Pampered by the School Bully-Chapter 201: Excited: Witnessing Sangzhi changing clothes! (1)

Huo Mingshan pulled out a large bag of clothes from under his desk and kicked it over to Huo Feng.

"These are your heavy clothes, coats, and down jacket. You didn’t pack them, so your mom did," Huo Mingshan said expressionlessly.

Huo Feng hadn’t really expected that Huo Mingshan had called him over to give him clothes.

At that moment, Huo Feng felt a bit of warmth in his heart, and his dislike for Old Huo diminished somewhat.

"Alright, seeing as you went out of your way to bring me clothes, I’ll reluctantly accept them."

Huo Feng bent down and picked up the large bag of clothes.

Just as he hesitated whether he should thank his father, suddenly, Huo Mingshan spoke up, "Hmph, if your mom hadn’t shoved them into my car, I wouldn’t have bothered bringing them. It’d be better if you froze to death!"

The flicker of emotion that had arisen in Huo Feng’s heart instantly extinguished.

Goodbye Old Huo...

Take care Old Huo...

The father-son bond is broken...

Huo Feng, holding the clothes, retorted without good humor, "Then you’re going to be disappointed, just yesterday I got a new scarf, I won’t be freezing this winter!"

After saying that, Huo Feng turned and left, carrying the clothes.

His departing figure was striking, but in Huo Mingshan’s eyes, it was especially irritating.

Huo Mingshan always thought this damn kid, even the way he walked was lousy!

He looked unsavory, not at all proper!

It reminded him of when Huo Feng was a child and he was too busy with work to care for him, so he almost daily had to leave him at someone else’s house for the day, only picking him up after his afternoon classes were over.

Sometimes he’d think of bringing him to his parents’ house; other times, when his parents were too busy, he could only leave him with Shen Jianhua...

So, you see, Huo Feng was influenced by three different places from a young age.

Although, Huo Mingshan did spend evenings, weekends, and holidays with Huo Feng, guiding him hands-on.

But Shen Jianhua’s societal influence was too strong, and Huo Mingshan could clearly tell that Huo Feng’s personality being the way it was, was inseparable from Shen Jianhua.

And yet, Huo Mingshan was wary of Shen Jianhua.

Considering the generational relationships and Shen Jianhua’s social influence, as well as his explosive temper, Huo Mingshan hardly dared make a scene in front of Shen Jianhua, nor dare to lose his temper in front of him.

Because of this, Huo Feng’s personality increasingly resembled that of Shen Jianhua during his upbringing.

So much so that, after Huo Feng entered middle school and went through his rebellious teenage period, he was completely given up on by Huo Mingshan.

Even now, Huo Mingshan had no intention of seriously teaching Huo Feng anymore.

Especially after Huo Feng’s Junior High graduation, when he caused a fight.

This incident completely cooled Huo Mingshan’s heart towards Huo Feng, branding him from then on as a bad student who was just coasting through life.

This impression, to this day, has not changed.

...

This week, a sudden cold snap quickly stirred up a negative reaction in the school— the flu!

Within a few days, quite a few students had caught colds, were coughing, and had fevers...

One person fell ill, infecting a second, and the second infected a third; like a chain reaction, soon half the class was sick.

The school doctor, Han Chenchao, treated too many students with colds and fevers in just three days.

Seeing the situation worsening, the school doctor, Han Chenchao, suggested the school close for two days, allowing students to leave on Wednesday and then take Thursday and Friday off in addition to the weekend— four days in total to go to the hospital for a blood test to see if there was a flu virus outbreak.

Indeed, within just a few days, a good number of people fell ill, including several teachers.

This situation was taken seriously by the school authorities. The school management also issued a temporary notice, allowing students to go home after class on Wednesday.

However, while announcing a holiday for all students, the school leadership also stated that if the flu was under control by next week, then the two days of rest would have to be made up the following weekend.

In that case, classes would have to continue from the following Monday right up to the Friday after next, as if there had been no break at all.

So, this emergency notice was not good news for the students.

What was particularly bad was that Pu Sangzhi started coughing and had a runny nose.

In her dormitory, the first to fall ill was Zhu Dandan, followed quickly by signs from Pu Sangzhi.

Pu Sangzhi thought it might have been because she drank water from the same glass as Zhu Dandan last night— saliva transmission?

Anyway, Pu Sangzhi recognized that she too was starting to show signs of being sick.

Therefore, starting the holiday on Wednesday was good news for her.

She could go home and rest well, while taking care of her illness.

Huo Feng took her home as usual, and on the way, he noticed she kept sniffing and occasionally coughing.

She looked in very bad shape...

Huo Feng’s heart ached for her.

He pulled off his own scarf, forcibly trying to wrap it around her, but Pu Sangzhi pushed him away.

She said, "Don’t give me your things. The air I breathe out is full of the virus. Being too close to me will get you infected."

"It’s okay, I’m not afraid."

Huo Feng insisted on wrapping his scarf around Pu Sangzhi, but Pu Sangzhi adamantly refused and kept pushing him away.

"I told you not to give it to me, if you keep doing this I’ll get angry."

After pushing Huo Feng away, Pu Sangzhi turned her head to the side and coughed twice.

She felt her throat was extremely uncomfortable, which showed how fast her illness was progressing.

When she woke up this morning, her throat felt slightly uncomfortable, so she drank three cups of boiled water to try to relieve the discomfort. By noon, her throat was blocked, and her nose had started to run...

Pu Sangzhi couldn’t concentrate on her afternoon classes; her head felt heavy and foggy, as if there were voices calling from inside.

Fortunately, she had already prepared for these lessons the night before, so even though she didn’t pay attention in class, it didn’t have much impact.

Pu Sangzhi was grateful that the school had decided to let her go home immediately, giving her time to take care of her body.

Otherwise, she feared she wouldn’t be in a state to listen to Thursday and Friday’s classes.

Huo Feng saw her sickly face and felt terribly heartbroken.

He suggested, "Let me take you to see a doctor. Once you get home, won’t it be inconvenient for you to go out? Why don’t I take you now?"

Pu Sangzhi waved her hand dismissively, "No need. It’s just a cold. I have medicine at home."

Huo Feng wasn’t reassured, "Why not just visit the nearby clinic, maybe get an IV, it’ll be faster."

Pu Sangzhi still waved him off, "No need. I just want to go home now and lie down to sleep. I don’t even want to walk anymore."

Huo Feng then said, "I can carry you."

Pu Sangzhi refused, "Really, no need. You should be staying away from me right now, I don’t want to infect you."

Huo Feng sighed, "I’m truly not afraid."

But Pu Sangzhi was very firm, "Stop talking into my ear. I just want to go home, immediately. Is that okay?"

Seeing her so determined, Huo Feng didn’t dare say anything more.

Fortunately, her house was close to the school.

It didn’t take long for them to arrive.

Pu Sangzhi knocked on her family’s door, and Chen Huifen came from inside to unlock the inner lock, while Pu Sangzhi unlocked the outer one.

"Mom, I’m home."

After unlocking both doors, Pu Sangzhi stepped inside...

Huo Feng, feeling uneasy, stood at her doorstep, craning his neck to look inside.

Pu Sangzhi probably wasn’t feeling very well, as she went straight past Chen Huifen, with her backpack still on, and walked back to her room.

Chen Huifen turned to look at her, puzzled by her condition.

At that moment, Huo Feng explained her confusion, "Auntie, Sangzhi might be sick. Our school had a flu outbreak, so we were dismissed early."

"What?"

Chen Huifen was startled.

Huo Feng quickly added, "Auntie, may I come in?"

Chen Huifen couldn’t just leave him outside, so she quickly stepped aside to let him in.

Once inside, Chen Huifen closed the door and locked both sturdy locks again.

As Chen Huifen was still figuring out what to do, Huo Feng suddenly asked her, "Auntie, do you have cold medicine and a thermometer?"

Chen Huifen nodded rapidly, "Yes, yes, yes, I’ll get them right now."

With that, she hurried to the kitchen, with Huo Feng following behind.

"Auntie, and hot water. Oh, and if you have Tylenol, it might be good to take one as a preventive measure."

Huo Feng babbled behind Chen Huifen, expertly suggesting these household remedies.

Chen Huifen quickly poured hot water and fetched the medicine, with Huo Feng helping alongside.

It wasn’t long before they had prepared the hot water, medicine, and thermometer. Huo Feng hurried with these items to Pu Sangzhi’s room.

His hands full, he couldn’t knock on the door when he reached it. Assuming Pu Sangzhi was probably asleep by now, Huo Feng used his shoulder to push the door open.

"Sangzhi, I’ve brought you..."

He was about to say he had brought her medicine, but as the door opened, Huo Feng froze...

Because he saw Pu Sangzhi, who was in the midst of changing into her pajamas, half-naked, her enticing shoulders and firm back visible...

Suddenly, his blood rushed to his head!

Just then, Pu Sangzhi turned at the sound, revealing more than intended!

"Ah—!"

Thus, she couldn’t help but scream...
