I Alone Am Immortal: My Rebirth and Leisurely Cultivation

Chapter 127 Senior's Hobbies

That evening, Jiang Yingzhu didn't eat and spent the whole afternoon lying down to digest, which left her traumatized.

Li Yan ate an appetizer in front of her and then pulled Mei Mengqian along.

Driven by anger, Jiang Yingzhu cast aside her fear and revealed her true, greedy nature, snatching the last serving of original recipe chicken.

In retaliation, he forbade Li Yan from staying in his room at night to do his own thing, and instead made him come out to play games.

Since Li Yan had nothing better to do, he decided to spend some time playing with the two of them.

Jiang Yingzhu has great athletic talent, but she's terrible at games.

In comparison, Mei Mengqian is a well-rounded person, especially skilled, but not quite at the top level.

Just like learning, it requires practice!

Li Yan was tricked to death by Jiang Yingzhu again. Before dying, he took away the opponent's archer and couldn't help but taunt him.

"Jiang Yingzhu, you're not even as good as a human robot."

"Who said that? I can beat the AI!"

Mei Mengqian nodded. "I can vouch for Zhuzhu. She can beat someone in the Silver rank."

Having been betrayed, Jiang Yingzhu put down her phone and said, "I'm not fighting anymore!"

Li Yan and Mei Mengqian exchanged a glance, and then Li Yan said:
"Zhuzhu, if you want to rank up next time, you can give your account to Li Hua next door."

"why?"

"Because if someone insults a primary school student again, it's not just insulting them anymore. Li Hua next door really is a primary school student."

Jiang Yingzhu sat up abruptly, chased the annoying guy out, and started doing her homework.

······
On Sundays, the study group has been permanently residing at Li Yan's home.

Jiang Yingzhu and Mei Mengqian have finished their first year of high school and are now preparing for their second year.

So now they are studying together with Hua Junshu, and Li Yan can't participate, since he has already learned it.

Jiang Yingzhu was very puzzled by this and kept telling Mei Mengqian in secret that she had been secretly rolling the ball.

Li Yancai didn't bother to say anything. Usually at this time, he would do some practice problems to maintain his form.

Actually, it's not necessary to maintain it, but since he's accompanying Jiang Yingzhu and Mei Mengqian in their studies, he should at least put on a certain appearance.

When I get tired of studying, I can have a snack or look at my little green plum sitting across from me.

Jiang Yingzhu always wore her short hair down, which perfectly accentuated the smooth contours of her face.

Just like foot fetishes and hand fetishes, people's preferences are biased.

Li Yan also has a foot fetish; it's not that he's not a foot fetishist, because he can appreciate long legs and beautiful feet.

But what he likes most is eyes, he doesn't know why, he just likes them.

Eyebrows and eyes are a unified whole. Jiang Yingzhu's eyebrows and eyes are very beautiful, heroic and sharp, and her eyes are also very intense, like the summer sun.

As Li Yan was analyzing and observing in his mind, he suddenly felt a pain in his toe. He looked up and saw a crumpled piece of paper thrown at him from the opposite side. There was nothing inside.

Yes, that's what summer sunlight is like—rough and unruly, not gentle at all, requiring you to open a parasol for protection.

Li Yan shifted his gaze to Mei Mengqian. Mei Mengqian had willow-leaf eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes. Her gaze was calm and composed, giving people the feeling of an ink painting. However, you couldn't tell just by looking at her eyebrows and eyes. It was a kind of temperament composed of the overall harmony of her facial features.

Since it was a painting, it naturally wouldn't hurt anyone, so Li Yan looked at it for a little longer.

Then I looked away and started working on the problems.

Seeing this, Jiang Yingzhu urged, "Mengmeng, hit him! Otherwise you'll lose!"

Mei Mengqian shook her head, and Jiang Yingzhu sighed.

Tired of doing the problems, Li Yan looked at Hua Junshu beside him.

Hua Junshu's eyebrows and eyes were neither gentle nor sharp; what stood out most was her gaze, deep and dark, carrying a chilling aura.

Like a bottomless pool on a snow-capped mountain, clear yet unfathomable.

After reviewing the three books three times, the morning passed, and we had a delicious lunch prepared by the senior student. The atmosphere in the afternoon was much more relaxed, and everyone read books and corrected their mistakes.

Li Yan sat on the balcony carving a stone, with a camera next to him.

The last time he updated his Douyin account with a singing video, a group of people appeared and begged for a carving video.

This time, he plans to carve a few small pendants to update the safety measures on Jiang Yingzhu and the others.

Especially for Hua Junshu, Li Yan doesn't have many opportunities to give protective items, so it needs to be updated even more.

Jiang Yingzhu and Mei Mengqian came over one after the other to take a look, and then went back to their sofas.

Hua Junshu also came over to take a look, a hint of doubt appearing on his usually aloof face. "Does anyone else look at this?"

"Yes, even when you're sleeping, someone will watch you." Li Yan nodded.
Hua Junshu hummed in response and then remained silent, it was unclear whether he was surprised or simply didn't feel anything.

She remained silent, but Li Yan had something to say:

"How's your account on Bilibili doing, senior?"

"It's alright, I have tens of thousands of followers, but I don't update very often."

"It hasn't been that long, there's no need to rush."

Li Yan finished carving the last stroke of the jade in his hand, and a lifelike jade dragon image immediately appeared on it.

Then he took out a red string, threaded it on, and handed it to Hua Junshu.

"This"

Hua Junshu was taken aback.

"Isn't the senior student born in the Year of the Dragon?"

Li Yan asked, recalling that some people from his year had to repeat a year because of their birthdays.

But I haven't encountered many students starting school early.

"Born in the Year of the Dragon." Hua Junshu nodded, took the item, and examined it with his eyes lowered.

Li Yan then carved two more baby snakes and gave them to Mei Mengqian and Jiang Yingzhu.

Knowing that his senior might be embarrassed to accept his gifts, Li Yan handed the camera to her and said:
"Senior, could you help me edit this video?"

"it is good."

Jiang Yingzhu, who was standing nearby, saw him ordering his senior around and immediately asked, "Where are you going?"

"I'm going out for a stroll, without you guys."

Jiang Yingzhu chuckled twice and pulled Mei Mengqian and Hua Junshu aside. "I have someone with me, unlike you, all alone. Do you think I need you to take me with me?"

"Ah, yes, yes!"

Li Yan gave a casual reply and closed the door.

Mei Mengqian glanced at the closed door and said to Jiang Yingzhu:
"Zhuzhu, where did Li Yan go?"

"I don't know, it must be something shameful." Jiang Yingzhu scoffed.

"Ignore him, let's keep playing."

Mei Mengqian glanced at the time. "It's almost evening. Should we ask him to bring something?"

"Okay, Mengmeng, you go and say it!"

"Huh? Why?"

"Because he's an idiot!" Jiang Yingzhu gritted her teeth again as she recalled being teased after school on Friday.

There's also that building block toy that you have to press the 'stupid' button to turn it on and off.

I said I would definitely be tricked, and Mengmeng can't stand being tricked, so I won't.

Mei Mengqian nodded. "Alright then, Zhuzhu, what would you like to eat? Fried potatoes or stir-fry?"

"Fried potatoes!"

"How much do you want, three or five yuan?"

"Five pieces, plus meat, plus stinky tofu, plus ham sausage."

Mei Mengqian nodded, then asked, "Do you want it spicy or not spicy?"

Jiang Yingzhu suddenly stopped talking, turned her head with a question mark on her face, hugged her and looked at her phone.

Sure enough, the chat box was empty!
"Mengmeng, you've gone astray!"

······
Li Yan wasn't shopping; he went to buy medicinal herbs.

This time, he met with several medicinal herb wholesalers, negotiated prices with them, and agreed to deliver the herbs regularly to the bungalows by the river.

Then he pretended to leave, but actually used his divine sense to observe the three bosses.

The medicinal herb wholesale market is only so big, so you'll most likely know these people.

Just as Li Yan had predicted, a moment later, a bald man said to the red-faced man beside him:
"Brother Zhang, this is a big order! Do you still have enough defective products?"

The man called Brother Zhang glanced at him. "You're trying to pass off inferior goods as superior ones?"

"What do you mean by passing off inferior goods as superior ones? With such a large quantity, isn't it normal for there to be a few defective products? Everyone does it this way."

Brother Zhang shook his head. "Just because everyone does it, does that mean it should be this way? I've said I won't use counterfeit goods, and I mean it!"

After saying that, he left without even glancing at the two people inside the room.

"It's so ungrateful!"

"That's right, let's all work together to sell the goods, and then we can pin the 'second-rate' label on him!" another boss suggested.

The bald man laughed, "Boss Gao is still the best!"

"You're not bad either, little brother."

The two held hands and chatted happily before driving together to the Tenglong Hotel for drinks.

Just after passing an intersection, a heavy truck carrying a series of Buddha statues sped out, unable to stop, and ran a red light.

It just so happened that it crashed into the car of the two bald men.

The other vehicles swerved to avoid it, but the semi-trailer suddenly came to a steady stop.

Li Yanfei crossed the intersection but didn't rush home. He bought the food his three daughters wanted to eat, along with a large bag of snacks, before heading back.

Open the door and hand three portions of fried potatoes to Jiang Yingzhu, Mei Mengqian, and Hua Junshu.

"Thank you," Hua Junshu said, then added, "The video is edited, but the background music and voices haven't been cut."

"Thank you for your hard work, senior."

Li Yan nodded, carrying the snacks, and walked towards the room under Jiang Yingzhu's expectant gaze.

So many snacks, I want to eat them all!

However, with snacks in her hand, it seemed like there was no reason to talk about them. A thought struck her, and she decided to tell a joke to steer the conversation towards the snacks:

"Mengmeng, do you know who the person in the world loves eating snacks the most?"

Mei Mengqian took a bite of the spring roll and asked hesitantly, "Is it you?"

"No! It's Yuan Shikai! Because he's the provisional president, hahaha!"

Mei Mengqian twitched the corner of her mouth, sensing that Zhuzhu was possessed.

Her eyes darted around, and she suddenly saw her senior's shoulders trembling as she covered her mouth and revealed a smile that was not usually seen.

"Eh?"

Jiang Yingzhu realized the blind spot and stopped planning for Li Yan's snacks, looking at her senior.

Li Yan also looked over.

Jiang Yingzhu and Mengmeng exchanged a glance. Could it be...?
Jiang Yingzhu said without hesitation, "Senior, let me tell you a joke."

"Ultraman, guess a celebrity, do you know what comes after?"

“The celebrity was beaten to death,” Mei Mengqian interjected.

"Goose goose goose~~~" Hua Junshu couldn't hold back any longer, his aloof stance shattered, and he let out a goose-like cry.

"And another thing, what do ghosts in Hunan call?"

"Xiangpiaopiao!"

"Cough cough!" Hua Junshu, who had already recovered, couldn't help but cough again.

Amidst the trembling of the blossoms, Li Yan gained a profound understanding of what it meant to be in a state of utter chaos.

Then, Jiang Yingzhu and Mei Mengqian collaborated to tell Hua Junshu a five-minute joke.

My throat is dry from talking.

Li Yan rubbed his forehead. These two troublemakers, who exactly led them astray?
