Song Xingzhi vivió durante el reinado del emperador Huizong

Capítulo 74

Mu Wenchen was playing his white jade zither, a slight smile on his lips. The melody flowed from his hands, light and gentle, like a spring breeze, making one feel light and carefree.

Three days later, Ru Feng appeared in front of Yu Xuan and the others carrying her luggage. Instead of being as plump and healthy as they had imagined, she looked haggard.

Yu Jue and the others were startled and quickly asked, "Ru Feng, what's wrong? Did the headmaster mistreat you and not give you food?"

Ru Feng waved his hand weakly and said, "Alas—it's a long story!" His tone was full of sorrow.

Volume 1, Chapter 75: Eating (The Young Man Who Didn't Know the Taste of Love)

Ru Feng waved his hand weakly and said, "Alas—it's a long story!" His tone was full of sorrow.

Yu Xuan raised a mocking smile: "What's so hard for you to say? We're the ones who's unlucky. Look, you're all covered in sweat."

Ru Feng glanced around casually and saw that the dormitory was bright and clean, and the floor was spotless. Then he looked at Yu Xuan, who looked furious, and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Hehe, you're doing this to welcome the Crown Prince, right? I don't plan to be an official in the future, so it doesn't matter whether I do it or not." He was secretly pleased, having already heard about the methods of the Deputy Headmaster and He Kun, and thought that Yu Xuan and the others must be up to something.

Yu Jue glared at Yu Xuan and asked again, "Ru Feng, you don't look too good. What happened?"

Yun Tianze frowned and circled around Ru Feng, saying, "She seems to have lost a little weight."

Ru Feng rolled her eyes: "How could I possibly lose weight in just three days! Sigh, I don't enjoy eating anything without you guys. Besides, I'm just exhausted from rushing to finish my manuscript."

Everyone suddenly realized.

Yu Xuan punched Ru Feng and said, "I can understand if you say you're tired from writing your novel, but I don't believe a word of it that you look bad because you miss us!"

Ru Feng chuckled again. This Yu Xuan is truly despicable; how could he speak so bluntly? It's so hurtful!

Yu Jue smoothed things over: "Alright, alright, it's good that Ru Feng is back. Everyone, go have breakfast, it's almost time for class."

Ru Feng smiled gratefully at Yu Jue and quickly put down her luggage.

On the way, Yun Tianze walked up to Ru Feng and whispered, "Did that headmaster bully you?"

Ru Feng looked at him incredulously: "How could that be? I was just in a bad mood because I had to finish my manuscript. When you're in a bad mood, you don't want to eat, so you look pale."

Yun Tianze said casually, "But I've noticed that you eat more when you're in a bad mood."

Fu Feng's lips twitched, and he said, "I'm not talking to you anymore. I can't possibly eat that much."

Yun Tianze just smiled, patted Ru Feng on the shoulder, and looked at the two brothers, Yu Jue and Yu Xuan, who were talking in front of him.

In class, Ru Feng didn't doze off this time, but instead held a book, though her mind was wandering. She thought about the three days she spent with Mu Wenchen. Actually, everything was quite good. She ate delicious food, and the bed she slept in was comparable to Yun Tianze's. According to Mu Tong, Mu Wenchen had specially prepared it for her. She spent her days either writing or eating, and occasionally chatting with Mu Tong and Mu Wenchen.

Up to this point, everything was fine. The problem was that Mu Wenchen kept staring at her with an intense gaze, yet his expression remained indifferent, giving off an air of otherworldly grace, so Ru Feng had no idea what he was thinking.

Every time he noticed that the godfather was looking at him, he would look back at him, and the godfather would immediately look away, acting as if nothing had happened.

This game of "I look at you, you look at me" made Ru Feng very uncomfortable. When she thought about Mu Wenchen's sexual orientation, she felt even more uncomfortable, which is why Ru Feng became more and more haggard.

However, there was one advantage: Mu Wenchen had once said he would teach her a skill, which Ru Feng had forgotten. But Mu Wenchen brought it up again, so Ru Feng happily agreed. She was also quite surprised, because Mu Wenchen was going to teach her the skill of "secret sound transmission," which she had read about in martial arts novels. This skill seemed to have been lost for a long time, and Ru Feng never expected that Mu Wenchen would know it!

Of course, Ru Feng hasn't mastered the technique yet, so he'll have to practice at Mu Wenchen's place every day from now on, because it's inconvenient in the dormitory and he'll get disturbed.

Yu Xuan leaned over and whispered, "What are you thinking about?"

Ru Feng turned her gaze away from the book, glanced at the teacher who was engrossed in lecturing, and said softly, "I'm thinking about what to eat for lunch today."

Yu Xuan rolled his eyes: "Only you would think of such boring things."

"You think you're so noble, always worrying about the country and its people!" Ru Feng mocked.

Yu Jue turned around from the front and said, "Don't fight!"

Ru Feng and Yu Xuan exchanged a glance, amidst the flashing swords, before reluctantly turning their attention back to the book.

It was the afternoon, a holiday break, so Ru Feng and his group of four decided to go out for a bite to eat. Since they didn't want to waste their own money, Ru Feng naturally suggested they eat at "Shi Wei Tian" (Food is Heaven).

Hanshan and Zuiyue were overjoyed to see Rufeng.

"Senior brother, you've arrived?" Zuiyue greeted him happily, and Hanshan quickly went to find a private room for them.

Ru Feng waved her straw fan and said with a smile, "They've come, they've brought you some generous guests."

Zuiyue glanced at the two handsome brothers and the stunningly beautiful man behind Rufeng, and greeted them with a smile.

The other three were already quite familiar with Zuiyue, and they exchanged pleasantries with her.

Han Shan came out and told Ru Feng and the others to hurry up and go into the private room, because the appearance of Ru Feng and his group had already attracted the attention of other guests, and there were many women outside the door who were preparing to come in, blocking the way.

Yu Jue understood and quickly pulled Ru Feng along to follow Han Shan up the mountain.

As Ru Feng waved his fan, he casually turned around and, sure enough, found some women watching them from the doorway. He quickly smiled and said, "So my charm hasn't worn off yet."

Yu Xuan snorted coldly: "Show-off!"

Yun Tianze glared at Yu Xuan: "That's Ru Feng's skill."

Zuiyue followed behind, a wry smile on her face.

After everyone was seated, the other three ordered food, while Ru Feng pulled Zui Yue and Han Shan aside to talk.

"How have you been lately?" Ru Feng asked quickly.

Hanshan looked at Rufeng with a wronged expression: "Senior brother, you've been at the academy for so long, why are you only now remembering to come see us? If I hadn't sent you a message by carrier pigeon asking you to submit your manuscript, would you have already forgotten about us?"
