Chapter 992: Chapter 978: Fengge’s Kryptonite! (Part 2)
After a good while, Yong Mu finally realized what he had said just now.
He had originally intended to say the three words "I’m sorry," but somehow, the confession just slipped out...
When he came to his senses, his face showed an undeniable awkwardness, and he immediately stammered, "I... I was just distracted... I don’t know what I said... I miss-spoke..."
Mu Mu knew he didn’t misspeak; he was only trying to hide it.
He definitely likes her...
It must be that kind of romantic feeling...
Otherwise, those four sensitive words wouldn’t so casually spill from a friend’s lips.
Mu Mu quietly looked at him, her lips slightly pursed; she was actually a bit at a loss...
She certainly already knew his feelings, but she didn’t know what to say to him next.
So after several minutes of silence, Yong Mu had to speak to break the quiet, "I didn’t expect my sister to come today, and I couldn’t get her to leave, so I had to let her stay... But don’t worry, she won’t say anything inappropriate. She stayed because she likes Brother Feng, because she’s his fan."
"Mm..."
Mu Mu nodded slightly in response.
"And also..."
While applying medicine for her, Yong Mu glanced up at her, "Are we reconciled now?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Mu looked up at him, and their eyes finally met for a brief moment, and neither avoided the gaze.
Perhaps they had cold shouldered each other for too long, fearing they were truly about to lose each other.
So, they both wanted to end this cold war.
Mu Mu’s lips quietly curved into a smile, and she nodded silently, softly agreeing, "Mm."
She finally agreed to make peace with him...
Yong Mu’s wary face instantly blossomed into a smile, "That’s good... Can we have meals together in the future?"
Mu Mu shook her head, softly saying, "I’ve gotten used to eating with them. I feel more comfortable with girls, so let’s not have meals together..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yong Mu’s smile faltered a bit, less joyful than before, "Alright then."
Mu Mu gazed at the subtle changes in his expression, thinking it was rather adorable.
"Before the break..."
Mu Mu suddenly spoke, "Pu Sangzhi told me a few things, and I think she made a good point. So, I don’t want to lose you as a friend either."
Yong Mu smiled upon hearing this, "What did she say to you?"
Mu Mu replied, "She said good things about you, told me not to easily dismiss you, things like that..."
Yong Mu nodded happily, "She’s really nice. But Brother Feng is great too; he often encourages me to be brave..."
Mu Mu added, "They’re both quite good."
Yong Mu: "Mm."
As they chatted away, these two, surprisingly poor at conversation, engaged each other back and forth for quite some time.
Nowadays, they were constantly praising Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng for their kindness. It’s as if they’d forgotten how they once gossiped in private at the start of the semester about how difficult it was to deal with Pu Sangzhi and Huo Feng...
...
Meanwhile, in the villa’s backyard, groups of young people were bustling in conversation.
The twins were busy slicing and skewering meat, while Huo Feng was occupied at the grill barbecuing, the girls gathered around a long table chatting away...
The backyard was filled with music, Huo Feng’s phone played tunes, adding to the moment’s atmosphere.
This comfortable ambiance truly has the essence of a Party!
At this time, Pu Sangzhi and three other girls were discussing travel-related topics, just happening to talk about their hometowns, landing on Minal’s home in Xinjiang...
Minal, who’s quite the talker, was excitedly sharing stories about her hometown.
Everyone was listening to her, often amused at her engaging storytelling.
However, Yong Xi couldn’t get into the circle with the other girls...
While everyone was laughing at Minal’s stories, Yong Xi sat alone off to the side, hands cupping her face, quietly staring at Huo Feng who was grilling meat.
By now, Huo Feng had taken off his long coat, wearing a black sweater, black trousers, his slender and tall figure accentuated against the black, making him even more lanky...
Indeed, even his physique is at a heartthrob level...
Yong Xi stared at Huo Feng unwaveringly, never seeming to get enough.
Of course, everyone, including surrounding girls, knew her overly focused gaze, as did Huo Feng and the twins.
But no one bothered with her, it could even be said that no one paid any mind to her.
Pu Sangzhi would occasionally glance at her, watching her lovestruck demeanor, snickering internally.
Because Pu Sangzhi knew well, Huo Feng definitely looked down upon Yong Xi, just hasn’t voiced it.
Finally, through Huo Feng’s busy work, the first tray of sizzling barbecue meat emerged.
Huo Feng carried the tray and tongs, turning towards the girls.
"Ah~ Thank you, Brother Feng, for your hard work!"
Minal rubbed her hands graciously, reaching out to take it...
However, Huo Feng bypassed Minal, setting the tray fondly in front of Pu Sangzhi, saying, "The first tray is for my dear wife."
"Mm," Pu Sangzhi nodded slightly.
Beside them, Minal realized immediately, clapping, "Wow, I’m envious of Sangzhi~"
Wei Zixuan promptly caught on, cooperating, "Oh dear, moments like this make having a boyfriend great... They grill meat for you~"
As if deliberately saying it for Yong Xi to hear, trying to startle her that Brother Feng’s actual girlfriend was right there!
Pu Sangzhi could roughly guess their intention, feeling a bit speechless.
Thus, Pu Sangzhi pushed the tray to the center, politely saying, "Let’s all eat together."
"Wifey, you should eat more, you’re too skinny!"
Huo Feng clearly said this deliberately.
Everyone was eagerly treading the path to hurt Yong Xi, each wanting to crack her awake with a hefty blow.
However...
Yong Xi knew Huo Feng had a girlfriend! She even knew the girlfriend was Pu Sangzhi!
But she doesn’t care!
She’s only appreciating the overly captivating handsome face, just like gazing at a celebrity, Huo Feng is her idol...
Of course, she didn’t care how others perceived her! Or what they thought of her! She didn’t care about Pu Sangzhi’s thoughts!
She admired for her own enjoyment, others were irrelevant!
Thus, even with Huo Feng showing affection right before her, Yong Xi still stared intensely at him, bearing no intention to leave.
"Hey, little sis!"
At this moment, Minal couldn’t help it, waving a hand before Yong Xi’s eyes, "Could you not stare at someone else’s boyfriend like that?"
Only thick-skinned Minal could voice what everyone felt!
However, Yong Xi was even thicker-skinned than Minal, retorting directly, "His girlfriend hasn’t said anything yet, what’s it to you! Mind your own business!"
"Huh?!"
Minal, unprepared for the counter, was rendered speechless.
Seeing this, Wei Zixuan spoke, "Your brother is so thin-skinned, how come you, little girl, are so thick-skinned? Do you even understand etiquette or shame?"
Yong Xi sensed the sharpness in Wei Zixuan’s words, but responded without fear, "Can you guarantee your daughter’s character will be like yours? Why meddle in someone’s family? Mind your business!"
"Oh dear..."
Wei Zixuan was also struck dumb by the retort.
Beside them, Lu Youyou was originally a well-behaved girl, unlikely to argue, hence said nothing.
Pu Sangzhi saw it and thought of coming up with a higher-level retort.
But before she could speak, Huo Feng quickly stepped in first, "Hey! Mind your manners, or I’ll toss you in the pool!"
"Alright, I won’t say anything anymore..."
Yong Xi did heed Huo Feng’s words. As soon as he spoke, she quieted down.
Which left everyone around absolutely stunned...
"Listen up! If you keep harassing others rudely, I’ll throw you in the pool!" Huo Feng continued warning, his tone rather stern, sounding anything but playful.
Yong Xi sulked, "Why always threaten me! I didn’t do anything this time! I haven’t broken anyone up..."
Right as she said this, Yong Mu and Mu Mu emerged from the house.
Perhaps, they heard her words...
But they said nothing, only casually walked out from the house.
At this moment in their eyes... most felt they were official!
But in reality, they weren’t... because Yong Mu had retreated again.
