My Extraordinary Achievement Chapter 147 - Turn Off The High Beans

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Meng Fan was very satisfied with making 300,000 HXB in just three days. He couldn't compare to the prodigies in the industry, but it was very good for a regular practitioner in the industry.

Of course, based on Meng Fan's drawing skills, this 300,000 was not enough. In fact, the sheer quantity even made it a bit shameful.

But in any case, he was happy. As he dwelled in a state of bliss, his stomach began to rumble. He looked at the time; it was 6:00 pm. It was indeed time for dinner.

He called Da Qiang and the others, looking to treat him to a good meal, but he didn't expect they were all out already. After asking, he realized today was a Friday, and all three of them had gone to hang out with their girlfriends.

This made him very envious!

Suddenly he remembered… He gave Wu Tong a call to ask if she had eaten. Her response was curt, "I have".

Followed by, "But I can eat more." She said as she smiled.

Ten minutes later, the two met outside the school gates and went to a restaurant inside a mall.

"Have you been busy lately?"

Wu Tong paused for a moment after eating. She watched Meng Fan scarf down his food and gulp at a bottle of fruit soda and asked,

"It's been pretty busy lately. I received some commissions for hand-drawn posters, which I just finished before I called you." Meng Fan subtly slowed down his eating speed. He had a peculiar look on his face. "I also made a lot of money."

"Aren't you serializing your manga right now? Why are you also doing poster commissions?"

Wu Tong had seen Meng Fan's manga. Although she did not study manga, she knew the difficulties involved in creating one. Even if he was just adapting it, the process still required a long time. She also knew he had been serializing two series at once, both with frequent updates. She couldn't help but be curious. "You're serializing two manga series, and you're still taking hand drawing commissions; how fast is your drawing speed?"

"It's alright. I can finish both manga updates in three days. I gotta do something with the rest of my time off." Meng Fan was being modest but not at the point of deception. It was too excessive to say he could finish four chapters in one day.

"You're so busy; do you have enough time?"

"I'm just trying to be the best version of myself!"

"Should I be encouraging you at this time?"

"Hahaha, say anything you want!"

During their lighthearted conversation, the awkward atmosphere during his confession the other day was slowly fading away.

After eating, Meng Fan suggested seeing a movie, and Wu Tong didn't hesitate before agreeing.

There was no point eating at the mall if they weren't going to watch a movie. The food here was not as good as the waterfront restaurant near the school.

After the movie, the two left the shopping center but did not hail a cab. They walked back together, enjoying the night breeze.

In November, Hangzhou's evenings were getting cooler. Meng Fan's specially prepared jacket had come in handy. Even if his body fat percentage had decreased, his body had strengthened a lot, so he didn't need a jacket.

Meng Fan's jacket was quite big for Wu Tong, who was around 170 cm or so. It looked like a coat on her. It was slightly bloated, but to Meng Fan, it was almost too cute!

The two chatted. The wind carried away their voices but not the content… Either way, the atmosphere was good. As they got closer to the school, however, it was broken.

There was a car waiting at the roundabout. The car didn't have its blinkers on, but it did blast its high beams.

Meng Fan saw two people appear from another direction. One of them approached the car. That person knocked on the window and asked the driver to turn off his high beams.

The window rolled down and a rather loud voice was heard. "That's none of your business?"

"I'm asking you to turn off your high beams!"

"Did I say it was your business?"

The two bickered like this for a while. Then, Meng Fan and Wu Tong saw the guy outside reach into the car and pulled the person out and started to beat him up.

"Do you not understand what I'm saying? Turn it off!"

Outside the car, the guy who didn't look very strong but seemed to have a good grip screamed once more, and after seeing the high beams turn off, he left with his friend next to him.

When they passed Meng Fan and Wu Tong, they still gave them a hard time. Glaring at Meng Fan, he warned, "What are you looking at? Even if you're big, I'd still beat you up if you did the same. Hangzhou is a civilized city; we must say no to uncivil behaviour!"

What could Meng Fan say but give him a thumbs up. "Bro you're right!"

The friend next to him quickly pulled him away. "Did you not see his arm is thicker than your thigh? How can you compete with that…"

Wu Tong suppressed a smile.

As they passed the car, the two were stunned. The person inside the car looked to be alright; there were no bruises and swollen patches on his face. The guy who beat him up clearly had some sense of restraint. Hence, Meng Fan and Wu Tong were able to recognize the person in the car at a glance. It was Hu Ting Song!

However, Hu Ting Song had been glaring at the mirror inside the car to see if his face had been damaged, so he did not see Meng Fan and Wu Tong pass.

And when Meng Fan and Wu Tong saw it was Hu Ting Song, they looked at each other then pretended like nothing happened.

After walking a few steps, they noticed a girl walking quickly from the school gates, wearing exquisite makeup and nice clothes. She paused for a moment as she made eye contact with Meng Fan and Wu Tong. Afterwards, she greeted them with a big smile. She then hurriedly walked toward Hu Ting Song's BMW.

As if she was afraid Wu Tong wouldn't hear her, she raised her voice as she approached the car door. She then said sweetly before she turned to the other side of the car to get in, "My dear, I've kept you waiting too long."

Wu Tong did not try to avoid it but calmly and helplessly shrugged her shoulders. She knew the girl had been directing it at her since several girls in the school regarded her as a rival because of Hu Ting Song.

Meng Fan also shrugged his shoulders. When he was in the mini-marathon, he didn't see Hu Ting Song as a worthy opponent, but he didn't think that this opponent had delisted himself. It felt pretty amazing.

As they arrived at the school gates, it wasn't closing hour yet. When the doorman grandpa saw Meng Fan, he gave him another look saying, "I can't help you but, I wish you the best," making Meng Fan feel quite embarrassed. 'Uncle, last time you misunderstood the thing with Freckles, but this time…' Alright, it was his fault for having no sense of time. If he had been a few minutes late, the uncle would have been a great help.

Meng Fan didn't know if the uncle saw that the girl was different from the last one.

After dropping Wu Tong off at the girl's dormitory, Meng Fan returned to the boy's dorm as well. He didn't want to stay at the apartment tonight.

When he returned, Xing Ta Ge and Zhang Zhou Wei were both back but Chen Da Qiang was not. At this time, it would be difficult to return.

As they watched the time pass, Xing Ta Ge suddenly said, "Zhou Wei, Da Qiang is way more badass than you!"

Meng Fan expressed his agreement.

Zhang Zhou Wei quietly continued to play his game.

The time soon reached 11:55 when Meng Fan's phone rang. He saw it and paused for a moment. It was a reminder he had set up before his reincarnation—Ah Yin Bro's birthday.

Ah Yin Bro wasn't just Meng Fan's relative, nor a classmate, or a playmate that grew up with him since they were young. He was a very meaningful friend to Meng Fan.

"Ah Yin bro, happy birthday!"

After midnight, Meng Fan sent him a blessing and transferred a sum of money as a birthday gift. "This is your salary for next year. Please put your heart into designing this year. I want to see you write out the story you told me about last time!"
