldn't say that she was just putting on an act. International calls were so expensive after all. How could she call every day?

She felt like Luo Feng seemed to have seen through something, so she didn't dare look him in the eye.

"Speaking of which, your son has been working for two years. Has he gotten a girlfriend overseas? When is he planning to get married?" Mother Luo asked again.

Zhang Chunhua's son's marriage might have been her biggest worry recently. She had even sent her son a few photos in the past. They were all girls she had carefully selected. They had good looks, figures, and figures. However, her son did not like any of them, causing the introducers to be unwilling to introduce anymore.

However, the two places were thousands of miles apart, so Zhang Chunhua could only worry alone. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝐧𝗼𝐯𝗲𝗹．𝐧𝐞𝘁

"Young people have to be busy with their careers first. There's no hurry. Don't talk about finding a partner in front of the children, lest they get distracted."

Zhang Chunhua wanted to skip the topic of finding a partner, but suddenly saw a girl sitting next to Luo Feng.

Zhang Chunhua was busy showing off just now, so she didn't notice. The girl is quite pretty now that she's taken a closer look. Her sitting posture is quiet and proper, and her dressing is neat and clean. She was mumbling in her heart that she didn't know Luo Feng had a sister.

"Is this your relative's child?" Zhang Chunhua asked. She felt that this girl was very affable. If she was the right age, it would be good to introduce her son to her.

Mother Luo had been waiting for this moment! She said proudly, "She's Xiao Feng's girlfriend. Her name is Ai Tingya. Tingya, this is Auntie Zhang."

"Hello, Auntie Zhang." Ai Tingya stood up and greeted her very humbly and politely.

Zhang Chunhua's eyes widened in shock. "They're in their third year of high school. You don't even worry about puppy love?"

Mother Luo covered her mouth and laughed. "They can improve together. It's all thanks to Tingya that Xiao Feng was able to get first place. I came to your place today to thank her. It's as delicious as ever."

Zhang Chunhua was petrified on the spot.

What kind of good luck did Luo Feng have to be able to pick up a goddess as his wife and improve his grades while dating? Why didn't his son encounter such a good thing?

"Ahaha… Congratulations then. In that case, I won't disturb your family's meal. I'll leave first."

Zhang Chunhua did not want to stay a second longer. The happiness of this family was too dazzling.

She went into the kitchen like a gust of wind.

Mother Luo was extremely happy and hummed a tune happily.

"Good son, you've finally done well. Did you see her expression when you talked about the phone call just now? She was so flustered that she didn't dare to look at you." Mother Luo held her stomach and laughed hysterically.

"Mom, lower your voice and save Auntie Zhang some face."

"If she dares to pretend, then she shouldn't be afraid of being exposed. Hahaha, it was worth it to come today!"

"Alright, is it really so exaggerated?"

His mother was happy, and Luo Feng's heart was at ease. For such a long time, he had always heard his mother praise Ai Tingya, but today, she actually said about how good his son was.

He saw his mother holding Ai Tingya's hand and saying earnestly just as he was feeling smug, "Tingya, you're really our family's lucky star. Only good things have been happening to our family one after another ever since you came. Auntie really likes you."

Alright, the credit still belonged to Ai Tingya.

Luo Feng placed his plate on the other side and watched as Mother Luo picked up another bunch of food for Ai Tingya.

Ai Ting Ya felt the food piling up to her throat. She burped and turned to Luo Feng for help.

Luo Feng smiled wickedly and pointed at his face as if to say, "You owe me again."

Chapter 35: Meeting Love Around The Corner, Wait for My Good News!

After dinner, Mother Luo took the supplements that her best friend had given her and happily held her husband's arm as they went home.

Luo Feng was responsible for sending Ai Tingya back to the orphanage.

He held Ai Tingya's hand and walked slowly along the road towards the orphanage.

Ai Tingya held her round stomach and inched around in pain.

Luo Feng held her hand as they sat by the roadside. His heart ached as he said, "If you can't eat, then don't eat. My mom won't say anything." After saying that, he also burped. The portion that he helped to eat might have burst Ai Tingya's stomach open.

"Auntie will have a bad impression of me if I don't eat it." Ai Tingya said aggrievedly.

Luo Feng was amused and asked the obvious, "Why do you want to create such a good impression? Do you want to marry into our family?"

Ai Tingya slapped him and scolded jokingly, "Annoying person! Do you want me to say it? Who said that you want to walk the future with me? Don't you know what I mean?"

"Spare me, spare me. I said it. I know you want to build a good relationship with your mother-in-law. I'll help you in the future, okay?"

"Hey, who's your wife?" Ai Tingya pouted cutely.

The two of them sat on a bench by the road and leaned against each other. They were like a sweet couple, enjoying the time that only belonged to the two of them. 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝑛𝘰𝑣𝑒𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Across the street was a bright billboard with a movie poster of the Titanic. It was the classic scene of Jack and Ruth standing at the bow.

It was an old movie that had been re-released. They had heard of its reputation even if they had not seen it before. The classic theme songs had been a favorite music of the malls for a period of time.

Luo Feng noticed that Ai Tingya was staring at the poster in a daze.

For children in orphanages, amusement parks, zoos, and movie theaters should be the most unfamiliar terms. Consumer entertainment was quite a luxury for them.

Thinking of this, Luo Feng's heart ached.

He took Ai Tingya's hand and said, "Let's go watch a movie since we're already here."

Mother Luo went to school to pick them up today for the meal. They had skipped the evening self-study and so it was a waste of a good opportunity to go back like this.

Ai Tingya was overjoyed for a moment. Her eyes shone with yearning as she looked at the poster. However, it was only for a moment. She thought for a moment and said, "Forget it. I can't sit still. I'd better take a walk."

"Student Ai Tingya, don't you know that exercising immediately after a meal makes your stomach sag? Sitting quietly for a while is the right thing to do." Luo Feng pulled her towards the cinema without any explanation.

Ai Tingya couldn't dissuade him, so she could only stand aside and watch Luo Feng buy the tickets.

His luck wasn't bad. The next movie will start in ten minutes. Luo Feng bought two bottles of soda and a large bucket of popcorn.

The two of them walked into the hall. The big screen was already showing advertisements.

Luo Feng held Ai Tingya's hand and found a spot in the dark. A boy sat down alone not far from them.

Love movies were basically watched by couples. It was just like how eating hotpot alone could easily attract the pity of others. If one was alone, one would inevitably be looked at twice.

Ai Tingya looked sideways and was attracted by the other facilities in the theater.

She couldn't sit still and touched her left and right like a curious baby.

"First time watching a movie?" Luo Feng asked.

Ai Tingya nodded. "The orphanage organized an open-air movie once during the New Year. This is the first time I've come to the cinema."

Some charity organizations will arrange entertainment activities for the orphanage, but it's still rare to watch a movie outdoors in the winter. Luo Feng could imagine the children of the orphanage huddled together and squatting in front of the curtain expectantly.

Their expressions might be the same as Ai Tingya's, as if they were waiting for a new world to open.

Luo Feng felt a bit sad. He handed over the popcorn and said, "Try it."

The rich milky fragrance tempted Ai Tingya. Even though she had just eaten until she was bloated, she could not resist the temptation. She grabbed two and threw them into her mouth. "They're so sweet!"

She grabbed a handful and ate a few before saying worriedly. "I can't eat much. It's a pity. My stomach will swell after drinking soda."

Luo Feng looked at Ai Tingya, who was both happy and worried. He patted her head and said, "Eat as much as you can. Next time, I'll bring you over if you want to eat. Anytime."

Ai Tingya pouted and said, "Once is enough. Don't waste money."

As she spoke, she grabbed two more handfuls and stuffed them into her mouth, forgetting about her bloatedness.

The movie started and everyone fell silent.

Luo Feng yawned in boredom. He had experienced the highest level of Dolby Cinema before, so this movie was no different from an open-air movie.

Moreover, romance films were too dull for him.

He tilted his head and stared at Ai Tingya's profile. He realized that she was completely immersed in the movie plot. She would be happy when Jack won the lottery. She would be sad about Ruth's troubled family marriage.

So much so that she forgot to retract her hand that was holding the popcorn.

Luo Feng took the hand that was in the popcorn bucket, carefully wiped off the popcorn crumbs on it and gently held it.

In the dark, it was most suitable for couples to hold hands.

At this moment, the boy who had been noticed by Ai Tingya held his phone. The lit screen stopped at the text message interface.

"Sorry, I'm not coming." The rejection was simple and cruel.

The boy held two buckets of popcorn with a sad face and took two bites as if he was taking revenge. He had originally asked his goddess out to get closer to her, but who knew that she would stand him up? He had treated her so well in vain. Even if he spent all the money he saved by eating instant noodles, he would not be able to buy her heart.

"Sigh…" The boy let out a long sigh.

The romance movie on the big screen was also a form of mockery for him. He wanted to leave, but he felt that the ticket price was too expensive and it was not worth it to leave.

It seemed that everything except the screen had become interesting. The boy's gaze drifted around in the darkness.

Suddenly, a beautiful face not far away attracted his attention.

There was a beautiful girl sitting a few seats away. Even though the lights in the cinema were dim, the blurry light had a gentle effect. The outline of her exquisite face was still very clear.

The boy subconsciously shivered— He had never seen a girl as exquisite as a statue.

It was often said that the heavens had their own will. He felt that perhaps he was stood up tonight to bid farewell to the past and welcome a brand new relationship!

He really needed someone's encouragement to have the courage to put it into practice.

The boy picked up his phone again and sent a message to his buddy. "Brother, I've met my true love. Encourage me to confess!"

"Deng Yang, are you joking? Didn't you confess to Jiang Xiaoyu a long time ago? How did you meet your true love again?"

The boy called Deng Yang said excitedly, "Jiang Xiaoyu is already in the past. I fell in love with a girl at first sight. Tell me that men need to be decisive! I want to confess to her immediately!"

"Uh… um… good luck." The other party hesitated and only replied with a few words.

"Thank you, brother! Wait for my good news!"

Chapter 36: A Few Minutes of Love

"Thank you, brother! Wait for my good news!" Deng Yang clenched his fists. He was determined to win the goddess of love at first sight!

He was like a scout in a trench. He moved his butt to the position beside Ai Tingya, preparing to start the relationship by talking about the movie plot. He wanted to show his unique understanding of the movie. Then, when the lights in the theater lit up, he would use his handsomeness to completely conquer the other party!

"Sniff—"

A sniffing sound came from beside him. The goddess was crying.

"This is a good opportunity!" Deng Yang quickly took out the tissue he had prepared in advance and was about to show off his gentle side!

At this moment, he saw the goddess' body tilt to the other side.

"Tingya, don't be sad." A gentle voice came from the other side.

Deng Yang leaned out and saw a man sitting next to the goddess. He was wiping her tears with his sleeve, and their other hands were tightly clasped together.

"Fate is too unfair to them." The goddess leaned on the boy's shoulder as if she was commenting on a movie.

However, she was clearly talking about himself in Deng Yang's ears. Why wasn't she single since he had met her?

Deng Yang felt like his heart was like a rag that was twisted into a fried dough twist by fate.

"Brother, I've fallen out of love again." Deng Yang retreated to his seat and gave his blessings to the goddess in his unwillingness.

He could not deny that his goddess' boyfriend was really handsome. The girl he liked had a high standard of beauty. Deng Yang could only comfort himself like this.

The movie quickly ended. Couples walked out of the theater, the girls were still grieving for the movie while the boys were in charge of comforting them. How suitable for couples to watch.

Deng Yang felt even sadder as he walked. He should be the one who wanted to cry the most.

"Phew, you're finally out." Deng Yang's brother was waiting for him outside the waiting area. "Are you alright? Do you need me to accompany you for a drink?"

"Boohoo…" Deng Yang could no longer maintain his strong front in front of his brother. He burst into tears. "Why is my life so bitter? I just want a sincere love!"

His brother seemed to be used to his behavior. He hugged his shoulder and comforted him. "It's fine to suffer a little setback as a man. Let's go for a drink. It's your treat."

"Get lost!"

"Otherwise, I'll tell everyone that you cried when you watched the movie!"

"Son, go and die!"

The two of them laughed and scolded each other as they left the cinema.

Ai Tingya and Luo Feng were walking behind Deng Yang. She didn't know that she was the source of Deng Yang's sadness. Seeing the two of them bickering, she couldn't help but to say enviously, "The boy in front has such a good relationship with his brother."

"Right." Luo Feng noticed it too.

"Just like you and Lei Jin." Ai Tingya suddenly said. 𝚋ｅｄ𝚗𝚘𝚟ｅ𝚕．𝚗ｅｔ

Luo Feng thought about it, it was indeed as Ai Tingya said. He lived close to Lei Jin's family and had been in the same class since elementary school.

In his previous life, his parents had died early and he had an incurable disease. During that period of time, he was lying on the hospital bed. If Lei Jin had not asked his mother to come and take care of him and send him two meals a day, he might not have lived to meet Ai Tingya.

Thinking of this, Luo Feng felt that he was too lucky.

"Luo Feng, I really envy you." said Ai Tingya.

"Don't you still have Xiao Fei? When we get married in the future, Lei Jin will be the best man and Xiao Fei will be the bridesmaid." Luo Feng sincerely planned.

"Dream on. Who wants to marry you?" Ai Tingya scolded jokingly.

The two of them laughed and walked back to the orphanage.

When she reached the intersection, she happened to see the apple tree in the courtyard. Ai Tingya stopped and said, "It is enough to send me here."

Luo Feng agreed, looking at the remaining short distance . "Sure, I'll leave after seeing you enter the courtyard."

"Okay."

Ai Tingya agreed, but she didn't move. She pursed her lips and held Luo Feng's hand, unwilling to let go for a long time. She struggled for a while, then stood on her tiptoes under Luo Feng's surprised gaze.

His warm breath landed on Luo Feng's face. His soft lips touched Luo Feng's face, but they bounced off as if they were electrocuted. The warm touch was quickly blown away by the spring breeze.

"I owed you this at the dining table just now. Don't misunderstand." Ai Tingya explained with a red face.

"Then you'll have to work harder to repay your debts. Who knows when I'll take the initiative to collect them." Luo Feng licked his lips, seemingly still carrying the sweetness of popcorn.

"Tsk, go back. Be careful on the way." Ai Tingya waved her hand and ran away like a little rabbit.

Luo Feng stared at her back until the iron gate was locked before leaving. He hailed a cab and headed home.

…

The days after that were very peaceful.

School life in the third year of high school was just to "learn" from beginning to end. At the same time, he revised the knowledge of the first two years of the new class. The rhythm was so fast that one would not be able to keep up with the rhythm if one was even the slightest distracted in class.

In addition, the more time they spent in school, the less time they had to revise in private.

"This knowledge point is of utmost importance! It comes out every year, you have to memorize it. You have to be right about it even when you talk in your sleep!"

"This too. It is tested almost every other year. Since it wasn't on the exam last year, it will definitely be on the exam this year. This is a giveaway. Don't get it wrong."

"Golden formula, students. If you encounter a big question, just use it! Even if you don't know anything, just writing the formula will give you a few points. Remember it!"

Teacher Yu rumbled through on the podium, wishing that she could tear the book into pieces and stuff it into the students' heads. Every point of knowledge was taught through gritted teeth, like a ruminative penguin mother feeding the students bits of knowledge.

A tall wall of books was built on the desks, and behind them were the sleepy eyes of the students. They swayed as they listened to the class and yawned listlessly.

The teaching progress was so fast that they lost interest quickly. Even the most serious Ai Tingya felt like she was listening to a heavenly book.

After class, she hugged her textbook sadly and said, "I still don't understand many things."

Luo Feng took the book and said, "What do you not understand, let me teach you."

Ai Tingya remembered that she didn't understand much even though she was seriously taking notes in class. While Luo Feng bit his pen cap in class and looked out the window at the quarreling sparrows. She was instantly furious: "I'm not listening to you, I'll go to the office and ask the teacher."

Luo Feng was confused. His explanation wasn't bad, so why wasn't Ai Tingya willing to listen?

"What did I do wrong to make you angry?" Luo Feng asked. He still couldn't guess a girl's thought even after living two lives.

Ai Tingya saw that his attitude had softened and knew that she was being willful just now. "No, I just feel that I'm very useless and couldn't keep up with you."

"I see. It's easy to keep up with me. Come to my house and I'll tutor you for an hour every night. I guarantee you'll be able to understand every single lesson clearly!" Luo Feng patted his chest with a guarantee.

Chapter 37: Luo Feng's Tutoring Rules

"Will listening for an hour really help me improve my results?" Ai Tingya asked doubtfully.

She knew that Luo Feng's comprehension ability was very good. He could memorize all the knowledge in the book and use it to do questions. However, having good grades didn't mean that he could teach people. To be able to understand in an hour was a bit of an exaggeration.

"You can add more if you think an hour isn't enough. You can just stay at my place if it gets too late, my home is able to accommodate you." smiled Luo Feng.

They were eventually going to get married anyway, so it didn't matter if they lived under the same roof. 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙤𝙧𝒈

Ai Tingya heard the evil thoughts in Luo Feng's head and thought for a bit before saying, "Sure, but wait for me to get ready. How about I go to your place tomorrow night?"

Was she going to prepare toiletries? Actually there was no need. He had everything at home.

He didn't expect Ai Tingya to agree so quickly. Luo Feng was overjoyed. He found a notebook and started to set up the tutoring rules.

Ai Tingya stretched her head and saw the word "rules". She knew that Luo Feng was thinking about something else. She smiled and turned around to shake Lei Jin awake.

…

Luo Feng brought Ai Tingya back to his home the next night.

Mother Luo had heard that Ai Tingya was coming home to study early so she had bought a sumptuous supper and was waiting for her.

"Tingya, you're here?" Mother Luo took Ai Tingya's bag enthusiastically.

Father Luo also put down the newspaper and nodded at Ai Tingya with a smile.

"Auntie didn't know what you liked to eat, so I bought some of everything and placed them all on the dining table. You can take whatever you want to eat." Mother Luo pointed at the dining table.

Sweet bread, salty fried noodles, a large skewer of barbecue, and a pot of crayfish. It was even more sumptuous than dinner.

Luo Feng glanced at her with disdain and said, "Mom, you're really something. It's not even the season to eat crayfish yet. Besides, who's going to eat so much oily food at night? Fruits are definitely more suitable for supper. Aiya!"

Ai Tingya secretly elbowed Luo Feng and glared at him, warning him to stop. How could he let his mother down?

Mother Luo was already used to her son's sarcastic words. "Alright, alright. Go and study. I'll call you when I'm done peeling the apple."

She pushed the two of them into the room with that.

"Can the two of them calm down and study hard alone inside?" Father Luo put down the newspaper and asked worriedly, drawing a question mark on his son's reservedness.

"It's possible. Didn't they do this a lot last semester? Why don't you help me wash the apples if you have the time to worry?" Mother Luo was very confident in her son.

"But I see that they're under a lot of pressure in their third year of high school. You know that it is necessary to have an outlet to vent when the pressure is high."

"I don't know. Did you do the same thing previously since you can think of that?"

Why has the target turned to me again? Father Luo thought to himself. He immediately raised his hand and admitted defeat.

"I didn't say anything. Hurry up and prepare the fruits."

On the other side, Luo Feng made Ai Tingya sit by the bed and unrolled a piece of paper the size of a calendar. On it were the words "Tutoring Rules", and he even used a red pen to draw the highlights.

Luo Feng hung it on the bookshelf and took out a radio antenna from somewhere, using it as a pointer.

"Student Ai Tingya, you know that nothing works where there are no rules. These are the rules I set for you. See if there's anything you don't understand."

Ai Tingya raised her eyebrows. She knew that Luo Feng had revealed his true colors as soon as she saw the first one.

She read. "First, one hour of tutoring every night. If you exceed the time limit, you have to pay with a 'kiss'. You can't delay payment on it."

"Your teacher is also a human, it's hard for him to survive without some rewards." Luo Feng said convincingly.

Ai Tingya felt that something wasn't right, but she couldn't find a reason to refute him, so she continued, "Second, the student (Ai Tingya) needs to call the teacher (Luo Feng) with sweet nicknames in order to differentiate from boring classes. For example?"

"For example, hubby, darling, family head, and so on… In short, you can call me whatever you like. I'm very open-minded and am giving you full freedom."

The shamelessness made Ai Tingya laugh. "Third, if there are knowledge points that can't be remembered even after repeated explanations, there will be a small punishment, based on the actual situation."

Luo Feng pointed at himself and said. "I will dictate the actual situation, using my standards as the basis."

"Aren't you taking advantage of me? I wouldn't be able to reject it if you ask for… that… that excessive request." Ai Tingya said with embarrassment.

Luo Feng supported the back of Ai Tingya's chair with one hand and lifted her chin with the other. "Student Ai Tingya, don't you trust your hubby, ah no, your teacher's character?"

"Nonsense." Ai Tingya pushed him away. "Time is tight. Let's start class."

"Call me hubby and get used to it, then we'll officially begin" Luo Feng revealed a malicious smile. Ai Tingya actually didn't object. The sun would be rising from the west.

Ai Tingya was so angry that she lost her temper. She held back her bulging cheeks and could only compromise after holding it in for a while. She said softly, "Hubby, let's begin."

"Sure." Luo Feng held her face and kissed it.

Mother Luo, who was at the door, almost cried out in fear. She almost lost her grip on the apple in her hand, covered her mouth and ran to the kitchen, shouting excitedly at the vegetable basin.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Father Luo came over.

"I just Tingya call Xiao Feng 'Hubby'. We didn't even dare to hold hands when we were dating. Young people nowadays are really bold!"

"It's alright." Father Luo scratched his face and recalled his heroic act of flirting with young girls when he was young. He said seriously. "You're already so old. Don't listen to what you shouldn't hear. Leave some privacy for the children."

Mother Luo blushed and said guiltily, "It was just a coincidence. What should we do with this plate of apples now?"

"We'll eat it ourselves."

"Alright." Mother Luo thought it through. In any case, they would be a family in the future. It didn't matter if they started a little earlier or a little later. She would let them be as long as it didn't affect their studies. She understood the warmth during the honeymoon period.

At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

Mother Luo glanced at the clock on the wall. Who would be knocking at the door at nine-thirty?

"Sister Sun, why are you here?" Mother Luo pushed open the door and saw Sun Bi, Lei Jin's mother, standing at the door with two cartons of milk in her hands.

"Sorry for disturbing you so late at night." Sun Bi put down the milk shyly.

Lei Jin's family lived in the same district as Luo Feng before he was born. The two families often interacted with each other. After Lei Jin was born, Lei Jin's father bought a bigger house and moved out. However, it was only a few streets away. The two families became closer than before after the two kids went to school together.

Sun Bi must have something to ask of her since she brought the milk, but Mother Luo could not guess what it was.

After inviting her into the house, Mother Luo asked, "Sister Sun, what's the matter so late at night?"

Sun Bi rubbed her hands and said embarrassedly, "Actually, I'm here to ask Little Feng for a favor. You know that Lei Jin's results are terrible. I heard that Little Feng's results are good, so I want to ask him to help tutor Lei Jin."

Mother Luo nodded with understanding. The third wheel has arrived.

Chapter 38: I Don't Like Being a Lightbulb Either

"Is it convenient for Little Feng?" Sun Bi asked carefully.

She was a shy person and not very good at expressing herself. Lei Jin's father was very capable and did not need her to do much so she did not ask for help very often.

How could Mother Luo not be willing when she heard this? She treated Lei Jin as half a son. Xiao Feng's relationship could continue at any time, but there was only one chance to save Lei Jin's results.

"Sister Sun, take a seat, I'll get him for you." Luo Mu stood up and knocked on Luo Feng's door.

At the same time, Luo Feng was revising the math paper they did that day with Ai Tingya.

"Little Tingya, why do you always make the same mistakes here? AD is obviously perpendicular to BC! Look, look, the drawing is very obvious, isn't it?" Luo Feng almost broke the paper.

Ai Ting Ya didn't have enough imagination in her space, so she had a hard time with geometry. She couldn't understand the diagram no matter how Luo Feng explained.

Luo Feng was helpless and drew another supporting imaginary line: "Isn't this a bit more straightforward?"

"I think I feel something." Ai Tingya frowned and pointed at a point with a pen. "Does this have a parallel relationship with this one?"

"Right!" Luo Feng clapped his hands in encouragement. She had finally understood.

The two of them buried their heads together as Luo Feng taught Ai Tingya how to solve the problem step by step.

"Not bad! As expected of a student taught by me." Luo Feng looked at Ai Tingya's beautiful handwriting and was very satisfied, "However, I think we can add a 'small punishment' here in order to leave a deeper impression on you."

Ai Tingya said reluctantly, "What small punishment?"

"Of course it's a wet…" Luo Feng didn't say it explicitly. The corners of his mouth curled into an ambiguous smile, and his eyes slowly moved downwards.

Ai Tingya immediately understood what he meant. She covered her back and said, "You're shameless. Change it."

It wouldn't have such an effect if it was another one.

Luo Feng blew on his palm and said, "The tutoring rules are based on me. If I say this is the punishment, then this is it."

"You're so naughty. Don't come over, or I'll call Auntie in to take a look."

"Little Tingya, scream. No one will save you even if you scream your throat out."

"No, no! Don't be ridiculous. I think someone's coming to your house. Listen, there's a knock on the door."

"There's only owls at this time of night. I didn't apply for Hogwarts. Come over and let the teacher educate you."

The two of them were fooling around in the room when a knock on the door really came unexpectedly.

Luo Feng's interest was interrupted, and he opened the door with dissatisfaction: "Mom, we're at a crucial moment in our studies, can you not disturb us?"

"The neighbors can almost hear your laughter, your Auntie Sun is here, I have something to tell you." Mother Luo rolled her eyes at Luo Feng, seeing that the smile lines at the corner of her son's eyes haven't relaxed yet, how could he say he's studying seriously?

"Oh, okay."

Luo Feng agreed and told Ai Tingya to stay in the room obediently. He then walked to the living room and obediently greeted the guest. "Hello Auntie Sun."

He was quite grateful to Sun Bi. Sun Bi came more frequently than Ai Tingya when he was seriously ill in his previous life after all.

He was at the critical juncture of starting a business before he fell ill. Later on, he urgently needed money, but he did not want to drag Lei Jin and his other business partners down, so he simply took some money home and laid flat.

At that time, he felt like the sky was about to collapse. He lay alone in the cold house and didn't eat anything for two days and two nights. It was Lei Jin who broke the door and forced him to go to the hospital for treatment.

At that time, Luo Feng was in a daze and couldn't remember anything clearly. He only remembered Sun Bi standing in front of his bed and wiping her tears. She knew that he had no parents and no one to take care of him, so she came to deliver lunch and dinner twice a day.

Later on, he found out that Sun Bi and the others took out all their savings to help him treat his illness. However, Luo Feng knew that he couldn't repay them, so he rejected their good intentions and got the people from charities to bring him along.

He had no way to repay this kindness.

"Little Feng, Auntie has something to ask of you." Sun Bi fidgeted with her fingers nervously.

Luo Feng smiled. "Auntie Sun, I know you're here for Lei Jin's results, no problem. One of my classmates is also tutoring at my house coincidentally so the three of us can accompany each other."

Luo Feng caught a glimpse of Ai Tingya hiding behind the door crack and snickering as they were talking. He took a guess about the timing of Sun Bi's arrival. Why didn't she come earlier or later? She just had to bump into the first day of tutoring. This girl must have done something.

"I know that Xiao Feng is the most generous. Xiao Jin even asked me to ask for a favor." Sun Bi said, comforted. "Is it convenient tonight? I'll get Xiao Jin to come over now."

"Alright, ask him to bring today's math paper along." Luo Feng agreed.

It seemed like he was the one who suggested participating in the tutoring judging from Sun Bi's tone. Why didn't his brother tell him personally?

Luo Feng felt that there was something fishy going on. 𝑏𝑒𝑑𝑛𝘰𝑣𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝑚

After a while, Lei Jin appeared in front of Luo Feng's house. He lowered his head like a puppy that was caught, his eyes were darting around and he didn't dare to meet Luo Feng's gaze.

Luo Feng brought Lei Jin into the room after greeting the three parents.

"Dude, I didn't mean to ruin your virgin night."

Lei Jin was the first to make his stand clear as soon as he entered. Luo Feng could guess what he was going to say. He had to save his grades, so he had no choice but to come.

"Tingya told you about it?" Luo Feng said helplessly. No wonder she could accept the "tutoring rules" so easily. She had already found someone to save the situation.

Lei Jin nodded. He really couldn't resist this temptation. The tutoring provided by two top students couldn't be bought with money. Since Ai Tingya's tutoring could make Luo Feng the first place in their grade, he might be able to get into a third-tier university with their help.

He carefully raised his head. Even though this wasn't the first time he entered Luo Feng's room, the room had an additional layer of privacy with the addition of Ai Tingya.

It was at this moment that Lei Jin saw the "Tutoring Rules" hanging on the bookshelf. The red pen's highlights were too tempting. Was this something a teenager should read?

Lei Jin, who didn't dare to look at Luo Feng just a minute ago, opened his mouth and revealed a vulgar smile: "Teacher Luo Feng, can I teach you Sweetie? Is it not intimate enough?"

"Scram." Luo Feng kicked his butt. "What are you doing here?"

"Sweetie, don't be shy. What did Ai Tingya call you? I will address you the same way." Lei Jin teased.

Only then did Ai Tingya realize the shameful "Tuition Rules" was hanging in a conspicuous place. She pulled the paper off in a panic, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it in the corner.

"Sister-in-law is shy, hahaha!" This time, it was Lei Jin's turn to hold his stomach. "Don't worry, Sister-in-law. My mouth is very tight. I definitely won't tell anyone. Don't you think so, Sweetie?"

Luo Feng glared at him: "I'll sew your mouth up if you keep this up."

"Alright, alright!" Ai Tingya interrupted him in embarrassment. "Hurry up and study. Don't waste time."

"No problem, Sister-in-law!"

Chapter 39: Examine Yourself And Show Your Level Of Understanding!

Luo Feng's small room was extremely crowded on the first day of tutoring.

In the past, he had never thought that his bedroom would be required to take on the responsibility of being a library. Hence, Ai Tingya was left to use the desk alone while Luo Feng sat on the bed. Lei Jian found a small stool to do the questions. The conditions were quite tough.

Luo Feng stared at the back view of the two of them who were engrossed in their questions and seemed to recall something from the past.

In his previous life, Lei Jin's family was happy and his parents were open-minded. They did not force him to study so he calmly ranked last.

At that time, Luo Feng wanted to go to the same university as Xing Miaomiao, so he worked hard for the last semester. Lei Jin, on the other hand, started to relax and was prepared to get a high school diploma before going out to work.

However, Lei Jin's father was injured at the construction site and his nerves were injured when the college entrance examination was approaching. He had to be attended to for a long period of time. The pillar of the family fell. At that time, Lei Jin refused to wait until graduation and was going to drop out of school to work.

Lei Jin's father's head was wrapped in gauze, and his limbs were not very good. Even so, he gritted his teeth and jumped up to give Lei Jin a punch. The man's face was covered in tears as he begged Lei Jin to study hard. He did not want him to have to rely only on his physical strength in the future.

Lei Jin seemed to be a different person overnight. He studied late into the night every day and woke up at 5:30 in the morning to memorize vocabulary. He slept three to four hours a day and could still open his eyes in class.

However, his foundation was really too weak. Luo Feng still remembered Lei Jin crying bitterly while eating, saying that he was very anxious and under a lot of pressure, forgetting things he learnt and having to relearn everything over and over again. It was very painful.

It was also at that time that Lei Jin's thick hair began to leave him and never grew back.

The results of the college entrance examination were also not satisfactory. Lei Jin's score was still a few points away from getting into the second-tier university. He could only enter the better third-tier schools. However, he managed to obtain a university diploma at the very least.

After this incident, the Lei Jin family suffered heavy losses, yet they still chose to help Luo Feng when he was seriously ill.

Luo Feng subconsciously reached out and touched Lei Jin's head. Under Teacher Yu's tyrannical power, he shaved his fashionable afro into a crew cut. His short hair was a bit prickly, and pressing it on it was like pressing on a brush.

"Why are you touching your father?" Lei Jin dodged unhappily. "You can't touch a man's head or a woman's waist, understand?"

Luo Feng retracted his hand and said, "Lei Jin, did Uncle Lei change to another construction site?"

"That's right."

"Tell Uncle Lei not to go." Luo Feng hoped that he could avoid the damage.

"Why?"

Luo Feng placed his hand on Lei Jin's shoulder and patiently said, "Brother, think about it. You didn't study hard for the past two years and don't know a lot of knowledge, so you must be under a lot of pressure. Can you do it without anyone hawking over you? Besides, Auntie Sun has a soft personality and can't control you, so Uncle Lei should definitely keep an eye on you."

Lei Jin pushed his hand away. "I'm not that bad."

Luo Feng raised his eyebrows and stared seriously into Lei Jin's eyes.

"Alright, you're right. But my father needs to earn money!" Lei Jin admitted defeat after a while.

"Is your future or that bit of money more important? Besides, it won't be long now. How about this, I'll pay for your family's living expenses during this period of time?" Luo Feng continued.

Lei Jin looked at Luo Feng a few more times suspiciously. He felt that Luo Feng was too strange tonight. He said some nonsense and even wanted to give Luo Feng money.

"Are you having a fever? I want to learn from you, don't disturb me." Lei Jin shivered, he could clearly feel that Luo Feng wasn't joking, he was too serious so his first reaction was to hide away from it.

Luo Feng said, "Brother, I'm not joking. The college entrance exam will follow you for a lifetime. Uncle Lei will definitely care more about you compared to his work."

"Got it," Lei Jin whispered back, engrossed in the paper.

Luo Feng couldn't help but laugh when he saw how serious Lei Jin was even though he couldn't solve the question. He scratched his head like a monkey learning how to write. The Lei Jin in this life came to his senses earlier than in his previous life, so he would definitely be able to avoid the tragedy.

Ai Tingya was also secretly observing Luo Feng as he stared at Lei Jin with a gratified smile.

In the past, Luo Feng's gaze was always locked onto her, but it suddenly landed on someone else. Ai Tingya still couldn't help but to feel jealous even though that person was Luo Feng's good brother.

"Is there a problem?" Luo Feng noticed Ai Tingya's gaze and thought that she was stumped by something.

"I've finished answering the questions. Help me take a look." Ai Tingya pointed at the paper and said.

"Let me see." Luo Feng took the paper and scanned through it, "You've improved a lot from before, so let's change the punishment."

Luo Feng pinched Ai Tingya's small face and patted her head lovingly.

Lei Jin said sourly, "Yo, yo, yo, Sweetie, do I also qualify for the punishment? You have to be gentler, alright?"

"Scram!" Luo Feng kicked the stool.

Ai Tingya was also amused by his comical appearance. The dull learning environment became lively.

From then on, the three of them would go to Luo Feng's house for tuition after their evening self-study sessions every day. The day students had one less night self-study session than the students who stayed on campus, so they spent more time at Luo Feng's house than in school.

Studying until eleven or midnight was even more common.

Lei Jin was fine. He could go home after walking a few streets, but it was not very convenient for Ai Tingya.

The only mode of transportation in the middle of the night was Luo Feng's bicycle. However, Mother Luo was worried about an accident because it was too late, so she placed a bed on the balcony.

Whenever it got too late, she would let Ai Tingya sleep in Luo Feng's room and get Luo Feng to sleep on the balcony.

Their relationship quickly heated up, and they were so close that they wished they could even go to the toilet together.

As a result, Lei Jin felt that he was very redundant. He did not have enough to eat every day, but he had a stomach full of lovey doveiness.

On this day, he caught Ai Tingya handing Luo Feng a small note. She actually wrote that she was laughing at him for having ink on his face. Did she have to specially send a note for such a small matter?!

"Boring! You're delaying my studies!" He indignantly took the exercise book to the dining room. Out of sight, out of mind. The young couple was simply too sweet.

"Lei Jin, why are you sitting here?" Mother Luo noticed him.

"Ahahaha, it's quieter here. I need an absolutely quiet environment when I'm doing the questions." Lei Jin laughed. He couldn't say that it was caused by a young couple.

"You must ask Xiao Feng if there's anything you don't understand. Your mother just called me to ask if you're serious." Mother Luo said with concern.

She naturally hoped that Luo Feng had outstanding friends around him, so she also hoped that Lei Jin could get into a good university.

"I understand. Thank you, Auntie. We'll work hard for the targeted examination."

There would be two targeted examinations before the college entrance examination. They were all comparable to the college entrance examination, be it in terms of the level of the test papers or the standards of the examination hall. The results of these two examinations would roughly be able to show their standards at the college entrance examination.

Lei Jin also wanted to know how much he had improved under Luo Feng's guidance.

Chapter 40: Top Student, Please Return To The Top Student Planet

Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, the first targeted exam arrived.

The school arranged all the third year students according to their results from the last exam. Luo Feng was the top student in the year and sat in the first seat of Class One. Ai Tingya had fallen to the middle level due to special reasons and was taking the exam in Class Four. Lei Jin was taking the exam in Class Eight, which was on the other side of the corridor.

"What should I do, Luo Feng? I feel so nervous!" Lei Jin's forehead was covered in sweat, as if he was fished out of the water.

Luo Feng patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be nervous. Believe in yourself and in Tingya and me. Under our guidance, you'll definitely be able to sit in Class Five for the next exam."

"But I just can't calm down! You're fine. It feels good to get first place, right?" Lei Jin didn't know whether to sit or stand. The floor under his feet seemed to be roasted over a fire, and the wait was very torturous.

Luo Feng shrugged, "I'm just making do, there's not much room for improvement." 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Lei Jin was so angry that he was about to vomit blood. Of course, it is impossible for you to improve further with a perfect score in all subjects. Or do you actually want to be the teacher setting the paper?

Lei Jin was not only nervous, but also a bit more impulsive after hearing Luo Feng's words. He was like a bellows, taking deep breaths.

Luo Feng was helpless seeing his state.

Ads by Pubfuture

In the past, they were in a completely flat state when they were still bad students. Any extra point was worth it, so there was no pressure.

As for the top students, their years of hard work would show up on the test papers. Every point of cultivation would be fruitful. They would always say that 'I haven't revised either' or 'I don't know many questions' on the eve of the test, but those were just chatter.

There was no need to say anything about Luo Feng. Ai Tingya and him were at the forefront and were very confident in themselves, so the exam was like a leisure time for him.

Lei Jin was the most miserable. He did not have the grades of a top student, nor did he have the carefree attitude of a bad student. He was nervous both before and after the exam.

Luo Feng looked at Lei Jin sympathetically and realized that the hair on Lei Jin's head had obviously decreased. Luo Feng thought that Lei Jin must be so anxious that he couldn't sleep at night, so he comforted Lei Jin and sent him to Class Eight's examination hall.

…

"The big question this time is really abnormal. I know every individual word, but I don't know what it means when they are connected into a sentence."

"I spent too much time at the beginning. I didn't even have time to take a look at the last two questions."

"The last big questions are for the top students to earn points. We'll be lucky if we can finish the first few questions."

"The questions are too difficult. I feel that I did very badly."

Lei Jin walked back from Class Eight to Class One, passing by all the third year classrooms. All he heard was complaints that the math questions were too difficult. The teachers told them not to continue pondering about the exam that had just passed since they did not want it to affect their performance on the other exams.

However, the discussion of math questions was always interesting.

Lei Jin had heard many solutions, but none of his answers matched.

It was as if there was a drum in his heart, thumping so hard that his mind went blank.

He saw a group of people surrounding Luo Feng, using him as a reference to discuss the questions just as he walked back to the classroom.

Lei Jin walked over with a long face. "Luo Feng, I feel like I did very badly."

"How is that possible?" Luo Feng and Ai Tingya exchanged glances.

They had seen Lei Jin's standard of solving questions before the exam. Everything else was not bad other than the fact that he was not good at functions. It would not be too bad if he answered the questions seriously.

"It's true. I felt that I answered wrongly even though I finished all of the questions. My solutions might be wrong!" Lei Jin hugged his head and said in pain.

He likes to pull out his hair when he is anxious.

"Don't be in such a hurry to feel uncomfortable, tell me how you solved the question" Luo Feng was now a walking reference answer.

Lei Jin raised his head and roughly explained how he had written the solution.

The class math representative next to him replied before Luo Feng could get a word in."The way I solved the questions is completely different from yours. Don't we have to simplify it first before doing the fractions?"

"Huh? You can do that?"

"I didn't even finish the question even though I wrote an entire piece of paper. How many rows did you guys write?"

"Mine is the right way. None of yours are right!"

"You have the cheek to say that after holding it in for half an hour?"

"I saw it. Your last page was empty."

"I don't have enough time. Many people don't have enough time as well, alright?"

Discussions about the last two questions started again. No one cared if Lei Jin wrote the last two questions correctly.

Luo Feng's voice was drowned out by the voices of the other students. Lei Jin couldn't hear what Luo Feng said, so he could only hide to the side, feeling depressed.

Ai Ting Ya walked to Luo Feng's side and said, "I heard it just now. Lei Jin's solving process was more than 50% correct, so he should be able to get points."

"I think so too." Luo Feng pinched his chin in confusion, "Aren't the questions this time very simple? Why is everyone arguing so intensely?"

This time, his voice was heard.

The students turned their heads and said in disbelief, "Are you kidding me, Luo Feng? How can you say that it's simple? Are you even human?"

"How long did it take you to do the papers?"

"I know!" A girl who was in the same exam room as Luo Feng raised her hand and said. "I saw Luo Feng sleeping on the table during the last 20 minutes."

The others did not even have enough time to answer the questions, but he still had time to sleep?!

"Is it very strange?" Luo Feng was confused. He turned to ask Ai Tingya, "How long did you spend on the big questions?"

"10 minutes on average." Ai Tingya said calmly.

They were petrified on the spot when they heard that. As expected, the top students were creatures from another world. They could not be compared to commoners.

They suddenly felt that it was too stupid to argue whether they were right or wrong in front of a top student!

"Hehehe, as expected of the male and female duo in our class."

The awkward yet polite smiles on the students' faces disappeared as they picked up their books and started chomping down on them, leaving Luo Feng and Ai Tingya looking at each other, wondering if they had said something wrong.

"Why do I feel like our classmates don't want to talk to us?" Ai Tingya asked curiously.

"I have the same feeling. Why?" Luo Feng didn't quite understand.

…

While the students were lamenting over the difficulty of the questions, the teachers were sighing as they read the papers. The scores were still unbearable to look at even at this important juncture.

Teacher Yu was nearly dead from the world with the thick test paper in her hand. Don't be angry. No one would care about you even if you get angry and hurt yourself.

She really did not want to take another look and urgently needed to calm down.

Then, she glanced at the paper in the form teacher's hand and asked, "Teacher Zhang, which examination room are you looking at?"

"It's from the Class One examination room. What's wrong?" Teacher Zhang didn't even look up.

Class One examination room, wasn't that Luo Feng's examination room?

Teacher Yu felt like she contracted a "I won't feel good if I don't praise Luo Feng" illness so she couldn't help but to ask, "Did you see Luo Feng's test paper? How was his answer?"

Teacher Zhang said angrily. "I messed up the sequence. I don't know which one belongs to Luo Feng."

The quiet office was instantly filled with gunpowder as soon as these words were spoken.

41 Luo Feng Is Both Studious And A Teacher?

"Teacher Yu, don't just keep staring at Luo Feng's paper. The average score of your class wasn't high in the last exam, if I remember correctly." Teacher Zhang sneered.

Everyone knew that Luo Feng from Class One had scored full marks in all subjects and was sitting in the first seat in the examination room ever since the Oath-Taking Rally. Teacher Zhang could not stand Teacher Yu's smugness.

"I treat the students equally. I didn't expect Luo Feng to be enlightened so quickly. Thank you for your reminder, Teacher Zhang. I'll be more careful in the future," Teacher Yu replied.

No matter what Teacher Zhang said, she would shut up immediately whenever Luo Feng was mentioned.

She had been in the industry for almost 20 years and had never seen a genius who scored full marks in all subjects after all.

"Hehe, work hard then. I hope your class's average score can increase a little." Teacher Zhang replied unhappily.

"Thank you for your auspicious words. I also hope that your class will produce a top student." Teacher Yu smiled.

Luo Feng's results alone were enough for her to brag about for the rest of her life. Hence, Teacher Yu could sit firmly on the high ground and treat Teacher Zhang as being jealous.

However, Teacher Zhang's words also reminded her that many small fries were covered up under Luo Feng's halo of full marks for all subjects. It was completely impossible for him to pull up the average alone. The other students had to improve their results with haste.

Teacher Yu cracked her knuckles at the thought of this. She had to use high-pressure methods from now on!

…

"Boohoohoo, where do I get the face to go back and tell my father? He specially took a break from work to watch over my studies at home. I've worked hard for nothing this month."

Lei Jin sat in his seat and covered his face, sighing in self-disgust when the test results were about to be announced.

"It's not as bad as you think. I think your math results must have improved significantly." Luo Feng comforted him.

The answers for the Chinese Language Examination were categorized as comprehension-type questions. One could score as long as they were somewhat close to it. Mathematics was different. Right and wrong were as obvious as day. Some students relied on Mathematics to score.

Lei Jin could jump from the lower bottom ranks to the higher ranks if his math score increased by 60 points.

"Brother, don't comfort me. I know my level best. I've let you and Sister-in-law down." Lei Jin was so depressed that he couldn't raise any confidence. He trusted his judgment more no matter how Luo Feng persuaded him.

"We've just had different final answers. What I wrote should be similar to what you wrote." Luo Feng didn't lie at all.

However, Lei Jin refused to listen.

Luo Feng was thinking about how to cheer Lei Jin up when a classmate suddenly appeared at the door and shouted. "Lei Jin, Teacher Yu wants you to go to the office."

Lei Jin shuddered, his face filled with horror, as though he was facing the end of the world.

Everyone in the class knew very well what it meant to be called to the office alone by a teacher on the eve of the results.

They looked at Lei Jin sympathetically and were worried that they would be the next to be called.

"What did I tell you!" Lei Jin stood up in resignation. "Brother, I'm going!"

Luo Feng watched Lei Jin leave and was slightly speechless. He was only going to the office, not the execution ground. Why didn't Lei Jin believe him?

…

Teacher's office.

Teacher Yu held the test paper in her hand and frowned. Soon, the corners of her mouth curled up uncontrollably. Her crying and laughing expression was like an AI robot that had lost control.

"Teacher, why are you looking for me?" Lei Jin walked in dejectedly.

Teacher Yu immediately smiled when she saw him. She took out her most amiable voice and said, "Lei Jin, how do you think you did this time?"

"I think I… I didn't do well…" 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝒎

"Why not?" Teacher Yu continued to smile.

"I… I don't know either. I just feel so…"

"Why do you feel this way?" Teacher Yu continued to laugh.

Lei Jin's heart was already dead. He felt all the hair on his body stand on end seeing Teacher Yu's unexplained gentleness. "Teacher Yu, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't keep smiling at me. I'm afraid!" He begged.

"What are you afraid of?" Teacher Yu said fiercely. Her good mood instantly turned gloomy. "Am I going to eat you?"

"What do you want from me?"

"You did well this time. Take a look at it yourself." Teacher Yu handed Lei Jin's paper to him.

Lei Jin opened the paper and widened his eyes in disbelief.

"118?" He was surprised and repeatedly confirmed that the name and student number were his. His scores usually hovered around 30 to 40 points so he really couldn't believe that he had not only passed but had also scored more than 100 points!

"Am I dreaming?!" Lei Jin pinched his face hard, tears flowing out of his eyes from the pain. "Is this really my paper?"

Teacher Yu did not believe it at first. If not for the fact that the average standard of the eighth examination room was low, so low that there was no one he could copy from, she would have suspected that Lei Jin had cheated too.

However, this thought only lasted for a moment. She still believed in her student's character and would not lie to herself. She firmly believed that it was Lei Jin's strength now that she saw this child's silly appearance.

"Lei Jin, you improved too fast. Can you tell me how you did it?" Teacher Yu asked sincerely.

She really wanted to promote it to the entire class and raise the average score if Lei Jin's learning method was feasible.

"It's Luo Feng!" Lei Jin read out that person's name gratefully. "I go to Luo Feng's house every day after the evening self-study. I'm tutored for at least an hour before going back. By the way, Ai Tingya studies with us too."

"I see." Teacher Yu nodded in surprise.

She seemed to have thought of something and found Ai Tingya's test paper. Her results had indeed improved a lot. Ai Tingya seemed to have gotten the concepts in geometry right even though it was something she struggled with in the past.

Teacher Yu asked. "Is Luo Feng good at teaching?"

"Yes!" Lei Jin nodded heavily. "I could understand and memorize the knowledge points that I didn't understand in class after he explained it."

Teacher Yu suddenly felt a little weird when she heard that. She taught mathematics and was the form teacher of Class One, but Class One's mathematics results were always not good.

"Does Luo Feng teach better than me?" Teacher Yu regretted it the moment she asked. Why was she competing with her student…

Ads by Pubfuture

"Hmm… Do you want to hear the truth or a lie…"

Lei Jin's attitude had already explained everything. Teacher Yu was deeply hurt. "Forget it. Go back to the classroom and help me bring the lesson plan over first."

...

"But the next class is physical education…"

"Your physical education teacher is sick."

He was already in the third year of high school, yet he still wanted to attend physical education class.

Teacher Yu originally wanted to let them off, but she suddenly experienced her first sense of danger in her career from a student after teaching Mathematics for almost twenty years.

She really couldn't accept the fact that she wasn't as good as Luo Feng in teaching.

"No! How can I be angry with a student about this as a teacher! I have to keep improving and learning! I have to see what's so special about Luo Feng's teachings and learn from him humbly!"

Teacher Yu encouraged herself and ran towards the classroom in her high heels.

42 I Really Cannot Learn Your Way Of Teaching

"Continue your ruckus! The other classes were reading quietly on my way here. You guys are the loudest!"

"Do you think you did very well this time? Look at your results! I'm too embarrassed to look at them. Your average scores are much worse than Class Two's, yet you still want to go to PE class!"

"You'll have PE classes every day when you go to university! Be more rooted in your studies."

Teacher Yu stood on the podium fiercely. She rushed to the classroom to stop the students running to the field when the results of the exam were out before she could accept the praise of the teachers in the office.

She wanted everyone to come back for math class.

Everyone, other than Luo Feng, Ai Tingya, and Lei Jin, lowered their heads, not daring to look up at Teacher Yu.

"Why are you all looking at the table? Are you able to understand anything from it?"

They raised their heads.

"Why are you all looking at me? Are there words on my face? Look at the blackboard!"

Ads by Pubfuture

The students were on the brink of tears. You're the teacher. Everything you say is right.

"Luo Feng." Teacher Yu took the initiative to walk down the podium and said, "Go up and talk about the exam papers."

Hm?

Luo Feng looked around in surprise and realized that his classmates were all looking at him. He really didn't hear it wrongly.

"Alright." Luo Feng didn't feel troubled. He picked up the paper and walked to the podium.

Teacher Yu crossed her arms and said as she walked to the last row, "Student Luo Feng scored full marks in all subjects again. He's the number one in the city! Everyone, listen to Student Luo Feng's method to obtain the solution."

Luo Feng didn't know which side the sun rose from today, but Teacher Yu actually wanted him to go on stage to explain how to do the questions.

He looked at the paper and thought for a moment. "Which question do you want to hear first?"

"Huh—" The students booed, not knowing what Luo Feng was up to.

Teacher Yu said sternly, "Follow the sequence. It's not like we're ordering a song."

Luo Feng said, "I'm sorry, Teacher Yu. I don't know which question is more difficult for the other students because I got everything right so I want to ask first. I'm afraid there won't be enough time if I have to explain every question in detail."

"…" Teacher Yu was speechless. He was actually f*cking right.

However, Luo Feng was telling the truth, so no one knew what expression to put on.

"Lei Jin, give me your paper." Luo Feng explained. "His foundation is not bad. It will most likely be a difficult problem if he doesn't get it right."

He knew the standards of the people he had taught.

The other students did not know how many points Lei Jin had scored. They only remembered his sorry state as he hung behind the class.

"No way, 40 points can be representative of us?" A male student said unhappily.

"Lei Jin scored 118 this time. He got all the fundamental questions correct even though his marks were not outstanding." Luo Feng added.

"…" The boy glanced at his 89 points and awkwardly covered his face with his hand, pretending not to have said anything.

"Alright, let's start now."

Luo Feng picked up the chalk and wrote down the detailed solution and test point on the blackboard. Luo Feng's voice was the only thing heard in the classroom.

The students had the mentality of watching a show. All of them crossed their arms and leaned back in their chairs, quietly waiting to see what Luo Feng could say.

Gradually, they picked up their pens and leaned against the seats to compare their answers. Everyone's faces were very serious, and they pricked up their ears, afraid of missing the main point.

Even Teacher Yu nodded repeatedly as she listened. She borrowed a pen and paper to memorize Luo Feng's unique train of thought.

"Look here. If you don't know where to start, figure out the teacher's intentions. They're using that knowledge point to narrow the range bit by bit! Of course, the premise is that you have to remember the contents of the textbook."

"First, we have to simplify this part. Did you get stuck here? Isn't there a condition here? Put it in and simplify it again. The answer will be out."

Luo Feng stood on the stage like a small sun. His classmates were like sunflowers. His classmates' gazes would be on him wherever he was.

However, Luo Feng could clearly feel that there was a different gaze hidden under the podium.

"Everyone, digest for two minutes before we continue with the big questions. The next question is the most important." Luo Feng stood at the side to avoid blocking the board.

He saw Ai Tingya holding her cheek and staring at him happily taking advantage of this small break. Anyone would know that this girl's strong gaze was not focused on the test paper.

The other students were busy digesting the wrong questions. She pouted and secretly sent him a flying kiss.

Heh, silly girl, you're getting bolder when you think no one can see you. Luo Feng smiled evilly.

He walked onto the stage again and said, "Student Ai Tingya, don't be distracted in class."

Ai Tingya's heart almost jumped out of her chest. She subconsciously thought that Luo Feng was going to follow the tuition rules. Luo Feng was the one who would be embarrassed when they had their little fun in front of Lei Jin alone. However, she would be the one who would be embarrassed in front of the entire class if they were to continue that fun now.

"Come up and write down the steps for the next question. Write your method." Luo Feng said.

Ai Tingya's wildly beating heart calmed down a little. Fortunately, he still knew his limits.

"It's not tiring to work as a couple!" The students joined in the commotion, and the classroom was filled with cheerful laughter.

Ai Tingya's face was so red that it was about to bleed. She glared at Luo Feng and quickly wrote down the steps to solve the problem before quickly returning to her seat.

"Everyone, don't laugh. Let's continue with the question. This question is very classic!"

The students became serious the moment Luo Feng spoke.

"There's a question like this almost every year. It'll be a free point question if you understand it. You'll be far behind if you don't." Luo Feng shook his head like a teacher and explained. Then, he waved his hand and said, "Student Ai Tingya, it's your turn to come up and explain your thoughts to the students."

"Oh, oh, oh—" The students laughed again. 𝒃𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝙡．𝙤𝒓𝙜

Ai Tingya stood up and walked onto the stage before her butt warmed up her seat. She explained her method in a soft voice. Luo Feng disassembled and analyzed the key points from the side at the right time.

The students listened to the math questions as if they were listening to gossip.

Teacher Yu stared at the two of them with a dark expression. Why are they flirting in public? It's a pity that Luo Feng didn't become a dog food wholesaler.

...

However, she gradually blended into the atmosphere on account of the good explanations.

"Ai Tingya, tell me if you have any other solutions."

"What do you think is the main point of this question, Ai Tingya?"

"Very good. Student Ai Tingya's solution is more intuitive. Pass it around later."

Things got out of hand after he called her once. Ai Tingya seemed to have become Luo Feng's teaching assistant. Her butt almost couldn't touch the stool as she kept answering questions.

Teacher Yu was a little unhappy at first.

I asked you to solve the questions, but you're flirting?! Can you show some respect to the class?

However, her frown relaxed because she realized that the timing that Luo Feng called on Ai Tingya was always the most important part.

The students were like Pavlov's dogs. Their spirits would be lifted once they heard Ai Tingya's name, and they would remember the main points more firmly.

Alright… Teacher Yu had to admit that she couldn't learn Luo Feng's way of teaching. She couldn't possibly drag her husband over…

43 The City's Number One, Destined Top Scorer Of The College Entrance Examination

"Alright, the entire paper will be finished after Ai Tingya answers the last question." Luo Feng crossed his arms and watched Ai Tingya write the answer down.

Ai Tingya quickly wrote down the answer and sat back down tiredly.

"Your answer is perfect. Thank you, Ai Tingya. Everyone, clap!" Luo Feng took the lead to encourage Ai Tingya.

The revision of the test paper ended successfully. Teacher Yu nodded in relief.

!

"Teacher Luo, look at how hard Ai Tingya worked. Shouldn't you give her a reward?" A girl said with a love-struck expression.

She was the famous fan of idol dramas in her class, happier to watch others fall in love than to fall in love herself. She raised her hand to support Luo Feng and Ai Tingya, the star student couple. Currently, her greatest wish was for them to get married on the spot.

"Of course I have to give Student Ai Tingya a reward, but I won't show you because she is shy." Luo Feng smiled at Ai Tingya.

"Ah!" The girls below screamed.

"It's so sweet!"

"It's so sweet. I need insulin urgently."

"I also want to have a sincere relationship. Who is willing to be my girlfriend?"

"Stop!"

Teacher Yu quickly went on stage to stabilize the situation. As expected, she really should not have high hopes for Luo Feng. If she had any hope for him, he would do something unexpected just like during the previous Oath-Taking Rally.

"Thank you for your explanation, very good!" Teacher Yu clapped her hands.

Unexpectedly, there was complete silence below. The students looked at her like ice sculptures. They were expressionless and not moving.

That sense of danger came again…

Teacher Yu forced a smile and said, "Students, you can ask questions now if there's anything you don't understand."

There was silence below. All the students buried their heads and searched seriously for something they did not understand.

Everyone could actually understand, much to their surprise. They would be confident in answering 80% of them if they did similar questions again.

"There's no question?" Teacher Yu asked stubbornly.

She did not want to believe that she was really inferior to her student.

At this moment, a girl raised her trembling hand.

Teacher Yu looked like she had seen her savior. "What's your question?"

"Teacher, I want to go to the toilet," the girl said with a red face. "I was listening too seriously just now and didn't feel anything."

"…Go on." Teacher Yu was on the brink of tears. So this was the half-time break…

The classroom continued to remain silent. Some students were consolidating their knowledge, while others looked out of the window and waited for the bell to ring. No one cared about how sad Teacher Yu was on the stage.

"Class dismissed. Free period." She said faintly and floated back to the office with her things.

…

Teacher's office.

"Sigh…" Teacher Yu let out a long sigh, her entire body emitting a sad aura.

Teacher Zhang from Class Two, who had been at odds with Teacher Yu earlier, was very puzzled when she saw her state. The first and second place in the entire grade are already in your class. What else do you have to be sad about?

"Teacher Yu, what's wrong?" Teacher Zhang asked with concern.

"Ah? It's nothing. I just feel that time passes quickly and I can't keep up with young people…" Teacher Yu looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle.

Teacher Zhang did not understand. The teachers and students of the entire year were all tense. She actually had the mood to grieve here? Was it really so easy to have the number one student in the entire city in her class?

Teacher Zhang felt that she had to emphasize her ethics to Teacher Yu given the responsibility of a teacher.

"Teacher Yu, you can't do this. Even though your class gave birth to a number one in the city, the other students still require supervision. You have to treat everyone equally! You can't spend your time being nosy!"

"What number one in the city?" Teacher Yu asked curiously.

"You still don't know?" Another teacher passing by said enviously, "Your class' Luo Feng is ranked first in the city this time. Take a look!"

The exam was a city-wide exam. Luo Feng was ranked first among the 60,000 candidates from the 15 high schools!

"Really!" Teacher Yu was revived. She held the list and looked at it again and again.

She was so anxious in the class just now and didn't have time to look at the rankings. Who would have thought that Luo Feng would leave such a big surprise!

"Congratulations, Teacher Yu. Luo Feng has reserved a spot for the top scorer of this city!"

"I'm so envious. I've never met a student who scored full marks with such a stable performance."

"Ai Tingya from your class is second in the grade and sixth in the city. Teacher Yu, you're going to be rich."

"This might be the best batch of students you've ever led."

The teachers sent their congratulations one after another. Teacher Zhang, who originally wanted to comfort Teacher Yu, immediately lost her mood and said unhappily, "It's not a good habit to favor one over the other. You have to hurry up and raise the average score of the class. Your Class One's average score this time is still lower than ours."

Unfortunately, no one was listening to him at all. They were all surrounding Teacher Yu to ask for revision methods.

Teacher Yu felt like she had seen the light of her teaching career again— I'm going to achieve the title of teaching top students in the city!

…

The entire third year of high school entered an intense revision period, preparing for the second set of prelims after the first prelims ended successfully.

Lei Jin's confidence doubled, and his entire body flickered with confidence during this period. Sun Bi was overjoyed and brought Luo Feng's family out for a few meals.

Lei Jin's father drank a bit too much and held Father Luo's hand as he cried. He said that his son had never gotten such good results since he started school. When Lei Jin heard his father's monologue, he, who had never thought of his parents' feelings, also felt a lump in his throat and hugged him as he cried.

His determination to prepare for the exam became even stronger.

In his tense revision life, Luo Feng heard from Lei Jin that something had happened to his father at the construction site previously. The items on the higher floors were not tied tightly and fell down, smashing a huge pit in the cement floor. Fortunately, no one was injured or killed.

...

Luo Feng smiled without saying anything.

In short, even though the past week had been tough, it was mostly filled with good news. Everyone seemed to be moving in a good direction.

Luo Feng originally thought so too.

However, he realized that Ai Tingya had become very strange recently. She was often distracted in class. Sometimes, she could not hear him even if he called her. She was often careless during tuition and could even make mistakes in the calculation questions.

Luo Feng looked at Ai Tingya's state and felt that she had something huge on her mind, so she couldn't divert her attention to other things.

There was nothing worse than this state for college entrance examination students.

Luo Feng was very worried about Ai Tingya, but she refused to tell him even after asking twice. She only forced a smile and said that she was fine.

He would be crazy to believe her.

The more she said that there was nothing wrong, the more trouble there was based on Luo Feng's understanding of Ai Tingya. Her stubborn personality was still the same even though he had successfully helped to change her by a large margin.

"I really can't do anything to her."

Luo Feng went straight to the orphanage after asking 23 times to no avail.

…

44 The Orphanage Is In Danger, A New Path to Wealth

There were only a few things that could worry Ai Tingya and the orphanage was the existence she cared about the most.

"Why are you here?" Ai Tingya flipped her wet hair and looked at Luo Feng at the door in surprise. Then, she realized that he was pulling a cart of stationery behind him.

The flatbed cart was piled high with pen and paper, acrylic paints, and drawing boards. He probably almost emptied the stationery shop.

Xiao Fei stopped helping Ai Tingya wet her hair after seeing so much good stuff. She threw down the water ladle and ran over. She was even happier to see Luo Feng than her biological mother.

!

Luo Feng handed the things to them and walked to Ai Tingya's side. He rolled up his sleeves and took a water ladle. He scooped half a drop of warm water and poured it on Ai Tingya's long hair to wash away the white foam.

The orphanage would not have a high-end water heater of course. If she wanted to wash her hair, she had to boil a basin of water and wet her hair herself.

The intense studies in the Third High School only allowed half a day a week for personal time for the students, so the three of them agreed not to do the tuition on Sundays.

Ai Tingya did not expect Luo Feng to come to the orphanage. She felt Luo Feng's gentle movements and lowered her head, allowing his hand to pass through her hair.

After washing the foam, Luo Feng took a clean towel and helped Ai Tingya dry the excess water bit by bit. Ai Tingya did not use a hairdryer and let her hair dry in the wind in order to save electricity.

"Why are you suddenly here? You even brought so many things," Ai Tingya asked again.

"Little Tingya has kept a secret from me. I'm here to find an answer." Luo Feng smiled.

Ai Tingya's face darkened. She clearly didn't want to talk to Luo Feng anymore.

Luo Feng took her hand and said, "I'll go ask Xiao Fei if you don't tell me. I think she'll be happy to tell me seeing how much paint there is."

This could not be helped. Luo Feng would not have to spend any effort if Ai Tingya was willing to say it obediently.

Ai Tingya finally could not dissuade Luo Feng after hesitating for a moment.

The two of them walked under the apple tree. Ai Tingya slowly said, "Actually, the owner of the cake shop that the orphanage worked with previously is going back to his hometown and has sublet the shop to someone else. In the past, we would buy ingredients from the cake shop to make some cakes and sell them in the shop. Even though the money isn't much, it's a very important income to us. However, the new owner asked us to share the profits with him."

Luo Feng asked curiously, "Is this considered a part-time job? You don't have enough living expenses?"

"No." Ai Tingya shook her head and said, "Our living expenses come from government funding and social donations, but it will only last until the age of 18. We will have a student loan when we reach adulthood and if we get into university. Those who don't get in will go out and find a job. We can save the income from selling cakes for future use. You know that it's very difficult for minors to find a job."

Cake making was a part-time job that could be completed in the orphanage. Even the youngest child could save some money as long as they knew how to sprinkle sugar beans. This was how Ai Tingya saved her university tuition fees.

However, this job was about to end.

"So it's because of this." Luo Feng touched Ai Tingya's head with heartache and said helplessly, "When will you learn to rely on me?"

Luo Feng felt that Ai Tingya was good at everything except spending money.

He would be nagged at for a long time even if he bought her an expensive dinner. Luo Feng didn't make any more large sums of money after repairing the basketball court. The small change was negligible.

It would be funny if word got out that he had a cheat to earn some money.

This time, he finally had a chance to earn money. He had to seize it.

However, this was a huge burden on Ai Tingya. She had known that she had to rely on herself ever since she could understand things. It was too difficult on her to rely on anything.

"Alright, you know what happened now. Go back and rest. We still have class tomorrow." She was prepared to send Luo Feng off before going to see Dean Du to discuss a solution.

Luo Feng avoided the situation. "Since I know, I definitely won't stand by and do nothing. Where's Dean Du? I have a plan to discuss with her."

After saying that, he walked into the building.

Ai Tingya knew that she could not dissuade him. She pulled Luo Feng to the basketball court at the back of the building.

The basketball court had been built long ago. Two children were playing with a little yellow dog. Dean Du sat not far from them, listening to the laughter and reading.

Luo Feng saw that her sideburns had turned much whiter, and the wrinkles on her face were as deep as knife carvings. She must have worried a lot because of the cake shop.

The two of them walked over and described what had happened.

"Director, what are your plans?" Ai Tingya asked worriedly.

"If it really doesn't work, I'll apply to the higher-ups and get the government to help find a place." Dean Du sighed and said. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝐧𝗼𝐯𝗲𝗹．𝐧𝐞𝘁

Even so, very few shops were willing to take over such an unrewarding task. The cake shop would be implicated if there was a problem with the biscuits and bread made by the orphanage after all.

"Dean Du, since we can't find a suitable place, we can totally open our own dessert shop." Luo Feng expressed his thoughts.

"But doing business is not easy, and we don't have that much money," Dean Du said.

She had sold vegetables for the orphanage in the past. There were many people in the orphanage, so it did not take much effort to grow and collect vegetables. However, the competition in the market was very intense. Newbies would only be bullied.

Even though it looked like a simple grocery shopping trip, they would still encounter malicious bargaining. Dean Du felt that it was a pity that the children's hard work was wasted, so she had no choice but to take another path.

She also knew that doing business made money, but the orphanage really could not afford to lose money.

"It's okay, I have money." Luo Feng seemed to see money waving at him.

He could not wait to make a loss when doing business.

He would invest money to recoup his losses and invest more money to recoup his losses. There would be income from profits, and there would be a foundation for losses. Any business he did would definitely make a profit!

Dean Du and Ai Tingya felt that this scene was familiar.

"Little Luo, I heard from Xiaoya that your family's conditions are average. Where did you get so much money?" Dean Du asked.

"I… I made some money from my previous investments, so opening a small shop shouldn't be a problem" laughed Luo Feng, "It's going to rot in the bank anyway. I might as well put the money where it could be used well."

"No, I can't let you take the risk alone. I'd better apply for some funds," Dean Du insisted. "Little Luo, you're a good child, so we can't let you suffer."

Luo Feng shook his head: "Dean Du, you're treating me like an outsider. You're Tingya's family, so you're naturally my family too. I'm just contributing for my family, how can I be considered to have suffered a loss? How about this, you apply for funds. I'll add on if it's not enough."

He had long thought about it. Dean Du would not have to worry so much that her hair would turn white if the funds were really so easy to apply for. He could only go along with them for now.

Both sides took a step back. Dean Du readily accepted the suggestion. "Alright, we'll do as you say."

She touched her burning eyes and held Ai Tingya's hand in relief. "Xiao Ya, Xiao Luo is a good child. The two of you have to stick together. Take care of each other and don't quarrel."

"I know." Ai Tingya's eyes were also red.

Luo Feng stood at the side awkwardly, feeling that he had let them down.

...

45 Let Darling Teach You How to Open a Milk Tea Shop

Dean Du sat alone at the desk in the room, holding her forehead in sadness after sending Luo Feng off that night.

Ai Tingya was worried about Dean Du so walked to her room worriedly after she got the other children to sleep.

"Xiaoya? Come in and sit."

Ai Tingya had just stood in front of the door when Dean Du's tired voice came from inside.

Ai Tingya pushed open the door. "Dean, you're still awake?"

Dean Du shook her head and said, "Sit. I have something to tell you."

Dean Du had not slept well ever since the original cake shop changed owners. She was in a very bad state, like a piece of decayed tree bark that would collapse at any time.

Ai Tingya's heart ached for the Dean, but she was too weak to help.

The two of them sat facing each other for a while before Dean Du said faintly, "Luo Feng told me about his thoughts on the dessert shop after dinner today."

"But we haven't confirmed that Luo Feng has to fork out the money yet. Didn't you say that you will apply to the Authorities first? Perhaps the funding application might be approved," Ai Tingya said.

Dean Du revealed a tired smile and said, "Actually, I've already applied. It was rejected as expected."

The government's functions were limited. It could ensure that the children in the orphanage would not have to worry about food and clothing at best. They relied on social donations for everything else, but they only accepted them once a year before the new year.

"I told Little Luo this because I hope he won't interfere too much. A child his age is the most arrogant and thinks of everything very simply. I'm afraid he'll lose his confidence after a setback." Dean Du explained.

Ai Tingya's expression darkened. She felt that he had an omnipotent power, perhaps because Luo Feng had taken care of her too well.

However, if she thought about it carefully, Luo Feng was just a high school student with good grades.

She was sensitive and felt that Dean Du was blaming her for telling Luo Feng about the orphanage after explaining so much to her.

Dean Du changed the topic unexpectedly and continued on. "But Little Luo seems to have realized these things. He said that if he wants to open a dessert shop, he wants to give a portion of his shares to the orphanage. This child is too smart. I can't hide anything from him."

"What did you do then?"

"I agreed," Dean Du said with a bitter smile.

It wasn't that she was easily persuaded but that Luo Feng had given her a reason she couldn't refuse.

"Guess what Little Luo told me?" Dean Du leaned back in his chair. "He said that it's a good opportunity for the children. Aren't the children in the orphanage all outstanding like you? Many of them might have to work after high school. He said that this shop will be their guarantee if anyone is willing to enter the dessert industry."

Dean Du would agree to any condition for the sake of the children in the orphanage, not to mention that Luo Feng was giving them half of the shop for free.

"Little Luo asked me to take a look at the address of the new shop tomorrow and start transferring money," Dean Du continued. "He asked me to hide it from you first so that it would not affect your revision. He wanted to tell you when the shop opens. He's really a good person."

Ai Tingya felt a warm feeling in her heart hearing Dean Du's sigh. Luo Feng was even considerate of her feelings.

"I understand. Let's do as Luo Feng thinks." Ai Tingya stood up and appraised. "This is indeed our best choice at the moment."

Ai Tingya did not go back to sleep after leaving Dean Du's room. Instead, she went to the library.

She was very grateful for Luo Feng's help to the orphanage, but just as Dean Du said, Luo Feng might have thought too simply about opening the shop. She had to think of a complete business model in order to avoid making a loss.

She had to do something!

…

The next morning, Luo Feng saw the two huge dark circles under Ai Tingya's eyes the moment he entered the classroom.

"What did you do last night?" Luo Feng handed the breakfast to Ai Tingya. Today, it was a ham sandwich, clear tea, and the staple boiled eggs.

Ai Tingya exchanged an entire notebook for breakfast and said, "This is the plan I wrote."

Luo Feng flipped through it and said, "Not bad, Little Tingya. You're already thinking of helping me manage my business so early."

He quickly went through the proposal. It ranged from the location of the shop to the selling price of the main product. She even suggested hiring a professional pastry chef as the main sign board and drew a few sketches for the renovation of the shop.

Ai Tingya would definitely be a big shot if she played a simulation entrepreneurial game.

However, Luo Feng was a man who had started a successful business after all. He would have been a big boss now if it weren't for his illness. Ai Tingya was still a high school student, there were many things that she did by the book and her vision couldn't escape the limitations of the lack of experience. 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝑚

If he opened a shop according to Ai Tingya's plan, the shop would be able to survive. However, it would be a couple's small shop at best. The kind where they would have to change locations if the landlord increased the rent.

He would not make a loss and could earn some small money.

No! This was the opposite of his original plan!

His original plan was to invest, make a profit, lose money, invest more, and increase the profit! The faster he lost, the better! He would really make money lying down!

However, Ai Tingya might become very sad if things went according to the original plan. Luo Feng knew best how strong-headed the future female CEO was.

"Let me give you some pointers since you're so sincere." Luo Feng said seriously. "What do you have to do when you receive guidance?"

She had to call him by an intimate name.

Ai Tingya laughed. "Darling, can you tell me what you think?"

"Hehe, first of all, the budget for hiring a professional pastry chef is limited. Moreover, we don't have any connections. We will only be able to hire a medium-level pastry chef who makes similar snacks to other cake shops at most. It won't be competitive in the market."

"Besides when thinking about the cost, snacks and cakes are all fresh. Their shelf life is very short. To be honest, this might be a little expensive for a new shop that doesn't have any regular customers. Therefore, I think a beverage shop is more suitable than a cake shop!"

"Finally, your shop design is much prettier than the old dessert shop on the street. It has the vigor of the young, but it doesn't make people's eyes light up."

Ai Tingya was entranced. "How will it be able to make the other people's eyes light up?"

"Simple and high-end renovations!" Luo Feng smiled, "It is the most eye-catching of all!"

He picked up a pen and outlined a simple bar and seat on the paper. It was separated by a black frame. The black, white, and gray colors could make one feel comfortable.

"The tables and chairs at the bar are wood-colored, so they won't look so stiff," added Luo Feng.

Ai Tingya held the sketch and exclaimed, "It's so beautiful. I've never seen such a beverage shop! Luo Feng, you're so awesome!"

Of course it was beautiful. This was the most popular renovation style in the future. The competition in the beverage shops was not so intense yet. Luo Feng thought that since he wanted to do it well, he might as well set up a brand and occupy the local market first for long-term development. In the future, he will open franchise shops all over the country!

...

46 We Want to Be An Entrepreneur Couple In The Future!

"Luo Feng, what type of milk tea are we going to make?" Ai Tingya asked curiously. She was already completely attracted by Luo Feng's plan and couldn't help but want to continue listening.

Luo Feng cleared his throat: "What did you call me?"

"Darling~"

"You repeated the term."

"…Hubby," Ai Tingya said sweetly. "Hurry up and tell me. Otherwise, class will start."

Luo Feng continued, "Currently, the milk tea on the market is basically made of milk tea powder. It's all chemical, and you'll get tired of it after drinking it a few times."

Ai Tingya nodded in agreement. She had always been puzzled that a cup of milk tea made from powder in the shop would actually cost three yuan! The juice powder she bought for eight yuan was enough for the entire orphanage to drink for two days. Luo Feng had bought her a cup before, and she didn't want to drink it again after drinking it once.

"Our shop has to use fresh milk, fresh fruits, cream, and so on. We definitely have to use real materials if we take the high-end route. Only then would the customers feel at ease when they see it and pay. What's more, shop assistants can quickly get used to it after simple training, saving the salary of a professional pastry chef. We can also launch new products every quarter to constantly attract our customers."

Luo Feng thought about the dazzling array of milk tea brands in the future. Xing Miaomiao liked to try new stuff when he was with her in his previous life. She would try every new product launch and throw it to Luo Feng after taking a sip.

During that period of time, Luo Feng's face was clearly round. It was more than enough for him to be a milk tea evaluator. It was too easy for him to pick a few hot favorites.

"You're so awesome!" Ai Tingya was stunned. "I didn't know you had such a business mind."

Ai Tingya and Dean Du were worried that Luo Feng thought business was too easy last night. In fact, they underestimated Luo Feng! He was completely a business genius with great foresight!

Luo Feng was overjoyed by the praise and continued, "This is nothing. We have to expand its scale and influence after the milk tea shop is officially on track!"

"What influence?" Ai Tingya did not understand how a drink could affect anything.

"The brand's influence, silly girl. Create a brand with a story. I thought that since we started with drinks, we can start from the food industry and expand. In the future, we'll be Luo Feng and Wife entrepreneurs. We can cross over to other industries after we make enough profits…"

"Luo Feng and Wife…" Ai Tingya blushed and couldn't listen to the rest.

"It's fine if you like Ai Tingya and Husband better. I'm perfectly happy to be a freeloader." Luo Feng said mischievously.

Ai Tingya felt even more embarrassed. She felt so dizzy that she seemed to be floating in the clouds. The business map that Luo Feng had built was too far away for her, but husband and wife seemed to be a matter in front of her.

"Let's do as you say. I want to earn money, a lot of money to support you!" Ai Tingya was full of fighting spirit and was prepared to go all out.

Luo Feng thought to himself that this girl was too easily excitable seeing her gusto.

Actually, Luo Feng did not explain clearly that the cost of using real materials would be much higher compared to the milk tea powder condensed from technology.

Milk tea shops that competed in the future might also use fruit-flavored gel and various powders, but those were commercial products that only appeared after the industry formed. They were very rare on the market.

However, Luo Feng wasn't afraid of losing money. A small milk tea shop couldn't accommodate his ambition. He had to build up his brand even if he had to support it!

"Then what should we name our milk tea shop?" Ai Tingya said excitedly.

"Tingya Milk Tea?"

"F*ck you, I'm being serious!" Ai Tingya said shyly. "We have to think of a name that will make people's eyes light up. It has to be worthy of your shop renovation! Also, it has to have a very good meaning, the kind that can make people smile. What do you think about it being called Green Orange Time? Or Wings of Black Tea. It's very youthful. Young people will definitely like it!"

Ai Tingya became animated as she expressed her thoughts. She was always as calm as the lake, perhaps because of her childhood. Occasionally, the breeze would cause a little ripple before disappearing without a trace, so Luo Feng liked to tease her.

Luo Feng felt that everything he did was worth it now that he saw how energetic she was, like a flower covered in dew in the morning.

"No, no! These names are not good. You have to think of a name for your milk tea shop!" Ai Tingya said seriously.

"Name it. I'll listen to you."

"No!" Ai Tingya said solemnly. "You have to name it!"

"Hm…" Luo Feng thought about it and said, "If we want a foundation… then let's call it 'Good Me'!" 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝒎

"Huh? Good Me… Isn't it too simple?" Ai Tingya was a little surprised, thinking that Luo Feng would give her an ear-piercing name.

Luo Feng said affirmatively, "Let's settle on this name. It can directly show that we sell milk tea1. It's easy to remember and has a strong foundation. It's easy to make up… ah no… to tell the brand story in the future."

"Alright, it's indeed a good name." Ai Tingya smiled sweetly.

There was still a hint of foolishness in this fangirl's admiration. Luo Feng helplessly stroked her head. How did this silly girl become a female CEO in the future? She believed everything he said, and she suffered a loss because of her age.

However, her strong self-esteem hasn't changed at all no matter her age. Luo Feng had no choice but to give up on losing money and start a milk tea brand.

Previously, he thought that life in Third High School was a little boring. Now, he really had something to do.

…

Dean Du chose many shops, but they were all not satisfactory. The rent on the high-traffic commercial street was ridiculously high, and the low-end places with fewer rents were not good.

She was especially cautious when looking for a place since Luo Feng was going to pay for it. She couldn't make up her mind after being overcautious. She still couldn't find a suitable location after looking around for two or three days.

In the end, it was Luo Feng who made the decision to find a shop near their high school. Students were the main force for milk tea consumption after all.

She left the search for the shop to Luo Feng and Ai Tingya, who were nearby. Dean Du went to contact the raw materials supplier and the renovation team. She could lower the cost to a very low level with her status as the Dean of the orphanage.

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya had class during the day, so they could only take advantage of the time when they were eating to look for sublet shops nearby.

"It's not as easy as I thought." Ai Tingya pounded her sore legs and looked at her watch. It was almost time for evening self-study again. They would have to go back empty-handed again today.

"It's too easy to earn money from students. There are too few subletters. We have to search carefully."

Luo Feng looked at the crowded shops around him and felt troubled. This matter would be much easier to handle if he had an acquaintance who understood the situation.

The two of them held hands and looked at the shops one by one.

"What are you two doing here? It's almost time for evening self-study." Just as the two of them were in a dilemma, Teacher Yu rode on the electric scooter station by the roadside and looked at the two of them in confusion.

47 Reverse Bargaining, Are You Alright?

"It's almost time for evening self-study. Why are the two of you still wandering outside? You can't be proud even if your results are good." Teacher Yu muttered. The two in front of her were important subjects of protection. She could not be careless.

"Teacher Yu, we're looking for a shop for rent. We'll go back after walking around a bit more." Ai Tingya said honestly.

Teacher Yu pushed the electric scooter and said, "Why are you looking for a shop for rent? Do you want to open a shop?"

Luo Feng said that the search was a request from Dean Du and only said that they were helping.

!

Teacher Yu felt that this was a good thing. She had always taken good care of Ai Tingya and would leave any subsidy opportunities for her. She was willing to help if she could. 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟𝚎ｌ.𝚘ｒｇ

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Teacher Yu smiled and said, "The steamed bun shop in front is owned by my friend. He's going to rent it out soon."

Luo Feng heard that it was such a coincidence: "Then please take us there"

"Please"? Teacher Yu was jolted awake by the sudden respect in his voice and stopped in front of a shop called the Rich Breakfast Shop. There were still two steamed buns in the steamer.

There was a wall in the middle of the shop. The 60 square meters shop was divided into two halves. Luo Feng felt that this shop was a little small, but they could rent it since the location was suitable.

After Teacher Yu went into the inner room asked them to come out once she confirmed that they wanted to rent it out.

"He's my junior high school classmate. His surname is Guan. You can call him Uncle Guan," Teacher Yu introduced.

Behind her was a burly man with dark skin and an honest smile on his face. His mouth was wide open, revealing a row of white glowing teeth.

"Hello, Uncle Guan." Luo Feng and Ai Tingya greeted obediently.

Uncle Guan looked at Teacher Yu shyly. The man's face was a little red with other emotions.

"Are the two of you the ones who want to rent a shop?" Uncle Guan asked.

He had heard Teacher Yu tell him the general story when he was inside just now. He was a little surprised when he heard that the students wanted to rent a shop. He did not expect it to be true.

"Yes, Uncle Guan, when are you going to rent this shop out?" Luo Feng said.

"Before the end of this month. Breakfast is too exhausting. I'm preparing to change my profession. When will you come over to settle the procedures?"

"How does tomorrow sound?"

"Alright, what kind of shop are you going to open? I'll leave everything you can use for you," Uncle Guan said readily. He glanced at Teacher Yu again as he spoke. His meaning was too obvious. This was all because of Teacher Yu.

"We are going to open a milk tea shop." Luo Feng replied.

"My shop is a little big if you want to open a milk tea shop." In Uncle Guan's impression, there were very few shops that only sold milk tea because a pile of flavored milk tea powder could not take up a large area. A small glass cabinet could do it. Such snack shops would have fried skewers of snacks tied up and sold.

"Maybe there will be desserts in the future." Luo Feng said.

"Alright then. I won't lie to you on account that you're Teacher Yu's students. I paid 80,000 yuan for a year's rent. Adding in the 90,000 yuan transfer fee, and it's a total of 150,000 yuan. I really didn't earn anything from you."

Uncle Guan gave a very honest price without the teacher's hint.

Luo Feng believed that what he said was true. The shop was near the school and there would definitely be a lot of people. Moreover, 80,000 yuan might be a price that could only be obtained if they knew someone.

Ai Tingya was very tempted, but Luo Feng did not continue.

"What's wrong? Do you think the price is inappropriate?" Teacher Yu was also very surprised.

"No" Luo Feng shook his head, "Uncle Guan, I think this price…"

"You want it to be lower?"

"It has to be higher." Luo Feng extended two fingers, "200,000 yuan."

?

Uncle Guan frowned and glanced at Teacher Yu. He was sure that he had not heard wrongly from the expression on her face. This child was really raising the price. He felt that 150,000 yuan was too low. He would spend 50,000 yuan more.

"Are you alright, child?" Teacher Yu touched Luo Feng's forehead. He didn't have a fever.

"I'm serious. I just don't think you should suffer, Uncle Guan. It's not easy for everyone to earn money, yet you left something for us. I think 200,000 yuan to rent this shop is worth it."

Luo Feng's face was very serious, but he was scheming behind his back.

Uncle Guan was touched. "Xiao Yu, you taught your student too well. How could you teach him so well?"

He was speechless and did not know how to praise her. He slapped his thigh happily.

Luo Feng continued to make it even more difficult to refuse. "Teacher Yu has always been our most respected teacher. How can we let her friend suffer if we get her help? Moreover, I felt that you are very kind the first time I saw you, Uncle Guan. We might even interact more in the future."

Teacher Yu could not stop smiling hearing the praises for her, so much so that she forgot that class was already starting.

Luo Feng signed a sublet contract with him on the spot and transferred the money to him in order to prevent Uncle Guan from remembering that he was doing business with the orphanage.

However, the returns did not enter his account directly this time to his surprise.

Luo Feng sat in the classroom without reading a single page of his book at night. He kept fiddling with his phone, thinking about when the returns would arrive.

"Are you feeling unwell? Why are you so restless?" Ai Tingya sensed that Luo Feng was swaying uneasily as if he was sitting on a nail chair.

She had long known about Luo Feng's habit of bargaining in the opposite direction. This was the first time he looked so uneasy.

"It's nothing. I just don't feel at ease renting a place. I feel like something's missing."

Why isn't the money in my account yet!

Ai Tingya thought for a moment and said, "By the way, the Dean told me that you wanted to give the orphanage some shares. I think you…"

"That is it!" Luo Feng came to a realization and happily cupped Ai Tingya's face and kissed her.

It was just that he had forgotten to give the orphanage shares, causing the rented shop to not constitute an investment.

"I'm going to the computer room to type up a share transfer contract. Help me cover up". After Luo Feng finished speaking, he grabbed a cover book and ran out of the classroom.

Ai Tingya was stunned by his kiss. Luo Feng was already gone when she reacted.

She touched the place where she was kissed and felt that it was still a little hot. She wanted to tell Luo Feng not to give them the shares and just give the staff a salary when he makes a profit. 200,000 yuan was too much anyway. She doesn't know when she will be able to earn it back.

"Seriously." Ai Tingya leaned on the table and covered her face as she muttered to herself, "How am I supposed to repay you…"

...

She might really have to marry Luo Feng after all that he had done for her.

"Ahem!"

A very deliberate cough came from behind.

Ai Tingya turned around and realized that the entire class was looking at her.

The students were originally quietly reading when they suddenly saw Luo Feng and Ai Tingya kissing from the corner of their eyes. Luo Feng ran away after kissing her.

"Student Ai Tingya, single dogs are innocent." The student beside her reminded kindly.

48 Drink! Why Don't You Drink!

After the share transfer contract was drafted, Ai Tingya brought it back at night and asked Dean Du to sign it. Luo Feng waited until 11 o'clock before the returns of one million yuan came.

Luo Feng gave the orphanage 50% of the shares. He actually wanted to give them 90% if he wasn't afraid of scaring Dean Du. This way, 180,000 yuan of the 200,000 yuan rent would be used as an investment and the return would be 1.8 million yuan.

"It's okay, there's still a long way to go." Luo Feng could only comfort himself in this way.

In the following days, he was busy contacting the renovation team to buy renovation materials.

!

The renovation team that Dean Du introduced was a local veteran. They were very surprised when they received the blueprint of the milk tea shop.

There was always a popular renovation style after all. Even though the businesses were different, the materials used and the shop style were similar. Luo Feng's shop was unique, like a red flower in green grass. 𝙗𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎

The renovation cost was 100,000 yuan, and the return was 500,000 yuan!

Next, he bought the refrigerant heating equipment needed by the milk tea shop and customized a workbench. He spent 150,000 yuan and made a return of 750,000 yuan.

After Luo Feng arranged everything in the shop, he went to buy the ingredients for the drinks. He spent less than 30,000 yuan and made a return of 150,000 yuan.

Luo Feng had already earned a million yuan before the shop even opened for business.

He would not be able to make money as fast by opening a shop and doing business!

Why would Luo Feng only have so little money in his card If Ai Tingya hadn't insisted on not spending Luo Feng's money?

It was also a problem if his girlfriend's character was too good.

The shop was bustling with activity. Luo Feng and Ai Tingya were not idle either. They had to go to the busiest area during their break every week. Then, they would buy the most popular milk teas from various milk tea shops and return to the orphanage to try them one by one.

"Oh my god, I really can't take another sip." Ai Tingya patted her round stomach and lay on the chair aggrievedly. "I feel that the milk tea has already surged into my throat."

"I can't drink anymore either." Xiao Fei, who was beside her, did the same.

She had never hated drinks as much as she did now.

Luo Feng looked at their appetites and said, "Then go out and digest it, let your other companions come in and drink."

"We have to drink some more?" The two of them complained endlessly, their breaths carrying a hint of milk.

"Yes, we'll drink what I made after we finish the ones I bought outside. Let's see which three to use as the master attraction." Luo Feng shook the cup in his hand.

He still had to match the market taste even though he had mastered the combination of countless types of milk teas. They did not have the power to influence people's choice yet. Therefore, they could only be filtered through constant tasting.

"Most of the milk tea outside uses industrial milk essence. I'm really going to vomit from drinking it." Ai Tingya pouted and held her stomach.

When Ai Tingya was young, she had fantasized about opening a cake shop at home. That way, she would have an endless supply of cakes. She no longer felt that her childhood dream was wonderful now that she suddenly had an endless supply of milk tea.

Luo Feng had no resistance to the coquettish Ai Tingya. He carried the empty cup in front of Ai Tingya away and said, "I told you to just have a taste, but you insisted that it was a waste not to finish it. Now, your stomach doesn't feel good, right?"

"But it's really a pity if we just throw them away." Ai Tingya burped, but her thoughts did not waver. The orphanage did not allow wastage!

"Yes, yes, yes. Take a rest. I'll let the others in."

He put down the fruit tea he had just brewed and walked to the entrance. The children playing outside ran away as if they had seen a ghost.

As he ran, he shouted, "Hide quickly, big brother Luo Feng is going to catch another test subject!"

Why did he make himself look like Frankenstein?

"They ran away." Luo Feng said helplessly.

"I'll run too if I can move now." Xiao Fei shook her weak hand.

Luo Feng scratched his head in embarrassment, "Am I that scary?"

He remembered that when he first brought the ingredients here, the children were surrounding him like bees. Not only did he have to concoct drinks, but he also had to prevent the children from drinking the ingredients secretly.

A box full of cream was used up by the kids to spread on their steamed buns in no time.

Moreover, the right to taste a drink had to go through a few rounds of rock, paper, scissors. Only the child who won in the end was qualified to have a drink.

It had only been a few days, but the children were so scared when they saw him now. So saddening.

"There's nothing we can do about it." Ai Tingya spoke about her feelings. "The milk tea you make is like the bright stars in the sky. We think it's all very good, but you insist on us picking out the best ones. It's too difficult for us."

"You're so sweet. I'll reward you with a day of rest." Luo Feng hugged Ai Tingya and kissed her cute hair.

Xiao Fei sat on the chair beside him and could not move. She was forced to watch the couple show off their love.

At this moment, Dean Du walked to the door. She was already used to Luo Feng being in the cafeteria.

"Little Luo, are you making drinks again?" Dean Du leaned over curiously. The dazzling array of materials dazzled her. The sweet smell was very seductive, causing her to take two more sniffs.

Xiao Fei saw her actions and felt that something was wrong. She mouthed, "Dean! Run!"

Dean Du was too attracted by the raw materials and did not see them at all.

Luo Feng smiled and walked over, blocking Xiao Fei. He said to Dean Du, "Dean, why don't you sit down and try the milk tea?"

"Alright, I'll try the young people's food too." Dean Du pulled out a stool and was very happy.

"It's over…" Ai Tingya and Xiao Fei looked at her sympathetically.

Luo Feng liked proactive test subjects, no, tasters. He rolled up his sleeves and gave it another go. His movements were very fast. In just 10 minutes, more than 10 types of drinks were placed in front of Dean Du.

The milk tea was sweet, the fruit tea was fresh, and the roasted immortal herbs were filled with ingredients. It almost covered a few popular flavors on the market. When placed together, it was like a clear palette. The tender color was very pleasing.

Dean Du picked up a glass at the side and said expectantly, "Let me try this first."

"This is Ice-Blended Soy Milk."

"This is the Passion Fruit Chiller."

"Morning Dew Matcha."

"Versailles' Cherries."

"Fire Roasted Oolong."

...

"And…"

"Enough, enough. I really can't drink anymore." Dean Du put down the blanket with difficulty. She could not swallow the fruit in her mouth and could not bear to throw it up. She was in a dilemma.

Luo Feng asked the usual question: "Which drink do you think is good?"

"They're all delicious." Dean Du said sincerely. Luo Feng's milk tea had a unique taste and there was nothing wrong with it.

"This won't do. You guys must have drunk too little to think that they're all delicious." Luo Feng pinched his chin and thought, "Drink more, choose three flavors to make the decision."

Dean Du's expression changed. Only then did she notice the sympathetic gazes of Xiao Fei and Ai Tingya.

Dean Du swallowed the fruit in her mouth with tears in her eyes seeing Luo Feng set up another row of milk tea.

49 Can Luo Feng Reappear In The World Of Business?

Dean Du and the others were walking on the path Luo Feng took.

After a few days of sampling drinks, both Dean Du and Ai Tingya had developed quite an insight.

"This lemon is a little sour. It's better to change to another variety." 𝘣𝑒𝑑𝑛𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"It's too sweet. It's very burdensome for girls who are watching their figures. It's better to lower the sugar content a little. What? There's already a difference of 30% sweetness, 50% sweetness, 70% sweetness, and 100% sweetness? You're so considerate."

!

"It's a little greasy with too much milk. I'm serious. It's not to save on materials."

"It's filled with nutritious grains like eight-treasure porridge. I believe I can definitely sell it well!"

Ai Tingya and Dean Du took turns exchanging ideas and quickly decided on the star products to be promoted by the milk tea shop. Everything seemed to be fine. They were just waiting for the renovation to be completed and the shop to open for business.

But Luo Feng felt that it wasn't over yet.

"Let's set a few more desserts with milk tea. Do you think there's anything else you need to add?" Ai Tingya asked.

"Hm… since we're taking the high-end route, service is very important." Luo Feng said.

The cost of their milk tea was obvious after all. The price would definitely be higher than other milk teas. If there was no other additional value, it would be very difficult for customers to be willing to pay.

"You still want to hire two waiters who specially serve tea?" Ai Tingya did not understand. Would the customers be happy just by saving a few steps?

"Not only serve tea, but can also play games with you or listen to your troubles. I have to make the customers feel that the money was worth it so that they will come again next time."

"Uh… We're just a milk tea shop."

"You don't understand, Tingya. I've been to a kind of shop before. The waitresses inside will change into nice looking clothes and play games with the customers. There will also be a cross-dressing service on specific days."

This description made Ai Tingya feel a little frightened. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Are you sure you went to a serious shop?"

Luo Feng was talking about the maid café. Ai Tingya thought it was a KTV with a special service.

When she was looking for a part-time job in the past, she had heard from others that not only could KTV girls drink and sing, there would also be an additional accompanying singing service. Good-looking girls could earn 10,000 to 20,000 yuan a month.

At that time, she felt that there must be a trick to how easy it was to earn money. Later on, she kept a respectful distance from the gray industry when she found out about what they actually did. Why did Luo Feng get so involved?

"What are you thinking about?" Luo Feng laughed, "I'm talking about having uniforms that match the brand. I'll buy a few if there's anything suitable."

He had to buy the maid uniforms himself.

Only then did Ai Tingya relax. Her filter on Luo Feng did not collapse.

After that, his revision life was the same as before. The maid outfit was too trendy for Luo Feng's small city.

Internet shopping wasn't developed either, so Luo Feng could only find a tailor shop to make it. Sometimes, he would pick up his pen and draw a sketch of a maid uniform when he's inspired. There was nothing wrong but Luo Feng felt like there were two pairs of eyes staring at him.

He thought it was Ai Tingya at first. This silly girl's hobby, other than studying, was to stare at him.

Later, he realized that it was not the case. Ai Tingya's learning progress had been delayed because of the milk tea shop. She had been busy doing questions for the past few days.

Luo Feng searched again and saw that Teacher Yu could always enter his line of sight.

Ads by Pubfuture

Teacher Yu would always glance at him when she returned to the office after class. They would coincidentally bump into Teacher Yu who had returned to school when they were eating at night.

Luo Feng felt like Teacher Yu had something to say to him every time he saw her. However, Teacher Yu turned around and left when their eyes met, making Luo Feng feel like he was doing something bad.

Finally, after their sixth meeting, Teacher Yu mustered her courage and walked over.

"Ai Tingya, come to my office," she said to Ai Tingya.

Ai Tingya was a little surprised. She had been doing quite well recently. She was serious about class and didn't show off her love to Luo Feng. Why would Teacher Yu look for her?

She glanced at Luo Feng beside her and followed Teacher Yu suspiciously. Luo Feng felt that this matter had something to do with him, so he quietly followed and leaned against the door to peek.

After entering the office, Teacher Yu first touched the desk uneasily for a while, but she did not find anything before turning around and sitting down.

She adjusted her glasses and said, "Ai Tingya, how have your studies been?"

"I can keep up with the teachers' progress," Ai Tingya replied obediently.

"That… You and Luo Feng… How's your milk tea shop?"

"… The milk tea shop is still being renovated, but everything is going smoothly."

"Then how about you and Luo Feng…?"

Teacher Yu finally said the main point after going in a big circle. He subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief.

"You mean?" Ai Tingya asked.

The school prohibited puppy love but Luo Feng and her were the exceptions. Everyone has a tacit understanding that they won't put it on the table. Why was she suddenly concerned about their relationship?

Teacher Yu also felt that it wasn't appropriate for her to ask this. She scratched her head and said, "Actually, I have something to ask of Luo Feng."

"Then why don't you just tell Luo Feng? I'll call him over." Ai Tingya said obediently.

"Don't, don't, don't." Teacher Yu grabbed Ai Tingya and said, "This matter is a little forced, so I don't know how to tell Luo Feng. I want you to help me pass on the message."

She looked around to make sure that no other teachers were paying attention to the conversation.

Then she lowered her voice and said, "Can you ask Luo Feng to help tuition your classmates? Many of our students' scores are too low. It's the last sprint now. I saw Luo Feng explaining very well last time, your classmates are able to understand."

Ai Tingya said awkwardly, "But Luo Feng still has to revise too. He might not agree."

Luo Feng, who was eavesdropping outside, nodded in agreement. He had to revise occasionally as well. Teaching the entire class would take up time, and it wouldn't be as targeted as tutoring Lei Jin with more people.

"That's why I need you, Ai Tingya! Actually, it won't take up too much of Luo Feng's time. It's just an evening self-study session. Let Luo Feng refine the key points!" Teacher Yu excitedly grabbed Ai Tingya's shoulders and said, "Our classmates are counting on you!"

When Luo Feng, who was outside, heard this, he felt that something was wrong. That silly girl, Ai Tingya, would definitely be tricked by Teacher Yu.

"Alright," Ai Tingya agreed. "I'll tell him, but I have no choice if he doesn't agree."

" Luo Feng definitely won't refuse if you are the one who asks him. I am not a misjudge of character." Teacher Yu was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth. She even walked Ai Tingya out of the office.

Luo Feng looked at Ai Tingya's back and continued to stick close to the door, carefully looking inside.

...

At this moment, Teacher Zhang from Class Two held the paper in one hand and a thermos in the other. He walked to his desk and sat down, laughing disdainfully at Teacher Yu.

50 You Promised To Wear It For Me!

In Luo Feng's memory, Teacher Zhang and Teacher Yu have never gotten along. Perhaps it was because the two of them are similar in age and experience, the competitive awards will always collide.

In addition, the two of them were both form teachers. The class they were in charge of was only separated by a wall, so it was inevitable that they would secretly compete seriously.

Luo Feng was originally wondering why his teacher suddenly wanted him to tutor the entire class. However, he immediately understood when he saw Teacher Zhang's arrogant appearance.

"Teacher Yu, are you mobilizing your classmate Ai Tingya again?" Teacher Zhang teased. "Ai Tingya is already working very hard. Don't give the student too much pressure. The other students might need more guidance."

In other words— Why are you so biased? You only look at those with good results and don't see those with bad results.

Teacher Yu glared at him angrily and happened to see a stack of papers under his arm.

The last sprint of the third year of high school was nothing more than doing questions. The teachers of each subject would collect the real questions from the previous years or get the targeted papers from the private school if they were related.

When Teacher Yu saw the words "Provincial High School" on the paper, she felt very upset.

Teacher Zhang intentionally or unintentionally flaunted the paper in his hand. He felt that what he had said just now was not satisfying enough and said, "Teacher Yu, you only have two top students. The rest are mostly ordinary students. Don't let the children's three years of hard work down."

With that, he left proudly with the papers. ｂｅ𝚍ｎｏｖｅ𝚕．ｃｏｍ

Luo Feng waited for Teacher Zhang to walk away before glancing into the office. Teacher Yu looked at the lesson plan and sighed. She, who was usually unforgiving with her words, rarely said a word in the face of Teacher Zhang's provocation.

Even though Class One was ranked first or second in the cohort, the average score of the class was still lower than Class Two's. This meant that there was a huge difference between the students. Teacher Zhang blamed this on the fact that Teacher Yu only valued Luo Feng, Ai Tingya.

Teacher Yu was speechless. It was not that she had never thought of helping to improve the average score, but she could not get good real questions. She could only watch as Teacher Zhang moved sets of good questions to his own class.

Luo Feng looked at Teacher Yu's lonely back view as if she was an old monk meditating. He suddenly understood why she wanted him to tutor the class.

Luo Feng returned to class. Ai Tingya pulled him to his seat when saw him return.

"Where did you go? I couldn't find you anywhere," Ai Tingya said.

"I just went to the store to eat something. Why are you looking for me?" Luo Feng asked even though he knew the answer.

Ai Tingya bit her lip and hesitated for a moment before telling him what had happened in the office.

He revealed an ambiguous smile and said, "What do you want me to do?"

Ai Tingya said foolishly, "Of course I hope you can help our classmates, but you're the one who's busy and it will take up your time, so you still have to make the decision yourself. However, I'll support you no matter what you do!"

She fully respected Luo Feng's choice and was only a messenger.

Luo Feng felt a little disappointed. He felt that Ai Tingya didn't understand why Teacher Yu looked for her. At a time like this, he would definitely agree if she acted coquettishly with him.

The scene he imagined didn't appear, so Luo Feng could only do it himself.

He frowned and pretended to be troubled. "It's not impossible to agree… But you have to agree to one condition."

"What condition?"

"What should you call me at a time like this?"

"…Sweetheart, what's the condition?" Ai Tingya felt that Luo Feng was teasing her again.

Luo Feng thought about it and said, "The uniforms are almost ready. Try them on for me."

Ai Tingya thought that it was something serious. That was it? She would try it even without him saying anything. She had to go to the milk tea shop to help in the future after all.

"I promise you," she answered innocently.

"Sure" Luo Feng grinned, "Tomorrow I'll let Lei Jin go back to his home alone."

…

The next night.

Ai Tingya looked at the few pieces of tender-colored fabric on Luo Feng's bed, but they didn't look like proper clothes at all.

"Is this the uniform you found?"

She felt that she had overestimated Luo Feng's taste. She wouldn't have agreed so easily if she had asked a few more questions yesterday. As expected, Luo Feng didn't hold back his f*rts.

Luo Feng chuckled as he picked up a piece of lolitha clothing and said, "These are just samples. I'll prepare to mass produce them only if you look good in them."

Of course, it won't be mass-produced. Luo Feng spent a bomb to get these clothes overnight. Lolita's puffy shoulder sleeves? No! Change them into straps! The maid's skirt was cut in half, and the back is made into bare-back straps. The cheongsam was slit up to the thigh, and there was a black silk professional suit!

"I don't want it!" Ai Tingya rejected decisively. "You really did not go to a proper shop!"

"But you promised me yesterday." Luo Feng said pitifully, "I'll still do it even if you go back on your word but are you really not going to reward me?"

Ai Tingya choked. She had always been amenable to coaxing but not coercion. Luo Feng retreated in order to advance and put her on low moral ground.

"No… Not wearing it." Ai Tingya looked determined, but her heart had already waived.

"Alright, then let's start tutoring" Luo Feng didn't say anything else as he sat down and opened his book.

A trace of disappointment flashed across Ai Tingya's face. What was wrong with Luo Feng? He should be forcing himself on her now. Father and Mother Luo were staying at a relative's house and won't be back until tomorrow and Lei Jin was not here after all…

A man and a woman in the same room. With the right time, place, and people, how could Luo Feng study even with his strong willpower?

Ai Tingya sat beside Luo Feng, her heart racing as she kept glancing at the clothes on the bed.

"Tingya, focus." Luo Feng said calmly.

He felt that it was normal for her not to agree. These clothes were still too advanced for the times. The tailor looked at Luo Feng a few more times when he received the blueprint. He definitely thought that Luo Feng was an indecent person, let alone Ai Tingya.

It was fine. There was still a long way to go. He would slowly teach her to accept it in the future.

"Alright." Ai Tingya bit her lip. Why was she the one feeling distraught? She broke the agreement, but he would still keep his promise. Would he be disappointed in her?

Ai Tingya did not listen to a single word during tuition.

"It's getting late. Let me send you back." Luo Feng helped Ai Tingya pack her books.

Ai Tingya stood where she was and struggled for a while before saying, "A pen just rolled into the gap behind the table. Help me find it. I'll go to the bathroom first and be back soon."

"Okay." Luo Feng squatted down and reached out.

...

When he was not paying attention, Ai Tingya quickly took a shirt with seemingly the most fabric and ran into the bathroom.

Luo Feng searched through the crack twice and found the eraser and one dollar coin that had been missing for a month but he did not find the pen that Ai Tingya mentioned.

He stood up and patted the dust off his hands. He heard Ai Tingya open the door. "I didn't find your pen. I have extra. You…"

Luo Feng paused. Ai Tingya, who was wearing a professional suit, was standing in front of him and looking at him in embarrassment.

51 Sense Of Career Crisis Strikes Again!

Ai Tingya was an honest person and did not forget to put on the matching black stockings.

She was now curvaceous, with a curvy chest and a seductive waist after nearly a year of feeding. Even Xing Miaomiao, who was proud of her figure, felt inferior to her.

Luo Feng seemed to see the shadow of the female CEO from his previous life again, but the current Ai Tingya looked a little more inexperienced.

"Luo Feng, this dress is so tight." Ai Tingya tugged at her short skirt in embarrassment.

The professional suit wrapped tightly around Ai Tingya's body, and the edge extended along her curves. Luo Feng would not say that he had specially bought one size smaller.

"Then do you want to try the cheongsam?" Luo Feng leaned closer to Ai Tingya and guided her with a naughty smile.

Ai Tingya looked up and glared at Luo Feng. The slit of your cheongsam is about to reach my armpits. How can I wear it out? Only this works suit attire looks more decent.

"Do you think I'm stupid? You're clearly teasing me!" Ai Tingya twisted Luo Feng's arm unhappily.

Luo Feng felt the pain while lavishing that the shy Ai Tingya was too cute. He wrapped his arms around Ai Tingya's waist and said, "You put on the clothes obediently even though you know that I'm teasing you. Ai Tingya, you really like me very much."

Ads by Pubfuture

"Who likes you?" Ai Tingya pushed him gently twice but did not push him away. She leaned on Luo Feng's shoulder and said stubbornly, "I'm just fulfilling my promise. Don't flatter yourself. Hmph."

Then, she tugged at her clothes and said, "This shirt is so strange. Even though it's a little tight, I can fit in it."

Luo Feng kissed her hair and said proudly, "Of course, I bought them according to your measurements. The other clothes are also tailored according to your measurements. They fit you better."

"How do you know my three sizes?" Ai Tingya asked in surprise. She didn't even know what her three sizes were.

Luo Feng said, "It's very simple, by observation and sense of touch."

After saying that, he did not forget to pinch the hand on his waist. It was soft and felt very good.

Ai Tingya pushed Luo Feng away and smiled. "Don't do anything unnecessary. I'm ignoring you!"

After saying that, she still felt that it was not enough. She pinched Luo Feng again, stuck out her tongue mischievously, and ran back to the bathroom to change.

At this moment, Luo Feng heard the door open. He stuck his head out and saw Father and Mother Luo standing at the door anxiously. Mother Luo kicked off her shoes in a panic.

"Little Feng, why didn't you answer my call?" Mother Luo ran over and said worriedly. She grabbed Luo Feng and flipped him around to see if he was still intact.

"I'll put it on silent when I study."

"That's good. My right eyelid keeps twitching today. I keep feeling that something bad is going to happen and you're not answering your phone. I thought something had happened to you!" Mother Luo patted her chest in shock.

Father Luo said, "Don't do this again. You have to answer the phone, understand?"

Luo Feng took out his phone and looked at it. Good lord, there were 38 missed calls! They continued to phone him up to two minutes before they entered. No wonder his parents came back in the middle of the night.

"I'm sorry for making you worry. It won't happen again." Luo Feng apologized sincerely.

Mother Luo looked at her sensible son and felt relieved. However, she felt that Luo Feng's posture against the door frame was very strange. He had filled the gap in the door to block the view inside. What was even stranger was that she did not see Ai Tingya. She should be at home at this time.

"Did Tingya go home?" Mother Luo asked, but her eyes darted into the gap.

She saw a few beautiful dresses on the bed. They were styles she had never seen before, and the fabric was ridiculously scarce.

Mother Luo had never seen such a scene before and could not help but take a few more glances.

"She went to the bathroom. I'm going to send her back soon." Luo Feng moved his body to block it and looked again.

The mother and son looked at each other as if they were fighting an offensive and defensive battle. Father Luo, who was beside them, could not help but look in. Then, his face turned red.

He grabbed his wife, who was about to enter the house, and said, "Our son has grown up. Don't enter his room."

"But I saw a few good-looking clothes…" Mother Luo did not understand. The more she was not allowed to see, the more she wanted to see them.

Father Luo could only whisper to his wife seeing that he had no choice. Mother Luo's face turned red as she looked at Luo Feng meaningfully and revealed a smile that said, "I understand."

?

Luo Feng had goosebumps from being stared at. He heard Father Luo say, "The pressure of the college entrance examination is understandable. Young people, pay attention. Safety is also very important."

"No, I…"

Father Luo raised his hand to stop him without waiting for Luo Feng to explain. Father Luo and Mother Luo did not care even if Luo Feng said that he was the one wearing these clothes. They flew back to the master bedroom and locked the door.

A few minutes later, Ai Tingya slowly came out of the bathroom. She heard Luo Feng's conversation with his parents and knew that they had misunderstood.

"What do you think we should do?" Ai Tingya asked Luo Feng. What if she lost her reputation?

"What can we do? Why don't we make it a reality?" Luo Feng became even more unrestrained. Everyone around them gave their blessings when they were in love. It was only a matter of time, right?

"You're really… I'm going back." Ai Tingya wanted to scold him, but she couldn't bear to. She angrily threw the clothes at Luo Feng and ran out.

Luo Feng knew that she would be waiting for him to send her back by bicycle, so he calmly took Ai Tingya's bag and walked out.

On the way back, Ai Tingya hugged Luo Feng's waist obediently and was so angry that she did not say a word.

…

His revision life continued.

The next evening, Luo Feng stood in the corridor in a daze after dinner. He could hear the sound of Teacher Yu's high heels from afar.

He turned his head and saw Teacher Yu walking over with her lesson plan. Teacher Zhang carried a new stack of papers and walked into Class Two proudly in front of her.

Teacher Yu walked past Luo Feng. The two of them looked at each other and nodded at the same time.

They walked into the classroom one after another. When the students saw that it was the form teacher presiding over the evening self-study, they were very disappointed. They all knew that Teacher Yu was strict and did not dare to be lazy at all.

"We'll have class tonight instead of self-study," Teacher Yu said as she slammed the table.

"Huh?" The students were even sadder. After listening for a day, their ears were getting calluses.

"Huh what?" Teacher Yu said sternly. "Luo Feng will give you the main point today. Take out your books!"

"Yay!" There was a cheer from below.

Teacher Yu almost vomited blood. What do you mean? You're happy just because Luo Feng is giving a lecture. You all seem dead when I give a lecture. Is my teaching really that bad?

...

However, she was the one who called him over.

Teacher Yu endured her anger and walked down the podium to change seats with Luo Feng.

"I'm here again today. Please forgive me for not speaking well." Luo Feng scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

Originally, it was just a humble opening statement. Unexpectedly, a classmate suddenly shouted, "No! Teacher Luo, your lecture was very good. I love listening to your lecture!"

This "teacher" made Teacher Yu's heart ache. She had taught them for three years, but she was not even as good as Luo Feng's one lecture?!

52 There's A Reason For The Public Display Of Affection!

"Thank you for your support." Luo Feng was calm, "Everyone, take out your books. Class is starting."

"Okay!" The students were like obedient primary school students. They would answer positively no matter what they were told to do. The harmonious classroom atmosphere made Teacher Yu go crazy with envy.

A female classmate raised her hand and said, "Teacher Luo, can I make a suggestion before we begin?"

"Sure."

"Can you not show off your love with Ai Tingya? I don't want to eat dog food anymore."

"Teacher Luo likes Ai Tingya. Many of his actions are subconscious. Sometimes, it's hard to remember. Everyone, please tolerate him on the account of Teacher Luo's hard work." Lei Jin stood up and said without waiting for Luo Feng to speak.

He felt very unbalanced. I've been eating dog food for so long to obtain good results. Everyone has to eat it together!

"But Ai Tingya is very pitiful. She's always being whipped to answer questions," said the bottom-feeder who was afraid of answering questions.

Luo Feng came out to smooth things over. "Thank you for your opinion, but I think I have to explain to everyone. I keep mentioning Ai Tingya to motivate everyone."

"Ha."

Teacher Yu's uncontrollable voice sounded in the silent classroom. She had been a teacher for almost 20 years and had never seen a public display of affection that could inspire people. Luo Feng was getting better at lying.

"I'm serious," Luo Feng said sincerely. "Imagine if you had such a good girlfriend like Ai Tingya. Would you want to show off?"

The boys in the class were the first to agree. They were all head over heels for Ai Tingya and nodded profusely looking at her cute face and pure eyes. If they had a beautiful girlfriend, they would want to carry her photo on their backs and introduce her to everyone, even if their girlfriend was not by their side.

Luo Feng continued, "Why do I have such a good girlfriend like Ai Tingya? Is it because I'm handsome?" ｂｅ𝚍ｎｏ𝚟𝚎ｌ.𝚌𝚘ｍ

"Isn't that so?" The female classmate retorted heartbreakingly. "Teacher Luo, you're very handsome!"

The classroom roared with laughter again.

Luo Feng also smiled. "Ahem, I'm just not ugly. That's not the point. In the past, no one was willing to be my girlfriend when my results were bad."

As soon as he finished speaking, the students' gazes gathered on one spot. It was not on Ai Tingya, but on Xing Miaomiao.

She was once Luo Feng's rumored girlfriend. Luo Feng had always been at her beck and call, but she had never agreed. So even a shallow girl like Xing Miaomiao would judge a person based on results.

The students immediately came to a realization and nodded in agreement with an "I see" expression.

"Students, close your eyes and fantasize about meeting smart and beautiful seniors or juniors after you get into a good university. The female students can see an eight-pack senior helping you move your luggage. Do you feel like wandering in the sea of knowledge now?"

"That's right!" The students were full of fighting spirit.

Luo Feng decided. "Just maintain this enthusiasm! Keep it up! Believe me, you'll have a good job after studying in a good university. You'll have a career and love!"

"Teacher Luo, let's start the class!"

Teacher Yu was caught between laughter and tears when she saw the lifeless classroom seem to have been washed by chicken blood.

Luo Feng knew too well what the children were thinking. Telling them to study for the rise of their country was like telling elementary school students that you have to be a scientist when you grow up. It was better to talk about a lady's slender waist and long legs.

These words were difficult to say as a teacher, but Luo Feng could say them openly.

The lecture officially began.

Teacher Yu realized that Luo Feng was really magical. Not only was he good at studying, but he was also very knowledgeable. This was probably what it meant to read a book a hundred times. Luo Feng seemed to have attended high school a few times and summarized his understanding.

His teaching method was like peeling cabbage. He peeled it layer by layer, revealing the most straightforward core, then fed it to his classmates.

Moreover, he would get Ai Tingya to explain every time there was a most important point. The students knew that they had to take note of it and take advantage of his public display of affection to write down their notes.

Most importantly, it was Luo Feng's identity as a student. Teacher Yu felt that she had been a teacher for too long and that it was no longer difficult for her to teach knowledge countless times. Luo Feng was a student to begin with, so he could judge knowledge from the perspective of the students. The way he conveyed it was also easier for the students to accept.

After the lesson, other than Ai Tingya's flushed face, everything else was very good.

It had been a long time since Teacher Yu had written so quickly. She had recorded all of Luo Feng's teaching techniques so that she could improve the way she lectured and strive to win at the starting line when she led the next class. Move over, Teacher Zhang of Class Two and the exclusive questions of the province!

"Teacher Yu, what are you writing?" The boy on the other side leaned over. "You are taking notes too?"

Teacher Yu covered her notebook and glared at the boy. "Pay attention to the class. How dare you be distracted while I'm here?"

The boy said aggrievedly, "Teacher Yu, you're so fierce. Teacher Luo wouldn't be like this."

Then, he stared at Luo Feng on the stage in admiration, regretting not meeting him sooner.

"…?" Teacher Yu did not know whether to laugh or cry. Would she still have any prestige as a form teacher if she were to put down the same thing that she approved of?!

She took two deep breaths to calm herself down. Who asked these little ancestors to take the college entrance examination? She had to tolerate them.

After the class, Luo Feng wrote the last stroke on the board, and warm applause sounded from below the stage!

"Thank you, Teacher Luo. So my understanding method has always been wrong. Thank you for correcting me in time!"

"I'm sorry, Teacher Luo. We shouldn't have said that you were showing off your love. You've really been thinking about us. I remember the main point very well. I won't forget it for the rest of my life!"

"Long live Teacher Luo! I can already see my seniors waving at me!"

"Ai Tingya, if my studies become better, are you willing to date me?"

Why were there dangers lurking in these words?

Luo Feng smiled bitterly. His results had yet to improve, but he was already thinking of poaching her away. "Thank you for your cooperation, students. I'm also very happy that you've gained something, but there's something very important I have to remind you of."

The students stuck their heads out and stretched their ears, thinking that it was some test secret.

Luo Feng cleared his throat and said, "Ai Tingya is mine."

"Tsk!" The students booed. You're still doing this to show off your love!

In the following days, Luo Feng would lecture for an hour every night. The students looked forward to the evening self-study the most. The learning atmosphere in Class One was much better, so much better that Teacher Zhang of Class Two was pissed.

He felt an impending crisis, but there was no other way. He could only find more papers for the students to do. The students of Class Two complained endlessly as they looked at the papers one after another.

53 Teacher Yu Has Good Potential To Carry Goods

Luo Feng did not delay the matter with the milk tea shop while he continued his studies.

He wrote down all his thoughts and arrangements for the milk tea shop on paper. He even drew two renovation diagrams and handed them to Dean Du to help keep an eye on the shop.

The master of the renovation team was especially serious since someone was guarding it everyday. More importantly, Luo Feng paid very readily. Not only did he work hard to renovate the shop, but he also placed his order first for many custom-made furniture.

The renovation of the shop was completed in just a month. It was similar to Luo Feng's rendering.

The ingredients for the cutlery to make milk tea had long been bought. Luo Feng had already used them to do several rounds of experiments. There were many children in the orphanage so they had a lot of hands. He moved the things to the shop after just two trips.

Luo Feng asked Dean Du to choose an auspicious day and prepare to open for business!

…

A very special shop appeared on Xueyou Street. The outer wall was replaced by huge glass, and one could see the neat furnishings in the shop at a glance. The black, white, and gray main colors were low-key and high-end, and the wooden furniture emitted a natural warmth.

One would be attracted by the exquisite renovation and could not help but admire it up close if they were passing by the opposite street. The nearby residents heard that there was a very unique milk tea shop and gathered around.

On the first day of opening, the milk tea shop was filled with people.

When Dean Du saw the lively scene, she was so happy that he could not close her mouth. She stood outside the shop to greet the customers and to protect the fresh flower opening stand.

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya also took time off to help.

"Director, be careful."

There were too many people. A fat uncle accidentally bumped into Dean Du. Ai Tingya quickly went over to support her.

"Hahaha, I'm old and useless. Go in and help Lu Zhao," Dean Du said with a smile.

Luo Feng had poached Lu Zhao from other milk tea shops. He just met her recently on his investigation of the market's taste. Luo Feng sat in the shop for a few minutes and realized that Lu Zhao had managed the milk tea shop well. Hence, he offered a high price and asked her to come over.

Lu Zhao had good management skills. She divided the seven shop assistants into three groups. One group of two went to the street entrance to distribute flyers to attract customers. The other group was to greet the customers in the shop. The last group would make drinks. Everyone would guard their respective positions and was orderly amidst the work.

Among the seven shop assistants, four were waiters hired by Luo Feng. They were all fair and beautiful girls wearing custom-made black dresses and white aprons. They had the charm of maids, but they were not too bold.

The other three were children from the orphanage. The taste of milk tea was the core competitiveness of the shop, so Luo Feng only told insiders the recipe. They were slightly younger than Ai Tingya by two years and could earn some money in the shop.

Almost all the children in the orphanage at Xiao Fei's age knew how to make the milk tea. For example, Xiao Fei was more willing to earn money than study. She also solved the problem of the milk tea shop.

"There are so many customers." Dean Du was overjoyed. "Isn't the 20% discount too much? If I had known, I would have given less."

Luo Feng's method of attracting customers was a discount. Facing a discount, even those who did not like drinks would enter and take a look.

Ai Tingya was also very happy. She was very confident in the taste of her shop's milk tea.

Luo Feng was silent as he leaned against the door and watched the guests enter and leave.

The price could not be suppressed because the ingredients were expensive. A cup of milk tea in a normal milk tea shop was three yuan. The cheapest eight yuan in Good Me's shop was 6.4 yuan even after a 20% discount. For a third-tier city, six yuan was more than enough to eat a bowl of noodles.

Most of the customers who entered the shop were curious. They wanted to go in and experience the milk tea shop that they had never seen before, but not many people actually bought it.

Luo Feng roughly estimated that only one out of six people would pay.

"Why do I feel that there are very few people buying milk tea?" Ai Tingya realized the same problem and realized that the price was too high.

"It's alright, Tingya. It's only the first day of business. It will take time for the guests to accept it. We can wait and see for a few more days." Luo Feng's mentality was as stable as an old dog.

He decided to give a discount for half a month to create demand. When customers got used to the life of milk tea, he would restore the original price. At that time, customers who were obsessed with milk tea would still be willing to pay.

In any case, Luo Feng would make money even if he made losses.

He did not panic at all.

"Oh my, you're really here."

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded from behind.

Teacher Yu also took the time to come over and take a look at the new shop during her lunch break.

As soon as Dean Du saw Teacher Yu, she welcomed her warmly. "Teacher Yu, you're really an honor to our shop. Please come in!"

"Dean Du, you're welcome. Go ahead. I'll follow Ai Tingya and the others," Teacher Yu said with a smile.

The two of them had met a few times and were considered acquaintances. Dean Du gave Ai Tingya a few instructions before walking into the shop.

The milk tea shop's business was booming. Teacher Yu smiled and said, "Congratulations, congratulations. It's a good day to open."

"It's all thanks to the shop recommended by Teacher. The location is very good. Try it too," Luo Feng said.

Teacher Yu hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Forget it, forget it. It's easy for me to gain weight if I drink sweet food at my age. I even have acne. Don't seduce me."

She was not allowed to refuse the opening of the new shop. Luo Feng immediately became a professional salesperson and introduced, "You can choose the sweetness of the milk tea in our shop. If you don't like milk tea, there's also fruit tea. It's all fresh fruit juice."

Teacher Yu hesitated for a moment and swallowed. "Is it really that good?"

Luo Feng patted his chest and said, "The operation is transparent to the buyers. Let's go. I'll treat you to a drink."

Teacher Yu walked in and said as she walked, "Forget it. I'll buy a cup to add to your joy."

Teacher Yu's Difficult Choice Syndrome erupted like never before standing in front of the menu. Every milk tea was so cutely named and felt very delicious. The color of the milk tea was also very fresh and cute.

A few minutes later, Teacher Yu finally hesitated over the results of the window. "Then I'll have this Oolong Peach. Not too sweet."

"Is a peach oolong with 10% sugar okay?"

"Sure."

The shop assistant's answer was energetic. Teacher Yu felt like she had returned to her teenage years.

She was even more surprised when she received her anticipated milk tea. The light pink oolong tea had the fragrance of peaches. Teacher Yu took a sip and felt extremely stunned. She had never drunk such an adaptation of a fruit tea!

"It's so delicious!" Teacher Yu praised repeatedly before she could swallow the peach in her mouth. 𝓫𝓮𝒹𝓷ℴ𝓿ℯ𝓵.𝓬ℴ𝓶

The other guests who were still watching were also moved by her emotions and came forward.

"Give me one too."

...

"I have to choose the sugar level here? You're so particular here."

"There's a reason why it's expensive. Give me one of these."

Teacher Yu's enjoyment attracted many customers. Luo Feng suddenly understood why there would be food bloggers in the future. Someone who ate food deliciously could really stimulate others' appetite.

He could also set up an internet celebrity company when he had the time in the future. He planned his future development direction and prepared to expand his business.

54 I Love Him, So I Can't Owe Him

The first day of business ended in chaos.

"Four Seasons Spring Tea, 32 cups."

"Taro Boba Milk Green, 25 cups."

"Hundred Fragrances Trio, 11 cups."

!

Ai Tingya leaned on the table and checked the receipts one by one. The more she read, the deeper her frown became. Luo Feng sat beside her and looked at her with his face propped up.

"I've calculated it." Ai Tingya sighed.

"How many did we earn?" The others surrounded her, thinking that it should be a large sum since there were so many people today!

"1,263 yuan," Ai Tingya said with a pout.

Ads by Pubfuture

That figure was far from what she had expected. Adding rent, utilities, raw materials and labor costs together, they would not break even without 2,000 yuan of revenue a day.

"That's all…" Ai Tingya said discouraged.

They had been busy for more than a month. They ran to a few construction materials markets before deciding on a board. They drank milk tea for a week to develop new products. Dean Du and everyone in the orphanage worked hard, but they only obtained a barely satisfactory result.

Xiao Fei could not bear to see Ai Tingya cry. In her heart, Ai Tingya was the strongest person. When she cried, she would feel like crying too. Xiao Fei's eyes turned red and tears welled up staring at Ai Tingya's aggrieved back.

She was about to go forward and comfort Ai Tingya when Dean Du stopped her.

"We won't be able to comfort her." said the Dean as if she had seen through it.

"How could that be? In the past, I was the one who comforted Little Ya when she was sad!" Xiao Fei vowed.

Before she could take a step forward, she saw Luo Feng hug Ai Tingya and stroke her hair as if he was coaxing a child.

"It's alright. This is only the first day. Our reputation hasn't spread yet, and there's still a discount today. The losses in the early stages are to earn more later. Don't cry, okay? My heart will ache."

His words seemed to have magic. Ai Tingya's tears made a U-Turn before they fell.

Xiao Fei was speechless as she watched from the side. These two people could really show off their love at any time. Why would they buy white sugar in the shop? It was sweet enough to put them in the shop.

"Director, your judgment is indeed accurate!" Little Fei said with gratitude.

…

At night, at the orphanage.

After washing up, Xiao Fei returned to her room and realized that Ai Tingya was still lying at the table. Her posture had not changed since she had eaten. It was just a day's worth of accounts. Did she have to settle it for so long?

"Xiao Ya, it's time to sleep. You still have school tomorrow," Xiao Fei reminded.

Ever since the tuition, Ai Tingya would wake up at 6:30 a.m. every day. The dark circles under her eyes had clearly worsened. Xiao Fei hoped that she would use all the time she could to rest and sleep.

"Go to sleep first. I'll calculate for a while more." Ai Tingya's voice was hoarse. She held her forehead with one hand and kept writing in her notebook with the other.

Xiao Fei said with heartache, "Xiao Ya, it's still only so much no matter how you calculate today's turnover. Why don't you rest early and we'll continue working hard tomorrow?"

Ai Tingya shook her head and said, "I'm not calculating the turnover. I'm calculating how long it will take to repay what I owe Luo Feng…"

Xiao Fei walked to Ai Tingya's side and saw that the notebook was filled with every expense of the milk tea shop, ranging from rent to screws. Ai Tingya listed them out one by one to remind herself.

"Xiao Ya, you don't have to do this at all. Luo Feng was the one who wanted to invest in the milk tea shop. You don't owe him anything. Don't give yourself too much pressure," Xiao Fei advised.

"No, I don't think that's how it is. Luo Feng wouldn't have gotten involved in the orphanage if it weren't for me. The more he sacrificed for me, the more I feel that I'm not worthy of him. I hope that I'm equal to him. Only then will I have the courage to stand beside him," Ai Tingya said.

Towards the end, even someone as stubborn as her was filled with tears.

"Xiao Ya, the most important thing for you now is the college entrance examination. It won't be too late to settle it slowly after it ends." Xiao Fei did not understand why Ai Tingya was in a hurry to report to Luo Feng.

"Tomorrow and tomorrow. There are so many tomorrow. The milk tea shop is open for business. We can't delay these things."

Ai Tingya wanted to make the milk tea shop profitable as soon as possible so that Luo Feng could recover his capital faster.

Xiao Fei was touched by Ai Tingya's persistence. She held Ai Tingya's hands and said, "Xiao Ya, you're so awesome! In that case, I'll help you tidy up! Let's come up with a plan to sell milk tea. We'll sell a lot of milk tea!"

"Okay!" Ai Tingya wiped her tears and continued working hard.

She felt that she was really lucky to have a good lover like Luo Feng and Xiao Fei accompany her.

…

Ai Tingya decided to start with the school first. New things attracted young people the most. It was also for the sake of the school's traffic when they chose the location of the shop previously.

Ai Tingya began to have a goal to attract customers due to the fact that they could not advertise in the school openly— That was, to choose students!

As long as one student was mesmerized by the milk tea, he would definitely help promote it for free in class.

Hence, Ai Tingya especially reminded the person who distributed the flyers to seize the time when the students were eating and try his best to send the flyers to the students.

Ai Tingya insisted on bringing Teacher Yu a cup of milk tea every day also. While she said that she was grateful for Teacher Yu's help, she actually hoped that she could help promote it. The students subconsciously felt that what the teacher had said was good after all.

Just like that, under Ai Tingya's arrangements, the number of children in school uniforms in the milk tea shop increased.

Students drinking milk tea could be seen everywhere on the campus. The news of Luo Feng and Ai Tingya opening a milk tea shop gradually spread throughout Class One.

Xing Miaomiao lay on the table and whined as if she had been beaten.

Her best friend was very curious when she saw her half-dead appearance. "Miaomiao, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Ads by Pubfuture

Xing Miaomiao raised her head and said weakly, "I feel that I might never have any more joy in my life!"

"You were dumped?" Her best friend said in surprise.

"…No."

"Then it's Luo Feng again? Did you fail in your revenge?" Her best friend still remembered that Xing Miaomiao had said that she wanted to teach Luo Feng a lesson. She had never seen her move and thought that she had long forgotten about it.

Xing Miaomiao did not want to talk to her about this. She had wanted to frame Luo Feng during the last exam, but he had long finished his paper and did not give her a chance.

Later on, Luo Feng lectured during evening self-study class. After listening to it, her results had indeed improved slightly. If she took revenge again, it would be a little like repaying kindness with ingratitude, so she simply threw it to the back of her mind.

...

"No, it's just that I recently discovered a very good milk tea. That taste. I can't drink other drinks after drinking it once."

"The one outside the school gate? Did you finish spending your allowance? Let me treat you to a drink. Pull yourself together," Her best friend comforted.

"I can't pull myself together! I saw the waiter at Good Me Milk Tea Shop calling Ai Tingya's lady boss. Then Luo Feng must be the boss! How can I enter again!" Xing Miaomiao said frantically.

55 Classmates Repaying Gratitude, We're Going to Make Big Money!

"This is indeed a difficult problem. Why don't I help you buy it? I don't have any grudges with Luo Feng," her best friend volunteered, feeling a little sorry for Xing Miaomiao.

In the past, Luo Feng liked Xing Miaomiao so much that he circled around her like a little bee. However, Xing Miaomiao looked down on Luo Feng at that time and only liked the feeling of being flattered, so she had been fishing for Luo Feng.

Now, Luo Feng had become handsome and his results had improved. He even took the time to start a side business and become a boss. The person he liked was also no longer Xing Miaomiao.

She had missed the opportunity!

!

"Buying milk tea alone is not enough. The service in that shop is also very good. I'll only be in a good mood sitting inside sipping my tea, do you understand?" Xing Miaomiao tried her best to describe the feeling of floating.

"I don't know." Her best friend shook her head. "Do you want milk tea or not?!"

"Yes!" Xing Miaomiao raised her hand and said, "But I need to think of a reason, help me think of one too!"

As the saying went, you couldn't have both the fish and the bear paw, but Xing Miaomiao insisted on trying to satisfy her desires while protecting her pride.

At this moment, Lei Jin walked in with a cup of milk tea.

He swaggered to the podium. "Students, my cute milk green is made from top-notch green tea and milk. It's sweet and not greasy. One cup will chase away the fatigue of learning."

"Is it really that magical? How much advertising fee did they give you?" A male student laughed.

Most of the students had heard of Luo Feng's milk tea but had never drunk it before because it was relatively more expensive. Xing Miaomiao turned around and glared at the boy— He didn't know what was good for him! She would have been the one standing on the podium if not for the awkward relationship between her and Luo Feng!

"I'm really not lying to you. You can see the process of making the milk tea. It's really worth this price!" Lei Jin took a sip of the milk tea and rolled his eyes in intoxication.

"Is that true? Don't lie to us, bro!" A classmate said indignantly.

"That's Luo Feng's shop even though I think milk tea is a little expensive. He shouldn't lie, right?"

"I think so too. His results are good and he's a good person after all. I think many people from Class Two will patronize Luo Feng's shop."

"No way. Having good results doesn't mean he has a good character. Seeing is believing."

"But can you say that Luo Feng's character is bad? He's obligated to teach us every night without asking for anything in return."

For some reason, the discussion about milk tea inexplicably shifted to Luo Feng's personality, then to the evening self-study session, and finally to his academic results.

"I've improved a lot after listening to Luo Feng's class! I understood the knowledge points that I didn't understand in the past as soon as he explained them."

"My math score increased by 30 points in the last exam. My mother was overjoyed!"

"Luo Feng is really unreserved to us. It's obvious at a glance if we follow his train of thought. I've already written a notebook. I want to keep it as a memento after the college entrance examination!"

"I heard that after Teacher Zhang of Class Two found out that Luo Feng's class suppressed Class Two, he had been giving Class Two papers everyday. They are complaining that they don't want to learn anymore." 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝑛𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙．𝘯𝘦𝘵

"Serves them right! Who asked them to laugh at us in the past?"

"This is all thanks to Luo Feng!"

Someone shouted and the students immediately fell silent.

Actually, everyone could find out that Luo Feng opened the milk tea shop for the orphanage if they tried to find out. Logically speaking, they should go to the milk tea shop to support the business even if it was to return Luo Feng's favor.

But they did not go because of this and that.

"Why don't we go to the milk tea shop and buy some drinks? It isn't that expensive if the materials used are good."

Someone in the crowd suggested and immediately received a response from everyone.

Xing Miaomiao, who had been watching, seized this opportunity. She stood up and flipped her hair. "I'll treat you today since everyone wants milk tea."

A classmate smiled and said, "Xing Miaomiao, if you want to express goodwill to Luo Feng, just say so. Why are you using us as a cover?"

Xing Miaomiao ignored his sarcasm and sneered. "Just say whether you want to drink it or not."

"I do!" He would be a fool not to drink it.

"Then shut up!" Xing Miaomiao said fiercely.

It was a little expensive to treat more than 40 people in the class to milk tea for a cup of milk tea, but Xing Miaomiao felt that it was worth it. She didn't know when she would be able to find a suitable reason next.

Lei Jin finished his milk tea in a few mouthfuls seeing that there was a bargain to pick up and said, "Let's go quickly, or we won't be able to get out later."

As soon as he finished speaking, the students rushed out in full strength and ran towards the school gate.

The milk tea shop was close to class, and there were fewer customers in the shop. Ai Tingya helped to pack up the things on the operating table.

"Lady Boss, we'll go back first." Lu Zhao waved her hand.

"Alright, be careful on the road," Ai Tingya said.

Only one waiter and one tea maker were usually left to guard the shop as there were not many customers at night. Ai Tingya continued to tidy up with her head lowered.

Unexpectedly, Lu Zhao was pushed back by a group of people before she could walk out of the shop!

Ai Tingya saw familiar faces crowding in front of the operating table. The completeness of the class made her wonder why her classmates were here.

"Lady Boss, give me the most expensive drink on your menu!"

"Huh?"

"I want the most expensive one too!"

"Hurry up, or class will start!"

Her classmates were like chicks in a cage, shaking their heads and talking at once. Ai Tingya immediately took action and began to boil water, boil tea, and squeeze fruit juice. Lu Zhao, who was preparing to go home, also put down her bag and greeted the guests with another waiter.

Xing Miaomiao, who was hiding in a corner, heard the orders one after another and silently tightened her grip on her wallet.

I wouldn't have said I would treat everyone if I knew this would happen…

Xing Miaomiao's heart was bleeding for her purse while Ai Tingya was sweating profusely.

Back then, Luo Feng left a large area of blank space for guests and landlords when he designed the shop in order to reflect the simplicity and high-end furnishings were all in a minimalist style.

However, there was clearly not enough space for more than 40 people to be inside. Many students squatting by the roadside shouted their orders into the shop.

...

"Classmates, don't squeeze. One by one." Ai Tingya tried her best to stabilize the order and speed up her movements.

She was overjoyed as she listened to the orders. They were finally going to get the capital back after two weeks! She only hated herself for only having two hands. Otherwise, they would be served faster!

"Hold on for a while. I'll call for help immediately!"

Ai Tingya took the opportunity to hide under the table and hurriedly called Luo Feng.

At this moment, Luo Feng had just finished shopping on the snack street and was about to go to the milk tea shop to pick up Ai Tingya and return to the classroom. He received a call from Ai Tingya unexpectedly. It was noisy there.

"What's wrong, Tingya? Why is it so noisy on your side?" Luo Feng's eyes were twitching. He felt that something bad was about to happen.

Ai Tingya's happy voice came from the other end of the phone. "Luo Feng, our classmates are here to buy milk tea. Come over quickly. We're too busy!"

"What?" Luo Feng did not hear clearly.

"Come and help us. We're going to make big money!"

The busy tone came from the receiver before Luo Feng could ask in detail. Ai Tingya hung up and Luo Feng only heard the words "make big money".

His heart skipped a beat. He could not invest anymore!

...

56 Why Don't We Have A Star Student in Our Class?

Luo Feng hurriedly rushed back to the milk tea shop and realized that the small shop had become a can of sardines. It was filled with his classmates, and there was no space at all.

"Please let me in!" Luo Feng tried his best to wiggle in.

He was pushed out by a male classmate. "Queue up if you want to drink milk tea. Have you ever drank anything good?"

Luo Feng was speechless. "None of you will be able to drink it if I don't get in."

!

These words sounded a little arrogant. The male student sneered and turned around to teach him a lesson, but saw that it was Luo Feng.

The male student immediately called out to the others, "Give way! Luo Feng is back!"

The students rubbing shoulders were like a sponge holding water. There was space after squeezing, leaving a path as wide as a person for Luo Feng.

Luo Feng walked into the bar and saw Ai Tingya making milk tea non-stop. Luo Feng took the two orders and began to get busy. The classmates who were waiting to be fed stared at the two of them, afraid that they would miss every detail.

As cup after cup of milk tea was handed to his classmates, the cashier opened and closed, turning and turning again. The gears were grinding until they were hot. Luo Feng was used to swiping his card so it had been a long time since he had felt his hands go weak from collecting money.

The few of them busied themselves for half an hour before the last student walked out of the shop with milk tea in his hand.

"It's been hard on you. Class is about to start. Don't forget." The classmates didn't forget to remind them kindly.

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya were so tired that they could barely raise their hands. They tidied up briefly and left the closing task to the shop assistant. Then, they dragged their tired bodies back to the classroom.

Even though Ai Tingya was tired, she was as happy as the June sun. She could even laugh when she looked at the empty blackboard.

Luo Feng was extremely conflicted.

There were many ways to earn money after all. Selling physical strength to make hard money, or waiting for money to make money, even an idiot would choose the second option.

However, Luo Feng clearly felt that he was running wildly towards the first option.

Ai Tingya shook his arm excitedly. "If business continues to be so good, not only will the orphanage's crisis be resolved, we can also open a branch!"

Luo Feng did not want to pour cold water on her. Opening a branch was not something that could be done with money alone. Renovation, ingredients, location, storefronts, and so on had to be done all over again. Moreover, one store was already enough to tire them out.

He did not want to tire Ai Tingya out.

Hence, he pretended to be serious and said, "Tingya, have you forgotten our main job?"

Ai Tingya was stunned for a moment. The book open on the table reminded her that they were students who were about to take the college entrance examination and should prioritize their studies.

Luo Feng continued, "We'll talk about opening a branch after the college entrance examination. Study hard now!"

Ai Tingya nodded thoughtfully hearing this, thinking to herself that she still had so much to learn, but she was so charmed by just a little success. She really should learn more from Luo Feng.

Her expression was solemn as she hugged her book piously. She abandoned all distracting thoughts and focused on doing the questions.

Luo Feng did not study after he finished educating Ai Tingya. He supported his face and admired his girlfriend who was studying seriously.

At this moment, Teacher Yu had floated behind Luo Feng and was staring at the back of his head with a resentful expression.

"Your words are so pretty. Why don't I see you studying seriously?" Teacher Yu complained.

Luo Feng was shocked by the spirit behind him. Previously, Teacher Yu had handed the class to Luo Feng without worry while she sat at the back and secretly took notes. Why did she suddenly think of presiding over the overall situation today?

"Teacher Yu, what's the matter?" Luo Feng asked.

Teacher Yu really wanted to slap his head looking at his lazy appearance. However, on second thought, he was the number one in the entire school. He had to be pampered.

She walked up to the podium and slapped the table. "Students, the second targeted examination is next week. In order not to delay Student Luo Feng's revision, he won't be lecturing during the evening self-study for the next two days. Our teachers will be in the office. If you don't understand anything, feel free to ask. The teachers will be happy to answer your questions."

Teacher Yu came here to announce this and to give Luo Feng enough time to revise.

Actually, Luo Feng did not mind. He was also revising in the process of explaining the questions to his classmates. However, since it was Teacher Yu's kind intentions, he had more time to be lovey dovey during the evening self-study… No, to discuss problems with Ai Tingya.

"Thank you, Teacher Yu." Luo Feng looked up and smiled.

Teacher Yu thought that he had finally understood her painstaking efforts. She patted Luo Feng's shoulder when she passed by Luo Feng. "Do your best. You must bring me glory!"

"Understood."

Teacher Yu finally left the classroom in satisfaction with Luo Feng's confirmation.

…

A week later, the second targeted examination arrived.

It was similar to the first targeted examination. The difficulty of the question was similar to the college entrance examination. The setting of the examination hall was also copied from the college entrance examination, so that the students could adapt to the examination atmosphere.

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya were ranked according to their results and were still sitting in the examination hall of Class One.

The bell rang on the radio and two invigilators walked in.

What surprised Luo Feng was that the invigilator was not Teacher Yu, but Teacher Zhang from Class Two.

As soon as he entered, his eyes were fixed on Luo Feng. That complicated gaze of envy and jealousy lingered between Luo Feng and Ai Tingya.

Teacher Zhang's faith was unbearable. Why was Teacher Yu so lucky that the first and second place in the entire school were in her class alone?

Following the order of seats, Teacher Zhang's gaze jumped six seats before she saw the first place in their class— Wen Ji. He was trying his best to push the unconvinced pen into the pen tube.

Why is the first place in his class like this?!

As Teacher Zhang tore open the test paper, he asked how unfair it was in his heart. How was his class inferior to Class One? Teacher Yu walked around proudly, even the vice-principal was especially biased towards her.

This is fate…

Teacher Zhang sighed repeatedly in his heart and distributed the test papers.

The bell rang, and the examinees began to answer the questions. Two invigilators guarded the students from the front and back respectively. They looked unsmiling, and their eyes were as sharp as laser lights.

Actually, they did not dare to do anything. They were so bored that they could only stare at the air in a daze.

As a result, Teacher Zhang's eyes kept glued to Luo Feng's body uncontrollably, as if he was looking at a shining piece of gold with a "You can only see but not touch" sign beside it.

He put his hands in his pockets and pretended to patrol the middle of the aisle unintentionally. He would peek at Luo Feng's paper every time he passed by and then look at Ai Tingya's paper. 𝙗𝙚𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝒐𝒎

...

Ai Tingya was a little slower than Luo Feng. Luo Feng had already begun to do the third page while Ai Tingya was still on the second page half an hour later.

However, she was relatively fast. The other students were still working on the first page.

Teacher Zhang made a simple comparison and realized that their answers were similar. This was a math test, and the answers were fixed.

The fact that two students with excellent results had written the same answer meant that this was the standard answer!

57 I Don't Want to Be Proud, But My Strength Forces Me To Be

Two students gave the same standard answer. Teacher Zhang was so envious that he went crazy, feeling like a cat was scratching his heart.

He walked to Wen Ji's side to hopefully gain some balance in his heart.

This student who was first in Class Two and sixth in the cohort shouldn't be too bad at answering questions, right?

It was fine if he did not look, but he was shocked when he saw it. Why were there only a few answers that were the same as Luo Feng on half of Wen Ji's paper? Wasn't this wrong?

Teacher Zhang did not believe it. He simply crossed his arms and calculated in his heart.

Indeed, Wen Ji had answered wrongly!

Teacher Zhang was so angry that smoke was coming out of his mouth. One of his feet trembled uneasily.

Even a vegetable could not remain calm with a teacher standing at the side shaking his legs. Wen Ji raised his head with a bitter expression, as if he had seen an angry King Kong. He was so frightened that his forehead was covered in sweat.

He did not know what crime he had committed to let Teacher Zhang supervise his paper alone. Wen Ji thought that he did the question wrongly and shakily blacked out the answer beside what he wrote.

Ads by Pubfuture

"That's the right one! Why did you black it out?!" Teacher Zhang roared in his heart, wishing he could do the papers himself.

He widened his eyes and kept signaling with his eyes for Wen Ji to recalculate and check properly. Wen Ji also raised his head, as if asking Teacher Zhang if this was the case. In the end, he met the teacher's wide eyes and almost peed his pants.

Teacher Zhang closed his eyes and pinched his glabella. He could not look anymore. If he did, his lifespan would be shortened. 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗ｏ𝚟𝚎𝚕.ｏｒｇ

After taking a few steps back, he realized that Luo Feng was already in a daze with his legs crossed.

"You're done so quickly." Teacher Zhang glanced at the clock on the wall.

It had only been an hour since the exam started! Luo Feng was already done?!

Teacher Zhang stopped beside him and tapped his fingers on the table, indicating for Luo Feng to check carefully and not look around to disturb the order of the examination hall.

Luo Feng pulled up the paper expressionlessly. On it was a neat list of draft solutions. He had written each solution twice, proving that Luo Feng had checked it twice.

Teacher Zhang knew that Luo Feng's results were very good, but he did not expect them to be that good! He could not do it at Luo Feng's speed even if he were to answer the questions himself!

Such a good student was simply the most eye-catching badge of an outstanding teacher! He would be able to do whatever he wanted in school in five years to be lucky enough to teach such a good student!

Teacher Zhang drooled with envy at the thought that Luo Feng was in Teacher Yu's class.

"Yes, don't look around," Teacher Zhang reminded Luo Feng.

His words were really against his will. Luo Feng was just a walking answer book. There was no need to do anything to jeopardize that.

He began to patrol with mixed feelings and walked to another corner of the classroom. The other invigilator guarding the back door was also bored and stared at the back of the students' heads in a daze.

Teacher Zhang passed by him coincidentally. The invigilator stopped him and whispered, "Teacher Zhang, what is Luo Feng doing? Why is he always twisting back?"

Teacher Zhang looked up.

As expected, Luo Feng, who was sitting in the first row, turned his body sideways and looked at Ai Tingya, who was in the second row, in an awkward posture.

Teacher Zhang quickly walked over and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing?"

Luo Feng pointed at Ai Tingya confidently and said, "I'm looking at her."

Ai Tingya, who was engrossed in her questions, blushed and the corners of her mouth curled up uncontrollably.

Teacher Zhang's scalp went numb from their lovey-dovey display. Didn't they say that everyone only had one brain? How could an outstanding star student's brain be stained with the vice of being in love?

"Turn around and don't affect the other students." Teacher Zhang looked at Ai Tingya meaningfully.

Then, he saw Ai Tingya complete the test paper and put down her pen. She supported her chin with both hands and looked at Luo Feng affectionately.

"…" Teacher Zhang was speechless, feeling like he was a busybody.

Why did he have to worry about a young couple and be fed dog food?

"I really can't stand the two of you." Teacher Zhang was embarrassed, but he was shouting unwillingly in his heart.

They were actually able to firmly rank first or second with their examination attitudes. Teacher Yu's discipline of the two of them was too loose. Teacher Zhang felt that if Luo Feng and the other two were in his class, he would definitely pull them back.

Their results would definitely improve if they focused all their attention on their studies.

Unfortunately, he could only be envious!

…

The two-day examination ended quickly and the results of the Third High School came out very quickly.

When the results of this exam were out, all the teachers who had seen the results and rankings clicked their tongues in wonder. They could not hide their envy for Teacher Yu.

Teacher Yu held the report card and sat in her seat, sighing.

Her sigh was too loud. The other teachers asked curiously, "Teacher Yu, your class did very well this time. Why do you always sigh?"

Teacher Yu clenched her fists. "I hate that this isn't the college entrance examination."

The other teachers, including Teacher Zhang, who was not far away, pricked up their ears to listen to her thinking.

Teacher Yu said regretfully, "Look at Luo Feng's full marks. Ai Tingya's essay only had a few points deducted. One of them is first, and the other is second. If this is the college entrance examination results, they will definitely be the top scorers."

"Also, the other students in our class have also improved greatly. 20 from my class have entered the top 50 of the cohort, accounting for half of them!"

"Look here. The worst student in our class is ranked 124th in the entire school. I'll wake up laughing in my dreams if this is their college entrance examination results!"

The other teachers shrunk their necks and thought to themselves, 'Aren't you asking for too much?'

The results of Class One were already unprecedented in their school! It was too luxurious no matter how one looked at it!

The teachers smiled helplessly and dispersed, lest they be angered to death by Teacher Yu's smugness.

Teacher Yu was overjoyed. She felt that she had not said enough and needed to focus on hitting Teacher Zhang.

She took the report card and went to Teacher Zhang's side. She said in slight distress, "Teacher Zhang, I think your class's performance this time is also stable. The average score is about the same as the first examination."

"Teach me how to stabilize the students' results. I'm really afraid that they'll become proud."

...

Teacher Zhang gritted his teeth and forced a smile. "The students know their limits. Don't worry too much. Just trust them."

He kept roaring in his heart. You're the proudest teacher in the entire school. Don't show off in front of me!

Teacher Zhang laughed and said, "I won't chat with you anymore. The students are still waiting for me to announce the results."

Teacher Yu stopped him. "You're leaving so soon? I wanted to discuss the average score with you. Teacher Zhang, when are you free?"

"I'm not free." Teacher Zhang bypassed her and jogged out of the office.

In the past, he had always compared his average score with Teacher Yu. Staying here would only invite humiliation now that he could not compare to her!

Teacher Yu shook the report card regretfully. "That's true. I'll go take a look at my hardworking students too. Teacher Zhang, wait for me. Let's go together."

58 It's Finally Someone's Turn To Give Us Gifts After So Many Years

"Quiet! Everyone, quiet. Do you think you did well this time?"

"I don't ask you to be top-notch like Luo Feng, but don't regress! Look at your results this time, how many ranks have you fallen!"

"If this continues, why still take the college entrance examination? Wouldn't it be better if you just went home for the summer vacation!"

"How many times have I told you? Check carefully. Don't be conflicted. You have to firmly believe in your feelings and have some confidence in yourself, especially you, Wen Ji. Look, the answers you changed were all correct. You didn't make a firm choice, which means that your grasp of knowledge is not solid enough!"

In Class Two next door, Teacher Zhang's scolding could be heard throughout the entire floor.

The pointer hit the table with a bang. Those who didn't know better would think that Class Two's classroom was being renovated.

Teacher Yu stood at the back of the classroom and pricked up her ears to listen to the commotion next door. She was extremely happy. It had been many years since she had been able to hold her head high in front of Teacher Zhang.

It was all thanks to her cute students that she could grow her pride this time!

"Ahem! Students, have you seen your results?" Teacher Yu tried her best to suppress the joy in her heart and pretended to be calm as she walked to the podium. "Class Two next door did well this time, but you can hear that Teacher Zhang is still very dissatisfied from his movements next door. However, I definitely won't be as fierce as him. Let's conclude calmly."

She actually wanted to give her classmates a thumbs up and praise them with all the words of praise she had learned in her life.

However, she was afraid that the students would become proud, so she could only treat the joyous occasion as an ordinary exam.

"Students, are you satisfied with the results this time?" Teacher Yu asked.

"Satisfied!" The students below replied in unison.

Bang!

There was another loud bang from the next class. Then, Teacher Zhang said hysterically, "Everyone, copy the answers to the questions you got wrong 10 times."

One could tell that he had been greatly stimulated just by listening to the commotion.

Teacher Yu was so happy that she wanted to roll on the ground. She continued to forcefully calm down and said, "Don't be affected by the class next door. Everyone, continue to summarize. I see that a few students have made great progress. Stand up and tell me your feelings. Ke Jiang, you go first."

Ke Jiang, who was sitting in the second last row, stood up and licked his lips excitedly. "I… I've recently discovered the trick to studying. No, it should be Luo Feng who helped me discover the trick. It's more convenient to memorize the notes using his method. Thank you, Luo Feng!"

Clap—

Applause sounded in the classroom. All the students agreed with Ke Jiang and nodded.

"I'm also very grateful to Luo Feng. He was still willing to teach me again after the evening self-study class. The reason why I did well is because of Luo Feng!"

"I feel the same. I've never liked studying so much…"

"Me too…"

The few students who were praised thanked Luo Feng immediately.

Teacher Yu was also indescribably happy, but she felt that something was missing.

At this moment, another girl stood up. "I'm different. I am still doing questions every day when I go back to the dormitory. I hide under the blanket and read even when the lights are off. I think the improvement in my results has a lot to do with my own efforts, but I did have external stimuli. I have someone to thank."

A different opening statement meant that the person she was thanking was different.

Teacher Yu craned her neck, her face filled with anticipation, hoping to hear the name she wanted to hear the most from the girl.

"Thank you, Luo Feng!" The girl thanked him very seriously as if she was reciting a poem.

"We're all classmates. There's no need to be so polite." Luo Feng stood up and replied to the class casually, not feeling proud.

This made the students admire him even more. The discussion in the classroom was very lively.

Teacher Yu stood on the podium that no one cared about with mixed emotions. As a form teacher, her presence seemed to be getting weaker and weaker.

Why didn't any students thank me? I'm still waiting!

"Students, don't be arrogant." Teacher Yu concluded sourly. "You have to work harder and maintain your current results to get into good universities that you like!"

… And the title of the most outstanding form teacher would also fall into our class!

Teacher Yu arranged for school to end not long after class because they did well, giving the students half a day to relax. It was called a work-rest balance.

Class One was also the focus of the school's leaders. The other classes, who were still doing questions, were simply crying with envy. Every student was full of smiles and went home with satisfied results.

Ai Tingya had something to do at the milk tea shop, so Luo Feng went home first.

Luo Feng nestled on the sofa and watched television after dinner that night. Suddenly, there was an urgent knock on the door.

He left the opportunity to open the door to Mother Luo and returned to his room to sleep thinking that Mother Luo's dance partners were here for her.

Mother Luo opened the door and saw a few middle-aged men and women she did not know. They were gathered at the door and staring at her.

"Who… Are you looking for?" Mother Luo was a little nervous to be in front of many people. All kinds of possibilities flashed through her mind. Could Luo Feng have caused trouble outside again?

"Are you Luo Feng's mother?" The bearded man's voice was very rough.

Mother Luo was a little unconfident. "I… I am. Why?"

Big Brother smiled and raised a carton of milk with his hands behind his back unexpectedly. "Big Sister, I can tell that you have an extraordinary temperament. That's why you can teach a good child with outstanding results. I'm here to thank Student Luo Feng for helping my son improve his results!"

"I'm Ke Jiang's mother. Our Ke Jiang has never done so well!"

"Our child said that Luo Feng tutors everyone during self-study every night. It's a small gift. Don't mind it."

Only then did Mother Luo see clearly that everyone was carrying things in their hands. There were fruits, snacks, and a parent carrying half a plate of pork ribs. The color of the meat was pink and beautiful. It was obvious that they were farmers. The people standing outside the door were all parents who were here to thank Luo Feng.

"They are all classmates. You're too kind." Mother Luo was a little embarrassed.

Ads by Pubfuture

When Luo Feng was young, he was mischievous and often beat his classmates up until they cried. She even compensated others with a lot of things previously. After so many years, she finally saw gifts being sent back.

Coincidentally, Luo Feng, who was in the room, heard the commotion at the door and walked out.

"Mom, why are there so many people?" Luo Feng stared at the uncles and aunties at the door in confusion.

The parent at the door sized up Luo Feng. "Aiyo, Student Luo Feng is really a talent. No wonder my child always praises you."

"Come, come, come. This apple is very sweet. Student Luo Feng, try it!"

...

"The ribs are nourishing for the child. Take them."

Mother Luo couldn't take them all with both hands, so she could only invite them into the house. "You're too kind. Come in and sit for a while."

It would be unreasonable if she did not entertain them since they had already given her family gifts.

Luo Feng also understood why they were here and said humbly, "Yes, Uncle and Auntie came all the way here. Come in and have some tea."

The parents of the classmates were here to give gifts, not to freeload on them.

"It's no trouble. The children are at the critical moment of preparing for the exam. We won't go in and disturb you. I'll go back first today. I'll definitely thank you solemnly another day." Ke Jiang's mother said.

"That's right, that's right. We'll go back first."

"Thank you, Luo Feng, I'll come and see you next time."

The parents put down their things and left.

Mama Luo stood in the middle of the gifts all over the ground, so happy that she did not know where to start.

"Aiyo, aiyo, with so many good things, son, you've really made your mother proud!" Mother Luo happily cupped Luo Feng's face and gave him a big kiss on the forehead.

Mother Luo had never been so excited ever since Luo Feng graduated from primary school.

"I thought they were here to settle scores. It nearly scared me to death. I almost threw you out." Mama Luo hugged the half of the pork ribs lovingly. "This cost a lot."

Luo Feng laughed: "Mom, are you planning to put righteousness before family?"

Mother Luo smiled and said, "How would I know that you're so promising that you can get someone to send gifts to the door? I'll stew the ribs immediately. Bring some for Tingya tomorrow morning."

Luo Feng looked out the window. The streetlights had been on for a long time and he was about to go to sleep.

"Isn't it too late to make soup now? Why don't you make it tomorrow?" Luo Feng advised.

Mama Luo pursed her lips. "My silly son, why aren't you sensible? Who will know that my son earned the pork ribs if I wait until tomorrow to stew it? The fragrance will only waft into their houses when no one else is cooking."

So she wants to show off.

Luo Feng couldn't persuade her either. "Don't be so happy that you can't sleep. Rest early."

…

The next morning, Luo Feng carried a bowl of pork ribs soup to school. Lei Jin jumped out from the side of the road just as he reached the intersection.

"What good stuff did you bring for Ai Tingya today? Let me take a look." Lei Jin stretched his neck, very interested in the bowl in Luo Feng's hand.

"Pork rib soup. Come to my house to drink it after school. There's still a lot."

"Oh~" Lei Jin dragged out his words. "The pork ribs from Xing Xiaomao's father, right? You should indeed treat me to a bowl."

When Luo Feng heard this, he immediately understood more than half of it: "You gave the directions to those uncles and aunties, right? I was wondering how they found my house so accurately."

Of course, Lei Jin wouldn't miss the opportunity to take credit. "It's not a bad thing. It's also a token of appreciation from my classmate's parents, so I helped lead the way. Is your mother so happy that she couldn't sleep the entire night?"

"Pretty much."

"There's another piece of good news. You'll be happy to hear it!"

Luo Feng stopped and waited for Lei Jin to tell him the good news.

Lei Jin said proudly, "I've pulled in a lot of business for your milk tea shop. Remember to treat me to a big meal when you earn money."

It turned out that last night, Lei Jin's friend from another class came to ask him why Class One's results were so outstanding and if they had developed some magical learning method.

Previously, Teacher Yu had instructed him not to tell anyone about Luo Feng tutoring the entire class. Otherwise, it would attract unnecessary trouble to Luo Feng. Moreover, if the principal finds out, he might very well organize the entire grade to attend the class together. Not only will it delay Luo Feng's time, but it will also squeeze the learning time of the class.

Therefore, Lei Jin told them: "Luo Feng's milk tea has a miraculous effect. Our class drank milk tea and were especially motivated to learn!"

Luo Feng found it unbelievable. "Your friend believed you?"

"How can he not believe me? The reality is right here," Lei Jin said proudly. "Besides, sugar can indeed stimulate the brain. I'm not lying."

This was a free advertisement for Luo Feng's milk tea shop.

The original main target consumer group of the milk tea shop at the entrance of the school was students. In Lei Jin's estimation, the turnover of the milk tea shop would definitely increase.

Luo Feng's reaction was not strong. He said calmly, "No one will believe this, right? Thank you anyway."

The two of them chatted as they walked towards the school.

When he was about to reach school, Luo Feng felt that something was amiss— Why were there so many students on the road today?

He left late and might only enter the school gate when the bell rings due to the hot soup this morning. Usually, there shouldn't be many people on the road at this time. Why were there so many students from his school today?

Moreover, judging from the direction they were moving in, their destination seemed to be the shops in front of the school gate.

Lei Jin, who was following beside him, also noticed the abnormality. "Why do I feel that they're walking towards your milk tea shop?"

He really could not think of anything in that direction that would attract students more than the school gate.

Morning wasn't the main business time of the milk tea shop. Luo Feng was half-believing and half-doubting as he wanted to go to the milk tea shop to take a look.

He saw that the shop was filled with customers before he reached the door unexpectedly. It was even more exaggerated than the last time his classmates came to buy his milk tea together!

Not only were there students, but there were also parents holding briefcases. The uncles and aunties who had gone out to buy fried dough sticks in the morning were also trying their best to squeeze into the shop. The bosses of the shops beside them were also standing by the roadside to watch the commotion.

They had been doing business on this street for more than 10 years, but they had never seen such a big scene. Those who didn't know better would think that the milk tea shop was giving away money for free.

Xiao Fei, who was in charge of looking after the shop today, was extremely busy.

Luo Feng felt that the doorway might explode if he didn't maintain order.

He stood outside the door and shouted, "Everyone, don't squeeze. Don't squeeze. Be careful of your feet!"

However, no one listened to him, especially the uncles and aunties. They looked weak on the surface, but when they snatched things, they were not inferior to the young people.

Luo Feng scratched his head and said in confusion, "It's just a cup of milk tea, why is it so popular?"

When the auntie who was at the outermost area heard this, she explained enthusiastically, "Student, you don't know yet, right? This milk tea is very magical. It can make people focus on their studies. It's more useful than any tonic!"

"?"

It has such an effect? Even Luo Feng, who was the boss, didn't know about that!

Another uncle added, "It's not that mystica, it's just to improve memory and is helpful for studies!"

... 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝗻𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹．𝐨𝐫𝗴

"From who?" Luo Feng was surprised, "It's just a tastier drink, it doesn't have all that rubbish effects."

"It does! My son's classmate asked. It was a third-year student from Class One who personally admitted that the improvement in his results was because he drank milk tea!" The uncle retorted firmly.

"That's right, that's right. I must snatch a cup for my son today!"

"I heard that it had a miraculous effect, so I came to buy it early in the morning."

The other parents echoed and did not forget to squeeze in.

Luo Feng looked speechlessly at Lei Jin beside him and said with mixed feelings, "It's all due to your rumor, what do you think we should do?"

Lei Jin tiptoed and looked at the pitiful Xiao Fei in the shop. He said seriously, "I think we should call your wife here. You guys will not tire from working together. You can make it through this morning. Good luck!"

60 What's Mine Is Yours, Dear Lady Boss

"That's not the problem now, do you know that you're spreading falsehoods?" Luo Feng placed his hands on his hips. He didn't know that Lei Jin's casual words could spread so far.

The parents of the students nearby were probably squeezing in to buy milk tea.

"It's only been a night. I didn't expect the news to spread so quickly and so ridiculously," Lei Jin said aggrievedly. "What do you think we should do now? I'll listen to you."

"What else can we do, just explain to them honestly." Luo Feng said helplessly.

!

He patted the auntie's shoulder and said, "Auntie, this is an ordinary milk tea shop. The milk tea sold doesn't have the effect you mentioned. Don't blindly follow the trend."

The auntie hesitated for a moment. "Who cares? I'd rather believe it than not! I want to buy it."

"…" Luo Feng was speechless.

He repeated the same words to another person.

"It doesn't matter if it has such an effect or not. If my child wants to drink it, I'll buy it for him. Go to the back if you don't want to buy it." The uncle had the same attitude.

No one really expected the milk tea to change their fate, but they just wanted to buy a cup for their children.

They would even buy a school promotion talisman to ensure their safety from fortune-tellers who set up a stall at the entrance. Perhaps it was because the third year of high school was an important point in their lives.

Even more people gathered around to buy the milk tea after Luo Feng's explanation.

"Don't worry. We're all here to seek psychological comfort. Sell it without worry. I'll help you call Ai Tingya out." Lei Jin said with relief.

Luo Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he could only nod.

He did not expect himself to come here early in the morning to sell milk tea in his third year of high school.

Lei Jin ran back to school while Luo Feng tried his best to squeeze into the production platform. When Xiao Fei saw that it was him, she was so happy that she was about to cry.

"You're finally here to save the day. I don't know why there were so many people this morning, but the others haven't come to work yet." Xiao Fei complained as she shook the milk tea she had made evenly, like an emotionless milk tea machine.

Luo Feng flipped into the production platform and joined the production team.

After a while, Ai Tingya rushed out of the school to help. Coincidentally, the bell rang behind her.

Classes began in school, and the students in line had no choice but to go back to class first. The main force left fighting for the milk tea was only the office workers and uncles and aunties.

"Why are there so many people so early in the morning? We still have class!" Ai Tingya helped in a flurry. She kept wanting to walk into the school, but she was stuck behind the production table.

"Lei Jin should have already applied for leave for us, let's go back to class in the afternoon" said Luo Feng.

Lu Zhao, who was in a hurry to help, gave up thinking. She boiled the water mechanically, squeezed juice, and poured ice cubes. The back of the operating table was so busy that everyone's feet did not stay firm on the ground for long.

Finally, they sent all the customers off before lunch.

Everyone lay on the chairs, feeling like they had just ended an urgent battle.

"Our shop… Is really the best milk tea shop I've ever seen," Lu Zhao praised weakly.

Luo Feng stood in front of the cashier and counted the morning's turnover.

"We made over 10,000 yuan in just one morning!" Luo Feng said in surprise. There weren't many raw materials left in the shop. ｂｅ𝚍ｎｏ𝚟𝚎ｌ.𝚌𝚘ｍ

A smile appeared on Ai Tingya and Xiao Fei's faces when they heard this. The orphanage might have only earned tens of thousands of yuan a year in the past, but they made ten thousand yuan in one morning.

They were overjoyed and prayed that their business would be so good every day in the future.

"Congratulations, Boss. Can I take leave this afternoon?" Lu Zhao was exhausted.

She had been pulled out of bed early in the morning to work overtime and did not expect to get overtime pay. However, it should not be a problem to rest for half a day in the afternoon. There were not many raw materials left in the shop after all.

Luo Feng counted out 1,000 yuan in cash and handed it to Lu Zhao. "This is your overtime pay. You don't have to come this afternoon."

The money in her hand was heavy, and Lu Zhao's eyes instantly widened. Her monthly salary was only 2,000 yuan, but Luo Feng actually gave her 1,000 yuan?!

"Boss is so generous! Boss is so magnanimous! Thank you, Boss!" Lu Zhao felt like fireworks were going off in her head. She happily took the money and ran away, afraid that Luo Feng would regret it in the next second.

However, she had already decided in her heart that she would continue to follow Luo Feng, this generous boss. Lu Zhao had never been so glad to jump ship.

As expected, she had good taste and had a bright future following Luo Feng.

Xiao Fei bit her finger enviously.

Luo Feng gave her 2,000 yuan without waiting for her to speak. "Thank you for your hard work this morning."

"Luo Feng, you are invincible and the best person in this entire universe! Hehehe, Xiao Ya didn't find the wrong person!" She had never gotten so much money in her life.

After distributing the hard work fees to the two employees, Luo Feng handed the remaining money to Ai Tingya.

"My hard work fees are so high?" Ai Tingya felt that she could not collect so much as 7,000 yuan even if she worked hard.

"You're the lady boss, so why would you get the hard work fees? You'll definitely get all the leftover money in your account. In the future, I'll have to ask you for instructions about the shop's expenses. How can you not have some money on hand?" Luo Feng said seriously.

It meant that the lady boss could do whatever she wanted with the money in the shop.

"You're really… making me not know how to answer…" Ai Tingya's smile was red, and her hands were sweating from holding the money.

Luo Feng pinched her cheek, "You haven't adapted to it yet. What's mine is already yours. Otherwise, wouldn't this milk tea shop have been opened for nothing?"

Ai Tingya would always be shy no matter when or where he teased her. She was too cute.

Ai Tingya held her red face and turned to the side so that Luo Feng wouldn't see her. She changed the topic and said, "Let's go back to class quickly. Teacher Yu must be very anxious to not see us all morning."

Ai Tingya was taught by Luo Feng to prioritize her studies the last time they talked about opening a branch. She had always remembered this in her heart. She had to return to the classroom even though she was still panting.

"Don't be anxious. Let's rest for a while more or talk about opening a branch."

Luo Feng didn't want Ai Tingya to be tired, so he found a random reason to let her rest in the shop for two more minutes.

Speaking of opening a branch, Ai Tingya became serious and prepared to hear Luo Feng's opinion.

Luo Feng had no choice but to take back his previous words. "I think Lu Zhao is a good employee. In the future, if we open a branch, she can help train new employees and manage the new shop. This way, we can save a lot of trouble, so it's understandable to give her a higher salary."

Indeed, Luo Feng was very satisfied with Lu Zhao among the employees.

...

Ai Tingya nodded in agreement. "You're so thoughtful. Just do as you think. I support you."

She firmly believed that every decision Luo Feng made had a legitimate reason, so she trusted him unconditionally. She had long been prepared to be a good wife and would definitely agree with him after all.

The system's voice sounded in Luo Feng's mind just as Ai Tingya made up her mind.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully investing and obtaining 100% of Ai Tingya's trust.]

61 Carefully Selected Gifts, Good Eyesight!

"It's about time. Let's go back quickly." Ai Tingya sat for another 20 minutes at Luo Feng's request.

She seemed to have nails under her butt and couldn't sit still no matter what. She glanced at the school gate from time to time and kept wanting to go back to the classroom as she chatted with Luo Feng.

Luo Feng had no choice but to follow her wishes.

"It's almost lunchtime, let's go back after dinner." Luo Feng got up and grabbed his phone, "Let's go, I'll treat you guys to a meal"

!

Xiao Fei, who had been squatting in the corner of the console and trying her best to reduce her presence, popped her head out. "Hehe, Luo Feng is so generous. What are you going to treat us to?"

She quickly tidied up the operating table, put all the cups and spoons back in place, and stood upright, waiting to be fed.

Ai Tingya suddenly walked over and grabbed Xiao Fei's hand. "Luo Feng, go back to school and eat in the cafeteria. I haven't eaten with Xiao Fei alone in a long time. We'll go alone today."

Luo Feng was a little surprised. Ai Tingya's request hurt him a little.

What secret could it be that he could not listen to?

"A-Alright" Luo Feng scratched his face awkwardly, "Go back to the classroom early after you're done eating, then… I'll head back first."

He felt strange. He took two steps forward and turned around to take another look. After confirming that Ai Tingya had no intention of asking him to stay, he walked towards the school gate with doubts.

After he left, Xiao Fei gently shook Ai Tingya's hand. "What's wrong with you two? Are you hiding something from Luo Feng?"

Ai Tingya nodded and said shyly, "I want to buy a gift for Luo Feng. Can you accompany me shopping?"

So that was why. Xiao Fei heaved a sigh of relief. "Let's go. I love shopping."

The two of them closed the shop and hung up the sign that they were resting in the afternoon. They walked hand in hand towards the commercial street.

However, Ai Tingya did not find any satisfactory gifts after shopping for half an hour. Clothes, wallet, belt… These gifts were slightly tacky and casual.

Ai Tingya wanted to buy something that Luo Feng could always use.

"Then why don't you buy him a watch so that he can wear it all the time?" Xiao Fei suggested it seriously. "That way, he can think of you when he sees the watch."

"Don't joke around," Ai Tingya said shyly, her eyes secretly glancing at the watch shop.

What Xiao Fei said made sense, but it was still a little different from Ai Tingya's expectations.

The two of them continued walking. A bright little shop caught Ai Tingya's attention. Ai Tingya's eyes lit up when she saw the mobile phone counter.

…

In Class One's classroom.

Luo Feng sat alone in his seat, supporting his face with his hands as he stared blankly at Ai Tingya's actions. He had an indescribable feeling in his heart. It was as if a bee was crawling in his heart, and his throat felt slightly numb.

His mind kept replaying the scene in the morning, wondering what had made Ai Tingya angry.

"Is it because I gave you too much money?" Luo Feng muttered, feeling uncomfortable.

Why would Ai Tingya refuse to eat with him? What is she going to talk to Xiao Fei about?

Luo Feng patted his face and reflected on whether he was being too pretentious. He should immediately stop making meaningless guesses. He should focus on learning!

"Yo, Luo Feng, why are you sitting here alone? Where's your wife?" Lei Jin sneakily squeezed next to Luo Feng, "Business was good this morning, what should you thank me with?"

It was fine if he didn't mention this, but once he did, Luo Feng got angry.

"You almost tired us to death, don't spout nonsense next time." Luo Feng warned.

"Brother, don't mind me. I'll definitely be careful with my words and actions!" Lei Jin changed the topic. "Why did you come back alone? Where's Ai Tingya?"

He could always accurately mention Luo Feng's worries.

"Who knows, she went out to play with her little sister, and talk about stuff, the kind that I'm not allowed to listen to." Luo Feng's voice was filled with sadness.

This was the first time Ai Tingya had shaken him off.

Lei Jin pouted in disdain seeing his coy expression. "She's just going out to play with someone. Look at you, you're like a little widow guarding an empty room. Those who don't know might think that you've been dumped by Ai Tingya."

His voice was not loud, but it was very clear.

The other male students in the classroom were like sharks that had smelled blood. They swung their tails and swam over, instantly surrounding Luo Feng.

"Luo Feng, are you going to break up with Ai Tingya?"

"What's wrong with you guys? You took the morning off. Did you fight?"

"You can't make Ai Tingya sad. If you have any difficulties, tell us. We'll definitely help!"

The students had all kinds of guesses in their hearts, and they were all worried that Luo Feng and Ai Tingya had a conflict.

Luo Feng was surrounded in the middle and did not know how to answer.

At this moment, a gentle voice interrupted everyone's burning gossip. "No, we're very close."

Ai Tingya stood at the door of the classroom with a white bag in her hand.

The boys in the circle automatically made way to avoid blocking Luo Feng's vision.

Luo Feng stood up with mixed feelings: "You're back, where have you been for so long?"

He did not know how long Ai Tingya had been standing at the door listening. Would she misunderstand that he was badmouthing her while she was not around? He did not want there to be a misunderstanding.

Ai Tingya handed the bag to him with both hands. "I bought you a gift. Open it and take a look."

There was a square box in the paper bag. A logo of an apple with a bite lay quietly in the bag.

Luo Feng's heart raced. Luo Feng took out the box under the curious and envious gazes of his classmates.

He opened it and saw a silver-white Fruit phone!

"This…" This thing should be very expensive! Luo Feng was so shocked that he was speechless.

In this era where smartphones were not common, very few people knew the name of the Fruit phone. Ai Tingya actually bought him the latest model!

...

Ai Tingya smiled and said, "I saw that you were always looking at your phone and felt that this suited you, so I bought it. Do you like it?"

"I like it!" Luo Feng held it lovingly, "I'll bring it with me wherever I go in the future, I won't change it for the rest of my life!"

It might really last forever with the stable system of the early Apple.

The other students were so envious that their saliva almost fell to the ground. In this era where the streets were filled with phone booths, having a portable phone was similar to riding a luxury car to school. They would be the center of attention no matter where they went.

It seemed that opening a milk tea shop was really profitable! Ai Tingya from the orphanage had become a rich woman.

"Luo Feng, can I touch it? I'm already tired of touching my brick machine."

"Damn it, I'm so envious! Why don't I have a girlfriend!"

"It's the legendary Fruit phone! I'll help you clean up. Luo Feng, let me take a look."

Luo Feng hadn't touched it enough himself. He put it into his pocket lovingly and said, "Tingya bought this for me. Only I can touch it." 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝒏𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡．𝙣𝒆𝙩

"Don't be so petty." Ai Tingya blushed. "They just want to take a look."

...

62 It Is The Last Night, What Are Your Dreams?

After a short commotion, the students returned to their seats and continued to study.

Third High School was already at the final sprint stage. Everyone wished they could have 25 hours a day and could memorize more books.

The atmosphere in the class was oppressive and tense, like a taut bowstring that could break at any time.

It was time for evening self-study again. Everyone's ears pricked up when they knew that Luo Feng was about to start his lecture. They hated that they were not a recorder at this moment and could not record every word of Luo Feng's.

!

However, humans were not machines after all. Sometimes, more haste less speed meant that the more one wanted to achieve the perfect effect, the harder it was to remember. The more one wanted to calm down and memorize books, the more lyrics they would remember.

The students were tired and anxious, looking really pitiful.

Ring—

The evening self-study bell rang. Teacher Yu walked to the back row and Luo Feng walked to the podium. The two of them tacitly changed seats and prepared to start today's lecture.

Luo Feng looked at the students below. The dark circles under their eyes were getting worse. If they couldn't listen to the lecture now, it would make them even more nervous.

He said softly, "There's no lecture tonight. Let's talk about something light."

"What?" The students looked up in confusion, including Teacher Yu, who was sitting at the back. She had never heard of Luo Feng having other plans tonight.

Luo Feng explained, "The closer the exam is, the more you need to relax. Your mentality is also very important, so I won't be teaching tonight. Let's talk… Hmm… Dreams. Or what do you want to do after the exam?"

Hearing this, the students looked at each other. Clearly, they had not entered the mood yet and were wondering if they should follow Luo Feng's thoughts.

Luo Feng called out bluntly, "Teacher Yu, lead everyone first."

Teacher Yu felt that it was strange and even a little familiar. It turned out that she would be called up by her students to answer questions one day. However, she also agreed with Luo Feng's approach, so she was very cooperative.

"After your exam, the thing that I want most is to be evaluated as an 'outstanding teacher'. I feel that with your current results, it won't be difficult for me to be evaluated as an outstanding teacher." Teacher Yu didn't treat everyone as outsiders at all.

In the end, she added, "Of course, don't feel pressured. Just tackle it with your usual attitude. I believe your efforts will definitely be rewarded."

"Teacher Yu, you're floating again as you speak. Tell me about your dream," a usually mischievous boy jeered.

The other students also echoed, "That's right, Teacher Yu. Tell us about it."

Teacher Yu was helpless against the students. "My dream… Is to be a good teacher."

"Tsk—" The students chuckled and dragged out their words, clearly dissatisfied with this formulaic answer.

Teacher Yu said seriously, "I'm serious. Of course, my so-called good teacher is the kind of good teacher in your hearts. He can't be graded and has no standards, so I don't know if I'm considered your good teacher."

The classroom fell silent. Everyone turned to look at Teacher Yu.

A moment later, enthusiastic replies sounded in the classroom.

"Of course not. Teacher Yu, we've all seen your efforts."

"Even though you're usually fierce, you're indeed a good teacher in charge."

"Old Yu, you're the best teacher I've ever met."

"Alright, alright! Lower your voice!" Teacher Yu was both happy and nervous. If she made too much noise and the other classes complained, the director would ask her for tea again.

At the same time, she was very happy that she had obtained the students' recognition!

"You only know how to frame me. Tell me about yourselves," Teacher Yu said to maintain order.

With her taking the lead, the students immediately let go of themselves.

"I'm going on a trip after the exam. My dream is to rob tombs… Ah, no, I should consider it archeology," a boy stood up and said proudly.

"My dream is to be a teacher. I hope I can get into a teacher training university."

"I want to be a singer. After the exam, I am going to work part-time at a live bar. Remember to come and support me."

"I f*cking want sincere love too!"

The students were actively discussing their dreams, but they were led astray by "sincere love."

All their dreams and future were thrown aside. Their faces were filled with "looking forward to gossip" as they looked eagerly at Luo Feng on the stage. After all, how could they bypass the only young couple in class when it came to love?

"Teacher Luo, what's your dream?" Lei Jin took the lead in jeering.

Luo Feng coughed in embarrassment. "I haven't thought of what to say. Why don't you tell me first, Ai Tingya?" 𝐛𝐞𝐝𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝗺

"Ai Tingya!"

"Ai Tingya!"

"Ai Tingya!"

The students shouted and cheered, asking Ai Tingya to stand up and say a few words no matter what.

After three years of interaction and Luo Feng's modifications, Ai Tingya was no longer the unknown bookworm from before. She stood up generously.

Facing the class, she said, "My dream is a little tacky. I want to be a money-making businessman and repay the orphanage that raised me."

It was simple and grounded, down to earth. Because Ai Tingya and Luo Feng had opened a milk tea shop, everyone had almost forgotten Ai Tingya's background. Now that she was mentioned again, it felt like a lifetime had passed.

Many things had really happened in just two years.

Luo Feng replied appropriately, "Ai Tingya is right. My dream is to realize Ai Tingya's dream."

Ai Tingya's face instantly turned red, and even her ears turned red. Her eyes were hot, and her bright eyes were like clear springs as she looked at Luo Feng lovingly.

"Puff!"

They were caught off guard by another mouthful of dog food. The students originally thought that they had long mastered the "Indestructible Diamond". No matter what tricks the young couple had, they would not be affected.

Who knew that Feng Li could also stuff dog food into his mouth? He had to eat it.

At the same time, everyone was touched.

"Luo Feng, you're such a happy guy. I'm so envious!"

...

"I also want a good girl to help her realize her dream. Ai Tingya, do you still have any sisters?"

"You must treat Ai Tingya well. Don't bully her, or don't blame me for snatching her away."

"I got a star student candy. It's so sweet. I have no regrets in my life!"

The classroom was in chaos again. Teacher Yu was so busy being gratified that she forgot to stop it.

Luo Feng raised his index finger to his mouth and looked at the back door. The students also looked over— The Dean had a serious poker face. He pursed his lips and warned everyone not to make a fuss.

Then, he snorted and waded around with his big belly to another place. The students covered their mouths and snickered, feeling that that had been a little exciting.

Luo Feng's tone changed. "Therefore, we have to continue learning for our dreams."

"Tonight is the last night of my lecture. After that, I need everyone to revise freely according to their own situation. Let's work hard together."

63 The College Entrance Examination Begins, Ai Tingya Comes to Stay Over

The intense revision period finally ended and the college entrance examination soon arrived.

Previously, Ai Tingya had also stayed for a few days in order to make it easier for her to revise. However, because she was too embarrassed to disturb him for too long, Luo Feng would send her home on his bicycle every night after she finished revising.

As the orphanage was in the suburbs, it was very far from the city. In order to reduce unnecessary trouble, Ai Tingya moved into Luo Feng's house.

According to the old rules, Luo Feng's room was given to Ai Tingya while he slept on the temporary bed on the balcony.

!

The family of four sat at the dining table during dinner time.

Mother Luo did not stop giving Ai Tingya food. "Tingya, the bed sheets and bedding in the room have just been changed. Auntie has sunned it for two days and is very soft when you sleep. Don't worry and stay here. Maintain your mentality and take the exams well! Eat more to nourish yourself."

Luo Feng felt that perhaps in Mother Luo's eyes, Ai Tingya needed to nourish her body at any time. She did not think that Ai Tingya had ever gained weight.

In the blink of an eye, half a plate of sweet and sour pork ribs was in Ai Tingya's bowl.

"Mom, don't make Tingya so full." Luo Feng couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to fight for some pork ribs for himself.

Mother Luo glared at her biological son and turned to complain to Ai Tingya. "Tingya, look at this disappointing kid in my family. It's precisely because of his unfair mentality that you're so thin! If he bullies you, just tell me and I'll teach him a lesson!"

Ai Tingya covered her mouth and could not stop laughing. She could not help Luo Feng explain.

Luo Feng's eyes widened. He could not believe that this was what his biological mother had said. Does he look that greedy?

"Aiya." Father Luo sighed and helped his son smooth things over. "Xiao Ai is not a child. Let her eat by herself. If you keep putting food in her bowl, she won't be able to eat what she likes."

Mother Luo snorted and picked up another set of food before giving up seeing that her husband was not on her side. "Auntie won't pick the food for you anymore, Tingya. Eat it yourself."

"Thank you, Auntie. Thank you, Uncle." Ai Tingya picked up her chopsticks and obediently buried her head in her food.

Luo Feng sighed, feeling that he was losing his status at home.

After dinner, Mother Luo went to wash the dishes while Father Luo sat in the living room watching television. Ai Tingya returned to the room to study. Luo Feng lay on the small bed on the balcony with his hands behind his head and stared at the ceiling in a daze.

He glanced at his parents from time to time. Why weren't they back in their room to sleep?

He couldn't wait any longer. He walked to the door of his room and grabbed the handle. Father Luo's voice came from behind.

"Don't disturb Xiao Ai. You have to revise again. You can't be proud of the college entrance examination, understand?"

Luo Feng turned around and said, "I'll go in to take something."

At this moment, Mother Luo walked out of the kitchen. "I've placed all the things you usually need on the balcony. Go over there and look for them."

Luo Feng had really lost to his parents. So they were not giving him a chance to enter the room to see Ai Tingya?

"Got it!" Luo Feng replied angrily and lay back on the small bed on the balcony.

Father Luo finally turned off the television and returned to the bedroom with a yawn at nine o'clock. After a while, Mother Luo also entered.

Crack—

The door to his parents' bedroom closed. Luo Feng, who was taking a nap, opened his eyes, lifted the blanket, got up, and tiptoed to the door.

He realized that the door was ajar. Luo Feng was overjoyed. Ai Tingya had left the door open for him!

He couldn't wait to push open the door and saw Ai Tingya sitting on the bed with a small blanket on her lap. She was reading a document.

"What do you want to take?" Ai Tingya looked up, her big sparkling eyes brighter than the stars in the sky.

Luo Feng hugged her and rolled onto the bed, scaring Ai Tingya so much that she almost cried out.

"What are you doing!" Ai Tingya lowered her voice and patted Luo Feng's back nervously and shyly.

"Didn't you leave the door open for me to enter?" Luo Feng asked even though he knew the answer.

"Stop fooling around." Ai Tingya twisted twice but could not break free. "Close the door first!"

Luo Feng obediently closed the door gently and lay beside Ai Tingya, admiring her side profile with a blissful expression.

Ai Tingya pushed Luo Feng with both hands. "You should go out. I can't calm down here."

She was afraid that she would not be able to hold back and develop further with Luo Feng. She might really give everything to Luo Feng if not for the college entrance examination.

Luo Feng grabbed her hand and placed it on his face. He smelled the fragrance of the shower gel on Ai Tingya's body. "I won't do anything. I just want to lie beside you. Tell me honestly, have you been waiting for me? Otherwise, why would you leave the door open for me?"

"Who's waiting for you?" Ai Tingya's eyes drifted to the side. "I just heard that you want to take something."

Luo Feng pulled her into his arms. "We're already in this relationship. Why are you still shy? It's not like you've never stayed at my house."

Ai Tingya buried her head in Luo Feng's chest and said in a muffled voice, "I don't want Uncle and Auntie to think I'm indecent."

Luo Feng chuckled and said, "My mother won't think that way. In her heart, you're already my wife!"

"That won't do either!" Ai Tingya said stubbornly. "I don't want to leave a bad impression."

She thought about it and still felt embarrassed. She pushed Luo Feng away and said, "You should go out."

"No, I'll sleep here tonight!" Luo Feng tightened his grip, and the two of them fooled around. 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝑙.𝘰𝑟𝑔

Little did he know that Father and Mother Luo could accurately grasp the situation outside in the bedroom beside him.

"Did the brat slip in?" Father Luo asked.

"The door rang just now. He must have gone in." Mother Luo poured moisturizer on her hands and patted them on her face bit by bit. She sighed and said, "The couple really can't be separated for a moment."

Father Luo said worriedly, "Young people don't know how to control themselves. I hope they won't delay tomorrow's exam."

"No, it's not Tingya's first time staying at home. Little Feng knows what to do." Mother Luo was not prepared to bother the two of them.

Perhaps they would be able to perform better tomorrow after venting the pressure tonight.

She pretended not to hear the sound of the door opening and closing. This was called maternal love!

"Sleep early. Wake up early tomorrow morning to prepare breakfast." Mother Luo urged and turned off the lights to sleep.

…

...

The next morning, Luo Feng was in a daze when he heard a lion roar outside.

"Get up! Get up and eat breakfast!"

Luo Feng sat up in shock and felt that there was nothing beside him. Ai Tingya had disappeared at some point.

He put on his clothes and walked out of the room. He happened to bump into Mother Luo coming out of the kitchen with a cup of warm milk in her hand.

Mother Luo was not surprised that Luo Feng had slept in the room last night. "Come and eat. Tingya finished eating early and is already packing up."

Luo Feng rubbed his sleepy eyes and sat on the table. He saw the table full of buns, pancakes, eggs, milk… She must have bought every variety in the breakfast shop. When had he ever eaten such a sumptuous breakfast at home?

"Mom, is it the new year?" Luo Feng smiled and picked up the milk.

Indeed, this was the top-level treatment that college entrance examination students should be receiving!

64 Writing So Fast That It Was Scary, The Terrifying Luo Feng

Luo Feng felt that his stomach was too small as he guarded the sumptuous breakfast table.

"Mom, you're the best. I feel like I'm filled with strength. I'll definitely get the best results today!" Luo Feng was grateful for this treatment. After all, it was unknown if there would be a next time.

"Just don't make me angry. It would be better than anything. When will you be as sensible as Tingya? It's such an important day and you still need your mother to call you up. Tingya woke up early and is already prepared to set off!"

In the living room, Ai Tingya, who was sitting upright, looked over curiously.

Luo Feng finally understood that this top-notch treatment was all prepared for Ai Tingya. He was just by the way.

He could not help but ask himself if he was a spare.

…

The college entrance examination was taken by all third year students in the city at the same time, so the students of the same school would be separated and assigned to different schools' examination halls. Coincidentally, Luo Feng and Ai Tingya were assigned to two different high schools.

Ai Tingya was taking the exam in her school while Luo Feng went to another school that was relatively far away, so the two of them had to get up early to prepare.

Mr. Luo had a driver's license and borrowed a small car from his colleague in advance to pick them up.

Luo Feng opened the trunk and loaded his bicycle in just as he was about to leave.

Father Luo was puzzled. "I'll pick you up after the exam. Why did you bring your bicycle?"

Luo Feng said, "No need. I'll pick Tingya up after the exam. Just help my mother prepare food at home."

Father Luo looked at his son strangely.

Their school was a little far away. It would take 20 minutes to arrive by bicycle. Ai Tingya would have to wait at the gate if Luo Feng went to pick her up. Wouldn't that delay things?

"Alright." Luo Feng closed the trunk and said, "I have my own arrangements. Don't worry."

The three of them got into the car.

Mr. Luo sent Ai Tingya to the examination hall first while Luo Feng pushed the bicycle down and placed it in the guardhouse at the school gate. He was too famous in his school, and almost everyone knew him, so the guard readily agreed to help him look after the bicycle.

"Tingya, I'll be the first to rush out of the examination hall to see you after I finish the paper. Run over and let's go home together." Luo Feng pulled Ai Tingya and sent her into the school.

Ai Tingya looked at Luo Feng reluctantly and pouted. "If only we were in the same examination hall. I really don't want to be separated from you."

She rarely revealed her weak side. Today was the college entrance examination, the most important day for a student. Even someone as strong as Ai Tingya could not help but be nervous and afraid.

Luo Feng thought to himself, You didn't have this attitude last night. You even wanted to chase me out of the room.

He stroked Ai Tingya's head and said, "Do you still remember our previous agreement? If I become the top scorer, you'll be my girlfriend, even though we've been together for a long time."

Their intimate actions attracted the attention of the other examinees. The students from their school had experienced the grand scene of the two of them confessing to each other in the entire school, so they were not very surprised. When the examinees from the other schools heard the content of their agreement, they all revealed shocked expressions.

Wasn't this bragging too much?!

Ai Tingya was thin-skinned. She took a small step back shyly sensing that someone was looking at her. "Then you have to do your best. I'll wait for you."

After giving her a few instructions, Luo Feng watched Ai Tingya walk into the examination hall.

Then he returned to the car and Father Luo sent him to another remote high school examination hall.

…

The exam began.

On the first morning, they only took the language test.

Luo Feng received the paper and deliberately slowed down. He did not finish it in no time like in the mock exam.

That was because the examination hall had a rule that they were only allowed to hand in their papers half an hour before the exam ended. Luo Feng could not hand in his papers immediately after he finished them. He could only think of ways to stall for time so that he would not finish his papers and wait in boredom.

He picked up the paper and skimmed through it. It was not difficult.

After the bell rang, he wrote without stopping!

The invigilator was not from their school and did not know Luo Feng. However, he could not help but look sideways twice when he saw this student's posture when he was doing the questions. After teaching for so many years, this was the first time the invigilator had seen someone do the papers so quickly. He was so confident!

The college entrance examination papers were a total of eight pages and took 150 minutes.

Luo Feng wrote very quickly. He finished four pages in half an hour and flipped to the second page of the paper.

It was so fast that not only did the invigilator look sideways, but the other candidates also looked up at him.

There were also students from the same school in the same examination room as Luo Feng. They all knew Luo Feng. Originally, they were surprised to hear someone flipping through the papers. Things seemed to make sense again when they saw that it was Luo Feng. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝐧𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝐦

However, the boy sitting beside Luo Feng was from another school. He had never seen Luo Feng before and only felt that sitting beside him was very stressful.

This was because Luo Feng had written too quickly!

He sat at the side and could see very clearly from the corner of his eye that Luo Feng was writing questions faster than him copying books. It was as if he did not even need to think before he solved them in a few moves.

The boy was under a lot of pressure, as if there were two big rocks on his shoulders.

One had to know that he was considered a top figure in their school. His classmates envied him and the teachers liked him. He felt that he had prepared well.

However, the students in the same examination room were actually so much faster than him. This made him doubt his life.

Am I a frog at the bottom of a well? Was my previous brilliant results an illusion?

The boy did not want to pay attention to Luo Feng. He tried his best to control his Crowd Control's attention and focus on the test paper. However, when Luo Feng finished his essay and began to check the test paper, the boy's heart began to panic.

Luo Feng spun the pen in his right hand leisurely, making him look over constantly.

Luo Feng flipped the paper over and over again three times. The sound of flipping the paper was especially crisp in the examination room, making all the candidates very nervous.

The exam had only started for an hour. How could anyone have already completed it!

Luo Feng felt that he was about to memorize the contents of the test paper. What made it worse was that he had already checked it three times. It was extremely boring, so he simply lay on the table and began to sleep.

When the boy beside him saw this scene, he was so nervous that he was sweating profusely.

He could not help but wonder if his ability was too poor. Otherwise, why was he still reading the reading questions? Had he been blindly confident in the past? Were there so many hidden dragons and phoenixes in this college entrance examination?

...

Should I be ready to repeat?

Luo Feng did not know that his lazy behavior made the students beside him doubt their lives.

He lay on the table and could not sleep either. He closed his eyes for a while before opening them again to look at the clock on the wall.

"Candidates, please take note that there are only 30 minutes left until the end of the exam. Please take note of the time!" A notification sounded from the broadcast.

Luo Feng had finally waited for this moment!

He stood up and folded the test papers, answer sheets, and draft paper before placing them on the podium.

Then, he ran out of the examination hall excitedly. He was so fast that the invigilator did not even have time to remind him.

"Tingya, I'm here to pick you up!" Luo Feng ran out of the school excitedly.

There were already parents waiting to pick their kids up at the door. On the way, Luo Feng listened to rows of private cars. He walked down the street and looked back for a taxi as he walked.

65 The Top Scorer of the College Entrance Examination Has Been Determined

The examination hall where Luo Feng was was relatively remote. Coupled with the fact that there was a private car by the roadside to pick him up, he walked for 10 minutes before reaching the main street. He waved his hand and hailed a taxi.

When the driver heard that it was the college entrance examination hall, he turned around and looked at Luo Feng's outfit. Wasn't this a student?

The driver said in surprise, "Student, it's too late for you to go to the examination hall now. The examination has already started for a while!"

Luo Feng asked curiously, "I just finished the exam."

The driver laughed awkwardly. "You scared me to death. I thought you were late. You came out so quickly. Student, you probably did very well."

Driving a taxi was a very boring job, so most drivers were very talkative. They could chat all the way with any passenger they met.

"It's alright. The questions this year are relatively easy," Luo Feng said casually.

The driver raised his voice happily. "Really? My son is also taking the college entrance examination today. He's in the examination hall you're going to. I'll pick him up."

A few minutes later, the taxi stopped at the school entrance. The driver did not ask for the fare and said that he was picking up the child and sending Luo Feng over.

At this moment, there were already many parents gathering at the school gate to pick up their children.

A female reporter holding a microphone from Crown City TV Station stood at the front. Beside her was a cameraman carrying a camera.

The female reporter's name was Liang Huan, and she was the ace reporter of Crown City TV Station. She had heard that there was a genius who scored full marks in all subjects in this school, but she could not figure out which examination hall he was in, so she came here to squat and see if she could try her luck.

Even if they couldn't meet, he could still get the headlines by interviewing the college entrance examination students.

"Why isn't he out yet?" Liang Huan craned his neck to look.

Some candidates had already submitted their papers at this time in the past. But this year, they did not even see a shadow. Liang Huan kept holding the microphone. It was so sore that she shook it with another hand.

The cameraman beside her found it even harder. He looked at the machine for a long time and did not dare to put it down.

It was too difficult to do useless work. Liang Huan looked around, wanting to interview the parents.

Luo Feng, who was in the crowd, attracted her attention. Luo Feng was good-looking to begin with, the kind that would immediately attract her attention. Liang Huan liked his looks very much.

He walked to Luo Feng and extended the microphone. "Hello, I'm a reporter from Crown City TV Station. Are you here to pick up the candidates?"

"Yes." Luo Feng nodded.

"You don't look too old. Are you the candidate's elder brother or younger brother?" Liang Huan continued to ask.

Luo Feng thought for a moment and said, "I'm her boyfriend."

In any case, he would be soon.

Liang Huan was slightly disappointed. Such a good-looking boy actually had a partner.

"What kind of good results do you expect your girlfriend to get?"

"Just perform normally. A standard worthy of Harvard or Stanford will do," Luo Feng said. He remembered that in his previous life, Ai Tingya had been admitted to Havard.

After his teachings in the current world, these two schools would be within grasp.

"Har…" Liang Huan, who relied on eloquence to make a living, did not know how to answer.

"Young people nowadays are more ambitious than the sky. Can you get into Harvard so easily? Every year, less than 10 people in the entire city's high schools get into Harvard. How can she just "perform normally"? Wouldn't she go up to heaven if she performed extraordinarily?" She thought to herself.

"Haha, your girlfriend will definitely be this year's top scorer if she can get into Harvard," Liang Huan said politely. She wanted to quickly end the interview and find a reliable person.

Unexpectedly, Luo Feng said seriously, "She can't be this year's top scorer."

?

Liang Huan felt very confused. Was he confident or not?

Luo Feng explained, "I'm not doubting my girlfriend's strength. It is because I promised her that I will be the top scholar."

When he said this, the driver also squeezed to Luo Feng's side. He was stunned on the spot.

Liang Huan said in surprise, "Aren't you the candidate's family?"

"That's right." Luo Feng nodded. "Is it strange that I came to pick up my girlfriend after I finished my paper?"

Liang Huan was stuck and did not know what to say.

So you praised your girlfriend for so long just to praise yourself! Why are the children nowadays so scheming?

Vice Principal Liu walked out of the school with a smile just as she was rolling her eyes in her heart and ignoring Luo Feng.

He walked in front of the crowd and said, "Parents, the children will be out soon. Please stand on both sides and don't delay the children's lunch. Thank you for your cooperation."

The parents listened to him and moved to the sides in an orderly manner.

Vice Principal Liu often spoke on behalf of the school of course, Liang Huan knew him. He rushed forward and said, "Vice Principal Liu, do you have time to accept our interview?"

Vice Principal Liu's already radiant smile became even more energetic, when he saw the platform logo, his and his entire body seemed to be glowing. He had always remembered the situation he had learned from Teacher Yu— Luo Feng's results were very stable!

"Go ahead," Vice Principal Liu said politely.

Liang Huan finally found a reliable interview subject. She cleared her throat and was about to speak when Vice Principal Liu suddenly walked away.

She was a little surprised. Her eyes followed Vice Principal Liu's back and saw him walk to the boy she had just interviewed.

When Vice Principal Liu saw Luo Feng at the door, he was abnormally excited. "Luo Feng, why are you here? Aren't you in another examination hall?"

Luo Feng said honestly, "I came over after handing in my paper to answer Ya."

Vice Principal Liu's heart pounded when he saw that his mind was filled with love. He whispered, "Did you check carefully?"

"Three times."

"Have you written down your name and test number?"

"I did."

"Do you think the questions are difficult?"

...

"It's simple."

Vice Principal Liu asked them one by one before he felt relieved. "Alright! Alright! I wish you good results in advance!"

Liang Huan walked to the side and realized that Vice Principal Liu was looking at Luo Feng as if he was looking at a prize. Could it be that this student was not bragging? She muttered in her heart.

She smiled and interrupted, "Vice Principal Liu, is this your student?"

"That's right!" Vice Principal Liu raised his voice and said proudly, "The number one in the cohort!"

This shout attracted the attention of the parents who were waiting for the students!

The driver standing at the side was dumbfounded. He actually believed him when he said that the questions were not difficult. Of course, the top student in the cohort said that it was not difficult!

Liang Huan was so shocked that she could not reply.

If this student in front of her was the number one, wouldn't he be the genius who scored full marks in the mock exam? No wonder he was so confident that he would become the top scholar of the college entrance examination. He wasn't bragging!

She was too narrow-minded.

Liang Huan felt that she was too lucky. A random student she caught would be the future top scorer of the college entrance examination. She hurriedly handed over the microphone, wanting to capture a few more scenes.

...

Ring—

The school bell rang. The exam was over.

"Vice Principal Liu, I'm going to fetch Tingya. Bye." Luo Feng greeted and walked straight to the guard room. He did not give Liang Huan any time to speak.ｂ𝚎ｄｎ𝚘ｖ𝚎𝚕．𝚘𝚛𝚐

66 Why Is It You Two Again?

Liang Huan's eyes seemed to be glued on Luo Feng. She watched as Luo Feng pushed out a bicycle from the guardhouse. Then, a girl walked to Luo Feng's side.

Liang Huan did not care about the girl's appearance since the genius who scored full marks in all subjects was right in front of him.

She watched as the two of them got on the bicycle and zoomed past her like the wind. Liang Huan chased after them for two steps and realized that she could not catch up. She felt so regretful that she wanted to cry.

Why couldn't she seize the opportunity?! That was so rare!

!

The cameraman who followed did not forget to add fuel to the fire. "The station called just now and said that the interview was especially good. They asked you to capture more footage. Ah… It seems impossible now…"

There was only one genius in the entire city who scored full marks in all subjects!

Liang Huan was so regretful that she felt like a cat was scratching her heart. Why would she interview the principal for no reason! Wouldn't it be fine if she just caught that student to interview?

The driver who sent Luo Feng here pulled his son into the car while she was feeling regretful.

"Sit on the left." The driver looked at the rearview mirror and commanded his son.

His son was dumbfounded. He so used to sitting in the car, why was his father so particular today? "Dad, what's wrong?"

The driver said proudly, "I just pulled in a genius who scored full marks in all subjects. Take the seat he used to sit in so that you can ride on his good luck and strive to score better!"

His son was speechless and silently moved his butt.

…

The two-day college entrance examination quickly ended.

On the last day, Luo Feng was not in time to pick Ai Tingya up because there were too many parents picking up the students on the last day. He was stuck on the road.

Ai Tingya did not see Luo Feng when she reached the gate.

She could only hold her pencil case and stand by the roadside to wait.

A beautiful girl who was alone was very eye-catching. The parents and students passing by could not help but take a few more glances. They were also guessing who could bear to let the beautiful girl who had just finished her exam wait alone.

The parents passing were not the only ones who noticed Ai Tingya, Liang Huan was also waiting at the gate.

Ever since she missed Luo Feng, she seemed to have stood rooted at the gate. Unfortunately, she had not seen Luo Feng in the first two exams. It was the last day of today, so there was probably not much hope.

Liang Huan found it boring after interviewing a few parents. There was none as explosive as the interview on the first day!

Coincidentally, she saw Ai Tingya waiting at the door. As a reporter who had interviewed all kinds of famous people, Ai Tingya had a face that she admired.

If he couldn't interview a star student, he could interview a beauty!

Liang Huan walked over and said, "Hello, student. I'm Liang Huan, a reporter from Crown City TV Station. Can I interview you for a few questions?"

Ai Tingya glanced at the camera aimed at her and said generously, "Alright, go ahead."

Liang Huan subconsciously softened her voice, seeing that she was beautiful and polite. "You must have a lot to say after the tense college entrance examination. Do you mind sharing it with everyone in front of the camera?"

Ai Tingya had a strong camera sense. She smiled and said, "Of course. I unknowingly ended three years of intense learning in high school. There were many people who helped me along the way. I'm very grateful to them and hope that I can share my joy with them when the results come out."

It was very official and appropriate.

Liang Huan would have thought that Ai Tingya had prepared the script in advance if she wasn't the one who picked her randomly. However, the answer was too boring. Liang Huan wanted to end the interview after asking two more questions.

Ai Tingya changed the topic and said, "But right now, the person I want to see the most is still that person."

The description was rather ambiguous, and the reporter's souls burned with questions. Liang Huan smiled and said, "Is the person you're referring to your boyfriend?"

Ai Tingya blushed and said, "He's not my boyfriend yet…"

Wait…

Liang Huan suddenly felt that this answer was a little familiar. They were clearly in love, but they had yet to be confirmed together. Why was it similar to the boy from before?

"Haha, he must have helped you a lot. What do you want to say to him through the camera?" Liang Huan continued digging.

Ai Tingya was so embarrassed that her ears turned red. She mustered her courage and said, "I want to tell him that it doesn't matter even if he can't become the top scorer of the college entrance examination. I'll be with him no matter where he goes! I hope he won't feel pressured."

Why was this about the top scorer of the college entrance examination again?

Liang Huan felt that she had really poked the nest of the college entrance examination top scholar.

The cameraman nudged Liang Huan with his elbow, indicating for her to continue asking. This was good content that could increase the ratings!

Liang Huan raised the microphone and said, "May I ask what kind of results you expect?"

Ai Tingya smiled and said, "I hope I can get into the same university as that person."

"Such as?"

"Harvard and Stanford. We have the best feelings for these two universities."

? 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝑙．𝑜𝑟𝘨

Liang Huan was sure that she had heard this line before.

The one she had met previously said that it was enough to be able to get into Harvard. This one had good feelings towards Harvard.

Liang Huan thought that she was a veteran reporter and had received professional training. No matter how shocked she was, she would not show it unless she could not help it…

Could the explosive content of the interviews in the past two days have come from the same family?

Liang Huan looked around and saw a familiar-looking boy. She pointed in the boy's direction and said, "Uh… Is he your boyfriend?"

Ai Tingya looked up and saw Luo Feng pushing through the crowd and running towards her. She threw herself into Luo Feng's arms and smiled happily.

Luo Feng stroked Ai Tingya's head dotingly. He looked up and realized that it was the reporter who interviewed him yesterday. "Hello, the reporter from Crown City TV Station."

Liang Huan roared in her heart. "It's really you!"

She did not know what expression to make. It would be a happy thing to be able to interview a genius with full marks and his partner, but the price was that she had to accept a love Critical Hit. The sacrifice was a little big.

"What a coincidence, hahaha." The corners of Liang Huan's mouth twitched. She really couldn't laugh anymore and could only signal the cameraman to take the scene carefully.

...

A face-to-face interview!

He had to record the happiness of this star student couple. She could not be the only one injured!

Ai Tingya thought of going on television and let go of Luo Feng shyly realizing that the camera was close.

"Reporter, we're going back to eat. Goodbye." The generous and proper girl suddenly became a little bird. Was this the magic of love?

In the past, Liang Huan was focused on her work and was insulated from love wherever she went. She suddenly wanted to taste the sweetness of love now that she saw their happy faces.

"Goodbye. I wish you all good results." Liang Huan waved her hand and watched the two of them disappear into the crowd hand in hand.

At this moment, the cameraman put down his phone and said, "The station just called and said that your interview was very good. The ratings have increased again."

What interview? Liang Huan wanted love.

"Whatever." She had a light-hearted appreciation for work results now. "The interview is over. Let's get off work."

…

Today, Luo Feng did not push his bicycle. The two of them held hands and walked down the road.

...

Ai Tingya asked curiously, "Where's your bicycle?"

Luo Feng looked at the sky and said sadly, "Just now, Vice Principal Liu called me and said that I am about to graduate and wanted me to leave my ride in the school as a memento. I agreed on impulse."

He understood that he was already preparing for the follow-on from the college entrance examination top scorer.

Ai Tingya covered her mouth and laughed. "It's good for them to keep it. We can come back often to take a look in the future."

67 They've Long Treated Ai Tingya As Family

The two of them held hands and strolled casually on the road.

Their three years of high school were very tight, they had to rush even after eating. Ai Tingya felt that she had not taken such a slow walk in a long time. Everything on the street seemed unfamiliar yet familiar at the same time. The store making the popcorn alone made Ai Tingya want to stand still and take a look.

"Do you want to eat?" Luo Feng took out his wallet.

"No, no. We're going back to eat soon."

!

Mother Luo was preparing a sumptuous dinner when they went out for the exam in the morning. Ai Tingya liked Mother Luo's cooking very much and had been thinking about it since she came out of the examination hall.

Just as the two of them were looking at each other affectionately, Luo Feng's phone buzzed.

The phone receiver honestly conveyed Mother Luo's lion roar. "Why aren't you back yet? The food is getting cold!"

It's already summer, how cold can it be? Luo Feng thought to himself. "Alright, we're on the way."

Ads by Pubfuture

There were still people waiting at home, so the two of them gave up on the idea of walking back slowly. Luo Feng hailed a taxi to step on the accelerator to quickly reach home.

Mother Luo had been waiting at the door for a long time.

The moment she saw Ai Tingya return, she hurriedly took the pencil case from her.

"Tingya is back. It's been hard on you for the exam. Quickly wash your hands and prepare to eat. Auntie made chicken soup for you. Nourish yourself well!" Mother Luo nagged as she led Ai Tingya into the kitchen.

There were four to five pots on the stove. Mother Luo opened them one by one to let Ai Tingya see the dishes today.

"It's so sumptuous, Auntie. You're amazing!" Ai Tingya said in surprise.

Her words made Mother Luo overjoyed.

Luo Feng was left alone on the doorstep. What was going on? Why didn't anyone care about him?

Coincidentally, Father Luo, who was passing by, saw his son standing at the door. "Why are you standing there? Come in and help."

Alright…

Luo Feng accepted reality. He was only fit for a life of hard work.

Actually, the two of them came back relatively late and did not need any help.

The dining table was filled with sumptuous delicacies. There were two types of fish. Mother Luo was best at bean paste fish and steamed bass. The braised pork knuckle was placed in the middle and was quite impressive. It was surrounded by sweet and sour pork and white oil belly strips.

Green vegetables could only be used as decorations.

"Wow! Our family is celebrating the new year! How can they eat so well!" Luo Feng exclaimed.

Usually, the three of them at home would eat one meat and one vegetable. Today, they must have brought out all their secrets.

Mother Luo came out of the kitchen with the bowls and chopsticks. "Of course we have to make it as grand as possible to celebrate the end of Tingya's college entrance examination. Hurry up and pour the drinks."

"Hey, hey, hey, mom, we have two college entrance examination students at home, okay?" Luo Feng protested.

Why? You mean there wouldn't be this table of dishes if I was the only one taking the college entrance examination?

Mother Luo rolled her eyes at him and said, "Our family's policy is to raise our son in austerity, our daughter in indulgence. You're benefiting from Tingya."

When Ai Tingya, who was in the kitchen, heard this, her hand that was scooping the soup suddenly paused. So the auntie already treated her as a family.

Ai Tingya felt grieved and happy at the same time. Even though Dean Du had done her best to create an atmosphere of family for the children in the orphanage, Ai Tingya had never experienced playing around with her parents like this.

Moreover, she was openly favored. In the past, Ai Tingya felt that it was extravagant just to think about it.

She was so touched that she wanted to cry, but she was too happy to cry.

When Luo Feng came in to look for her, he saw that she was staring blankly at the chicken soup pot. He hugged Ai Tingya from behind and said, "Is my mother's soup that pretty?"

Ai Tingya sniffed and said, "No, I just feel too happy and lucky."

Luo Feng guessed that Ai Tingya must have heard the conversation between him and his mother.

Luo Feng tightened his arms and hugged Ai Tingya even tighter.

Outside the kitchen, Father and Mother Luo sat quietly at the dining table.

Father Luo looked in the direction of the kitchen. "How long does it take for them to come out with one bowl of soup? I'll call them out for dinner."

"Aiya!" Mother Luo pressed Father Luo back into his seat and said softly, "Give them some space to be alone! Children of this age like to stick together!"

The two of them looked at the sumptuous food that was gradually turning cold on the table and then at the silent kitchen. They swallowed hard.

Mother Luo was very gratified. Her son was stable. Her efforts had not been in vain!

…

After dinner, the family watched television happily for a while.

Mother Luo originally wanted Ai Tingya to stay at home. There was everything at home and everything was convenient after all.

However, Ai Tingya insisted on returning to the orphanage. After the exam, she wanted to see her family in the orphanage. Mother Luo couldn't force her to stay, so she instructed Luo Feng to send Ai Tingya home.

Luo Feng didn't tell his mother that his bicycle had been taken away by the principal.

He could only borrow a bicycle from Lei Jin.

Luo Feng had traveled the path from home to the orphanage countless times.

Ai Tingya sat in the back seat and hugged Luo Feng's waist. "Why don't we buy another bicycle? Otherwise, it'll be inconvenient for you to travel."

Luo Feng said, "We should buy a car if anything. We would have to travel further in the future. Since the college entrance examination is over, let's go get our driver's licenses during the summer vacation."

He actually knew how to drive, but he did not have a license in the current world and could not go on the road.

Ai Tingya did not refute when she heard that he wanted to buy a car. She would definitely be worried about money again if it was in the past.

However, ever since the milk tea shop was built, not only did it resolve the economic crisis of the orphanage, it had also made a lot of money. This was the first time Ai Tingya calmly chatted with Luo Feng about buying things. 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝒏𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡．𝙣𝒆𝙩

"We can get the driver's license, but we might have to buy the car after we work." Ai Tingya calculated the profits of the milk tea shop.

...

They had the money to buy a car, but she wanted to use that money to run the milk tea shop better.

"One cent can't do two things," Ai Tingya sighed.

"Then why don't we just earn two cents worth of money?" Luo Feng said casually. Earning money wasn't hard at all to him currently.

As long as there was a legitimate reason, such as investing, he could get a lot of money.

Ai Tingya thought that Luo Feng was talking about expanding the milk tea shop and said happily, "So you have the idea of expanding the milk tea shop too. I was still thinking about what to tell you."

Previously, the two of them had put this matter on hold because of their studies.

Ai Tingya rubbed her palms together now that she could finally start over. She could not wait any longer.

Luo Feng choked. He didn't mean that. He just wanted Ai Tingya to idle around and work hard to help him spend money. Only then would he be able to earn more money!

Forget it!

It was a good thing that Ai Tingya was motivated. After all, the future female CEO needed to be trained in the early stages. In any case, expansion required a large sum of money.

Right now, there were only two things that could make Luo Feng happy. One was with Ai Tingya, and the other was spending money on her.

...

"Alright, go ahead if you want to do it. I support you!" Luo Feng confessed.

Ai Tingya's heart warmed. She pressed her face against Luo Feng's waist and whispered, "You're the best."

68 Prospects For The Future, Open A Company!

Luo Feng rode his bicycle back the way he came after sending Ai Tingya off.

Luo Feng went straight into his room after returning home. He laid on the bed and stared blankly at the ceiling, seriously thinking about expanding the milk tea shop.

Luo Feng got up, opened his notebook, and began to write a plan after lying down for a while.

Mother Luo quietly pushed open the door and saw Luo Feng writing something through the crack. She was so touched that she almost cried out. She covered her mouth and quietly closed the door again.

!

Father Luo, who was sitting on the sofa watching television, asked curiously, "Weren't you going to get your son to eat fruits? Where is he?"

Mama Luo raised her index finger to her mouth. "Shh! My son is studying. Don't disturb him!"

"The college entrance examination is over. Why would he still be studying?"

"I don't know. Anyway, it's always good to be studying. He's writing and drawing with a serious expression. I'm really touched. All of this is Tingya's credit!"

Mother Luo had always insisted that Ai Tingya's good habits had infected Luo Feng, so she liked Ai Tingya even more every time she saw Luo Feng improve a little. 𝐛𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝐦

"Xiao Feng is finally sensible. I don't have to worry so much anymore." Mother Luo patted her chest in relief.

…

The next morning, Luo Feng brought the proposal to the orphanage to look for Ai Tingya.

The children in the orphanage were very happy to see him. They kept calling him "Brother Luo Feng" and pounced on Luo Feng, wanting to play with him.

Luo Feng was already surrounded by the children when Ai Tingya came out of the house. It wasn't easy to pull him out of the group of children, so Ai Tingya brought Luo Feng to her room.

"I have something good to show you," Ai Tingya said mysteriously.

This little girl had a lot of ideas. Luo Feng sat by the bed expectantly, wondering if Ai Tingya had prepared another gift for him.

"Luo Feng, look!"

Ai Tingya carried the thick stack of A4 paper and placed it on Luo Feng's lap.

"This…" The fire in Luo Feng's heart was extinguished by the bold words "Good Me Milk Tea Shop Expansion Plan".

So the supposedly good thing were just a stack of cold proposals, and they were so thick!

Ai Tingya sat beside Luo Feng and said, "I did it all night last night and optimized the previous proposal. Give me some suggestions after you're done reading it."

Luo Feng placed his share in Ai Tingya's hands. "What a coincidence, I made one too."

"We're really telepathic." Ai Tingya pursed her lips and saw the sweetness of a love letter in the proposal.

Luo Feng read very quickly and finished reading the thick proposal in about 10 minutes.

This proposal was much more detailed than the one Ai Tingya had made previously. Even though there were still many problems, it was already very perfect for an 18-year-old student.

Luo Feng remembered that in his previous life, Ai Tingya only used a few years to go from an orphan girl to the CEO of a listed company. Her ability was definitely unparalleled.

He had seen the initial stages of her talents now.

"Well written!" Luo Feng gave her a thumbs up.

Ai Tingya patted him lightly and blushed. "We're talking about serious matters. Don't coax me."

Luo Feng said seriously, "I'm not coaxing you. You did a good job, but there are still some things that need improvement."

Ai Tingya immediately entered a learning state. She took out a pen and paper from under her pillow, ready to take notes at any time.

Luo Feng said, "The management of our milk tea shop is currently in a mess. Other than Lu Zhao, who's an official employee, the others are all children from the orphanage. They'll have to go to school sooner or later. It's best to change the staff system in the shop first for us to develop steadily."

"The management model will be: shop assistant, supervisor, and store manager, you only have the shop assistant and the store manager on your proposal. This is too much work, and the store manager can't handle it alone."

Ai Tingya nodded seriously and took down the main points.

"But the cost will increase if we set up two positions," Ai Tingya said.

If the shop assistant had a salary of 1,000 yuan, the supervisor would want at least 2,000 yuan, and the manager would want 3,000 yuan. Ai Tingya often helped out in the milk tea shop. She felt that there would be too many people if there were two in management, yet one person seemed to be too few.

After weighing the pros and cons, she only set one management level.

Of course, Luo Feng wouldn't be giving out a salary for the branch manager. He planned to attract others to join and earn franchise fees.

This was also the business model of the future milk tea shops.

In the future, milk tea brands would be like spring bamboo shoots after a rain. They would be especially popular! After a milk tea brand was established, it would be opened to franchises. The main source of income was the franchise fees.

Even though it was a little unscrupulous, there were indeed a few brands with good reputations and business.

The franchise partner was the store manager. Learning the formula from the head office depended on the store manager's ability. The head office would receive a lot of money and would be more guaranteed.

Luo Feng continued to explain, "Since we're going to do it, we have to do it well! We can't just look at Crown City. We have to radiate throughout the country! We have to make it the earliest milk tea brand in our country!"

Ai Tingya's blood boiled. "Then what should we do first?"

Luo Feng enunciated each word clearly, "Start! A! Company!"

If he wanted to open up the franchise, then the franchise would have to buy raw materials from the headquarters. Of course, Luo Feng could come in and buy cheap goods, then sell them to the franchise at a higher price to earn some money.

However, that bit of profit was too little in Luo Feng's opinion. He was too lazy to waste his energy.

"The first step is to register a company and take the Good Me brand under the company's name and start operating the brand. The second step is to acquire a food production factory and produce raw materials. After it's opened to the public, it can supply other shops." Luo Feng wrote down the general direction of the future on the paper.

Therefore, the management of the shop that Ai Tingya was conflicted about was not so important in comparison.

"Can we open a company?" Ai Tingya did not even dare to think about it.

The tens of thousands of yuan was all in her hands after the milk tea shop made a profit. Could this money open a company?

Luo Feng put his arm around Ai Tingya's shoulder and said, "Trust your boyfriend. If I say yes, it's a yes."

"Who's my boyfriend?" Ai Tingya nudged Luo Feng with her shoulder and said shyly, "The college entrance examination results aren't out yet. You'll only be if you are the top scorer!"

They had been together for so long, but she was still so shy.

...

Luo Feng felt that Ai Tingya's shy look was very cute, so he carried her and sat her on his lap.

"I don't need to wait for the results to know that you won't be able to escape." Luo Feng wrapped his arms around Ai Tingya's waist and let her lean on his shoulder.

However, Ai Tingya was like a dishonest cat, wanting to run out. "The door isn't closed. What if someone sees us? Let go of me quickly!"

"Can't I hug my wife? No!"

"Luo Feng, be good. It won't be good if the other children see this."

"How can there be a child? Any sensible child should be playing in the backyard now and won't disturb us."

Luo Feng took the opportunity to steal a kiss on Ai Tingya's face, and what greeted him was a cute punch from Ai Tingya.

Xiao Fei, who was at the door, heard the commotion inside and doubted herself. "Am I an insensible child?!"

69 Ai Tingya Expressed Her Heartache

On the third day of summer vacation, Luo Feng and Ai Tingya didn't stay idle. The two of them boarded the bus and headed to the city. 𝚋𝚎𝚍ｎ𝚘ｖ𝚎𝚕.𝚗𝚎𝚝

It took half an hour by bus from Crown City to Nanlin City.

The minibus could be stopped at any time because there were more people. They did not have to wait at the station to buy tickets as they could buy them on the bus.

When they got into the car, they realized that the seats were gone. The center aisle was filled with people, and the narrow carriage looked like a sardine can.

There was also a smell that was hard to describe in words. The gasoline and sweat mixed together. It didn't smell bad, but it smelled uncomfortable.

Ai Tingya did not look too good after getting into the car. He let her lean against him and silently confirmed his goal of buying a car.

When the food factory was settled, he would definitely buy a small car.

"Do you think the food factory owner will be willing to sell it to us if it's just the two of us?" Ai Tingya felt uncomfortable and wanted to find a topic to divert her attention.

"He will be willing even if he doesn't want to if it was me." His sixth senses told him.

Yesterday, the two of them had drawn up the first step of the expansion plan. Coincidentally, Dean Du came to look for Ai Tingya.

Dean Du had some connections in society, so Luo Feng asked her about the food factory. One summer vacation wouldn't be enough for them to find a new factory, buy new machines, and recruit employees if they opened their own factory.

Hence, Luo Feng hoped to find a ready-made one that could be quickly produced.

Coincidentally, Dean Du had a boss she knew who was thinking of giving up the factory because business was not good, so she contacted him.

Originally, Dean Du wanted to go with the two of them, worried that they would be deceived by the other party because they were young and inexperienced. However, Luo Feng said that he wanted a chance to train and would come back to discuss it with Dean Du before paying.

Only then did Dean Du feel relieved that the two of them went alone.

At this moment, the car stopped by the roadside and people got out one after another. Luo Feng looked at a seat and wrapped his arm around Ai Tingya's slender waist. He quickly took two steps and pressed her into the seat.

"Huh?" Ai Tingya felt that she had been moved over. She had already sat down before she could react.

"There's still a while before we get off. Let's rest for a while." Luo Feng stroked Ai Tingya's hair.

A young man beside him who wanted to snatch a seat stomped his feet in anger. He was the one who saw it first. It was occupied before he could move! He was even forced to eat dog food. What was so great about having a beautiful partner?!

After another ten minutes of bumpy ride, the car stopped by the road in the city center.

The two of them got out of the car. Ai Tingya's motion sickness improved a lot.

She rarely came to the city. The tall buildings in front of her made her feel small and helpless. However, Ai Tingya felt that her body contained infinite courage as long as she looked at Luo Feng beside her.

Luo Feng pulled her back just as she was about to ask passersby for the way to the food factory. "It's too tiring to ride in the car. I'll bring you somewhere to rest."

Ai Tingya thought it would be a park bench or a book stall.

until the two of them stopped in front of a dazzling hotel. Ai Tingya's brain froze.

Vienna Hotel was one of the few five-star hotels in Nanlin City. From Luo Feng's perspective as a future person, the golden yellow style in the hall was slightly old-fashioned.

However, in a society where living standards had not risen long ago, the golden color of the house gave off the impression of high-class richness. The most eye-catching thing on the entire street was the imposing Roman stone pillar at the entrance of the Vienna Hotel.

It made ordinary people shrink back.

"Why did you bring me here?" Ai Tingya flinched.

It was obvious that this place was very expensive at a glance. It had always been a forbidden area that she kept a respectful distance from.

Luo Feng held her hand and walked up the stairs. "I might stay in the city for a few days, so I booked a room here to rest."

Ai Tingya could not believe her ears. "How much… Did you spend?"

"1,300 yuan."

Ai Tingya clutched her chest, her heart aching so much that she was about to vomit blood. 1,000 yuan was enough to support the orphanage for half a month. What kind of room could be so expensive? It was simply a robbery!

"Cancel it!" Ai Tingya said firmly.

"I can't." Luo Feng knew about her reaction, so he booked a good bed room instead of an even more expensive suite. "I've already paid. It'll be a waste if you don't stay. Let's go."

Luo Feng pulled the unwilling Ai Tingya in, and a beautiful waiter immediately welcomed them.

A standard 90-degree bow. "Hello, do you have a reservation?"

"Luo Feng, 122…"

"Mr. Luo, this is your room card. Please follow me."

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya followed behind the waiter.

Ai Tingya could not help but glance at the back of the waiter. The waiter of the high-end hotel was well-dressed and spoke politely. Ai Tingya looked at herself again. Her childish student attire paled in comparison.

She was a little embarrassed, but she tried her best to hold her head high, as if the higher she held her head, the more at ease she seemed.

The surrounding glass decorations recorded Ai Tingya's clumsy performance. The waiter turned his head and smiled. "Miss, is your neck uncomfortable? Our hotel has a professional massage on the third floor. You can go up and try."

The waiter did not have any intention of making fun of her.

Ai Tingya immediately retracted her neck, and her entire face instantly turned red. Her fingers fumbled with the corners of her clothes in a panic, feeling that she had embarrassed herself again in front of Luo Feng.

She really wanted to find a hole to hide in it!

Ai Tingya was looking down sadly when a pair of hands reached over and held her hand.

"Tingya, it's okay." Luo Feng walked beside her, his other hand gently patting Ai Tingya's back, "It's okay, I'm here, by your side."

Luo Feng's heart ached when he saw her embarrassed expression. He made up his mind to bring her around more in the future. Confidence was accumulated bit by bit.

Ai Tingya's heart gradually calmed down with his comfort. She simply leaned on Luo Feng's shoulder.

The three of them walked into the elevator. The reflective elevator panel reflected the two of them snuggling up.

A good-looking couple was very compatible with the appearance of the male and female leads of idol dramas. The waiter was very professional and knew not to pry into the guests' privacy.

However, the two of them were too eye-catching. The waiter stole glances at them from time to time.

...

She led the two of them to the room. "This is your room. I wish you a pleasant stay."

"Thank you."

Ai Tingya finally relaxed after the waiter left. This was her first time staying in a hotel.

In the past, it was almost always a school or an orphanage. She might occasionally do some part-time work to supplement her expenses. She had only seen what the interior of the hotel looked like in television dramas.

Luo Feng opened the door and a fragrance wafted into his nose. The furniture and facilities in the room were very complete. The bed was spacious and soft, making him feel like he was lying in a cloud.

"Why is there only one bed?" Ai Tingya said embarrassedly.

"I'm worried that you'll be afraid if you stay alone" Luo Feng said confidently, "I'll go get another room if you're embarrassed."

"Forget it, forget it." Ai Tingya held her forehead. Her head hurt just thinking about the price.

Get another room? Her heart would ache so much that she would vomit blood!

70 Coincidentally, The Factory Is Not Running Well

Ai Tingya tried her best to convince herself to accept the reality of sharing a bed.

It doesn't matter. She and Luo Feng are in love with each other, and their parents have met. They were very satisfied. And Luo Feng is an upright person… He probably won't have any other thoughts… Probably.

She would sleep on the ground at most!

After standing for a few minutes, Ai Tingya finally convinced herself and walked around the room again.

Luo Feng lay on his side on the bed with his head propped up. He admired Ai Tingya's shy and cute expression as she tried her best to pretend to be calm. He waited for Ai Tingya to show an even more conflicted expression.

In his previous life, he had stayed in more than 800 hotels for business trips. The only thing that left a deep impression on him was the Vienna Hotel.

This was because their bathroom was too unique! While the hotels were still separating the walls with cumbersome bricks, the Vienna Hotel was already using glass walls.

While he could not see through the frosted texture he could see every move of the silhouette. Not only would it be graceful, it would also leave enough room for imagination. It was really very suitable for a young couple.

Ai Tingya circled the room curiously and discovered the strange scene in the bathroom. She rushed to the bed in disbelief. "What's going on in that room?"

Luo Feng revealed a puzzled expression: "I don't know either, maybe it's a specialty of theirs."

"Luo Feng!" Ai Tingya stomped her feet in embarrassment. She knew that Luo Feng did it on purpose.

The corners of Luo Feng's eyes drooped as he apologized, "Tingya, are you angry? Then let's go to another place."

If they were to change to another hotel, not only would they lose more than a thousand yuan, but they would also spend even more money. Luo Feng knew that Ai Tingya couldn't bear to part with it, nor could she bear to be angry with him. He was just so fearless.

Ai Tingya choked. She really didn't know what to do with Luo Feng.

The milk tea shop was operating smoothly. She had tens of thousands of yuan on her and could afford to stay in a room that cost more than a thousand yuan, but she felt that it was too wasteful. It was just used for sleeping. Why would she need so much money?

Ai Tingya was like a pufferfish. She deflated again after being angry for a while. She really couldn't flare up at Luo Feng. "Forget it, forget it. Get ready and let's go to the food factory."

Luo Feng smiled after getting his way. He stood up and put his arm around Ai Tingya's shoulder, letting her lie in his arms. "It's still early anyway. Let's sleep for a while."

Ai Tingya's ears were burning. She struggled for a while before gradually calming down.

"You are just bullying me," Ai Tingya said coquettishly.

Luo Feng kissed her hair: "Why would I bully you, I want to give you the best things in the world"

He hugged Ai Tingya and lay quietly. Ai Tingya's breathing gradually calmed down in his arms. After a while, she fell asleep. Luo Feng closed his eyes in satisfaction too.

…

The two of them took a short nap and woke up at lunchtime.

After washing up briefly, the two of them went downstairs for a meal. They shopped nearby until 1 p.m. and played in the vicinity until the factory was open to take a taxi there.

Luo Feng named a place and the driver was a little surprised. He turned around and looked at the two of them. "It's a little far over. Do the two of you have money? You can take the public bus to get there."

"Where can I take the bus?" Ai Tingya subconsciously said when she heard that it would be very expensive.

The driver was about to give them directions when Luo Feng stopped him. "It might take a few hours to take the bus. Master, we have money. Just send us to our destination."

When the bus arrived, the factory would probably be off work.

"Alright." The driver only felt relieved after getting a definite answer.

An hour later, the taxi arrived at the northwestern suburbs.

This was the periphery of Nanlin City. A large piece of wasteland was unattended. A cement road the width of a car was spread out like a hair ribbon on an overgrown empty space.

Not far away, the entrance of a factory was filled with people. One could vaguely see the signboard of the Good Luck food factory. It was the one that Dean Du had introduced.

At this moment, the door was blocked by people. In the middle, a fatty with a big belly was grabbed by the collar by a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man raised his fist and said fiercely, "Are you going to pay or not?"

The fatty was so frightened that he was sweating profusely. He raised his hands and surrendered. "Old Ma, let's talk things out! It's not that I don't want to give it to you, but the factory is incurring severe losses. We really don't have money!"

The workers around him who were asking for salaries were already tired of hearing his words. They rushed forward excitedly.

"What do you mean you don't have money! You changed to a new car the day before yesterday!"

"You've delayed our salary for half a year. My family is starving to death!"

"I didn't see you share the profits with us when business was good. Yet you deducted our wages when the business isn't going well! Return us our money!"

"You won't be able to leave today if you don't give us today!"

The Fatty, who was squeezed in the middle, was at a loss. His explanation was suppressed by the voices asking for their salaries. It was useless no matter what he said.

Luo Feng protected Ai Tingya and squeezed into the middle. Luo Feng said, "Everyone, calm down! Calm down!"

How could he make the agitated workers listen to him?

Luo Feng said helplessly, "I'm here to buy a factory."

The scene was instantly silent. Everyone widened their eyes and looked at the young man who suddenly appeared.

The Fatty lifted his clothes and wiped the sweat off his forehead. He said in disbelief, "You want to buy my factory?"

Luo Feng nodded, "Right, Dean Du introduced us."

The Fatty did not believe it at first and thought that it was a child's prank. However, when he heard Dean Du, he vaguely remembered that Dean Du said that two children had come over to talk on her behalf.

"Come with me." The fatty led the two of them in.

The workers behind were afraid that the fatty would run away, so they stopped the three of them. The leader, Old Ma, said, "When will you pay me?"

Fatty said, "Old Ma, don't cause trouble if someone comes to discuss business. I promise I'll give it to you as soon as I get the money!"

Everyone looked at the fatty, then at Luo Feng and Ai Tingya. It didn't seem reliable no matter how they looked at it. However, they couldn't find any other good solutions, so they had no choice but to make way.

Fatty heaved a sigh of relief. As he walked, he asked, "Who are you to Dean Du?"

"I'm Dean Du's child. He's my classmate," Ai Tingya said.

The children in the orphanage were all Dean Du's children. Fatty understood when she said that.

...

"My name is Pei You. You can call me Factory Manager Pei. Did Dean Du tell you my conditions?" The fatty asked.

The asking price of the Good Luck food factory was a little high. Moreover, Factory Manager Pei asked the buyer to supplement the worker's salary for half a year. It was another high expenditure. Therefore, Chang Fang had released the news of the intention to sell three months ago and no one who came to ask about it or had any follow-up. 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"She did." Luo Feng said, "To be honest, the price is a little high."

Ai Tingya smiled in relief hearing this. After being together for so long, Luo Feng finally learned to bargain normally and not raise the price. She could worry less.

Factory Manager Pei did not hesitate at all. "To be honest, I don't want to sell the factory either, but business is not easy. I still owe the raw materials factory money, so it has to have a higher asking price."

71 It Would Not Be Fair If We Do Not Compensate The Working People

The sale of Factory Manager Pei's factory was not only its factories and equipment, but also the land under his feet. It was just that the northwest suburbs were too desolate, and no one was interested in this land.

Coupled with the global financial crisis in the past two years, there were factory buildings everywhere. Everyone else was going for cheaper ones.

Luo Feng kept thinking about the northwestern suburbs. He felt that it was very familiar from the first time he heard this name but he couldn't remember where he heard it from.

Ai Tingya couldn't make up her mind, so she could only wait for Luo Feng to make the decision.

Seeing that the two of them did not speak, Factory Manager Pei said helplessly, "I know you think this land is worthless. I think so too. The roads at the entrance were built by the nearby residents with their own money. The government doesn't care at all."

His words reminded Luo Feng!

No wonder he felt that the northwestern suburbs were very familiar. It was because this was the center of Nanlin City's new city in his previous life and the most prosperous area in Nanlin City after that.

The reason why it was so desolate was because the government had yet to plan this place!

"I'm buying it!" Luo Feng immediately decided.

Ads by Pubfuture

Factory Manager Pei was so shocked that he could not speak. He organized his words slightly before saying, "Do you know how much I'm selling it for?"

"Tell me."

"…2.5 million yuan!" Factory Manager Pei said.

He was very uncertain facing these two students. In addition, Luo Feng said he wanted to buy them without asking for the price. This was too childish. Perhaps these two brats will find a random reason later to say they won't buy it after all.

Luo Feng thought about it and said, "2.5 million yuan, this doesn't sound too good."

"Here it comes." Factory Manager Pei sighed silently and thought without hope. "He's definitely not buying it then."

Unexpectedly, Luo Feng continued, "I'll add another 200,000yuan on the condition that you help us on a small favor!"

"Huh?"

Factory Manager Pei and Ai Tingya opened their mouths in shock.

Ai Tingya felt that she was wrong. Luo Feng was still the same Luo Feng. He was still so biased.

Factory Manager Pei was so happy that he couldn't find his bearings. He was also worried that Luo Feng would make fun of him. "You're not lying to me, right? What favor?"

Luo Feng said, "In the future, we'll be producing milk tea ingredients. The machines in the factory will definitely not work. I hope you can help us find two suitable machines. They don't have to be too good, as long as they can produce normally."

He remembered that the development in the northwest suburbs had begun when he was in his sophomore year. At that time, all the factories and households here had to move elsewhere, so he could just buy a second-hand machine.

"That's simple," Factory Manager Pei agreed immediately. He had been running a factory for so many years, so it was easy for him to take out two machines. "What else?"

"Also, help me find out about the sale of land. I want as much land as possible there is in the surrounding area." Luo Feng calculated. It would be a profitable business regardless of whether the government buys it or he builds up on it himself.

Factory Manager Pei didn't understand. Their northwestern suburbs were so inconvenient, and the land wasn't very fertile. There wasn't even a vegetable grower, so why would Luo Feng buy land?

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Luo Feng asked, "Do you agree?"

"That's easy. I'll get a friend to ask around for you."

It was not difficult to buy land. Factory Manager Pei felt that these two requests were really simple. He could earn an additional 200,000 yuan just by asking a few questions!

…

Business was going well inside but the workers outside were indeed gloomy.

The workers sat on the ground and waited for the news inside. A man with a crew cut asked Old Ma, "Do you think it will work this time? Previously, seven or eight people came to buy the factory, but Factory Manager Pei didn't manage to negotiate the sale."

Old Ma sighed. "I don't know. They look like students to me. Who knows if they're really here to buy a factory?"

The crew-cut man said helplessly, "Let's wait. We've been waiting for half a year. This little while won't make a difference."

There were more than 50 workers in the entire factory, but only a dozen of them were left. The remaining workers could not wait any more and had long gone out to work.

They had to support their families. Food, clothing, accommodation, and transportation all cost money. They could wait for two months, but half a year was too long. The remaining people here were either stubborn or had family matters to attend to. They could only guard here to the death.

Of course, Old Ma did not want to sit on this hard concrete floor and wait. He also wanted to go out and work. 𝚋𝚎ｄ𝚗ｏｖ𝚎𝚕．ｃｏ𝚖

The cost of milk powder for his one-year-old son at home was hundreds of yuan a month. His wife, who had just given birth, could not work, and his parents were old. He had to raise four mouths alone, and the pressure of the entire family's survival was on his shoulders.

The family had old, weak, women, and a child. Old Ma did not want to abandon them and go out to work if there was a job near home.

Thinking of this, Old Ma buried his face in his rough hands.

"No matter how much we get today, I'll immediately buy a ticket to the south. I heard that many factories there are hiring and their salaries are higher than Nanlin." The crew-cut man said looking at his dejected face.

Old Ma did not know how to answer.

There were fewer and fewer of them, and their strength was getting weaker. The chances of getting money were also getting lower and lower.

However, what could the others say? If possible, who would be willing to leave their hometown?

Old Ma was distraught. The scale in his heart placed his family on one side and the pressure of survival on the other. The surrounding sighs tilted to the pressure of survival.

He reached into his pocket, thinking of smoking a cigarette to ease his mood. Unexpectedly, he only felt the hole in his pocket.

Old Ma laughed self-deprecatingly. In this situation, he could not even afford a pack of cigarettes that cost five yuan.

…

When the three people who were discussing business came out of the factory, the workers immediately got up from the ground. Hope and despair were written all over their faces.

Factory Manager Pei hid behind Luo Feng. He was no longer the person in charge.

Everyone's gaze gathered on Luo Feng's face: "How was the negotiation? When can you pay up?"

Luo Feng said, "I think this factory is not bad, I've already decided to buy it."

"I've also agreed to Director Pei's request. I'll settle your arrears today, but I feel that it's a little inappropriate."

The sudden turn of events made the workers droop their heads, feeling very uneasy. They would not insist on half a year's salary. They were already very satisfied as long as they had three months!

They only begged not to delay any longer!

...

Luo Feng said slowly, "Since he owed you guys for so long, I have to give you at least another half a year's salary as compensation!"

Everyone looked up in surprise, suspecting that they were hallucinating.

"There are also workers who have left the factory. Please inform them that they will also have similar compensation. Remember to come and register."

"Not only that, the food factory will return to normal after that. I don't mind increasing your salary by another 20% if you're willing to stay and you perform well. The treatment will be the same for workers who left and are willing to come back."

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Old Ma stammered, "Bro… Boss, is what you said true?"

Luo Feng nodded and smiled, "Of course it's true. You can start registering your name immediately and get your arrears settled before you sign the new contract."

72 Good Boss, Is It Too Late To Jump Ship Now?

Luo Feng felt that it was only right for him to pay the workers since he accepted the food factory. Moreover, they were all experienced old employees. If they could stay, they would help the factory get on the right track.

The cheat restricted him from spending meaningless money. It should not be meaningless to compensate the workers.

All of this had to be accounted for in the factory investment!

When Factory Manager Pei saw this, he chuckled and moved closer to Luo Feng. "Boss Luo, do you think I can still help?"

!

"Factory Manager Pei, lucky you are still here. Help me calculate the arrears in salary first. We'll calculate the money together later." Luo Feng was very generous.

His words were like a calming pill that stabilized the workers' uneasy hearts. Some workers could not help but feel excited. They covered their mouths but could not hide their sobs.

Even a tough man like Old Ma, could not help but feel a lump in his throat.

"Don't stand here. Let's go in first." Factory Manager Pei called out to everyone.

The workers were calculating their salaries in the conference room. Luo Feng and Ai Tingya sat in the office and sipped tea.

Luo Feng contacted his lawyer to sign the contract.

He put down his phone and met Ai Tingya's scrutinizing gaze. Luo Feng sighed secretly and thought to himself, "Ai Tingya is like this every time I spend money. When will this silly girl help me squander money?"

"I know what you want to say. Tell me." Luo Feng leaned back on the sofa and waited for Ai Tingya to lecture him.

Ai Tingya retracted her gaze and took a sip of tea. "This tea tastes good."

This was not the first time she had met Luo Feng. In any case, he always had his reasons for doing things. Ai Tingya did not want to keep nagging, and he had done a good deed this time.

Ai Tingya also rose from the bottom. How could she not know the difficulties of living at the bottom thinking of the weathered faces and rough hands of the workers? She felt sad just thinking about how the workers were asking for their salaries.

In any case, it was not like they could not earn that money back. She would just work harder in the future.

Luo Feng was too surprised to see Ai Tingya leisurely sipping tea. Where did the sun come from today? She did not even chide him.

Luo Feng was happy. He had finally taken the first step in spending money with Ai Tingya!

An hour or so later, a slightly plump lawyer wearing black-rimmed glasses and carrying a heavy briefcase stood at the door.

"Hello, is this Mr. Luo?" The lawyer handed over his business card.

Luo Feng took the business card and stuffed it into his pocket without even looking at it. "Lawyer Deng, I've heard a lot about you. I've been waiting for you. Take a seat."

Lawyer Deng's face turned even redder. He had just become a full-time lawyer, so how could he stand the flattery of "I've heard a lot about you"? "You're too kind. Just call me Xiao Deng."

In his previous life, Luo Feng had interacted with Lawyer Deng. At that time, he was already lying on the hospital bed, and Xing Miaomiao took his money and ran away. Lei Jin couldn't stand it anymore, so he spent a lot of money to hire Lawyer Deng from Junyou Law Firm.

This Lawyer Deng was famous in Nanlin City for his sharp thinking and words. He could often find legal reasons to defend his defendants in the details. Back then, he had rendered Xing Miaomiao's lawyer speechless.

However, Luo Feng really didn't have the strength to tangle with Xing Miaomiao in the end, so this matter was left unsettled.

Lawyer Deng was still young. He was slightly inexperienced, but he was still professional. More importantly, Lawyer Deng's value would rise a few years later. This price would not be enough for him to travel out so far like he did today in the future.

Luo Feng wasn't afraid of spending money, but he also liked to take advantage of others. It would be a waste not to take advantage of others.

After calculating the salary, Factory Manager Pei returned with the contract and handed it to Lawyer Deng.

The two of them exchanged views on the details in the contract. Lawyer Deng read it very seriously and did not miss any details. He was very professional and reliable. Luo Feng directly threw it to him and he did not have to care about anything.

"There are some small details that need to be modified. There's no problem with the others, but this price…" Lawyer Deng felt a little strange after reading the contract. The price of buying the factory had exceeded his expectations, and the compensation to the workers was to a level he had never seen before.

Lawyer Deng specially pulled Luo Feng outside in order to prevent his employer from being fooled.

"Do you know the details of the price?" Lawyer Deng asked sincerely.

Luo Feng nodded: "The factory costs 2,700,000 yuan, and with the workers' salary compensation, it's about 500,000 yuan. It should be able to be settled within 3,300,000 yuan."

"Isn't your price a little too high?"

"I offered it, is there a problem with my price?"

"…No problem." Lawyer Deng had nothing to say. The employer's words were like heaven and earth, an imperial edict. If the employer felt that there was no problem, there was no problem.

After signing the contract, the phone in Luo Feng's pocket vibrated.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully purchasing the factory and obtaining a profit of 9.6 million!]

300% return. He was only one step away from becoming a multimillionaire!

Luo Feng was overjoyed. The corners of his eyes and brows were filled with smiles. Factory Manager Pei was grinning from ear to ear. The debt problem was finally resolved. Lawyer Deng was in a good mood. This was the simplest contract he had done, and the commission was not low.

All three of them felt that they had taken advantage of the situation. The office was filled with joy.

…

Outside the office, the workers leaned against the door and observed the situation through the crack.

"They've signed the contract!" The crew-cut man couldn't suppress his joy even if he lowered his voice.

"Our salary will finally be paid!"

"That's great! There's no need to venture outside."

"It's like a dream to meet such a generous boss!"

Old Ma felt a lump in his throat. He wiped his hot eyes and said, "Boss is straightforward, so are we. Let's go and work together. Let's strive to start work early."

"But work has been suspended for months. We don't even know what product the boss wants."

Old Ma was hot-blooded and had to do something. He picked up a rag and said, "Clean it up, at the very least? The boss said that we can start work immediately."

Time was money and life. The group of people hurriedly ran towards the production area.

The people in the office heard the commotion outside and stuck their heads out to see the workers holding brooms and buckets. They understood that they were going to clean up.

Factory Manager Pei said enviously, "Boss Luo, I've opened a factory for so many years, but this is the first time I've seen the workers so proactive in their work. Are they being given their salary today?"

Luo Feng waved his hand: "Sure! Why not! I definitely won't allow my subordinates to work for free!"

...

When Lawyer Deng, who was behind him, heard this, he was so moved that tears streamed down his face. This was the first time he had seen such a conscientious boss. He wondered if he could jump ship to the factory thinking about his superior, that m*therf*cker Zhou.

Factory Manager Pei was happy. He found a rag from somewhere. "Then it shouldn't be a problem for me to be a temporary worker, right? I'll help clean up too." 𝚋𝚎ｄｎｏｖ𝚎𝚕．𝚌ｏｍ

"Are you short of money?" Luo Feng didn't understand.

Factory Manager Pei scratched his head in embarrassment. "I've been a little tight on money recently. I'll earn as much as I can."

Luo Feng laughed, "Put the cleaning aside, help me contact the production machine first."

73 If You Want To Spend, Spend On Higher Quality Goods!

After settling the food factory, Luo Feng couldn't wait to pull Ai Tingya onto the streets.

There were many more places to shop in the city than in Crown City. Luo Feng set a small goal. He was still a few hundred thousand yuan away from earning 10 million yuan, so he relied on Ai Tingya to spend more money.

He first brought Ai Tingya to the mall to buy clothes and chose a few unbelievably expensive clothes for Ai Tingya to try on. When the shop assistants saw the two of them, they swarmed over and introduced them enthusiastically.

"Miss, your figure is so good. You're simply a walking clothes rack. You'll definitely look good in this dress!"

!

"Young man, you have good taste. These two clothes are the treasures of our shop!"

"It's designed by a great teacher with first-rate tailoring skills. This fabric feels extraordinary to the touch, right? The clothes you're wearing are also very tasteful. One look and I can tell that you're fashion experts!"

The salespeople praised him profusely.

Luo Feng laughed secretly in his heart.

They were not fashion experts. The clothes on Ai Tingya's body were seasonal goods that she had bought herself. She had bought them last year and wore them this year. They were 20 yuan each.

However, he could not stop Ai Tingya from being good-looking. She could be fashionable even in a potato bag.

"Go try these on." Luo Feng smiled and handed the clothes to Ai Tingya.

Ai Tingya looked at it in disdain. In her opinion, the clothes that Luo Feng would choose in the future were too fashionable. Ai Tingya could not think of any fabric that could be sold for more than 1,000 yuan when she looked at the price again! Were there gold threads wrapped in it?

"There's no hurry. Let's take a look first." Ai Tingya used a useful bargaining technique and looked picky as she returned the clothes to the salesperson.

She pulled Luo Feng out of the clothing store as if they were escaping.

"What are you doing?" Luo Feng let go of Ai Tingya's hand, "Your clothes don't look good?"

Ai Tingya said sternly, "It's not about whether it's good-looking or not. Look at the price. It's even more expensive than the room you booked. Why don't they rob us!"

Luo Feng thought to himself, I'm just picking the expensive ones.

"You can't do this anymore!" Ai Tingya said with her hands on her hips. "We still have a lot of money to spend after we open the factory. Don't spend it on such boring things!"

"How can this be boring?" Luo Feng put his arm around Ai Tingya's shoulder. "You'll be the lady boss in the future, so you have to wear better clothes. Otherwise, others will think that our factory is going to close down. Moreover, it's just a piece of clothing. It won't be much compared to the factory's expenses."

Luo Feng was really trying his best to persuade Ai Tingya to spend money, hoping that she would be enlightened one day.

"No, no matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat," Ai Tingya insisted.

"Don't worry about money. It'll make me look useless," Luo Feng said as he led Ai Tingya around the shopping street.

He bought a pile of food for Ai Tingya under his sweet words.

However, such a small fight was still a long way from his 10 million yuan!

He had to do something real!

Luo Feng stopped in front of a shop. The inside was shining with golden light, and it was truly exuding treasure vibes.

Ai Tingya looked at the gold shop in front of her and said, "Don't tell me you want to go in and take a look."

Luo Feng chuckled. "You know me best."

Before Ai Tingya could object, Luo Feng stopped her from entering the gold shop. The two of them had just leaned against a counter when a service lady immediately welcomed them.

"Do you want to look at jewelry? Rings or necklaces?" 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙤𝙧𝒈

Luo Feng wanted to give Ai Tingya something of status. "Let's look at the ring first."

The service lady had just led the two of them to the ring counter when another service lady brought over a small basin of water and some skincare products. She took Ai Tingya's hand and soaked it in the water. "I'll give you hand care. Take your time to browse."

Luo Feng knew that this was a service routine that worked in gold shops. During the period of hand care for a woman, there was enough time to promote items to her. After doing it, her hands would be smoother and she would look better with a ring.

First, she washed it simply, then applied the frosting cream and massaged it slowly. Finally, she put on a layer of hand membrane, put on disposable gloves, and applied it slowly. Then, she changed her other hand.

Ai Tingya was not used to being served and looked at Luo Feng in embarrassment.

Luo Feng raised his chin to point out to her that there was also a couple picking out rings. Girls enjoy hand care.

She picked up a bow-shaped ring and said, "This is really beautiful. I like it so much. Let's buy this!"

Her boyfriend also felt that the ring was very beautiful, revealing a satisfied smile on his face. His gentle face instantly became stern again when he saw the price.

Luo Feng secretly glanced over and realized that the bow-shaped gold ring cost 20,000 yuan! No wonder his boyfriend's expression wasn't good.

"I just want this. Buy it! You're the best. Buy it!" The girlfriend said coquettishly, pulling her boyfriend's sleeve and swinging it around.

The boyfriend was in a difficult position. His girlfriend would be unhappy if he didn't buy it, but he would be unhappy if he bought it. Hence, he thought of a compromise. He pointed at another cheaper ring and said, "Take this out and let me take a look."

Seeing this, the girlfriend pouted and reluctantly tried it on.

"It's not nice!" His girlfriend said in disdain.

"Then let's look at the others," her boyfriend coaxed, quietly asking the waitress to put the ring back.

Luo Feng shook his head enviously. When would Ai Tingya be like this, asking him for precious things?

He nudged Ai Tingya's arm and said, "Look at her. The things she chose are so beautiful."

The service lady seemed to have good hearing and immediately grasped the keyword. She smiled and said, "May I ask if you have a budget so that I can recommend it to you?"

Luo Feng smiled, "I don't have a budget. I'll buy anything as long as she likes it and wants it!"

It was as if a thunderclap had exploded on the ground. Everyone in the gold shop looked at Luo Feng. The shock was indescribable, as if they were looking at the richest man in disguise.

The waitress was overjoyed. She had never seen a woman who could reject gold jewelry. The young lady in front of her was not old either. Her calm expression was probably because she had not seen enough.

She took out a few boxes like she was carrying bricks. When she opened them, they were so golden that they almost blinded her.

"The young lady is young and is very suited with these little flower pendants. It's small and exquisite. See if you like it."

"This bracelet suits you very well. Look at how fair your skin is. It's the most popular pattern this year. Look at how delicate these patterns are!"

"You don't have any ear holes? It's alright, this ear clip is definitely suitable for you. It's very stable and will definitely not fall off!"

...

The service lady enthusiastically promoted gold jewelry to Ai Tingya. All kinds of beautiful and exquisite gold jewelry were placed in front of her, making Ai Tingya's face glow.

Ai Tingya was not good at rejecting people, but she felt that the price was really a sin. It was really higher than she had imagined! She emptied her stomach and thought about rejecting people.

"I don't like these very much…" Ai Tingya mustered her courage and said. In the face of a passionate sister's disappointed face, she added, "I want to see the couple ring. May I?"

74 What Should I Do If My Girlfriend Doesn't Spend Money? Please Teach Me.

Since he had walked into this shop today, he would not leave without buying something.

Ai Tingya knew Luo Feng's temper too well and decided to buy a cheaper… Ah no, a memorable couple ring.

"Oh, I understand what you're thinking." The service lady smiled. "The two of you are a perfect match. You should have a pair of good-looking rings to match you."

Ai Tingya pursed her lips in embarrassment, but she was very happy.

!

Luo Feng was dissatisfied: "If you want a ring, let's just buy a diamond, one for eternity."

The service lady smiled and said, "Are the two of you getting married? Why don't you take a look at the Three Gold set1.?"

Luo Feng shook his head regretfully: "It's a pity I'm not of legal age yet, otherwise I will propose on the spot."

"Stop talking." Ai Tingya's face was burning. "I'll just buy a matching couple ring. As for marriage, we still have to study so we won't consider it for the time being."

Ads by Pubfuture

The service lady revealed a very regretful expression. She wished she could get the two of them to bring the Three Gold set, turn left when they leave the shop and immediately get a marriage certificate.

She took out three boxes that were filled with matching rings and arranged them one by one for Ai Tingya to choose slowly.

However, Ai Tingya wanted to buy the cheapest one. She did not want to face the price on it.

Why are they all so expensive!

At the other counter, the other lady's boyfriend, who was also in a terrible fix, held his forehead and sighed like Ai Tingya. "Why are they all so expensive!"

His girlfriend saw that his expression was not good and pouted unhappily. "Look at that side. That boyfriend let his girlfriend choose. You don't agree with anything I choose. I won't come out with you again!"

Her boyfriend felt bitter. What sin had he committed to come out to shop and meet a weirdo who only wanted to spend money?

At this moment, he felt someone walk to his side. He turned around and realized that it was the weirdo he was talking about.

It was that handsome man stared at his girlfriend enviously. Any man would be alarmed. The boyfriend blocked Luo Feng's line of sight and said in an unfriendly tone, "What are you doing?"

Luo Feng realized that his gaze might have offended him, so he smiled and said, "Brother, don't be nervous. I'm just here to ask you for guidance."

"Guidance for what?"

Luo Feng glanced at Ai Tingya, who was choosing a ring, and whispered, "How can I teach my girlfriend to spend money? My girlfriend saves too much money for me. I can't even buy her something more expensive."

?

If it weren't for the sincerity in Luo Feng's eyes, this boyfriend would have thought that he was here to show off.

Wasn't it good to save money? Did she have to use up your entire monthly salary every time she shopped? What kind of thought process was this?!

"Brother, you're so humorous. Aren't you happy that your girlfriend helped you save money? Why don't you get these gold trinkets that are sold by weight? You get what you pay for and there's still resale value. Your girlfriend will definitely agree readily." The boyfriend forced a smile and replied.

Luo Feng looked at the ring that weighed grams. The workmanship was very rough, and the surface was not even as smooth as a key ring.

The boyfriend continued to grumble softly, "I think gold jewelry is too much. The good-looking ones aren't made of gold. The handicraft fee is also very high. It's better to weigh them."

Luo Feng said worriedly, "It doesn't matter if the fee is higher, I'm just afraid that she won't like it…"

The boyfriend was speechless. He felt that this gold shop was very dangerous. He would probably lose his wallet if he stayed any longer!

He immediately turned around and slapped the card on the counter. "Wrap up the ring just now. Swipe my card!"

Ads by Pubfuture

The girlfriend jumped up happily and hugged her boyfriend's neck to kiss him again and again. "Thank you, my dear. You're so good to me! I like you the most!"

Her boyfriend's heart was bleeding. A ring had cost him a couple of months' salary!

After he took the ring, he smiled politely at Luo Feng and pulled his girlfriend away from the gold shop.

Luo Feng shook his head helplessly and walked back to Ai Tingya's side to see what she had chosen.

The service lady said, "Yes, this one has a free gift. It's a beauty apparatus that massages the face. This one will give you a set of bowls. You can't change the free gift. I'm really sorry."

Ai Tingya chose two rings with similar prices.

She liked one of the rings more, while she liked the free gift for the other ring. She was conflicted about which one to buy.

The service lady suggested, "Ask your boyfriend. He should know your preferences the best."

"No, no, no!" Ai Tingya shook her head like a rattle drum. "I'll decide. I don't have to ask for his opinion."

Luo Feng would definitely tell her to buy both without even looking at them, then swipe his card and leave if that were to happen.

"This one!" Ai Tingya finally chose the ring that gave her the bowls. While the beauty apparatus was more valuable, she had not much use for it. It was not as practical as bowls.

When Luo Feng was paying, he realized that Ai Tingya had chosen one which was the cheapest and also the lowest grade. Moreover, it was sand gold, which was not as valuable as pure gold.

He was willing to spend money, but he did not want to spend it for nothing.

"My silly wife." Luo Feng helplessly pulled her back to the counter, "Don't just look at the price, choose another pair!"

"I like this pair. Why do I have to choose again?" Ai Tingya said in surprise.

Luo Feng didn't listen to her and said to the waitress, "Please hide the price tag. We want to choose again."

The waitress couldn't stop smiling. Immediately, three people surrounded her and flipped the price tag over. Ai Tingya couldn't dissuade Luo Feng, so she could only choose again.

After paying the bill, the two of them left the gold shop under the respectful escort of the service lady.

Luo Feng was still very dissatisfied. He had only spent 10,000 yuan, so the return wasn't much. He was still far from his small goal!

Ai Tingya noticed that his expression was not good and thought that she had embarrassed herself again. "Luo Feng, what's wrong?"

Luo Feng smiled and took her hand, saying lovingly: "I'm worried you'll be cheated, you're going to be the boss lady of the company soon, you really have to have some accessories that you can wear."

The two of them walked unhurriedly towards the hotel. Luo Feng also took Ai Ting all kinds of tricks from the gold shops. 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝙣𝒐𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎

"The gold rings I asked you to pick have resale value. In comparison, sand gold can only be used as an ornament. Understood?" Luo Feng concluded.

Ai Tingya silently memorized these knowledge points and exclaimed, "How do you know so much?"

"There's more you don't know about me. Come back to the hotel with me and let me teach you slowly?" Luo Feng smiled until his teeth couldn't be seen.

...

"F*ck you!" Ai Tingya shyly turned to the side.

Luo Feng pulled her over and said, "Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore. Let's discuss the company."

He was prepared to put the food factory and milk tea shop under the same company to pave the way for future milk tea brands. It would also be a big marketing highlight if they produced and sold their own milk tea.

The two of them could completely register a company during the summer vacation and expand the size of the milk tea shop.

The first step to establishing a business empire!

75 Boss, Please Let Me Follow You Forever!

According to the company's shareholdings, the orphanage, or rather, Ai Tingya, had 30% of the shares, and Luo Feng had 70%. Luo Feng followed this shareholdings even though he let Ai Tingya keep all the money.

The two of them finally decided to name the company "Ting Feng".

After dealing with the factory, Luo Feng decided to open his first branch in the city.

The two of them ate and drank until they tried all the specialty snacks in Nanlin City. Luo Feng said that he was going to inspect the venue, and he found a good shop in the snack street.

!

The rent in Nanlin City was more than two times higher than in Crown City. Luo Feng signed a five-year lease without thinking when he heard that he could spend a lot of money in one go.

He tried his best to spend money on Ai Tingya, but Ai Tingya was too thrifty. The money she spent was nothing. It was still a long way from his small goal of gathering 10 million yuan.

100,000 yuan in rent got him 300,000 yuan in cashback. He found the best renovation company in the city and paid 200,000 yuan in advance for the renovation fee so he got 600,000 yuan in cashback. With this, Luo Feng finally gathered 10 million yuan!

10 million yuan was an unimaginable number in this era where the salary was about 2,000 to 3,000 yuan per capita.

The two of them stayed in the Vienna Hotel for half a month. In the end, there was only one last question left. Who would take care of it?

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya were going to university, so there was no one to take care of the Nanlin factory and Crown City's milk tea shop. Dean Du usually had to worry about the matters of the orphanage and couldn't help out. Even though Xiao Fei was smart, she was still young. She could help look after the shop, but she still needed to be trained in management.

In the end, only one person was left— Lu Zhao.

Luo Feng called her to the Vienna Hotel and said that he had an instruction for her.

Lu Zhao was also the manager of the milk tea shop before she jumped ship to Good Me Milk Tea Shop. She stayed in the shop all day and rarely came to the city.

Suddenly, the rich boss waved his hand and gave her a sum of money to transfer to the city immediately. Lu Zhao felt like a commoner entering the palace standing in front of the dazzling hotel.

"Hello, do you have a reservation?" The receptionist revealed a standard smile.

"I'm looking for Luo Feng." Lu Zhao replied.

The receptionist looked at the memo. "Mr. Luo Feng has left his instructions. Please follow me."

Luo Feng stayed in the Vienna Hotel for half a month and had already made arrangements.

"This is Mr. Luo Feng's room." The receptionist led Lu Zhao to the place and smiled before leaving.

Lu Zhao took a deep breath and knocked on the door. "Mr. Luo, I'm Lu Zhao."

The door opened and Luo Feng stood behind it. Lu Zhao's eyes widened and he was stunned! Was this confident young man in a suit still the same student boss?

Luo Feng, who had taken off his school uniform, still had the youthfulness of an 18-year-old, but his eyes were like silent ancient wells with an unfathomable mystery.

"Hello… M-Mr. Luo!" Lu Zhao said cautiously.

Luo Feng was surprised. "We haven't seen each other for only half a month. Why are you so distant?"

Previously, Lu Zhao either called him boss or Luo Feng directly because she was a few years older than Luo Feng when everyone was working in the shop together. Sometimes, she would even impart some of her experience to Luo Feng and also ask him about their relationship.

She had never realized that her student boss was really handsome and rich. He even lived in a dazzling hotel. He was not on the same level as her!

It made her subconsciously nervous.

Lu Zhao's body tensed up as he followed Luo Feng into the room.

"Big Sister Lu Zhao." Ai Tingya came forward and pulled her to sit down.

Ai Tingya's temperament had not changed much. She was still as good as ever, but her clothes were more fashionable. She had changed from a good-looking girl to a fashionable urban beauty. In the past half a month, the two of them had changed from the inside out!

"How's the shop?" Luo Feng asked casually. He had to find a topic to talk about.

Unexpectedly, Lu Zhao stood at attention and reported energetically, "Very good! After the summer vacation, students from other schools are also coming to the milk tea shop to buy milk tea. Business has always been good and stable!"

"Pfft." Luo Feng couldn't help but laugh, "You don't have to be so reserved. I asked you to make a trip today mainly because I have a new mission for you"

"Pray tell me!"

Luo Feng said, "We're preparing to open a branch on New Summer Street and need your help."

New Summer Street was a famous snack street in Nanlin City. It was a tourist area built by the government. Lu Zhao knew that the business must be better than Crown City's milk tea shop if Luo Feng could open a shop in a prime location. 𝗯𝗲𝐝𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝗹．𝐨𝗿𝗴

Lu Zhao was in a difficult position. If she went to the city to work, she would be far away from home. Moreover, the pressure in the big city was high. She felt that it was good to stay in Crown City.

"Mr. Luo… It might be a little… Inconvenient."

"Just call me Luo Feng. Think about rejecting me after hearing the remuneration package."

Lu Zhao knew that Luo Feng was very generous based on her past experience. The remuneration package he emphasized would definitely be very tempting. Lu Zhao couldn't help but feel a little curious and sit up straight to listen.

Luo Feng said, "I'll change the system of the old store after opening the branch. In the past, I gave the store manager a fixed salary. As for the Nanlin store, we've decided to implement the store manager's share system. We'll implement the share reward system as long as the store manager's performance reaches the standard."

Lu Zhao's eyes lit up. "Reward!"

Originally, Luo Feng's salary of 5,000 yuan was already above the average salary. Her salary might not be as high as that even if she worked hard in a big city. Moreover, Luo Feng directly split the money with her last time.

There was actually an additional reward now!

"According to the turnover, you can get as much as 10%!" Luo Feng added.

Lu Zhao's little head started spinning. Take Crown City's milk tea shop as an example. Its monthly net profit could be stable at about 20,000 yuan. If it was a dividend, 10% could be divided into 2,000 yuan.

This was a conservative estimate. Nanlin City's consumption was higher and there were more young people after all. It was not impossible to make a net profit of 30,000 to 40,000 yuan!

Ads by Pubfuture

Lu Zhao's fixed salary of 5,000 yuan a month, coupled with a dividend of 3,000 to 4,000 yuan, was considered a high salary even in a first-tier city in this era! Not to mention the share of equity shares and assets!

She was instantly tempted. Far away from home? Inconvenience? They are all stumbling blocks that could be kicked away!

Kick them away! Kick them all away!

Luo Feng saw her expression and knew that she had more than half agreed, so he continued to push her: "We have a food factory now that specializes in making the raw ingredients for the milk tea. The food factory and milk tea shop are both under the company's name."

"Food factory? Milk tea shop?" Lu Zhao's eyes widened. "Are we so high-end?"

Luo Feng nodded: "We conduct training regularly and launch a year-end reward system to reward outstanding managers when we have the scale."

Having a company and not having a company were two completely different concepts. Lu Zhao felt dizzy, as if she had been hit by a big gift.

...

She had decided that she would follow Boss Luo Feng's lead and not abandon him even in death!

"I'm willing, Boss!" Lu Zhao shouted excitedly. "Don't worry, I'll definitely run the shop well! I'll love the company as much as I love my family!"

76 The Results Are Out, Let The Top Scorer's Mother Speak

"Don't worry, Boss. From now on, the company is my home. I'll go back and write a thousand-word business plan immediately. Don't worry!" Lu Zhao patted her chest and promised.

She could no longer suppress her passion for fighting for the company and wanted to show it off immediately.

"Very good, very energetic." Luo Feng felt that they were almost done chatting.

Lu Zhao was very good at reading people's expressions. She raised her eyebrows at Ai Tingya. "Boss, Madam, just enjoy your alone time. I'll definitely settle the matters in the shop."

!

Ai Tingya sent her out.

Before leaving, Lu Zhao noticed the glass wall of the bathroom. This was the first time she had seen such… such an open-minded concept. She could not help but blush, revealing a few white teeth as she stared at Ai Tingya.

Her gaze seemed to be saying, "You young people are having a lot of fun eh!"

Ai Tingya noticed her gaze and waved her hand as she explained, "Sister Lu Zhao, no, it's not what you think. We…"

"There's no need to explain." Lu Zhao revealed a meaningful smile. "I've been through this before. I understand."

Ai Tingya was speechless. She suddenly felt that her words were too weak. Lu Zhao would think that it was an excuse and maintain her smile no matter what she said.

Ai Tingya walked back to her room unhappily after sending Lu Zhao downstairs.

Then, she sat down on the bed. "It's all your fault that Sister Lu Zhao misunderstood us."

Luo Feng didn't understand, "Misunderstand what? What misunderstanding can there be between us?"

Ai Tingya was furious. She grabbed a pillow and threw it at him. "It's all your fault. Why did you have to book such a big bed room? And your bathroom… Seriously!"

She was too embarrassed to speak.

Luo Feng walked over and hugged Ai Tingya, apologizing softly.

Actually, the two of them had lived together for half a month. They have done everything other than the homerun. It was just that Ai Tingya had a psychological burden and felt that they could only go all the way after getting the marriage certificate. 𝚋ｅｄｎ𝚘𝚟ｅｌ.ｃｏ𝚖

However, the two of them were not at the legal age yet. Luo Feng hugged the fragrant and soft Ai Tingya every day and could only taste the sweetness of rubbing the edges. That beautiful bathroom was not of any use.

Not only did it not work, but it also became a burden. Ai Tingya would ask Luo Feng to sit by the bed and look at the scenery outside instead every time she took a shower. Luo Feng just sat there foolishly. He could only imagine what Ai Tingya looked like inside when he heard the sound of water splashing behind him.

Luo Feng hated it and would rather have not created this situation.

"Alright, don't be angry, I'll bring you to eat good food, alright?" Luo Feng threw out the candy.

"Hmph!" It would have been better if he hadn't said anything. Ai Tingya became even angrier when he mentioned about spending money. "From tonight onwards, we'll be sleeping separately!"

"I don't want to."

"Then go sleep in the bathtub!"

"Tingya, I was wrong!"

Luo Feng felt bitter. He was completely controlled by Ai Tingya.

…

Soon, it was the day the college entrance examination results were announced.

Ai Tingya's phone could not go online, so she went to the front desk to borrow the hotel's smartphone. Only then did the receptionist know that the young lady who had lived in the hotel for half a month was actually a college entrance examination student!

They surrounded Ai Tingya and fought to see the results she had found.

Ai Tingya nervously adjusted her breathing and looked down. "748 points!"

Only two points were deduced for the Chinese language.

When the young lady standing behind saw this result, her eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Her mouth was so wide that an egg could be stuffed into it.

"Oh my god, young lady, you're too awesome!"

"You must be the top scorer this year!"

"Quick! Please give me an autograph. I want to take it back and frame it!"

The ladies were even more excited than Ai Tingya herself.

Ai Tingya scratched her head and said embarrassedly, "This isn't my result. It's my boyfriend's."

The young ladies were equally shocked.

"The handsome boy who lives with you. Wow! I'm so envious of you!"

"I can tell at a glance that your boyfriend is a highly intelligent person and is so rich."

"Hurry up and check your own," the young lady urged.

At this moment, Luo Feng ran out of the elevator and raised his phone happily. "Tingya, you scored 726! Did you see that?"

"You scored 748!"

Luo Feng carried Ai Tingya and happily spun around twice. It turned out that both of them checked each other's results first. Ai Tingya tightly wrapped her arms around Luo Feng's neck and was so happy that she almost cried.

He had really become the top scorer of the college entrance examination for her!

"I love you!"

"I love you too!"

The two of them hugged each other, happy for each other.

The young ladies standing at the side felt extremely happy just by looking at it. They wondered if they should advertise and pull a banner to ride on the popularity of the top scorer of the college entrance examination.

The two of them were thinking about whether they should return to Crown City to report the good news or find a place to celebrate when Luo Feng's phone suddenly rang.

The other side of the phone was very noisy, Mother Luo's panicked voice could be heard, "Son, come back quickly! There are a lot of people at the door, saying they're looking for you!"

"Who's here?"

"I think he's from the Ministry of Education."

...

After hanging up, Luo Feng and Ai Tingya went out to hail a taxi and rushed back.

…

At the entrance of Luo Feng's house.

Mother Luo looked at the crowd at the door and was so nervous that she did not know what to do.

Teacher Yu squeezed to the front and smiled from ear to ear as she pulled Mother Luo over. "Mother Luo Feng, we're here to congratulate you!"

Pop!

Color ribbons floated down one after another, scaring Mother Luo so much that she shrunk her neck. She saw a huge banner spread out behind the crowd before she knew what was going on. "Warmly celebrating Student Luo Feng obtaining 748 points!"

Happiness came too suddenly. Mother Luo was so happy that she couldn't stand steadily. Teacher Yu hurriedly supported her and said, "Luo Feng's mother, congratulations. Luo Feng is this year's top science scholar!"

Mother Luo could not believe her ears. Her son was really so promising! Was she dreaming?!

She pinched her thigh hard, causing her to bare her teeth in pain. Then she immediately smiled from ear to ear. "Teacher, it's all because you taught him well. Thank you so much."

When the neighbors nearby saw the commotion, they all ran out. The eye-catching banner shocked their entire families and they could not help but give the Luo family a thumbs up.

...

Mother Luo had never felt so happy before. She was glowing!

"Luo Feng's mom, let me introduce you" Teacher Yu helped her to the front, "This is our Vice Principal Liu, and this is Director Lu from the Ministry of Education. They're all here to congratulate Luo Feng. Speaking of which, where's Luo Feng? Why hasn't he come out yet?"

"Luo Feng isn't at home, but I've already called him, he'll be back soon" Mother Luo saw how big the sun was outside and was afraid of neglecting the leader of the Ministry of Education, so she kept smiling apologetically.

Director Lu smiled and said, "It's okay. Congratulations to the top scorer's mother, all the same."

The reporters in the crowd holding microphones hooted. "Mother of the top scorer, share with us Luo Feng's learning state. How do you usually educate him?"

77 The First Words Of The Top Scorer Were An Advertisement?

All the famous television stations in Crown City surrounded Luo Feng's house, and the cameras were all aimed at Mother Luo. The cameras flashed, and for the first time in her life, Mother Luo experienced the treatment of a superstar. She couldn't stop smiling.

"Our Little Feng revised every day after coming back from school. After that, he has to send his classmates home. It's especially tough every day." Mother Luo vividly described Luo Feng's school days and nights.

Everyone looked at him with admiration. Director Lu nodded in satisfaction. It was very positive and very educational! It could be used as a positive promotional teaching material.

He summoned a reporter from Crown City TV Station and asked her to stand beside him. He had to broadcast Luo Feng's most positive image.

!

Liang Huan was beside herself. She had eaten enough dog food at the college entrance examination venue and thought that she probably wouldn't be able to interview the college entrance examination top scorer. Such a serious college entrance examination top scorer definitely wouldn't think about the young lady all day and in his paper in advance to pick her up.

Liang Huan raised the microphone and said, "Mother of the top scorer, you mean that Luo Feng revises with his classmates until late at night after class every day and sends them home?"

"That's right."

The people who heard this revealed envious expressions. He helped his classmates even when he was under so much academic pressure. This year's top scorer must be such a sensible child.

Teacher Yu also gave full affirmation on this point: "Student Luo Feng is the most enthusiastic in our class. He will patiently explain no matter who asked him for help. Moreover, he balances the time he takes to help his classmates and himself learn very well! He's a very good child!"

"Then your class did well this year?" Liang Huan asked.

Teacher Yu said confidently, "Very well. Both the top and the second scorer of the college entrance examination are in my class!"

Mother Luo asked, "Is the second scorer Ai Tingya?"

"Yes! She scored 726 marks!"

Everyone present gasped. The top and the second scorers were in the same class. This was a scene that many teachers would never see in their entire lives. Teacher Yu did not look very old, but her teaching achievements were already so great!

Mother Luo was the happiest amongst them all. She danced with joy, even happier than hearing that Luo Feng became the top scholar.

"Aiya, our Tingya is really capable. She didn't study until so late every day in vain." Mother Luo was in such a good mood that she decided to cook something delicious for Ai Tingya tonight.

Teacher Yu was stunned. Why was Ai Tingya studying at Luo Feng's house every night? Wasn't it enough for them to stick to each other in school? Why did they have to continue sticking together when they got home?

She wanted to change the topic to avoid puppy love being brought up.

A nosy reporter asked, "Our? May I ask if Ai Tingya is also a child of your family?"

"Of course!" Mother Luo loved to argue about this relationship.

Teacher Yu heard Mother Luo say confidently before she could stop her, "Xiao Feng is only where he is today because of Tingya's supervision and encouragement. You don't know, our Xiao Feng was very naughty in the past. He was the last to enter the classroom every day and the first to run after school. His father and I beat him up many times, but he didn't like to study."

"Fortunately, he met Tingya later on. She supervised his studies every day and came to tutor Xiao Feng every week. Guess what? His results improved so much that he could even tutor Tingya in the later stages. Hahaha!" Mother Luo covered her mouth and laughed non-stop.

However, the others felt that something was wrong.

The reporter asked again, "It's all thanks to Ai Tingya that Luo Feng became the top scorer of the college entrance examination, right?"

He felt that the first and second place were competing for supremacy and urging each other. How storylike! It was explosive enough.

Teacher Yu's heart was in her throat. She could not cover Mother Luo's mouth in front of so many people. She could only beg Mother Luo in her heart to watch the occasion and not say anything messy.

"Not all," Mother Luo said.

Before Teacher Yu could catch her breath, she heard Mother Luo say, "It's also because of love!"

"Cough! Cough, cough, cough!" Teacher Yu bent down and coughed violently.

Sh*t! The leader is still here!

"Teacher Yu, what's wrong? Let me help you sit down for a while." Mother Luo patted Teacher Yu's back and helped her sit on the stool beside her.

Teacher Yu covered her face, not daring to look at Director Lu's expression.

The reporters at the scene became excited. This was the explosive headline they wanted. The flashes couldn't stop and they aimed at Mother Luo's proud smile.

Director Lu's face was terrifyingly dark. Young love was not suitable to be a role model.

He patted Liang Huan's shoulder and gestured for her to interview Mother Luo. As expected, the reporters from the big station were more reliable at this time. Some media outlets were always working hard on unorthodox methods.

Liang Huan suddenly felt a little unhappy. Why did this word sound so familiar?

She seemed to have heard it at the college entrance examination. The sour smell of love had dealt her a huge blow. It was still fresh in her mind after a long time.

Suddenly, one of the neighbors shouted, "Luo Feng is back!"

The faces and cameras seemed to have been trained. They all turned in the same direction, scaring Luo Feng. The people surrounding the door almost occupied half of the district. It was even livelier than giving out free eggs.

"It's Luo Feng!" The reporters swarmed forward.

Of course, they had to give their spots to the leader in the end no matter how good their position was.

Luo Feng saw Vice Principal Liu winking at him as if warning him not to spout nonsense. And there was someone standing beside him. Luo Feng remembered that he was Director Lu from the Ministry of Education and had come to their school to inspect before.

However, for some reason, he felt that Director Lu's expression was a little ugly when he saw him and Ai Tingya holding hands.

What surprised him even more was that the reporter who had interviewed him and his relationship studies at the school gate was also there.

Luo Feng smiled and greeted, "Hello, nice to meet you again."

Liang Huan did not know what expression to put on as she roared in her heart, "It's indeed the two of you!"

At that time, she accidentally stopped Luo Feng and interviewed him with a freak combination of factors. She heard him say that he wanted to be the top scholar in the college entrance examination and apply for Oxford. Even though Liang Huan felt that they were bragging, she still wished them well in their love and felt a little jealous.

Who knew that it was true!

Luo Feng really got the top scorer!

Director Lu sorted out his emotions and walked over to shake Luo Feng's hand: "Congratulations, Luo Feng, you're the pride of our Crown City!"

The flash went off again, capturing this perfect scene.

Mother Luo, who was standing at the side, was so relieved that she was about to cry. Her son was actually so promising and could even shake hands with the big leader. He would even be on the newspapers and television tomorrow. This was an honor that the Luo family had never had!

Liang Huan walked up to the two of them at the right time and revealed a professional reporter's smile. "Congratulations, Luo Feng. Do you have any feelings that you want to share with everyone?"

Luo Feng looked at the people huddled together in front of him and felt that this scene was familiar. He said, "I hope that everyone will support our Good Me Milk Tea."

...

78 I Hope My Mother Will Be Proud

Luo Feng saw so many heads moving around. It was too similar to when the milk tea shop became popular. He couldn't help but advertise.

Director Lu's smile froze on his face, and Liang Huan felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

One had to know that the advertisement slots on their station were hard to come by. Many famous companies lined up for three years, and some even spent a lot of money to cut the queue. Yet, Luo Feng just got them for free?

Luo Feng looked at everyone's blank expressions and deduced that he didn't go into enough detail. "Good Me Milk Tea opened a branch on New Summer Street in Nanlin City. We welcome all new and old customers to the shop."

!

Everyone: "…"

You're really not polite!

Director Lu was speechless. The top scorer of this year's college entrance examination was too special compared to previous years, making him not know whether to be angry or laugh.

Teacher Yu, who was resting by the corridor, heard Luo Feng advertise which offended so many people. She hurriedly came up to help her student redeem himself and whispered to Director Lu. "The profits from the milk tea shop are mainly used for the construction of the orphanage. Ai Tingya is a child from the orphanage."

Ads by Pubfuture

Director Lu was enlightened. This advertisement should indeed pass for the sake of public welfare!

Teacher Yu heaved a sigh of relief. She finally established a tall image for Luo Feng and wasn't a love-struck fool after going through so many twists and turns.

Chief Lu's tone was filled with admiration. "Good job, student! I didn't expect you to have both a business mind and a compassionate heart. Congratulations again!"

"Thank you, Director Lu!" Luo Feng was neither servile nor overbearing. He was calm and gave the camera a perfect smile.

The reporters seized the time to take photos. They were going to put this photo on the front page tomorrow!

The neighborhood was not lively for long.

Director Lu and Vice Principal Liu congratulated Luo Feng and handed him the prize money. They took a few photos and left.

After the leaders left, it was the neighbors' turn to care.

The old neighbors surrounded Mother Luo and praised her for her good education. They praised her so much that she couldn't find her way. She didn't even know when Luo Feng sent Ai Tingya back.

Mother Luo had never thought that her son would be able to bring home money looking at a cheque for 50,000 yuan and a cheque for 30,000 yuan on the table. Moreover, this money carried the fragrance of honor. It was much more thought-provoking than the previous pork ribs!

Mother Luo looked at the two checks left and right, wishing she could find a frame to frame them.

"Mom, I'm back" Luo Feng opened the door and entered the house.

Mother Luo ran over to hold his head and gave her son a kiss full of love. Mother Luo had never kissed him again ever since Luo Feng learned how to run, jump, and throw things.

"My good son, come in quickly. What do you want to eat tonight? Mom will make it for you!" Mother Luo seemed to have become a different person and was extremely solicitous.

"Anything you make is delicious." Luo Feng smiled.

That hit Mother Luo's soft spot. How could she have such a sensible son!

"What a good son you are. You're good at studying and even know how to open a shop. I'm so proud of you!" After Mother Luo finished speaking, she remembered that she had never heard Luo Feng mention the milk tea shop.

She asked, "When did you open a milk tea shop? Where did you open it?"

Luo Feng said without changing his expression, "It's open at the school entrance. That milk tea shop was funded by Ting Ya Orphanage. I help when I'm free."

Mother Luo would definitely ask him where he got the money from again if he said that the milk tea shop was his. Don't mention things if they could not be explained.

"It's been hard on you," Mother Luo said from the bottom of her heart. "I'm really proud of you."

Luo Feng felt a lump in his throat hearing this.

In his previous life, he was engrossed in his business venture and had yet to achieve anything when his parents passed away. In the end, he did not do anything to express his filial piety. He did not expect to hear his mother's affirmation of him in his life.

"Thank you mom." Luo Feng rubbed his eyes, his chest rippling with infinite warmth.

…

The news that Luo Feng was the top scholar of the college entrance examination spread like wildfire. Father Luo, who was originally working at the office, specially applied for leave and ran back with a bottle of wine in his hand.

The father and son were going to get drunk.

However, the house was destined to not be quiet today.

After a while, there was another knock on Luo Feng's door. Lei Jin stood at the door with his mother, Sun Bi, holding milk and fruits.

"Sister Sun, you brought so many things with you. Come in quickly." Mother Luo warmly invited them into the house.

Sun Bi's eyes were red. Just looking at Luo Feng's face made her tears fall uncontrollably.

"Auntie Sun, what's wrong? Don't cry" advised Luo Feng.

Sun Bi lowered her head and wiped her tears. She was so excited that she could not speak. She only shook her head vigorously.

Mother Luo sat beside Sun Bi. "You don't understand. Your Auntie Sun is happy. Lei Jin, tell me, how did you do?"

"612." Lei Jin said shyly.

"Not bad, Lei Jin. You performed exceptionally well!" Luo Feng was also very happy. This was much better than his previous life's results of just over 400.

With Lei Jin's results, he could choose any key university in the province.

Sun Bi wiped her tears and adjusted her emotions. "I asked Teacher Yu just now. She said that Lei Jin is ranked in the top 20 in the school. It's not a problem for him to be in one of the key schools."

Mother Luo was deeply touched seeing her excited expression. "This is great news. Sister Sun, you've finally made it!"

Sun Bi patted Mother Luo's hand: "Luo Feng being the top scorer is still better. I came today to thank you, Luo Feng. Lei Jin wouldn't have gotten such a high score if it weren't for you."

She stood up without warning and bowed deeply to Luo Feng.

Luo Feng quickly helped her up: "Auntie Sun, you don't have to do this. I just gave Lei Jin some important points, and he mainly relied on his own hard work. He's been doing questions in school every day until his hands go weak. He deserves today's results."

Lei Jin immediately smiled hearing this.

Finally, someone affirmed his hard work. Luo Feng was worthy of being his good brother for so many years, he really understood him!

Lei Jin looked at his mother, his eyes filled with anticipation, hoping that his mother would give him an affirmation.

Sun Bi touched Lei Jin's head. Only then did she realize that her son had grown taller than her at some point in time. She had to tiptoe to touch his head.

...

"It's been hard on the two of you." Sun Bi smiled.

Only they knew how difficult life was for the mother and son. Lei Jin thought of his mother's tiredness and couldn't hold back his tears. The big boy was too embarrassed to ask his mother for a hug, so he could only turn around and hug Luo Feng.

Lei Jin was really grateful to Luo Feng. Lucky he had such a brother! Luckily, Luo Feng supervised him and he didn't disappoint his mother!

"Alright, alright!" Mother Luo patted their backs. "Why are you crying on a big day? You haven't eaten yet, right? It's just right. Let's sit down and eat!"

The two families were old acquaintances, so there was no need to be polite.

Mother Luo prepared dinner, and Sun Bi rushed into the kitchen to help. The joy of the two families passed through the clank from the wine glasses. Luo Feng really hadn't eaten so happily in a long time.

79 The Tug-and-Pull War Between The Recruitment Teachers

Luo Feng had just sent Lei Jin and his mother away when Ai Tingya appeared at the door after dinner.

Luo Feng quickly pulled her into the house. "You would have made it in time for dinner if you arrived 10 minutes earlier. Why did you bring the suitcase?"

Ai Tingya was holding a brand new suitcase in her hand. The film on the outside had yet to be torn open, and she was holding a paper bag in her other hand. She handed the suitcase and the paper bag to Luo Feng.

"It's a gift from the Dean. I wanted to see you, so I brought it for you," Ai Tingya said with a smile.

Luo Feng opened it and found that the paper bag contained a sheet set, a thermos, and a new set of headphones. They were all things used in university and were very practical.

"Thank the Dean for me. I like them very much."

Luo Feng held Ai Tingya's hand and entered the house. Seeing this, Mother Luo quickly asked if Ai Tingya had eaten yet.

Ai Tingya came over after eating so she thanked Mother Luo repeatedly.

After cleaning up the kitchen, Mother Luo called her husband back to their room, leaving the two of them alone.

At this moment, Luo Feng's door rang again.

He thought it was some classmate's parents. Luo Feng opened the door and realized that it was someone he didn't know.

The young man wore gold-rimmed glasses and a well-ironed suit. He stood upright and exuded a refined aura.

Luo Feng asked, "Who are you looking for?"

The young man took out his business card and said, "My name is Mike Li. I'm Stanford's student recruitment teacher in our province. You must be Luo Feng, right?"

The college entrance examination was a battlefield for students, and it was the same for recruitment teachers.

A province only had one top scholar in the humanities and one top scholar in the sciences. In comparison, there were many famous universities. The recruitment teachers of key universities had to seize every second to pull good students to their schools.

"Please come in" Luo Feng quickly invited him in when he heard that he was from Stanford.

This was one of the schools that Ai Tingya and he wanted to enter.

The two of them entered the house and sat down. Ai Tingya hurriedly served tea when she heard that he was a recruitment teacher. Mike Li only thanked her politely.

Luo Feng had received a whole day of send-offs. Everyone who came to congratulate him had a 120% warm smile on their faces. Luo Feng was not used to suddenly having a polite and distant teacher.

It made sense thinking about it. It was Stanford University after all. There were at least a dozen teachers who visited the top scorer of the college entrance examination every year.

Mike Li went straight to the point: "As for the school, I won't introduce it further. I'm sure you've heard of it, Luo Feng. The school has a preferential policy for the top scholars of each province. Moreover, with your results, it's not a problem for you to choose the major you like."

Luo Feng glanced at Ai Tingya and said, "Then can the second in the province enjoy the same treatment as me?"

Mike Li frowned when he heard something that came out of nowhere. "What does second place in the province have to do with you?"

"She's my girlfriend."

Mike Li stroked his chin and thought about it. He remembered that the second name in the province was Ai Tingya, and she was also a recruitment target for the school. He had yet to visit her. It turned out that he would recruit another student this year.

He really didn't care. In any case, Ai Tingya was also very outstanding. It wouldn't be a problem for her to apply to their school. It's just that her treatment definitely won't be comparable to Luo Feng's.

"I can't guarantee that. You know that some privileges are only open to the top scholar. Why don't I waive the tuition fees or something?" Mike Li said sincerely.

With their school's reputation, there was no need to break the precedent for a second place. Or rather, he was too lazy to apply.

Before coming to Luo Feng's house, he had already gone to the neighboring province to look for the top scorer of the college entrance examination there. When the other party heard that there were all kinds of preferential treatment, he couldn't stop smiling and signed the registration form on the spot.

Luo Feng pondered for a moment and looked at Ai Tingya beside him. "He said that."

Mike Li looked at Luo Feng in confusion. He was discussing it with the girl next to him. Wait…

"Are you Ai Tingya?" Mike Li asked.

"Yes, hello, Teacher," Ai Tingya greeted politely.

The two of them looked at each other. Mike Li looked away awkwardly. He had not said anything bad. Why did he feel like he did something bad? Some things were hard to say with the second place staring at him.

Ai Tingya knew that it was not good for her to be here, so she prepared to return to the orphanage first.

At this moment, a knock on the door interrupted their conversation.

Ai Tingya walked over to open the door and saw Xiao Fei standing outside. Behind her was a kind-looking old man. His white beard was very neat, and his eyes narrowed into gentle crescents when he smiled.

"You're indeed here." Xiao Fei pulled Ai Tingya over and introduced her to the old man with a smile. "Professor Jing, she's Ai Tingya."

Professor Jing chuckled and held Ai Tingya's hand. "Hello, Ai Tingya. I'm an admissions teacher from Oxford University in this province. I couldn't find you at the orphanage, so the young lady brought me here."

Xiao Fei raised her head proudly. She knew Ai Tingya the best. She knew where she was in a jiff.

"Uh…" Ai Tingya hesitated.

Wasn't this even more awkward… 𝗯𝗲𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

It was not appropriate for the admissions teacher to make another trip. Ai Tingya simply invited him into the house.

Professor Jing entered the room and saw Mike Li. The two of them were stunned at the same time, and the situation became even more awkward.

They were all teachers from top universities and had more or less met each other. It was rare for two admission teachers to snatch someone. Everyone would intentionally or unintentionally avoid such an ugly situation.

Therefore, Professor Jing ignored Luo Feng, who was the first and went to Ai Tingya's, who was placed second, place of residence.

Who would have thought that the first and second place would be together this year?

The four of them sat on one side and looked at each other.

"Ahem, since both of you are here, let me tell you about the treatment of our school…" Professor Jing was indeed an old professor who had seen many storms. He directly told them about the preferential treatment the school gave to the top students.

And it blurred the difference between the first and second place, making Luo Feng and Ai Tingya, who were tied together, feel very good.

Mike Li knew what was going on. He was going to snatch them away in front of him!

It was one thing not to be able to recruit students, but it was another thing to be inferior.

He quickly changed his words. "It's not impossible to discuss this matter with Ai Tingya. Our school cherishes talents very much."

...

Professor Jing was not to be outdone. He immediately made the decision and said clearly, "Luo Feng, as long as you're willing to come to our school, I guarantee that Ai Tingya will enjoy the same preferential treatment as you!"

He was an old professor of the school after all. He had a greater say compared to Mike Li.

Seeing that he could not win against Professor Jing in this aspect, Mike Li changed the topic and said, "Professor Jing, let them think about it themselves. After all, they will only enjoy the benefits for four years. Choosing the right major is a matter of a lifetime."

Stanford and Oxford had their own ace majors, and Mike Li wanted to start with them.

Professor Jing was also very willing to hear their thoughts.

Luo Feng suddenly raised his head and said, "Teachers, how are the accommodations?"

80 I Have To Be Fierce In Order To Donate Money!

"Teachers, how is the accommodation situation in the school?" Luo Feng asked.

Mike Li choked. Why was accommodation more important? Why did Luo Feng keep thinking about it?

"Our school's accommodation conditions are very good. Two people to one room with a separate bathroom. Moreover, the boys' dormitory is closer to the canteen and the sports field. The girls' dormitory conditions are similar, but it's a little further back." Mike Li cleared his throat and said, in order not to be beaten by Professor Jing.

When Luo Feng heard this, he frowned slightly in dissatisfaction.

Mike Li did not know why he was dissatisfied. Their school's dormitory building had just been repaired this year. It was slightly better than Stanford's. Why did Luo Feng have such an expression?

"The male and female dormitories are too far apart. Wouldn't it be like a long-distance relationship?" Luo Feng said.

Mike Li was speechless.

Professor Jing stroked his beard, indicating that Mike Li was still too inexperienced.

Suddenly, he slapped Luo Feng's shoulder and said, "I can understand you well, Student Luo Feng. Back then, my lover and I also met on the university campus. I could see her combing her hair by the window when I jogged past every morning. I still can't forget her golden-threaded hair. At that time, I swore that I would definitely marry her."

Then, Professor Jing began to introduce the accommodations. "Our school's male and female dormitories are in the same area. The two buildings are facing each other. Student Ai Tingya and you can start holding hands when you go downstairs. You can meet for dinner and classes."

Luo Feng pinched his chin and imagined it. He felt that it was very good. He liked it very much.

It all depended on how Tingya would choose now that they had a dating venue.

He turned to look at Ai Tingya and said, "Tingya, what do you think?"

Ai Tingya looked at the expectant faces of the two recruitment teachers and pursed her lips. "Teachers, do you think I can study Finance at your schools?"

If she wanted to earn money and run her and Luo Feng's company, she had to know how to do business.

Therefore, she did not care about the treatment or accommodation. She only cared about whether she could have her preferred education.

Professor Jing raised his head and laughed upon hearing this. "Of course. Student Ai Tingya, finance is our ace. You're very welcome to join."

Mike Li wilted like a frosted eggplant, defeated by Oxford.

Professor Jing took advantage of the situation. "It seems that the two of you are more inclined to our school. I'll come and sign the admission application with you tomorrow. I hope we can study together in the future."

"Thank you, Professor," they said in unison.

After chatting for a while, it was getting late. Professor Jing and Mike Li prepared to leave.

Mike Li thought about it and felt that something was wrong. He whispered to Professor Jing, "Professor, why do I remember that your wife is more than 20 years younger than you? Where did you get a school romance?"

Professor Jing coughed awkwardly and said seriously, "I was teaching in the school at that time. Can't I look up at the student dormitory?"

Mike Li stared at Professor Jing speechlessly. You're really good at avoiding the important points. I didn't lose because of my school's aptitude, but my eloquence. He thought to himself.

After sending the two recruitment teachers off, Luo Feng looked at the resplendent neon lights on the street and wanted to bring Ai Tingya shopping on the street and buy some school supplies.

"Luo Feng, you said that I can control the income of the milk tea shop. Is that true?" Ai Tingya suddenly asked solemnly.

Luo Feng nodded seriously seeing this. 𝒃𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Can you accompany me to the bank then?" Ai Tingya tugged at him.

The two of them found the nearest ATM. When Ai Tingya was withdrawing the money, Luo Feng turned around and listened to the ATM clatter. Luo Feng knew that the amount was not small at all.

The package on Ai Tingya's back was bulging. It was really not safe for the two students to carry a large amount of cash, so Luo Feng hailed a taxi on the street and the two of them returned to the orphanage.

There was a strict rest period in the orphanage. The children were not allowed to play in the courtyard after eight in the evening.

The courtyard was silent, and one could vaguely hear the laughter in the room.

The two of them went straight to Dean Du's room. When they pushed open the door, they saw Dean Du sitting at his desk.

"Xiaoya, you're back. Did you see the recruitment teacher?" When Dean Du saw Ai Tingya, she hurriedly stood up and poured water for the two of them.

Ai Tingya's heart ached as she looked at the additional white hair on Dean Du's temples.

"Xiaoya, what's wrong?" Dean Du saw that she was about to cry and looked at Luo Feng worriedly.

Ai Tingya blinked and restrained her emotions. She took out a thick wad of cash from her bag and handed it to Dean Du. "Dean, this is 50,000 yuan. I hope you can accept it."

Director Du did not care what Ai Tingya's intentions were. Her first reaction was to push the money back. "What are you doing? Take the money back!"

Ai Tingya maintained the gesture of paying and said, "Dean, I've decided to go to Oxford to study. I won't be able to be by your side for a long time. You'll have to deal with many things in the orphanage alone."

Dean Du looked helplessly at Ai Tingya, who was about to cry. This child was too sensible. She was clearly still a child, but she was already worried about the adults.

"You don't have to worry about us. Just focus on studying. Xiao Fei is not young anymore. She can work in the milk tea shop. The other children are also sensible and know how to learn from you. Don't worry about us," Dean Du declined.

She knew that 50,000 yuan might be almost all of Ai Tingya's savings.

She might have successfully entered university but she could not bear to accept it when she would have to spend money everywhere in another city.

However, Ai Tingya was very persistent. Her hand that was holding the 50,000 yuan trembled slightly, and she had no intention of putting it down. She insisted that Dean Du take it.

Luo Feng could not stand it anymore. He took the cash from Ai Tingya and handed it to Dean Du.

"This is a token of Tingya's appreciation. Dean, please accept it," Luo Feng advised. "If you don't accept it, she won't be able to go out to study in peace."

Dean Du looked at Luo Feng and then at Ai Tingya. He took the money and said, "Then I'll help you save it first."

Ai Tingya rubbed her eyes and sniffled happily.

"You're really…" Dean Du rubbed Ai Tingya's head helplessly and lovingly.

Generally, children from orphanages would no longer belong to the orphanage after they turned 18 years old. They had their own lives to fight for. Over the years, Dean Du had raised so many children. Some might come back once a year, and she would never see some of them ever again.

Ai Tingya was the most obedient and sensible child she had ever raised. She could not bear to part with her.

Dean Du's eyes turned red at the thought of this.

Luo Feng changed the topic seeing that the two of them were about to cry. "Dean Du, I'm going to donate a million yuan to the orphanage as an education fund for the children. Any child who studies hard will be rewarded."

"No," Ai Tingya stopped him.

...

She already felt bad after taking the profits from the milk tea shop. She did not want to use any more of Luo Feng's money.

81 Ai Tingya's Background

Ai Tingya hurriedly stood up to stop him. "Luo Feng, you're not allowed to do that!"

"Ai Tingya is not allowed to speak." Luo Feng pretended to be cold and said in a low voice.

In the past, Luo Feng had always been gentle with her. Ai Tingya was not used to his sudden change in attitude and did not know how to respond. She was stunned on the spot and felt a little aggrieved.

Luo Feng took the opportunity to say to Dean Du, "Dean, you know that studying is the best way out for the children. With the reward and Tingya as an example, I believe they will definitely work harder than before. I've decided to spend a portion of the money on the children every year in the future. This way, Tingya and I will be more motivated."

! 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟𝚎ｌ.𝚘ｒｇ

Dean Du really could not refuse hearing Luo Feng's explanation.

Indeed, she hoped that every child would be like Ai Tingya and walk on a good path after living a rough life for more than ten years.

"Alright." Dean Du compromised. She walked to the front of the summer vacation and took down a document. "The donor has to leave his name. You have to write it too."

Luo Feng picked up his pen and looked at Ai Tingya, who was also sulking. He wrote with a flourish, "Ai Tingya's family."

Dean Du smiled knowingly and specially showed the registration form to Ai Tingya.

In the past, Ai Tingya would stomp her feet in embarrassment but she was in a fit of anger now. She pursed her lips and turned to the side. After Luo Feng transferred the money to the orphanage's account, he realized that there was no cash return.

Donating was not an investment and went against Ai Tingya's wishes. The billionaire became a nine-figure millionaire again.

"Alright, Xiaoya, stop throwing a tantrum." Dean Du helped smooth things over.

Ai Tingya listened to Dean Du the most. Her lips curled up, but she still nodded obediently.

Dean Du's gaze softened as he stared fixedly at Ai Tingya's face. "I think it's time for you to know."

"What about?" Ai Tingya sensed that the atmosphere was not right.

Dean Du said, "It's about your parents."

A buzzing sound rang in Tingya's mind. Her expression was blank and she did not know how to face it.

Luo Feng said, "I'll wait for you outside."

He wanted to give Ai Tingya some privacy. Luo Feng would not deliberately probe unless she took the initiative to tell him.

"Don't go." Tingya pulled him back, as fragile as a fragile vase. "Stay here with me."

She followed Dean Du to the window uneasily and saw her take out an old wooden box from the bedside table. When she opened it, she saw a golden lock and a yellowed newspaper lying in the box.

Dean Du took out the golden lock and placed it in Ai Tingya's hand. "This is what you were wearing around your neck when we found you."

The golden lock was heavy, and the word "safety" was engraved in the middle.

The golden luster had not tarnished after so many years. When Dean Du saw this golden lock, it was like seeing the swaddled child from back then.

"18 years ago, there was a car accident on the Crown City Bridge. A small car hit the pier and caused a fire. Fortunately, passersby saw it and saved you and your parents from the car." She started to explain.

Ai Tingya subconsciously tightened her grip on Luo Feng's hand hearing this.

"Unfortunately, the two adults couldn't make it before the ambulance arrived because of their serious injuries," Dean Du recalled. "Later, the fire brigade rushed to the scene to put out the fire. The things in the car were almost burned, and only half of their driver's licenses were left. There was an 'Ai' on them."

At that time, Ai Tingya was still a baby in swaddling clothes. She was actually unharmed after the collision and fire. This meant that her mother in the backseat was protecting her.

Due to her mother's greatness, the local government even published a newspaper to search for Ai Tingya's relatives. However, they had too little information and could not find them. Later, Ai Tingya stayed in the orphanage.

Dean Du unfolded the old newspaper. It had been more than a decade, and the paper was a little brittle. It would break with a little force. She pointed at a small section and said, "This is it. It recorded all the information at that time."

There was also a photo of Ai Tingya when she was young.

Ai Tingya trembled as she held the newspaper. Her eyes were blurry with tears as she sobbed.

The children in the orphanage would more or less ask the Dean about their parents, but Tingya did not. She was worried that she had been abducted by human traffickers or abandoned by her parents.

She was afraid of facing this truth, so she might as well not touch it.

Ai Tingya knew that she was loved now that she knew that she had parents and that they loved her very much, the golden lock contained their simplest blessings for their child.

Luo Feng put his arm around her shoulder and let her lean against his chest.

Dean Du said to Luo Feng, "I've never been to the scene, but I heard from the firefighters that the car was from a good brand. Moreover, Xiaoya's original family background should be very good looking at this golden lock. You can take note when you go out to study."

"I'll remember." Luo Feng nodded seriously. "Thank you, Dean Du."

"I should be the one thanking you." Dean Du looked at Ai Tingya with heartache. "Thank you for taking care of Xiaoya. The two of you have to treat each other well in the future."

"Okay!"

…

Luo Feng brought Ai Tingya out of Dean Du's room.

After knowing the truth, Ai Tingya seemed to have lost her soul and let Luo Feng lead her forward.

Ai Tingya stared fixedly at the door when the cold wind in the courtyard blew past her tears and said, "In the past, I always dreamed that two people would appear at the door one day. They would tell me that they were my parents and bring me home. My memories start from the orphanage. I've always felt that it was impossible for me to get lost and wondered if I had been abducted."

She squeezed the golden lock, her dry eyes moistening again. "In the end, the truth was even crueler than I thought. They'll never come."

Luo Feng touched her hair. "They will definitely be very proud to see you like this in Heaven."

Ai Tingya leaned on Luo Feng's shoulder and whimpered softly.

…

Ai Tingya had been staring blankly at the golden lock for a few days ever since she found out about her background.

In the past, she would not have thought about it if she did not dare to ask. Now that she knew, she could not ignore it.

She would always take out the old newspaper and read it back and forth, as if she could find new clues between the lines. Ai Tingya knew that it was futile, but she could not restrain her thoughts.

On this day, there were no customers in the milk tea shop. Ai Tingya sat at the table in a daze again.

When she saw a family of three walking hand in hand by the roadside, her eyes followed the others until they turned the corner and were out of sight.

Luo Feng's heart ached when he saw her like this, so he took a cup of the new products from the shop and placed it in front of Ai Tingya.

...

"Thank you." Ai Tingya took a sip and praised indifferently. "It tastes good."

Luo Feng held her hand that was holding the milk tea and said, "Tingya, do you still remember our agreement?"

Now that Ai Tingya's mind was filled with her family, there was no place for her to contain an agreement. "What?"

"Come with me." Luo Feng pulled Ai Tingya up and said, "I'm going to fulfill my promise."

82 Time To Fulfill The Promise

Ai Tingya was uninterested and just tugged behind Luo Feng wherever he went.

Luo Feng pulled her to the school gate. "I left my things in the shop. Go in first. I'll be right back."

Luo Feng had already disappeared before Ai Tingya could ask where she should wait. She did not want to use her brain. Since he asked her to wait inside, so be it. Anyway, the school was only so big. Luo Feng would definitely be able to find her.

During the school summer break, only the students who were third-year students were having extra lessons.

"Uncle, can I go in?" Tingya walked to the guard and greeted him.

Under normal circumstances, the school would not allow students to enter when they were in class. However, the guard knew Ai Tingya and knew that she was the second in the province. He did not stop her and only asked him to sign in before letting her in.

"By the way, girl."

Ai Tingya walked for a while and heard the guard call her.

The guard returned to the guardhouse and took out a small handful of gardenias for her. The white petals were still stained with water droplets.

Ai Tingya looked at the guard in surprise.

Perhaps it was the first time the uncle had given flowers, his simple face revealed a pure smile as he said, "Someone asked me to pass it to you. He said that he hoped you would always be happy."

Ai Tingya did not know much about flowers, but Luo Feng had been studying flower language for a period of time in the past. Ai Tingya glanced at him. She remembered that the flower language of gardenias was joy.

Luo Feng must have specially asked the guard to make her happy.

"Thank you, Uncle." Ai Tingya took out a flower and gave it to him. "I hope you'll always be happy too."

Ai Tingya continued to walk into the school after sharing her joy.

Ai Tingya was a pragmatic girl and felt that flowers, which could only be seen but not eaten, were very expensive consumer goods. She could not understand them.

But which girl hadn't imagined the romantic scene of her boyfriend giving her flowers?

She had once imagined countless scenes of Luo Feng giving her flowers. Ai Tingya had seriously thought about it. Perhaps Luo Feng had bought a large bouquet of flowers on a whim one day when he was walking on the street and she felt that it was expensive, so she dissuaded him.

Then the two of them might have plucked one on the side of the road heading home.

Ai Tingya felt that this scene was more suitable for her. Unexpectedly, it was handed over by the guard.

She covered her mouth and laughed. Suddenly, she was stunned. She had not smiled so happily in a long time ever since she found out about her background. Luo Feng really had a magical power that could always make her feel extremely at ease.

Ring—

The bell rang.

The third year students who were in class ran down the stairs one after another. Ai Tingya thought that it should be time for exercise, but she did not expect that the tutoring had to be strictly according to the school schedule.

She stood at the side with the flowers and made way for the students.

A female classmate in school uniform ran towards Ai Tingya. She looked like Ai Tingya's junior. She stared at Ai Tingya with wide eyes and smiled.

"What's the matter?" Ai Tingya subconsciously touched her face. There was nothing strange about her, right?

The female classmate magically took out a lily from behind her back and handed it to Ai Tingya.

"Ah… Thank you." The female classmate ran away with envy in her eyes before Ai Tingya could ask if it was arranged by Luo Feng. Immediately after, more students gave her flowers.

One from each of them. There were lilies, sunflowers, carnations, and so on. It was as if they had moved the flower shop over. After a while, Ai Tingya was almost drowned by the flowers. She almost couldn't hold them all with her thin arms.

Ai Tingya heaved a sigh of relief after confirming that there were no more students behind.

At this moment, a teacher walked over with a flower basket and helped Ai Tingya put the flowers in them.

"Thank you, Teacher." Ai Tingya was both happy and shy. Why had Luo Feng prepared such a special surprise?

She was already very satisfied at this point and really could not take anything else.

"Student Ai, let's go to the field to take a look," the young female teacher invited with a hint of envy on her face.

She helped her carry a portion of the flowers and walked towards the field without waiting for Ai Tingya's reply. Ai Tingya was at a loss and could not embarrass her teacher. She followed obediently.

There were a few huge signs on the field with a huge box in the middle. Tingya roughly estimated that the box was about the same size as her.

There were different drawings on the four sides of the box. Ai Tingya was standing too far away to see what was being drawn.

The teacher patted her and said, "What are you waiting for? Go over quickly."

Ai Tingya was a little excited as she stared fixedly at the box. She pushed aside the surrounding students and walked over. The first thing she saw was a purple sweater.

"This is my first official gift to you." Luo Feng's voice sounded on the radio. "Do you remember?"

Tears welled up in Ai Tingya's eyes. She was so happy that she was about to cry. She nodded vigorously.

The students surrounding her seemed to have rehearsed it long ago. They pulled Ai Tingya towards the second painting. Two cartoon characters were studying together. The girl was reading seriously while the boy was looking at the girl.

"You inspired me to achieve my current achievements," Luo Feng introduced. "But you might not know this. My gaze was always on you when we were together. I studied very seriously in private just so I can peek at you without any distractions." 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝑙．𝑜𝑟𝘨

"Wow! So romantic!" The students surrounding Ai Tingya sighed enviously.

When would he be able to have such a romance!

The next painting was also of two cartoon characters. The girl was dancing on the stage with her eyes closed, enjoying the stage very much. The boy was singing with her under the stage, looking very compatible.

"Thinking back to the past, I keep feeling that there's regret in the sweetness. I also want to use my way to support the stage you like. Please give me this chance in the future," Luo Feng continued.

The next painting was of a girl standing on the podium, blushing as she announced loudly.

Ai Tingya knew that this was her confession to Luo Feng on stage.

"The boy should be the one confessing. Now, I want to fulfill this promise."

Luo Feng, whose voice was only heard previously, was standing on the stage. He held the microphone and walked through the crowd to look at Ai Tingya. He said solemnly, "Tingya, are you willing to be my girlfriend and be with me forever? No illness or disaster can separate us. Are you willing?"

Everyone below the stage turned to look at Ai Tingya.

Tears welled up in Ai Tingya's eyes as she whispered, "I'm willing."

...

The students looked very anxious and encouraged her. "Senior, all the best!"

"Senior, speak up!"

"Senior, do you need us to help you shout?"

How could Luo Feng bear to see Ai Tingya shout at the top of her lungs? He pointed at the box and said, "If you're willing, please remove the red line on the box."

Ai Tingya looked sideways. Indeed, there was a red rope hanging by the side with a red rose tied to the bottom.

"I'm willing," Ai Tingya muttered, hoping that Luo Feng could hear her. Then, she pulled hard right on the heels of that.

Bang!

The salute cannons bloomed in the air, and colorful strips fell one after another, landing on the shoulders and heads of the people around them. The colorful balloons swayed in the wind and flew higher and higher.

"Seniors, be happy always!" The students said in unison and gave their sincerest blessings.

83 Everyone's Blessing

Luo Feng jumped down from the stage and ran to Ai Tingya's side under the sunlight.

"Why are you crying?" Luo Feng brushed Ai Tingya's ear hair and held her face tenderly.

Ai Tingya held a large bouquet of flowers and couldn't reach out to hug Luo Feng even if she wanted to. She cried so hard that she couldn't speak. She could only shake her head repeatedly, wanting to express how happy she was at this moment.

"I'm really… really… grateful…" Ai Tingya cried until she was out of breath. The surrounding students were so anxious that they wanted to be her mouth.

"I know, I know." Luo Feng hugged Ai Tingya and protected the back of her head with his hand. He patted her back with heartache, "We still have a lot of time. I'll listen to you slowly. You can tell me for the rest of your life."

"Yes!" Ai Tingya nodded solemnly.

"We want to listen in too!" A group of people suddenly said sourly.

Ai Tingya wiped her tears and saw Xiao Fei, Lei Jin, and Teacher Yu. There were also her classmates behind them.

"We drew the pictures together!" The students in the class scrambled to claim their masterpieces. "Tingya, you don't know how difficult it is to serve Luo Feng. He's not sloppy at all for you."

"Luo Feng and I thought of the speech together!" Xiao Fei giggled.

"Luo Feng and I went to buy the bouquet together and emptied out all the flower shops from the surrounding area." Lei Jin rubbed his nose.

"Luo Feng and I went to steal… borrow the keys to the broadcasting room. Let's hurry up and return them!" Teacher Yu said guiltily. She laughed as she spoke.

"Damn it! I feel very happy just looking at it."

"You have to be happy. My life may not be good, but the couple I support have to be in bliss!"

"What a great thing to be picked up by Luo Feng, boohoo, I've not even confessed to any girl before!"

Everyone sighed with emotion, but they were very happy for the two of them. They had been classmates for three years after all. They knew how difficult it had been for Ai Tingya. The hardships had finally come to an end.

At the end of the crowd, Xing Miaomiao looked at Luo Feng and Ai Tingya with a complicated expression. She sighed sadly. She might have been standing beside Luo Feng now if she hadn't been so pretentious.

However, she was not jealous of Ai Tingya at all. Xing Miaomiao admitted from the bottom of her heart that she was indeed not as outstanding as Ai Tingya, nor was she worthy of the current Luo Feng after so many things had happened.

After the commotion, everyone bade farewell reluctantly. The third-year students continued to go back to their books and fight for a bright future. Teacher Yu went to return the keys, and Xiao Fei went to the milk tea shop to help.

His classmates also went home after exchanging pleasantries.

Ai Tingya held a large bouquet of flowers and walked home hand in hand with Luo Fengshu. Her face was filled with happiness.

The passersby turned around one after another. There were also many young couples who revealed envious gazes when they saw such an eye-catching bouquet.

"Look at her boyfriend! It feels like it will kill you to send me a flower!"

"It's so beautiful. I want it too."

"It'll cost thousands. I've already spent my salary. How about next month?"

"Hmph!"

Ai Tingya could not help but laugh when she heard the small commotions flying past her ears. Her hands were sore from hugging these flowers. She felt like she had received all the flowers from the past decade.

"I'm so embarrassed that everyone is looking at me," Ai Tingya said with a smile.

"Let them look on, my wife is so beautiful, everyone is envious of me" Luo Feng joked.

The couple walked in front sweetly with their eyes filled with longing. Lei Jin, who was following behind, thought to himself that he was really enchanted. He actually wanted to go home with them. He was about to vomit from eating dog food.

"Well, I suddenly remembered that I have something on. I'll leave first." Lei Jin could not take it anymore and decided to take a taxi home.

"Oh, then I won't send you off."

"Alright, see you later."

Lei Jin waved his hand and realized that the two of them had already walked forward hand in hand. They really did not take him seriously at all. He had really forgotten his brother after having a wife.

Lei Jin got into the taxi angrily and told the driver to drive faster so that he wouldn't be accidentally injured by the young couple again.

…

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya followed the familiar path home.

"What kind of car do you like? We'll definitely buy a means of transportation when we go to university." Luo Feng looked at the sky and calculated.

"Anything is fine. I like whatever you buy." Ai Tingya was in a good mood today. She was happy no matter what Luo Feng said.

"We really have to buy a car. I think Lei Jin would be home by now if he took a taxi." Luo Feng stared ahead.

Ai Tingya didn't understand why Luo Feng was talking about Lei Jin again. She looked up and realized that Lei Jin was indeed standing at the intersection in front of them, rubbing his hands non-stop. He felt very excited.

The two of them walked forward.

"What are you doing here? Why aren't you going home?" Luo Feng asked curiously.

Lei Jin's house was opposite the intersection, but from the looks of it, he seemed to have been standing there for a while.

"Come with me, Luo Feng, you're famous now!"

Lei Jin brought the two of them home without any explanation, not forgetting to show Luo Feng his new computer.

It was bought by Lei Jin's mother to reward him for getting into a good university. Lei Jin cherished it very much. The entire room was in a mess while the computer table was spotless.

"Quickly take a look." Lei Jin opened a video. "I wanted to go home and play some games. I saw the homepage behind this video when I was looking for a guide!" He explained while Luo Feng was watching the video. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝗻𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹．𝐨𝐫𝗴

Luo Feng opened the video and realized that it was a highlight of the college entrance examination interview.

First, he was interviewed alone. Then, Ai Tingya was interviewed. Then, he entered the frame. Finally, the advertisement he had advertised was not cut out when he was congratulated as the top scholar.

Crown City TV Station had really broadcasted it for free!

"Look at the number of views. It's about to exceed 100,000!" Lei Jin pointed excitedly at the bottom left corner of the video.

The numbers on the thumb mark were still stacking. Tens of thousands of people were watching it online at the same time. In the era of information technology, this was almost comparable to the spread rate of television.

There were also netizens' comments below.

...

"I'm kneeling for Big Brother!"

"I thought he was a weakling, but he's actually a Saiyan!"

"That's the top scorer of our province's college entrance examination. He's really too bold to say the first two paragraphs. Hahahahaha."

"Luo Feng, you're going to be famous!" Lei Jin rubbed his palms together excitedly, as if Luo Feng could debut tomorrow.

Luo Feng didn't feel anything special. In this era, the Internet wasn't developed yet and hadn't formed a mature industrial chain. Most netizens were just watching for fun online and rarely spent money.

He still had to wait more than ten years before the live broadcast started. He was not interested in becoming an internet celebrity unless he could earn money.

Luo Feng felt bored. He supported his chin with one hand and ran his fingers along the roller.

"Wait!" Ai Tingya stopped him and pointed at a comment that was quickly moving forward.

[Good Me Milk Tea Shop at the entrance. Yes, I know it. I heard the surrounding residents say that drinking it can improve your results.]

?

The rumors that had almost been forgotten were brought up again. Many people below were asking for the exact address.

...

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya both turned to look at Lei Jin and realized that a huge battle was about to happen!

84 A Lie Told A Thousand Times Would Become The Truth

People kept asking for the address of the milk tea shop under the comments. At the same time, an accurate address was pinned at the top. The replies below were all: "The previous poster is a good person. A good person will have a safe life."

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya had a premonition that something was wrong, as if something similar had happened before.

The two of them turned back to look at Lei Jin's confused face.

"Why are you two looking at me?" Lei Jin scratched his head, vaguely feeling that things were not simple.

"Remember you said that drinking our milk tea can increase your concentration?" Luo Feng said.

Lei Jin thought for a moment and said, "That seems to be the case. I remember that you guys earned a lot of money back then. Hahahaha, I didn't mean it."

"I'm not praising you." Luo Feng thought to himself, "The rumors are getting more and more far-fetched!"

Luo Feng's phone suddenly rang as if to echo his words.

Luo Feng looked at the number and his heart tightened— It was the number to the landline in the shop.

Ads by Pubfuture

He heard the commotion in the background as soon as he picked up the call. Xiao Fei shouted at the top of her lungs, "Luo Feng! Help! There are suddenly so many customers in the shop! We can't handle it at all! The shop manager went to the city again! There are still more than 100 orders that haven't been completed!"

The sound of people ordering milk tea was almost overwhelming Xiao Fei's voice.

Seeing this, Ai Tingya stood up. "Let's go back and help!"

No sweet-nothings could compare to the shop's business.

Luo Feng looked at Lei Jin and said, "Come with us."

"Ah?" Lei Jin pointed at himself. "Me? But I've never made milk tea before. I can't help, right? Hahaha, go ahead. I'll support you mentally."

"You can also help greet the guests!"

Luo Feng had been doing business for so long, so he naturally understood that customers came first. How could he not have a person welcoming guests?

The familiar scene appeared again when the three of them took a taxi to the milk tea shop. There were densely packed people standing from the sidewalk at the entrance to the operating table in the shop.

The surrounding bosses came out to watch the crowd and looked at so many customers enviously. Some passersby found it novel and walked over to ask. Then, they joined the buying army.

They could see Xiao Fei's face that was about to cry from fear through the glass. She and the other staff were so busy that their feet nearly did not touch the ground.

Luo Feng didn't expect to welcome the peak of his business at this time, so he wasn't prepared.

"Quick, go in and help!" Ai Tingya lowered her head and went in, but it was crowded. She was squeezed out after taking two steps.

"Are you alright?" Luo Feng supported her.

Ai Tingya shook her head and looked at Xiao Fei angrily.

At this moment, a white-haired, energetic old lady noticed Luo Feng. She sized him up and pulled Luo Feng in surprise: "Are you this year's top scholar? I've seen you on TV!"

As soon as she said this, the people who were buying milk tea in front all turned around and looked at Luo Feng, making Luo Feng nervous.

The old lady pulled Luo Feng and continued, "The top scholar of the college entrance examination, can you give me an autograph? I want to give it to my grandson."

The others were also a little tempted.

"Sure! We'll give out the top scholar's autograph with every purchase of a cup of milk tea. He'll sign anything but white paper!" Ai Tingya suddenly said.

Luo Feng's eyes widened as he pulled her and whispered, "What are you doing? There are so many people, won't my hand break?"

Ai Tingya clasped her hands together and said, "I'm sorry, darling. We can relieve some pressure this way. We'll have to trouble you."

Before Ai Tingya could finish speaking, the army that wanted an autograph had already surged forward. Ai Tingya took this opportunity to crawl in and support Xiao Fei. Lei Jin was like a bodyguard, maintaining order at the scene to prevent anyone from being pushed down.

Luo Feng didn't even have time to savor the "darling" before he was drowned in the crowd. He held his pen and didn't know what to do.

…

At the same time, in a luxurious courtyard house in the suburbs of Lidian City.

An old man with white hair and a white beard sat under the eaves sun, and the rattan recliner creaked.

At this moment, Professor Jing pushed open the door and sat down beside the old man. He picked up the tea on the stone table and poured himself a cup.

The old man closed his eyes and did not speak, as if he was asleep.

"Old Ai, look what I brought you," Professor Jing said happily.

The old man's name was Ai Zhaojiang. He was Professor Jing's former colleague. He had taught at Oxford for many years and published countless papers. He had taught students from all walks of life.

Ai Zhaojiang ignored Professor Jing and changed his position.

Professor Jing took out his phone and followed him to the other side. He waved it and said, "Let me show you something good."

Ai Zhaojiang opened one eye curiously and saw a girl talking on the screen. She was beautiful and spoke appropriately and gently.

Seeing this, Ai Zhaojiang's eyes suddenly widened. He got up and snatched the phone. "She looks… Why does she look so much like Heng'er?" He said in disbelief.

Ai Heng was Ai Zhaojiang's only son. He ran away from home many years ago and there was no news of him after that.

Ai Zhaojiang asked around, but there was no result.

"They look alike, right! I also felt that she looked a little familiar when I first saw this girl. Later, I thought about it and realized that she was carved from the same mold as your child," Professor Jing said happily as he slapped his legs.

"Where did you get this video?" Ai Zhaojiang's hands trembled slightly.

"It's a live interview for the college entrance examination in Crown City. I asked a student to save it for me." Professor Jing patted his old friend's shoulder. "I was the one who persuaded this child to enter our school. She's an outstanding child, second in the province and will be coming here to study soon."

Ai Zhaojiang said excitedly, "Have you seen her in person? Is she doing well? Where is she staying now? Have you asked about her parents?"

Professor Jing sighed and said, "I've seen her information. This child grew up in an orphanage. It seems that her parents had already… Sigh, I'll investigate the details later."

Ai Zhaojiang also shook his head helplessly, not surprised by this result.

Ads by Pubfuture

People always left traces when they were alive. He had searched for so many years but had not found any news of his son. He was most likely long dead.

He did not dare to ask for too much at his age. It was already a great fortune to be able to find his granddaughter.

...

"An orphanage," Ai Zhaojiang repeated, his heart aching.

"Old Ai, don't be sad. I've looked into it briefly. The Dean is a good person even though Ai Tingya grew up in the orphanage. Moreover, she's also very hardworking. Look, she's even on the television." Professor Jing comforted him. 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝒎

"Her surname is Ai?" Ai Zhaojiang's eyes lit up.

Professor Jing nodded. "Yes, it seems that her parents left something behind to confirm this child's surname."

"Tingya… Tingya!" Ai Chaojiang repeated the name twice. "Good name, what a good name!"

It was a joyous occasion to have regained what he had lost. Ai Zhaojiang stood up excitedly, but he did not know what to do first. After calming down for a while, he asked, "Speaking of which, does she have a boyfriend?"

Professor Jing smiled and pulled the progress bar to the front, playing Luo Feng's interview video.

85 Luo Feng, To Be Observed

In this era, mobile phones were not touch-controlled big screens. The buttons alone took up more than half of the screen. The screen was not very big and was even a little small for someone Ai Zhaojiang's age.

He put on his reading glasses and focused on the display. He still felt a little blurry and couldn't see what Luo Feng looked like.

Professor Jing turned the volume up to the maximum.

The conversation between Luo Feng and the reporter sounded in the courtyard.

The more he listened, the uglier Ai Zhaojiang's expression became.

This kid's tongue was sharp and was not humble at all. He was far from what he had imagined!

"What does this Luo Feng's family do?" Ai Zhaojiang asked.

"An ordinary family."

"Hmph!" Ai Zhaojiang blew at his beard in disdain. "You glib-tongued brat. How can such a family be worthy of my granddaughter!"

He wouldn't think that Luo Feng looked so awesome in front of the camera. Ai Zhaojiang had seen at least 800 top scholars after all. In the past, he wouldn't bring anyone who wasn't the top scholar when he was involved in academics.

And in his opinion, Luo Feng's family was too ordinary, so there was no need to bother about him. It wasn't that Ai Chaojiang looked down on poor students, but he just wanted to give his granddaughter the best.

When Professor Jing heard this, he stood up for Luo Feng and said, "Don't despise him. Your granddaughter was still an orphan with no background before this. Luo Feng simply likes her. If Ai Tingya really grew up by your side, who knows how many people with impure motives she would meet."

Ai Zhaojiang thought about it and agreed, but he still did not show mercy.

"As her grandfather, I have to observe him carefully!"

Professor Jing continued, "I wouldn't if I were you. Before I came to look for you, I understood that Ai Tingya didn't have a good life in the past. She only became cheerful after meeting Luo Feng and even took the initiative to confess to Luo Feng in front of the entire school. Luo Feng did what he said, to become the top scholar of the college entrance examination, I think this young man is quite good."

"Hmph!" Ai Zhaojiang still did not want to admit it.

His biological granddaughter had not even stayed by his side for a few years before she was snatched away by someone else.

"Old Ai, you should be more tactful. Your granddaughter really likes Luo Feng after all, and I heard that the two of them even opened a milk tea shop together!"

Professor Jing pulled the video progress bar to the back, which happened to be the segment where Luo Feng advertised after all.

"Hahahaha!" He still found it funny no matter how many times he looked at it. "Look at how smart this kid is. He even dares to ride on the popularity of the provincial station."

Ai Zhaojiang couldn't pull his face down, so he only opened his eyes slightly to take a look. He had no objections to Luo Feng himself, but he couldn't stand it when he thought about how Luo Feng was his granddaughter's boyfriend.

Since Professor Jing dragged Luo Feng to his school, he will definitely help him if he can. He thinks highly of Luo Feng after all.

"Old Ai, don't be so wilful. Think about it carefully. Your granddaughter has been wandering outside for 18 years. You haven't been with her as long as Luo Feng has. Do you think she can accept it immediately? You will still need Luo Feng to put in a good word for you, right?" Professor Jing chuckled.

Ai Zhaojiang blushed and could only look away stubbornly.

He actually felt that Professor Jing was right. He actually had to build a good relationship with the kid who snatched his granddaughter!

"Hmph, in your dreams. I want to test that kid first. I hope he won't disappoint me. Otherwise, I won't hand my granddaughter over to him!" This was Ai Zhaojiang's final stubbornness!

"Alright, alright. Take your time to think about it. I'll leave first." Professor Jing poured a cup of tea and patted his butt after drinking it.

"Wait…" Ai Chaojiang stopped him. He tilted his face and did not speak for a long time.

Professor Jing asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Ai Zhaojiang slowly said after enduring for a long time. "That video… Give me a copy too…"

Professor Jing was stunned for a moment. Then, he laughed and said, "Why are you so awkward? I don't know how to do it either. I'll get my student to burn it into a disc and send it to you later."

"Hurry up," Ai Zhaojiang said.

"Just you wait." Professor Jing waved his hand.

The door was pushed open and closed. The courtyard house regained its peace. Ai Chaojiang let out a long sigh. He stopped drinking tea and basking in the sun. He stared blankly beside him for a moment.

He was old and could barely remember the time that had passed. This Osmanthus Fragrans tree had been planted by his son when he left home. It was already as tall as a pavilion.

Every autumn, the yellow osmanthus trees emitted a delicate fragrance, making his heart ache.

"It's been 18 years." Ai Chaojiang's eyes were filled with tears. "You're already 18 years old, but Grandpa hasn't seen you yet." 𝚋𝚎ｄｎｏ𝚟𝚎ｌ.ｎ𝚎𝚝

…

Good Me Milk Tea Shop in Crown City.

Luo Feng handed the last cup of milk tea to the customer. Lei Jin said respectfully, "Take care, welcome again next time!"

Xiao Fei quickly hung up the "Closed" sign.

A young female customer had already stepped into the shop before the new customers could arrive. She was stunned for a moment when she saw the sign. "It's so early, and you're closing?"

Luo Feng was so tired that his back was aching. He forced himself to explain, "Business was too good today, so we ran out of raw materials."

The female customer slapped her boyfriend beside her and complained, "I told you to come early, but you insisted that there were too many people and you didn't want to queue. Look, everything is sold out!"

Her boyfriend was also very innocent. How could he have expected this outcome? He curled up into a ball and did not dare to speak.

Luo Feng took a voucher and handed it to the female customer, "I'm sorry, we didn't expect business to be so good today and didn't prepare enough materials. I'll give you a coupon. Our ingredients will be in place tomorrow morning."

"Really!" The female customer happily took the coupon. "Then I'll come again tomorrow. Thank you."

After sending the two guests off, Luo Feng could finally sit down and rest.

Everyone was exhausted and sprawled on the table, unable to speak.

"I feel like I'm going to see my father…" Lei Jin lay on the table and said weakly.

"What did Uncle Lei say?" Luo Feng asked.

"He told me not to choose an advertising major. Otherwise, I'll be an easy target to be complained about fake publicity."

"Uncle Lei is right, but things will definitely go smoothly if you're in the media industry." Luo Feng laughed it off.

Their milk tea shop welcomed two peak sales just because of a few words from Lei Jin. If business could be so good every day… Forget it, it was too tiring.

...

"Everyone has worked hard today. The ingredients will arrive tomorrow morning. Xiao Fei, remember to remind your friends who are changing shifts" Luo Feng arranged.

"Okay!" Everyone replied weakly.

He looked back at the cash register, which was about to burst with money, and said, "Do you want to count the money today?"

"No!" Everyone said in unison. "We're so tired. Please, let's continue tomorrow instead."

86 From Being Scolded To Being Praised, All You Need Is To Gift A Car

Ai Tingya and Xiao Fei were so tired that they couldn't even straighten their backs. It was rare for them not to object to the taxi Luo Feng hired for them. They sat in it and said goodbye before returning to the orphanage.

Luo Feng originally planned to go home with Lei Jin, but he received a call halfway. He first sent Lei Jin to his house and then asked the taxi driver to turn around and go to another place.

"Why isn't the brat back yet?" Mother Luo crossed her arms and stood on the balcony. "He said he's bringing Tingya back for dinner tonight. I've been preparing for it all afternoon! Did he forget that he has parents at home?"

Father Luo glanced at the pots and pans that filled the kitchen stove. There were two layers of side dishes alone. He looked at the time and saw that it was almost 6:30 pm. It was long past the time for dinner at home.

No wonder Mother Luo stood on the balcony like a stone for half an hour.

Click—

The door lock rang, but Mother Luo didn't hear it. Father Luo knew that his son was back and didn't have time to put down the newspaper. He quickly went to inform Luo Feng to watch his words.

"Why are you back alone?" Father Luo saw that only Luo Feng was standing at the door, "Where's Xiao Ai? Your mother is still waiting for you to eat!"

Luo Feng was speechless. "Why don't you care about your son? Tingya was too tired today, so she went back to the orphanage first."

"Aiya, then your mom is going to get angry" Father Luo said regretfully, Luo Feng will definitely be beaten up tonight!

Only then did Luo Feng remember that he was supposed to bring Ai Tingya home for a gathering today. When he passed by the kitchen and saw the dishes, he knew that his mother must have been busy all afternoon.

"Quickly go say something nice to your mother." Father Luo pushed Luo Feng.

Unexpectedly, not only did Luo Feng not feel any danger, he raised his hand and pointed. "Dad, go!"

Father Luo choked.

Not only did this kid return late today, but he also dared to command me around!

Don't think that you can be lawless just because you're the top scorer. You get all gleeful if I don't hit you for three days!

Father Luo looked around and realized that the belt was the most pleasing to the eye.

He had to teach this kid a lesson!

"Sit there!" Father Luo said sternly.

Unexpectedly, Luo Feng calmly took out a car key from his pocket and waved it in front of Father Luo.

The key was like a hypnotic pocket watch. It shook Father Luo into a daze in a few moves. He swallowed and said, "This isn't a model, right?"

Luo Feng pointed at the balcony, gesturing for Father Luo to take a look. 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝒏𝙤𝒗𝒆𝒍．𝒄𝙤𝙢

Father Luo rushed to the balcony and squeezed his way past Mother Luo without another word. He heard a brand new Lincoln sedan outside. The temporary driver in a suit swept away the dust on the roof and smiled and bowed to Luo Feng's window before leaving.

"Son, is this really our car?" Father Luo was drooling.

Luo Feng placed the car key in Father Luo's hand: "Dad! Let's go out and try!"

"Aiyo, haha!" Father Luo ran out happily with it. He touched the engine lovingly with both hands and exclaimed repeatedly.

He got into the car and turned the key. He was so happy that he almost cheered when he heard the rumbling engine.

Uncle Ge, who was walking, saw this scene and greeted, "Old Luo, is this yours?"

"My son bought it for me!" Father Luo's face lit up, and the corners of his mouth were about to reach the back of his head.

Uncle Ge widened his eyes in surprise and kept giving him a thumbs up: "Impressive, impressive! Your Luo Feng is too promising"

Coincidentally, Luo Feng bumped into Father Luo, who was glowing with health when he was pulling his mother out to see the car.

"Son, how much did this car cost?" Father Luo asked in front of Uncle Ge as if he was shocked.

Luo Feng said calmly, "About 200,000 yuan after all the procedures are completed."

This time, not only Uncle Ge, but Father Luo was also shocked!

Most of the people in their neighborhood worked in the same factory. They had known each other for more than ten years and had a rough understanding of each other's family situation.

The combined salary of Mr. and Mrs. Luo was about 5,000 yuan a month. In this era of slow economic development, it was already considered above average. Some people in the neighborhood could not compare to them.

For working-class people, 200,000 yuan would have to be saved for four years without eating, drinking, or spending.

Every time Father Luo wanted to buy a car, he would give up when he saw the pitiful amount of savings he had at home.

"Son, where did you get so much money?" Father Luo carefully closed the car door, feeling a little afraid.

Even though the money that Luo Feng invested in and returned was clear on the books, it was unclear in front of his parents. Therefore, even though he was a millionaire previously, he didn't dare to add anything big to his family.

It was different now. He had a milk tea shop with very good business and didn't have to think about how to explain the source of the money.

"I earned it from the milk tea shop. Otherwise, where else would it come from?" Luo Feng said confidently.

"Is it that profitable?" Mother Luo was surprised.

How could a small drink be so powerful? It had only been open for a short time, but it could earn hundreds of thousands of yuan?

The couple did not have much business acumen and found it unbelievable.

Luo Feng was too good at fooling people in this aspect. "Of course, stress in the third year of high school is very high. It's already a consensus for the students to relax after class. Moreover, business is booming every day with Tingya and me as the signboard. I sold all the ingredients in the shop today, so I returned home so late."

Father Luo burst into tears.

He originally thought that he would have to work hard to accumulate enough money for Luo Feng's university tuition fees and give him money to marry a wife.

Now that the matter had been perfectly resolved, not only could he retire in advance, he could also live a rich life by relying on food! Why did he encounter such a good thing?!

"Good son! Good son!" Father Luo was so touched that tears streamed down his face. "You've really made a name for yourself. I'm really proud of you!"

Father Luo hugged Luo Feng for a long time, he was so happy that he was incoherent. Mother Luo's eyes were also filled with tears.

When Uncle Ge, the neighbor, saw this, he was also touched to the point of tears. He was very envious of the Luo couple. Why, there really was a golden phoenix flying out of the henhouse!

"Alright, alright, let's go in and eat! I've been hungry for a long time" Luo Feng held his mother with his left hand and his father with his right. The family of three sat together for a long time and happily ate a sumptuous dinner.

After eating and drinking their fill, Luo Feng and Father Luo sat on the sofa watching TV while Mother Luo cleaned up in the kitchen.

...

The ceramic bowls clanged as if there was a manic ceramic bowl band in the kitchen. The sound was so loud that it drowned out the volume of the television.

His many years of life experience told Father Luo that this matter was not simple!

"Son, go to the kitchen and see your mother. She seems very unhappy," Father Luo egged him on.

"Father, go." Luo Feng's aura was very strong.

The father and son looked at each other, neither moving their butts.

"What's wrong, Mom? Weren't you eating happily just now? Why are you suddenly unhappy? Did you have too many bowls?"

"No, according to my years of experience, your mother is most likely jealous!"

87 Must You Wear The Few Catties Of Gold Ornaments Out?

"Your mother must be jealous!" Father Luo was very sure of his judgment.

They had been husband and wife for many years after all. With just a look from his wife, Father Luo could immediately read both the surface and deep meaning. He could also resolve it perfectly before his wife got angry.

He continued to analyze, "Listen carefully to the pattern of the bowl's collision. Isn't it rough with a hint of caution? The volume of this sound is just enough to express your anger. Let us hear the anomaly without causing any harm to the bowl itself!"

Luo Feng didn't understand, but he felt that it was awesome. He nodded blankly. "So that's what it means."

Father Luo said confidently, "Your mother must be jealous of me. You bought me such a big gift but she didn't have anything. It must be a little unfair. Speaking of which, have you prepared something for your mother?"

Father Luo estimated that Luo Feng had spent most of his money on a 200,000 yuan car. On one hand, he was a little happy about his son's preference, but on the other hand, he was worried that his wife would be sad.

Hence, he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet. "Do you have no money? I'll sponsor you."

Luo Feng said suspiciously, "Don't you give all your money to Mom every month? Where did you get the money?"

"All mature men have a small stash. Don't tell your mother." Mr. Luo lowered his voice and said mysteriously.

How could Luo Feng bear to use the money his father dug out from between his teeth? "Forget it, keep the money. The gift I bought will be here soon."

Father Luo looked out of the window suspiciously. It was already dark. Other than Santa Claus, who else would send gifts to his door at night?

…

In the kitchen.

Mother Luo faced the bowls in the sink and reached into the water like she was practicing Iron Palm. She stirred the bowls and chopsticks that were soaked in water as if she had a grudge against the bowls.

"Little brat, you don't think about me at all!" Mother Luo muttered like a pufferfish, her stomach filled with anger.

She was originally very happy, thinking that she would be able to drive to work tomorrow. She could already imagine the envious gazes of her sisters who were dancing square dance together.

However, Mother Luo came back to her senses after dinner, when she cleared the table and saw father and son chatting and watching television.

Why weren't there any gifts for her?!

Not only that, but she also had to serve the two of them. Was it easy for her? There should at least be some show of appreciation even if she didn't say anything. It wasn't like she wanted something that was worth hundreds of thousands!

She doted on this son for nothing!

The more Mother Luo thought about it, the angrier she became. She stirred the bowl even harder, almost catching up to the washing machine.

Ding dong—

At this moment, the doorbell rang.

Luo Feng was the first to run to the door. When he opened the door, he saw a man and a woman. They were dressed appropriately in business attire and were smiling at Luo Feng.

"Hello, are you Mr. Luo Feng?" The woman's voice was very gentle.

"I am."

"Hello, this is the set you have customized. Please check it." The woman handed over the red paper bag with both hands. The golden auspicious bag looked very high-end.

Luo Feng weighed it. "No need. I trust your shop."

"Thank you for your trust, please sign over." The woman took out a signed receipt from Long Feng Xiang Jewelry. After Luo Feng signed it, the two of them bowed 90 degrees. "Thank you for patronizing us. I wish you a happy life. Goodbye."

Luo Feng really liked their efficient and capable methods. It really saved him a lot of trouble.

After sending the two of them off, he turned with the bag and saw Mother Luo sticking her head out of the kitchen. Mother Luo glared at him resentfully as soon as their eyes met before returning to the kitchen.

When Father Luo saw this, he smiled helplessly.

Luo Feng carried the bag into the kitchen and said, "Mom, let me show you something."

Mother Luo was delighted, but she did not want to make it so obvious. She continued to wash her bowl and pretended not to hear.

"Mom, you really don't want to take a look?" Luo Feng smiled.

"What's there to see?" Mother Luo snapped. "Don't block me here. Get out, get out."

Luo Feng opened the box seeing how proud his mother was.

Mother Luo Luo felt a golden light behind her, as if she had entered the world of Buddha. Then, a two-finger-wide bracelet rolled to her feet.

"Ah!" Mother Luo screamed in shock. She was even more excited than when she saw the Buddha appear.

"I didn't expect it to be so heavy. I didn't hold it properly." Luo Feng apologized as he picked it up. This custom-made thing was a little heavy, so he didn't hold it properly. 𝑏𝘦𝑑𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"Son, get out of the way. Let me do this kind of tiring work!"

Mother Luo quickly wiped the water off her hands and picked up the big golden bracelet. The weight almost made her cry.

"How heavy is this bracelet?" Mother Luo asked.

"About one catty." Luo Feng replied.

"It's very expensive now, right? How much is a gram?"

"It's pure gold. I didn't bargain since there was a discount the more I bought."

Mother Luo held the bracelet and checked repeatedly to see if it was broken or scratched.

She had to bargain for half an hour to buy a catty of vegetables, but her son actually bought a catty of gold without bargaining! She pinched the meat on her face hard to confirm that she was not dreaming.

Luo Feng picked up the other gold jewelry that fell, taking advantage of the time his mother took to cherish the bracelet.

The earrings, necklace, ring, pendant, and bracelet were all custom-made into one set.

Luo Feng knew that his mother was a practical person, so the amount of gold he gave her was also worth their weight. The value of this set of gold jewelry as a collection was far more valuable than wearing it out because it was a little heavy.

"Mom, this is for you. You've worked hard all these years," smiled Luo Feng.

Mother Luo felt a lump in her throat, but she suddenly remembered that this was not the time to cry. She rushed into the living room with the box and showed her new gift to her husband.

Luo Feng smiled helplessly and walked out of the kitchen. "Mom, these things are a little heavy, especially the earrings. Your ears might not be able to withstand it, you…"

...

The golden light shining from her body almost blinded Luo Feng's eyes before he even finished speaking. She used her actions to tell him that his mother was omnipotent!

She really hung a few catties of gold on herself!

"Xiao Tian, let's go to the park to square dance tomorrow?"

"Aiya, Little Li, are you free tomorrow night to come to the park for a gathering?"

"Shanshan, we haven't seen each other in a long time. Let's go shopping in the park tomorrow. Hahaha, it's settled, yeah?"

Mother Luo was wearing gold jewelry while calling her friends and could not stop being so happy.

Luo Feng could hear the sound of cars starting up outside every morning at 6:30 am sharp, from then on.

Mr. and Mrs. Luo went to work at nine o'clock. The journey to work only took 20 minutes but the two of them had to drive around for more than an hour. When they saw familiar faces across the street, they had to go up and greet them.

Luo Mu went out to plaza dance at 6pm sharp, and she had to be fully armed. Five layers of gold accessories was not a small number. Luo Feng felt tired just looking at it.

Was she going out to square dance or to carry weights for training?

Over the next few days, Luo Feng was surprised to discover that his mother's stubborn weight had actually dropped by a few catties!

...

"Mom, isn't your amount of exercise a little too much?" Luo Feng's heart ached.

Mother Luo was exceptionally persistent. "I've lost a few catties. I would be blown away by the wind if I don't use gold to suppress my weight!"

Luo Feng was speechless. Well, whatever, as long as his mother was happy.

88 Luo Feng, You Are The Pride of Our Entire Extended Family!

The news of Luo Feng becoming the top scholar spread like a typhoon to all the relatives on both sides of his parents. The calls at home never stopped. Often, another relative called again just as he said goodbye to one relative.

It was seamless, as if they had discussed it with the stopwatch.

Father and Mother Luo did not want to hold a school promotion banquet because it was too troublesome.

The two of them had followed the relocated factory from their hometown to Crown City. Their relatives and friends were basically all still in their hometown. It was really unnecessary to let them come for a meal. Moreover, the summer holidays were the hottest time of the year.

Originally, they wanted to invite their relatives to gather when they returned to their hometown for the new year. However, their relatives felt that this was a rare joyous occasion. They had to hold it! They had to!

Luo Feng's Eldest Uncle even said that if Father and Mother Luo didn't do it, he would do it himself.

Eldest Uncle was the eldest brother in the family. Father Luo did not dare to disobey, so he sent invitations to his relatives to come to Crown City.

At the entrance of the station, Father Luo leaned against the car and said, "Son, do you think my posture is handsome?"

"Be careful of your waist at your age." Luo Feng saw that his father was wringing like a fried dough twist and didn't know what to say.

Ads by Pubfuture

"I haven't seen your Eldest Uncle in many years. Of course I have to show him my best." Father Luo chuckled and changed his posture again. He supported his head with one hand and his waist with the other, looking like a big bear that had just eaten its fill. 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝙣𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒏𝙚𝙩

His Eldest Uncle was more than 10 years older than Father Luo. In the past, Luo Feng's grandparents were busy farming and spent most of their time in the fields. The children at home relied on his Eldest Uncle to feed them. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was half a father.

Even though Father Luo was middle-aged, his Eldest Uncle would habitually nag when the two brothers met. Therefore, Father Luo especially wanted to show his eldest brother that he was doing very well!

"Dad, Eldest Uncle and the others are over there!" Luo Feng pointed at the exit. A man who looked a little like Father Luo walked out of the station with a bouncing girl beside him.

"Cousin! Third Uncle!"

The girl also saw them. She bounced over like an agile suddenly stopped when she rushed in front of Luo Feng.

Then, she immediately retracted her outstretched arms and said warily, "Who are you?"

"I'm your Elder Brother!" Luo Feng smiled. "It's been a while since we last met, and Xiaorui has grown so tall that I almost can't recognize her."

Luo Xiaorui roared in her heart. I didn't recognize you! It was Luo Feng from afar just now. Why did he become a handsome man up close? The kind that could cause a girl to blush when their eyes meet!

Luo Feng's facial features didn't change much, but his entire temperament was confident and calm. He didn't seem like a student.

Eldest Uncle walked up and patted his daughter's head. "Didn't you say you wanted to give Cousin a big hug in the car just now? Why aren't you hugging him anymore?"

Luo Xiaorui hid behind her father with mixed feelings. She wanted to hug her cousin, who had been mischievous with her since she was young. She really did not dare to reach out to this steady handsome man!

"Hahaha, you finally know how to be shy." Luo Feng laughed.

"This girl is really…" Uncle looked at his daughter dotingly, then looked at Luo Feng.

He took a deep breath and sighed at Luo Feng's change. It was as if he had become a different person from the inside out!

Eldest Uncle patted Luo Feng's arm and realized that the young man was very strong: "Good! Good! Eldest Uncle is really happy for you!"

He took out two red packets from his pocket as he spoke. The thickness was so obvious that the edges almost burst. "Here! This is a token of appreciation from Eldest Uncle and your Elder Brother Yan. Your sister-in-law is pregnant and it's not convenient for her to move around, so she asked me to give this to you."

His Eldest Uncle had two children. His eldest son was already an adult and had a family. His youngest daughter, Luo Xiaorui, was still in her second year of high school.

"No, no!" Luo Feng pushed the red packet back, "This is too much, I can't accept it!"

"What's there to be afraid of!" Eldest Uncle stuffed the red packet into Luo Feng's arms and said firmly, "Your outstanding results are the pride of our family. I'll be angry if you don't take it!"

Luo Xiaorui chimed in, "That's right, Big Brother. Take it!"

If it was in the past, she would definitely smile and ask Luo Feng to give her half. However, Luo Feng had become someone she didn't dare to approach. Instead, he felt a little distant.

Luo Feng helplessly accepted: "Alright, thank you Eldest Uncle."

The three of them chatted and laughed, not seeing Father Luo at all. Finally, his eldest brother noticed him before his arm went numb.

"Big Brother, get in the car first. It's almost time to eat," Father Luo greeted.

The few of them got into the car. Halfway through, Eldest Uncle finally noticed the interior of the car. He touched it and said, "This car looks new. Why didn't I hear you mention it?"

"Little Feng bought it and received it a few days ago so I didn't have the time to tell you." Father Luo couldn't help but smile.

Eldest Uncle had heard about the milk tea shop and praised Luo Feng even more, "Little Feng will definitely be the most promising child in our family in the future. Third brother, you taught him well!"

Father Luo kept nodding and smiling, but he felt that he did not contribute much to this matter. It seemed that Ai Tingya's contribution was greater.

Luo Xiaorui drooled as she listened. A girl her age was milk tea's target customer. She was too embarrassed to tell Luo Feng, so she had mixed feelings.

After a while, the car stopped at the entrance of the hotel.

Father Luo still had to pick up the others, so Luo Feng led the two of them upstairs.

A huge banner hung at the top of the 3rd floor hall: "Luo Feng and Ai Tingya's school promotion banquet".

Luo Xiaorui stared at the banner and felt that it was a little strange. Why didn't it look like a school promotion banquet? It looked more like an engagement party? Who was this Ai Tingya?

She pushed the door open and entered. All 30 tables had been reserved. Luo Xiaorui's mouth fell open. She had never eaten such a lively meal.

Luo Feng's classmates and teachers alone took up five tables. His relatives and friends chatted happily, and it was even more lively than the New Year!

Luo Feng arranged for his uncle and cousin to sit down before rushing to greet the others.

Mother Luo called out to her colleagues and smiled from ear to ear. The moment she saw Luo Feng, she pulled him and said, "Have you seen Tingya? Why haven't I seen her?"

"She should be greeting the students." Luo Feng said.

Mother Luo had long treated Ai Tingya as family. She thought that no one would hold a banquet for her in the orphanage, so she simply held it for both of them together.

The four of them had discussed that Father Luo would be in charge of picking them up, Mother Luo would be in charge of greeting her relatives and friends, and Ai Tingya would be in charge of greeting her classmates and teachers before the meeting. Luo Feng, on the other hand, was flexible and would go wherever there was a need for someone to be there.

Luo Feng thought that his mother had something to say to her, so he said, "Go greet them first, I'll go find her."

He walked through the crowd to the innermost table and saw Ai Tingya talking to a girl in her class. She was wearing a light green dress today and looked very delicate and beautiful. The male students who were already sitting down were stunned.

Luo Feng walked over and pulled her back. "Tingya, my mom is looking for you. Come over."

...

89 Is This A School Advancement Banquet Or An Engagement Party?

Ai Tingya found Mother Luo and thought that she had something to tell her. Unexpectedly, Mother Luo suddenly pulled her to a table.

"Little Li, this is the Tingya I often tell you about." Mother Luo explained to a middle-aged woman. Then, she said to Ai Tingya, "This is Auntie's good friend. Call her Auntie Li."

Ai Tingya said obediently, "Hello, Auntie Li!"

Auntie Li sized up Ai Tingya from head to toe and suddenly understood why Mother Luo talked about her every day. She was indeed a rare beautiful girl.

"She's so good-looking. No wonder Sister Luo keeps mentioning Xiao Ai," Auntie Li said. "Congratulations, Sister Luo. Your son is so promising and the daughter-in-law he found is so beautiful!"

Mother Luo smiled from ear to ear. "Little Li, you're so good at talking. Tingya, thank Auntie Li."

"Thank you, Auntie Li." Ai Tingya smiled.

After Mother Luo finished introducing them at this table, she pulled Ai Tingya to the next table.

"This is Little Feng's Aunt. Tingya, follow Little Feng and call her Aunt." Mother Luo pulled Ai Tingya and taught her how to call people one by one.

Ai Tingya was also very obedient and gentle.

Her aunt seemed to have thought about it and teased, "Aiyo, whose daughter is this? She looks so refined."

Mother Luo said, "Of course she's mine. Isn't she beautiful? Let me tell you, our Tingya isn't just beautiful. She's gentle and good at studying. In the beginning, she was the one who tutored Little Feng, which made my son interested in learning."

Then, he became the top scorer as soon as he was interested?

The relatives at the table were all shocked. If he had a bumper harvest of studies and love, wouldn't he be able to get married immediately after graduating from university? Did that mean she would be able to have grandchildren in a few years?

In the minds of the older generation, Father and Mother Luo had already reached the peak of their lives.

Ai Tingya lowered her head slightly. Mother Luos words praised her for being too perfect and she was a little embarrassed.

The relatives at the other tables who had yet to be introduced also pricked up their ears, listening to Mother Luo praise how good Tingya was and how compatible she was with her son.

The relatives could not help but wonder if this was a school promotion banquet or an engagement ceremony.

Mother Luo pulled Ai Tingya from one table to another. Luo Feng's family had a lot of relatives, and he had invited many old neighbors. Ai Tingya's mouth went dry just by calling them.

On the other hand, Mother Luo did not repeat the words she used to praise Ai Tingya. She was eloquent, making Ai Tingya envious.

Finally, there was only one table left. Ai Tingya pulled Mother Luo and said shyly, "Auntie, stop praising me. I'm actually not that…"

"Don't spout nonsense," Mother Luo reminded. "You're like this in Auntie's eyes! Don't belittle yourself, understand? Little Feng is a boy. It's tougher to suppress him more to allow him to gain in hardness. You're a girl. You have to be confident. Auntie is telling the truth, understand?"

Ai Tingya nodded vigorously, indicating that she understood.

Actually, she also understood that Mother Luo was worried that she would be too lonely. She did not know most of the guests who came today and could only circle around her schoolmates after all.

Mother Luo was afraid that Ai Tingya would be neglected, and she would have to get to know her relatives sooner or later. She might as well make a dazzling appearance at the school promotion banquet!

She pulled Ai Tingya to the last table and a pair of curious eyes glued to Ai Tingya.

Luo Xiaorui had long noticed Ai Tingya. Teenagers were always especially concerned about looks. They could not help but take a few more glances at beautiful ladies.

What surprised her even more was that Luo Xiaorui could smell gossip as she watched Luo Feng's mother pull her sister around.

"Tingya, this is Eldest Uncle."

"This is Second Aunt, and this is Second Uncle."

"This is your younger cousin."

Mother Luo introduced them one by one, and Ai Tingya greeted them politely. Because Mother Luo's tone of introducing Ai Tingya was too similar to introducing a daughter-in-law, everyone looked at each other and smiled tacitly.

"Come, I've prepared a red packet for you. I wish you success in your studies and have children soon!" Second Uncle handed them a thick red packet.

Second Aunt quickly lectured the old man, "The two children are still studying. Why would they give birth to children? They will definitely be united forever!"

"Sister-in-law knows best! Hahaha!" Mother Luo could not stop laughing. She happily stuffed the red packet into Ai Tingya's bag.

Ai Tingya's face was red, but she was very happy because she had been recognized by Luo Feng's family.

After a round of greetings, Mother Luo led Ai Tingya to greet the others.

Ai Tingya felt a pair of eyes staring at her from behind. When she looked over, she realized that it was the girl who was sitting with Luo Feng's uncle just now. She remembered that it was Luo Feng's cousin.

"You're Xiaorui, right?" Ai Tingya smiled and held Luo Xiaorui's hand.

"Sister, how do you know my name?" Xiaorui said in surprise. She had no resistance to beautiful people and had a natural sense of reverence. She was too embarrassed to look straight at Ai Tingya.

"Luo Feng told me about his beautiful cousin"

"Brother Feng would describe me like that?" Luo Xiaorui naturally thought of how Luo Feng could always accurately throw mud at her face when she was young. After confirming that this was not something he could say, she shook her head and said, "Sister, you're the beautiful one!"

"Thank you for the compliment."

"By the way, Sister." Luo Xiaorui's gossipy soul burned. "Are you really dating my brother?"

"Yes."

"How long have you been together?"

"The confession was during the Oath-Taking Rally and we officially got together after the results were out."

Luo Xiaorui's eyes widened. She didn't expect Luo Feng to not only become more handsome, but also become bolder. He even dared to date in his third year of high school and confess at the Oath-Taking Rally?

This method was too wild!

"Wow! I didn't know my brother was so bold!"

"I was the one who confessed to your brother first in front of the entire school," Ai Tingya said shyly.

Luo Xiaorui was even more shocked. It was actually the beautiful lady who confessed first!

She looked at Ai Tingya with more admiration. She felt that Ai Tingya was decisive and brave. She was too valiant! She was simply a role model for learning! 𝐛𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝐦

Thinking about how Luo Feng used to bully her, a question arose in Luo Xiaorui's mind: "Sister, what exactly do you like about my brother?"

...

"Your brother is… He's very good."

"Specifically?"

"Specifically, he's very good in all aspects!"

Luo Xiaorui could not understand why Ai Tingya was so sincere and sweet!

"Are you two badmouthing me?"

Luo Feng walked over at some point and placed his hand on Luo Xiaorui's head. Then, he told her to be obedient while making a new chicken nest-like hairdo for her.

Luo Xiaorui jumped up to hit Luo Feng, but Luo Feng dodged too quickly. After missing, she turned to Ai Tingya and complained, "Sister, look, my brother likes to bully people!"

"How did I bully you" laughed Luo Feng, "This hairstyle suits you more"

Luo Xiaorui clenched her fists and chased after Luo Feng. After fooling around for a while, she felt that the sense of alienation was gone again. No matter how handsome Luo Feng became, they were still intimate cousins.

More importantly, she now had a beautiful sister-in-law.

90 Arriving At University, The Phone Number The Senior Left Behind

The school promotion banquet could be said to be the liveliest scene Luo Feng had seen in his two lifetimes. Other than a few relatives who were not present for special reasons, the others who should have come were all here. Even the distant relatives that Luo Feng's parents did not remember traveled thousands of kilometers to send their blessings.

After all, being the top scorer of the college entrance examination with more than 700 points was an honor that could be written on the family tree!

The family, relatives, and friends gathered together and finished their meal happily.

Father Luo even took out his treasured vault and brought his relatives who were not in a hurry to go home around Crown City to buy some local specialties for them.

!

Luo Xiaorui hovered around Ai Tingya every day during the few days she stayed in Crown City.

She would follow Ai Tingya around if Ai Tingya came to look for Luo Feng. If Ai Tingya did not come to look for Luo Feng, she would chase her to the orphanage.

She even followed Ai Tingya to the milk tea shop to help.

The advantage of following the lady boss was that she could drink milk tea filled to the brim with ingredients as she pleased. A cup of Burning Immortal Grass could be used as Eight Treasures Congee. Luo Xiaorui's burps smell like milk.

She had never drunk such delicious milk tea before. It made her want to transfer to Crown City and be with milk tea forever.

Happy times were always short.

A few days later, Eldest Uncle left Crown City with Luo Xiaorui. Luo Feng and Ai Tingya also had to prepare to go to university.

The only thing that made things difficult for them was what to do with the first Good Me Milk Tea Shop. After all, it was the first shop that they had personally managed. Luo Feng and Ai Tingya still had deep feelings for it.

Lu Zhao went to the new shop in Nanlin City. Dean Du was already busy with the orphanage alone. It was slightly difficult for the other children to be fully in charge of a shop.

The two of them could not find a suitable person to replace them at the last minute. In the end, after careful consideration, they decided to entrust it to Father and Mother Luo.

During the last period of the summer vacation, the two of them were handing over the matters of the milk tea shop and familiarizing Father and Mother Luo with the situation in the shop other than preparing for university life.

They also instructed Xiao Fei and the others to contact Father and Mother Luo if there was any trouble that they could not resolve.

Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, the summer vacation was over. Luo Feng and Ai Tingya were about to officially enter the university campus.

Crown City Station.

Mother Luo's eyes were red. She held Ai Tingya's hand reluctantly and said, "Call me if you miss me. Tell me if Little Feng bullies you. I'll teach him a lesson!"

Ai Tingya felt like crying.

Dean Du had something on today and could not come. Xiao Fei and the others had gone to school in advance. Fortunately, Father and Mother Luo came to send her off. Otherwise, Ai Tingya would really be sad.

"Thank you, Auntie. We'll definitely be fine," Ai Tingya sobbed.

Mother Luo took out a bag of snacks from her pocket and placed it on Ai Tingya's luggage. "Eat them on the way. They're all your favorites."

"Thank you, Auntie. I'll definitely finish them," Ai Tingya said gratefully. In the past, she rarely had the chance to eat snacks, and no one would specially prepare them for her.

Mother Luo looked at the bags of snacks and felt that they were too little. "There are still two bags of snacks in the trunk. Go and pack some for Tingya." She said to Father Luo, worried that the two children would not have enough to eat on the way.

Luo Feng hurriedly pulled Father Luo back. "No, no, no. These snacks are enough. We won't be able to bring them with us if there's more."

"Boohoo!" Mother Luo became even sadder upon hearing that they were leaving. She reminded Luo Feng with tears streaming down her face, "The two of you can take care of each other outside. Call us whenever you are free. If you don't have money…"

Mother Luo thought for a moment. Luo Feng was even richer than them now. She changed the topic and said, "Take good care of yourself."

Luo Feng laughed and went forward to hug his sobbing mother. He patted her back and said, "We'll get going."

The two of them turned around and walked into the ticket barrier. Mother Luo suddenly shouted, "Feng, Tingya is weak. Help her carry her luggage."

"…Alright." Luo Feng held a box in each hand and led Ai Tingya into the car.

They had to take a car to Nanlin City first, then take a plane to the city where the school was, and finally take a car to report to the school. Therefore, Luo Feng would bring as little luggage as possible.

In his previous life, he had listened to Mother Luo. From the big cotton mattress to the small toothbrush and toothpaste, they were all brought from home. There were a total of four to five bags of luggage, it wasn't like going to school, but rather, moving house.

Other freshmen only had one senior accompanying them, but he had two to three seniors helping him move things. Forget about social death, Luo Feng finally realized sadly that the school sold everything.

Of course, he would travel light when he went out. Luo Feng did not lack money, so it was much easier to buy them directly.

Therefore, when Mother Luo brought him the washbasin last night, Luo Feng was unwilling to take it no matter what. He also stopped his mother from stuffing snacks into his box.

Luo Feng had also helped pack Ai Tingya's luggage.

She was simply a replica of Luo Feng in her previous life. She wished she could move the entire room to university. However, she did not have many things to begin with. Luo Feng picked and picked, and a small suitcase filled everything.

The two of them finally arrived at Oxford at three in the afternoon after taking the flight and another car.

Luo Feng got out of the car and looked at the ancient campus of the ancient castle, feeling the ancient charm of history. In his previous life, he probably never dreamed that he could study in such a good school.

Temporary tents were set up around the school gate, and the names of each department were written beside each tent.

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya found the Finance Faculty. After the blonde senior helped them with their registration, another senior led them to the dormitory building.

The senior looked at their numbers and was a little surprised. It was actually a dormitory that Professor Jing had applied for for them alone! Originally, there were three buildings between the male and female dormitories of the Finance Department, but their dormitories were next to each other.

This relationship was self-evident. The senior looked at Luo Feng regretfully.

She had wanted to develop a relationship with her ignorant and cute junior. It was not easy for a handsome boy to come, but he was already taken.

The senior sighed secretly and held her tears for her youth that she did not know how long she would have to waste.

As their dormitory buildings were facing each other, the senior sent Ai Tingya upstairs first while Luo Feng waited downstairs.

After a while, the senior went downstairs and said, "Let's go. The two of you are so lucky. The dormitory you were assigned to is facing each other. You can see each other when you walk to the balcony."

How could the senior not know that this was deliberately arranged? She paid more attention to Luo Feng and Ai Tingya.

Luo Feng's dormitory was on the third floor. There were four people in one dormitory. They went to bed and sat on the table. It was a mixed dormitory. The four of them had different majors. When Luo Feng arrived, the other three had already chosen their beds. Only the bed near the window was still empty.

The senior helped Luo Feng push his luggage to the bed and said, "If you forgot anything, there's something in the school supermarket. If you have anything you want to ask, you can call me directly."

With that, the senior took out a piece of paper with a phone number on it and placed it on the table. She waved at Luo Feng and left the dormitory.

Luo Feng felt that a good university was indeed different. In the half-baked university he attended in his previous life, his seniors would even collude with the small shops outside to trick new students to buy things.

"Senior is so friendly." Luo Feng sighed.

...

A faint voice suddenly came from the bed beside him. "Maybe she's just being kind to you."

91 You're Still The Best After Much Comparison!

Only then did Luo Feng realize that the other three people in the dormitory had stopped what they were doing and were staring at the paper on his desk.

"Do you want it?" Luo Feng picked it up in a friendly manner.

"Hehe, brother, you're quite lucky with women." The brother on the bed beside him had a well-defined hairstyle. His hair was so well-defined that even a level-eight typhoon would not be able to blow it away. He dressed fashionably and looked like an exquisite young master.

He was the first to walk over and shake Luo Feng's hand. "My name is Yang Bo, I'm studying law."

Luo Feng said, "Luo Feng, finance."

A little fatty beside him said, "I'm studying mathematics. My name is Hao Yingqiang."

The last person in the dormitory was a foreigner. He introduced himself in fluent Chinese. "My name is Ali Myron. You can call me Ali. My major is classical literature and modern languages."

After introducing themselves, the three of them continued to smile at the slip with the phone number.

"Brother, do you understand why she left you her number?" Yang Bo went to Luo Feng's side and looked at the note. He could even smell a faint fragrance. "There will be a welcome party after the military training. You can look for her as your dance partner!"

Ads by Pubfuture

Luo Feng was about to say that he had a girlfriend when Ali smiled and said, "Senior sent us to the dormitory too. We didn't get a call."

"Hehe." Hao Yingqiang shrunk his neck and laughed.

Phone numbers were meaningless to Luo Feng. If he really wanted to dance, he would be with Ai Tingya, so he put the note aside.

Yang Bo put his hands in his pockets and stood in the middle of the dormitory. "Let's talk about the Senior later. Let's talk about how we got into university."

The dormitory was a small organization. There would definitely be a person in charge. Yang Bo's family background should not be bad. He carried a little natural arrogance and was like a big brother, guiding everyone to chat.

Yang Bo introduced himself. "Originally, my parents wanted me to find a school near my house, but I was already tired of staying in Beijing, so I wanted to go out for an adventure. I studied like mad for a year and got in through the college entrance examination."

Yang Bo was quite famous for being able to get into Oxford after a year of hardcore studying. This also meant that his family must have spent a lot of manpower and resources.

Yang Bo was a little proud when speaking of Beijing.

"I'm a student guaranteed by the school." Hao Yingqiang pushed his glasses up his nose bridge. He was also very proud of his results.

Ali was from another country, so the steps of the examination were different from the other three. "I completed the ACT test in my Third High School and applied to Oxford University in my fourth year. There were some happenings then. You shouldn't be interested. It's been a very busy three years." 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝑙．𝑜𝑟𝘨

After the three of them finished speaking, they looked at Luo Feng in unison.

Luo Feng kept a low profile and said, "I took the college entrance examination and became the top scorer. I chose Oxford because the school's finance school is not bad."

Ali might not know the exact situation, but Yang Bo and Hao Yingqiang understood the value of the top scorer of the college entrance examination. They looked at each other and felt that Luo Feng was still the best in terms of results.

Hao Yingqiang was guaranteed admission and did not need to take the college entrance examination, so he did not care much.

On the other hand, Yang Bo wanted to be the boss of the dormitory. He would not give up just because of his results. "Actually, a few female students in the second year of high school chased after me and insisted on dating me. I had to be entangled with them and get distracted."

Hao Yingqiang revealed a gossipy smile. "Did you accept any of them then?"

"Of course." Yang Bo lowered his head and smiled. "I reluctantly dated a girl for a year in order not to leave any regrets for my youth. She's good in every way. She's gentle and obedient, but she's focused all her attention on me, causing her results to decline severely. She's repeating her studies now."

"Wow, you have a girlfriend, yet you're still thinking about your senior. You're fickle-minded," Hao Yingqiang joked.

Yang Boyi said sternly, "Of course not. I asked her to take the exam well in order not to delay her. We'll get back together if she can get into Oxford and I'm still single at that time. We definitely have to give her some hope, right?"

In other words, too bad if Yang Bo had a partner by then.

The other three understood what he meant, but Luo Feng still realized that Hao Yingqiang and Ali were looking at him with admiration.

"That's great." Hao Yingqiang had a strong yearning for love. "I studied hard for three years in high school. I didn't even talk to the girls in my class."

"I've been chasing a girl. It's a pity she doesn't like me." Ali chimed in.

The two of them had ugly expressions on their faces. Love made the three of them resonate strangely. For a moment, they did not have the time to ask Luo Feng about his love history.

At this moment, a delicate female voice sounded from outside the door.

"Luo Feng, are you done packing?" Ai Tingya stuck her head out and saw that the others in the dormitory were slightly nervous.

The dormitory was instantly silent. The three boys widened their eyes and glared at Ai Tingya.

Luo Feng walked over and pulled Ai Tingya over. "Let me introduce you. This is my girlfriend, Ai Tingya. We were classmates in high school."

The three of them waved at Ai Tingya with infatuated smiles.

Luo Feng said to Ai Tingya, "Tingya, this is Yang Bo. He's Hao Yingqiang. That foreign student is Ali Myron."

Ai Tingya smiled and blew past the three of them like a spring breeze in March. "Hello, I have to trouble you to guide my Luo Feng along."

"No, no, you're too polite." Yang Bo subconsciously lowered his voice. He was still talking confidently just now, but now he seemed a little shy.

Yang Bo originally felt that his high school life was very exciting and that his studies and love were both fruitful. However, he realized that not only were his results inferior to Luo Feng's, his girlfriend was also inferior to Luo Feng's girlfriend after comparison!

He was only awesome for a short while while Luo Feng had been awesome from beginning to end.

"Student Ai, don't worry. In the future, Brother Luo will be my biological brother!" Hao Yingqiang said as if they were close friends. In the future, he would have to rely on Luo Feng's guidance to get rid of his single status.

Ali only nodded. Luo Feng's happy appearance reminded him of the girls he had wooed over the years. He could not help but feel sad.

Ai Tingya covered her mouth and chuckled. "Luo Feng, your roommates are so interesting."

Luo Feng glanced at the three shy people. "Yes, it's quite interesting."

Ai Tingya said to the three of them, "The two of us are going down to buy something. Do you need anything? Luo Feng can bring it back for you."

"No, no, no." The three of them shook their heads and waved their hands. They didn't want to trouble the beauty and her boyfriend on their first meeting.

After the two of them left the dormitory, the three of them lay on the door frame and stared at the departing figure with admiration.

Hao Yingqiang grabbed the door frame and gritted his teeth. "Oh my god, Luo Feng is so lucky to have a girlfriend who can attend university together!"

The other two nodded repeatedly.

Even the arrogant Yang Bo could not help but sigh. "Why would I go to university if my ex-girlfriend was as beautiful as her? I'll keep her and repeat school together."

Ali could not describe his feelings and could only sigh.

...

92 That Professor's Strange Attitude

Luo Feng could still get into the top scorer of the college entrance examination with a beautiful girlfriend by his side. It had to be said that his willpower was really strong! A sense of admiration rose in the three of them.

Hao Yingqiang took off his glasses and said solemnly, "You guys are better. I heard that our Mathematics Faculty has a higher ratio of males than females. There are so few girls that it's pitiful. The seniors who welcomed the new students were borrowed from other departments. I'm afraid I have no hope of getting a girlfriend."

Yang Bo thought about the Law Faculty and pinched his temples in distress. "The ratio of men and women in our faculty is not evenly distributed either. It's better than your Mathematics Faculty. However, you know that studying law is too stressful and rational. To be honest, it's not my cup of tea."

The two of them looked at Ali with hope. They felt that there should be many girls studying classical literature, and they were very poetic.

Ali sensed their gazes and looked at the ceiling gloomily. "I've always liked just this one girl. But if you want to get to know each other, I can help you on the front line."

The two of them felt that there was no hope seeing his state.

"Sigh, I'm so handsome but I didn't meet a girl I like. Am I really going to die alone?" Yang Bo sighed, feeling that his youth was about to dissipate.

"Bullsh*t! You have an ex-girlfriend who's working hard for you. I haven't even spoken much to a girl!" Hao Yingqiang was indignant. It was really difficult for human feelings to be connected.

"It's not too late to change courses." Ali made a seemingly pertinent suggestion, but it was actually very unreliable.

Ads by Pubfuture

Changing courses was not like buying vegetables. He could not just go like that.

The three of them looked at each other wordlessly, dejected.

At this moment, Ali suddenly remembered something important. "According to my experience wooing girls, there will be many beautiful girls around beautiful girls…"

The other two's eyes lit up. Thinking of Ai Tingya's gentle and confident appearance, the friends she made definitely wouldn't be bad!

The three of them made up their minds. Just because of Luo Feng, they were definitely going to be brothers! Their future happiness depended on him!

…

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya went to the school supermarket.

They did not bring anything else other than clothes and simple daily necessities. Each of them pushed a small cart and searched the shelves one by one.

From bedding sheets to washbasin lotion.

Ai Yi could tell that there was a list in front of her. She crossed out every item she bought. When she found the last soap she needed, she felt that she had bought enough.

"Luo Feng, let's go back. Where is he?"

Ai Tingya looked up and realized that Luo Feng, who had been pushing the cart just now, had disappeared.

She searched the vicinity and finally saw Luo Feng in the sanitary supplies area. She realized that he was looking down and studying the sanitary pads. Ai Tingya looked at her list and realized that she had indeed forgotten to write down the sanitary pads.

Her heart could not help but warm seeing how attentive Luo Feng was.

She walked to Luo Feng's side. Before she could speak, Luo Feng held a bag of sanitary pads in each hand and said, "I'll use this. You use this."

Ai Tingya felt her ears burning.

? Why would boys use sanitary pads?

Seeing how seriously Luo Feng was choosing, Ai Tingya suddenly felt a little afraid.

"This… you shouldn't… need it…" Ai Tingya stammered.

Luo Feng blinked and said, "Of course I can use it. It can be used as a shoe cushion during military training. It's soft and sweaty. This length should be enough."

This experience was summarized in his previous life.

At that time, the six people in their dormitory were all pure boys and were too embarrassed to buy them from the supermarket. Luo Feng borrowed two from Xing Miaomiao and was the supplier for the entire dormitory's sanitary pads.

The two of them looked at each other. Ai Tingya had mixed feelings. So she was thinking too much.

Ai Tingya took two packs of sanitary pads and looked at them. She said, "For foot pads, the cotton-soft ones will be more suitable than the dry ones. This one is a little thicker. Take 290mm. It might be a little longer."

Luo Feng nodded as he listened. So small sanitary pads were so particular.

"Then which one do you usually use?" Luo Feng whispered into Ai Tingya's ear.

Ai Tingya's ears heated up. She covered her ears and hid to the side. She said shyly, "I'm not telling you!"

Luo Feng said slyly, "If you don't tell me, what if I buy the wrong one in the future?"

"Who would want you to buy them?" Ai Tingya stomped her feet in embarrassment. She snatched the sanitary pads and threw them in the shopping cart before pushing them away.

After paying the bill, the two of them realized that they had bought too many things and could not carry them with four hands. Luo Feng registered his information and borrowed a cart from the supermarket.

The two of them admired the new school as they walked.

The medieval-style building had settled down in history, making it look like a silent old man. The two of them walked among it and brushed past the energetic students, giving off a unique charm of the old and new. 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Luo Feng seemed to be able to smell the warm smell of the sun from the wind, bringing with it the unique romantic aura of Oxford.

With such beautiful scenery, he naturally held Ai Tingya's hand. The two of them bathed in the warm afternoon sun and slowly walked towards the dormitory under the mottled light.

At this moment, Luo Feng vaguely heard someone calling him from behind.

He stopped and looked back. He saw Professor Jing and a white-haired old man slowly walking over.

Luo Feng saw that students kept coming forward to greet Professor Jing's old man and guessed that he was also a teacher from the school. The two of them would be stopped after taking a few steps, so they walked rather slowly.

"I saw you from afar. It's really you." Professor Jing walked closer and said to Luo Feng, "Luo Feng, Ai Tingya, this is our school's philosophy professor, Ai Zhaojiang."

It was unknown if it was on purpose or if Luo Feng was too sensitive, but he felt that Professor Jing emphasized the word "Ai".

This made Luo Feng and Ai Tingya a little curious. They could actually meet fellow countrymen with the same surname in a foreign land.

Professor Jing introduced him to Ai Zhaojiang. "Old Ai, this is Luo Feng, the top scorer who almost scored full marks."

Ads by Pubfuture

"Alright, alright. You have a bright future. Continue working hard," Ai Zhaojiang said vaguely. His small eyes were wide open as he looked at Ai Tingya without moving.

They were too similar!

Ai Zhaojiang felt like he was about to cry. It was as if he could see his son standing in front of him when he was young.

Luo Feng looked at Ai Zhaojiang and then at Ai Tingya. He felt that it was strange. Why was Professor Ai staring at Ai Tingya when Professor Jing introduced him? Moreover, it was obvious that he didn't want to talk to him.

...

Ai Tingya felt uncomfortable under his gaze and took the initiative to greet him to break the awkwardness. "Professor Ai… Hello…"

"Good! Good!" Ai Zhaojiang smiled until her eyes were like slits.

Luo Feng felt even stranger. The joy was like hearing a baby speak for the first time.

Professor Jing coughed and reminded Ai Zhaojiang to control herself. Don't scare others on their first meeting. He took the initiative to suggest, "We want to treat you to a meal. Are you free today?"

Two professors are treating them to a meal on the first day of school? Luo Feng had never heard of such treatment in university. Moreover, Ai Zhaojiang's attitude was a little off. He did not dare to accept it for a while.

93 I Have To Continue Open Shops Even I Attend University

Luo Feng did not know what kind of custom Oxford had in the past for new students, but he was certain that no professor had treated them to a meal!

Ai Zhaojiang said to Tingya as if she was coaxing a child, "What do you like to eat?"

They were already so close on their first meeting. For some reason, Ai Tingya hid behind Luo Feng and tightened her grip on him.

Luo Feng sensed Ai Tingya's fear and took a step forward to block Professor Jing and Ai Zhaojiang's gazes. "Thank you, Professor, but we still have a lot of things to do since we just arrived. We have to let you down. I'm sorry."

"Hahaha." Professor Jing laughed dryly and felt that it was too abrupt. "There's indeed not enough time. Let's talk about it next time when you're free."

"Thank you, Professor. Goodbye, Professor." Luo Feng held Ai Tingya's hand and the two of them ran away.

Tingya turned around as she ran and realized that Ai Zhaojiang's eyes were glistening with tears.

Looking at the two of them running away, Professor Jing said helplessly, "Why didn't you tell her directly? Look at us now. They will think we're bad people."

He couldn't be bothered to complain. Ai Zhaojiang really looked like he was about to abduct children just now. No wonder Tingya was afraid.

Ads by Pubfuture

Ai Zhaojiang wiped her eyes and choked. "I'm afraid— I'm afraid she'll blame me and ask me why I didn't look for her. But I really can't control myself."

Ai Zhaojiang had been working hard to create an amiable first impression of himself before they met. He would slowly get closer to her in the future.

However, the words that he had thought of were completely forgotten the moment they met. He wished he could tell Ai Tingya immediately that he was her biological grandfather.

He flinched again when he saw Ai Tingya's face.

"If I hadn't been too domineering back then, Tingya's father wouldn't have left," Ai Zhaojiang said sadly. "I'm the cause of Tingya being an orphan for 18 years."

Ai Zhaojiang had been regretting it all the time throughout these years. He did not have a close relative by his side in his later years. He guarded the osmanthus tree in the courtyard every day. The once high-spirited philosophy professor only had boundless desolation in his later years.

Professor Jing felt very upset when he saw his old friend sad.

Even though Ai Zhaojiang had retired many years ago, his legend remained in the school. His strict teaching style and rigorous teaching philosophy had always been discussed by the students and passed down from generation to generation.

Especially Ai Zhaojiang's unyielding attitude of slamming the table with the school leader for the sake of difficult students. He was a tough nut to crack, one tough cookie. Later on, the leader had a headache just hearing him knock on the door.

The once fearless Ai Zhaojiang had also hunched her back and bent her back. She knew how to secretly touch and wipe her tears.

He understood this feeling of homesickness. "Old Ai, don't be sad. There's still a chance next time."

Ai Zhaojiang covered her eyes and sobbed. She said aggrievedly, "Luo Feng ruined my first dinner with my granddaughter."

Professor Jing: "…"

This was a little unfair. When Professor Jing heard this, he felt sorry for Luo Feng. Luo Feng should have the reaction of a normal boyfriend thinking of how Ai Zhaojiang had frightened Ai Tingya just now.

"I advise you to find an opportunity to talk things out sooner," Professor Jing advised. "I don't think Ai Tingya is an unreasonable child. She should be able to understand you."

Ai Zhaojiang didn't answer, just stared in the direction where the two of them had left.

…

Luo Feng pulled Ai Tingya and ran far away. He only stopped when he could no longer see the two professors.

Ai Tingya panted as she supported herself with the cart. She felt suffocated. "Luo Feng, why do I feel that Professor Ai is strange? He seems to have something to tell me."

The environment she grew up in was destined to make her more sensitive than others.

Ai Tingya felt that Ai Zhaojiang didn't have any ill intentions. He even seemed to be suppressing something. Especially his sad expression in the end, Ai Tingya actually felt sad too.

Luo Feng pinched Ai Tingya's red face and said, "Maybe you're too likable."

He could also sense Ai Zhaojiang's emotions, and he felt that he was a little dissatisfied with him.

Luo Feng felt that this meeting was a little strange.

However, the two of them quickly forgot about this.

This was because they had a busier vision— To expand their territory!

The school gave the new students three days to familiarize themselves with the campus and surrounding environment. Luo Feng looked at the students coming and going every day as if he was looking at customers standing in a row.

The target audience of milk tea was students after all. The entire school contained a huge group of students who were potential customers!

The two of them were busy participating in the school's event while looking for a suitable address to open a shop around the school. Oxford was their first stop to make a name for their brand!

However, things didn't go as planned. Oxford did not technically have a school gate, so there were no shops. There was a business district that students liked to go to not far from the school.

The shops operating there were mostly targeted at students. The rent of a place that could guarantee human traffic was very expensive, and no one would easily give it up.

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya made two or three trips to ask their local classmates, but they could not find a suitable one.

Luo Feng had no scruples about spending money after leaving his parents. He was a multi-millionaire, but he actually had no place to spend money. He was unfamiliar with the place and did not know who to give money to.

On this day, the two of them, who had just finished visiting the library, walked on the boulevard.

Ai Tingya lost hope after running around for a few days. "Why don't we look to a further place? The rent might not be any cheaper but it definitely won't be so difficult to find."

Luo Feng had the same thought. "Let's go to another business district and try our luck since we're free in the afternoon."

Luo Feng's phone suddenly rang just as the two of them were discussing where to look.

"Hello, who are you looking for?" ｂｅ𝚍ｎｏ𝚟𝚎ｌ.𝚌𝚘ｍ

"Ah… yes, I was there yesterday. Yes, yes, that student."

"What? Want me to go over now? Alright, alright, I'll come over immediately."

After hanging up, Luo Feng said happily, "Let's go, Tingya. The landlord from the shop I saw last time called."

"Which landlord?" Ai Tingya had visited many landlords in the past two days, but she couldn't remember which one.

Luo Feng said, "The one who was in a hurry last time. He didn't even have time to leave a phone number."

Ai Tingya remembered him with that said. She remembered that the landlord had a bad temper and was a heavy drinker. His eyes were red from drinking in broad daylight, and she could smell the alcohol on him from two meters away.

The landlord did not look very reliable, so that shop was the one Luo Feng they all did not have much hope of.

...

"He's willing to rent it to us?" Ai Tingya asked suspiciously.

"Yes, he asked us to bring our identification documents over to sign the contract." Luo Feng touched his pocket and confirmed that he had his student ID with him.

"Why the sudden change in heart?" Ai Tingya said. "We've only exchanged about five sentences!"

94 To Have Something Fall into Your Lap? A Shop That Seeks Rent At A Low Price

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya felt that something was wrong. They had always felt that the landlord had no impression of them at all. Why did he suddenly call them to sign the contract?

"It's better for us to be careful lest there's a trap," Ai Tingya said.

She had no one to rely on since she was young and could settle everything herself. She was especially vigilant about some things. In addition, she had just arrived at a new place and was unfamiliar with the place. She was very worried that they would be schemed against.

"I'm here. We'll leave immediately if we realize that something's wrong." Luo Feng pulled Ai Tingya's hand and pressed it against his chest. A strong heartbeat came from his palm, and all of Ai Tingya's worries instantly disappeared.

The two of them took a taxi in order to avoid the landlord waiting too long.

Luo Feng saw the landlord standing at the door from across the street, looking around as if he was in a hurry. When the taxi stopped at the entrance of the shop, the landlord ran out enthusiastically and took the initiative to open the door for them.

This was not the treatment a tenant should receive…

Luo Feng pressed Ai Tingya behind him. The landlord had already turned around and returned to the house before he could speak. A contract was printed on Luo Feng's face when he emerged again.

"Just sign it!" the landlord urged.

Luo Feng held the contract and said in surprise, "But we haven't discussed the rent yet."

The landlord flipped to the third page impatiently and pointed at a row of words. "This amount. Are you satisfied?"

Luo Feng looked down and was instantly stunned. Seeing this, Ai Tingya quickly ran up and gasped when she saw the amount!

"10,000 yuan a month?" Luo Feng was surprised.

"What? Do you think it's too much?" The landlord was also surprised.

Their business district was near Oxford. The premise of ensuring an abundance of customers was that every inch of land was worth money! The shops nearby cost at least 40,000 to 50,000 yuan a month.

Even though 10,000 yuan was more expensive than Crown City, it was already considered a charity here.

Luo Feng waved his hand and said, "No, no, no. It's too cheap, but can I ask why?"

The landlord refused directly. "No."

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya looked at each other and nodded. Then, they said to the landlord, "Sorry, we still have to think about it."

The landlord said anxiously, "What's there to consider? Where else can it be cheaper than my offer?"

He really wanted to grab Luo Feng's hand and sign it on his behalf! He looked like he expected better from someone. Why didn't he take such a good deal? Others might not be able to receive preferential treatment even if they racked their brains!

"Thank you, thank you. Let's go take a look at the others." Luo Feng rejected decisively and pulled Ai Tingya away quickly.

The two of them walked for a while.

The more Ai Tingya thought about it, the stranger it became. "There's no free lunch in the world. Did you see that just now? The landlord's eyes are about to turn red from anxiety!"

Luo Feng nodded in agreement. "We're not related. There's no reason to give us such a big discount. Let's find another shop."

Luo Feng knew the importance of being cautious after experiencing two lifetimes. He did not dare to take advantage of this.

The two of them walked aimlessly around the business district. Luo Feng seized the opportunity to spend money on Ai Tingya. Soon, the two of them were carrying things in all four hands.

Ai Tingya's calves were sore and she really couldn't walk anymore.

"Let's go back." Ai Tingya stopped in her tracks. "Come out and look for it tomorrow."

Luo Feng looked at the sun that was about to set and said, "Let's go back after dinner. I heard from Yang Bo that there's a delicious steak shop nearby. Let's go try it."

The steak sounded too extravagant. Ai Tingya did not want to spend money, but she was really tired and could only let Luo Feng lead her.

Luo Feng took the things from Ai Tingya and suddenly stopped after taking two steps.

He saw a familiar figure crossing the road at the intersection in front of him. It was the landlord. He looked very anxious and almost got hit by a car as he jogged.

Luo Feng pointed in the direction the landlord had run in and said, "Tingya, look at that person." 𝒷ℯ𝓭𝓷ℴ𝓋𝓮𝓵.𝒸ℴ𝓶

The two of them watched the landlord run into a café and walk towards a white-haired old man by the window. The two of them could not suppress their curiosity and followed him.

They leaned against the glass and saw that the landlord was actually looking for Ai Zhaojiang!

The landlord hunched his back as if he was reporting something to Ai Zhaojiang. Luo Feng and Ai Tingya couldn't hear him clearly because they were too far away. The two of them bent down and got closer and closer. Ai Tingya's legs went weak, and she accidentally pounced on Luo Feng's back and pushed him out.

Suddenly, a black shadow appeared in front of her. Ai Zhaojiang was also shocked. He looked up and met Luo Feng's eyes.

This might be the most awkward few minutes in Ai Zhaojiang's life. He stared at Luo Feng and happened to see Ai Tingya hiding behind him when he moved his gaze.

Luo Feng did not know whether to leave or stay. He pulled Ai Tingya into the cafe after struggling for a few minutes.

"Professor Ai, what a coincidence." Luo Feng smiled and scratched his head.

"Yes, what a coincidence. Hahaha." Ai Zhaojiang laughed dryly and looked at Ai Tingya uncontrollably.

The landlord, who was standing at the side, was at a loss. He remembered Ai Zhaojiang's instructions not to expose the deeper reason for the shop's rental. He lowered his head and did not dare to look at Luo Feng.

Luo Feng thought that since he was already here, he might as well figure things out.

He didn't stand on ceremony and sat opposite Ai Zhaojiang. "Isn't this the landlord? You know Professor Ai too?"

The landlord smiled and nodded, not daring to say anything else.

Ai Zhaojiang really wanted to throw Luo Feng out now. He had no choice but to answer such an obvious question. "Yes, we happened to meet here and chatted for a while."

Luo Feng thought to himself that the landlord's forehead was covered in sweat just now. He did not seem to have come to meet him by chance.

Luo Feng decided not to beat around the bush seeing that Ai Zhaojiang did not seem to want to tell the truth. "Professor Ai, is that shop yours?"

Ads by Pubfuture

"Huh? What shop?" Ai Zhaojiang's smile froze. This was the first time he was so annoyed with a smart junior.

Can you not expose my good intentions in front of my granddaughter! Ai Zhaojiang roared in his heart, and his good impression of Luo Feng decreased a little. He had no choice but to smile at him even though he disliked him.

Luo Feng chuckled and said, "Don't hide it from us. Look at the landlord, he's sweating profusely. This seems to be a forced chance encounter."

Ai Zhaojiang was speechless.

He really wanted to lie to cover up this matter, but he was afraid of leaving a bad impression on Ai Tingya. Moreover, his mind went blank when he saw Ai Tingya. His 140 IQ went on strike.

...

At this moment, the landlord stood up heroically and said, "Aiya, Professor Ai, your habit of doing good deeds without leaving your name is still the same as before. Look, since the students have asked, tell the truth."

The landlord winked and gave a secret signal. Ai Zhaojiang's face was filled with "What are you talking about?"

The landlord could only continue to make up stories since the signal reception had failed. "Professor Ai keeps a low profile, so let me do the talking. He heard that it was not easy for a student to start a business, so he wanted to help you, so he came to me!"

Only then did Ai Zhaojiang react, nodding and echoing, "Yes, yes! He's right!"

95 Ai Zhaojiang's Humble Way Of Helping

Luo Feng raised his eyebrows suspiciously hearing the landlord and Ai Zhaojiang's explanation. "Really?"

The last time Ai Zhaojiang was questioned was at a teaching seminar. He stood on the stage and argued with the scholars and professors, making them speechless.

At this moment, facing a mere freshman like Luo Feng, he felt guilty and needed to ask the landlord for help.

How could he not want to tell the truth to Ai Tingya? How could he not want to wave his hand and point out the shop in a prime location to Ai Tingya?

Even though the Ai family was not super rich, they had been from a scholarly family for generations and had accumulated a considerable amount of wealth. Even though the shop that Luo Feng and Tingya had their eyes on was not under the Ai family's name, they could still afford the penalty.

The landlord was also quite polite on account of the professor.

"Of course it's true!" The landlord stood up to help. "Can our Professor Ai trick you?"

Luo Feng did not think that Ai Zhaojiang would trick them. It was just previously he tried to treat them to a meal and now he was trying to help them with the shop this time. Did Oxford University give new students such preferential treatment?

Ai Zhaojiang raised his hand and gestured for the landlord to take out the contract. He spread it on the table and said to Ai Tingya, "I'll vouch for you since we are here now. Sign the contract so that it won't be troublesome."

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya looked at each other.

He still insisted on his previous decision. "I'm sorry, Professor Ai. We'll find another shop ourselves."

The reason why Luo Feng did not take over was not only because he did not want to owe anyone a favor, but also because if the rent of the shop was lower, his returns would be even lesser! Luo Feng wanted to get more benefits and quickly invest in the next step.

When Ai Zhaojiang heard this, his white eyebrows immediately dropped. Even someone like him with a golden tongue would be silent one day.

"Um… Do you want to reconsider?" The landlord saw that Professor Ai was sad and tried to make up for it.

Ai Tingya said seriously, "Thank you for your kind intentions, Professor Ai, but we want to rely on ourselves. This can also be considered a form of training."

Ai Zhaojiang was both happy and sad hearing his granddaughter speak to him.

There was no need to mention how happy he was. He was sad because the more independent Ai Tingya became, the more he felt that he was a spare.

Previously, he had been worried about Ai Tingya when he met with her. He, who had long retired, went to school every day to have a chance encounter with her and say a few more words to her.

Ai Zhaojiang didn't see the two of them in school for a few days. Later, he found out from Professor Jing that the two of them were busy opening a shop.

He also found out from Professor Jing that Ai Tingya and Luo Feng opened a milk tea shop in Crown City. Its business was very good and very popular. 𝗯𝐞𝐝𝗻𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥.𝐜𝗼𝐦

Ai Zhaojiang felt gratified and felt that he owed Ai Tingya.

He hoped that Ai Tingya would be pampered and not have to suffer any hardships. She could just do what she liked.

Therefore, he immediately used his connections to contact the shop and lowered the rent to the lowest. If possible, he wanted to book an entire street of shops for Tingya to choose from!

Why did he have to lie one lie after another like now and be rejected so decisively?

Ai Zhaojiang was dejected. His lowered eyes were like a stray dog that had been abandoned. The sadness of no longer being needed was obvious.

Seeing this, the landlord felt that this was a good opportunity. "Professor Ai, don't be sad. It's a good thing for students to be independent. Even though you spent a large sum of your retirement pension to compensate me and even though you spent two days thinking for me, it's fine. The students are all developing in a good direction, right?"

Every word he said was like an arrow stabbing into Ai Tingya's heart. He began to sway from side to side and looked at Luo Feng with troubled eyes unable to bear it.

Ai Zhaojiang realized something interesting.

Even though Luo Feng was in charge between the two of them, he took care of Ai Tingya's emotions.

"Sigh, I'm old and can't help easily…" Ai Zhaojiang lamented.

Ai Tingya was soft-hearted to begin with, so how could she listen to this? She widened her big eyes and looked at Luo Feng pitifully, hoping that he would think of a way to get the best of both worlds.

Luo Feng looked at Ai Zhaojiang, who was pretending to be pitiful, speechlessly. How could a professor from a famous university with both fame and fortune be so glass-hearted?

He didn't believe it anyway, but Ai Tingya did. If he rejected the old man's good intentions, Ai Tingya would probably be sad for a long time.

Luo Feng rubbed his temples and compromised. "Alright, Professor Ai, we can rent the shop, but we have to follow the original rent. Do you think this is suitable?"

It was better for everyone to take a step back.

Ai Zhaojiang looked at his granddaughter's worried face and was overjoyed when he heard that there was a way out.

"Alright, then you have to work harder." Ai Zhaojiang smiled. She felt that her granddaughter was too ambitious!

After negotiating the matter, the landlord changed the amount of the rent under the gaze of Luo Feng and Ai Tingya. The other conditions did not change, and Luo Feng readily signed his name.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ai Zhaojiang smiled and asked Ai Tingya, "Student Ai must be hungry. The meat sauce noodles in this shop are very good. Let's try them together."

Even though Tingya felt that something was wrong, she couldn't bear to reject the old man. "Let's sit at the same table if it isn't too much trouble for you."

"Of course not." Ai Zhaojiang was overjoyed.

He finally got the chance to eat with Ai Tingya. He was so excited that he asked for everything he felt was good. The small square table was almost full in just a few minutes.

Luo Feng laughed. "Professor Ai, you're too polite."

"Is there anything you like?" Ai Zhaojiang snorted and asked Ai Tingya with a smile.

Tingya was flattered. She nodded and felt that something was wrong, but then shook her head. In the end, she picked up the nearest cake and said, "This is very good."

She cut off a piece and placed it in her mouth. Her bulging cheeks looked like a little hamster. Ai Zhaojiang's heart almost melted as he planned to buy a camera next time and record this precious scene!

He had not been so happy since his son left home.

Halfway through the meal, Ai Zhaojiang seized the opportunity and said, "Student Ai, we're really fated. I'll call you Tingya in the future."

Ai Tingya nodded without objection.

Luo Feng, who was holding half a bowl of noodles, acutely sensed a familiar smell. Why did he smell Mother Luo on Ai Zhaojiang?

When he looked over, Ai Zhaojiang was indeed adding food to Ai Tingya's plate. His quick movements coincided with Mother Luo's actions of picking up food.

Ai Tingya was not good at rejecting others' good intentions. She could only thank Ai Zhaojiang while chewing faster.

Her puffed-up cheeks kept moving. She was simply too cute with her innocent gaze! Even the unrelated landlord was stunned.

Luo Feng and Ai Zhaojiang revealed gentle expressions.

...

Ai Zhaojiang glanced at Luo Feng silently. He felt that it was not good for such a cute granddaughter to be kidnapped by a brat. He was not so easy to fool as his granddaughter!

96 Why Is There Another Performance Competition?

It was rare for Ai Zhaojiang to be able to eat with Ai Tingya. He had emptied his stomach to find a topic to talk about. However, this was only the second time the two of them had officially met. Ai Tingya didn't know what to talk about so her reaction was always faint.

"I remember that you ranked second in the province. How impressive." Ai Zhaojiang was very proud and wanted to hear the story of Ai Tingya studying hard.

Ai Tingya put down the soup bowl and said, "Thank you for your praise. There's still a lot of room for improvement in my results. I'll continue to work hard."

She really felt that Ai Zhaojiang was being polite to her. He was a professor from a top university after all and usually came into contact with either guaranteed admissions or top scholars. She, who was second place, was really not worthy of praise.

!

Ai Tingya picked up the soup bowl again after giving a formal answer.

"Uh…" Ai Zhaojiang felt a little awkward.

It was a rare opportunity, but he didn't want to give it up. He tried his best to find something to say. "What kind of movies does Tingya usually like to watch? There's a very good movie theater nearby. If you're free, you can go take a look."

"I'm sorry, Professor Ai. I've only been to a cinema once before," Ai Tingya said honestly.

Ads by Pubfuture

Luo Feng had brought her there once. After that, Ai Tingya felt that the ticket price was too expensive and had never gone there a second time.

Ai Zhaojiang was speechless. He felt that he had really made a terrible start.

He had no experience with his granddaughter. He had only heard from his old friends of the same generation that young people liked to chase after trends. The best place to date was the cinema.

However, Ai Tingya had grown up in an orphanage and barely had enough food to eat. The cinema was too extravagant.

The more Ai Zhaojiang chatted, the sadder he became. In the end, he began to doubt his life.

At this moment, he was a little grateful to Luo Feng and muttered softly, "From the looks of it, Luo Feng is indeed not bad."

For some reason, these words floated into Ai Tingya's ears. She, who had been lowering her head and chewing slowly, swallowed the food in her mouth in two bites and said excitedly, "That's right! Luo Feng is really good! Professor Ai, you've also realized, right? Anyone who comes into contact with Luo Feng thinks he's very outstanding!"

Ai Zhaojiang had mixed feelings facing his suddenly happy granddaughter, but he had no choice but to accept this fact.

"Luo Feng is really smart to be able to become the top scholar in a year. He's very talented in his studies!"

"That's right, that's right! And he's very hardworking! He studies until late every night. I feel that it's very tough just looking at him."

Wait, how did you know that he studies until very late? Ai Zhaojiang roared in his heart, but he couldn't say anything else.

"Student Luo Feng is also a talent."

"Professor Ai, you have such good taste!"

"Student Luo Feng started doing business at such a young age. He's quite impressive." 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝑛𝑜𝑣𝑒𝘭.𝘯𝑒𝑡

"Professor Ai, you're right. Luo Feng is especially business-minded!"

After chatting for a while, Ai Zhaojiang praised Luo Feng against his will. Ai Tingya's reaction was very enthusiastic. When it came to Ai Tingya herself, her reaction was as cold as tofu soup.

Ai Zhaojiang did not manage to find out about Ai Tingya's situation, but he heard a lot about Luo Feng.

He really did not want to know what Luo Feng had done at all!

However, Ai Zhaojiang had no choice but to go along with her since his granddaughter was deeply in love.

After dinner, Luo Feng and Ai Tingya had other things to do and hurriedly bade farewell to Ai Zhaojiang.

In the next few days, the two of them took advantage of the time to contact the renovation company again and buy renovation materials. Fortunately, there was a ready-made blueprint that saved Luo Feng a lot of time.

The prices here were several times higher than in Crown City. Luo Feng spent a total of three million yuan to settle the matter.

The matter was still not over. Whenever the two of them had time, they would go to the shop to monitor the renovation progress and tell them the changes in real time.

In the past, Luo Feng felt that staring at the renovation was a very boring thing. He did not have to do anything but could not leave. He would easily feel sleepy when he stared at all the knocking.

It was different now.

Ai Zhaojiang would always appear on time when Tingya appeared at the renovation venue.

Luo Feng felt that Ai Zhaojiang might have a dog's nose and could always accurately track Ai Tingya's scent. Sometimes, he wouldn't be able to see Ai Zhaojiang if he came alone, but if Ai Tingya was around, Ai Zhaojiang would quickly arrive.

On this day, Luo Feng and Ai Tingya were discussing renovation at the door when a familiar figure appeared on time. Ai Zhaojiang was holding a small box of cream cakes with a chubby little rabbit on it. He walked over with a smile.

"What a coincidence to meet you again." Ai Zhaojiang handed the cake to Tingya and said, "Tingya, this cake is delicious. Try it."

After a few days of interaction, Ai Tingya was no longer as reserved as before, but she still did not want to take her things for free.

She was about to wave her hand to refuse but Ai Zhaojiang's face fell first. The little old man said aggrievedly, "I see that other girls like to eat it. Tingya, do you not like sweets? Then I'll change to another one next time. Do you like nuts?"

Her aggrieved look was too much like an abandoned stray dog.

Ai Tingya's heart was already soft, let alone the kindness of a kind elder.

She quickly took the cake and said, "I like cake. Thank you, Professor Ai. This is the most exquisite cake I've ever seen."

Ai Zhaojiang was satisfied. "Try it."

Ai Tingya opened it and took a bite. She let out a happy nasal sound and eagerly scooped another spoonful. She nodded and gave him a thumbs up, constantly praising the cake.

Ai Zhaojiang was incomparably proud seeing that she liked it. He was even prouder than publishing a thesis.

Luo Feng was certain that Ai Zhaojiang had looked at him provocatively just now. Coupled with the satisfaction after feeding her, he seemed to have seen his mother's shadow in Ai Zhaojiang.

Originally, he thought that he would be able to obtain Tingya's favor alone after leaving Crown City. Unexpectedly, another competitor cropped up.

Was Luo Feng the kind of person who would admit defeat so easily?

He walked to Ai Tingya's side and said gently, "Tingya, is the cake delicious?"

Ai Tingya nodded repeatedly and handed over a spoon. "It's really fragrant. Try it."

Luo Feng raised his hand and plucked the cream foam from the corner of Ai Tingya's mouth. Then, he placed it in his mouth and nodded in agreement. "It's indeed very sweet."

This sentence was clearly about the cake, but it was actually referring to Ai Tingya.

"…" Ai Zhaojiang's expression was blank. He could only watch as the brat teased his granddaughter.

Most importantly, Ai Tingya enjoyed it.

...

She fed half of the cake to Luo Feng while blushing. "That's so tasteless. Eat this."

Luo Feng took a bite and did not forget to raise his eyebrows at Professor Ai. His gaze seemed to be saying, "Did you see that? Tingya still likes me the most."

Ai Zhaojiang stomped his feet in anger. He made another note of Luo Feng in the small account book.

He will settle scores slowly with this kid in the future!

"It's delicious. Thank you, Tingya." Luo Feng swallowed the cake and did not forget to wheedle with Ai Tingya.

There were people coming and going on the street. Ai Tingya was a little embarrassed and said weakly, "Thank you, Professor Ai."

97 You Look Too Good In These Clothes. Stay Away From Us

Luo Feng and Ai Zhaojiang were at loggerheads. They were fighting for favor from Ai Tingya and performing in front of her every day.

However, Luo Feng was still winning. Ai Tingya liked him after all. Moreover, the two of them could stick together every day when they left the dormitory building.

No matter how diligent Zhaojiang was, he could only pretend to meet her at the shop or school. He could not guard the dormitory building.

But soon, an opportunity that only Ai Zhaojiang could help appeared!

Luo Feng and Ai Tingya's military training was about to begin in two weeks. The strict military management filled up their schedule every day, and they were almost not allowed to move freely.

The two of them couldn't come out to supervise the work anymore. Ai Zhaojiang volunteered to come and help every day. 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝙣𝒐𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎

The renovation team that Luo Feng found was often in charge of the renovation of the shops in the mall. They had more or less heard of Ai Zhaojiang. They were not afraid of them playing tricks with the old professor there everyday.

Ai Tingya and Luo Feng could also receive training in school without worry.

…

The day before the military training, the freshmen had to go to the school cathedral to receive the same military training uniform.

Luo Feng went with his roommates. Other than Hao Yingqiang, who was slightly fatter, the other three were about the same size.

Originally, the four of them were filled with anticipation. Every man had a soldier's dream and looked forward to wearing handsome camouflage clothes everyday. However, as soon as they received the clothes, half of their dream was shattered.

The other half would also shatter when they opened the packaging in the dormitory.

The material of the school's military training uniform was very poor. The short-sleeved jacket was smooth. Not only was it very thin and transparent, but it also did not absorb sweat at all. It might be similar to a see-through shirt if not for the dark color as a cover.

The pants were more like a piece of paper with thick stitches. The pants that Ali had obtained were still a little unstitched, so he had to process them himself. Most importantly, they had a pungent smell of starch.

The pampered Yang Bo collapsed on the spot. "Can this thing be called clothes?"

Even the material of his personal clothes was more delicate than these two pieces of cloth!

The other three were not as picky as him but they did not dare to praise this military uniform.

Then, he looked at the pair of hard-soled rubber shoes. They were the cheapest kind. It was as if he was stepping on a hard paper shell when using them. If he stood in a military posture with these shoes, he would probably get blisters on the first day.

It was completely different from the tall military boots they had imagined.

However, no matter how much they despised it, they had to wear this set of clothes for two weeks. They had to try it on no matter what.

The three of them put it on. The rough fabric made their skin itch. The inferior leather belt split into layers as soon as it was buckled. Yang Bo and the other two felt like they were wearing a woven bag.

He didn't know how to differentiate the sizes, but the clothes he obtained would be two sizes larger.

"Fortunately, we only need to wear them in school. You might as well kill me if you want me to wear them to the streets." Ali complained.

He didn't care much about the people who were wearing this set of clothes usually. They were very dissatisfied with it, let alone Yang Bo. He didn't want to wear it for another second.

Yang Bo took off his clothes and said, "If my mother saw this outfit, she would definitely think that I was trafficked."

Hao Yingqiang was a little fat. His loose and stiff clothes made him look like a balloon man opening a new shop.

The three of them looked at each other in silence. Being ugly together might be the only comfort.

At this moment, Luo Feng, who was dressed, walked over and reminded them, "I think it should be a little softer after washing it once. Take advantage of the hot weather and dry it tomorrow morning. Which one of you wants to wash it first?"

This was his experience from his previous life's military training.

Even though the schools they attended were different, the military training uniforms were all sloppy. Luo Feng even suspected that there was a uniform standard that stipulated the production lower limit of the military training uniforms.

Washing it could remove the dust and excess dye on it. At least it wouldn't irritate the skin.

The three of them nodded in agreement. When they turned around, their three faces were stunned.

Luo Feng was wearing the same inferior military training clothes as them, but he was as tall as a pine tree. His overly long shirt was not tucked into his belt, so it was very easy to split him up. However, Luo Feng's legs were long, so it actually gave off an ingenious atmosphere.

They were clearly wearing the same clothes, so why was it different when it came from people?

When Luo Feng saw the three of them looking at him, he thought that he was wearing the wrong clothes. He put the hem back into the waistband of his pants, making him look full of energy. His handsome face really looked like a soldier.

"Is there something on my face?" Luo Feng asked curiously. "Why are you guys looking at me?"

Yang Bo muttered, "Fortunately, we're not in the same class. Don't get too close to me."

Luo Feng was already handsome in his military training uniform. Coupled with the three of them as a contrast, he would be extremely handsome!

Yang Bo admitted that he was not bad-looking either. In the end, he could only categorize the difference as clothes.

Yes!

His clothes must have lowered his standards!

The four of them looked at each other. Yang Bo and the other two looked away unwillingly, feeling that they had completely lost to Luo Feng!

…

The military training phalanx was divided according to class, but Luo Feng and Ai Tingya were in different classes and were not together.

The sun was high in the sky. It was as hot as a light in the oven. After standing for ten minutes, he felt like he had been fished out of water. His clothes were wet and dried.

As soon as the students and instructors met, they were given a 15-minute military meal.

Even though he was an instructor, other than the chief instructor who was slightly older and was a military school student about the same age as Luo Feng, he had to establish his prestige. He did not hesitate to give orders.

The freshman stood under the hot sun with his chest puffed out and his head raised. His sweat left a watermark. It was itchy like an ant crawling past, but he could not scratch it. It was really very painful.

The students standing on the field were talents selected from various high schools. They were all treasures in their parents' hands. They were sent to school and picked up from work. If they rubbed their fingers, they would be sent to the hospital immediately. They had never been under the sun for so long.

"Everyone, rest!"

Just as the students thought that the instructor was merciful and lay on the ground,

The instructor said, "Battle formation!"

They had to stand up again before their butts touched the grass.

...

The students were at a loss, not knowing what the instructor meant. They stood in the line loosely and were very impatient.

"Rest!"

"Form up!"

"Rest!"

"Form up!"

Three or four times in a row, the students were like elevators. They sat down and stood up. After lying down, they stood up again. No one dared to lose their temper. After all, the instructor was the most powerful now. If they dared to talk back, they would stand in a military posture. All the students were angry but did not dare to say anything. They felt bitter.

Only Luo Feng understood that the instructor was torturing their minds.

The military management was in place now, and obedience was the only order. Therefore, his every rest was half a beat slower. Luo Feng was already standing while the other students were complaining.

"Alright, rest," the instructor said seriously.

This time, no student dared to move, afraid that the instructor would joke again. Only Luo Feng sat on the ground and took off his hat to fan himself. The students beside him laughed gloatingly, waiting to see him get up in a sorry state alone.

Unexpectedly, the instructor said, "What are you waiting for? Don't you want to rest? Then stand for a while more."

...

When the students heard this, they sat on the ground and seized every minute to rest.

99 Internal Affairs Reorganization Is Too Difficult For A Man

Alice sheltered Luo Feng with half of the umbrella while holding a bottle of dripping cold Coke dripping in her hand.

"Junior, have a bottle of Coke to moisten your throat." Alice revealed her signature smile. It was like the wind blowing through the flowers. A fragrance assaulted the others, making them feel intoxicated.

The envious and jealous gazes from the surroundings almost drowned Luo Feng.

Especially Xiong Hai and Ockham, they were so shocked that their jaws almost fell to the ground. Let alone the fact that Luo Feng wasn't from the psychology faculty but the finance faculty. They've never seen Alice take the initiative to be friendly with a guy.

It was mainly because Alice had an alluring temperament. The person she liked would be willing to become her boyfriend with just one look. There was no need for practical actions.

Recently, the news of Alice's breakup had spread like wildfire in the department. More than half of the boys in the psychology faculty felt that they had a chance. They surrounded Alice everyday like bees around a queen bee.

In the end, she had taken a fancy to a freshman. Once this news was out, there would probably be many more sad people in the psychology faculty.

Alice actually didn't want to be too proactive with boys, because her specialty was to welcome and reject, so she wasn't very familiar with using straight balls. However, Luo Feng was too handsome!

All the boyfriends she had dated in the past would actually make a move with one glance from her.

Alice had never felt that breaking up was so right. She had met the right person and had to take him down today.

"My name is Alice. Junior, what's your name?" Alice said gently.

Luo Feng looked at Cola, then at Alice, but he didn't take it.

Alice waited until her hands were sore and her smile froze. She didn't understand why Luo Feng wasn't taking her things. Could it be that she wasn't charming enough? Or was her junior shy?

The other students looked at him eagerly and roared in their hearts, "Are you going to take it? If you don't, I'll take it!"

Luo Feng said politely, "I'm sorry, senior, but it's not convenient for me to receive your drink."

Alice was surprised. "Why?"

Luo Feng said, "I already have a girlfriend. It's not good to receive a drink from another girl."

Alice did not believe that. The position of a girlfriend was a competition before marriage! There was no man she could not flirt with! Not to mention such a handsome junior!

"Who is it!" Alice blurted out.

"It's me."

A pleasant voice like a nightingale sounded. Ai Tingya stood outside the square with a bottle of mineral water in her hand.

The first-year students had not seen much of the world. They thought that Alice was already very beautiful, but they did not expect Ai Tingya to be even more beautiful. Moreover, she was stunning at a glance, and is the kind of beauty that unified everyone's aesthetics.

Ai Tingya was no longer the shy girl who did not dare to speak loudly. She walked straight to the two of them and smiled with the aura of the Empress. "Thank you for your kindness, Senior."

Alice felt a little embarrassed. She was surprised to find that she actually had stage fright in front of her junior.

She could only smile awkwardly to hide her guilt. She handed the water to Ai Tingya. "If he doesn't like it, then you can drink it."

She did not know why she was acting like a thief. After shoving the coke to Ai Tingya, she hugged her parasol and fled.

Ai Tingya looked down at Luo Feng and pouted, indicating for him to follow her.

The two of them found a shady place to rest.

"Why are you here?" Luo Feng took the initiative to take Ai Tingya's mineral water and asked as he drank, "I remember your training area is a little far from here."

Ai Tingya said, "We have a lot of girls and the instructors are good. They give us more time to rest."

She stared at Luo Feng's moving adam's apple and said sourly, "Mineral water isn't as sweet as Coke, and it's not as cold."

Luo Feng smiled and said, "Really? I think it's sweet and cold." His lips were like the taste of normal mineral water every day, "Our Tingya is elegant and has a sweet-tongue, hmm~ Why do I detect sourness again?"

"Hmph, screw you." Ai Tingya pouted and leaned her head on Luo Feng's shoulder.

Not far away, Xiong Hai and Ockham felt a faint chill in their hearts when they saw this scene. Was the watermelon they had just eaten too cold? Why did they feel a little uncomfortable?

The two of them covered their chests and took a long time to react.

What hurt was the heart, not the stomach.

Meng Xu did not see his goddess when he returned after distributing the cola, so he walked to Xiong Hai and Ockham. "There are still two bottles left. I'll give them to you. Speaking of which, where's the President?" 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙．𝑐𝑜𝘮

Xiong Hai's voice was a little weathered. "No matter how sweet coke is, can it be compared to mineral water filled with love?"

Meng Xu thought that he had misheard. Why was he reciting a poem out of the blue? Eating watermelon and feeling depressed? The two of them walked past him with an inexplicable determination. Meng Xu asked, "What's wrong?"

"I'm going to study!" Xiong Hai was enlightened. "My looks are not good, but I have to at least have some talent!"

Meng Xu scratched his head and suddenly felt deep veneration for the two of them.

…

Oxford's military training was strictly reflected in all aspects, including organizing internal affairs. Every student had to undergo a strict inspection.

Luo Feng had participated in military training before and was familiar with instructing his roommates on how to place their toiletries and how to deal with table hygiene. He had to make sure the four tables were exactly the same so that they would look completely clean visually.

However, Luo Feng scratched his head when it came to folding the blanket.

In his previous life, he also participated in military training, but at that time, the school's management was relatively loose. Luo Feng just happened to escape because the check was by drawing lots.

He saw the instructor demonstrate the method of folding the blanket. His theoretical foundation was very solid but he knew nothing about practical application.

In addition, the blanket he bought himself was of the best quality. It was extremely soft and could not be straightened no matter how hard he tried. This handiwork was difficult for a hero. The four of them walked around the dormitory like ants on a hot pan.

"What should we do? The instructor and counselor are coming for a checkup. I think they're already on the first floor!" At home, Yang Bo was a young master who did not work hard on his limbs and could not distinguish between five grains. There was no need for the young master to do anything with just a blanket.

If not for the fact that the school did not allow it, his family would have sent a nanny to accompany him.

Hao Yingqiang ran downstairs to investigate the situation and returned with an anxious expression. "Someone's blanket was thrown off the balcony. They're practicing on the platform downstairs! How embarrassing!"

"Quickly think of something!" The usually calm Ali was also anxious.

Luo Feng bit his thumb. He actually fumbled in front of a blanket with his extremely high IQ?

Just as the four of them were at their wits' end, there was a light knock on the door.

...

The four of them thought that the checkup had arrived, and their hearts instantly rose to their throats.

"Luo Feng, are you there?" Ai Ling pushed open the door a crack and asked softly.

When he opened the door, he realized that she was hugging a blanket. It was summer, so Luo Feng felt that Ai Tingya definitely wouldn't feel cold.

He pulled her into the house and said, "Why are you here?"

Ai Tingya smiled proudly. "Auntie told me that you don't know how to fold the blanket. Of course I'm here to help you."

Luo Feng was speechless. Why did his mother tell her everything?

The military training honed the students' willpower, and the focus was on the word "honing"! Standing in a military posture was only the first step of training their willpower.

The students rested for a few minutes before they were called onto their feet by the instructor again. This time, they stood upright. Their knees were together, and their fingers were pressed tightly against the seam of their pants. If they saw anyone slacking off, the instructor would even put a piece of paper in between places that should be together for the students. If it fell, the time where they had to stand in this position would be extended.

During this period, some of the weaker students felt uncomfortable and would be helped out by others. If they were lucky enough to get a leave slip, they could join the injured and ill company. They could rest in a corner of the rostrum and watch the other students suffer. The only bad thing was that their military training results could only be stuck at the passing mark.

When the weak students were carried out, a few boys in casual clothes carried watermelons into the field.

They were second-year seniors. They found a shady place and sat on the ground to eat the watermelons as if no one was around under the surprised gazes of the students.

The freshmen were already tired and thirsty. The students could not help but swallow their saliva when they saw the cool water droplets on the iced watermelon skin, the fresh and juicy crimson melon flesh, and the sound of the seniors slurping on melons.

The seniors were still chatting as if nothing had happened.

"Xiong Hai, this watermelon is too sweet. Why is it so sweet!" A brown-haired senior with a characteristic Z cut beside his ear had juice dripping from his mouth. His voice was a little loud.

The person called Xiong Hai said, "It's all thanks to the good tradition of our school. You don't know, but I saw a few seniors eating watermelons last year. It made me dream of watermelons. Ockham, don't tell me. This watermelon is really sweet."

The two of them had satisfied smiles on their faces. Even the instructor could not help but look at them eating.

The students looked at the two seniors' actions of attracting aggro and had already thought of how to write the "kill order". Since the seniors cherished the new students so much, they had to repay them well!

Luo Feng was as still as a mountain, as if he didn't see the two of them. Because in his previous life, he did the same thing after he became a sophomore. It seems that the traditions of every school are similar, so there's nothing strange about it.

He did not look at the two of them. Luo Feng focused on thinking about where to bring Ai Tingya for dinner in order to distract himself.

The students beside him saw Luo Feng's calm eyes and felt that this person's willpower was so strong that he was actually unmoved? The instructor also noticed this steady student. When he was patrolling, he couldn't help but take a few more glances at Luo Feng, his eyes filled with admiration.

The two seniors finished half of the watermelon and threw the melon skin to the side. They propped themselves up on the ground and burped.

Xiong Hai patted his round stomach and said, "The aggro is drawn. They should rest. Let's go quickly. It won't be good if we're surrounded."

Last year, an overly proud senior was surrounded by angry first-year students and had a friendly exchange with him. Countless hands were tickling his armpits.

The unlucky senior laughed until his voice was hoarse for a few days. He publicized not to provoke the first-year students whenever he saw them and was tickled into a psychological trauma.

Ockham wiped the watermelon juice from the corner of his mouth and said, "Yes, let's go… Look who that is."

Xiong Hai followed his finger and saw another boy in casual clothes carrying a box of iced Cokes. He thought he was carrying the instructors' things. But instead of walking up the rostrum, he walked over to Xiong Hai and the guy and put down the heavy iced Cokes.

After seeing the other party's face clearly, Xiong Hai was amused. "Hehe, Meng Xu, didn't you say you wouldn't come? You even brought iced Coke? You're so much more ruthless than us!"

Meng Xu was the student who took the lead in sanctioning the senior last year. This year, he became a senior. Originally, he did not want to continue this strange tradition, but for some reason, he brought Coke.

Meng Xu looked at the two of them in disdain. "I'm different from you. I'm here to send warmth, ah no, coolness."

As soon as he finished speaking, the tired freshmen resting in the field were attracted by a beautiful figure at the entrance of the field.

A red-haired senior in a white dress walked over slowly with a parasol. She was tall and curvy. She was not very beautiful, but her every move was very charming.

The students' gazes followed her wherever she went.

Meng Xu went up to her obsequiously. "President, you're here. The coke has been moved over!"

The red-haired senior smiled. "Thank you."

Xiong Hai and Ockham were dumbfounded. Wasn't this Alice, the President of the publicity department of the Psychology Faculty? She was publicly acknowledged as a beauty and was extremely popular, especially with the opposite sex.

It was rumored that she would receive a school bag full of love letters every day even though she has a boyfriend. There were countless boys who gave her flowers. The fragrance of the flowers on her dormitory building had never stopped.

Xiong Hai and Ockham were also one of the admirers. They stared at Alice.

Alice noticed these gazes. Not only did she not feel troubled, but she also enjoyed them. Being the center of attention in the crowd had become her habit, like breathing.

"Send it to our new members. They must be exhausted," Alice said with a faint smile.

The recruitment of the student unions of the various departments had long ended. As the President of the publicity department, Alice naturally had to come and comfort her juniors. 𝘣𝑒𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭．𝑜𝘳𝘨

Meng Xu was the Vice President of the publicity department and Alice's most loyal fan.

Alice's words were like an imperial edict. Meng Xu picked up the cool iced Coke and looked for his members one by one without another word. The students from the other faculties were so envious that they drooled and wished they could change faculty on the spot.

There were many majors in Oxford, and almost every faculty had a student union. The campus was their competition ground. They secretly competed with each other. Alice could now publicize the humane reputation of the Psychology Student Union.

The students who had participated in the other student unions looked forward to seeing their seniors appear at the edge of the field.

A few sweet-talking and bold students ran to Alice and praised her. They asked for a bottle of iced Coke and swallowed them in big mouthfuls. They sighed happily.

"Alice, it's a little sunny here. It's cooler over there."

"Yes, yes. Leave the lifting of such heavy drinks to us boys. Go over first."

Xiong Hai and Ockham seized the opportunity to curry favor.

Alice smiled and said, "Thank you."

She was already used to being flattered by the boys. She did not have to do anything herself as long as she smiled at them. Alice was very satisfied with the current situation. The only pity was that the three people who helped were not handsome.

She did not come to the field just to care for the members. She had dated her classmates and seniors. It was not easy for her to find a fresh junior. Of course, she had to find a handsome man.

At this moment, a handsome man in the square formation who was in a daze attracted Alice's attention.

Luo Feng was thinking about what to eat for dinner when a slender shadow blocked the sunlight.

Luo Feng was speechless. Why did his mother tell her everything?

100 It's Too Much To Bring A Virtuous Housewife To School!

"I came to help you and fold your blanket," Ai Tingya said considerately.

Luo Feng was so touched that he hugged her for a long time, unwilling to let go. Why did he fall for Xing Miaomiao instead in his previous life?!

The other three were even more shocked. Why was there external help even when he was folding the blanket?! We're all going to school, so why are you bringing your family members?! Are you bullying the three of us single dogs?!

The three of them were so envious that sparks were about to fly, they wished they could kick Luo Feng's butt and expel him from the dormitory so that they wouldn't be forced to eat dog food every day.

But now that they had something to ask of him, they had no choice but to endure it.

Ai Tingya pushed Luo Feng away shyly. "Your roommate is watching. Don't be like this."

Luo Feng grabbed his girlfriend's shoulder and laughed. "It's fine. They'll get used to it sooner or later!"

Get used to it my foot %￥#*! Yang Bo and the other two really wanted to curse.

Ai Tingya walked in and realized that Luo Feng's dormitory was spotless. Even the floor was so clean that it was reflective. She placed Luo Feng's blanket on the ground in relief.

Ads by Pubfuture

She first crushed the edge of the blanket repeatedly and realized that Luo Feng's blanket was too soft and difficult to form. She sprinkled some water and continued to crush it back and forth. Finally, a ridged edge appeared.

It was really not easy. Ai Tingya wiped the sweat off her forehead and continued to deal with the other side. The steps of folding the blanket were very simple. It was almost like repeating a few movements. It was the best test of patience.

Luo Feng could not help and could only fan her with heartache.

About 10 minutes later, a square piece of tofu appeared in front of the four of them. Ai Tingya wiped her sweat and said happily, "It's finally done! If I had known that your blanket was so soft, I would have used the blanket I brought to fold it into a tofu-shape."

Only then did the four of them remember why Ai Tingya came to the boys' dormitory with her own blanket. They immediately revealed fanciful smiles.

Seeing this, Ai Tingya blushed and explained, "No, do you want to fold tofu cubes every morning?"

She picked up the blanket she had brought and said, "Of course I'll put the tofu aside and cover the other bed!"

Luo Feng clapped and cheered, "My voice is nice and elegant. You're too thoughtful!"

He finally understood why every successful man had a virtuous wife behind him. It was because a partner with tacit understanding would help you think of the details and fill in the gaps.

"No, I just happen to have more blankets." Ai Tingya was embarrassed by the praise.

The three people beside him did not feel that they were unnecessary when they saw their happy faces. It was a mistake for them to stay in the dormitory.

Seeing that Yang Bo and the others' expressions were not good, Luo Feng asked curiously, "What's wrong? Do you lack blankets too?"

Yang Bo and the other two felt bitter in their hearts. What they lacked was not a blanket, but love! It was hot, warm, and beautiful love! Damn it, other people's love was always so damn sweet.

And they still had to worry about a tattered blanket.

"Have you learned it?" Ai Tingya smiled.

Luo Feng said confidently, "Yes!"

This time, he was still learning theoretical knowledge. After the blanket was folded, he would not have to do it himself if he could last until the end of the military training.

The other three rolled their eyes at him, wondering if there was any difference. Why were you talking so loudly!

Yang Bo took out a can of coffee from the drawer and said eagerly, "We're not outsiders. I'll call you Tingya. You won't mind, right?"

Ai Tingya shook her head. "No."

Luo Feng felt a little strange. Why did it sound like a prelude to a confession? He felt like his cabbage had been locked onto.

Hao Yingqiang and Ah Li also walked up and stood in line with Yang Bo. They looked at Ai Tingya lovingly, as if they had a lot to tell.

"Tingya!" Yang Bo and Hao Yingqiang said solemnly, "Please guide us to fold the blanket!"

Ali also clasped his hands together as if he was praying.

"Ha…" Ai Tingya was shocked. "Of course. Then let's start quickly."

"Alright, alright, alright. Quickly make room for Teacher Ai. Wait for me to set up a phone to record a teaching video!" Yang Bo took out his imported phone and aimed it at Ai Tingya.

Of course, it was impossible for Ai Tingya to fold four blankets in a row. Luo Feng's heart ached for Ai Tingya's tender hands!

Moreover, the instructor and counselor had already checked the second floor. They could only do it themselves. Ai Tingya guided them from the side. The three blankets were quickly folded.

Other than the fact that Hao Yingqiang's folding was a little soft, Ali and Yang Bo's folding was very good, especially Yang Bo's. He did not know how to do housework, but he knew how to do handicrafts. He really folded like a tofu block.

"The instructor is coming up. I have to go first." Seeing that it was about time, Ai Tingya hurriedly bade farewell.

Luo Feng wanted to send her downstairs, but the instructor and counselor had already walked to the other corridor and walked into the first dormitory. Fortunately, Luo Feng's dormitory was in the middle. Otherwise, Ai Tingya would not have been able to leave.

After a while, grievances in a tizzy came from the corridor.

"Even dogs fold better than you!"

"Ah! My blanket!"

"With your feet? What are your hands for? Overlap!"

"Instructor, don't throw it!"

"Do you see the dust here? Are they here to vent their anger?"

"Wipe it right away!"

New flower-colored blankets kept flying downstairs, making a huge commotion that frightened the dormitory behind them. They checked the hygiene again and again.

The instructor walked to Luo Feng's dormitory with an angry expression. The four of them were already standing in front of their respective windows, holding their heads high and waiting to be inspected. Their strict attitude made the instructor's anger subside slightly.

He walked into the dormitory with his hands behind his back and a serious expression on his face. He looked around and left without saying anything. The counselor behind him gave the dormitory a thumbs up. 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝘃𝐞𝐥.𝗻𝗲𝐭

"This is the neatest dormitory I've ever seen with the best blanket folded. You're also the only dormitory where the instructor didn't flare up. Keep it up!" The counselor thought highly of them.

It turned out that the stern instructor was already praising him if he did not teach him a lesson. The four of them looked at each other and smiled. This round was considered over.

"Luo Feng, my brother! It's all thanks to you!"

"Thank you so much. I will definitely repay you!"

...

Hao Yingqiang and Ali stood on each side and praised Luo Feng in various ways.

Yang Bo pretended to be aloof as he leaned against his table. He flipped through the video he had just taken and kept sighing about someone else's love. He touched his meticulous hairstyle like a daffodil.

He was so handsome. Why didn't he even have a partner?

He was not inferior to Luo Feng other than his looks and studies. Why didn't he meet a good girl?

Young men's feelings were always springtime. He couldn't help but take a screenshot of Ai Tingya and Luo Feng looking at each other tacitly. Then, he posted it on the school forum and captioned, "Another day hit by someone else's love. When will I meet my true love?"
