Chapter 68: To Know or not to Know (1)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
Yan Chen sat in his seat, somewhat bored. When he saw Mo Fei walk in, he immediately showed a bright smile.
“Mo Fei, Prince Yu’s birthday is near, do you know?” Yan Chen’s eye blinked, he looked at Mo Fei and asked.
“Yes, how can I not know? He’s my husband!” said Mo Fei naturally.
“When did you know?” asked Yan Chen.
“I’ve known it for a long time,” Mo Fei said with a bit shy smile.
Mo Fei thought to himself, “When did I know? Only yesterday! If Lou Yu didn’t tell me, how would I know?”
Well, speaking of which, he really didn’t know much about Lou Yu. Mo Fei suddenly felt a little guilty, but thinking of Prince Yu’s snoring everyday which disturbed him from having a sound sleep, Mo Fei’s guilt immediately vanished completely.
Yan Chen held his chin and asked, “What present are you gonna buy him?”
“This, this is…a secret.” said Mo Fei mysteriously.
Yan Chen said excitedly, “It must be something special, right?”
“Of course, it should be special.” said Mo Fei proudly. Of course his present should be ‘special’.
“Mo Fei, you must know about Prince Yu very much, right?” asked Yan Chen.
Mo Fei nodded and said, “Sure, sure, how would not know about him? I even know he likes snoring and snores loudest when he sleeps on his side!”
Yan Chen widened his eyes, “What? Prince Yu snores? Chenchen doesn’t like snoring. He said I snore, like a piggy.”
Mo Fei, “…”
“Coming, coming.” Someone cried, and then a slovenly old man walked toward the cla.s.sroom.
Yan Chen frowned. “It’s strange! The old man comes so early today!”
Mo Fei sighed in his heart. This old man should aim at me. I have always stayed in low key. Why would I get eyed on! I am really down on my luck this year!
Once the old man stood before the teacher’s desk, the whole room fell silent.
Perhaps he was secretly feeling that the old man, though disagreeable, had some real authority and was difficult to tackle with.
“Mo Fei! Have you finished what I asked you to write?” The old man asked Mo Fei wickedly.
“It’s all done.” “He stood up, trembling.
The old man carelessly looked at the thing that Mo Fei pa.s.sed over, said angrily, “Hum, look at what you wrote. So ugly.”
Mo Fei forced a smile, thinking, “I’ve already written it all. Why are you still so picky?”
“Mo Fei, I heard that you got a good beat yesterday, with a b.l.o.o.d.y nose and swollen face, is that true?” gloated the old man.
Mo Fei’s face went all red, “I am not powerful enough, so, yeah, I got a good beat, like you said.”
The old man looked at Mo Fei, “I can tell you really have an annoying face the first time I saw you. And your const.i.tution is also quite suitable to take a beating! Although you got such a good beating that even your mother couldn’t recognize you, and only after a night’s rest, you are all good.
Mo Fei then said awkwardly, “Teacher, you must be kidding.” This G.o.dd.a.m.n old man is so wicked!
After staring at Mo Fei for a while, the old man suddenly asked, “Mo Fei, do you know who invented the Phantom Steps at the age of 12?”
Mo Fei’s eyes fast rolling, heart pounding, d.a.m.n it, why would this old man always ask him something beyond his knowledge? Inventing the Phantom Steps at the age of 12? Only G.o.d would care who it is!
”Inventing the Phantom Steps at the age of 12? That person should be a super genius! Is it you, my teacher, if I may guess?” Asked Mo Fei carefully. He remembered that Prince Yu told him this E Zuishuai (literally means “I am the most handsome man.” in English) is a cultivation genius.
When everyone in the cla.s.sroom heard Mo Fei’s answer, they all looked at him at the same time, with dense astonishment in their eyes.
Mo Fei felt kind of uncomfortable and uneasy under so many pair of eyes. d.a.m.n it! Did I say something improper again? Why are those people all staring at me like that? Don’t look at me like that? I am thin-skinned. I would be shy!
Mo Fei then turned to Yan Chen, while Yan Chen dropped his jaws, eyes wide open, with only misbelief on his chubby face.
That bad old man smiled, saying gloomily, “I admit that I am the same level genius as Prince Yu, but I didn’t invent the Phantom Steps, but Prince Yu.”
His words gave Mo Fei a headache. What the h.e.l.l! Last time he answered that it was Prince Yu and it turned out it wasn’t him, while this he guessed it was someone else, but it happened to Lou Yu the a.s.shole! Why is he so unlucky every time?
“So it turned out to be Prince Yu!” said Mo Fei awkwardly.
The old man then looked at Mo Fei with a fake smile, “Mo Fei, now you are Prince Yu’s wife, so you better know more about him, otherwise, you know…hehe.”
Mo Fei, “…”
