A Single Person's Infinite Wonderful Life

Chapter 4. Multiple Choice Questions

Cecilia and Houki Shinonono both opened their food boxes. Cecilia's box contained typical Ying-style dishes: golden-fried small fish and fries, fragrant grilled steak, and mashed potatoes and tomato salad on the side. Although the plating was quite thoughtful, it still couldn't hide the simple and crude nature of the dish.

On Shinobu Houki's side, it was a very traditional Japanese bento box, filled with many exquisitely crafted handmade sushi. Shinobu Houki knew that Li Wei didn't like raw food, so all the side dishes on the sushi rice were cooked. Although it went against the Japanese sushi tradition, it was made according to Li Wei's taste.

“You’ve put in a lot of effort. If we don’t finish all of this, it would be disrespectful to your hard work,” Li Wei said with a smile.

These days, fewer and fewer girls are willing to cook. For a girl to cook for a man is considered a rather serious and solemn matter. At least in China, there are fewer and fewer girls with good cooking skills. Many girls have been brainwashed by extreme feminism, believing that cooking is a sin and that not cooking is the only way to show their freedom and progress. On the contrary, men are becoming better and better cooks for the sake of their stomachs.

Li Wei himself is a perfect example. When he was studying in Japan, he was completely unaccustomed to the light flavors of Japanese cuisine, especially the raw food. He really couldn't get used to it. He tried sashimi and ended up having diarrhea for two days, almost to the point of collapse.

It was precisely for the sake of his health that Li Wei practiced his cooking skills diligently. With his own talent in cooking, he was far better than the average person, if not a professional chef. After becoming an extraordinary being, Li Wei's cooking skills had reached the point of transcending technique and attaining enlightenment. He was able to make dishes like the light dishes in "Cooking Master Boy". Such things were very simple for him.

Cecilia picked up a French fry from the food box, held it in her mouth, and brought it to Levi's face.

"Ah! You shameless bastard, you're cheating!" Shinonono Houki shoved Levi aside, biting the other end of the fries Cecilia was holding, and with a little force, the fries broke in two.

Cecilia glared angrily at Houki Shinonono. This was a plan she had painstakingly come up with. Although girls in European countries were generally more open-minded these days, she was a young lady from a noble family, and both her family's rules and her own heart were actually quite conservative. This approach had already crossed her own bottom line, but Houki Shinonono had still managed to ruin it, which made her furious.

“What’s wrong with feeding your favorite boy with your mouth?” Cecilia said with a mocking laugh.

"Of course that's wrong! Are you an idiot who lacks common sense? And you just said you like a boy! I didn't expect you to have such thoughts hidden!" Shinonono Houki instantly bristled. Cecilia had been trying to hide it before, but now the other party hadn't even bothered with the most basic concealment, openly saying that she liked - Levi.

“I just like Levi, so what? Does it bother you?” Cecilia crossed her arms, her chin slightly raised, like a proud little peacock.

Upon hearing Cecilia's open admission that she liked Li Wei, Houki Shinonono was struck dumb and said, "Since you like Li Wei, why did you challenge him?"

Cecilia said, "Isn't it normal to urge the boy you like to become better? I hope to become better with Li Weiqi, which is why I challenged him."

Shinonono Houki's face turned bright red. She hadn't expected Cecilia to have such a pretext. Moreover, she was the one who arrived first, so Cecilia could be considered a third party.

Houki Shinobu said, "I was here first! You're being a third party, which is immoral."

Cecilia sneered and said, "Immoral? There's no such thing as morality when it comes to matters of the heart. Besides, Levi isn't married, which means I also have a chance. I'm competing with you. Let's just rely on our own abilities."

Shinonono Houki gritted her teeth. She hadn't expected the other party to be so shameless, but this shamelessness was the other party's advantage. Moreover, what Cecilia said made some sense. Levi was not married, so anything was possible.

Thinking of this, Houki Shinohara felt a sense of fear and looked at Li Wei with pitiful eyes, looking like a kitten in a cardboard box by the roadside, extremely pitiful.

Li Wei has considerable experience in mediating disputes. After all, wherever there are people, there are conflicts, especially with so many girls on the floating island. There will always be some minor frictions. Although Li Wei can keep all his partners in line, girls always like to create trouble when they have free time. Therefore, Li Wei is quite skilled at mediating conflicts between his partners.

Li Wei said, "Stop arguing. I really don't know what you two are thinking about all day. Students should act like students. Aren't you tired of thinking about love all the time? Besides, I'm also conflicted. I like both of you, but if I have to choose, how should I choose?"

........ ......... ...

Cecilia and Houki Shinonono simultaneously pinched Li Wei's waist, twisting it with practiced ease. Li Wei remained calm; girls seemed to be born with the skill of pinching and twisting waists, and he had long since developed a resistance to such "attacks."

With her hands on her hips, Shinonono Houki confidently declared, "Of course, you should choose me!"

Cecilia revealed a sinister smile and said, "If you dare not choose me, Levi, then I will take you down with me."

Li Wei wanted to complain inwardly. Cecilia was a typical stubborn mule. Despite her tough talk, she was actually panicking inside, afraid that what Houki Shinonono had said would happen.

Li Wei placed both hands on Cecilia and Shinonono Houki's heads and said, "This happened when I was in junior high school. Junior high school is the seventh grade in Japan. Back then, the school tested English, and we had to do multiple-choice questions. When faced with multiple-choice questions, I instinctively chose all of them, including A, B, C, and D."

"That's too cunning!" said Houki Shinohara, dissatisfied.

Li Wei said, "But choosing only one is absolutely wrong."

Cecilia turned her cheeks up like a hamster eating. As a Protestant country, Ying Kingdom has a very traditional view on marriage, believing in absolute marital relations. Even the ancient nobles had to abide by this rule on the surface.

But she knew that even if Li Wei, who wasn't a believer, had his own ideas, she couldn't say he was at a disadvantage.

Chapter 4. Unable to resist greed.

Cecilia said, "Human beings have limits. Everyone is bound by constraints in this world. These constraints may be morality, law, or even power or violence. No one can truly transcend worldly constraints."

Cecilia thought to herself that even as the only daughter of the Alcatel family and a future Dame, she would still be subject to all sorts of constraints, and Levi's "I want it all" seemed unrealistic to her.

Children are the ones who say "I want it all," while adults know they don't really have a choice.

Li Wei pointed to the sky, raised his head slightly, and said, "Grandma once said that I am the king standing at the top of the world, and I am the rule."

Li Wei's words were quite domineering, but to the two girls, they sounded incredibly silly.

Cecilia gave a disdainful look and said, "Levi, you're just drowning in your delusions. The real world isn't your playground, and life isn't a novel or a movie. No one can truly be unrestrained."

Li Wei laughed and said, "Who can say for sure? It's like when the captain of the Titanic saw the iceberg, he only saw the part above the sea. Who knows how huge the part below the sea is?"

Cecilia was filled with doubt and surprise upon hearing Li Wei's words. She wasn't stupid; how could she not understand the implied meaning in Li Wei's words? But she couldn't imagine whether Li Wei really possessed power that transcended worldly rules.

She found it somewhat ridiculous. Did he really think he could rely on IS armor? Didn't she see that the world's strongest IS pilots were hiding in the academy, afraid to make any big moves, lest their overreactions implicate their families? What gave Li Wei the confidence to say such a thing? She couldn't understand it.

However, when she saw Li Wei's confident smile, especially his bright, moon-like eyes, a bizarre thought arose in her mind: perhaps Li Wei really could do such a thing?

Cecilia banished the absurd idea from her mind. How could one person possibly fight against the whole world? Even Chifuyu Orimura back then had to compromise now.

As the only daughter of the Alcatel family, she received elite education far exceeding that of her peers from a young age. With the help of the family's intelligence channels, she knew many sensitive things that ordinary people did not know, such as why Chifuyu Orimura came to the academy to become a teacher. Ordinary people only knew her apparent excuse, but she knew much more information.

Because she knows far more than her peers, she appears much more mature than them, but she also loses the right to dream, because she knows that dreams are illusory.

Shinonono Houki tightened her grip on Li Wei's waist and said, "Li Wei-kun, I never thought you would be this kind of person, a greedy devil who wants everything."

Shinobu was a little angry. Although Li Wei's gesture of pointing one finger to the sky was very cool, just like he said, standing at the top of the world, she had to share his care with the other girls, which made her very uncomfortable.

Li Wei walked to the window, pulled the curtains back closed, and said, "Cecilia, Houki, human vision has its limits. Many people only want to believe what they see, but sometimes what you see is not necessarily the truth. Do you really understand me? Do you really know what kind of person I am?"

Shinobu Houki disliked Li Wei's serious demeanor, but Li Wei's words made her start to think. Just as Li Wei himself said, did she really understand Li Wei? And what kind of things had Li Wei experienced in the past? Did she know?

Li Wei's face was quite young and did not appear weathered, but when she saw Li Wei's eyes, her first feeling was that Li Wei was a person with a story.

Shinonono Houki is facing a problem. Li Wei's past is very mysterious. She has no idea where Li Wei has been or what he has experienced. She only knows that Li Wei said he has traveled around the world, but he has not told her about his experiences in detail, and she has not asked him about it.

Li Wei laughed and said, "See? You don't know me well enough. How can you say that there are things I can't do? And the reason I'm so greedy is because for me, parting with an ordinary person could very well be a permanent farewell."

Li Wei was telling the truth. Other people's long-distance relationships are at most separated by a city, but his long-distance relationship is separated by worlds. So Li Wei will be as greedy as possible, because if he is not greedy, he will miss out on a lot of good girls.

For example, if he went to the world of "School Days," and faced with Saionji Sekai and Katsura Kotonoha, would he still choose to leave himself to trash like Ito Makoto?

For example, if he went to the world of "Is it only you who likes me?", could he just stand by and watch Sumireko Sanshokuin be raped by trash like Taiyo Oga? And then he went to be with that trashy male protagonist, Kisaragi Amuro, who would offer his own woman to someone else for the sake of so-called friendship?

Therefore, Li Wei was greedy, because if he weren't greedy, the fate of these girls would be quite tragic. Being a chivalrous man, he absolutely could not tolerate such a thing happening.

Such greed, mixed with her own desires, is also a kind of salvation in a way, after all, the world is too unfriendly to those girls.

Cecilia noticed the unusual nature of Levi's words. Although she hesitated, she still said what she wanted to say: "Levi, don't you have your own place to belong? I can feel your alienation from everyone around you."

Li Wei laughed and said, "That's normal. After all, this isn't my home, so it's not surprising that I feel a little distant."

Cecilia didn't want to dwell on this unsettling topic any longer, and said, "Let's eat first, Houki. I'm not in the mood to mess around with you right now; we still have simulation training later."

Houki Shinonono also noticed Cecilia's low spirits. Although the two often bickered over various things, they had unknowingly become friends since the start of the school year.

After a somewhat dull dinner, the three of them went to the simulation training hall for training. However, this time, the two girls and Li Wei communicated much less, and both of them looked preoccupied.

However, time heals all wounds. Within two days, the two girls had returned to their usual liveliness. Li Wei sensed their private conversations and realized that they had reached a consensus on some issues.

Chapter 4. Post-Class Meetings

As the agreed-upon time for the decisive battle drew closer, both Shinonono Houki and Cecilia began to grow nervous, but Levi remained as calm as ever.

In class, Cecilia stared absentmindedly at Levi's back as he sat in the front row, while Yamada Maya on the podium was diligently tapping the blackboard and explaining.

Maya Yamada did have hands when teaching, but Cecilia had already learned what she was talking about beforehand. Because there was no pressure to fall behind, Cecilia naturally drifted off into a daze.

Cecilia's mind was still replaying the words Levi had spoken a few days ago. She found it hard to accept sharing this with Shinobu Houki, after all, Levi was a living, breathing person, not food or a book.

Moreover, even if she could accept such a thing, her parents would not agree. Although the Alcatel family is not a top-tier family in the elite circles, they are not nobody on the street either, and they also have their pride.

If Li Wei intends to be with her, then she can only be by his side. After all, she's not alone; she also has to consider her family's capacity to cope and the opinions of her social circle regarding such matters. Ultimately, as long as one lives in this world, one will be subject to various constraints—this is something that cannot be avoided.

At this moment, Li Wei was slightly raising his head, admiring the beautiful teacher on the podium. He had to admit, Yamada Maya's looks were truly captivating. Her unique charm, a blend of youthful innocence and maturity, gave her the feel of a friendly, approachable college student. However, in reality, Yamada Maya was indeed a college student. There are always geniuses in the world who are unmatched by ordinary people, and Yamada Maya was one such person. That's why she was able to become an assistant homeroom teacher at such a young age.

Maya Yamada also noticed Li Wei's gaze. Li Wei's eyes were bright and clear, looking straight at her without any desire. His gaze was simply one of appreciation for beauty, which made her feel no aversion to Li Wei's behavior.

Maya Yamada felt a little shy because Levi's gaze was too bold. However, because Levi was sitting in the front row, the others did not know that Levi was admiring Maya Yamada; they only thought that she was really looking at the blackboard.

The bell rang, signaling the end of get out of class. Yamada Maya approached Li Wei and whispered, "Li Wei, could you come with me for a moment?"

After saying this, Maya Yamada looked up at the students behind her and said, "It's break time now. See you next class."

After saying that, Yamada Maya left the classroom almost as if she were fleeing, and Li Wei also stood up and followed in Yamada Maya's footsteps.

Li Wei and Yamada Maya were less than three body lengths apart. Li Wei followed her to a secluded corner, which happened to be a blind spot for the surveillance cameras. The cameras could only see the two of them pass by before losing sight of them.

Li Wei said, "Teacher, did you call me here because you have something important to tell me?"

Maya Yamada glared fiercely at Li Wei, her face slightly flushed, and said somewhat awkwardly, "Li Wei, I noticed that you weren't looking at the blackboard during class, but were staring straight at me. Do I know why you were doing that?"

Li Wei laughed and said, "Because you are very beautiful, teacher, so I am admiring a beautiful woman."

Li Wei's words made Yamada Maya feel like her head was about to boil. Li Wei didn't hide his meaning at all, and even turned the tables on her.

Maya Yamada forcefully suppressed her embarrassment and excitement, and said, "It's not good to just stare at the teacher. If you don't really listen to the lesson, it will affect your grades."

Li Wei laughed and said, "What's more important than appreciating your beauty, teacher? Besides, I've already previewed all your lessons, so I don't have to worry about falling behind. I preview them so that I can focus on appreciating your beauty during class. By the way, teacher, your dress is very pretty today. You usually like to wear trousers, so it's rare to see you wearing a dress today."

Maya Yamada's pretty face visibly flushed red, even her ears turned red. She hadn't expected Li Wei to be so bold, but hearing what Li Wei said, she felt a strange sense of joy. She thought to herself, "I'm quite charming, aren't I?"

Maya Yamada feigned annoyance and said, "The teacher called you here not to comment on the teacher's clothes. Li Wei, could you please stop staring at the teacher during class?"

Maya Yamada's shyness was almost overflowing. Li Wei's eyes were very clear, without the slightest desire in them, but being stared at like that made her feel indescribably shy. In particular, Li Wei did not hide his appreciation for her at all, which made her feel secretly happy, scared, worried, nervous, and excited. All sorts of messy emotions were mixed together, and she could hardly concentrate on teaching her students.

Li Wei said, "Hey, why can't we just stare at the teacher? The greatest pleasure in attending your class is appreciating your beauty. Of course, I'm not saying this to doubt your teaching ability, but rather that I prefer seeing your smile to the content you teach."

Li Wei's words made Yamada Maya gasp for breath. The handsome young man in front of her was like a leech, spouting nonsense, but she couldn't feel the slightest aversion to him. This frightened her. She didn't know what was wrong with her. Faced with such a situation, she felt no disgust, but rather a secret delight. This made her wonder if there was something wrong with her. Being looked at like that by her student, she actually felt excited.
