Chapter 107 Stubborn yet cowardly

Chapter 107 Stubborn yet cowardly
Spring is the season of hope.

At Shilan Middle School, birds sing and grass grows lush, and the sound of students reading aloud can be heard from time to time.

A 100-day countdown rally was held recently, and not only the senior students, but also the first and second year students, and even the junior high students, were inspired and motivated to study by the passionate oaths.

This time of year is usually the quietest time for the Student Affairs Office, as there are far fewer mischievous students, and they only need to carry out normal management work.

During break time.

"Xiaoqiang, why do you seem especially happy today?"

When Liu Miaomiao came out of the restroom, she noticed again that her best friend's face seemed to be glowing, and she couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Where is it?"

Su Xiaoqiang was startled and quickly suppressed her smile, pretending to put on a stern face.

Is it...is it that obvious?
However, what Liu Miaomiao said was not wrong.

She was in a really good mood today.

Last night, when I had a video call with Lu Mingfei, he said that he was going back to Binhai today and that he should inform her, his guardian.

Su Xiaoqiang immediately spat and warned him not to talk nonsense, because legally Lu Mingfei's guardian is her father... Then Lu Mingfei mentioned that a friend might come along.

Su Xiaoqiang didn't think much of it and simply said that she would arrange a car to pick them up from the airport.

Then we exchanged some very everyday and trivial things.

"Hey, hey, hey, you'll laugh yourself silly if you keep laughing." Liu Miaomiao waved her little hand in front of her face.

Su Xiaoqiang then came to her senses and, somewhat embarrassed and annoyed, reached out to tickle her, saying, "You're silly, you're silly."

Liu Miaomiao smiled and dodged away.

The two prettiest girls in the grade were playfully fighting in the hallway, a beautiful scene like fairies dancing.

The innocent boys passing by silently lowered their heads and quickly walked away to avoid getting a nosebleed; they couldn't afford to lose nutrition at such a crucial moment.

After a moment, the two stopped.

"Seriously, is Lu Ming really going to come back?"

Liu Miaomiao looked around and, seeing that no one was around, asked in a low voice.

Hearing her soft voice, Su Xiaoqiang's heart suddenly tightened and then began to pound.

After his brief moment of remarkable success, Lu Mingfei never returned to school after the start of the semester, which was quite a big deal at the time.

Especially when it was eaten together with the sudden transfer of the 'Prince Ze' from the lower grade, it sparked all sorts of speculation from busybodies.

Some say that Prince Ze's family got into legal trouble, such as embezzlement and bribery, and lost everything... This is quite credible, since the true strength of a family can often be seen from the children. Many people have always thought that Prince Ze was a rather strange person.

Some people say that Prince Ze was able to act arrogantly in the past because he relied on the living expenses sent by Lu Mingfei's parents, but now the two families have a conflict and the living expenses have stopped, so Prince Ze can only transfer to a public high school... There are relatively few supporters of this speculation. After all, everyone can see the situation of Lu Mingfei and Lu Mingze before. If it were the other way around, it would be more likely. People are not that bad.

Some say that Lu Mingfei has already gone abroad and, through the arrangements of his biological parents, has entered a prestigious university and is currently studying in a preparatory program. Chu Zihang was here to handle this matter before... Even fewer people believe this speculation, since Lu Mingfei's parents are shrouded in secrecy, and no one knows whether they even exist...

Time will eventually heal all wounds.

As the parties involved remained out of the public eye for an extended period, all the rumors gradually faded away.

Shilan has produced many outstanding figures throughout history, each leading the way for hundreds of years.

New rumors will always replace old ones.

For example, Zhao Menghua, who was previously thought to be in decline, and Chen Wenwen, the beautiful head of the Literature and Art Department, frequently appeared together in various places, which became a new round of gossip during their leisure time.

Su Xiaoqiang patted her chest, looking slightly flustered, and said, "Shh, keep your voice down, he's not coming back."

"what?"

Liu Miaomiao looked confused.

I don't quite understand.

Su Xiaoqiang's name appears in Lu Mingfei's news; she's the only one who knows about this.

The incident began when Liu Miaomiao and Su Xiaoqiang were having dinner together. When paying the bill, Liu Miaomiao accidentally saw a photo of them together in the transparent compartment of Su Xiaoqiang's wallet.

In that photo, Su Xiaoqiang and a boy are leaning against the top of an ancient city wall, eating candied hawthorns, while in the distance, dazzling fireworks light up the night sky.

It was clearly taken recently.

Thus, Liu Miaomiao was shocked.

Su Xiaoqiang also openly showed the photo, and the boy in it was indeed Lu Mingfei.

In the picture, the two are dressed in ancient-style clothes. The girl is as beautiful as fire, and the boy is handsome and gentle. They are simply a match made in heaven.

Liu Miaomiao immediately kowtowed.

As expected of Su Xiaoqiang, the master of "Ghostly Skills," she effortlessly transformed Lu Mingfei into such a handsome young man. With some acting practice, he might even be able to debut directly.

What the hell is this "one-handed trick"...?

Although Su Xiaoqiang knew that Liu Miaomiao liked to make random fantasies all day long, she still couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth.

She undoubtedly appreciated the compliment.

There are many people in this world with good potential, but few are willing to discover them and put in the effort to improve them. This is why it is said that talented people are common, but discerning mentors are rare... Moreover, Lu Mingfei's potential is far more than just this.

After she returned to Binhai, she could tell from her father's beaming face and the visible changes in the Su Group.

According to her father, with the support of the Zhou family, the Su Group is expanding from a simple mining group into a comprehensive group covering the entire industrial chain.

Su Jiannan is poised to become the richest man in Binhai, transforming from the city's leading mining boss into the city's richest man.

Although the Zhou family didn't say it explicitly, Su Xiaoqiang understood that this was part of the importance Lu Mingfei received in the mixed-race world that had been transferred to her family.

and so……

None of you know that Lu Mingfei is actually a treasure trove... hehe, but now he's in my hands!
Of course, matters involving another world were not something Liu Miaomiao could discuss.

This was a solemn promise she made when she chose to preserve her memories.

However, I hesitated for a moment.
Su Xiaoqiang explained in a low voice, "No, what I mean is that he probably won't go back to Shilan to study."

"Oh, he's coming back from abroad, right?"

Liu Miaomiao looked enlightened. Okay, now she understood.

"Who said he was abroad! He's been in China the whole time, just dealing with other things."

Su Xiaoqiang curled her lips, thinking to herself, "Liu Miaomiao doesn't know anything!"
She had no idea where those outrageous rumors had taken her, and she hadn't responded to them for Lu Mingfei before.

After all, it's best to keep a low profile at school; it's not good to make a big fuss about puppy love... What if Lu Mingfei doesn't want to go public either?
She'd always been a coward, and it was hard to change that impression after all these years. She didn't think Lu Mingfei had the guts to face the issue directly. Their relationship remained unspoken, a state of mutual understanding.

"alright."

Liu Miaomiao didn't press the matter.

Her little brain didn't want to deal with these complicated things; she just wanted to keep bumping her head.

"In short, you two must be very happy!" Liu Miaomiao clenched her small fists, her face showing determination.

"I'll teach you to stop talking nonsense!"

A blush crept onto Su Xiaoqiang's pretty face as she lunged at Liu Miaomiao again with a fierce expression.

……

into the night.

On a runway deep inside a coastal airport.

A private plane is taxiing down.

Bombardier XRS, one of the world's three major civil aircraft manufacturers, is a top-tier private jet brand that rivals Gulfstream. It excels at creating a quiet and comfortable in-flight environment, making it an essential choice for both home and travel.

The gangway descended, but no passengers emerged from the cabin for a long time.

The ground maintenance personnel, who had been prepared in advance, looked puzzled and were about to report the situation when they finally saw a young boy walk out, carrying a... girl on his back?
The maintenance crew was stunned. What was this... a medical aircraft?
"Stop causing trouble, sister. They're coming to help with the stretcher soon."

Lu Mingfei turned his head slightly nervously, his voice revealing embarrassment and helplessness.

"Ugh... I'm tired. I'll lie down for a bit. You tell them."

In the night breeze, the soft whispers of Nuwa could be faintly heard.

Her voice was soft and sticky, as if she hadn't woken up yet.

Nuwa tapped his shoulder with her chin, as if she were about to fall asleep on his back.

Lu Mingfei was completely baffled.

Without a doubt... this is an act.

He was fooled.

Nuwa was full of cunning schemes, and this was the first time he had ever witnessed them.

After saying yesterday that she would use a secret method to completely transform into human form and return to Binhai with him, Nuwa began her performance.

First, after the secret technique is completed, I will be weak for a period of time. My newly formed feet cannot walk. Before I can adapt, I will have to rely on you to carry me. You need to practice how to carry me first.

Lu Mingfei agreed.

Once they were carried on my back, they refused to get off.

Today, the thrilling "transformation into human form" segment is over. Nuwa then said something like, "Oh no, I'm too weak. Mingfei, Mingfei, come in quickly."

As a result, Lu Mingfei, who was guarding outside the door, rushed over to take a look.

Good heavens! Her strength has indeed decreased sharply, by a full 90%! But the problem is that her base strength is high; her combat power on the panel is still 120, enough to sit at the same table as Chu Zihang in his normal state.

So all that talk about him being worse than an ordinary person was just a lie!

But she still insisted that she had no strength in her legs, couldn't walk, and needed to be carried, and then continued to sit there and act coquettishly.

Lu Mingfei didn't want to expose him.

There's no other way but to keep memorizing it.

As a result, Lu Mingfei didn't notice that she was no longer a snake's tail, but a foot, and accidentally bumped into the stone threshold.

And then... it exploded!
The threshold was smashed open by those two delicate white feet! Dust and powder swirled around it.

Lu Mingfei was terrified.

Then Nuwa stubbornly insisted that the threshold was of poor quality, but she didn't actually feel anything was wrong.

As for now...

He was so excited on the plane, humming an ancient folk song from Chu, saying it was the way the Book of Songs was sung, and that he would teach Lu Mingfei to sing it together.

The plane has landed.

She was sleepy again and couldn't be moved no matter how hard Lu Mingfei tried. Worried that the maintenance staff outside would have to wait too long, he had no choice but to carry her on his back again.

……

I boarded the shuttle bus.

"Please behave yourself for a bit, I beg you," Lu Mingfei pleaded softly.

"Hmph, I know, I won't make things difficult for you in Binhai."

Nuwa sat in her seat, a faint smile on her face, and said, "I know what I'm doing."

This is clearly a sign that they're not going to put on an act anymore.

but,

After saying this, the two fell silent simultaneously.

I deliberately downplayed the problems that were on my mind along the way.

They didn't speak again until the car stopped at the bottom of the arrival hall.

"Do you want me to carry you down?" Lu Mingfei said in a low voice.

"No need, I can walk by myself."
