Chapter 11 Couple

on the street.

Su Xiaoqiang felt that she must have gotten up too fast this morning.

Otherwise, how could she have seen Lu Mingfei walking with Chu Zihang, a legendary figure from Shilan High School who had already graduated?

I've never heard of these two having any personal relationship.

"Little Heavenly Maiden, what a coincidence to run into you here!" Lu Mingfei was a little surprised.

What a coincidence! I came here to find you, we just bumped into each other on the way!

Su Xiaoqiang thought to herself.

Because her father inexplicably told her to observe Lu Mingfei, Su Xiaoqiang decided to go see Lu Mingfei again today.

Moreover, she herself was very curious about Lu Mingfei.

In her memory, Lu Mingfei was just an inconspicuous nobody in the class, with no special characteristics except for being a bit of a jerk.

But last night, Lu Mingfei overturned her impression, making her suddenly realize that this guy was completely different from the one she remembered.

Knowledge of Maybach can come from playing games, while knowledge of Screaming Eagle Winery might come from having tasted that wine before or hearing about it from others.

But the custom-made underwear was really hard to explain—it couldn't have been stolen by him, could it?

Putting aside her father's instructions for the moment, even if it was just to satisfy her own curiosity, Su Xiaoqiang wanted to investigate Lu Mingfei in detail.

Before she even reached Lu Mingfei's house, she ran into Lu Mingfei walking down the street with Chu Zihang.

Upon hearing Lu Mingfei speak, Su Xiaoqiang instinctively wanted to retort, but with the legendary male god of Shilan High School present, she still had to consider her image to some extent.

"Unfortunately, I was just about to look for you," Su Xiaoqiang said with a smile.

"Oh," Lu Mingfei suddenly realized, "You're here to bring me my underwear, right? I only realized I left it at your house yesterday after I got home."

Su Xiaoqiang recalled the scene of Lu Mingfei throwing his underwear into her laundry basket, and her anger surged. She ignored the ambiguity in his words and, hands on her hips, snapped, "You wish! Go get it from my house yourself! And not only did you go to my private bathroom to shower, but you also dared to throw your dirty clothes into my laundry basket. You'd better buy me a new laundry basket!"

"How was I supposed to know that was your private bathroom? You didn't stop me from ordering it, and you're partly to blame too," Lu Mingfei quickly retorted. "You gave me your underwear to change into, that's why I threw the dirty one in the laundry basket. If you hadn't given it to me, everything would have been fine, right? You're at least two-thirds responsible!"

"You!" Su Xiaoqiang was furious and raised her foot to kick Lu Mingfei's shin, but Lu Mingfei skillfully jumped back to dodge.

He had been hit by this move by Su Xiaoqiang countless times at school, and it had long since become a conditioned reflex.

Su Xiaoqiang chased after Lu Mingfei and tried to kick him, but Lu Mingfei continued to retreat, and the two of them started to playfully fight.

Seeing the two bickering, Chu Zihang's eyes suddenly lit up.

This isn't an adjective; his pupil color really did suddenly brighten by several shades. The reason for this was probably that his golden eyes had been ignited, and the color of his black contact lenses was diluted by the golden light.

Fortunately, the change was not very obvious. Even though the color of his pupils had brightened a few shades, it was still within the normal range for Asians, so no one noticed it.

Chu Zihang's gaze shifted slightly, landing on Lu Mingfei, then glanced at Su Xiaoqiang, before finally returning to Lu Mingfei, his eyes now showing a thoughtful expression.

He's an adult, and although he doesn't have experience in this area, he at least has knowledge about it.

A boy takes a shower at a girl's house, uses the underwear she gave him, and leaves his old underwear at her house. What does this signify? It couldn't be clearer.

When he was in Shilan Secondary School, he heard a lot of gossip from his classmates. He didn't pay much attention to this kind of news, so he forgot most of it after hearing it.

The only gossip about Lu Mingfei that Chu Zihang naturally remembered was the one about Lu Mingfei, because he was so impressed with Lu Mingfei himself.

If he remembered correctly, the gossip circulating among his classmates at the time was that "there were three top beauties in a class a year below. One of them was named Chen Wenwen, a literary girl with many boys pursuing her. Among them, the most humble and hopeless one was named Lu Mingfei, and the most hopeful one was named Zhao Menghua."

It seems gossip is indeed unreliable; Lu Mingfei doesn't like the girl named Chen Wenwen, and he and the girl named Su Xiaoqiang are the real couple.

Chu Zihang had heard of Su Xiaoqiang at school; after all, such an arrogant young lady must have been famous throughout Shilan by now. However, he didn't pay attention to such things, so his knowledge of Su Xiaoqiang was basically limited to her name.

"Are you a couple?"

Watching the two playfully bickering, Chu Zihang suddenly asked.

He really wasn't trying to gossip.

However, the task required him to record every detail of his interactions with Lu Mingfei, and he definitely needed to find out whether Lu Mingfei had a girlfriend or not.

"A couple?!?"

"A couple?!?"

Lu Mingfei and Su Xiaoqiang stopped what they were doing almost simultaneously, turned around, and exclaimed in unison.

The two of them spoke almost simultaneously.

"Me and her? How could that be!"

"Me and him? How could that be!"

Lu Mingfei shook his head repeatedly: "Senior Brother Chu, you've misunderstood. We're just ordinary classmates, nothing more!"

As he spoke, he quickly looked at Su Xiaoqiang, hoping she could also help explain.

But then he saw Su Xiaoqiang's face turn red.

Holy crap! What are you blushing for?!

Lu Mingfei's eyes widened.

Unlike Lu Mingfei, Su Xiaoqiang, being a girl, was more thoughtful. When Chu Zihang asked her if she and Lu Mingfei were a couple, she subconsciously considered why Chu Zihang would ask such a question.

Then she realized the ambiguity in her conversation with Lu Mingfei.

"Senior Brother Chu, no, we, I..." Su Xiaoqiang's cheeks flushed red, and she lowered her head, stammering.

Lu Mingfei was dumbfounded. He thought to himself, "What's wrong with you, sis? Why are you so shy? This isn't your usual persona. Did you mistake Chen Wenwen and Liu Miaomiao for each other?"

In Chu Zihang's eyes, Su Xiaoqiang's performance was essentially the end of the case.

After hesitating for a moment, Chu Zihang looked at Lu Mingfei and earnestly instructed him, "You are still young, so please be sure to take proper precautions."

Chu Zihang's reason for giving this advice was quite simple. Although it's true that the higher the bloodline of a mixed-race person, the harder it is to have offspring, Su Xiaoqiang was, after all, an ordinary person. What if Lu Mingfei and she ended up with someone dying...

The college can't exactly admit a child's father to its program, can it?

Lu Mingfei opened his mouth wide, realizing what was happening.

Having followed Tony before, even though he had always kept himself pure, he was still inevitably influenced by some spiritual factors. Now that Chu Zihang had even used the term "protective measures," how could Lu Mingfei not react?

Now that you mention it, although Senior Brother Chu misunderstood, his reminder was well-intentioned. But... Senior Brother Chu, what's with that nagging tone you're using?

Lu Mingfei still couldn't help but complain.

Su Xiaoqiang's face was so red it was almost bleeding, and she even felt a little dizzy. She let out a low whimper, turned around, and quickly fled back to the Maybach.

A few seconds later, the Maybach slowly started and drove away from the place that was Su Xiaoqiang's place of heartbreak.

"Did I say something wrong?" Chu Zihang asked Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei: ...

Chapter 12 Running away from home

Almost ten days have passed since Su Xiaoqiang fled in disarray.

Lu Mingfei received some good news.

The school is going to postpone the start of the semester until March 1st, which will allow him, who still hasn't done his winter break homework, to prolong his time for a few more days.

Although they are now in their final year of high school, students at Shilan Middle School never lack tutoring classes and private tutors. It is estimated that for most students, holidays are more tiring than the start of the school year.

But Lu Mingfei doesn't have this kind of trouble.

His troubles stemmed from not finding an opportunity to enter Tony's world.

The recovery speed of his time travel ability during this period was still optimistic, enough for him to travel through time and stay for a short while longer.

Although he couldn't stay for long, his main purpose was to let Tony know he was safe.

After all, he suddenly disappeared on Tony's ship. Although he told Tony that he came from another universe, Tony would most likely guess that he had "come home," but he would still be worried.

So he wanted to find an opportunity to go back and explain the situation to Tony, and also try to bring back gold and silver jewelry to improve his life.

But after traveling through different worlds, no matter how long it takes for him to return, it always takes a fixed 24 hours. Now that he's staying at home, it's equivalent to being missing for 24 hours, which will definitely cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Unless he can move out.

But even if he had money, his uncle and aunt wouldn't allow him to move out.

How to do this?

Lu Mingfei fell into thought.

……

My aunt has been increasingly disliking Lu Mingfei lately.

Ever since this kid came back from his disappearance, and after Lu Gucheng and I treated him well for a few days, he seemed to have forgotten his own name and started to get all arrogant.

He doesn't like sweeping the floor anymore, he doesn't like doing chores, and when I scold him, he ignores me and even dares to talk back.

Of course, what his aunt found most unacceptable was that Lu Mingfei began to occasionally reveal a temperament that resembled his mother, Jovie.

As a daughter-in-law of the Lu family, Auntie and Joey were naturally at odds.

Why is it that both of them married into the Lu family, yet her husband is just a spineless office worker while Jovie's husband is a respectable archaeologist?

Why is it that Giovanni always shines brightly while she has to spend all her time surrounded by the fumes of cooking oil?

It's as if she's marrying up to Lao Lu's family, while Qiao Weini is marrying down.

Auntie had long forgotten what Giovanni looked like, but she remembered the air of superiority that Giovanni had occasionally displayed.

It was as if she were a swan, and everyone around her, including her aunt herself, was an ugly duckling, deserving to be overshadowed by her and to look up to her nobility.

What Auntie hated most was the kind of temperament that made people feel ashamed of themselves, and now she seemed to see the shadow of Qiao Weini in Lu Mingfei.

"Lu Mingfei! Come out here right now!" Thinking of this, the aunt roared, as if a thunderclap had struck.

After waiting for almost a minute, Lu Mingfei slowly came out of the bedroom, while Lu Mingze was still playing games in the bedroom.

"What's wrong, Auntie?" Lu Mingfei asked casually.
