Chapter 368: 361, had a harmonious conversation with Old Huo! (9)

Because of the incident with this month’s exam, Huo Feng held a grudge against Huo Mingshan.

So now, when Huo Feng returned to Shen Jianhua’s home and saw Huo Mingshan in the living room, he acted as if he saw nothing and walked straight past, planning to go upstairs.

But Huo Mingshan saw him and immediately called out, "Huo Feng!"

Huo Feng acted like he didn’t hear Huo Mingshan’s voice coming from behind him and stepped onto the staircase, climbing step by step toward the third floor.

"Huo Feng, stop right there!"

In the living room, Huo Mingshan shouted at him.

However, Huo Feng still ignored Huo Mingshan and went straight upstairs to his room, where he casually locked the door.

He came back from Pu Sangzhi’s house feeling quite good, as he had decided to put the exam incident behind him.

And then he had the misfortune of running into old Huo.

Running into old Huo was always an unlucky thing for him, and now, it was even more irritating!

After returning to his room, Huo Feng took off his coat, threw it on his desk, and sat down on his bed in a huff. He snorted and said, "He even has the nerve to see me! How shameless!"

Huo Feng looked down on Ho Ming Shan!

Upstairs on the second floor, Huo Mingshan was unable to call Huo Feng down, so he got up himself, ready to take the initiative to find Huo Feng.

Shen Jianhua really couldn’t stand Huo Mingshan, so as soon as Huo Mingshan arrived, Shen Jianhua went out for a stroll and didn’t want to stay in the same space as Huo Mingshan.

At this time, Shen Nuan was the only one accompanying Huo Mingshan in the living room.

Shen Nuan also knew about the incident with Huo Feng, so seeing Huo Feng behaving so petulantly, she felt it was understandable.

"Brother-in-law, Huo Feng is a very unforgiving person. I think you better apologize to him on WeChat," Shen Nuan suggested to Huo Mingshan.

But Huo Mingshan stubbornly said, "I’m already here; I must see the boy. You said he’s angry. If I message him, will he respond? I have to find him in person to get a few words in with him."

Huo Mingshan knew Huo Feng well, after all, he was his father.

So even knowing that Huo Feng would throw a tantrum at him, Huo Mingshan had to make the trip.

At home, Shen Yu was flustered over this matter and had been urging Huo Mingshan since Friday to find Huo Feng and apologize to him.

Huo Mingshan had actually already come on Friday, but he didn’t encounter Huo Feng. So today was his second trip...

In any case, Huo Mingshan had to speak with Huo Feng this trip.

Otherwise, his visit would have been in vain.

Thinking this, Huo Mingshan went upstairs and arrived at the door of Huo Feng’s room.

He tried the doorknob and found the door was locked from the inside, clearly Huo Feng was on guard against him.

At his side, Shen Nuan quickly spoke up, "Dear nephew, open the door for me, I have something to discuss with you."

From inside, Huo Feng’s loud voice came out, "I’m tired, no time to deal with you. Whatever it is, we’ll talk tomorrow!"

Shen Nuan tapped on the door and continued persistently shouting, "We can’t wait until tomorrow, I really need to talk to you; it’s extremely urgent! Please let me in!"

Inside the room, there was a moment of silence.

After a moment, Huo Feng said, "Has that person left?"

It was well known that by ’that person’, he was referring to Huo Mingshan.

Shen Nuan turned to look at Huo Mingshan, saw him signaling with his eyes, and ad-libbed, "He’s gone! If he hadn’t left, would I come to find you? Open the door for me, please!"

Then, Huo Feng sighed, got up from the bed, walked to the door, and casually unlocked it.

But as soon as he opened the door, he came face to face with Huo Mingshan’s annoying old mug!

Huo Feng instinctively tried to close the door, but Huo Mingshan’s movements were a bit faster. He managed to block the door with his slipper and then used his sturdy body to push it open, easily breaking through!

"You little brat, wouldn’t let me in!"

After successfully entering the room, Huo Mingshan began with a smug accusation.

Huo Feng rolled his eyes at Huo Mingshan, lay back on the bed, picked up his phone, and started to fiddle with it while deliberately ignoring Huo Mingshan.

Huo Feng’s lukewarm reaction was also within Huo Mingshan’s expectations.

So, Huo Mingshan did not stand on ceremony with Huo Feng and casually picked up a chair, sitting down next to Huo Feng.

Shen Nuan saw that the father and son had positioned themselves for a long talk, so she tactfully left the room, pulling the door closed behind her.

As she was leaving, unsurprisingly, she received a fierce glare from Huo Feng.

It was because Huo Feng was still holding a grudge against her for selling him out!

Of course, Shen Nuan acted as if she hadn’t seen it at all.

After Shen Nuan left, only the father and son remained in the room...

The relationship between the two was already awkward, and now, after the incident of cheating during the monthly exam, their dynamic had become completely misaligned.

Consequently, in the room where only the two of them were left, the atmosphere was oppressive and uncomfortable, making both the father and son feel quite uneasy.

After about three minutes of silence, Huo Mingshan took the initiative to speak, "This time, for the monthly exam, Sangzhi has secured a chance for your exoneration. You know about it, right?"

Huo Feng, holding his phone, purposefully started scrolling through TikTok, pretending not to hear Huo Mingshan, acting as if he hadn’t heard a thing.

Huo Mingshan could accept this ignoring behavior because, before coming here, he had mentally prepared himself to remain calm and deal with all of Huo Feng’s temperaments.

Still, without showing any emotion, Huo Mingshan continued, "Monday afternoon, come to the office and retake this math test. As long as you can do it on your own, it will be recognized that you didn’t cheat. The punishment for cheating will be canceled, and an announcement will be broadcast to inform everyone that you didn’t cheat."

Even after this speech, Huo Feng still ignored him.

Of course, as Huo Feng’s father and a person who thoroughly understood Huo Feng’s rebellious psychology, he was prepared to endure it at this moment!

"Don’t think that I came here this time to lower my face and apologize to you. I tell you, I hit you and scolded you that day, merely because your attitude was too bad. If your attitude had been better, I wouldn’t have disciplined you like that. So, you need to reflect on yourself!"

Having said that, Huo Mingshan pointed at Huo Feng, "Also, this time you really surprised me a lot."

It was only at this sentence that Huo Feng could not resist giving Huo Mingshan a glance.

Huo Mingshan had never praised Huo Feng before, even though Huo Feng had made such progress last year, Huo Mingshan still hadn’t praised him.

This sudden compliment gave Huo Feng the illusion that Huo Mingshan was about to praise him!

Huo Feng admitted to himself that he was still somewhat disappointing.

About what Huo Mingshan was going to say next, Huo Feng was quite interested...

"I never expected that, after your incident, Sangzhi would do so much for you," Huo Mingshan said unhurriedly.

After he finished, Huo Feng withdrew his gaze, involuntarily rolling his eyes at him.

Because that damn old man wasn’t actually going to praise him! He was praising Pu Sangzhi!

Well, damn...

So the father-son relationship had become this stiff; there was no need to mend it in this lifetime.

"That day, after you caused a scene in the office, Sangzhi also came that afternoon," Huo Mingshan continued to recount the events of that afternoon. "As soon as Sangzhi arrived at the office, she told me she was there to clear your name. Then she pulled out a bunch of evidence to prove you couldn’t have cheated."

On the bed, Huo Feng listened earnestly to what Huo Mingshan was saying.

However, he told himself that he was purely interested in hearing what Pu Sangzhi had done for him; he had no interest in the other nonsense!

"In our office, the most sharp-tongued is the class teacher of Class 2. When Sangzhi came to defend you, the class teacher of Class 2 came out to make things difficult for her, saying a lot of things that attacked you. Sangzhi spoke up for you in return."

At this point, Huo Mingshan had to nod in approval, "Sangzhi, ah, she really does have a way with words, at least much better than you. I saw her spout a few fierce sentences that left Teacher Yang speechless and, moreover, she didn’t use a single foul word, only spoke rational arguments. In this, she handled it much better than you. At least she maintained respect for her teachers and she leveled her criticisms at Teacher Yang from a moral standpoint, leaving Teacher Yang’s face flushed with anger."

Hearing this, Huo Feng couldn’t help but interject, "That old woman herself has moral issues! She deserves to be criticized!"

Seeing that Huo Feng picked up on his words, Huo Mingshan knew that Huo Feng’s mood had apparently improved, and he promptly nodded, "Later, to clear your name, I also called back the invigilating teachers and Chen Ruixiang. Originally, if you had come back, this matter could have been resolved that day. But since you didn’t return, Sangzhi took your place and confronted the lies of the others."

Huo Feng’s curiosity was piqued as he glanced at Huo Mingshan and once again couldn’t help but speak up, "Did they bully her?"

Huo Mingshan nodded, "Yes, and she even cried."

"Damn!"

Huo Feng couldn’t help but swear, "How could you let her cry! Are you not capable of protecting your students? Even if you don’t stand up for someone like me, you should protect your top students! What kind of teacher are you!"

Unexpectedly, Huo Mingshan found himself being criticized by Huo Feng.

He broke out in a sweat...
