Campus Cultivation Master-Chapter 15 - 00: Skip Class or Elope

Wu Di nearly stumbled upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, his face darkening so much it seemed like he could drip water.

Wu Di clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned a shade of pale white. He had never been so embarrassed before, but today, he had been humiliated by a nobody.

Wu Di’s flunky, seeing the gloom on Wu Di’s face, couldn’t help but tremble, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead. After all, it was his own failure to handle the situation properly.

Wu Di left, but the entire class, looking at Chu Feng, underwent a change of perception.

Chu Feng used to be practically invisible in the class. How had he suddenly become so bold? And to offend Young Master Wu Di no less—it was like looking for trouble with a lantern in a cesspit.

An Rongrong couldn’t care less about how others saw it and whispered to Chu Feng, "You’re really bad."

Chu Feng simply smiled and said, "Men aren’t bad, women won’t love them. If I wasn’t bad, how could I protect you... from being bothered."

Chu Feng deliberately dragged out the last note, causing An Rongrong’s cheeks to turn a rosy red.

"You’re terribly naughty!" An Rongrong chided softly, her voice tinged with shyness.

Xiao Pang, unable to bear the conversation any longer, turned his head to look at Chu Feng and said, "Brother Chu, please have some consideration for the fragile heart of this secret admirer and stop saying such mushy things, okay?"

"Go on! Focus on your studies!" Chu Feng slapped Xiao Pang on the back of his head and said.

Xiao Pang grimaced and said, "Alright, I’m the slow learner then. I don’t have your hidden talent that shows up with a bang when it counts. I’d better just bury myself in my books. This time you’re not letting up on me, so I’ve hit the bottom. My dad’s going to nag me to death when I get home."

An Rongrong, tilting her head, looked at Chu Feng and asked, "Did you really not cheat?"

Chu Feng looked at An Rongrong and replied, "Do you think I cheated?"

An Rongrong shook her head and said, "I don’t believe you would cheat."

Before long, Xiao Pang turned his head again and intervened, "Chu Feng came back safe and sound, which proves he definitely didn’t cheat. Soon, we’ll see Teacher Liu climb a tree with excitement, just thinking about it is thrilling."

Chu Feng replied, "The agreement I had with Teacher Liu is already canceled, and from now on, let’s not bring it up again. Teacher Liu has already apologized to me."

Xiao Pang with a look of disappointment said, "Too bad it wasn’t me; I definitely wouldn’t have accepted the apology."

An Rongrong, gazing at Chu Feng, said, "You launched a surprise attack this time and scored one point more than me. Next time, I’ll definitely surpass you."

Chu Feng chuckled and responded, "Next time, I’ll get a perfect score, and you’ll have even less chance to get ahead of me."

An Rongrong rolled her eyes cutely and remarked, "Braggart!"

Xiao Pang, watching the back and forth between Chu Feng and An Rongrong, silently sighed, knowing well that his sister-in-law was soon going to become his junior sister.

The three chatted for a while before class officially began.

During class, Liu Tiemei apologized to Chu Feng again and announced that Chu Feng’s results were legitimate and that he was indeed the Top Scholar of the exam.

This shocked the whole class. In the past, Chu Feng had always been at the bottom, and now he had become the Top Scholar. The class found the stark contrast difficult to digest.

Of course, it was even harder for people like Wu Di to accept.

At that moment, Wu Di and his flunkies were sitting in a cafe outside the school.

One of Wu Di’s flunkies, Liu Tianming, looking at Wu Di’s dark expression, said, "Boss, I really did ask Tong Hu to teach him a lesson yesterday. If you don’t believe me, I can call Tong Hu right now."

Wu Di twisted his cup in his hands but remained silent.

Seeing this, Liu Tianming quickly pulled out his phone and called Tong Hu.

When the call connected, Liu Tianming asked directly, "Brother Hu, did you teach that kid a lesson for me yesterday?"

Tong Hu replied, "Of course I did. He even promised that he wouldn’t come to school anymore."

Liu Tianming said, "But he came today, and he made Young Master Wu lose face. Brother Hu, come over again and make him disappear for good."

"Hello! Hello! What are you saying? I can’t hear you well! Beep beep!" After Brother Hu said ’hello’ twice, he hung up the phone and then removed the battery.

"Brother Hu, why did you switch off the phone when it’s a job that pays?" said one of the underlings sitting with Tong Hu in the sauna.

"What paying job? Going back would be signing my own death warrant. Next time you guys take on a job, make sure to check it out properly to avoid having me pick up your bodies," Tong Hu scolded.

After saying this, Tong Hu muttered to himself, "I’m not messing with that kind of Living King Yama. Find someone else who’s up to it. I’m going to live my life easy and steady."

Tong Hu’s large hand slid directly into the skirt of the massage girl behind him, playing with her to his heart’s content. Tong Hu’s actions caused the massage girl to emit a series of shy murmurs.

Liu Tianming, listening to the sound of the phone turning off, his face turned pale, "Boss, believe me, I..."

Wu Di waved his hand, "I do believe you would have done it. Surely, there must be something wrong with this kid. Have someone check his background. Since he wants to play, I’ll play along with him, to the fullest."

Wu Di paused for a moment and then added, "Oh, by the way, have you taken care of the task I gave you? It’s Old Master An’s birthday tonight, and I must make a good impression to take the lead in the competition for An Rongrong."

Liu Tianming replied, "Don’t worry boss, the item was personally acquired by my dad from a ginseng farmer in Changbai Mountain."

Upon hearing Liu Tianming’s words, Wu Di nodded and then said, "You’ll accompany me to withdraw money in the afternoon."

Liu Tianming hastily said, "Boss, how can I take money for helping you?"

Wu Di replied, "Each thing in its own right. You deserve this money."

After hearing this, Liu Tianming quickly thanked him, "Thank you, Boss."

Classes for the day ended quickly and, of course, the discussions about Chu Feng subsided as the day went on.

Chu Feng still left class at five o’clock, backpack slung over his shoulder and on his way.

No one stopped Chu Feng when his grades were poor, and now that his grades were good, and he kept such a low profile, no one was stopping him even more.

"Wait for me!"

Just as Chu Feng walked out of the teaching building, he heard An Rongrong calling him from behind.

Chu Feng turned around to see An Rongrong running towards him breathlessly and said, "What, are you skipping class, or planning to elope with me?"

An Rongrong rolled her eyes at Chu Feng and said, "I would never elope with you. I’m going back early for my grandpa’s birthday today."

Chu Feng responded, "Oh! So you’re taking me to meet the parents, huh? Isn’t this moving a bit too fast?"

An Rongrong raised her little fist and punched Chu Feng lightly, "You’re so annoying! I knew I shouldn’t have called you."

Chu Feng chuckled and said, "Let’s go, I’ll walk you out. This school is too big, which isn’t always a good thing. You never know when some pervert might pop out."

East River First High School was indeed very large, occupying more than 400 acres, comparable to some universities.

There was a considerable distance from the teaching building to the school gate.

An Rongrong said, "It’s broad daylight, where would any perverts come from? If there are any, it’s you."

Chu Feng looked around at the empty surroundings, lowered his voice, and said, "How did you know I’m a pervert? By following me now, you’re like a lamb walking into a wolf’s den."

An Rongrong, looking at Chu Feng, chuckled and said, "Everyone says you’re rather dull and not interesting at all. I think they just don’t understand you."

Chu Feng, eyeing An Rongrong, said teasingly, "So you’re saying you understand me better?"

An Rongrong, facing Chu Feng, felt her face growing warm and replied, "I... I don’t want to understand you at all."

As they chatted, the two arrived at the school gate.

Chu Feng said, "Here we are. How are you planning to get there? By taxi, waiting for the driver, or shall I take you?"

An Rongrong glanced around and saw a shiny black BMW driving towards her, "My driver’s here. Where are you going? I’ll give you a ride."

Chu Feng eyed the BMW and remarked, "Sure! I’ve never ridden in a BMW before. Today’s a good day to enjoy the experience."

The BMW drove very smoothly. However, instead of slowing down as it approached them, the car suddenly accelerated, charging directly towards An Rongrong.

An Rongrong, who had never seen anything like this, was instantly petrified on the spot.

But just as the BMW was about to hit her, a strong arm wrapped around her waist, and An Rongrong felt herself lifted off the ground as the BMW narrowly whizzed past her.

The BMW, having missed its target, didn’t stop but vanished into the traffic flow.

Chu Feng, holding An Rongrong by the waist, fell backwards, his back slamming straight into the cement ground. And to protect An Rongrong, Chu Feng allowed himself to fall rigidly, only slightly cushioning the fall with his other hand.

"Hisss!"

Although Chu Feng’s physical condition had improved, such a fall still caused him to wince in pain.
