Pampered by the School Bully-Chapter 312 - 305. The liking for Huo Feng has nothing to do with personality (3)
Chapter 312: 305. The liking for Huo Feng has nothing to do with personality (3)
First thing in the morning, Pu Sangzhi’s home welcomed rare visitors.
Ye Xi, Ye Qingcao, and their mother Xu Hui...
The family of three suddenly appeared at Pu Sangzhi’s doorstep, bringing with them a pile of gifts.
In her astonishment, Pu Sangzhi hurriedly ushered them inside, and what followed was a round of eager chatting...
The Ye Family and the Pu Family could be said to have entangled emotions.
Back in the day, the two families became acquainted as neighbors due to their enjoyable conversations.
Latter, they grew closer due to business entanglements.
Leaving aside the two unsuccessful men in their families, the relationship between Pu Sangzhi’s mother and Ye Qingcao’s mother had always been good, akin to sisters.
The reason for their separation was simply because Ye Qingcao’s mother divorced Ye Qingcao’s father, and after the divorce was finalized, she took her two children back to Rui’an.
Thus, Ye Qingcao’s mother and Pu Sangzhi’s mother also parted ways.
In the world of adults, separation is always easy.
Because adults have too many helplessnesses, constrained by all sorts of real-life situations.
Although Xu Hui took Ye Qingcao and Ye Xi back to Rui’an, when they heard the news of the company’s bankruptcy, the family of three panicked.
Therefore, after the company went bankrupt, Ye Xi and Xu Hui went one after the other to Shanghai, searching in the vast sea of people for Pu Sangzhi and her daughter.
This feeling had long surpassed neighborly affection.
So now that the Ye Family knew the news of Pu Sangzhi and her daughter, Xu Hui was very eager to come to visit them!
Today, Xu Hui came.
After Xu Hui’s arrival, Chen Huifen was very touched.
The two women had a long talk, sharing their mutual understanding and friendship, as if they had returned to a time when the two families were harmonious neighbors.
Later, Xu Hui suggested that the mother and daughter duo come to their house for the New Year celebration, and Chen Huifen agreed.
So, early this morning, Pu Sangzhi and her daughter were picked up by the family of three.
Pu Sangzhi felt that Huo Feng would come to find her, so she specifically left a note at the door before leaving, telling Huo Feng not to wait for her today.
The reason for this was as such, but at this moment, Pu Sangzhi would not expect that such a small matter would lead to a big deal due to various reasons.
At this moment, around 11 o’clock in the morning, Pu Sangzhi had already been at Ye Qingcao’s home for several hours.
In the kitchen, Xu Hui and Chen Huifen were busy preparing lunch, chatting away happily as friends, and occasionally, their laughter could be heard.
Pu Sangzhi hadn’t heard her mother laugh so happily in a long time...
This kind of laughter was truly joyful, and it was the first time Pu Sangzhi had heard her mother laugh like this since the family troubles began.
Thus, Pu Sangzhi felt relieved.
In the study, where the heater was on, Ye Qingcao was playing with her phone, chatting with Zhu Dandan.
Meanwhile, Pu Sangzhi was reading a book.
Reading was one of her hobbies, and also Ye Xi’s.
Four-fifths of the books on the bookshelf belonged to Ye Xi, who had recommended a famous foreign novel for Pu Sangzhi to read.
Pu Sangzhi was now engrossed in the book, silently reading while nibbling on some fruit.
Ye Xi was sitting next to Pu Sangzhi, focused on his coursework on the computer.
The two sat side by side, while Ye Qingcao lay extravagantly on a recliner beside them. The relaxed and comfortable Ye Qingcao seemed to be from a different world compared to the studious Ye Xi and Pu Sangzhi.
From time to time, Ye Qingcao would turn her head to glance at them, admiring Pu Sangzhi’s beautiful profile and her brother’s equally handsome profile...
Sometimes, Ye Qingcao couldn’t help but sigh...
Because she truly felt that Sangzhi and her brother were a perfect match!
She had felt this way since they were kids...
"Sangzhi..."
Ye Qingcao called out to Pu Sangzhi in her boredom.
On the other side, Pu Sangzhi who was reading a book hummed in response, "Hmm."
Ye Qingcao pouted her lips and said, "Huo Feng and his buddies are playing basketball! Dandan, Miaomiao, and Xiaonuan are also there. Why is it so quiet over here..."
Today, Pu Sangzhi again heard about the presence of Huo Feng from others.
Somehow, just hearing about what Huo Feng was up to made Pu Sangzhi’s lips involuntarily curve upward, and she spoke in a gentle tone, "Do you want to play with them?"
Ye Qingcao rolled over on the recliner, holding her phone and staring at Pu Sangzhi, saying, "I want to hang out with them. But my mom probably won’t let us go out. After all, our two families have finally gathered together~"
"Hmm."
Pu Sangzhi said, "Then let’s find them tomorrow. We have plenty of time."
Ye Qingcao added, "Sangzhi, you’re so calm, and Huo Feng is so active, what do you two even do together?"
In truth, Ye Qingcao thought that Sangzhi and her brother together made a harmonious picture.
Because her brother liked to read, her brother liked quietness.
Pu Sangzhi also liked reading and appreciated quietness.
Originally, their personalities were compatible, and if they could become a couple, it was clear that life would be very harmonious!
But...
Ye Qingcao also had to admit that Brother Huo Feng was an excellent person.
It’s just that, by comparison, Ye Qingcao felt that her brother and Sangzhi were a better match!
Pu Sangzhi had no idea what kind of messy things were going through Ye Qingcao’s little head. She seriously replied to Ye Qingcao, "When I’m with him, we usually study. I talk more when we study, and he subconsciously talks less."
"Oh~"
Ye Qingcao nodded, "So how do you two usually get along? With Brother Huo Feng being such a talker, isn’t it noisy?"
Hearing this, Pu Sangzhi laughed softly, "It is noisy, and I generally ignore him when I tire of it."
See!
Ye Qingcao thought to herself: It was obvious that they weren’t compatible! Sangzhi couldn’t be bothered with Brother Huo Feng!
"Sangzhi, don’t you sometimes find Brother Huo Feng really annoying?" Ye Qingcao daringly asked this question.
However, Pu Sangzhi wasn’t angry but seriously answered her, "Yes, and quite often."
"Ah..."
Ye Qingcao sighed, "You actually find Brother Huo Feng annoying often? Then how do you manage to get along with him?"
It wasn’t until Ye Qingcao asked this question that Pu Sangzhi put down the book in her hands, turned her head, and asked with some confusion, "Xiaocao, what are you trying to ask?"
Ye Qingcao said straightforwardly, "I just wanted to ask what exactly you see in Brother Huo Feng... because, I think your personalities don’t really match!"
Indeed...
She and Huo Feng might have incompatible characters, might not be on the same wavelength when speaking, and might often find Huo Feng annoying.
But that didn’t stop her from liking Huo Feng.
There were so many reasons why she liked him that these issues were no longer a problem at all, they couldn’t affect her feelings for Huo Feng in the slightest.
So, after a moment’s thought, Pu Sangzhi answered Ye Qingcao, "Character isn’t actually that important. Mainly, it’s because he is Huo Feng."
Ye Qingcao didn’t understand, "What do you mean?"
Pu Sangzhi pursed her lips and chuckled lightly, "It means nothing."
After saying that, Pu Sangzhi turned back to continue reading.
Ye Qingcao stared at Pu Sangzhi’s beautiful profile and couldn’t help but sigh.
In Ye Qingcao’s heart, she still felt that Pu Sangzhi and her brother were a great match!
"Brother Ye Xi..."
While flipping through the book, Pu Sangzhi suddenly asked Ye Xi, "Have you finished this book?"
Ye Xi’s gaze moved from the computer screen to her, "I have."
Pu Sangzhi then suggested, "Then can I borrow this book first? There should be a sequel, right? I want to read all of them."
Ye Xi chuckled lightly, "This book has three volumes. You read it first; I’ll find the rest for you later. If you’re interested in this type of book, I can recommend a few more to you."
Pu Sangzhi: "Thank you, brother."
Ye Xi replied, "It’s nothing, don’t be formal with me."
"Sigh!"
Ye Qingcao let out another long sigh, deliberately trying to draw their attention.
And because her sigh was so loud, both Pu Sangzhi and Ye Xi looked at her.
"I feel like I just don’t fit in with you two, are you two from the same world?" Ye Qingcao asked.
Both Pu Sangzhi and Ye Xi laughed.
Pu Sangzhi said, "Then would you like to find a book to read? Join our world?"
Ye Xi said, "Don’t force her, she can’t settle down."
Ye Qingcao "hmpf"-ed, picked up her phone, turned over and faced away from them, muttering to herself, "I’m not talking to you anymore, making me seem like I don’t read books. I’m going to find a novel to read this instant! Immediately logging into QQ Reading!"
Pu Sangzhi and Ye Xi didn’t take Ye Qingcao’s temper seriously, and each went back to their own business.
Seeing that the fruit in the bowl was all eaten by Pu Sangzhi, Ye Xi picked up the fruit tray and stood up, "I’ll go cut some more fruit."
Pu Sangzhi said sheepishly, "I eat too much..."
Ye Xi smiled, "It’s a blessing to be able to eat."
After Ye Xi left the study, Pu Sangzhi took the opportunity to sneak a look at the courseware on his computer desk.
It was an article on engineering physics, with dense content and many technical terms, and Pu Sangzhi read it with only half-understanding.
So this was what Tsinghua’s coursework was like...
Pu Sangzhi thought to herself: It’s no wonder he’s her Brother Ye Xi, still as outstanding as ever.
