Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

Chapter 390 Do you want to take a day too?
The lunch break at Shilan Middle School was not strictly controlled. Students, mostly couples, could be seen strolling around the playground, flower beds, and the school woods. The school basketball team trained in the open-air basketball court. In the middle of winter, they only wore short-sleeved shirts, and their bodies were steaming like boiling water.

Lu Mingfei and Chen Wenwen walked around the tree-lined path next to the basketball court and headed to the other side of the teaching building, passing by many students who were cleaning the public area.

"Aren't we going to the club classroom?" Lu Mingfei asked.

Lu Mingfei probably knew where Chen Wenwen was going to take him, and he was probably the only one in the class who knew that.

Sometimes during lunch break, Chen Wenwen would sneak out of the classroom and sit on a bench under a tree outside the teaching building to read. The bench was hidden behind the green belt, and only those sitting by the window looking down could see the sunlight shining on her cotton skirt and skin.

After listening to this, Chen Wenwen shook her head and said, "Someone might come to the club classroom at noon. If someone comes while we are talking about something, it might not be convenient."

The two sat down on the bench. Chen Wenwen straightened her soft and straight hair, then turned her head to look at Lu Mingfei: "Speaking of which, after our conversation this morning, did you get any inspiration, Lu Mingfei?"

"Yes." Lu Mingfei said seriously, "I decided to start writing a diary from today."

"what?"

Lu Mingfei shrugged, showing his ability to complain for the first time in a long time: "This way, when the next birthday comes for my little angel, I won't have to worry about what gift to give her."

Chen Wenwen chuckled and smiled.

"Lu Mingfei, your words are really interesting." Chen Wenwen said with a smile, her eyes sparkling, "But if you only write about Qiangqiang in your diary and don't write about Miaomiao, Miaomiao might get jealous."

"Then I won't write to the little goddess either?"

"That's not necessary..."

The idle chat ended here. After a pause, Lu Mingfei went straight to the point and asked Chen Wenwen what she thought of calling him out. Chen Wenwen must have thought of some good suggestions since she came to him on purpose.

Chen Wenwen nodded gently and said, "After chatting with you, Lu Mingfei, this morning, I thought about it and realized that surprises and details don't necessarily have to be expressed through gifts. For example, you can take Miaomiao to revisit the place where you two confirmed your relationship and recreate the scene at that time..."

Chen Wenwen probably really thought about how to help Lu Mingfei create a "sense of surprise". Taking his girlfriend to a holy place where they confirmed their feelings for each other, every bit along the way was a sweet memory, touching and romantic.

However, this suggestion does not seem to be very practical for Lu Mingfei.

The main reason was that the place where Lu Mingfei and Liu Miaomiao first fell in love with each other was probably in the Nibelungen subway station in the imperial capital. He couldn't possibly take Liu Miaomiao to the Nibelungen subway station like visiting a haunted house, right? And by the way, go visit his brother-in-law?

To put it another way, even if Liu Miaomiao didn't mind, it was not so easy to enter the Nibelungen in the Imperial Metro. Because the actual owner of Nibelungen, Xia Mi, was still sealed. Another way to enter Nibelungen was to brush the entire Imperial Metro line in one day.

Does he have to take Liu Miaomiao on the subway for a whole day on his birthday?
“Revisiting the old place might not be a good idea.”

Lu Mingfei, who was sitting on the bench, shook his head and tactfully rejected Chen Wenwen's proposal: "The opportunity for Miaomiao and I to be together was the school trip after graduating from junior high school. We went to the imperial capital at that time."

"Oh, so that's a bit difficult..."

Chen Wenwen tilted her head, a somewhat distressed expression appearing on her pretty face, as if she had encountered a math question in an exam that she couldn't answer. All the formulas and theorems she could think of were nowhere to be found, and the score was quite high, so she could only look at the question with an embarrassed look on her face.

Lu Mingfei looked at Chen Wenwen's beautiful profile, and after his gaze stayed on her for a while, he silently withdrew his gaze.

Chen Wenwen pretended not to notice Lu Mingfei's gaze. She lowered her eyes and tucked the hair on that side of Lu Mingfei's head behind her ear as if nothing had happened.

It's very strange that Chen Wenwen can't seem to simply understand how much she cares about this matter as helping her friend's relationship.

People are actually gossipy creatures. Just like when Chen Wenwen first met Lu Mingfei, she was actually secretly supporting Lu Mingfei and Miaomiao as a couple. Girls all love to eat candy between handsome men and beautiful women.

In college, if there is one person who is in a relationship, everyone in the dormitory will act as your strategist and give you advice; your friends will also give you a series of bad advice after knowing that you like a girl. This is essentially due to a gossip or a desire to stir up trouble.

Of course, there are differences, for example, Chu Zihang doesn't like to stir up trouble. He will only act like a caring older brother at a time and place where no one is around, and tell Lu Mingfei calmly and seriously that if you want to rob Nuonuo, he can be your driver and accompany you to smash the axle of the wedding car that will pick up Nuonuo. Just hold Nuonuo and he will help you stop Caesar.

However, Chu Zihang's help to Lu Mingfei and Chen Wenwen's help to Lu Mingfei seem to be a little different after all.

Chu Zihang saw a poor kid in Lu Mingfei, powerless and unable to do anything, and could only watch everything around him move forward and move further and further away, just like he saw himself on that rainy night. So he pushed Lu Mingfei with all his strength, trying to push Lu Mingfei to catch up with everything moving forward.

Chen Wenwen's help may not be pure, and it may even be a little childish. It's like a boy in high school who would push the class beauty to his good friend. He obviously likes the class beauty very much, but he would do such a pure and stupid behavior for the sake of brotherhood. Chen Wenwen is probably doing something similar...

She took great pains to come up with ideas for the relationship between Lu Mingfei and Liu Miaomiao, perhaps just to share some time with Lu Mingfei.

Chen Wenwen felt her heart pounding, not violently, but indescribably, just like the feeling of holding a little bear in spring and rolling down a hillside covered with clover.

"correct."

Chen Wenwen took a deep breath and said to Lu Mingfei without turning around: "Lu Mingfei, do you know the three holy places for dating?"

Chen Wenwen didn't turn around, so Lu Mingfei naturally didn't see the unusual light in Chen Wenwen's eyes. Hearing Chen Wenwen's question, he muttered in his heart, wondering if this was some very popular knowledge? How come everyone knew it?

From Xia Mi to the paralyzed senior brother and then to Chen Wenwen, it has been transferred back and forth several times.

“A Ferris wheel, an aquarium, and a movie theater?”

Chen Wenwen was stunned for a moment:
"So you knew that?"

"I know."

"Yeah, but think about it. After all, you have two Lu Mingfei... You must have taken Miaomiao and Qiangqiang there many times, right?"

"No way, I only took Miaomiao and Xiao Tiannv to the cinema." Lu Mingfei argued.

This is pure smearing! It makes him sound like the kind of scumbag who goes out on dates with different girls every day. Lu Mingfei feels that Chen Wenwen must have a misunderstanding about him.

“Eh, is that so?”

Chen Wenwen paused, then suddenly turned her head to look over. Her long, smooth hair slid down from her shoulders as she moved, and sunlight shone in through the gaps in her hair.

"Then how about picking a date location for Miaomiao's birthday in advance? Do a rehearsal for the date?"

Chen Wenwen pursed her lips and said, her eyes retreated from Lu Mingfei's face, and she hurriedly continued:
"Lu Mingfei, didn't you just say that the capital is too far away and it's inconvenient to go there? I thought about it and realized that we don't have to go back to the place where you confirmed your feelings for each other. Planning a date on Miaomiao's birthday is actually a detail. The point is not whether the gift really touches Miaomiao's heart, as long as Miaomiao can feel your sincerity, she will definitely be very touched."

This idea is actually a bit like when Hikigaya Hachiman taught Yuigahama Yui to make cookies. It doesn't necessarily have to be a delicious cookie to give to the other person, as long as the other person knows that this is a cookie you made yourself, the thought will naturally be conveyed.

"Sure." Lu Mingfei replied.

Then... take the little angel and the little dragon girl to the aquarium and the Ferris wheel respectively on the weekend?
It just so happened that he and Xia Mi had never had a proper date. Although that little dragon girl never quarreled or made a fuss, she would just quietly prepare a table of food and wait for you to come home. But even if Xia Mi didn't say it, Lu Mingfei knew that she must be looking forward to being like Liu Miaomiao, holding his hand and acting coquettishly in front of outsiders.

The last time I went out on a date alone with my little angel was back in Portugal. Since returning to China, we have always gone out on dates as a group of three.

I might as well make it up to them this weekend and consult their opinions. Then I can go out on a date with Miaomiao alone on her birthday. I want to be fair to all three.

Lu Mingfei sighed quietly in his heart. When the three of them were dating, he already felt that time was a bit insufficient. Now it has been upgraded to a four-person relationship. The whole weekend is not enough to share with his three girlfriends. He also needs to borrow money for the next weekend. There are four days off in two weeks, and three days have to be shared with his girlfriends.

No wonder in “The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber”, although the great leader Zhang had unparalleled magical powers and a great reputation, he was still deprived of power by Zhu Yuanzhang in the end.

It feels like he has the four beauties of Yitian, and he is already too busy to just coax Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo, Xiao Zhao, and Zhu'er. Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo, and Zhu'er are all troublesome people, and they are always scheming against each other. He is already overwhelmed with handling harem affairs, so how can he have the energy to manage the Mingjiao government?
"Then this Saturday? Lu Mingfei, are you free?" Chen Wenwen counted on her slender fingers one by one, "Let's go to the aquarium in the morning. As for the Ferris wheel, it's best to go in the afternoon, because I heard that you can see a beautiful sunset in the evening, but you have to time it well, otherwise it will be dark before you see the sunset..."

"?"

Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment, and after a few seconds he finally understood what Chen Wenwen meant.

So... Chen Wenwen, are you planning to take up Master Lu's last day of vacation?
