Starting as an infant, with parents who are blond-haired delinquents?

Then, express your joy and excitement to Xiaoyue to your heart's content. This will make Xiaoyue feel satisfied, and only this satisfaction will dissipate her anger towards you!

Shen Qiangwei was lost in her memories: "It was like the love letter your dad wrote to me back then. The handwriting was really not flattering, but I insisted on praising it as if it were the calligraphy of Wang Ziyi. When he heard it, he was so happy that he took me everywhere to admire it!"

Zhang Chaoqiang: "Mom, are you trying to talk about Wang Xizhi?"

Zhang Huolong: "Super Strong, don't interrupt. So after all we've said, do you understand now that acknowledging the help someone is helping is sometimes the best emotional spice, giving them a sense of absolute satisfaction?"

So, do you know what you need to do now?

"Dad, please speak."

"Have you bought those fruit pit crystals yet? When will they arrive?"

"It will be air freight in about two or three days."

"Here's what I'll do: fill in the address at your school, and when you receive the package, open it in front of the whole class. Be as exaggerated as possible! Just show how satisfied you are with the crystal cores Xiaoyue found for you!"

"This is the best way to thank and vent my anger for Xiaoyue, without even realizing it!"

Zhang Chaoqiang: "Dad, could you demonstrate?"

then…

With a loud "Wow!", Zhang Huolong shouted, lighting up all the stairwell lights in the building: "This crystal core is absolutely perfect! I love it so much! Look, classmates, Tan Yue found this for me! I love it so much, it's unbelievable that Tan Yue could find something so hard to find!"

The volume can be as loud as you want.

At that moment, Zhang Chaoqiang simply tore the slippers apart.

"Listen, it's a little embarrassing..."

With a ding, Zhang Chaoqiang heard the most unwilling sound.

Chapter 148 Celebrity Effect

Tuesday.

At the martial arts school's security office, Zhang Chaoqiang's package arrived early in the morning.

Normally, students are not allowed to shop online or store packages in order to prevent them from not paying attention in class.

Zhang Chaoqiang wasn't given a special treatment; the martial arts school always advocated treating everyone equally. No matter who it was, everyone received the same treatment within the school, and the rules and regulations they had to follow were identical.

Even his package wouldn't be allowed to be stored at the security office. So, the security guard specifically asked his superiors and had Zhang Chaoqiang's package removed.

It was specially delivered to his class...

Faced with the perfectly sealed package, Zhang Chaoqiang knew that it contained the two crystal cores.

He hesitated somewhat... Could it be that he really had to do it like his father Zhang Huolong had demonstrated before in order to win back Tan Yue's heart?

These past two days at school, Tan Yue's relationship with him has indeed cooled considerably, and even when Zhang Chaoqiang tries to talk to her several times, she remains lukewarm.

Judging from the words, the atmosphere, and the other person's emotions, what I said that day really hurt them.

Zhang Chaoqiang also couldn't bear to do it.

For two whole nights, Zhang Huolong and Shen Qiangwei worked on him, urging him not to have any psychological burden. This shouldn't be the hesitation a strong person should have.

It has to be said that there does seem to be some truth to it.

Looking at the package on the ground, Zhang Chaoqiang leaned against the corridor, lingering for a full fifteen minutes during the twenty-minute break between classes.

The customer who had just finished using the restroom and Zhu Bobi returned just in time to see this scene. The customer approached and said, "Is this the teacher's package? Why is it on the floor...?"

"Hey, it's from Brother Qiang. No wonder the security guard finally knew what he was doing this time. Last time I accidentally filled in the wrong address, and the package was delivered to the school, and that old security guard just threw it away."

"Brother Qiang, what are you standing there for? I'll help you take it inside."

After what happened with Zhang Chaoqiang, Zhu Bobi finally recovered and returned to normal thanks to the latter's constant reassurance. He just wondered what kind of expression Zhang Chaoqiang would have when he acted as their final exam examiner again.

Facing the large box, which was about forty centimeters on each side, the two men braced themselves, lowering their waists and shoulders. They assumed that Zhang Chaoqiang hadn't carried it because it was too heavy, so they were on high alert.

Who would have thought that when they put all their strength into grabbing it, the empty weight almost caused the two of them to fall due to inertia, but fortunately Zhang Chaoqiang stepped forward and stabilized them.

It must be said that the official packages from the Martial Arts Shop are packed very carefully.

"Do you need me to help you open it?"

As Zhu Bobi returned to Zhang Chaoqiang's position, he looked back over his shoulder.

"No!" Finally, at this moment, Zhang Chaoqiang steeled his heart, gritted his teeth, and accepted his father's suggestion.

In order to win back Tan Yue's heart, and in order to complete the mission objective...

Just think of it as comforting a child; as long as she's happy...

The key is that this method has to actually work; otherwise, wouldn't it just be an embarrassing waste of time?

After returning to her seat, Tan Yue acted like a sulking kitten, even turning her face away from Zhang Chaoqiang's when she saw the package on the table.

With a soft "humph," Tan Yue exhaled slightly through her nose. Zhang Chaoqiang heard this sound and sensed her slight temper.

"Have the crystal cores arrived yet?" Tan Yue asked softly.

Unlike the female leads in the TV dramas that Shen Qiangwei often watches, or ordinary students who would give each other the silent treatment when angry, she was different.

In comparison, Tan Yue is truly a great friend.

"Oh, do you want to take a look? The packaging of the martial arts shop's packages is quite thoughtful."

"I'm a little sleepy, so I'll stop watching."

Tan Yue turned her head and continued to lie on the table, closing her eyes and refusing to look at her. Only her shiny black ponytail hung down across the middle line of the table between the two of them, and Zhang Chaoqiang could smell the fresh lemon scent of shampoo from it.

Sigh, let's just do it that way...

Zhang Chaoqiang seemed to have made up his mind.

During the noisy break, he directly pried open the sealed packaging with his hands. When the box inside, which was securely protected, appeared before him and was opened, two simple and unadorned screaming chicken crystal cores lay quietly inside.

With a "wow!", Zhang Chaoqiang perfectly imitated Zhang Huolong's performance that night through imitation and learning.

In that instant, the entire class's attention was drawn to Zhang Huolong, and they all craned their necks to look at his location.

He twirled his toes and continued, "This crystal core is absolutely perfect, I love it!"

Look, classmates! This is what Tan Yue found for me! I love it so much! It's unbelievable that Tan Yue could find something so hard to find!

This is a rare bloodline-level demon beast core, and one of the few Screaming Chicken cores on the market at that! She actually found it—that's amazing!

I've never been particularly good at praising or encouraging others. I don't know if it's because I didn't flatter my superiors in a past life that someone else took my place.

Today, I actually made my first attempt for Tan Yue.

It was as extravagant as it could get. Zhang Chaoqiang initially thought he might be going too far, but upon turning around and looking…

Amidst the stunned gazes of her classmates, Tan Yue, who had just been lying down, looked up at her with a joyful and satisfied expression, showing no sign of shyness or embarrassment.

It was as reassuring as a calm clearing appearing in the middle of a sticky swamp.

The initial awkwardness vanished instantly.

"Oh my god, thank you Tan Yue. Please forgive me for not knowing how to express my excitement right now."

"Zhu Bobi, look! This is the screaming chicken crystal core that Tan Yue found for me... Customer, Rong Yue, Chen Sheng, look!"

He quickly showed the crystal core to Zhu Bobi and the customer in front of Tan Yue. Although Zhu Bobi, who had a keen eye, didn't know what Zhang Chaoqiang was up to, he was sure that following his lead would be the right thing to do.

"Wow, isn't this a crystal core of a rare bloodline? I've heard that this kind of demonic beast is extremely rare. How did you manage to find this?"

"Absolutely! It's all thanks to Tan Yue!"

"Tan Yue is amazing..."

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Chaoqiang, carrying the box, walked around the entire classroom as if he were at a dinner party.

Upon seeing him approach, the students scratched their heads and said in unison:

"so beautiful."

"These two crystal cores are amazing."

Wow, I'm so envious.

Clearly, their expressions were stiff, and their performances lacked the vividness and passion of Zhang Chaoqiang's.

When Zhang Chaoqiang returned to his seat, the students felt ashamed seeing the two of them almost touching each other from behind…

Is this some kind of special play between the two of them?

Are we also part of their game?

Goosebumps covered my entire body.

The gloom that had been hanging over Tan Yue in her seat had vanished, and she looked like a little girl with eyes full of satisfaction.

No, she was originally a girl.

"Thank you, Tan Yue, your help is very important to me!"

Zhang Chaoqiang was sincerely grateful. No matter what, it was Tan Yue who had used her connections to find him. It was his previous attitude that was not rigorous enough.

Tan Yue was overjoyed. Her bright, sparkling eyes revealed an indescribable happiness. This feeling was unprecedented; no one had ever made her feel so important in the eyes of others.

It has been like this since birth.

Everyone tries to find their own value in life; some for their family, some for their career, and some for their ideals.

Born into a privileged family, Tan Yue, with her aloof personality, finds it difficult to find satisfaction in certain things on a daily basis.

But today, under Zhang Chaoqiang's exaggerated performance, she felt her own importance.

Of course, in her eyes, Zhang Chaoqiang's performance was not exaggerated at all, but very real!

Tan Yue was speechless. Nothing excited her more than receiving such positive feedback about her actions. If she weren't at school, she would have wanted to give Zhang Chaoqiang a big hug.

"Thank you for your love."

After saying that, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe her mood as radiant with joy.
