Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

Chapter 689 Under the Guise of Distributing Wedding Candy
Lu Mingfei briefly explained his thoughts to Chu Zihang.

After listening, Chu Zihang lowered his head and nodded.

"I understand. So, Junior Brother Lu, you want to distribute wedding candy to all the students in the school and need my help, right?"

"It's not wedding candy... well, it's pretty much the same thing."

"Well, this isn't actually that difficult. The student council has organized similar events before, sending apples to all students at Christmas. The student council has some experience in this kind of thing, so just leave it to me."

"Senior brother is so righteous! ...But what's the best pretext?"

Lu Mingfei scratched his head: "We can't just say it's wedding candy, can we?"

After all, while Shilan High School has always turned a blind eye to student relationships, it still officially prohibits early dating. Everyone knows that you, Young Master Lu, are surrounded by school beauties, but to openly and brazenly hand out wedding candy to the entire school is just too much of a blatant act.

Chu Zihang said, "Leave it to me, I'll take care of it."

The future president of the Lionheart Society's words were still so reassuring. Hearing Chu Zihang say, "Leave it to me," Lu Mingfei felt relieved, knowing the matter was settled. Asking his stoic senior brother for help was definitely the right thing to do.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Chu Zihang, Lu Mingfei left the student council office. Judging from the mountain of documents piled on Chu Zihang's desk, he probably had quite a lot on his plate. Lu Mingfei tactfully ended the conversation, not wanting to disturb Chu Zihang any further.

……

The end of the semester went by quickly. Plus, June 7th and 8th were Thursday and Friday, the college entrance exam season, so the school gave them two days off.

And just like that, another week passed in the blink of an eye.

It could also be because they were about to transfer to a preparatory class in the capital and start living a real "big family" life, which made Lu Mingfei feel excited and expectant.

So much so that I don't really feel anything about my last days at Shilan Secondary School. I just wish this semester would end quickly.

But then again, does he need to rent a place in advance or something? Or could he just buy one directly?
It was still 2007, and housing prices in Beijing had not yet skyrocketed due to the upcoming Olympics. Buying a small villa with a garden or a large apartment was not considered expensive at the time.

Or does the college's preparatory program actually have dormitories? Separate dorms for boys and girls? No way, that's unacceptable!
But renting a place doesn't seem to be easy. After all, there are six of them now, although the girls don't mind sleeping together. However, when living together, they definitely need to give each other some personal space.

Furthermore, we also need to consider whether Aki might come over for a visit. After all, Aki has already decided to return to the academy's preparatory class as an intern teacher, and she will definitely visit Lu Mingfei's house privately, and who knows, she might even sleep with him.

Of course, I don't mean sleeping with Lu Mingfei! I just mean there might be a situation where he stays overnight... Of course, the former situation isn't necessarily a bad thing.

However, after much deliberation, Lu Mingfei decided to postpone his plan to rent an apartment in advance. After all, he didn't even know where the preparatory class in the capital was located, so he needed to rent a place nearby.

I wonder if Xiaotiannv's family owns a villa or two in the capital. If that's the case, he won't have to worry about renting a place; he can just stay at Xiaotiannv's house.

"A villa in the capital?"

Walking beside Lu Mingfei and entering the gates of Shilan Middle School with him, Su Xiaoqiang blinked and said, "Yes. My dad owns a villa in Beijing."

Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment upon hearing this: "Really?"

“Of course it’s true,” Su Xiaoqiang said. “I bought it the year before last, it hasn’t even been two years yet. They said if I get into Tsinghua or Peking University, I can go home to stay on weekends or something.”

Lu Mingfei knew, of course, that Xiaotiannv did not go to Tsinghua or Peking University in the end, but went to Fudan University in Shanghai, where she studied at the same school as Liu Miaomiao.

In fact, Lu Mingfei knew that Xiaotiannv's college entrance examination score that year was higher than the minimum admission score for Tsinghua and Peking Universities in the province that year. However, for some reason, Xiaotiannv did not choose to go to Tsinghua or Peking Universities, but went to Fudan University instead.

Perhaps it's because with her scores, she wouldn't be able to freely choose her major at Tsinghua or Peking University, while at Fudan University she could choose any major? Indeed, sometimes the major is more important than the university.

As for Lu Mingfei, if he hadn't been accepted by Kassel College, he probably would have gone to study in Shanghai...

Because of Shanghai's strong gaming atmosphere, many major esports events are held in Shanghai, making it convenient to watch the games live and maybe even join an esports team.

He remembered telling the little fairy about it.

"..."

Thinking of this, Lu Mingfei suddenly paused, glanced at Su Xiaoqiang beside him, and wondered if the reason why the little fairy did not fill in Tsinghua or Peking University on her college application but chose Fudan University was because he was also preparing to study in Shanghai at the time.

Did the little fairy really like him back then? Love him that much?

Perhaps noticing Lu Mingfei's gaze, Su Xiaoqiang turned her head and asked naturally, "Is there something dirty on my face?"

This actually reflects a closer relationship.

If it were last year's Little Fairy, and Lu Mingfei were staring at her profile like that, she would probably blush and yell at Lu Mingfei, "What are you looking at? Look again and I'll gouge your eyes out!"

If it were the young girl from a few months ago, if she noticed Lu Mingfei's gaze, she would probably just pretend not to see it, blush, and let her boyfriend secretly look at her like that.

Now, when the little fairy notices Lu Mingfei staring at her, she subconsciously wonders if there's something on her face that's causing him to keep staring.

The way the two of them get along has evolved from an ambiguous period of being more than friends but less than lovers, to a passionate young couple, and then to their current status as an old married couple.

Lu Mingfei said, "I didn't get any residue."

Su Xiaoqiang asked, "Then what were you looking at when you kept staring at me?"

Lu Mingfei said with a grin, "My wife looks so beautiful today, I almost can't resist giving her a kiss."

It seems the two haven't quite become an old married couple yet. Lu Mingfei's casual teasing made Su Xiaoqiang's pretty face instantly turn red. She instinctively glanced to the side, thankfully the surrounding classmates were some distance away and probably hadn't heard what Lu Mingfei had just said. "Stop!"

Su Xiaoqiang bit her lip and glared at Lu Mingfei: "If you want to kiss someone, go kiss Wenwen. We're just ordinary friends at school. Don't touch me!"

Chen Wenwen, who was happily gossiping, heard herself being called out and said with a smile, "What's the big deal? Friends can kiss each other. Didn't Miaomiao kiss Mingfei in front of the whole school at the sports meet?"

"..."

Su Xiaoqiang choked for a moment, thinking to herself, "Wenwen, is this how an official girlfriend should say something...? Encouraging her boyfriend to kiss another girl?!"

Su Xiaoqiang blushed, coughed lightly, and chose to change the subject: "But Mingfei, why did you suddenly ask me if my family has a villa in Beijing? Is there something wrong?"

"I'm thinking about where we'll live after we transfer to a school in the capital. If your family also has a villa in the capital, that would be convenient."

"Hmm... that's possible. But it depends on the location of the school, right? After all, the capital is quite big, and even if the academy allows us to stay off-campus, we can't stay too far away."

The group chatted as they walked toward the teaching building.

From an outsider's perspective, Lu Mingfei and Su Xiaoqiang had already broken up, yet they could walk side by side on campus as if nothing had happened. Furthermore, Chen Wenwen, who was on Lu Mingfei's other side, even joined in the conversation with a smile, seemingly unconcerned about her boyfriend chatting intimately with his ex-girlfriend. This should have seemed rather absurd.

However, the students at Shilan Middle School had long been used to this scene.

Just like in Gu Long's novel "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng": finding Lu Xiaofeng in a crowd is simple; just look for a man standing next to a stunningly beautiful woman, and that person is definitely Lu Xiaofeng. It's normal for a legendary figure like Lu Xiaofeng to be surrounded by school beauties.

It would be truly strange if Lu Mingfei came to school alone, without a girl by his side.

Because it was Monday, students who had just said goodbye to the weekend often lacked the courage to accept the arrival of Monday, and arriving at school late was a common phenomenon. So when Lu Mingfei and his classmates arrived at the classroom, there were only a few students present. Only Liu Miaomiao, who was always early, greeted them with a smile as soon as she saw them enter the classroom.

Lu Mingfei sat down in his seat, looking through the glass window at the sparse students outside, his mind preoccupied with the matter of his senior with facial paralysis.

Chu Zihang said that he would arrange everything for Lu Mingfei and that Lu Mingfei didn't need to worry. He even took the initiative to ask for the contact information of the female clerk from No Name and would handle all the communication with her.

Given how reliable the senior with facial paralysis is, if he says that Lu Mingfei doesn't need to worry about this matter, then Lu Mingfei definitely doesn't need to worry.

But he was still very curious about what name and method Chu Zihang would use to distribute those wedding candy gift boxes.
Just as Lu Mingfei was thinking this, a soft knocking sounded at the classroom door.

Lu Mingfei turned his head and saw a girl standing at the classroom door. Judging from the color of her school uniform collar, she should be a senior in the second year of high school. She was also wearing a student council member's armband.

"Excuse me, everyone."

The girl nodded politely to everyone and asked softly, "I'd like to ask, has your class's entertainment committee member arrived in class?"

Chen Wenwen stood up from her seat in a daze and raised her hand: "That's me, senior sister. Is there anything I can help you with?"

The girl said, "Excuse me, could you please come with me for a moment? There's something going on at the student council... Hmm, it would be best if you could also call a stronger guy."

"A boy with a bit more strength..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Wenwen subconsciously turned her head and saw that Lu Mingfei had already stood up.

"I'll go with Wenwen," Lu Mingfei said with a smile.

"Mm." Chen Wenwen nodded.

The two of them got up and walked towards the door. When they got there, they realized that they weren't the only ones waiting outside. Lu Mingfei even spotted the class monitor and Lin Huihui among them.

It looks like all the entertainment committee members from each class on the entire floor of the teaching building have gathered here.

Seeing Lu Mingfei and Chen Wenwen come out, Lin Huihui greeted them with a smile: "Good morning, Wenwen and class monitor. I knew it would be you, class monitor, who would accompany Wenwen to the student council office!"

Lin Huihui... I don't think I'm your class monitor, right? It's one thing to call me that occasionally, but shouldn't you be more careful in front of your class monitor?!
Lu Mingfei glanced at the slightly resentful expression on the face of the class monitor standing next to Lin Huihui and couldn't help but think to himself.

"Everyone's here, let's go," said the senior student from the student council.

A group of people followed behind their senior sister in a lively and bustling manner, which was quite a spectacular sight.

Lu Mingfei and his group were standing towards the back of the line. Chen Wenwen whispered to Lin Huihui next to her, "Huihui, do you know why the student council called us there?"

The reason Chen Wenwen asked Lin Huihui was because Lin Huihui was also a member of the student council.

Lin Huihui glanced at Lu Mingfei out of the corner of her eye and said with a grin, "I don't know the specifics, I only know that it was arranged by Senior Brother Chu. Maybe he saw that we were studying too hard at the end of the semester and was preparing to give us some perks?"

What Senior Brother Chu arranged?

It's already the end of the semester, there are no more sports meets or similar events, and the school anniversary is still a long way off. Logically, the student council shouldn't have any more tasks to handle; they should be responsible for coordinating with the entertainment committee members from each class.

So when the senior from the student council came to the class looking for Chen Wenwen, Lu Mingfei's first thought was, could it be about the time when Senior Brother Chu helped him distribute wedding candy?

Now that Lin Huihui said it was arranged by Senior Brother Chu, Lu Mingfei's suspicions were even more confirmed.
