But flight attendant Luo Qingqing had no idea that Lin Feng had suddenly acquired such an impressive ability today. Based on her understanding of Lin Feng over the past decade or so, she felt it was absolutely impossible for him not to make a single mistake on the test. Moreover, during the dictation in her own bedroom just a moment ago, hadn't Lin Feng been making a mess of it?
So, when she heard about the reward for getting everything right, flight attendant Luo Qingqing didn't take it seriously at all. Pouting her plump little lips, she readily agreed, "Sure! Little Feng, if you really can get every single word right, what's the harm in rewarding you? I'm only afraid, you won't be able to do it!"
"Sister Qingqing, hehe... you've got to keep your word, you know!"
Upon receiving Luo Qingqing's promise, Lin Feng immediately took out a pen and paper and started writing briskly.
"Eh... Little Feng, what are you doing? I haven't started dictating yet..." Luo Qingqing called out, puzzled.
"You don't need to dictate! I can write them from memory..."
Indeed, when Luo Qingqing leaned over to look at the English words and their Chinese meanings that Lin Feng was writing, and compared them one by one with the English textbook in her hand, she found that they were exactly right, down to the last detail. Even the different Chinese translations for each English word, Lin Feng had written them all out without missing a single one.
Chapter 4, Honouring a Bet
"This... Little Feng, you... you could barely write out thirty or forty words just now... How did you suddenly... suddenly able to write them all out? And it was... from memory?"
Flight attendant Luo Qingqing watched in amazement as Lin Feng continuously wrote out one hundred words in both Chinese and English without any pause. Moreover, the accuracy was truly one hundred percent, not a single word was incorrect.
"How about that? Sister Qingqing, I told you I wouldn't miss a single one."
With a snap, Lin Feng put down the pen, and with a proud look on his face, he said to Luo Qingqing, who was in disbelief. From childhood, especially during these three years in high school when Lin Feng's academic performance had been at rock bottom, he had always been forcefully pushed by Luo Qingqing to study. Today was like a battle he had turned around.
"Little Feng! What's happened to you? Suddenly had an epiphany? How come... your brain is so sharp all of a sudden, remembering everything?"
Luo Qingqing, seeing Lin Feng's perfect answers, was so delighted that she had already forgotten to be angry. Lin Feng's academic performance in junior high had been quite good; otherwise, he wouldn't have been admitted to Zhi'an Middle School. But since beginning high school, Lin Feng's grades had plummeted, to the point that he was now one of the last in his class.
For Lin Feng's academic performance, Father Lin and Lin's Mother had been very worried and angry. Even Luo Qingqing, the big sister next door, couldn't stand to watch in such anxiety, so she made him study hard whenever she had the time. But for three years, there had been no improvement; Lin Feng's grades were always bad, never getting any worse.
With less than two months until the university entrance exams, Lin Feng's academic performance was so poor that he would only be able to get into a third-tier university with high tuition fees. Flight attendant Luo Qingqing had been about to give up on monitoring Lin Feng's studies, planning to use her connections to get him into a pilot training program or something after the college entrance examination.
But today, Lin Feng gave her a huge surprise, as well as a great delight. More than a hundred vocabulary words, Lin Feng had actually managed to write them all down without missing a single one.
"Sister Qingqing, hehe... I've written down all one hundred words, what about the reward you promised?"
Looking at Luo Qingqing in her flight attendant uniform and her graceful figure, Lin Feng also discovered for the first time that this "wilful sister," "tomboy," and "female demon" he had grown up with was actually such a beautiful and attractive woman.
"Ah? What... what reward?"
Caught off guard, Luo Qingqing blushed slightly as she recalled, and then she grew somewhat embarrassed, "Little Feng, you... surely you couldn't really bear to... to hit your sister, could you?"

"So... Sister Qingqing, how can you go back on your word? You agreed so readily just a moment ago!"
The flight attendant uniform was very form-fitting, which only served to highlight Luo Qingqing's exquisite figure even more. Lin Feng said this as he looked at Luo Qingqing, who was feeling a bit guilty and avoiding his gaze, and it seemed to him that she might not be so fearsome after all.
From that moment on, the "female demon" image of Luo Qingqing in Lin Feng's mind began to blur, gradually being replaced by the image of a beautiful and attractive flight attendant with a graceful figure.
Swallowing hard, Lin Feng reminisced about the accidental pat on Luo Qingqing in her boudoir and thought to himself how great it would be to pat her again.
"Little Feng, you... humph! Do you think now that you've grown up and become more capable, you can bully your sister?"
Just like Lin Feng, Luo Qingqing had also thought of the slap on her body and immediately glared at Lin Feng with fierce eyes, pouting her pink, pursed lips as she spoke.
"Wait, wait, wait... Sister Qingqing, it's not that I want to bully you. You agreed to it yourself just now, and I didn't force you."
This time, Lin Feng had the upper hand and retorted with righteousness.
"But I..."
The reason Luo Qingqing had readily agreed to Lin Feng just now was that she never could have imagined that he would actually manage to get a hundred words right without a single mistake. But now, she regretted it and wanted to back out, although she already felt that she was in the wrong internally.
"Ah, forget it... forget it! Sister Qingqing, since you're the kind of person whose word means nothing, let it be... I've stayed up the last two nights memorizing a hundred words until I knew them inside out, only to find out... the Sister Qingqing I've always respected and admired is actually this kind of person..."
Lin Feng held back his laughter, shook his head, and pretended to let it go.
Sure enough, his provocation worked wonders. Luo Qingqing, who had a stubborn and obstinate nature, couldn't stand being provoked the most. Besides, she was already feeling guilty about the situation, so when Lin Feng prodded her, flight attendant Luo Qingqing immediately stood up straight, pouted, and said, "I'm not someone who doesn't stand by her word! I agreed to the bet; what's the big deal about a slap? I'm not going to lose face over it, come on, Little Feng..."
As she spoke, flight attendant Luo Qingqing prepared herself for whatever Lin Feng had in store.
"Anyway, Little Feng already slapped me once; what difference will another make? Humph... this brat, today I'll reward him for being able to write out a hundred words in one go, why not?"
Flight attendant Luo Qingqing consoled herself with these thoughts. But Lin Feng was completely taken aback. He had only been speaking rhetorically and hadn't actually expected Luo Qingqing to let him slap her.
But now, Luo Qingqing, who agreed to the bet, was standing right in front of Lin Feng. This put Lin Feng in a difficult position; he slowly raised his hand, wondering whether to slap her or not.
Unlike the previous slap in Luo Qingqing's boudoir, which had been an impulsive act of resistance on Lin Feng's part, making him feel startled, and then, after delivering the slap, his first instinct was to flee the scene like a guilty thief.
But this time, it was completely different; it was the girl next door, flight attendant Luo Qingqing, conceding to the bet, offering to let him slap her. Lin Feng rubbed his palms together, steeled his heart, and thought, "Since Sister Qingqing is willing to let me do it, then I won't hold back..."
Raising his hand, Lin Feng's heart pounded rapidly; but just as he was about to slap her, the bedroom door was suddenly opened again, and Lin's Mother Zhang Guizhu, who had just returned home from work and shopping, called out, "You little rascal! Mom's back, and today I bought you some pig's brain to nourish your mind... "
But Lin's Mother stopped mid-sentence when she stunnedly observed the bizarre scene inside the room.
