Chapter 209: I’m Afraid They’ll Misunderstand! (Additional Chapter for the Benefactor Zhisiziwu sleep)
Because Mei Fang had accumulated too much debt over the winter break, even with Xia Yuan and Lin You Xi lending him their homework to copy, he still had to rely on his own efforts to finish his winter break assignments. He needed one pen, one lamp, one night, and a miracle.
On this night, Mei Fang only slept for four hours. Xia Yuan and Lin You Xi knew about this, so they deliberately let him sleep longer until it was almost time to leave before waking him up.
Xia Yuan slapped Mei Fang’s face but got no response, then turned to look at Lin You Xi. Lin You Xi immediately understood and reached into Mei Fang’s blanket.
Mei Fang immediately jumped up.
“Damn, you froze me!”
“Stop whining, stop whining. We have to register for school today, hurry up.”
Mei Fang yawned while rubbing his head.
“Is registration tomorrow afternoon?”
“Yes, didn’t you check the schedule?”
While Xia Yuan was speaking, Lin You Xi promptly handed Mei Fang his clothes.
“Ah… thank you.”
Mei Fang had just put on half of his clothes when he suddenly felt drowsy again.
Xia Yuan pinched Mei Fang’s cheeks to wake him up, and Lin You Xi immediately came over to help Mei Fang get dressed.
“Do you need help putting on your clothes?”
“You Xi! Don’t spoil him too much!”
“But if we keep waiting like this, all three of us will be late,” Lin You Xi said with a pout. “Look how sleepy he is.”
“It’s his own fault…”
Seeing Mei Fang looking drowsy, Xia Yuan couldn’t help but feel angry. “I told him to do his homework properly, but he just kept sleeping and playing games.”
While scolding him, Xia Yuan also started helping Mei Fang put on his clothes.
The two of them treated Mei Fang as if he were five years old or younger, indulging in the act of dressing him up.
“Look at yourself… So lazy. This is only happening because Aunt Liang isn’t here. When she comes back tomorrow, you’ll see what happens.”
Xia Yuan patiently zipped up Mei Fang’s jacket and adjusted his collar, then held his face and squeezed it into a pouty expression.
Uh…
Xia Yuan pressed her lips together and kissed him lightly, then swallowed hard.
It’s been four whole days since our last secret training session.
No, no… Didn’t we agree to stop that?
If You Xi sees this, she’ll definitely hate me…
Xia Yuan swallowed hard, suppressing her desire to be intimate with Mei Fang, then helped push him along with Lin You Xi.
After eating breakfast made by Lin You Xi, Mei Fang became slightly more alert. The three of them walked to school together. Although it was the start of a new semester, there were noticeably fewer parents picking up students than usual.
Students walked in small groups, all wearing identical winter uniforms. These jackets looked thin but were surprisingly warm and windproof, with inner linings to ensure thickness. However, wearing them made them appear somewhat bulky.
As Mei Fang, Xia Yuan, and Lin You Xi walked down Jiangcheng No. 1 High School’s road, they were frequently noticed by other students. Initially feeling awkward, they soon got used to it.
There was no doubt that “Plain Face” had gained significant traction after the winter break, expanding its influence.
It had become one of the few middle school creations to surpass 100,000 views on C Station.
The concept of middle school creation was quite eye-catching, especially since Mei Fang and Xia Yuan performed a duet of love songs. With their good looks, it sparked considerable discussion among C Station users.
[This is youth!]
[I’m jealous, I regret not studying harder in high school.]
[Youth is beautiful!]
[Together! Together!]
[This song reminds me of my first love.]
[I’ll buy your album for sure.]
[Shut up! Take my money!]
Such regulated comments gradually formed a culture on C Station.
Of course, relying solely on netizens’ discoveries was a bit slow. During the operation of C Station, Mei Fang also accelerated the formation of various comment cultures by pushing interesting comments from his past knowledge across different comment sections.
Due to stricter membership requirements compared to his previous Bilibili, the development speed of C Station was slightly slower than Mei Fang’s prediction. However, some unknown small and medium-sized companies had already approached him for investment.
Rather than giving away some company shares to these investors, Mei Fang hoped that the Penguin Empire would eventually take over his C Station territory.
Thanks to the revenue from games, the financial pressure on C Station had eased. However, the earning speed of “Flappy Bird” had slowed down significantly. To present better data on the surface, Mei Fang needed to quickly discover more works that hadn’t yet gained fame.
It’s been twelve years…
Mei Fang naturally remembered the Bitcoin incident. He regularly checked his Bitcoin key to confirm that his Bitcoins were still in his account.
In Mei Fang’s memory, Bitcoin would surge in 2013, reaching close to $1,200 per coin.
Of course, compared to the peak of $70,000, this was insignificant. But that was in 2021, and a decade was too long a cycle. This made Mei Fang feel that Bitcoin was somewhat useless.
Without an urgent need, he would mainly rely on making games to save money…
Mei Fang’s money was currently in the bank, 10 million Tianchao currency, with annual interest on large deposits amounting to 3 million.
He naturally wanted to use higher-level financial management tools like stocks, but he wasn’t familiar with the stock market in his previous life and only knew that buying Maotai and Ningde seemed safe.
Moreover, due to being a minor, trading stocks seemed to be restricted. At that time, he might need to use Sister Yueyue as a tool, who was trained in economics and had obtained a CPA certificate. She could help manage his finances.
After paying all the relevant fees for registration, Mei Fang separated from the two little ones and returned to his seat in Class 3.
When he entered, he saw Xiang Bingbing and Wan Chaoxiong busily writing on their desks.
Seeing Mei Fang arrive, they stretched out their hands towards him like saviors:
“Mei Fang, did you finish the Tianli Math paper? Can I copy it?”
Xiang Bingbing expressed dissatisfaction to Wan Chaoxiong, “I was the first to reach out, I should copy it first!”
“It’s the same whether we split it; there are so many papers.”
“Let’s ask Mei Fang if he finished it first.”
“I finished it, how could I not?”
Mei Fang shook his head as he put down his backpack, “How can you two still have the nerve to say you’re from Jiangcheng No. 1 High School? You can’t even finish your homework over the winter break, and now you want to copy others’. That’s embarrassing.”
Xiang Bingbing said with a bitter face, “That homework was added later by Mr. Yuan, many people weren’t informed and left. I was in a rush to go home and didn’t know about it…”
Wan Chaoxiong nodded, “Who isn’t in the same situation? I was also an orphan at home, playing computer games, and wouldn’t make friends at school either.”
“Didn’t anyone in your class notify you? No, you didn’t even ask.”
“There were, but my house doesn’t have a computer, I was busy during the Spring Festival and barely played QQ…”
Xiang Bingbing pushed her snake skin bag toward Mei Fang, “Please eat chestnuts! Hurry up and let me copy, please.”
“Alright, alright…”
Mei Fang took out his math paper from his backpack. Xiang Bingbing and Wan Chaoxiong both rushed over to grab it. As expected, Wan Chaoxiong was completely unable to get it back, being pushed aside by Xiang Bingbing.
“Phew…”
Wan Chaoxiong, who failed to get the paper, didn’t feel discouraged. Instead, he asked Mei Fang if he had done the English paper.
“You didn’t even do the English paper assigned by the homeroom teacher?”
“I just filled in A, B, C, D randomly. If Teacher Dong finds out, he’ll definitely peel my skin off. Please save me, considering all the video edits I’ve done for you.”
“Alright, alright… I’ll naturally give it to you…”
“Great! Brother Mei, you’re my hero today!”
“Not really a hero…”
Hearing that Mei Fang had finished his winter break homework, classmates began flattering him. Wang Jiayu, a writer of CP novels, was the most exaggerated.
“If you let me copy the physics, I’ll call you dad!”
“Just take it, don’t be so formal…”
Wang Jiayu, after getting something, continued to boast, “Spread the word, calling Brother Mei ‘dad’ lets you copy his homework!”
Mei Fang, having finished his homework, was constantly called ‘dad’ by male classmates and lent his homework.
At this moment, the one who had “completed” his homework was hailed as a hero, even girls came to join in the fun.
However, although Mei Fang was willing to lend out his homework, he refused their invitations to be called ‘dad’.
That’s reserved for You Xi, Yuan Yuan, and our future children. I’m afraid they’ll misunderstand!
Done! Will update tomorrow.
