Seeing Feng Qi pull out the teacher’s pass of the Star City Academy, Fang Zhiyou was stunned.
In his opinion, Feng Qi was only a few years older than him. How could he have a teacher qualification certificate?
Just as he was in disbelief, the Silver Medal of Outstanding Contribution that Feng Qi took out next stunned him completely.
“Is this true?”
Looking at the disbelief on Fang Zhiyou’s face, Feng Qi nodded.
“Who do you think would joke about this?”
Hearing Feng Qi’s affirmative answer, Fang Zhiyou was completely convinced.
He had originally thought that Feng Qi was just a fantasist with wild thoughts. At this moment, he realized that he knew too little about him.
He had the Silver Medal of Outstanding Contribution at a young age and was a teacher at Star City Academy. He must have his outstanding points.
“Do you believe what I said? Now tell me what you think.”
Looking at Fang Zhiyou who was still shocked, Feng Qi asked with a smile.
[At that time, I was still wondering why you specially returned to the dormitory to get your teacher’s qualification certificate and silver medal. It turns out that you had long thought of being such a show-off. Pui! ]
Faced with Feng Qi’s invitation again, Fang Zhiyou fell silent for a moment before nodding vigorously.
“I believe in you and the Silver Medal. I’m willing to develop virtual games with you.”
“You won’t regret it,” Feng Qi promised with a smile.
“But my parents… might not agree.” Fang Zhiyou looked troubled.
“This problem is easy to solve. I’ll help you.”
“How are you going to help me?” He asked in surprise.
“You’ll know tomorrow. Eat first. Don’t waste the food.” Feng Qi grinned. Then, he lowered his head and began to dig in.
A moment later, Feng Qi, who was half-full, finished eating.
Then, he looked at the owner of the supper stall who was grilling skewers, and said, “Boss, the bill please.”
The owner of the supper stall was a slightly chubby uncle. There were only a few tufts of hair stubbornly stuck to the top of his head that seemed like they would run away from home if the wind blew, turning him from almost bald to completely bald.
He walked to the table and smiled.
“That’s a total of $3,089. I’ll just take the whole number, $3,000.”
Fang Zhiyou’s expression became very awkward at this moment. Clearly, his bank balance was not enough to pay for this meal.
Feng Qi, who had no intention of letting Fang Zhiyou treat him, stood up with a smile and prepared to pay.
At this moment, the owner of the supper stall, who was holding a QR code, noticed the Silver Medal on the dining table. His expression immediately became very interesting.
“Is this the Silver Medal of Outstanding Contribution?”
After carefully sizing it up, the owner suddenly retracted his QR code. He looked at Feng Qi, who had already taken out his phone and was about to scan the QR code, and said, “This meal is on me.”
Hearing this, Feng Qi immediately shook his head.
“Boss, don’t misunderstand. The Silver Medal isn’t for you to see. We’re not here to dine for free. We’ll pay the bill as it is.”
“This Silver Medal belongs to you?”
“Mm.” Feng Qi nodded.
“My father was once a domain warrior on the frontline. Flis greatest dream in life was to obtain a medal of honor, so I know the meaning behind this medal very well. Your contribution to humanity is worthy of me treating you to this meal. If you don’t mind coming here in the future, I can always give you a free meal.”
[Perhaps this is the significance of your struggle. Even if there are thousands of bad things in human nature, there are still good things worth keeping.]
Hearing the narrator’s answer, a warm feeling flowed through Feng Qi’s heart.
However, he still chose to reject the owner’s offer.
“Boss, since you know the meaning behind honor, you should understand that this honor is not meant to be used to pay bills. If I use this honor to cheat people of their food and drinks, it will be a stain on it. Therefore, I can’t eat this meal for free. Please charge me as you should.”
Upon hearing this, a hint of shame appeared on the owner’s face. Then, he nodded and said,
“I can accept the money, but 1 have to give you a discount. You have to give me this face. I’ll give you a…5O% discount.”
“You’re too polite. I’ll definitely give you face, but I can’t let you lose money. A 10% discount will do.”
“Let’s both compromise, 30% off.”
After a round of bargaining, Feng Qi paid for the meal at a 20% discount under the unwilling expression of the owner.
Feng Qi was a little regretful about this. He felt that he shouldn’t have let the owner of the supper stall see the silver medal.
This act of making use of his honor made him feel ashamed.
[Tsk tsk, Silver Face Medal. This thing is really useful. It’s simply necessary equipment to show off outside.]
Ignoring the narrator’s words, he turned to look at Fang Zhiyou.
“Go home. I’ll help you take care of your parents. Just wait for news from me.”
“Brother Qi, this meal was supposed to be on me,” Fang Zhiyou said awkwardly. “I’m the one eating. How can 1 really let you treat me? Besides, you don’t have a source of income. The money you have was given by your parents.” Feng Qi patted Fang Zhiyou’s shoulder and smiled.
“Thank you. I’ll definitely treat you to a meal when I have money.”
“Then you have to earn more money. When the time comes, I might bring another person that eats even more to freeload.”
“No problem.” Thinking that Feng Qi was joking, he immediately nodded solemnly.
After Fang Zhiyou left, Feng Qi hailed a taxi and left under the enthusiastic calls of the owner of the stall to come again.
When he returned to the dormitory, it was already 7:30 p.m.
Sitting at his desk, he began to flip through the latest information on the academy forum.
As he flipped through it, a post attracted his attention.
[The Freshmen Team Martial Arts Competition will begin in a month.. Everyone, how do you think the Star City Academy can rank in the eastern division this time?]
