Lu Mingfei Development Program

Chapter 210 The Eve of Freedom
"What are you thinking about?" Lu Mingfei turned around and looked at Chen Motong, who still had an indifferent expression on his face, as if he was just taking a walk.

The latter continued to blow bubbles leisurely, with her hands in her shirt pockets, her long legs still hopping... She looked so relaxed, as if what had just happened had nothing to do with her.

"There's nothing we can do about it." Chen Motong blew a bubble and said casually, "He's like a sticky candy. If you don't let him give up completely, he'll always think he has a chance to take advantage of it."

She held her head with a headache and said, "I just helped him when I was teaching a blind kid in kindergarten. Who knew he would stick with me for so long?"

Lu Mingfei looked at her expressionlessly: "Is this why you dragged me into all this shit?"

"This doesn't count as being dragged in, I've already said it, you help me deal with him, and I'll help you deal with Lucrecia." Chen Motong looked at him and said, "I can't guarantee anything else, but I'm definitely the person in the world who knows Lucrecia best besides her parents."

"Maybe even Patsy wouldn't dare to say that." Lu Mingfei was so angry that he laughed.

"Oh, and there's this maid." Chen Motong added, "Gattuso's family seems to be quite chaotic, just like my family. This maid is probably sent by another faction in her family. And if Lucrecia is dealt with, the maid will have no choice but to obey."

Lu Mingfei glanced at her silently, and Chen Motong looked up and looked at him without caring. A gust of wind blew at an inopportune time, blowing up Chen Motong's red hair and covering her equally red eyes.

Her eyes were hazy and hidden under her hair, making it difficult to understand what she was thinking.

"Using your friend's fiancé as a shield, you are really a good friend of Lucrecia." Lu Mingfei couldn't help laughing.

"Even if Lucrecia knew, she wouldn't think it was a big deal. She is that kind of person. When she sees someone she likes, she thinks only she is worthy of him or her, and everyone else is just a supporting role." Chen Motong said, as if she didn't understand the subtle sarcasm in his words.

She nodded and continued, "She'll just think I'm crazy again. People who are close to me know that I occasionally do some crazy things."

Lu Mingfei looked at her silently: "It seems that you are quite aware of your mental state. I know there is a Sacred Heart Hospital in southern Jiangsu. It is said that it has made great achievements in psychiatry. Why don't you go and take a look."

"...Come and see it when you have time." Chen Motong said softly.

She did not continue to speak, but silently looked at Lu Mingfei, her crimson eyes and pale face vaguely visible under the shadow of her hair. In the interlaced light, her eyes took on a cold dark red color, as if she was carefully observing Lu Mingfei through some invisible peephole.

Here it comes again... Lu Mingfei looked away. Chen Motong would occasionally look at him with this kind of inexplicable gaze. It couldn't be called scary or weird, but it was quite confusing.

Chen Motong suddenly smiled, she lifted her hair, and her pale face, which seemed to be a little cold, returned to the sunlight again. She leaned against the guardrail and said, "Who doesn't want to go crazy? As the saying goes, we judge by deeds rather than by heart. No one is perfect in the world. It's not bad to go crazy and vent occasionally."

Lu Mingfei looked at her silently. To be honest, he also felt that Chen Motong was indeed a very free and easy person. It seemed nothing strange that the little fat man was so devoted to her. Of course, it would be better if she stayed away from him.

……

In the morning, Lu Mingfei, wearing the Shilan school uniform, stood under the old sycamore tree with his bag in hand, waiting for Xia Mi. It was only a short weekend, but he felt it was a bit long.

He looked up and saw that the leaves on the old sycamore tree had almost all fallen. This tree might be really old. When other trees were just beginning to turn slightly yellow, it was already bare and exuded a dead aura visible to the naked eye, just like this old neighborhood.

This neighborhood is even quieter than the last time I came here. According to the little troublemaker, an elderly person who lived alone suddenly fell seriously ill and went to the hospital for a long time, which scared his children. The children of other elderly people were also shocked and took their parents away one after another.

As time went by, the old people gradually left, and the young people were unwilling to come back, so this place gradually became deserted. Now, Xia Mi was almost the only one left here. That was why she dared to go upstairs and jump off the building alone that day, because no one paid attention to this place.

Lu Mingfei advised the little troublemaker that this place was deserted and she might as well go back to school and live on campus. It was inappropriate for a girl to stay alone in this old neighborhood that could be used as a horror movie location.

Then this little troublemaker was not happy at the time. She stood in front of Lu Mingfei with her hands on her hips and asked angrily, what is the location of a horror movie? This is where she grew up. If one day most people in the suburbs have left, and a horror film crew wants to go there to shoot, will he be happy?
She also said that now that her bloodline has been awakened, it would be bad if she really lived on campus. Who knows when she will reveal her true colors and be discovered... blah blah, she sounded quite reasonable.

Lu Mingfei stopped talking immediately. He himself didn't dislike his own family, so why would he think that others would dislike his family? As for the revelation, he thought that as long as this little troublemaker didn't get carried away and run to the roof of the dormitory to make a leap of faith, there would probably be no problem.

However, this little troublemaker is in a state of high interest after just awakening. If someone is really blind enough to take advantage of this little troublemaker, then the headlines of Sunan the next day will probably be something like "Sixteen-year-old girl captures gangster with one hand, cute girl is as brave as any man!"

Lu Mingfei didn't even mention letting the little troublemaker live on campus, he just came earlier every morning.

After hesitating for a while, Xia Mi finally finished her work. Lu Mingfei watched her holding the thermos cup for Chu Yuwei in one hand and her schoolbag in the other, and looking out the small window where she usually stood waiting for him.

As if he understood what she was going to do, Lu Mingfei couldn't help but slap his forehead. Sure enough, after the little troublemaker closed the window, he casually waved his hand to call for the breeze, then jumped forward and was lifted by the wind and landed lightly on the ground.

Xia Mi patted her skirt which was a little messy because of the wind. She was wearing knee-high cotton stockings, but just now, her fair and slender thighs were inevitably exposed in the morning light, adding a touch of beauty to this late autumn morning.

Then she raised her head and looked at the expressionless Lu Mingfei and Li Zao who was hitting her on the head.

“You haven’t even started to gain weight yet, but your courage has started to grow first, right?” Lu Mingfei said unhappily.

"Stop playing!" Xia Mi protected her head with her schoolbag, "There are not many people around here, no one will notice!"

"Is this something you can't notice? Your skirt flew up just now!" Lu Mingfei became even angrier.

Then he suddenly understood, from the way Chu Yuwei looked at him silently that night, naughty kids are definitely the most annoying creatures in the world!
...Lu Mingfei entered the school gate of Shilan, and behind her was Xia Mi who was still protecting her head with her schoolbag.

"I'm going to find my senior sister!" Xia Mi said with a sigh of relief, and ran away. But not long after running, she bumped into someone who looked like a starving ghost reincarnated.

"Junior sister, you smell so good... Oh no, it's the food you made that smells so good! You're a good person too!" Figel was so moved that he almost cried. Then he held the thermos cup and looked up. Her neck, which was not slender but still had a bit of beauty, moved twice, and the big cup of fragrant and tender lean meat porridge was finished.

Xia Mi, who was holding a spoon and a small bowl, was stunned. She had intended to use this small bowl to serve food to this starving senior sister. She took back the empty thermos cup and shook it twice as if she couldn't believe it, only then she was sure that it was really gone.

Seeing Xia Mi who was a little bit hit, Figel patted her on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, Junior Sister. I have never eaten other people's food for free! If you have any problems, just tell me. I didn't spend seven years in the academy in vain!"

It sounds like it's true... Lu Mingfei said in his heart. Figel's height is very stressful for boys, and it's a dimensionality reduction attack for the little troublemakers. It looks like a big sister greeting her little sisters.

Lu Mingfei felt that if there were no rumors that he was a school bully, Figel would definitely be the best candidate for the position. Then, when he saw the reincarnated senior sister looking at him, he turned his head away as if he was just passing by.

However, Figel put his other hand on his shoulder and said, "Junior brother, you haven't come to see me for two days! Can you bear to watch me, your senior sister, shamelessly enter the cafeteria?"

“How can you bear it?” Lu Mingfei pulled her hand away expressionlessly.

“You, you really could do it!” Figel acted in pain, his exaggerated acting made Lu Mingfei’s eyes twitch.

"Forget it, this is nothing compared to the pain of missing the big news." Figel said, quickly taking out a small notebook from his school uniform pocket.

Then, she pushed Xia Mi, who had not yet recovered from the shock of having the breakfast she had worked so hard to prepare for her senior sister drunk up like a cow chewing a peony, to sit beside the flower bed.

"Junior sister, I swear on the ethics of a journalist that every word you say will appear verbatim on the news page of the academy's Night Watchman Forum." Figel's face was so serious that Lu Mingfei actually felt that this guy might still have some ethics!
"Tell me about what happened after you met Zero." Figel said excitedly, "I've already thought of a title for this one. It's called 'Heart Critical Attack! Close Encounter with the Heart Thief Zero'!"

"Wait a minute, can you explain to me what thief of hearts means?" Lu Mingfei held Figel down and rescued the little troublemaker who was a little confused by the loss of breakfast.

"You don't understand this, do you, Junior Brother?" Figel winked at Lu Mingfei smugly. "My paparazzi... no, my journalist's first instinct tells me that people like Zero are likely to have good relationships with the opposite sex. And most of his fans in the Night Watch forum are girls."

"You were talking about paparazzi, right?" Lu Mingfei grabbed her tail and refused to let go. "What news department? It must be the gossip center!"

“Don’t worry about it.” Figel whispered in Lu Mingfei’s ear, “I’m telling you this because you’re my junior. I’ve already thought of the title for my next article!”

She snapped her fingers, pointed at Lu Mingfei in a rather immature way, and her lazy voice suddenly became serious, and she said with a bit of a queenly temperament: "Romantic girls, I will take away your ignorant spring hearts - Zero, come on!"

Lu Mingfei's fist hardened, and he couldn't help but hit Figel on the head. There was a bang, and the first feeling was that it was very hard.

Figel turned his head to look at him: "Junior brother, are you trying to commit a crime?"

Lu Mingfei said: "No, I just want to find something to knock on."

Then Figel sat down with a thud, stretched out his hands to hug Lu Mingfei's thighs, and said hypocritically, "I was beaten and can't get up. If I don't treat you for three days... No, it's the kind that won't heal after five days of lunch."

Lu Mingfei felt his fist harden again.

……

At the flag-raising ceremony after the morning reading class, everyone, whether students from Shilan or the preparatory class, was extremely excited because Lucrecia was announcing the rules of the free day on the podium, which were - there were no rules.

All the contestants, whether in teams or solo, the last person standing is the winner. If someone stands, someone falls. Putting aside the question of why someone falls in a water gun battle, it must be said that this is indeed quite free.

Freedom Day was scheduled for tomorrow, and it was said that the weather would be a little hotter tomorrow. However, Lu Mingfei looked around and felt that it didn't matter whether it was cold or not. Anyway, water guns alone would not be able to reduce the fiery hearts of these adolescent boys.

It is said that the school leaders of Shilan are quite satisfied with this activity. The preparatory class personally took Shilan students to play, and they were very happy. Little do they know that many people spend money to join the preparatory class just for a network of connections.

However, unlike Shilan’s overly excited students, the students in the preparatory class were also excited, but they also understood that the victory condition of only the last person standing was aimed at them.

Although it seems a bit inappropriate to say this, the students of Shilan joining in are just the miscellaneous soldiers they need to clear before the BOSS is launched. If they can't even defeat these Shilan students, then they will not be qualified to participate in the final battle.

Lu Mingfei was too lazy to think about these things. He just listened to Su Xiaoqiang's confident speech. Then he saw Lucrecia winking at him before coming down, which made some of the boys around him feel good about themselves and narcissistic.

Then, he saw Lucrecia glance in the direction of Chu Yuzhen, who also raised her head and stared at her silently. For some reason, Lu Mingfei seemed to see a spark between the two of them.
