Lu Mingfei Development Program

Chapter 181 Akiba Shizumi (4k)

"Why don't you live on campus?" Lu Mingfei couldn't help asking. Although Xia Mi's house in southern Jiangsu was an old house and so remote, her family was actually not bad to be able to go to Yanjing.

Before entering the Kassel preparatory class, she studied at the Affiliated High School of Yanda University, and was later recruited by Kassel College. With such a family background, living on campus is not a problem at all.

"It's more comfortable to live alone." Xia Mi replied, "There are several people living in one room, and no one has privacy. I can't stand this feeling."

"Do you live alone?" Lu Mingfei asked again.

"What else?" Xia Mi turned her head and rolled her eyes at him. "I am a high school student after all, and this is my own home. What is there to be afraid of?"

She suddenly tilted her head, squinted her eyes, and smiled like a cunning kitten: "Or do you want to do good deeds like today in the future? Send me more?"

Lu Mingfei rolled his eyes. Putting aside her cute look, her three-dimensional figure was probably around 100. Anyone who was blind enough to see her would be in big trouble.

Xia Mi jumped upstairs in front, and Lu Mingfei followed her upstairs. The feeling of an old house was unique to them, old but not dilapidated. The corridor was clean but covered with a thick layer of dust. The doors on both sides of the corridor were also tightly closed, and there was also a lot of dust.

This place is even older than the suburbs, so naturally there are fewer people left. They met only a handful of people along the way, and they were all as old as these old houses. Seeing Xia Mi coming back, they were all very excited, and asked Xiao Mi how long she would stay this time? How long would it take before she left again? Are you alone?
Xia Mi answered with a smile, saying that she would finish high school here. The old people patted her and said, "Okay, okay, their happy pills are back." They also said that if you encounter any trouble, remember to go to them. Although their bones are old, they still have some energy in some places.

Xia Mi agreed sweetly. For an old woman whose children and grandchildren are not around, who was born here and may die here, the meaning of her existence may be more than just a cute little girl next door.

Lu Mingfei was no longer surprised by this. This little troublemaker was just like that. She was always tossing around like a kitten, but she was not annoying, she was only likable. Of course, Lu Mingfei still felt that it would be better if she was quieter.

Xia Mi opened the door, ran to several rooms, and opened all the windows. Lu Mingfei stayed in the living room to look around. This kind of old house would not be too big, but it was not small either, just like he remembered.

No one had lived there for over a year. The furniture in the living room was covered with white cloth with a thin layer of dust on it, and there was a faint smell of decay in the air.

Xia Mi's luggage was placed in a corner of the living room, a pile of large and small bags, it looked like more than just a change of clothes. According to what she said just now, she just came back last night, and after arriving home, she threw her luggage in and went out to find a hotel to spend the night.

Lu Mingfei found a relatively clean place to put down his bag, took off his coat and rolled up his sleeves.

Putting the family photo in his hand back on the TV cabinet, Lu Mingfei looked at the newly renovated old house with some satisfaction and nodded.

Then he slapped his forehead, realizing that something was wrong. He seemed to be just here to send this troublemaker home? Why did he mop the floor, wipe the table, and throw away the garbage while sending him home?

There were hurried footsteps in the hallway. Xia Mi, who had probably gone to clean her room, came back with a lot of bags. She hooked the door shut with her heel, with two green onions under one arm and a bunch of spinach under the other.

"Too enthusiastic. I just wanted to buy some vegetables, but they gave me a little at a time and it turned out like this." Xia Mi put the bags into the kitchen, found an apron to tie on, lit a fire to boil water, and her movements looked quite decent.

She has a slender figure, with long, smooth hair standing up, and a loose apron, which makes her look like a housewife.

Lu Mingfei leaned against the kitchen door, biting the fruit Xia Mi had just bought, and asked suspiciously, "Can you cook?"

The little troublemaker's impetuous appearance reminded Lu Mingfei of her mother. She was like this when she cooked, with great fanfare and clanging, as if she was fighting a war. As a result, the food was either overcooked here or burnt there, either because there was too much salt or no salt at all...

Xia Mi glanced at him and snorted, "Humph, a man should be looked at with new eyes after three days of absence. I have been completely transformed in this year!"

"Really? Then I'll wait." Lu Mingfei said, walking around the old house casually.

A house that has not been lived in for a year is bound to feel a bit cold and lonely. A family of four once lived in such an old house, so it inevitably seemed a bit crowded. But when someone came back after a year's absence, it seemed a bit empty again.

The door of Xia Mi's bedroom, which she had tidied herself, was open for ventilation. Lu Mingfei stopped at the door and took a look inside. He instantly understood why the little troublemaker didn't want to live with anyone.

A cabinet is filled with figurines of all sizes, with exquisite paint and fine details, the kind that would make people feel distressed if there were even a slight flaw. If such things were placed in a dormitory with multiple people, and someone picked them up and played with them casually, if the paint fell off or a piece broke, your heart would be more than just bleeding.

Next to the bedroom window was the big sycamore tree outside the old house. The window was open at this time, and the emerald yellow leaves of the sycamore tree outside the door floated into the room and fell on the table beside the bed. Lu Mingfei was sharp-eyed and saw a framed photo on the table.

The two girls were holding hands and looking at the camera, one with a blank expression, the other with a wide smile, but with a hint of reluctance. Behind them was a boy, also with a smile on his face, which looked a bit like relief, but also a bit like gloating.

Lu Mingfei couldn't help but laugh, just like himself in the photo.

Naturally, he was familiar with the photo. A few days before the little troublemaker was leaving for Yanjing, she came to Chu Yuzhen crying and said that she was going to Yanjing and it would probably be difficult for her to see her in the future. She also said that she wanted to keep more photos so that she could take them out and look at them when she missed her in the future.

As for Lu Mingfei, he was pulled over by the "mercy". So much so that when taking pictures, he couldn't help laughing at the thought of getting rid of this little troublemaker.

The sky gradually darkened, the noise and heat of the day gradually disappeared, and a hint of coolness gradually crept up. However, in the small house that had been empty for a year, the little smell of fireworks made the coolness faint.

Lu Mingfei held the bowl and chopsticks, poking the ribs in front of him suspiciously: "Are you sure you didn't mistake sugar for salt, or salt for sugar?"

"This is sweet and sour pork ribs! It's normal to have salt and sugar!" Xia Mi couldn't help but puffing up her cheeks. If there wasn't a table between them, she would probably use her head butt again.

Lu Mingfei looked at the dishes that were so much better than Auntie Weird's and thought that even if they tasted worse, they would still be much better than Auntie Weird's. At the very least, they would still be better than the concentrated nutrient solution, right?

He picked up a piece of pork ribs hesitantly, put it into his mouth and chewed it for a few times as if he had made up his mind. Then his eyes slowly widened and he looked at the little troublemaker in front of him with an incredible look on his face, who had a proud face and a look as if it was almost written with "Praise me! Praise me!"

“You, you, you, how is this possible!” Lu Mingfei also cooks by himself, but compared to this, it can only be said to fill his stomach.

Xia Mi said with pride: "I am an Aquarius, and Aquarius people are good at cooking!"

"Impossible, impossible, Xia Mi can do nothing but cause trouble for others. Who are you and why are you pretending to be her?" Lu Mingfei still hasn't gotten over the shock of Xia Mi's evolution from a troublemaker to a troublemaker who can cook. "You figured it out." Xia Mi's mouth turned into an "evil" smile, "To tell you the truth, I'm the Dragon King, the great Dragon King who can eat all the boys like you who don't know how to be humble!"

Lu Mingfei looked heartbroken. This was bad. It seemed that this little troublemaker had the right to climb over his head and act tyrannically.

"I also made Tremella soup. It's my own secret recipe and you can't get it outside." Xia Mi pushed a bowl of soup in front of him.

Lu Mingfei looked at her suspiciously: "I'm not a patient, why are you doing this?"

"As long as it tastes good, who cares who it's made for." Xia Mi answered vaguely, then seeing Lu Mingfei's contemptuous look, she pouted and said, "Okay, I admit it. I heard that my senior sister was hospitalized and wanted to give her a surprise. But she got better before I even finished making the soup."

"So you're just using me to taste your food, right?" Lu Mingfei was angry.

Xia Mi raised her head, her face full of pride again: "Humph, just tell me whether you got to eat it or not!"

Then, she rolled her eyes and said, "By the way, I was planning to make breakfast for myself, and bring it to school for my senior sister to try. Unfortunately, this place is too remote, and it's hard to buy vegetables, and the ones that are available are not fresh. It would be great if someone could help buy some vegetables, maybe we could catch up together."

Lu Mingfei clenched his chopsticks tightly and buried his head in eating.

……

The evening breeze was blowing gently. Lu Mingfei waved his hand to the little troublemaker lying on the window beside him, then walked away in the moonlight, stepping on more and more fallen leaves.

The old town is not far from the suburbs. After all, it is also an old and forgotten place. Otherwise, it would take him a lot of time to go back and forth.

When he returned to his home, he passed the stairs and an old man who was enjoying the cool air downstairs told him that there was a package for him. The old man always enjoyed the cool air at the staircase entrance day and night, so he simply took up the job of helping people collect the express delivery.

After thanking her, Lu Mingfei twisted the package and shook it. It felt like some clothes, probably the school uniform that Sister Chu had mentioned to him during the day.

He went back upstairs and unpacked the package to take a look. There were two sets of school uniforms for summer and winter, both with dark green tops and black pants, matched with white shirts and crimson scarves. They looked the same on the outside, except for the difference in thickness.

He changed into a suit out of curiosity. The size was right and the material was better than Shilan's. There was also his name on the sleeve of the school uniform. Lu Mingfei was no longer surprised by this. It seemed that besides himself, many people knew the size of his clothes.

Clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. When Lu Mingfei looked at himself in the mirror, he was almost intimidated by the appearance of that nobleman who was relying on the power of others to bully others.

At this time, someone knocked on the door, but he didn't go out. He just shouted "I'm inside", and the person outside pushed the door and came in. As expected, when Lu Mingfei returned to the living room, he saw Renata sitting quietly on the sofa, waiting, delicate as a doll.

Lu Mingfei sat opposite. Renata first took a closer look at his Cassel school uniform, which he had not changed out of, and then said straight to the point: "What do you think of this girl Xia Mi?"

Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment. What happened today? It was okay for Chen Motong who was usually nervous, but why did Renata, who usually looked very serious, ask this question?

The sound of high heels came from outside the door. Jiude Mai leaned against the door frame. She took off her glasses and played with them in her hands. Her silky black hair fell down, and the aura of a peerless enchantress once again occupied the high ground.

Lu Mingfei also saw Su Enxi twisting and turning to hide outside the door frame, carefully revealing half of her face. She might think she was hiding well, but her half butt that could not be hidden had already exposed her position.

Lu Mingfei was shocked. He just treated people to ice cream, sent them home, helped them clean up, and had a meal. What was going on with the three trials?
Jiude Mai at the door added: "I saw that girl today, and I feel that her hidden bloodline may not be as simple as A-level."

"Grade A? Is it that high?" Lu Mingfei was a little surprised that the little troublemaker's bloodline was actually at the same level as Sister Chu.

Apart from S-level, A-level is the highest level in Kassel Academy. The superwomen in front of him are all at this level, as are Sister Chu and Lucrecia, and Patsy of dangerous bloodline.

"Her bloodline may not be as simple as A-grade." Renata in front of Lu Mingfei answered, "We guess that her bloodline may be higher than this, or even more incomprehensible."

“Can’t understand?” Lu Mingfei was a little confused about what this meant.

"That would be a higher level existence that humans cannot understand. So, what do you think of her?" Renata looked at him and said seriously, "What is your first impression of her? This is very important to us."

Is it necessary to be so serious? Lu Mingfei thought to himself, but when he saw Renata's serious face, he still thought about it.

He looked a little conflicted. To be honest, if Xia Mi, this little troublemaker, didn't act cute and try to make trouble for him, he might think that this girl was pretty cute.

He told Renata his thoughts. Renata looked at him silently and said, "I see. She is a noisy but cute girl."

"Please include pretending to be cute in your calculations!" Lu Mingfei added seriously, but after hearing his answer, Renata had already stood up and left.

In the next room, Su Enxi came over and couldn't help asking, "That's it? Are we just going to ignore it?"

"I trust his first impression," Renata replied. "Dragons are extinct, and the dragon kings are probably the same."

Jude Mai shrugged and said nothing, but also made her position clear.

"Hey, hey, that's, that's..." Su Enxi said, looking at the door opposite, then threw herself on the sofa, tore open a bag of potato chips, and said in self-abandonment, "Then I don't care, anyway, there is always a taller roof if the sky collapses."

　I'm caught up again. There's a lot to do at the end of the year. Please forgive me.
