Chapter 942: Chapter 924: Sangzhi Misses Huo Feng! (35)
The winter vacation has officially begun.
Pu Sangzhi is in Heilongjiang, Huo Feng in Wenzhou, Zhejiang. The two of them are finally going to spend their only holiday apart since so many years ago.
On the first day that Pu Sangzhi arrived home, she didn’t see her father, because he was really busy and didn’t come home for dinner.
Pu Sangzhi went to sleep at 10 p.m., but Pu Wenhua still hadn’t returned home.
The next morning at 7:30, when she woke up, her mother told her that her father had come home around 1 a.m. and left again at 6 a.m.
In the dining room on the first floor, Pu Sangzhi, Chen Huifen, and Ye Xi were eating together at the table, and the atmosphere was indeed quiet.
Because none of the three were the kind of people who were good at chatting, nor at setting the mood. So, if there were no topics to talk about, the atmosphere was generally more quiet...
Breakfast was plain porridge with side dishes, and Pu Sangzhi asked Chen Huifen, "Mom, after breakfast, is there anything we can do?"
The holiday had begun, and of course, Pu Sangzhi had some plans she wanted to accomplish...
One can’t just stay cooped up at home all day...
"You can do whatever you want."
Chen Huifen said to her, "If you want to go shopping or watch a movie, just go out."
"Mom, I’m not talking about that kind of thing..."
Pu Sangzhi pursed her lips and continued, "I mean, when Dad goes out to work, what do you usually do at home? You can’t just be doing housework all day waiting for Dad to come back, right?"
"It’s not that easy for me."
Chen Huifen picked up an egg for Pu Sangzhi and said, "Hasn’t your dad developed a piece of wasteland? He’s built a farm amusement park there. Your dad has entrusted me with overseeing that place. Although there are no crops in winter, we’re still running the homestay and indoor amusement activities. I have to go there and check it out often, and after breakfast, I have to go. Do you want to come with me?"
"Sure."
Pu Sangzhi nodded, "Mom, where does Dad work every day?"
Chen Huifen replied, "Your dad is at the company every day, or at the construction site. If you want to see him, I can take you to the company, but don’t disturb his work. Oh, Xiaoxi..."
Ye Xi quickly responded, "Aunt Huifen."
Chen Huifen smiled and said, "Your Uncle Pu asked me to tell you that if you want to find him, you should go to the company."
"Okay, I’ll go find Uncle Pu later." Ye Xi said.
Pu Sangzhi found it strange and couldn’t help but ask Chen Huifen, "Mom, why didn’t Dad ask me to go to the company to find him? Does he think I can’t help him?"
"Your dad doesn’t mean that."
Chen Huifen chuckled softly, "He didn’t ask you because he thinks you should spend more time with me. He asked Xiaoxi because he’s worried that it might not be fun for a boy to be with just us two women."
Only then did Pu Sangzhi click her tongue and say, "I see..."
Why did she feel that this reason was a bit far-fetched?
After all, she was a student in the Civil Engineering Department, going to his company could also be a learning experience, right?
He never thought of letting her go to the company to learn a bit...
Pu Sangzhi had been thinking of going to the construction site to learn after coming here!
"So, are the two of you planning to go to the company? Or go with me to the farm?"
Chen Huifen first asked the two of them, "If you want to go to the company, I’ll take you to the company now, and then I’ll go to the farm myself. Anyway, the farm and the company are very close, it doesn’t take long to drive."
"Hmm..."
Pu Sangzhi frowned and fell into thought, wondering whether to go to the farm or the company?
Seeing she was indecisive, Chen Huifen directly asked Ye Xi, "Xiaoxi, where do you want to go?"
Ye Xi glanced at Pu Sangzhi and said, "Let’s see what Sangzhi wants. Wherever she wants to go, I’ll go too."
Thus, the decision-making power was back in Pu Sangzhi’s hands...
After some serious thought, Pu Sangzhi decided, "Let’s go to the company, I want to see Dad. We can go to the farm with Mom tomorrow~"
"Alright."
Chen Huifen didn’t mind, "Hurry and finish your breakfast, and I’ll drive you to the company first, then I’ll go to the farm."
"Okay, Aunt Huifen." Ye Xi nodded.
And so, the plan was set.
...
After breakfast, Pu Sangzhi and Ye Xi got into Chen Huifen’s car, and she drove them to the company.
Before the weather got cold, she usually traveled by electric bike. But after it got cold, the family bought a car. It was a second-hand car, costing just over ten thousand, and they bought two, very cheap.
After getting in the car, Pu Sangzhi instinctively took the passenger seat, enjoying the feeling of her mother driving her.
Ye Xi sat in the back seat...
"Mom, when did you learn to drive?" Pu Sangzhi suddenly thought to ask.
"A long time ago."
Chen Huifen replied with a smile while driving, "I learned back then, but your dad’s company was booming and he was worried it might be unsafe, so he hired a driver. After so many years, it wasn’t easy to pick it up again, I practiced for about a month to get the hang of it. What, are you thinking of learning too?"
"I don’t have that idea."
Pu Sangzhi shook her head, then suddenly thought of Huo Feng and laughed, "Huo Feng is planning to learn to drive. I wonder if learning to drive is difficult; he said a few days ago that he would learn in two weeks, but he might have to eat his words~"
"Chatting about him, do you miss him?"
Chen Huifen teased Pu Sangzhi, "Have you never been apart from him?"
After all, Chen Huifen is Sangzhi’s mother, and her questions have always been sharp...
They still are now...
Pu Sangzhi was directly embarrassed, lowered her head, and then said softly, "We’ve never been apart. But, it’s good to be apart occasionally..."
"Yes, it’s good to be apart occasionally."
Chen Huifen laughed, "But I don’t think it will be long before Xiaofeng can’t wait and runs over to see you."
"Mom!"
Pu Sangzhi was shocked by Chen Huifen’s words again, "How did you guess so accurately? He actually said he’d come over in a while..."
"Haha..."
Chen Huifen couldn’t help but laugh, glanced at her and said, "It’s not that I guessed accurately, it’s that I know his heart. Xiaofeng has always made me feel at ease. I’m telling you, with you both at the same university, I am very relieved! Even if you don’t call me, I feel at ease. Because I know Xiaofeng will take good care of you, he cares about you more than I do!"
Hearing such words from someone else, Pu Sangzhi felt immensely lucky.
Indeed, Huo Feng is a reassuring person...
Not only to her but also to her mother.
Pu Sangzhi found herself missing Huo Feng more and more...
Even though they had just been apart for a short time...
And with such a topic, Ye Xi had no way to join in.
Sitting in the backseat, Ye Xi remained silent, quietly listening and taking it to heart.
He could sense Sangzhi’s feelings for Huo Feng and also Chen Huifen’s high regard for him.
Ye Xi knew, Huo Feng was indeed remarkable.
Huo Feng had captured everyone’s hearts...
Even he couldn’t find a flaw in Huo Feng.
...
A short while later, Chen Huifen brought the two of them to Pu Wenhua’s company. She dropped them off at the company entrance and then drove away.
Pu Wenhua’s small company had an unremarkable facade, nor was it luxuriously decorated, like an old-toned company.
This wasn’t the kind of company Pu Sangzhi imagined, but she still thought it was nice!
Though not luxurious, it was clean and tidy, with everything necessary.
Upon entering the company, Pu Sangzhi found that the space inside was quite large, though the decor was still not luxurious, it was basic cement work, with standard white walls.
There wasn’t much design effort put into the decor, you could say it was a very simple company.
Compared to the impression of the company she remembered visiting as a child, the one her father opened in Shanghai, this company was quite modest...
As Pu Sangzhi and Ye Xi walked in, the receptionist immediately recognized them and bowed, greeting, "Mr. Pu is on the second floor. Miss, sir, please go in."
"Thank you."
Finally, she heard someone call her father ’Mr. Pu’...
It’s a title she hadn’t heard in years.
Entering the company, Pu Sangzhi felt a surreal sense of time reversing...
However, everything around her reminded her that this wasn’t a return, but a fresh start...
This was her father’s second beginning after a hard fall...
This is the spirit of a Tsinghua person...
