Chapter 166
Yi Feng was delighted when Huang He agreed to help, saying, “Then I’ll thank Teacher Huang in advance.”
“No need to be polite, it’s a small matter,” Huang He waved his hand and laughed.
“By the way, the tea sold by your wife is really good. I bought some the other day and gave it to my colleagues, and everyone said it tasted great,” Yi Feng said with a smile.
The dividends for Huang He were with his wife, and Yi Feng bought tea leaves every month, where the profit was considered a dividend.
Yi Feng was hinting that the monthly dividends would be paid as agreed.
Hearing this, Huang He nodded and said, “If you like it, I’ll have her send you a few more cans next time. Drinking more tea is good for your health.”
“Ha ha, then thank you very much, Teacher Huang,” Yi Feng laughed.
Yu Ting brought dishes out of the kitchen and called, “Old man, Little Feng, Xuanxuan, come and eat. The food is ready!”
“Okay, auntie, thank you for making so many dishes. They really look and smell as good as they taste!” Yi Feng stood up, glanced at the dishes full of chicken, duck, fish, and meat, and praised them.
“Ah, it’s no trouble. We’re all happy you could come over,” Yu Ting smiled.
Huang He also stood up to invite Yi Feng to eat.
Everyone sat down at the dining table, Yi Feng personally opened the wine and poured it for Huang He, and the two of them chatted over drinks.
“Ah Xuanxuan, in the future, you should learn more from Little Feng, ask him about his studies. He was the provincial top scorer in this year’s college entrance examination!” Yu Ting instructed Huang Xuanxuan.
Huang Xuanxuan first looked at Yi Feng in surprise, not expecting him to have such an achievement, but then she pouted and said, “So what if he’s the top scorer in Guangdong Province? How I study is my own business.”
Hearing this, Huang He frowned and scolded, “How can you say that, don’t you have any manners?”
“I want you to learn from Little Feng so you can improve your grades and not fail in college.”
“With your barely passing undergraduate grades, if you don’t work hard, you won’t even get a college diploma!”
Huang Xuanxuan put down her chopsticks and retorted, “My grades are my own business. You don’t have to worry about it!”
“You!” Huang He was so angry he could hardly speak.
Yi Feng could see that this girl was in her rebellious phase, and her relationship with her parents wasn’t good, likely leading to frequent conflicts.Indeed, every family has its own issues.
But he didn’t want to cause any family disputes due to his visit, so he changed the subject, “Ah, Teacher Huang, don’t be angry. I think Xuanxuan is quite smart. I saw Red Alert and StarCraft posters on the wall in the room. Does Xuanxuan also like to play computer games?”
“Eh? You, a top student, know about Red Alert and StarCraft? Yeah, those are my two favorite computer games! He he!” Huang Xuanxuan suddenly became interested when the topic switched to games.
“You, all you know is to play games, either at home or in the internet café! If you spent as much time on your studies, you could have been admitted to Tsinghua University by now!” Huang He frowned.
After being criticized, Huang Xuanxuan just pouted and remained silent, resisting silently.
“If you really like playing computer games that much, study it seriously. Maybe in the future, you could develop a game yourself,” Yi Feng laughed.
“Really?! Yeah, I’ve been thinking about developing a game myself. I recently made a StarCraft cheat, he he, it’s super fun to beat AI with cheats!” Huang Xuanxuan was animated.
“Develop? Do you know C++?” Yi Feng asked, surprised.
“Hee hee, a little, I taught myself,” Huang Xuanxuan said proudly.
Huang He was taken aback, “You learned C++ just for gaming? My goodness, daughter, I didn’t know you had such skills!”
He was pleasantly surprised, having rarely communicated with his daughter, not knowing she had a talent for programming.
C++ is a complex programming language, usually only taught at the university level.
“Humph~ Dad, there’s a lot you don’t know about me. When have you ever asked?” Huang Xuanxuan pouted, feeling wronged.
Huang He felt a twinge of guilt, realizing he had focused too much on his daughter’s academic performance and neglected proper communication.
Seeing this, Yi Feng said, “I told you Xuanxuan is extraordinary. She will definitely be successful in the future.”
Huang Xuanxuan, feeling recognized and praised, blushed and smiled happily.
“Xuanxuan, I’ll send you a game development document later. If you can create a game framework based on it, you can come work part-time at my company in the future. You’ll be able to earn your own tuition and living expenses,” Yi Feng smiled.
This offer, made in front of Huang He, was to show his sincerity, hoping to further solidify their relationship beyond mere business interests.
“Uh, Little Feng, she can develop a game with her level of skill?” Huang He was skeptical, doubting his daughter’s ability to develop a game having only recently started learning.
“Ah, Teacher Huang, how will we know if we don’t try? It’s also an opportunity for Xuanxuan to show what she can do. As long as she wants to do it, she definitely can,” Yi Feng encouraged.
“Really? I can develop a game framework based on your document?” Huang Xuanxuan asked, excited.
“Really. Do you want to do it?” Yi Feng smiled.
“Of course! Of course, I do!” Huang Xuanxuan was thrilled, seeing it as a great learning opportunity. If she could follow his method, she might understand the development process.
She loved games and wanted to develop her own, having learned various skills, including graphic design, but her knowledge was scattered. She needed clear direction.
Huang He, seeing his daughter so interested in games and Yi Feng willing to teach and offer a part-time job, was very grateful.
He owed Yi Feng a big favor. Raising his glass, he said, “Little Feng, thank you so much! Let’s drink to that!”
“Ah, Teacher Huang, it’s my pleasure to help. Besides, my company will eventually enter the gaming industry. With computers becoming more common, computer games will surely be a huge market,” Yi Feng laughed.
Huang He was surprised by Yi Feng’s foresight and admired him even more.
Being associated with such a young man was his good fortune.
“Alright, let’s drink to that.” Huang He poured wine for Yi Feng and continued to raise his glass.
Huang Xuanxuan straightened her studded leather jacket, raised her juice glass, and said, “Brother Feng, I toast you too!”
In her heart, she felt she had finally met someone who understood her, and her positive feelings for Yi Feng grew.
Everyone raised their glasses, creating a lively atmosphere.
With Yi Feng’s humorous conversation, there were no more arguments between father and daughter during the meal. Instead, laughter filled the air, creating a harmonious scene.
After the meal, Yi Feng didn’t stay long and decided to leave. Huang He personally escorted him downstairs.
“Little Feng, to be honest, I really have to thank you today,” Huang He said, feeling grateful for the pleasant meal with his daughter, which hadn’t happened in a long time.
Despite being a teacher for many years, he realized he had neglected his daughter’s needs.
This experience taught him the importance of proper communication and encouragement in their relationship.
Yi Feng knew what he was thankful for and replied, “It’s okay, no need to thank me. Teacher, I’ll be going now. You should go rest. Sorry for the trouble today.”
“If you say that, I won’t be happy. You should come over more often. I’d be delighted!” Huang He feigned anger.
“Yes, yes, I’ll definitely visit again. Goodbye, Teacher.”
“Take care on your way home.”
Watching Yi Feng leave, Huang He was filled with admiration for the young man’s maturity and insight. A young person with such potential was sure to achieve great things.
Who wouldn’t love such a young man?
If only he could be his son-in-law. But, obviously, Xuanxuan wasn’t a match for someone like him.
He wondered if Yi Feng was dating anyone. If not, there might still be a chance.
