Start with a dragon egg and join the chat group

"Well, I guess I'd call myself a 'Chinese,'" Lu Tianyu smiled. In his past life, he was indeed Chinese, but in this life... he wasn't even human anymore. However, deep down, he still considered himself Chinese.

Otherwise, why would he go to China when the whole world is just experiencing a spiritual revival, activating dragon veins and giving away cultivation techniques, acting like an old man?

Before long, Lu Tianyu was led by Yu Zi into a small alley.

A quarrel could be heard from ahead.

One of them was the same voice of the big tree that sold rice cakes to Lu Tianyu yesterday; it sounded very strong.

"That's why I said it won't work, with your shabby shop."

"What did you say, you bastard!"

"Hmm?" Yu Zi walked forward helplessly.

There stood a handsome young man with orange hair, looking helplessly at the two arguing in front of him.

"Mochizou," Tamako called out to the Mochizou.

"Tamako." Mochizou turned his head and saw the fat bird above him pulling Lu Tianyu and Tamako, asking, "Who is this? And why is this fat bird flying on your head again?"

"This is Lu Tianyu, a Chinese. He's here to buy rice cakes. As for Dila, she's been clinging to me since this morning," Yuzi said helplessly.

After saying that, he looked at the two people arguing in front of him.

He said, as if it were commonplace, "They're arguing again."

"They're arguing again. My dad and his family are really something," Mochizou replied helplessly.

Lu Tianyu looked up at Bingzang beside him. "This young man has potential," he thought, "he's even starting to call me 'Dad.' Yuzi hasn't objected yet. He's learned it, he's learned it!"

"So what's so great about opening a rice cake shop three days earlier than ours?" Mochizou's father said, arms crossed.

"It's better than your fancy stuff. At least inherit some tradition!" Tamako's father pointed at the mochi shop sign of Mochizoku and said, "Look at this mess you've made, 'RLbsp;OH!ZEE' is awful, this sign is awful!"

At this moment, Yu Zi pulled Lu Tianyu to the front of the two of them and looked at the signboard of Mochizou's shop, saying, "Hey, Mingming is so handsome, it's the new signboard of Ojiya."

"Sigh!" Yu Zi's father looked at his daughter and immediately gave up, looking at his precious daughter with disappointment.

"As expected of Tama." Mochizou's father looked at his dejected opponent and said smugly, "From now on, it's the era of promoting mochi to the world. In English, it's called RLCECAKE."

"Rice cake is rice cake!" Boss Yu shouted, and started arguing with Old Man Mochizou.

Yu Zi looked at the two people in front of her and shrugged helplessly at Lu Tianyu.

He said to the two people who were fighting, "Excuse me, please move aside."

As he spoke, he pulled Lu Tianyu past the two of them, and Bingzang, who was standing nearby, followed suit.

Afterwards, Lu Tianyu entered the rice cake shop under Yu Zi's guidance.

Inside, a girl who looked very much like Tamako and was equally cute looked at the three people who had entered.

"Sister, Mochizou, you're back." The filling asked, "Who is this?"

Xianzi looked at Lu Tianyu, and she was a little curious about the boy who looked just like her and had been brought home by her older sister.

"This is Lu Tianyu, he's here to buy rice cakes," Yu Zi explained.

"Hello!" Lu Tianyu greeted the filling.

Afterwards, Lu Tianyu chatted with the others at Yuzi's rice cake shop for a while and bought some rice cakes. After saying goodbye to Yuzi and the others, he went to buy a cake.

Lu Tianyu sent a bunch of cakes and rice cakes to everyone in the group... The rice cakes from Yu Zi's family and the Mochi Collection family were all bought up by Lu Tianyu today.

Chapter 173 Visiting the Izumi Family

After distributing the cakes he had promised everyone, Lu Tianyu, carrying a cake in his left hand and eating rice cakes, swayed as he walked towards the house next to his home.

"Ding dong! Ding dong!"

"They're here, they're here."

The door opened, and Izumi Masamune walked out. Looking at Lu Tianyu in front of him, he asked with a puzzled expression, "Hello, little friend, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Hello." Lu Tianyu smiled and handed over the cake, saying, "I'm Lu Tianyu, the new neighbor who moved in next door yesterday. I was too busy yesterday, so I'm only visiting today."

"Next door?" Izumi Masamune looked in the direction Lu Tianyu was pointing and asked, "Isn't that Mr. Honda's house? When did they sell the house?"

"This..." Lu Tianyu thought about the situation of selling the house yesterday and nodded: "It was about the same. I just happened to need it, so I bought it."

"Sigh." Izumi Masamune said with a smile, "Lu Tianyu, thank you for the cake, please come in."

Although he wasn't sure what Lu Tianyu was talking about, he did see Mr. Honda and his family packing up and leaving yesterday. He thought they were going on a trip. Besides, Lu Tianyu was only seven or eight years old, yet he was so cute and had a certain charm.

He's definitely a good kid... Even if he has some bad intentions, surely a high school student like myself can't beat a seven or eight-year-old, right?

Afterwards, Lu Tianyu followed Izumi Masamune inside.

The living room is decorated much like any other ordinary home. The only difference is the large light novel and anime merchandise calendar on the wall.

Lu Tianyu stared intently at the calendar on the wall, looking at it repeatedly. If he wasn't mistaken, this should be merchandise related to Izumi Masamune's own novel... It seems he's quite...

"What are you looking at?" Izumi Masamune placed the brewed tea on the table and asked curiously, noticing that Lu Tianyu kept staring at it.

"It's nothing. It's just that this calendar is quite cute. If I'm not mistaken, it should be merchandise from some novel I've been reading recently," Lu Tianyu explained.

"Really?" Izumi Masamune looked at Lu Tianyu excitedly and asked, "What do you think of which novel?"

After saying that, she looked at Lu Tianyu expectantly.

"Not bad." Lu Tianyu thought about the volumes he had read and gave a fair evaluation.

"Is...is that so?" Izumi Masamune stammered, scratching the back of his head. He had thought his novel would get positive reviews from his new neighbor...thankfully, he didn't know he was a writer, or he would have been so embarrassed he'd run away with a train overnight.

"What's wrong? Do you know this writer, Izumi?" Lu Tianyu looked at Izumi Masamune with a half-smile.

Seeing Lu Tianyu's smile, which seemed to indicate that he had figured something out, Izumi Masamune quickly changed the subject, asking, "Lu Tianyu, do you usually read a lot of novels?"

"Look, I read all the novels I like, as well as comics and anime. You could call me an otaku. Just call me Tianyu," Lu Tianyu said with a smile.

"Really?" Izumi Shinshu looked at Lu Tianyu and said shyly, "Actually, I'm an otaku too. But, Tianyu, can you tell other people about being an otaku?"

In Japan, many people look down on otaku, even though anime, light novels, manga, and other media bring huge profits to the country.

That's a really problematic personality!

"Is there anything I can't say?" Lu Tianyu looked at Izumi Masamune and asked, "Would you give up on your own affairs just because of what others think?"

Izumi Masamune shook his head.

"Mm," Lu Tianyu said with a smile.

Just then, a stomping sound came from upstairs.

Hearing his sister stomping her feet, Izumi Masamune glanced at Lu Tianyu apologetically and explained, "The person upstairs is my sister, Izumi Sagiri. But she's too shy to come out."

"It's nothing, it's nothing." Lu Tianyu waved his hand dismissively and said, "It seems your sister has something to discuss with you. I'll take my leave now and visit again another day."

After saying that, he drank the tea in his cup in one gulp.

He left the Izumi family directly. Anyway, there would be plenty of time in the future. His main purpose in coming here was just to visit the Izumi siblings, and he had unexpectedly gotten along well with Izumi.

As for Sagiri, they'll have time to become friends later. Lu Tianyu was quite confident about this.

After leaving Sagiri's house, Lu Tianyu returned to his own home with nothing to do.

In the room, Sisi, who had been lying on the bed, had already left.

This morning, after Lu Tianyu left, Sisi went back to Heavenly City to play by herself. As a homebody, she spends most of her time either in Lu Tianyu's inner world or in Heavenly City.

Seeing that Sisi wasn't there, Lu Tianyu was too lazy to move. He simply lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

...

...

evening.

After saying goodbye to Liu Hua and the others, Guanghua returned home.

"I'm back," Guanghua called out into the house.

After changing his shoes, Guanghua looked into the room with a puzzled expression. Inside, the setting sun shone on the sofa... but it was empty.

The whole house was quiet.

"Has he not returned yet?" Guanghua murmured.

Then, Guanghua took out a bunch of Coke, potato chips... This was the perfect teamwork that Umaru told him when he had lunch with Ebina and Umaru at noon today.

Since Lu Tianyu isn't here, and neither are Inaho-nee and Renka... it's like nobody's watching her... it's like she's free!

Guanghua ate potato chips while thinking about the events of the day.

In a few days, it will be the school festival.

The entire school began preparations.

This also includes their club, the 'Far East Magic Nap Club'.

Today, everyone, including the newly joined Umaru and Ebina, gathered together.

Amidst the bickering between Dansheng Valley and Kusanagi, they also decided to participate in the school festival.

In Dansheng Valley's words, "Take advantage of the school festival to greatly increase her popularity, recruit new members, and give her an edge in the student council president election..." Although Guanghua didn't understand what that was all about, as long as Dansheng Valley was happy, that was all that mattered.

Moreover, Dansheng Valley also asked Guanghua to bring Tianyu to school tomorrow, without saying what the reason was, keeping it all very mysterious.

Thinking of this, Guanghua sighed helplessly.

She had a rough idea of ​​why Dansheng Valley wanted Lu Tianyu to go to school tomorrow.

Lately, Rikka and Yuuta have been avoiding each other. Ever since Rikka's father said something to Yuuta, Rikka has been avoiding him, and Yuuta is powerless to stop it.

After all, for Rikka, who has always been deeply mired in chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), romance is a mysterious thing she has never encountered before.

Everyone has been watching closely and is anxious about it.

If nothing unexpected happens that makes Rikka honestly accept her own feelings, then it's unclear how long it will take for Rikka and Yuuta to be together.

Their friends were also secretly plotting on their phones to help the two of them get back together.

Sending Lu Tianyu tomorrow is probably a plan to initiate something.

Thinking of this, Guanghua couldn't help but look forward to tomorrow.

After finishing his snacks, Guanghua went back to his room to rest.
