Chapter 22: Chapter 21.1

Gu Muxi, seeing his sly smile, thought he was ready to take advantage of her mother’s decree to lord over her and snorted, “Hmph, don’t even think about ordering me around!”

“If you dare use my mom’s words to threaten me, I’ll make you taste the deadly cross-lock again!”

Yi Feng: “……”

Gu Muxi, what kind of thought process is this?

That’s not what I meant!

“Cough cough, don’t worry, I won’t do that, at most I’ll ask you to cook something.”

“No, I don’t want to cook!”

“Is it that you don’t want to, or you don’t know how?”

“I, I… Who says I don’t know how? My cooking skills are very good, okay!”

“Really? But I’ve never seen you cook. Can you really cook?”

“Hmph, what can’t I do? No, almost got tricked by you there. Even if I can, I’m not cooking for you!”

Yi Feng saw her nearly fall for it, what a pity.

“Alright, didn’t know you were so clever.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Gu Muxi moved a stool to the window, arrogantly saying, “Of course, my dad says I’ve been smart since I was young, with an IQ of 114!”

Yi Feng’s eyes rolled, smiling, “Is that so? You’re that smart? I don’t believe it, let me test you with a few questions.”

“Go ahead!”

“Is a giraffe taller than an elephant?”

“Yes!”

“Is a rabbit faster than a turtle?”

“Yes!”

“Is a cow heavier than a pig?”

“Yes!”

“Do you differ from a pig? Answer quickly!”

“No, not at all!”

“Hahaha——!”

Gu Muxi: “???”

Damn it, tricked by stinky Yi Feng again!

“You, you did that on purpose!”

Yi Feng smiled, “Then let me ask you another question, you just need to answer whether you know or not.”

“What question?”

“You’re so dumb, do your parents know?”

“No… know, don’t know…”

“Hahaha——!”

“Jerk! You tricked me again!”

Gu Muxi angrily pulled the curtains shut, not wanting to talk to Yi Feng anymore.

Damn stinky Yi Feng, always tricking me!

Ignoring you!

Gu Muxi jumped onto the bed, grabbed a pink pig, and locked it in a cross-lock.

“Stinky Yi Feng, I’ll lock you up!”

Then she began to knead and squeeze the pig’s head in various ways.

“Stinky Yi Feng, I’m going to rub your face into a ball, squeeze you to death!”

“Stinky Yi Feng, take this kick!”

“I’ll flatten you!”

Creak——

“Girl, what, what are you doing?”

The room door suddenly opened, and Li Wan looked at her in astonishment.

She saw Gu Muxi holding the neck of the pink pig, gritting her teeth as if she had a deep hatred for the pig plush.

“Uh… Mom, I, I was just dusting the dolls, haha.”

Gu Muxi awkwardly smiled, patting the pink pig’s head.

“Oh… I just told Yi Feng that he’ll be studying with you for these three days. You two should get along well!” Li Wan advised.

Gu Muxi, gripping the pink pig’s neck, twisted its head to the side as if she had broken its neck.

“Mom, I know… I will, I will get along well with Yi Feng!”

She emphasized the words “get along well.”

“That’s good, you better study now, I’m going to rest.” Li Wan closed the door.

Gu Muxi threw the pink pig on the bed and sat back at her desk, biting her pen.

“Hmph, stinky Yi Feng, see how I deal with you tomorrow!”

…

The next day, Gu Muxi went to school as usual with Yi Feng.

Not long after Yi Feng returned to the classroom, Zhao Xue led Hou Zixing to the classroom door.

“Yi Feng, come out for a moment,” Zhao Xue called.

Yi Feng walked to the classroom door, “What’s up, teacher?”

“Yesterday, we met with Hou Zixing’s parents and gave him a good talking to.”

“He has been given a major demerit by the school, and now I’ve specifically brought him here to apologize to you.”

Saying this, Zhao Xue turned and glared at Hou Zixing.

Hou Zixing, looking at Yi Feng, showed a look of fear on his face.

After what happened yesterday, he knew he absolutely shouldn’t mess with Yi Feng!

This guy is too cunning!

He bowed deeply to Yi Feng, apologizing, “Yi, Yi Feng, I’m sorry!”

“I was wrong, please forgive me!”

The other students whispered among themselves upon seeing this.

“Hou Zixing has seen his day!”

“Hehe, if he didn’t apologize obediently, he might have been expelled!”

“Yi Feng is awesome, making Hou Zixing submit and apologize!”

“Now, don’t mess with anyone but Yi Feng, Hou Zixing got what he deserved!”

…

Yi Feng showed a “benevolent” smile, patted Hou Zixing on the shoulder, “It’s okay, I forgive you!”

“Let bygones be bygones, from now on, we’re friends, right?”

Hou Zixing, seeing his smile, felt a chill down his spine…

“Right, friends…”

Zhao Xue was very pleased with Yi Feng, “Yi Feng, I didn’t expect you to be so magnanimous!”

“Very good, commendable!”

“Teacher is too kind, I’ve always been quite open-minded and broad-minded,” Yi Feng shamelessly said.

Hou Zixing: “……”

Yi Feng’s skin is thick!

Better not provoke him in the future, this kind of person will definitely resort to unscrupulous means for revenge!

“Alright, you two go back, it’s time for class,” Zhao Xue dismissed them.

“Okay, teacher.”

Yi Feng returned to his seat, Gu Muxi turned around and asked, “What did the class teacher call you out for? To make peace with Hou Zixing?”

Yi Feng nodded, “Yeah, we made peace. I guess from now on, he’ll have to walk around me.”

Gu Muxi covered her mouth and laughed, “You made him suffer so much, no wonder he’s afraid of you!”

“Hehe, Gu Muxi, how are you going to thank me? I just solved a problem for you, getting rid of an enthusiastic pursuer. Shouldn’t you thank me?” Yi Feng seized the opportunity to get something from Gu Muxi.

Maybe invite me to a meal, or… cooking at home would also do.

“Hmph, what does it have to do with me?” Gu Muxi arrogantly turned her head back.

Yi Feng glared, realizing this girl’s skin was quite thick too!

The bell for class rang, marking the start of a history lesson.

The history teacher, Mr. Mo, was in his fifties, wearing thick reading glasses, the epitome of an old scholar.

“Class is starting.”

“Good morning, teacher~”

“Please sit.”

“Today, we’ll learn about the history of the Three Kingdoms…”

Mr. Mo’s lecture was like chanting scriptures, Yi Feng didn’t really listen, his attention was all on Gu Muxi’s back.
