Campus Cultivation Master-Chapter 688 - 0690: Learn and Apply Now [Part 1]

Chu Feng heard Xiaoran’s words and turned to look at her, saying, "After all these years, how come you’ve only saved up fifty thousand for pocket money."

Xiaoran pouted and said, "I’m still a student, okay? Do you think I’m like you, not taking anything seriously?"

Xiaoran’s words left Chu Feng speechless. ƒreewebɳovel.com

Compared to Xiaoran, he indeed was a student who didn’t take things seriously. Students should focus on their studies, but what had he been doing?

"Why are you just standing there? Shouldn’t you ask your master for his opinion? Since when does the butler make all the decisions for the Qi Family?" Chu Feng said.

The butler snapped out of it and hurriedly left to ask Qi Wen for his opinion.

After the butler left, Xiaoran approached Chu Feng and said, "Brother Feng, can we discuss something, please?"

Chu Feng looked at Xiaoran’s sweet smile and said, "Anything but money, okay to talk?"

Upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, Xiaoran pouted and said, "You’re worth billions, why are you still so stingy?"

Chu Feng said, "I’m also wondering, you’re supposed to be a little princess of Yanjing, how can you be so shabby?"

Xiaoran said, "My grandfather won’t give me money, what can I do? Grandpa says, in the Li Family, it doesn’t matter whether you’re a boy or a girl, everyone should live humbly. If you want money, you have to earn it on your own, and you better not take any shortcuts. If grandpa ever finds out, having your legs broken would be getting off lightly."

Chu Feng looked at Xiaoran, who was looking quite pitiable, and said, "Alright, since you’re so pitiable, tell me what you want."

Upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, Xiaoran leaped up excitedly and said, "I want to discuss something with you, about the match you’ll be having later. If you win, could you share a bit more with me?"

Chu Feng said, "Sure. Whatever you win, I’ll make up the difference."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoran’s eyes lit up like little stars.

After pausing for a moment, Xiaoran changed the subject and said, "What if, Brother Feng, you accidentally lose, would you mind covering for me?"

Chu Feng turned to Xiaoran and said, "Hey girl, are you planning to win something for nothing? Heads or tails, it’s yours."

Xiaoran said woefully, "This money is what I’ve saved up to attend the I.L. concert. Grandpa won’t let me ask others for tickets, so I have to buy them myself. You know, the tickets for the best seats at their concerts are being scalped for over twenty thousand now. With this money, I can only afford to go to two concerts."

Chu Feng, with a strange expression, said, "You like I.L. too?"

Xiaoran, immediately excited upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, said, "Brother Feng, you like them too? Then you must understand how I feel."

Chu Feng said, "If that’s the case, then I really can’t refund your money."

Xiaoran said angrily, "Why not? I trust you so much, and you don’t even give me a bit of confidence, you’re bullying a child. I’m going to complain about you to the Children’s Protective Services."

Chu Feng was truly defeated by Xiaoran; the girl was obviously just an ungrown child.

Chu Feng said, "I am the owner of I.L. I will make you a super VIP member, and from now on, you will have the best seats at any concert. No need to buy tickets anymore."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoran excitedly jumped up barefoot, not caring if her dress might reveal too much.

"Brother Feng, are you serious?"

Chu Feng said, "Why would I lie to you? I am the head of Fengjing Group, and Fengjing Entertainment is my business."

Li Xiaoran said, "That’s great, but Brother Feng, could you give this to Zixuan? Zixuan likes them a lot too, and if you give it to Zixuan, my grandfather won’t have anything to complain about."

Chu Feng said, "Sure."

After a pause, Chu Feng, somewhat puzzled, said, "But you two, do you still chase stars?"

Li Xiaoran said, "Just because our family is special doesn’t mean we don’t chase stars. We eat, sleep, and go to school too, you know? Don’t look at us with colored glasses; we try very hard too."

Chu Feng said, "All right. I was wrong, I apologize to you."

Li Xiaoran chuckled and said, "A verbal apology isn’t enough; you have to cover for me too, even if you lose, you can’t lose my money."

Chu Feng was truly defeated by Li Xiaoran, but fifty thousand yuan really wasn’t much to him.

...

"Why have you come back?" Qi Wen asked the returning butler.

The butler said, "Young master, Chu Feng has agreed. But the wager he offers is ten billion!"

Upon hearing the butler’s words, Qi Wen’s hand trembled with his teacup, though not out of fear, but excitement.

Qi Wen’s eyes narrowed as he said, "Ten billion, that’s all of Chu Feng’s fortune. I really want to take him on this bet and defeat him completely in one go. But it’s a pity that no one would agree to such a crazy act. What a missed marvelous opportunity."

The butler didn’t interrupt Qi Wen, but stood silently behind him, waiting for his next command.

After calming his excitement for a while, Qi Wen finally spoke, "Go tell Chu Feng that we’re just betting for fun; let’s make it one billion as the stake."

The butler nodded and said, "Yes, young master."

When the butler left again, a gleam passed through Qi Wen’s eyes.

"If I could use thirty billion, then Chu Feng would undoubtedly be doomed this time." Clearly, Qi Wen was very confident in his tea ceremony skills.

The butler returned to Chu Feng’s room and, after telling him about the bet, Chu Feng was very ’displeased’.

"The bet is too small, it’s not interesting at all. But since I bothered to come, let’s treat it as making some pocket money. Tell him to be ready with three billion. I’ll collect it later," said Chu Feng.

The butler respectfully left and did not return to Qi Wen’s room this time but rather left the hotel directly.

A traitor could not be kept again. However, he had received enough compensation for himself.

Soon, the Tea Battle began. The real origins of the Tea Battle stem from the Han Dynasty. However, it peaked during the Song Dynasty, during which systematic explanations of the Tea Battle emerged.

Tea, utensils, and soup were all tools and weapons used in the competition.

The Tea Battle had been dormant until it resurged in modern times. However, the nature had changed, especially in competitions like this one. It’s more of a performance, and of course, its primary use now is for socializing and gaining benefits.

"Brother Feng, why are you watching so intently? It’s your turn to compete soon, shouldn’t you be preparing?" asked Li Xiaoran, looking at Chu Feng, who was absorbed in watching the Tea Battle.

Chu Feng said, "I am preparing; I am learning."
