Chapter 27: Chen Feng’s Secret

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Just as Leng Ruzhi was feeling puzzled, she saw Chen Feng take out a key from his pocket and opened the library’s door. Then, he quietly pushed the door open and entered the library.

Leng Ruzhi was stunned to see that.

Chen Feng actually had the key to the library?

“What is going on?” she wondered.

“Could it be that he secretly made a key without letting the school know?”

Leng Ruzhi’s heart was about to jump out of her throat.

She was very nervous and hesitant when she saw the “crime scene”.

She did not know what to do.

She wondered if she should turn him in.

Or she should stop him?

Or maybe, there was a third option that she should pick.

As she was thinking, Leng Ruzhi was stunned when she saw what happened next.

Li Qiang walked out of the dormitory and walked into the library.

Leng Ruzhi was rendered speechless.

This time, she was completely dumbfounded.

Logically speaking, the library was already closed, so it was impossible for others to head in this direction.

However, Li Qiang pushed the door open very naturally. There were only two possibilities for that.

One was that he already knew the library was unlocked.

Another possibility was that, just like her, Li Qiang had also seen Chen Feng enter the library.

For a moment, Leng Ruzhi’s thoughts ran wild.

This matter became much more complex. She no longer knew what to do.

She hesitated at the door for a long time. After about two hours, Li Qiang walked out of the library and returned to his dormitory.

As for Chen Feng, he had yet to come out.

At this moment, Leng Ruzhi had completely forgotten about trying to make things clear with Li Qiang.

From her point of view, Chen Feng secretly opening the door to the library was a much more serious issue.

She wanted to go in and ask Chen Feng about it.

However, she was also afraid that Chen Feng had really taken the initiative to create that key behind the school’s back. If that was the case, she would not know what to say.

Chen Feng would probably not be able to take it if she exposed his misdeed like that.

Leng Ruzhi paced the corner in a panic, not daring to enter the library or leave.

Just like that, the night passed.

When the school bell rang in the morning, Leng Ruzhi’s eyelids had already started to droop.

As for Chen Feng, he had yet to come out.

At this moment, a figure walked over. When she caught sight of that, Leng Ruzhi was startled awake, and her sleepiness subsided.

It was the administrator, Mr. Huang!

Now, there was only one thought in Leng Ruzhi’s mind.

“It’s over. Chen Feng will be caught red-handed!”

Subconsciously, Leng Ruzhi was on Chen Feng’s side. However, she did not notice it at all.

Just as she was praying for Chen Feng to escape, she saw Chen Feng walk out of the library. He lifted his face to the morning sun and pushed himself upright, arching his back in a stretch.

Leng Ruzhi was rendered speechless.

“How can you behave so brazenly?”

“Are you crazy?” she thought.

However, in the next moment, an even more unbelievable scene appeared.

Mr. Huang hummed a tune and slowly walked up to Chen Feng. He greeted the latter very kindly.

“Morning, Chen.”

Chen Feng bowed slightly in response.

“Good morning, Mr. Huang!”

Leng Ruzhi was rendered speechless.

She could no longer understand what was happening.

This matter exceeded her comprehension.

“Chen, your body will definitely not be able to take it if you keep staying up late to study.”

“Don’t do this again,” advised Mr. Huang.

However, Chen Feng smiled and shook his head.

“A person with no background like me isn’t able to do anything else except for trying my hardest in whatever I do.”

Hearing that, Mr. Huang seemed to feel pity and admiration for Chen Feng.

He patted Chen Feng’s shoulder and said, “You’re a good child. I’ll be relieved if my son is as sensible as you.”

“Next time, I’ll bring you a pot of good tea. If you’re sleepy at night, drink a few mouthfuls of the tea. It’ll refresh your mind.”

“Thank you, Mr. Huang!” said Chen Feng.

After the two of them chatted for a while, Mr. Huang entered the library and prepared to start his day as administrator.

As for Chen Feng, he walked toward the support faculty’s teaching area. He had no intention of returning to his dormitory to sleep.

After Chen Feng left, Leng Ruzhi pondered for a moment before arriving at the library.

“Leng Ruzhi? You came to the library to read so early?”

“The combat faculty don’t have classes today?”

When Mr. Huang saw Leng Ruzhi there, he seemed even more surprised than when he saw Chen Feng staying for the entire night.

Leng Ruzhi made up a lie.

“I just woke up and was about to go for breakfast when I happened to see Chen Feng coming out of the library. I was a little curious and wanted to ask you what’s going on.”

Leng Ruzhi’s lie was watertight.

However, Mr. Huang could tell at a glance that she was lying.

“She looks so exhausted, how can it be she has just woken up?” he thought.

He deduced that she probably did not sleep a wink all night.

After thinking for a while, Mr. Huang understood what happened.

It seemed that Leng Ruzhi had waited outside for the entire night.

However, Mr. Huang did not expose her. Instead, he chose to resolve her doubt.

“This isn’t anything that needs to be kept a secret…”

“Chen Feng has a key to the library. The principal personally gave it to him.”

“Principal Wang told me about this, so it can’t be fake,” he said.

Upon hearing this, Leng Ruzhi first opened her mouth, then a trace of shame appeared on her face.

It turned out that Chen Feng had been allowed to enter the library by the principal.

As for her, she had judged a gentleman’s character with her own narrow-mindedness. She thought that Chen Feng had created a key and sneaked into the library.

She should not have done that.

Thinking of this, Leng Ruzhi bid farewell to Mr. Huang. She had mixed feelings as she prepared to go to the combat faculty for class.

But at this moment.

Li Qiang walked out of the dormitory again.

The moment she saw Li Qiang, Leng Ruzhi suddenly remembered.

After closing the library last night, Li Qiang also studied in the library for two hours.

Chen Feng had the key given to him by the principal for special reasons. What was going on with Li Qiang?

At that thought, Leng Ruzhi narrowed her eyes.

She knew that Chen Feng and Li Qiang were not friends.

In fact, Li Qiang seemed to be somewhat hostile toward Chen Feng.

In other words, Chen Feng would never willingly bring Li Qiang into the library with his key.

“Could it be…”

“Could it be that Li Qiang used violence to threaten Chen Feng?”

The more Leng Ruzhi thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible!

She had a dark expression.

Yesterday, she thought that Li Qiang had turned over a new leaf. She did not expect him to bully his classmates behind her back.

It was all an act!

At that moment, Leng Ruzhi was already thinking about how to uphold justice for Chen Feng.

Two hours ago.

In the mystic mine.

At the periphery of the mine.

A burly man with a beard walked out while yawning.

He muttered, “Zhang, the boss told me to switch shifts with you. You can go and rest.”

“F*ck, after this, I can have six months of fun.”

However, the usual response did not appear.

There was no sound from Zhang. Only then did the burley man find that something was amiss.

Where was Zhang?

Before he could react, suddenly the scene in front of him changed.

The burly man saw a masked face suddenly appear in front of him, as well as… the path that the burly man had come from.

“When did this person appear in front of me?”

This was the burly man’s subconscious thought.

However, as his body leaned back uncontrollably, the burly man saw the ceiling of the mine.

There was a thud.

His chest and the back of his head fell to the ground at the same time. He was barely conscious, and he felt pain crash through his body.

At this moment, before the burly man fell unconscious, he had another thought.

“So this isn’t in front of me, but behind me…”

That was because the burly man’s head was twisted over by Chen Feng.

Ignoring the corpse before him, Chen Feng turned to look into the depths of the mine.

“There are still two of them who have combat strength left!”
