I Alone Am Immortal: My Rebirth and Leisurely Cultivation

Chapter 373 Li Yan is definitely willing
Li Yan clicked his tongue in regret, thinking that things could have developed in a much more interesting way.

This Zhu Gelin is quite a talent; he can do both.

If I remember correctly, Yang Xiong treated him to lunch last month.

Just as Li Yan was feeling regretful that one less source of amusement was missing, his arm was suddenly poked.

Turning his head, he saw Mei Mengqian step over the bamboo and poke him with her pen.

"What's wrong?" Li Yan looked over, and Jiang Yingzhu also turned her head.

While keeping an eye on Lin Aoshuang's movements, Mei Mengqian said, "The flag-raising ceremony is on Monday, the day after tomorrow."

"Doesn't that school require our music club to play music during the flag-raising ceremony? How do we play it? What do we play?"

Jiang Yingzhu scratched her head, "Li Yan and I are in the marching band, so we just play the drums when the songs are played."

"We don't have enough people, do we?"

Li Yan gestured for her not to rush, "Let the class monitor ask."

After speaking, he looked at Ye Hui with a questioning look in his eyes.

"Wait a minute." Ye Hui took out her phone, found the homeroom teacher's contact information, and sent a text message.

"Our homeroom teacher said that our club will try it out on Monday first, and we can consider having a marching band later. If it doesn't work out, we'll talk about it later. If we want, we'll play a march."

Jiang Yingzhu's eyes widened, and she suddenly remembered a question.

She doesn't play any musical instruments!

Yu Bing is now the drummer.

Even if she came, she wouldn't know how!

Or are you going to whistle?!
Last year, it was just for fun and to show off. Everyone else was performing properly, but she was just whistling. That was incredibly cool!

But raising the flag is a daily routine, and if she pees every time...
Just thinking about that scene made Jiang Yingzhu want to leave the group!

"What should we do, Li Yan!"

Jiang Yingzhu shared a worry with Li Yan.

"I don't want to whistle."

After hearing this, Li Yan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

His smile was fine until he started laughing, which immediately made Mei Mengqian and Ye Hui, as well as the girls secretly watching the drama unfold, laugh too.

Lin Aoshuang glanced down, and everyone immediately fell silent.

Li Yan glanced at Jiang Yingzhu, who was puffing up her cheeks.

It's true that people can be contagious.

The little deskmate can hum now, and Jiang Yingzhu can puff out her cheeks too.

Li Yan stretched out his finger and poked Jiang Yingzhu's delicate cheek, leaving a dent.

Jiang Yingzhu was not Mengmeng; she deliberately went against him, puffing out her cheeks forcefully.

On the podium, Lin Aoshuang's eyelids twitched.

Showing off in front of her, huh?

"Jiang Yingzhu, come up here, I'll give you a few questions."

"Teacher, Li Yan did it too!" Jiang Yingzhu's eyes widened.

"Then you can do his too. I see you two have a pretty good relationship," Lin Aoshuang said expressionlessly.

The audience below the stage burst into laughter.

Jiang Yingzhu knew she couldn't escape, so she had no choice but to go up.

And so, at the end of the evening self-study session, Jiang Yingzhu still had half of her work left unfinished.

I can only make it at home.

"It's all Li Yan's fault!" On the way home from school, Mei Mengqian and Zhu Zhu walked hand in hand, and Mei Mengqian helped her scold Li Yan.

“Zhuzhu, when Teacher Lin called you up, I was already cursing Li Yan to death in my heart. Even if he knelt down and begged me, I wouldn’t let him go.”

Jiang Yingzhu was speechless. "You must be laughing your head off. There's still half of the physics problem left, and we'll split it in half."

"Oh"

Li Yan rolled his eyes, thinking, "What a master of spiritual victory!"

Hua Junshu walked beside him and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

So Li Yan explained it again.

Hua Junshu automatically skipped the unimportant part about the teacher setting questions and said:

"Actually, I have a way to get Zhuzhu involved without whistling, so she doesn't have to learn a musical instrument on the spot."

"What can I do?!" Jiang Yingzhu immediately broke free from Mengmeng and grabbed her senior's hand. "Senior, you're the best! Please save me!"

"You can lead the singing of the national anthem," Hua Junshu said.

“Singing the national anthem is part of the flag-raising ceremony, but most of us are too shy to do it. Zhuzhu, if you lead the singing, it might have a good effect.”

As she spoke, Jiang Yingzhu's eyes gradually brightened, and a scene appeared in her mind—

The flag bearers behind him began raising the flag, the March of the Volunteers began playing, and music played on the background.

Then I stood at the very front, picked up the microphone and started the first line. More than a thousand high school students and teachers in front of me had to sing the national anthem with me.

As the solemn sound rang out, the bright red national flag slowly rose behind them.

perfect!

Absolutely stunning!!!

Jiang Yingzhu nodded vigorously, "Then I'll be the lead singer!"

As she spoke, she gave Hua Junshu a tight hug.

"This method is amazing! I love you so much, senior!"

"Small things."

Li Yan glanced at Jiang Yingzhu and said, "Is it possible that the whole school is watching you sing all by yourself?"

"Shut up, you're so noisy!"

Jiang Yingzhu put her hands on her hips and said, "I'll let my uncle sing first! Anyone who dares not to sing along will be publicly reprimanded throughout the school!"

A clever approach.

Li Yan, Mei Mengqian, and Hua Junshu all glanced at Zhuzhu in surprise.

It's as if she's suddenly become smarter.

Back home, the weather turned cool, and the large foot bath basin was brought out again.

Four people sat around the table, while one person sat on one side soaking their feet.

You step on me, I step on you.

Li Yan was being trampled on.

The three men complained that his feet were too big and took up too much space, so they could only put him at the very bottom.

Zhu Zhu and Meng Meng are doing their homework, while the senior student is watching videos.

Li Yan browsed Taobao and bought some daily necessities.

“Let’s go to Li Yan’s old house for a bit when we have the weekend,” Hua Junshu suddenly suggested.

"Hmm?" Jiang Yingzhu looked up. "Why are you going over there? It hasn't been cleaned in a year." "I chatted with Aunt Fang tonight, and she said there are some old things there, like photos, and asked if we could clean them up when we have time."

Hua Junshu glanced at Li Yan with a calm expression.

"A photo!" Mei Mengqian immediately grasped the key point. "A photo of Li Yan when he was a child? Great!"

Jiang Yingzhu was not interested at first, but she was happy to see Li Yan embarrassed, so she readily agreed.

"I know where to put it, I'll take you there next Sunday!"

Li Yan's lips twitched. She really had nothing better to do. And Ms. Fang, she always brought up the very thing she didn't want to talk about.

The group got excited and started stomping around in the basin of water, even stepping on Li Yan's leg.

Li Yan glanced at the three people who continued to stomp on his feet, ignoring whose feet they were.

He reached out and scratched.

"Hehe, oh dear, what are you doing!" Mei Mengqian looked over with displeasure.

"Nothing much, just catching fish."

"Humph!"

"Mengmeng, I'll help you!"

The calico cat was originally wandering around the water basin, but when the four people started splashing around, the water immediately startled it and made it retreat.

Seeing these four humans scratching around like that was quite puzzling.

The water cooled down quickly, and the three of them stopped playing. Hua Junshu went to pour out the water, and when he returned, Jiang Yingzhu and the other girl had finished their homework.

After finishing her homework, Jiang Yingzhu remembered the topic they had discussed in the classroom that evening.

"Senior, you'll be taking the college entrance exam next year, right?"

"Yes." Hua Junshu nodded, a clear sense of melancholy appearing on his face. "We'll be parting ways with you next year."

"Don't be sad, senior. We can stay together when you come back for the holidays," Jiang Yingzhu said.

“That’s right, that’s right.” Mei Mengqian nodded. “Li Yan would definitely agree.”

Li Yan blinked. "Yes."

Hua Junshu smiled and nodded slightly, then Jiang Yingzhu asked, "Senior, which university do you want to apply to? We haven't decided yet."

“The school? It must be the place where my father used to study.” Hua Junshu’s eyes revealed a hint of reminiscence.

“You don’t need to look at me. Choosing a school is also about choosing a city, and every city is different.”

Jiang Yingzhu and Mei Mengqian fell into deep thought. Seeing Jiang Yingzhu's troubled expression, Li Yan said:

“Actually, Fudan is not bad either. Jiang Yingzhu, didn’t you want to experience a big city? Shanghai is the most suitable place.”

“You are different from ordinary students. You already have things you want to do and know what you want for the future.”

"Then the choice of university and major will be clear."

He felt he needed to set a goal for Jiang Yingzhu.

In her previous life, Jiang Yingzhu was able to get into a top university because her homeroom teacher had set a goal for her in advance.

The specific school is not important right now.

In Li Yan's view, no matter where he chooses, he will not have an easy time as a future student of the Class of 2019.

It's difficult to experience a normal four years of university.

Jiang Yingzhu glanced at him and nodded.

"Going to sleep, all you do is push me too hard."

The next day, Li Yan didn't go to school in the morning; instead, Jiang Yingzhu and the other two went.

He planted trees at home.

tea tree.

Early in the morning, trucks arrived and parked outside, moving down one by one the tea trees with lush foliage, well-developed root systems, and still covered in soil.

The neighbors all came out to see.

The neighbor had just dropped his granddaughter off at school and was carrying a few fried dough sticks when he saw Li Yan busy at work.

"Little Li, you've planted something again. Is this a tea tree?"

"Longjing," Li Yan replied, startling Grandpa Qin, who was helping to move the things.

"Longjing, can it even grow here? It would be a shame if it died!"

"No problem," Li Yan smiled. "I'll send some tea leaves to you next year when I pick them."

Grandpa Qin shook his head, thinking the young man was being delusional and wasting money. He carefully straightened the crooked tea trees, sighed, and stopped trying to persuade him.

Zhou Qinqin had no classes in the morning, so she watched the commotion from the sidelines, offering her comments.

"The tree looks nice, but Li Yan, do you know how to plant it?"

"Yes, I just learned it."

Zhou Qinqin remembered the book this guy was reading in her class and choked on her own saliva.

"If you're going to teach there, why don't you get your biology teacher to help?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yan stroked his chin; this was indeed a good option.

Why not consult a professional?

So he didn't go to school in the afternoon either.

In front of Feiyun Building, Ye Qian, who had been invited to conduct research on cherry trees, stood under the tree, directing a group of agricultural graduate students to help cultivate the land, measure fertilizer application, and so on.

“Mentor, the conditions here are not good. It’s such a waste to plant such good tea plants here.”

Ye Qian glanced at the graduate student, holding two dates that Li Yan had given her.

"Okay, then you should write a paper on the geological and biological effects on tea tree quality."

The young graduate student looked distressed.

The others dispersed and remained silent.

When Zhou Qinqin returned from get out of class and saw this scene, she was stunned.

No way, how come you, a high school student, are using graduate-level terminology?!
Li Yan didn't notice her; he was chatting with Ye Qian.

"Thank you for your help, Aunt Ye."

"What trouble? The things here are precious. It's their good fortune that they even bother with them."

Ye Qian ate a jujube and realized that the jujube tree in the field was no ordinary tree.

One tree is luck, two trees are not.

She had no intention of getting to the bottom of things and proactively changed the subject.

“There are still quite a few empty spaces on your land. I happen to have some vegetable seeds in my car. How about I plant them for you and build a greenhouse so they can survive the winter?”

Li Yan glanced at the graduate students who were looking at him with resentment.

"Alright, let's get some seasonal items, we don't have to get everything."

Ye Qian nodded, and Zhou Qinqin stood over, looking somewhat envious.

She also wanted a group of slaves—no, graduate students—to help with farming.
