Chapter 961: Chapter 943: Brother Feng Isn’t Jealous! (Part 2)
"Hmm?"
Seeing Pu Sangzhi sending a message to Ye Xi, Huo Feng suddenly sat up straight and leaned close to her, his eyes wide open as he looked at her phone.
The sense of presence was certainly strong...
Pu Sangzhi couldn’t ignore him suddenly appearing in the corner of her eye. She pulled her head back and looked at him, only to find Huo Feng squinting his eyes at her with a ’What are you doing?’ expression...
At that moment, her chat interface was already exposed to him, so she didn’t try to hide it.
She simply showed him her phone screen directly and whispered into his ear, "I’m using my dad’s WeChat to contact him because I’m worried."
Ye Xi had been gone for several days. Today was New Year’s Eve, and after midnight, it would be the first day of the lunar New Year...
On such a day of family celebration, with the warm atmosphere in Pu Sangzhi’s home, she naturally felt guilty towards Ye Xi.
Because at that time, Ye Xi had left a letter and departed after experiencing the rejection of his confession.
At the beginning of the winter vacation, the two of them had come here together and had originally agreed to return to school together after the Spring Festival.
Who would have thought that such a thing would happen during this time? Pu Sangzhi’s feelings of guilt towards Ye Xi were indescribable.
So, amid the warm and lively atmosphere, she quietly sent messages to Ye Xi, wanting to know where he was today and how he was doing?
If he was lonely by himself, she could chat with him.
Of course, she couldn’t use her own WeChat. Because she knew she couldn’t give Ye Xi any more hope, she used her father’s WeChat account.
And for the past few days, Pu Sangzhi had been using her father’s WeChat account to send messages to Ye Xi.
Ye Xi wasn’t always unresponsive; he would reply to her father’s WeChat with a message from time to time, letting him know that all was well.
This way, Pu Sangzhi felt a bit more at ease, and so did Pu Wenhua and his wife.
Tonight was the same...
The atmosphere at her home was lively.
The six members of her family were enthusiastically talking about the happy news of her and Huo Feng, which reminded Pu Sangzhi of Ye Xi, who was alone outside, so she sent him a WeChat message in her father’s name.
Huo Feng, after hearing her say this, felt rather uncomfortable in his heart!
You see, he’s always had a heart as big as a chicken liver! He’s a very jealous person!
However, at this critical juncture, Huo Feng knew he couldn’t be jealous at random.
Because, on New Year’s Eve, Ye Xi was wandering alone outside—it was indeed quite pitiful.
If Huo Feng got irrationally jealous in such a situation, Pu Sangzhi would probably get angry in a bit.
Huo Feng refrained from being jealous because he was mindful of Pu Sangzhi’s feelings!
So, he softly said to Pu Sangzhi, "Where is he now? Should we drive to bring him back?"
Pu Sangzhi shook her head and replied softly to Huo Feng, "He’s already back in Beijing. He said he went out for a change of scenery, but actually, he’s been on the way back to Beijing these past two days. I think, maybe he’s missing the two cats in the dormitory."
Many times, people who are alone keep pets just to have some company.
Because he is lonely...
He feels lonely when he’s alone...
Pu Sangzhi thought, maybe that’s how Brother Ye Xi is feeling right now.
He surely wants to go back to Beijing to find his cats...
Because he really likes those two little cats that cling to him, and he also enjoys the feeling of coming back from the lab, opening the dormitory door, and seeing the cats.
Pu Sangzhi felt rather fortunate that, when she found the cats, she sent them to Ye Xi’s dormitory, which could be considered a form of companionship.
"Oh~"
Huo Feng nodded, "So he’s gone back to Beijing, huh."
Just as he finished speaking, the phone in Pu Sangzhi’s hand beeped with a message from Ye Xi.
Both Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng looked down and saw Ye Xi’s reply to Pu Wenhua on WeChat: [Uncle Pu, I’m almost at the school. Don’t worry about me. I’m doing just fine. Happy New Year in advance. I’ll stop here; my phone is out of battery.]
Seeing Ye Xi’s reply, Pu Sangzhi felt much more at ease.
She immediately used her father’s usual tone to reply to Ye Xi on WeChat: [Make sure to rest well when you get to the dormitory, take care of yourself, and Happy New Year.]
After replying, Ye Xi naturally didn’t send another message back.
Pu Sangzhi calmly put away her phone and glanced at Huo Feng with an expression.
"Sigh~"
Huo Feng sighed, lifting his hand to pat her head, "Okay, relax now..."
Pu Sangzhi chuckled softly, leaned back in her chair, and gazed at the ceiling for a while, then turned to watch the Spring Festival Gala for a bit...
In fact, she wasn’t really watching anything; she had a lot on her mind but held back from expressing it.
While Pu Sangzhi’s attention was still on the TV, Huo Feng quickly picked up his own phone and secretly sent a WeChat message to Minal: [Xinjiang Xiaomai! Urgent report! Your Ye Xi godsman is about to arrive at the Tsinghua campus, returning to the dormitory to snug with his cats! It’s time to show your strength!]
The moment Huo Feng’s message went out, Minal at Beijing Tsinghua quickly exited the Douyin app and logged onto WeChat to check his message!
Then, with trembling fingers, she replied to Huo Feng: [Really? Didn’t you say he was wandering everywhere? (Disdain emoji)]
This woman, Minal, was getting better and better at pretending recently...
Clearly, she wanted to see Ye Xi, couldn’t let go of Ye Xi, yet she insisted on adding such useless emojis to prove she had no feelings for Ye Xi—so dishonest!
However, Huo Feng couldn’t bother with her inner thoughts; he just wanted to quickly push Ye Xi out!
Of course, Huo Feng didn’t know that other girls were also chasing Ye Xi; he only knew Minal liked Ye Xi, so he wanted to push Minal towards him!
So, Huo Feng sent another WeChat message to Minal: [He’s practically a wanderer out there! It’s past midnight, and he’s not even home yet! You should seize this rare chance to see your wandering godsman! Strike while he’s vulnerable and... well, you know!]
In the world of emotions, there’s a rule that often makes people fall...
Which is: Strike while she’s (he’s) weak!
In everyone’s life, there are always times of setbacks and low points. In the process of pursuing someone, if you can seize the time when someone desperately needs companionship and be there for them, this pursuit is probably halfway to success!
Although this kind of affection might be mistaken as being moved...
But for those perpetual icebergs, being moved is also a kind of emotion! Being moved is better than no reaction!
So, Huo Feng encouraged Minal to seize this rare opportunity and go express her love!
Just like back then, when Huo Feng stayed by Pu Sangzhi’s side during her family’s crisis.
And a recent example where Gu Erhao took advantage of a girl’s leg injury to make his move!
These are all living examples!
Soon, Minal understood the lesson Huo Feng wanted to teach her.
With excitement, she typed in a snobbish manner from Beijing: [Alright, I’ll just casually take a look then. But I’m not really eager to grab this opportunity; I just want to see how miserable he looks! As you know, I’ve long since let him go from my heart; I don’t care about him at all!]
Huo Feng: [Suit yourself! Get dressed and go!]
Minal: [Oh... It’s freezing outside!]
Huo Feng: [Go out even if it’s cold!]
Minal: [I’ll wear a few more layers. Is he there yet? Where is he now?]
Huo Feng: [He’s at the school entrance; hurry up!]
Minal: [Okay, okay...]
In truth, Huo Feng didn’t actually know where Ye Xi was.
He just said it offhandedly to rush Xinjiang Xiaomai!
Of course, Huo Feng didn’t know if what he was doing was right or wrong; he just wanted to do it.
Pu Sangzhi wasn’t aware of all the things Huo Feng had said to Minal privately; her attention was already on the Spring Festival Gala...
Of course, she wasn’t watching TV; she was just staring at it absent-mindedly...
Pu Sangzhi was thinking that with the New Year coming, she must resolutely stop contacting Brother Ye Xi.
Until Brother Ye Xi gets married, she would cleanly disappear from his world...
But, she still felt quite regretful.
Because she lost a brother.
...
In Beijing, at 10:30 PM...
Ye Xi got out of the taxi, carrying his suitcase, and walked into the deserted campus.
On New Year’s Eve, the campus was deserted; he was the only one walking along the long campus road.
Ye Xi not only felt lonely once...
