Chapter 7 Chen Jinfei, the Godfather of Celestial Immortals

Huang Bo stepped down from the stage and approached Shen Fang and Liu Qianqian.

Huang Bo grinned, showing his yellow teeth, and looked at Shen Fang and Liu Qianqian: "Thanks, bro, and thanks to the pretty girl too. If it weren't for you guys, I honestly wouldn't have had the confidence to continue the performance. Now it's all good. Hey bro, I'm a student at Beijing Film Academy now. Come to Blue Lotus Bar sometime, I'll treat you to drinks then."

Shen Fang waved his hand: "It's nothing, buddy. You're so enthusiastic about taking the exam at your age; you must really love acting. You'll definitely be famous someday. Good luck, I believe in you!!!"

Liu Qianqian nodded: "No problem, keep it up, weird uncle!!!"

Huang Bo was speechless: "Little sister, could you please stop calling me weird uncle? I'm only 28. I'm still young."

Liu Qianqian pouted and looked at Huang Bo: "I'm only 14, you don't expect me to call you 'brother,' do you?"

Huang Bo: "Then you should just call me uncle. Goodness, you're only 14 and you already look like an angel! No wonder you got in through the special transfer program. And buddy, you're so handsome! How can there be such a huge difference between people? Seeing you guys makes me want to die. I wish I could go back to school and be reborn!!!"

Shen Fang smiled and said, "Brother Bo, a person's face is something they are born with, but the entertainment industry is all about acting skills. Although you're ugly, you're ugly in a very distinctive way. With that kind of distinctiveness, you're sure to become famous in the future."

Huang Bo: "...Why do I feel even more heartbroken after hearing your words??? You're ugly in a very distinctive way, but what's so distinctive about it?"

Liu Qianqian quickly raised her hand: "I know, I know."

Shen Fang patted Liu Qianqian's head: "Then Qianqian, you tell us."

"Its defining characteristic is that it's extremely ugly, right???"

Shen Fang laughed heartily: "That's right, you got it right."

Shen Fang and Liu Qianqian clapped happily.

Liu Xiaoli couldn't stand it anymore: "What are you two doing? Making fun of your future classmates like that."

Shen Fang stopped laughing, extended his hand, and smiled at Huang Bo: "Brother Bo, sorry for joking with you. My name is Shen Fang. Let's get to know each other. We'll be good buddies from now on. Feel free to contact me anytime if you need anything."

Liu Qianqian, like a little adult, extended her hand: "Hello, strange uncle, my name is Liu Qianqian. Let's get to know each other. We'll be good friends from now on. You can come to me anytime if you need anything."

Huang Bo shook hands with the two cunning men with a dark expression, but he wasn't angry because he knew they were just joking with him. Besides, he had always admired Shen Fang and Liu Tianxian and wanted to befriend them. Now that they were friends, it was fine to tease them a little; it was a sign of a good relationship.

Shen Fang took out the remaining snacks from her bag and handed them to Huang Bo: "Have some, singing was quite tiring just now."

Huang Bo took it: "Wow, Liangpin Shop, this stuff is expensive, a pack costs several tens of yuan."

Liu Qianqian smiled and said, "Liangpin Shop is owned by Brother Shen Fang's family, so eat whatever you like."

Huang Bo looked at Shen Fang in surprise. Shen Fang nodded: "Qianqian is right. If Brother Bo likes to eat, I'll get you a VIP card later so you can eat snacks for free."

Huang Bo chuckled slyly, "That would be too much trouble. Could you give me more? Liangpin Shop's snacks are really good, my girlfriend loves them, but they're too expensive. It would be great if they were free."

Shen Fang laughed loudly; "After the exam, I'll go to the store and get you and Qianqian two gift cards. Then, whenever you want to eat there, you can go and get them."

Liu Tianxian cheered, "Yay!!!"

Liu Xiaoli looked at her foodie daughter with a headache: "Qianqian, you need to eat less snacks. Girls shouldn't eat too many snacks, or they'll get fat. You're prone to gaining weight."

Liu Qianqian immediately became unhappy upon hearing this: "Ugh, I just like it!"

Shen Fang patted Tianxian's little head: "Auntie, our Liangpin Shop focuses on health, low calories, high quality, and deliciousness. The snacks inside are carefully selected from more than 20 countries, and they are not easy to make you fat. It's okay for Qianqian to eat more. Besides, Qianqian is still young. Experts have said that people need to eat more delicious food when they are young. When people are happy, they will become more and more beautiful."

Liu Qianqian looked at Liu Xiaoli triumphantly: "Did you hear that, Mom?"

Liu Xiaoli smiled at her daughter: "You heard that, darling, you just know you're greedy."

With Huang Bo joining them, the three of them became even more unrestrained and began to critique the students taking the exam on the stage, giving them scores from time to time. Time passed quickly and it was noon, when the morning exam ended.

Wang Hui led the other teachers over and looked at Shen Fang and Liu Qianqian.

"Chen Fang, Liu Qianqian, you don't need to come for the following exams. Just enroll on September 3rd. Your head teacher is Wang Jinsong, the head of our grade."

Looking at the bald head, Shen Fang had another bad feeling. Sure enough, Wang Jingsong was looking at Shen Fang with a wicked smile.

Shen Fang pointed at Wang Jingsong: "Principal, are there any other classes? That bald guy was grinning at me just now; he's definitely trying to get revenge on me!!!"

Wang Jinsong's expression changed, and he looked at Chen Fang with a smile: "What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

Wang Hui looked at Wang Jingsong and then at Shen Fang: "That's right, Teacher Wang is an authority in our school. You two are such good students, you should learn from Teacher Wang. Alright, that's enough, enjoy your last vacation."

After Wang Hui finished speaking, he led the other teachers out of the classroom. Suddenly, Wang Jinsong turned around and looked at Shen Fang meaningfully.

Shen Fang: "Damn it, that bald guy definitely wants to get revenge on me."

Liu Xiaoli looked at Shen Fang and Huang Bo.

"How about Auntie treats you to dinner? It'll be a way to celebrate."

Shen Fang nodded: "Okay, after we finish eating, let's go to the store. I'll get two VIP tickets for Qianqian and Brother Bo."

The three walked out of the school gate and came to a Mercedes-Benz W14. A middle-aged man with an unremarkable appearance and a big belly got out of the car.

The middle-aged man walked over, looking at Liu Qianqian affectionately before glancing at Huang Bo, and asked in a low voice, "How did Qianqian do on the exam? And who are these two?"

Sisi smiled and took Shen Fang's hand: "Godfather, I passed without even taking the exam. He's my brother Shen Fang, and he's been so good to me. The weird uncle next to him is my future classmate."

Liu Xiaoli smiled: "Jingfei, thank you so much for helping our Qianqian pass the entrance exam so easily this time."

Chen Jinfei smiled and extended his hand to Shen Fang and Huang Bo: "Hello, I am Xixi's godfather, Chen Jinfei."

Shen Fang narrowed his eyes as he looked at Chen Jinfei, the big shot and sugar daddy behind Liu Qianqian.

Chen Fang smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Chen."

Huang Bo quickly extended his hand and shook it.

Chen Jinfei smiled at Liu Qianqian, then looked at the two of them and said politely, "Qianqian, how about your godfather takes you to eat something delicious? Would you two like to come along too?"

Shen Fang smiled and said, "It would be impolite to refuse. Let's go."
