Chapter 184: 178, Old Huo educates the two of them on love! (3)
Without having lunch, Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng were dragged by Huo Mingshan to the office.
Naturally, the incident with those two also caused Huo Mingshan to skip his lunch, utterly ruining his appetite for food!
Inside the teacher’s office at that time, besides the three of them, there was also Zheng Qiu, Huo Feng’s homeroom teacher.
Zheng Qiu had delayed her trip to the cafeteria after her class ran late.
She hadn’t even made it to the cafeteria before she saw Huo Mingshan bringing the two students, Huo Feng and Pu Sangzhi, into the teachers’ office.
As Huo Feng’s homeroom teacher, Zheng Qiu realized that she couldn’t just leave so easily at this time!
Clearly, with her student taken to the office by the segment director, even if Zheng Qiu was completely unaware, she had to step up and take charge of the situation.
Thus, at that moment, a very odd combination of four people was present in the teacher’s office.
Huo Mingshan was Pu Sangzhi’s homeroom teacher, while Zheng Qiu was Huo Feng’s homeroom teacher.
Huo Mingshan was Huo Feng’s father, a fact that, among the four of them, everyone except Pu Sangzhi was aware of.
At the same time, Huo Mingshan was also Zheng Qiu’s superior, and Zheng Qiu dared not offend him.
Given this premise, Zheng Qiu couldn’t be outspoken about the father-son relationship between Huo Mingshan and Huo Feng. She knew that Section Chief Huo Mingshan always considered having this son a shame and would never mention their father-son relationship at school if he could avoid it.
Because of all these considerations and the messy relationships, at this moment in the space with the four of them, each person had their own thoughts, each harboring their respective concerns.
And the central figure who controlled the relationships of these four was Huo Mingshan!
Huo Mingshan was sitting at his office desk with legs crossed loftily, while Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng stood before him with bowed heads, looking as if they knew they were at fault.
Zheng Qiu stood beside Huo Mingshan, pushing up her gold-rimmed glasses, and looked uneasily at the two children in front of her.
After a silent atmosphere, Huo Mingshan broke it...
"You two, what exactly is going on now?"
Huo Mingshan furrowed his brows and questioned Pu Sangzhi, "Sangzhi, didn’t you promise me last time?"
Last time, Pu Sangzhi had promised Huo Mingshan that she would reduce her interactions with Huo Feng.
Pu Sangzhi had been doing just that until today...
Unfortunately, she was caught by Huo Mingshan unexpectedly today, and the act was such an intimate one that not even a hundred explanations could suffice.
Therefore, she didn’t explain. She bowed her head and apologized, "I’m sorry, Teacher Huo."
Huo Feng couldn’t stand to see Pu Sangzhi treated this way. Seeing her scolded by his dad until her head was bowed so low, he couldn’t help but speak up for her, "Section Chief, it was I who offended her just now. She knew nothing, it was me who suddenly picked her up, and she got scared."
Under the circumstances, Huo Feng speaking up for Pu Sangzhi had a certain heroic flair to it.
Consequently, he also inevitably received a scolding from Huo Mingshan, "Do you think I need you to tell me that? Didn’t I just see it myself?! You, you’ve been harassing my student all along! And now you even dare to do so openly! Don’t you have any respect for girls! Degenerate!"
The word ’degenerate’ almost made Zheng Qiu burst into laughter.
But as Huo Feng’s homeroom teacher, it was necessary for Zheng Qiu to side with Huo Feng at this time.
No, she should be siding with Huo Mingshan to protect Huo Feng, indeed!
"Huo Feng, apologize quickly. How can you tease a girl like that in school? If you do something so out of line again, I’ll have to call your parents!" Zheng Qiu deliberately said this.
When she finished speaking, Huo Feng glanced at Huo Mingshan, and Huo Mingshan’s face also stiffened for a moment.
But soon enough, Huo Mingshan’s expression returned to normal, and with a slap on the table, he warned, "Huo Feng, I’m warning you once again, I don’t care about your usual behavior at school! But don’t you dare harass our female classmates! Such behavior today, how undisciplined! And to do it so publicly in the cafeteria, what a bad influence! If the leaders saw this, it wouldn’t just be a simple criticism and education for the two of you!"
Pu Sangzhi was frightened by Huo Mingshan’s words. She quickly bowed her head in apology, "I’m sorry, Teacher Huo."
Meanwhile, Huo Feng apologized with less submission, "Oh, I see my mistake."
"Look at your attitude!"
Huo Mingshan was not satisfied with Huo Feng’s manner of apologizing, "I want you to promise me now that you won’t bother our female classmates anymore! Don’t let me hear about you shamelessly pursuing our female classmates again!"
Huo Mingshan had said these kinds of things many times at home.
If this were at home, Huo Feng wouldn’t listen to his words at all.
Huo Feng would rather risk having League of Legends uninstalled and being chased around the house with a slipper in hand than give up on Pu Sangzhi!
But this wasn’t home.
The middle-aged balding man in front of him wasn’t his old father but their first-year segment director, the so-called Valley Master of Ruthless Valley, legendary for severing romantic ties!
In such a situation, Huo Feng didn’t have a choice but to tell some white lies...
"I got it, just as Section Chief Duan asked, okay?" Huo Feng replied.
"You can’t just agree half-heartedly!"
Huo Mingshan raised a finger, pointing at him solemnly, "If such a thing happens again, and I catch you or hear such rumors, I won’t be polite anymore! I’ll have your homeroom teacher discipline you!"
Zheng Qiu quickly chimed in, "Did you hear that, Huo Feng? Don’t let it happen again. You’re harassing students from other classes. Focus more on your studies, and think less about dating. The school forbids it!"
Huo Feng nodded his head in agreement repeatedly, "Yes—I know I’m wrong, I’ll listen, it won’t happen again, okay?"
Anyone could see that Huo Feng’s attitude was perfunctory.
But since he verbally agreed so readily, it was indeed striking that no one could really do anything about him.
Huo Mingshan gave Huo Feng a glare and then turned his gaze towards Pu Sangzhi.
When he fixed his eyes on Pu Sangzhi, Huo Mingshan’s look softened significantly, and his tone became very friendly, "Sangzhi, you still need to think over what I told you last time."
Huo Feng sneakily glanced at Pu Sangzhi, very curious about what Huo Mingshan had said to Pu Sangzhi last time?
Huo Mingshan noticed Huo Feng’s look and was clearly disgusted by his presence. He then waved Huo Feng away, "You can go out first."
"Eh, you haven’t finished scolding me yet; let me stand here a little longer."
Huo Feng stubbornly refused to leave; he wanted to overhear what his ruthless father would say in front of his goddess.
It surely wouldn’t be anything good! ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
But he still wanted to listen...
"It’s none of your business now, get out," Huo Mingshan said, frowning impatiently.
Huo Feng insisted on staying put, "Our homeroom teacher still has things to say to me, right, Teacher Zheng?"
Zheng Qiu stepped forward, patted his shoulder, and said, "It’s fine, go have your meal."
Huo Feng really felt like cursing...
This feeling of utter helplessness, it’s like no one’s on his side!
"Teacher Zheng, aren’t you going to give me a good talking-to?"
Huo Feng was unusually proactive in seeking punishment, "I harassed someone else’s girl, shouldn’t you keep me back and call my dad, have him come to the school to give me a lesson?"
Zheng Qiu almost burst into laughter at Huo Feng’s words. She turned her head, glanced subconsciously at Huo Mingshan, and replied to Huo Feng, "I’ll just talk to your dad over the phone this afternoon..."
Huo Feng, "Don’t, call him now. He has a lunch break, doesn’t he?"
Zheng Qiu patted Huo Feng’s shoulder, unable to help but laugh, "Alright, that’s enough, go now."
"Teacher Zheng..."
Huo Feng wanted to say more, but Zheng Qiu had already grabbed his school jacket and started pulling him outside.
Soon, Huo Feng was dragged out by Zheng Qiu.
Back in the teachers’ office, Huo Mingshan’s face looked very unpleasant after dealing with Huo Feng’s blunt words!
He took a deep breath to calm his emotions.
Then, Huo Mingshan regained his composure and turned to Pu Sangzhi with a serious voice, "Sangzhi, tell me honestly now, how far have you and that delinquent boy progressed?"
Pu Sangzhi’s heart pounded nervously as she wetted her lips, and it took her a while to respond, "Right now, we’re just friends."
Huo Mingshan looked unconvinced, "What kind of friends? Boyfriend?"
Pu Sangzhi quickly shook her head, "No, not a boyfriend, we’re not dating. Teacher, I said I wouldn’t date in high school, and I won’t!"
Even though she denied it so swiftly, Huo Mingshan still felt uneasy on the inside.
Seeing no one else was in the classroom, he pulled a chair closer for Pu Sangzhi, "Have a seat, I want to have a serious talk with you."
Pu Sangzhi sat down with a stomach full of unease, raising her eyes to look at Huo Mingshan, her heart beating wildly.
She felt a little guilty and a little scared...
"Sangzhi, that Huo Feng boy, he really isn’t the settled type. Being friends with him is quite risky," Huo Mingshan began to disparage his son.
