At about 10 o’clock in the evening, the Headmistress came back from the hospital. It was enough to dress the wound and take medicine for the trauma. If the Headmistress hadn’t had to take some drips, she might have come back earlier.
She lived on the top floor of the dormitory building. When she went upstairs, ran into the housekeeper reprimanding a few people. “The Headmistress was injured and hospitalized. You aren’t even worried about helping, but still have the luxury to fight? What’s the reason? Don’t try to get medicine without telling me.”
The Headmistress walked over with a straight face and looked at them and said, “I also want to ask why. The institute has a policy of no fighting and should be loving each other. Look at what you’re doing now!”
The few people, fearing that they would be loathed by the Headmistress and miss out on the opportunity to get some donations, immediately argued with each other, blaming the others and even bringing up trivial matters. The Headmistress, whose wounds were already hurting, got an even bigger headache from them arguing. She snapped harshly and pointed at the wall: “All of you stand here as punishment! Don’t move until 12 o’clock. Give me a good reflection on your own mistakes, and each person will hand in 3000 words for review to me tomorrow.”
To write a reflection that would stay in the orphanage files was a permanent stain. Their donations would basically go down the drain. If they were only relying on the orphanage share of pocket money, life will be several levels lower. The few people hurried to intercede with the Headmistress, but they were covered in dirt, so the Headmistress didn’t want to look at them. She gave a wave of disgust and went upstairs.
An argument crashed into the headmistress’s nose, and they directly lost benefits. The several people looked at each other’s eyes with resentment. Even if they couldn’t speak, the atmosphere between them was filled with tension.
The little white fox opened the door a little and watched the whole process. She couldn’t help but smile. Getting them into trouble when the headmistress was at her worst was a particularly effective solution. Look at them now, aren’t they out of luck? What are you going to do? Running out of means and food would hurt the most!
Zhuo Feng locked the door, picked up the little white fox and smiled softly. “The wicked have their own bane, and people with bad hearts will suffer sooner or later.”
(TNote: the wicked have their own evils spirits/bane = even evil people have their own problems/something that’s evil to them.)
The little white fox thought to herself. That’s not right, there’s a saying; ‘A good man doesn’t live forever, but the wicked will last ten thousand years’! Isn’t that just Zhuo Feng and these bastards? Now that she was here, she will definitely protect Zhuo Feng. There are a lot of bastards. She will teach them a lesson one by one, and that Headmistress shouldn’t be arrogant for too long. A heartless person can be the Head of an orphanage, she must find a way to make that woman’s dirty deeds public!
(Tnote: A good man doesn’t live forever, but the wicked will last ten thousand years = A good man is quickly received in heaven, while the wicked will be left to suffer in the human world as long as it takes to repent/ Good things are easily forgotten, and bad things are often passed on for thousands of years.)
Before dawn the next day, the little white fox felt that Zhuo Feng had gotten up. She turned her head to look outside, and then at Zhuo Feng. She didn’t understand what he was doing getting up so early. It wasn’t that long after he went to sleep, wasn’t it?
Zhuo Feng dressed and turned to face two round black eyes, sleepy and adorable. He squatted by the bed and rubbed the little one. “Did I wake you? Go back to sleep, I’m up to memorize my studies. I’ll call you later when it’s time for school.”
The little white fox nodded her little head and lay there lazily. What is ‘memorizing studies’? It seems that she had never heard of it.
She saw Zhuo Feng take out a thick hardcover book, turn it over to the second half, and began to read the dense words silently. He wrote a few strokes on a piece of draft paper from time to time. She yawned a little, stepped forward and turned her head to look, only to find that there were many characters she didn’t recognize besides Chinese characters. She had read so many books in the Fox Library, and now she was semi-illiterate??!!
Zhuo Feng held her on his knees and stroked her back, asking, “are you curious about this? This is English, written by foreigners. But I can’t teach you this. I haven’t heard of a puppy that can read. When I make some money, I’ll buy you toys. Puppies love to play with them, so you won’t be bored.”
Hmm? Toys? The little white fox’s ears stood up, she was extremely curious. She urged Zhuo Feng to study quickly. Scholars can only make money by studying well. It seems that making money was their top priority now!
Then, she watched Zhuo Feng turn over a page for a while, and then turned over another page again. Only then did she really felt that this boy learned quickly, no wonder it made people jealous, and no wonder he was able to make the Zhuo’s family go bankrupt in ten years in his original life, even with a disabled body.
But she’ s a natural at memorizing things. She knows everything in the library!
The little white fox stood up proudly. When she found the right opportunity, she must show Zhuo Feng what she can do!
After memorizing the vocabulary for a long period of time in the morning, Zhuo Feng was the first one to fetch a meal when the canteen opened, and brought the little white fox out of the orphanage as soon as the courtyard opened. He still put the little white fox in the old shabby house, and said with guilt, “I’m sorry, but the orphanage housekeeper conducts random dormitory checks, and the school doesn’t allow puppies in there either. Can you wait here for me? I’ll be back late from work. I’ll bring you some food.”
The little white fox turned her eyes and nodded. When Zhuo Feng left, she quietly followed, and said to the system in her heart: [Yesterday, that Zhuo Yichen seemed to be studying with him? They didn’t succeed yesterday; will they continue today? Post task! Post task!]
[No trouble has been detected at the moment. You will be informed in advance if there is any emergency.]
[Oh, I’ll go to class with him. I don’t understand anything he sees. How can being a guardian angel be worse than the one being guarded? I must learn everything he knows!] The little white fox was full of passion and had infinite expectation for the school curriculum.
Sneaking into the school, the little white fox saw many students peeking at Zhuo Feng from a distance, and whispering to the people around them. Zhuo Feng’s expression was faint, he has been moving forward without looking at others. it was like he didn’t pay attention to anything, which was different from the way he talks so much in private.
Zhuo Yichen and those people didn’t hold back before, so now Zhuo Feng’s face was bruised and purple, and it looked like he had been in a fight with someone. This naturally attracted people’s attention. The first class was the homeroom teacher’s class, and it was no small thing for the first in the year to get into a fight with someone. Considering the heavy load of schoolwork, he told Zhuo Feng to meet him at his office at noon when school was over. All the students knew that the teacher was looking for him to lecture and ask questions, so they all cast sympathetic eyes. Instead, Zhuo Feng nodded with an unchanging expression, not feeling afraid at all. He also planned to tell the teacher truthfully. He had to study and work, so it would be best if the teacher could help solve this problem.
Then the teacher began the lesson. The third-grade classroom was on the first floor. After there was no one outside, the little white fox laid on the corner of the window sill, watching the blackboard and listening carefully. But after a while, she suddenly found that she couldn’t understand not only the words in the morning, but also what the teacher wrote on the blackboard.
Throughout the morning, the little white fox almost began to suspect the fox clan. What alpha particles, resistors and capacitors, carbonates, non-metallic simple substances, parabolas, and Essex outsider…??
She heard the teacher spoke very clearly, but she just didn’t understand what it meant. When the school bell rang, the whole fox was dumbfounded, respecting the study god, Zhuo Feng, inside. She finally understood that there was a fox beyond the fox and a mountain beyond the mountain. Suddenly, she feels that the world was really wonderful. There were countless things that she has never seen before waiting for her to explore. It was worthwhile to come here. She was full of motivation!
001 was trying to comfort its own host, but in the blink of an eye, it found that the host’s inner strength didn’t need to be comforted. Not only has she not been hit by the harsh reality, but it has aroused her endless fighting spirit. It was no wonder that this was the most suitable opportunity for her. It’s true that the strongest are strong for a reason, and this temperament was rare.
One morning was enough time for the news of Zhuo Feng’s beating to spread throughout the school. The entanglement between the study god, school beauty and young master, was enough to set off a heated discussion in the boring high school life, and almost every class had people gossiping about their relationship.
Zhuo Feng cleaned up his desk and went to the homeroom teacher’s office, ready to talk about it in detail. In the end, after seeing the homeroom teacher, the homeroom teacher seemed to suddenly have memory loss. Not only did he turn a blind eye to the injury on Zhuo Feng’s face, but he never mentioned the fight. He just took out a participation form, watch Zhuo Feng fill it and told him to go home.
Zhuo Feng tried to talk about the fight several times, but was bypassed by the homeroom teacher. After that, Zhuo Feng also understood that the homeroom teacher had heard that it was related to Zhuo Yichen, so didn’t want to care. After all, Zhuo Yichen’s father donated a library to the school!
He didn’t know how many such unfair treatments he had encountered since he was a child, and the school didn’t care about it. Anyway, he has always relied on himself. Zhuo Feng politely said goodbye to the homeroom teacher, then he was ready to go to work. At noon, he worked as a waiter in a good restaurant. He could get 50 yuan in 2 hours, which was an important income for him. He just didn’t know if he could do it with an injured face.
He had just walked out of the school when a girl suddenly ran up to him panting, shocked and angry. “Zhuo Feng, did Zhuo Yichen really hit you?! Tell me, is it him? If it was really him, I’ll settle the score for you!”
The little white fox cocked her head and jumped lightly to the wall beside them, looking at the innocent heroine. She saw that she had long hair, delicate features, and a beautiful white dress that set off a little more elegance and nobility than everyone else, worthy of being a little princess who had been pampered and protected growing up. Of course, in the fox’s eyes, she could see how stupid the heroine was from what she said and did. Since when did naivety equate with stupidity?
Zhuo Feng frowned and looked at his watch. He turned away from the other party and said, “Fu Xueqing, I don’t know you well. Please don’t come near me in the future. The entanglement between the both of you has nothing to do with me. I don’t want to participate. Yesterday, because of your words, Zhuo Yichen misunderstood me and almost killed my dog. I implore you to stay away from me in the future, don’t bring me disaster again. Thank you.”
Zhuo Feng bypassed her and strode away. He didn’t want to embarrass a female classmate, but when he thought of those innocent stray dogs and the cute little white one, these words came out of his mouth. He almost couldn’t contain his anger. No matter who, or why, such recklessness didn’t deserve to be forgiven.
The little white fox deeply agrees with Zhuo Feng’s attitude. He was worthy of her following him for a life time, and wasn’t simply fooled by appearance. She gently jumped off the high wall, and ran to chase after Zhuo Feng. Zhuo Feng seems to be going to work, she wonders what the place where Zhuo Feng worked would be like. Would there be any delicious food?
Fu Xueqing looked at Zhuo Feng’s back, and couldn’t believe that Zhuo Feng, who had never even blushed, actually hit her in the face like this. What’s the difference between saying this and calling her a b*tch?!
(TNote: bruh… – -; )
There were many students at the school gate, and when they saw this scene, they immediately started talking. They knew that the school beauty, Fu Xueqing, had confessed to the study god, Zhuo Feng, and even heard that the young master, Zhuo Yichen, had taught Zhuo Feng a lesson. They thought there was a love triangle between them, but they didn’t expect to bump into such an exciting scene at the school gates. Fu Xueqing really lost face when the study god was disgusted by her! And Zhuo Yichen, how dare he try to kill Zhuo Feng’s dog? That’s cruel! How could a rich young master have such a petty heart?
Fu Xueqing’s face turned red, and she wished she could drill into the ground and hide. She’s never been so embarrassed in her life. What will her classmates think of her? It was just a game of Truth or Dare, how did it get this way? Burying her face, she rushed out of the crowd. It’s Zhuo Yichen’s fault. It’s all his fault! She must ask Zhuo Yichen to apologize to Zhuo Feng, otherwise she won’t be able to come to school in the future!
