Chapter 929: Chapter 911: Stubborn Yet Pitiful Wu Di! (22)
"Huo Feng, she really knows she was wrong. She apologized to you several times yesterday. Actually, she’s not that bad at heart..."
Wu Di today is indeed here to play the peacemaker.
He mainly wants to persuade Huo Feng to forgive You Xinran because You Xinran has been really upset these past two days.
Wu Di has been calling You Xinran and privately sending her WeChat messages, you could say he’s been busy keeping in touch with her...
He even went to wait for her at the business management building today...
He eventually saw her, but she didn’t say a word to him, gave him an unpleasant look, and just walked away.
Later, Wu Di contacted You Xinran on behalf of the club, asking her: The recent "Phantom of the Opera" performance went smoothly, and the financial surplus is out. When will we arrange benefits for the club members?
Only then did You Xinran reply to his WeChat, and her reply was: "Ask if Huo Feng will participate? Ask and then get back to me."
After that, when Wu Di continued sending WeChat messages to You Xinran, she stopped replying altogether!
No matter how many messages Wu Di sent, it was like they vanished into thin air.
Anyway, You Xinran just didn’t want to reply to him.
Later Wu Di reflected and thought she surely wants to reconcile with Huo Feng! That must be the reason!
So Wu Di put in a lot of effort to come and find Huo Feng again.
Huo Feng is obviously much easier to talk to than You Xinran, at least he’s willing to listen to Wu Di speak!
As long as communication is possible, there is still a chance!
Wu Di would never give up any opportunity!
So, even though Huo Feng refused, Wu Di still persuaded earnestly: "You saw the scene that day, right? There were a thousand or so audience members, plus her dad, uncle, and relatives were all sitting there. Everyone in the club knows she’s someone who cares a lot about face. She loves to act strong, does everything meticulously, and wants everything to be perfect. So, at that moment, maybe it was a slip of thought that made her do that to you. But it’s very certain that she was only doing it for the performance."
Wu Di said that last sentence with a guilty conscience!
He actually knows very well that You Xinran likes Huo Feng!
The reason she acted impulsively that day of the performance, Wu Di analyzed, could have been because the plot pushed her to it!
She already liked Huo Feng, and when she saw him confessing to her — although Huo Feng was only portraying a character — she might have believed it in that instant?
A moment of belief led to a moment of impulsiveness! That’s what caused that momentary incident!
So Wu Di can understand her!
The only thing Wu Di can’t understand is, how can Huo Feng, as a grown man, be so petty?
It was just a kiss...
Huo Feng got so angry and made the situation so unmanageable...
If it weren’t for Huo Feng’s own big personality and that You Xinran still cares about Huo Feng, Wu Di wouldn’t bother trying to persuade Huo Feng to return to the club!
But there’s no choice...
Wu Di also can’t bear to see You Xinran so upset and sad, so he has to try to get Huo Feng back first.
But...
Huo Feng refused, "Don’t tell me those dignified words, I’m telling you, I won’t listen to any of it. I have only one thing to say, I’m not going back. I’ve already returned the favor to You Xinran, she knows it herself. Don’t ever say she was lifting me up in the club. I don’t owe her, and she’s caused me a lot of trouble!"
"How could she have caused you a lot of trouble, that’s not fair," Wu Di frowned slightly anxiously, with a bit of anger, "Think about it, since you joined the club this term, how much effort and energy has she spent on you? Those Douyin videos you posted, she spent 2000 yuan promoting each one for you!"
"She spent money?" Huo Feng raised an eyebrow at this.
Damn...
He really thought he got popular based on his own skill...
Turns out his fans were bought!
Why was he told this truth!
"Yes, she’s been continually working to promote you!"
Wu Di raised his tone intentionally when saying this, wanting Huo Feng to know You Xinran has done a lot for him!
If You Xinran had done so much for Wu Di, he wouldn’t know how moved he would be!
Wu Di was genuinely too envious of Huo Feng~
"So what?"
Huo Feng didn’t see the point, "I didn’t ask her to spend that money, although I’m the one who benefited, I passively accepted it. If she had said she would spend money on promotion, I definitely wouldn’t agree, unless she said it came from the club’s funds!"
Wu Di thought to himself: indeed, it was spent from the club’s funds...
Nope, better not tell Huo Feng that!
Wu Di then said, "Huo Feng, don’t be so stubborn. Think about all the good she’s done for you..."
Turning to Pu Sangzhi, Wu Di explained with a nod, "Junior, I don’t mean anything by this, please don’t misunderstand. Xinran appreciates talent, which is why she values Huo Feng."
Even though he explained this way, Pu Sangzhi didn’t find his words reasonable, she merely nodded perfunctorily at him, "Mm. You don’t have to explain, I’m going for a run now."
After saying that, Pu Sangzhi set the treadmill to automatic speed, reset the time, took a deep breath, and began her 1500-meter run.
Huo Feng saw Pu Sangzhi starting to time her 1500 meters, so he said to Wu Di, "I’m going running too. No need to try persuading me, my answer remains the same."
Wu Di anxiously replied, "Don’t... I still have a lot to say to you..."
But Huo Feng also quickly set the treadmill to automatic speed, reset the time, and started timing his 3000-meter run.
Even though Huo Feng was so unwilling to discuss this matter, Wu Di persistently said, "Even if you don’t listen to me, I have to say it. Really... as a grown man, you shouldn’t be so petty. At most, Xinran just did something impulsive, she did it for the show, but she’s done a lot for you. Even if you don’t consider the friendship between you two, at least think about what she’s done for you?"
Busy with running, Huo Feng just glanced at him, maintaining an even breath, and didn’t respond.
"I just wish you’d calm down sooner and return to the club soon," Wu Di continued to urge him, "As you can see, ever since the previous male lead and senior in his fourth year left for an internship and quit the club, there haven’t been any good-looking guys who can sing high notes in our club. That’s why everyone’s rooting for you, Xinran promotes you for this reason. She was wrong this time, but she’s apologized. You’ve vented your anger, and she was directly brought to tears backstage by you, crying for quite a while. I suppose, besides you, probably nobody in her life has ever yelled at her, so it’s not easy for her..."
After that...
Wu Di went on and on for ten more minutes about the good in You Xinran.
In that time, Huo Feng was busy with his 3000-meter run and didn’t say a word to Wu Di.
Although some of the things Wu Di said really did annoy Huo Feng!
Ten minutes later, Huo Feng finished his 3000 meters, slowed the treadmill speed down, and started walking slowly while breathing heavily...
Wu Di promptly handed him a towel and a bottle of mineral water, glancing at his time, "So fast, your sports test score must be perfect."
Wu Di often had to admit, Huo Feng was quite impressive...
"Phew... Thanks... phew..."
Huo Feng opened the bottle of water and first handed it to Pu Sangzhi next to him.
Pu Sangzhi also reached out to take it, taking a big gulp...
Wu Di watched this silently, persistently persuading Huo Feng, "You’re such a good man, being so nice to your girlfriend, why can’t you be more forgiving to others?"
Huo Feng shook his head, wiping his sweat as he said, "Nope. I’m only good to my girlfriend... phew..."
Then, Pu Sangzhi next to him handed back the bottle of water and said, "Pay Wu Di back for the water later."
"Sure thing," Huo Feng said.
"No need to be so formal with me, it’s just a bottle of water," Wu Di said.
Huo Feng took a big gulp of mineral water and furrowed his brows as he replied to Wu Di, "Wu Di, seeing how naive you are, I’ll kindly let you know. My not returning to the club is a good thing, you’ll have a chance to pursue your goddess. If I go back, her eyes might just be on me. I, in any case, don’t want to be under her control or be promoted by her. If you’re so willing, let her promote you!"
Wu Di actually isn’t naive...
What Huo Feng said, he knew all too well in his heart.
But...
He still acted foolishly in emotions even with an unclouded intellect...
"Huo Feng, come back, will you?" Wu Di still said.
