Pampered by the School Bully-Chapter 200 - 194. It’s a deal! Score 250 on the test, then it’s a date!

Chapter 200: 194. It’s a deal! Score 250 on the test, then it’s a date!

Trading exam scores for a date—a thankless task—was not something Pu Sangzhi wanted to agree to.

So she rejected him, "I don’t mind being blunt, but even if you rank second, it has nothing to do with me. So don’t even think about using your grades to tie me down."

Who knew that after she refused, Huo Feng pointed at her rice porridge with his chopsticks, "Did you enjoy the ribs this morning?"

As he spoke, Pu Sangzhi’s throat clogged up in an instant! She was completely flustered!

Ribs...

There were his ribs mixed into her plain porridge!

Ah...

Was Huo Feng really using ribs as a threat?

It was clearly ribs he added to her bowl himself! It’s not like she wanted to eat them!

Taking advantage with his chopsticks, Huo Feng casually picked up some noodles from his own bowl and sighed, "Ah, I offered up the tastiest thing to you, and I didn’t say a word when eating just clear soup and noodles myself. Oh well, consider the ribs fed to a dog..."

Pu Sangzhi didn’t know how many times she had been compared to a dog by him.

Her hand holding the spoon shook, she took a deep breath to stabilize her emotions, then gritted her teeth and said, "Got it."

Huo Feng’s face lit up with triumph, his smile revealing a set of white teeth, "Then it’s settled. If I rank within the top 250, your Christmas Eve and Christmas are on me, plus a weekend date. I’ll plan a really nice itinerary, and I’ll definitely make sure you enjoy a very, very comfortable experience!"

"Hold on..."

Pu Sangzhi frowned and looked up, "Christmas Eve, Christmas, and an additional weekend date? Aren’t those three conditions?"

Huo Feng waved his hand dismissively, "Ah, don’t sweat the small stuff!"

Pu Sangzhi was indeed bothered by it, "No. There’s no such good deal, choose only one out of the three times."

Huo Feng narrowed his eyes, "Do you really have to be so pedantic?"

Pu Sangzhi held up her porridge and said, "Mhm."

"Fine! If you insist on being pedantic, then I’ll lay it out for you!"

Huo Feng put down his chopsticks and started to explain, "I checked last night, both Christmas Eve and Christmas are at school. Being at school, we definitely can’t celebrate properly, and the time we have together is so limited! Either after evening study or after school in the afternoon, all together it doesn’t even add up to two hours. That’s why we need an extra weekend date! On the weekend, you still have to tutor Lin Qianqian in the afternoon, so at most I could only take over one morning or one evening from you, which is about 1/3 of the day. With a 24-hour day, I’d only have 1/3 of your time, plus these two hours, such a date wouldn’t even match up to someone else’s full day date. If you really want to be pedantic about it, then you’d also have to accompany me on a date on Sunday! Because we’re still missing a few hours!"

Instantly, Pu Sangzhi was befuddled by Huo Feng’s convoluted calculation...

She found herself gaping, giving Huo Feng an incredulous look.

Huo Feng tapped on the table, reminding her, "Think about it, whether you want to be pedantic, or just listen to me."

Pu Sangzhi was speechless with him, she could only reply, "Forget it, do as you please."

The moment she compromised, Huo Feng’s smile grew even more smug!

"Sangzhi, you really are spoiling me more and more," Huo Feng concluded.

The moment he spoke, Wen Miao and Zhu Dandan by Pu Sangzhi’s side shivered with stimulus...

They felt the world was filled with chill against them in this cold winter.

The 10 buddies nearby were nauseated by Huo Feng’s words!

They hurriedly ate their noodles, ready to leave, not wanting to ingest any more dog food!

At that time, Pu Sangzhi also did not want to engage with him in any more nonsensical talk!

She tapped on the table and finally pulled a face, her tone not very nice, "Can we eat? We still have to catch the early self-study session!"

Huo Feng obediently responded, "Oh!"

Thus, within the span of one breakfast, Huo Feng traded a few pieces of ribs for the most important bet of the next monthly exam!

He was smart, knowing how to exploit Pu Sangzhi’s dislike of owing favors.

However, he could also feel that Pu Sangzhi was indeed becoming more indulgent with him.

It seemed the path to pursuing his goddess was getting shorter and shorter~

Huo Feng felt, it was time to consider whether to have a Chinese or Western style wedding in the future.

...

After setting the bet with Pu Sangzhi, Huo Feng became even more diligent with his studies.

In the past, he would either daydream, sleep, or doodle little figures in his notebook during class...

But now, even if he was yawning frequently and tears were welling up from exhaustion, his gaze remained fixed on the blackboard and the projector slides.

Winter had arrived, and the temperature was truly low.

Huo Feng sat in the classroom, shivering with cold feet, the colder it got, the sleepier he became, but the sleepier he was, the more he reminded himself that he must listen attentively to the lectures!

After enduring two morning classes, Pan Bo fell asleep on the desk during the third class.

Seeing Pan Bo sleeping so soundly while he himself had to pay attention, Huo Feng felt an immense envy.

This envy lasted for one class, and by the fourth class, Huo Feng’s envy turned to jealousy.

Jealousy led him to mischief, compelling him to uncontrollably pick up the pen in his hand and draw a pair of frog-like whiskers on Pan Bo’s face.

After completing his prank, Huo Feng was triumphant.

Just then, the language arts teacher at the front asked, "I’m going to have a few people read a section of this text, would anyone like to volunteer?"

Huo Feng raised his hand high, "Teacher, my deskmate and I!"

It was rare for Huo Feng to be so proactive in class, which quite surprised the teacher, but she was nonetheless pleased and called his name, "Alright, you will take the first part, and Pan Bo will take the second part."

Huo Feng immediately slapped Pan Bo on the head, forcibly pulling Pan Bo back from the sweet clutches of slumber.

As Pan Bo came to, he smacked his lips twice, looking around a bit dazed with half of his face flushed and indentations from the book still visible.

Huo Feng pulled on Pan Bo, "Get up, the teacher’s asking you to read the text."

Pan Bo was stable enough and didn’t feel guilty about sleeping in class. He got up as he spoke, grabbed his language arts book and looked straight at the teacher.

Suddenly, the classmates around him let out a suppressed laugh...

And it wasn’t just one student...

"Hahaha!"

The next second, almost the entire class had their eyes on Pan Bo, and the classroom erupted into thunderous laughter.

The language arts teacher had a stern face at first, but with other students laughing so joyfully, she couldn’t help but crack a smile herself, "Ahem, page 42 of the textbook, Huo Feng reads the first section, and you read the second."

Pan Bo scratched his head, turned to page 42, and got ready.

Some students around were still laughing, and Pan Bo didn’t know why.

Huo Feng beside him was also laughing, his shoulders shaking with mirth, which only added to Pan Bo’s confusion!

But no one told him...

Even the language arts teacher didn’t point it out.

As a result, Pan Bo remained unaware of the two king-fu-style whiskers drawn on his face all the way until the class ended.

After school, Huo Feng originally wanted to bravely take credit for his handiwork.

But before Huo Feng had a chance to confess, class advisor Zheng Qiu stepped into the classroom ahead of him and stood at the doorway to call for Huo Feng, "Huo Feng, could you step outside for a moment?"

As Huo Feng walked past Pan Bo, he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Sorry buddy, gotta go first."

"Huh?"

Pan Bo looked up at Huo Feng, even more perplexed.

It wasn’t until Lin Yuhao, sitting in the back row, passed him a mirror that Pan Bo finally realized what had happened during the last class!

"Brother Feng!"

But by the time Pan Bo was ready to explode with anger, the main culprit was no longer in the classroom.

The main culprit... was under the teacher’s protection.

...

Huo Feng had been called to the teachers’ office by Zheng Qiu.

However, the person looking for him was not Zheng Qiu, but his own father, Huo Mingshan.

It was already the lunch break, and aside from Huo Mingshan, there were no other people in the teachers’ office.

After calling over Huo Feng, Zheng Qiu left herself, in a hurry to get to the cafeteria for lunch.

Therefore, Huo Feng had to stay, facing his father very awkwardly, whom he’d had an argument with just last Friday.

However, Huo Mingshan’s purpose in finding him was not to argue.

Although Huo Mingshan’s expression was still sour, when he spoke this time, it was with suppressed emotion.

"Are you certain that you want to continue living with your grandfather and not come home?" Huo Mingshan asked.

Huo Feng’s hands were in his pockets, with an ’I don’t care’ look as he replied, "It’s fine whether I go home or not. Just stop causing trouble, and I can still live with you peacefully."

"What do you mean I cause trouble? What are you saying? You..."

Huo Mingshan nearly lost his temper over Huo Feng’s remark.

Fortunately, he managed to hold back his anger before he was about to burst into yelling.

After taking a deep breath to calm down, Huo Mingshan continued sternly, "I’ll ask you once more, are you coming home or not!"

Huo Feng countered, "Then are you still going to obstruct me and Sangzhi?"

Huo Mingshan stated firmly, "I must obstruct it!"

Huo Feng replied just as firmly, "Then I definitely won’t come home!"

Huo Mingshan said, "Good!"

Huo Feng queried, "Good what!"

Huo Mingshan retorted, "Your clothes, for you!"

Huo Feng: "..."

What on earth...

Why did the topic change so fast?
