Chapter 32: Hiding Items in Such Places

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Looking at the innocent-looking Jiang Pan, Chen Feng rejected without hesitation.

“I’m sorry, we don’t seem to know each other very well.”

“Or rather, we don’t know each other at all.”

“Why should I say yes?”

Leng Ruzhi heard this from a distance at the entrance of the library and subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief.

Then, she could not help but feel nervous.

“That’s weird!”

“Why should I feel relieved that he rejected Jiang Pan?”

“What does Chen Feng’s actions have to do with me?” she thought.

At that thought, she saw that Chen Feng had turned to look at her.

Leng Ruzhi’s heart tightened again.

Just as she was about to say something, Chen Feng started to speak to her.

“Leng Ruzhi, is anything else the matter?”

“If you insist that I commit perjure and report others for bullying me, I won’t agree.”

“Or… do you think this student is also bullying me now?”

Hearing this, Leng Ruzhi felt uncomfortable. It was like she had a fishbone stuck in her throat.

She was so stunned that she could not say a word to refute it.

After all, the person involved had already said that there was no beef between him and Li Qiang. What could she do?

But soon, Leng Ruzhi convinced herself once again.

That was because Leng Ruzhi had a certain understanding of Chen Feng since the time they formed a team during the exam.

She knew that Chen Feng was a person who was unwilling to take the lead. However, at the same time, he was very meticulous and considerate.

Chen Feng must have his own reasons for doing so.

That was it!

Even if Li Qiang really bullied Chen Feng and demanded that Chen Feng unlock the library door for him…

It seemed that Chen Feng did not suffer any substantial losses.

Except…

At the thought of this, Leng Ruzhi could not help but glance at Jiang Pan.

However, why did he say that she assumed Jiang Pan was bullying him?

Jiang Pan did not try to hide from Leng Ruzhi. Hence, Leng Ruzhi saw everything clearly. How was it possible that she would misunderstand Jiang Pan?

Was Chen Feng being sarcastic? Or did he mean something else?

For a moment, Leng Ruzhi’s mind raced. She did not why, but she came to a ridiculous conclusion.

“Does he think that I like him?”

“Does he think that I’m getting in the way of him spending time with Jiang Pan?”

“He’s worried that I would be jealous and deliberately target Jiang Pan?”

“I’m not jealous!” she thought.

“You can do whatever you want!” Leng Ruzhi suddenly yelled.

Leng Ruzhi stomped her feet and turned to leave the library.

Chen Feng was dumbfounded.

“I just wanted Leng Ruzhi to keep a distance from me so that I would not attract attention.”

“What is with her reaction?” he thought, feeling perplexed by her sudden outburst.

Although he felt that something was strange about it, the outcome was good.

He did not want to think about it anymore.

Seeing Leng Ruzhi leave, Chen Feng lowered his head and began studying again.

On the other hand, Jiang Pan looked like she had not given up.

“Ahem!”

“Chen Feng, you have to come here every night to study, right?”

“I can sit further away from you. I won’t disturb you.”

“Please do me this favor, okay?”

Jiang Pan had a coquettish tone to her voice.

If it were any other student, they might not be able to withstand her charms and immediately agreed to her request.

After all, although Jiang Pan’s looks could not compare to Leng Ruzhi, who was publicly acknowledged as the school belle, she was still pretty.

Jiang Pan was petite. Her facial features were as exquisite as a porcelain doll’s, but her temperament was very much like a mischievous girl next door.

Coupled with the two buns on her head, it accentuated a kind of spiritual aura that she had.

Who could resist the charms of a girl like that?

“It’s already closing time.”

“If you’re not going to leave, be my guest,” said Chen Feng.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Pan’s face lit up with joy.

Just as she was about to say thank you, Chen Feng started to speak once more.

“I’ll tell Mr. Huang tomorrow that he doesn’t have to leave the door open for me.”

“I’ll open the library with my key and lock it from inside.”

The smile on Jiang Pan’s face froze when she heard that.

She was not a beast like Chen Feng, who seemed to be tireless and studied every day. She did not know how he did it.

The most she could do was to study another two hours after the library closed. That was her limit.

It would be meaningless if today was the only day she could study for an extra two hours.

At the thought of this, Jiang Pan seemed to have some resentment.

She could not help but ask, “Why won’t you agree to my request?”

“You won’t make any losses.”

Hearing that, Chen Feng finally had a slight reaction.

He looked up at Jiang Pan’s exquisite face and said word by word.

“Why should I agree?”

“So what if I don’t lose anything? I won’t gain anything either.”

Jiang Pan was stumped once more.

Chen Feng was right to say that too.

Just as Jiang Pan was feeling extremely conflicted, her expression suddenly became vigilant. She took half a step back and covered her small chest with her hands.

“You… I hope you aren’t thinking of asking me to do something special for you in order for you to agree to my request!”

“If that’s what you want, I won’t agree to it!”

Chen Feng was dumbfounded.

“Why are all the female classmates so strange today?”

“I didn’t say that at all!” he thought.

He was not in the mood to continue squabbling with Jiang Pan.

“Think what you want. I didn’t say that.”

“If there’s nothing else, please don’t interfere with my studies.”

After saying that, he lowered his head again, as if he did not have any intention to talk to Jiang Pan.

Seeing how resolute Chen Feng was, Jiang Pan suddenly felt a little dispirited.

However, she seemed to want to make a final attempt. After struggling internally for a moment, she stretched out a finger.

“A tier 1 dire beast inner core.”

“In exchange, I’ll come to the library and study for two hours a day for the rest of this year.”

“Two,” remarked Chen Feng.

“W-what?”

Jiang Pan was slightly stunned.

Chen Feng raised his head and looked at Jiang Pan with a serious expression.

“Two inner cores. In exchange, you can study for two hours every day after the library closes.”

“This is the base price. If you don’t agree, pretend I didn’t say anything.”

At this moment, Jiang Pan finally reacted.

As if she was afraid that Chen Feng would go back on his word, she actually reached inside her shirt, took out two tier 1 inner cores, and placed them on Chen Feng’s hand.

“Deal!” she said.

Chen Feng was dumbfounded.

“Woman, the place where you hide things is really unique!” he thought.

However, Jiang Pan did not seem to care about these things at all. Happiness washed over her, and she almost jumped for joy.

She no longer covered her chest, afraid of being taken advantage of.

Seeing how happy Jiang Pan was, Chen Feng smiled and shook his head helplessly. He kept the inner cores and continued reading.

He thought that Jiang Pan would have the awareness that she should leave him alone and head to another part of the library to study.

Unexpectedly, she looked at Chen Feng seriously and pondered for a few seconds before asking this question.

“A few days ago, the inner cores in a few metal boxes were taken away.”

“That was you, wasn’t it?”

As soon as she said that…

A strong chill instantly enveloped her.

Jiang Pan was so stunned that her entire body trembled.

The next second, she saw that there was a coldness in his eyes that she had never seen before.

She saw killing intent!
