The demon master was beaten up

Chapter 173 Overnight Stay in Yufeng Village

The ingredients sent by the Lu family were truly diverse and comprehensive. As the chefs plated each delicious dish, each one visually appealing and fragrant, and delivered it to each student, the previously quiet campus erupted in excitement.

The children's eyes widened, their faces filled with surprise, they couldn't believe what they were seeing. Some were even so excited that they danced with joy, shouting, "Wow, we can actually eat something so delicious today!" The whole scene was extremely lively, and laughter echoed in every corner of the campus...

The dishes here were dazzling, many of them delicacies they had never seen or heard of before. The alluring abalone and braised pork belly were fatty but not greasy, tender and juicy; the golden and crispy prawns in tomato sauce were sweet and sour, mouth-watering; the fragrant clam stewed eggs were smooth and delicate, melting in the mouth; and the steaming clear-braised lamb, the broth was delicious and nourishing.

The children were a little reserved at first, but when they saw the older brothers and sisters eating without any hesitation, they gradually relaxed and began to eat happily.

The chef prepared the dishes to cater to the children's tastes, making them very tasty. Principal Zeng felt deeply moved as he watched the children wolfing down their food.

These children from impoverished families were filled with endless gratitude. They brought out their own handmade gifts, exquisite handicrafts ranging from delicate mats woven from tough mountain bamboo to delicately sewn sachets of fragrant mugwort. Each gift embodied the children's sincere thoughts and hard work.

Lu Wenjie felt a pang of sadness as he gazed at the unimaginably shabby school before him. He noticed several children were barefoot or wearing worn-out shoes that clearly didn't fit. He hurried over, kindly asking each child about their foot size. He quickly pulled out his phone and called his assistant: "Hello, Xiao Zhang, hurry up and get some shoes. We need 30 pairs of size 33s and 66 pairs of size 35s. Remember, we need shoes that are suitable for fall as well as warm for winter! Also, get 96 jackets suitable for elementary school students. Yes, that's right! Elementary school sizes! Make sure they're delivered to Yufeng Mountain tomorrow! As for school supplies, you don't need them; Times Group has already delivered them!" After hanging up, Lu Wenjie looked at the children's innocent smiles and silently resolved to do his utmost to help improve their living and learning conditions.

The student union members put a lot of effort into this special evening, meticulously preparing unique and thoughtful gifts. Some students displayed extraordinary musical talent, expertly playing various instruments like guitar and piano, their melodious notes dancing through the air like spirits. Others captivated the audience with their graceful and elegant dance moves, like dancing fairies descending to earth. Still others chose to share warmth and joy with lively and engaging stories, recounting each captivating plot with such passion and emotion that the audience was completely captivated.

As night fell, this beautiful and unforgettable evening slowly came to a close. The student union members, filled with joy, prepared to follow Bai Nini to Yufeng Village for a night's stay. Just then, the kind and amiable Principal Zeng appeared, holding several handmade cedar torches. The torches exuded a faint cedar fragrance, gleaming softly in the darkness.

These student union members, most of whom came from bustling cities, were incredibly curious and excited about the ancient, traditional cedar torches. Some, eyes wide open, curiously watched the dancing flames of the burning torches. Others cautiously reached out to touch the torches, feeling the slightly warm temperature. Still others couldn't help but wave their torches, their laughter echoing through the night air.

After a difficult trek, they finally surmounted the towering mountain and, after enduring countless hardships, arrived at the peaceful and tranquil Yufeng Village. Night had already fallen, and moonlight streamed down the landscape, but Yufeng Village remained shrouded in darkness. The village still lacked electricity, and living conditions were difficult.

Just beside the road at the entrance of the village, the village chief and several enthusiastic villagers had been waiting here for a long time, holding lanterns.

When he saw Liu Dandan, Mo Xing and others, the village chief hurried forward with a simple and apologetic smile on his face: "I'm so sorry, everyone. Our village doesn't have electricity yet. But the government has already started installing wires, and we estimate that we should have electricity by the end of this year. Everyone, please stay here tonight. Please forgive us for any inconvenience!" As he said that, the village chief bowed deeply to express his gratitude to everyone for coming.

Afterwards, Liu Dandan and Mo Xing were arranged to live in Bai Nini's home, and the rest were properly assigned by the village chief to stay in various villagers' homes.

However, at this moment, Mo Yu suddenly said, "Nini's house still has several empty rooms. In this case, why not let me live there too, so as not to bother other villagers."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Yi beside him immediately agreed: "Good idea! Then Brother Mo Yu and I can live in the same room!"

Hearing this, Lu Wenjie, who had been standing by in silence, suddenly became gloomy, thinking to himself: What should I do? No, I have to keep an eye on these two people for Qin Nuo no matter what, and I must not let them hang around in front of Bai Nini!

Then, Lu Wenjie stretched out his right hand in annoyance, grabbed his slightly messy hair fiercely, and muttered: "Hey, you all know that I am a born social phobia patient. It is harder than climbing to the sky for me to live in those complete strangers' homes! No, no, absolutely not! I must live in Nini's house!" As he spoke, he shook his head vigorously, as if he wanted to root this idea deeply in his mind.

Hearing this, Mo Xing on the side immediately widened her eyes and retorted bluntly: "Oh, you are socially anxious? You still have the nerve to say that you are socially anxious? Look at how carefree and heartless you are usually. You are really thick-skinned!" After saying that, she deliberately curled her lips with a look of disdain.
