Pampered by the School Bully-Chapter 226 - 220, Sangzhi, let’s discuss the appointment! (2)

Huo Feng hurried to the bathroom, stood in front of the mirror, and ran his hands through his hair...

He did this only to check where his hairline was now?!

Without a doubt, Huo Feng was scared by Huo Mingshan.

At the mere age of 18, he had already started worrying about his hairline.

Huo Feng kept lifting his hair, looking at his not-so-high hairline and his thick, glossy black hair, he sighed with relief but also couldn’t help but tense up, "I won’t really go bald in the future, will I?"

Huo Feng was so image-conscious, a man who could be more meticulous than a woman when primed!

Looking at his young and handsome reflection, Huo Feng couldn’t bear to imagine himself with a bald head in the future.

"Oh my god..."

Huo Feng ran his hands through his hair a couple more times, grabbing and pulling at the short hair on top of his head...

Fortunately, his hair still felt pretty solid when he touched it. It looked black and glossy too...

At a glance, it seemed it could hold up for 30 years.

Ptui!

30 years is not enough!

He did not want to go bald for the rest of his life! Not even when he’s old!

He’d rather have a head full of handsome white hair than to expose his shiny scalp!

"Tsk, tsk, tsk... Damn old Huo, such poor quality genes... How miserable to be your son!"

Huo Feng couldn’t help but complain about Huo Mingshan, "Ah Xi... Single eyelids are bad enough, don’t inherit baldness too. I can show my face with single eyelids, but if I go bald, I’ll have to wear a wig for life."

Thus, Huo Feng murmured to himself in the mirror.

All these complaints were overheard by Shen Nuan standing at the bathroom door.

Shen Nuan stood there with her arms crossed, looking like she was enjoying the show, and she raised her eyebrows at Huo Feng, "My dear nephew~"

Through the reflection in the mirror, Huo Feng saw Shen Nuan and said irritably, "What do you want!"

Shen Nuan’s lips curled into a smile, "I’ve heard that baldness has a high rate of inheritance!"

Huo Feng: "..."

Shen Nuan: "And if I remember correctly, your brother-in-law’s father has a Mediterranean hairline, right?"

Huo Feng: "..."

Shen Nuan: "It’s okay, my dear nephew. You can just shave your head before you start going bald, like Xu Zheng or Zhang Weijian! With your features, a bald head might not look bad!"

Huo Feng’s eyes were filled with murderous intent...

Shen Nuan couldn’t resist scratching the lion’s back, continuing, "Wasn’t there a popular ascetic monk on TikTok recently? I think you could imitate him!"

"Are you asking for death?"

Turning around, Huo Feng twisted his neck and clenched his fists as big as clay pots, his tone icy, "Come here on your own, or when I catch you, you’re dead!"

"Er..."

Shen Nuan lost her nerve, stepped back, and when Huo Feng wasn’t paying attention, she retreated like the wind!

"Brother Hao! Save me!"

"You’re so done!"

...

Before they knew it, the next week arrived.

The second monthly exam of the semester was finally upon them.

Huo Feng had been preparing for this second monthly exam for a long time!

This time he had put in more effort than before, and naturally, his goal was much harder to reach than last time!

It’s known that moving from rank 600 to 400, although a difference of 200 ranks, is not so hard.

But climbing from rank 400 to 250, though only 150 spots apart, is genuinely difficult!

The higher the rank, the higher the score needed, and although the score gap becomes smaller, it becomes harder to achieve!

The exams began on Wednesday morning and ended on Friday afternoon, spanning three days with 10 subjects to test.

For this exam, Huo Feng was assigned to Class 1 of the first year, the class where Pu Sangzhi used to be. However, when he sat down in this classroom, Pu Sangzhi was no longer there.

Early in the morning, Huo Feng had two eggs and a fried dough stick, wishing himself a perfect score.

When he arrived at the classroom for Class 1 of the first year, as soon as he entered the room, he felt the air was filled with the aura of top students!

Huo Feng was very confident in this monthly exam!

Even before the exam started, he was already certain he would rank within the top 250.

After all, he was sitting in a spot where top students had sat!

This classroom was like being possessed by the god of exams, and Huo Feng felt high-spirited in the morning, believing that everything would go smoothly in this monthly exam!

Because the start was so smooth! So smooth that he felt in great form!

The first subject was Chinese.

And, coincidentally, the invigilating teacher for this classroom... was Zheng Qiu!

Huo Feng’s homeroom teacher.

So for Huo Feng, this arrangement was simply exploding with good fortune!

Huo Feng felt that even the heavens were helping him! The Almighty was lending him a hand!

Everything went smoothly as soon as he opened his eyes in the morning...

All good wood...

Achieving rank 250 is a piece of cake!

Standing at the podium, Zheng Qiu announced the exam rules, and with the bell ringing to signal the start of the test, she began to distribute the papers.

As Zheng Qiu approached Huo Feng, she looked down and gave him a meaningful glance.

The meaning in her eyes was, ’Be good during this exam! No cheating!’

But to Huo Feng, her look meant, ’Go for it! You are my proudest student!’

Huo Feng nodded in response, his pursed lips forcefully replying, ’I can do it! I’m capable! Here I come!’ frёewebnoѵēl.com

Zheng Qiu’s eyebrow shot up in confusion at Huo Feng’s odd expression.

Then, the exam officially began.

The moment the test was handed out, Huo Feng grabbed his pen and began to furiously scribble away...

The only sound was his pen’s friction against the paper, loud, excited, and so overdone!

In the whole classroom, it was when Huo Feng was writing that one felt his pen was literally hammering the paper!

Huo Feng’s eyes widened, and he wrote with a fierce, angry passion!

In his mind, he really was screaming: Ah! Write! Crush the General of Chinese! Topple the Lord of Chinese City! Conquer Chinese City! Write!

Because of Huo Feng’s intense fervor, Zheng Qiu’s attention was completely drawn to him.

She frowned and opened her mouth, now and then adjusting her gold-rimmed glasses, her expression one of utter bewilderment as she looked at Huo Feng.

When the loud sounds from Huo Feng ceased, Zheng Qiu made a point of patrolling the room, walking up to him and glancing down...

Immediately! She was gobsmacked!

What the heck was this idiot scribbling on the draft paper?!

Topple the Lord of Chinese City?

Conquer Chinese City?

I am the King of Chinese?...

"Ahem!"

Zheng Qiu rapped her hand on the desk and deliberately cleared her throat twice, "Focus on your exam."

Finally, Huo Feng picked up the test paper, covered the draft paper with it, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled...

Yo-heave-ho!

The enemy forces are 5 seconds from entering the battlefield! The troops’ fighting spirit is ignited!

Ready to go, let the battle commence!

Meanwhile, at the very same time in Class 1-6, Pu Sangzhi had completely plunged into exam mode.

In just ten minutes, Pu Sangzhi had finished one side of the test paper and was already onto the second.

The proctoring teacher passed by Pu Sangzhi and gave her several lingering looks, taking in her focused demeanor.

Pu Sangzhi is the top student in the city, known to almost all teachers in the school. Besides, she is extremely good-looking, her delicate beauty a picturesque stillness...

This male proctor spent much of the exam frequently checking on Pu Sangzhi, nodding and smiling approvingly at her.

...

Thus, over three days, both Huo Feng and Pu Sangzhi faced the exams with such attitudes and finally wrapped up their ten tests.

When the exams ended on Friday, Huo Feng walked Pu Sangzhi home.

All the way, he wouldn’t stop boasting, endlessly praising himself and his prowess!

Huo Feng’s overflowing confidence made it seem as if he had already secured the 250th rank, even appearing somewhat dismissive of it.

Pu Sangzhi listened to his bragging, simultaneously speechless and slightly amused...

Because he was genuinely entertaining to listen to, and his exaggerated tones made every sentence sound comical.

Upon reaching her home, as Pu Sangzhi took out her keys to unlock the door, Huo Feng stood behind her, hands in pockets, a smirk playing on his lips, "Can I come early tomorrow? Is eight o’clock okay?"

Pu Sangzhi, without turning back, asked, "Why?"

Huo Feng chuckled in response, "I’m going to work on a detailed date plan tonight, and I want to discuss it with you early tomorrow."

"Hey..."

Pu Sangzhi, at a loss for words, turned to him, "Can we talk about this kind of thing after the results are out?"

"They’ll be out by Sunday evening!"

Huo Feng leaned in closer, a beaming smile on his face, "Besides, next Monday is Christmas Eve, and Tuesday is Christmas Day. I’ve already planned both days and have surprises for you. I think we should make it next Saturday for our date! Let’s get to it as soon as possible!"

Pu Sangzhi couldn’t understand what there was to be excited about.

Huo Feng seemed genuinely happy.

All she could do was nod, "Whatever, plan it yourself."

Huo Feng continued, "So I’ll come early tomorrow, okay?"

Pu Sangzhi: "Nine o’clock. It’s getting cold, and I want to sleep in."

Huo Feng: "No worries, I’ll wait for you here early."

Pu Sangzhi: "Don’t you dare wait in front of my door; the steps are cold."

Huo Feng: "It’s alright, I don’t mind waiting!"

Pu Sangzhi: "Fine, eight... but you’re not to wait here."

Huo Feng chuckled, "Aww, you do care about me..."

Pu Sangzhi immediately felt goosebumps rise!
