Chapter 172: Chapter 172: Saving Earth

Leaving the alley, Chen Feng walked along the roadside for a while.

He had not gone far when he suddenly saw a familiar figure straight ahead.

That figure was none other than Wang Hao, who always treated him as a leader.

However, Wang Hao was not his usual lively self at this time. He walked slowly along the roadside, his back appearing desolate and lonely.

Chen Feng had not expected to run into Wang Hao here. He quickened his pace and called out as he walked, "Haozi."

"Hmm?" Wang Hao was walking along the road when he suddenly heard someone calling him. He quickly turned around and looked back, just in time to see Chen Feng not far behind him.

Wang Hao stopped dead in his tracks, a look of surprise on his face, and exclaimed, "Boss? What are you doing here?"

"I’m taking care of some business. What about you?" Chen Feng said with a smile.

"Me... Ah, let’s not talk about it!" Wang Hao sighed, his face showing his disappointment.

"What’s wrong?" Chen Feng asked, seeing this.

"I had a fight with my family and just ran out of the house!" said Wang Hao.

"A fight? Why?" Chen Feng frowned, puzzled.

"It’s about school again. Boss, you know my family isn’t very well-off, and my grades are somewhat embarrassing. There’s no way I can get into a top university, and I don’t want to go to an ordinary one either, that would just be wasting time."

"So I want to drop out early, work to earn money and help out at home, but my parents just won’t agree. They say I’m being ridiculous and refuse to let me drop out. That’s why I had a huge argument with them and ran out of the house!" Wang Hao said with a bitter face.

"So that’s it, then. You’re really set on not going to school anymore?" Chen Feng patted Wang Hao’s shoulder and asked.

"Yeah, I don’t want my parents to work so hard anymore. They’ve supported me long enough. I want to make money to repay them, not waste time in school using their hard-earned money," Wang Hao nodded, his face set with determination.

It was clear that he had given this a lot of thought and had been considering it for a long time, and he was resolute.

"Since you’ve made up your mind, I won’t try to persuade you otherwise, but you should talk about this carefully with your parents. Discuss it calmly and rationally, not by arguing, as that won’t solve any problems," Chen Feng said with a smile.

"Yeah, I got it, Boss!" Wang Hao nodded.

As they walked and talked, they reached a barbecue stand without realizing it.

Since they were free anyway, they found a table to sit at, ordered some skewers and beer, and started eating and chatting.

In Coastal’s evening, sitting by the roadside, eating skewers, drinking beer, and chatting.

With a gentle breeze blowing, it was a really comfortable experience.

"Haozi, what do you plan to do now that you won’t be going to school?" Chen Feng asked after taking a sip of his beer and putting the glass down while looking at Wang Hao.

He asked because he was actually preparing to help Wang Hao.

After all, Wang Hao was the first friend he had made since coming to Coastal.

Even though he had made friends with Wang Hao as a student, Chen Feng truly cared for him as a friend and brother.

If Wang Hao was really going to quit school, then he would definitely lend a hand if he could.

"Uh... I don’t know, I haven’t thought it through. I’ll take one step at a time," Wang Hao said after taking a bite of a skewer and shaking his head.

"Then do you have any dreams? Like, what do you want to do in the future?" Chen Feng continued to ask.

"Ha ha, Boss, if you’re talking about dreams, I do have one!" Wang Hao grinned and nodded.

"Oh? Let’s hear it," Chen Feng asked with interest.

"Well, ever since I was little, I’ve had this dream of saving the Earth!" Wang Hao said seriously.

"Cough cough cough!" Chen Feng almost choked on his beer upon hearing this.

Save the Earth?

Goodness me, that’s certainly no small dream!

"Boss, did my dream scare you? Haha, I knew it. Others used to look at me like I was crazy when I told them about my dream. I’m used to it!" Wang Hao said with a laugh, his smile tinged with bitterness.

"Haozi, your dream is indeed a big one, but that’s what dreams are about, right? You have to dare to dream before you can make it come true. Otherwise, how can it be called a dream? Who knows, maybe one day you’ll actually achieve it?" Chen Feng said with a smile.

Chen Feng meant it as a joke.

What Chen Feng didn’t know, however, was that this joke he made would actually become a reality in the future!

"Boss, I like the way you talk! Here’s to my dream coming true one day. Cheers!" Wang Hao said, raising his glass.

Chen Feng was about to lift his glass when his phone rang.

Without hesitation, he took out his phone and answered the call.

"The address you wanted, I’ve found it!"

The phone transmitted Bing Yue’s icy voice.

"That fast? Didn’t you say it would take seven hours?" Chen Feng was surprised to hear that.

Because Bing Yue had previously said it would take seven hours, but now, less than two hours had passed, and she had already managed it. The efficiency was shockingly quick.

However, what Chen Feng didn’t know was that Bing Yue had burned out three computers in her efforts to find the phone’s address so quickly for him.

"Everything went smoothly, so it was earlier than expected," Bing Yue said coldly.

"Bing Yue, I’m really impressed with you. Seriously, if you spoke a little more warmly and not so coldly, with your looks and figure, you would definitely get married!" Chen Feng joked with a smile.

"Do you want the address or not? If not, I’m hanging up!" Bing Yue said somewhat angrily.

"Yes, yes, of course, I want it! Text it to me," Chen Feng said hastily.

Bing Yue coldly "hummed" and hung up the phone.

Soon after, Chen Feng’s phone vibrated, receiving a text message with the address of the phone’s location.

Chen Feng glanced at the address and found it was not in Coastal but in Gangdong City.

That was quite far; if he drove from Coastal to Gangdong City, it would take at least two to three hours.

Fortunately, Bing Yue had found the address ahead of time; otherwise, there really wouldn’t have been enough time.

"Haozi, do you have anything to do tonight and tomorrow?" Chen Feng put away his phone and looked at Wang Hao with a smile.

"I can’t go home tonight. I’m planning to rough it outside for the night. Tomorrow’s Saturday, so I don’t have school," Wang Hao shook his head and said.

"Then it’s perfect. Come with me on a trip overnight!" Chen Feng said with a smile.

"A trip? For what?" Wang Hao asked, puzzled.

Chen Feng gave a mysterious smile and said,

"To save the Earth!"
