How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

The girl called out to Hongli, whose lips curled slightly upward, but she didn't turn around: "What's wrong?"

"What about the challenge?"

"Didn't I say I was going to eat?"

"Can I take on the challenge after we finish eating?"

"Um……"

Hongli turned to look at the girl's expectant eyes: "Seeing how sincere you are..."

"Great!"

"Don't rush to be happy yet."

Hongli shook her head: "There are conditions."

"Hmm, what are the conditions?"

The girl was puzzled.

"Why don't you just treat me to this meal?"

Hong Li remained calm: "Anyway, you're a VIP member, so treating me to a meal won't cost much. Let's just forget about you having people spy on me before."

"really?"

The girl's eyes lit up: "It's that simple?!"

"Ah."

Hongli lowered her head, her ten toes curling tightly as she struggled to suppress a laugh: "That's right, it's that simple!"

"Okay, it's a deal!"

"Oh, right, I haven't asked you your name yet."

"Senior sister, my name is Xingyun, you can just call me Xiaoyun!"

"Oh, Xiaoyun, what a good child."

……

"Well……"

Xingyun stared blankly at her cafeteria membership token, which had the number ten on it before she entered the cafeteria.

Now, the number above is twenty.

In just the time it takes to eat a meal, the number on the screen has increased by ten. Xingyun should be happy.

If there is no negative sign before the number twenty!

"Ah... thank you for the hospitality..."

Hongli slumped in the chair, touching her round little belly, a happy smile on her face.

Looking at the food pictures she had just saved, Hongli decided to send them all to Heiyang!

[Hongli: [Images][Images][Images][Images][Images]]

[Hongli: Sweet and Sour Three-Colored Fish, Kung Pao Chicken, Thunder Spirit Beef Steak, Hundred Flower Spirit Fruit Juice, and Clear Spring Secret Realm Baby Cabbage.]

[Black Sun: ???]

[Hei Yang: No, weren't you caught in a staged accident scam and about to go bankrupt? How come you're suddenly eating so lavishly?]

[Hei Yang: Wait, you didn't join their gang and go along to stage accidents for extortion, did you?]

[Hei Yang: Li, listen to your brother's advice, let's not take this kind of dirty money!]

[Hei Yang: Once you enter this line of work, there's no turning back. Money comes quickly, but life doesn't come quickly either.]

[Hongli: Crawl, crawl, crawl! That was just an accident, the crisis is long gone.]

[Hong Li: I'm in the sect's dining hall right now...]

[Hongli: Haha, I used to eat in the free area, but it's so great to eat these spiritually rich foods now!]

[Hong Li: I feel like I'll be able to break through to the second level of Qi Refining when I get back, and I might even try to reach the third level. It's really worth it!]

[Black Sun: So here's the question: where did you steal the money from?]

[Hei Yang: Could it be that she's being kept by a rich senior brother?]

[Black Sun: In the end, it was all in vain...]

[Hongli: You bastard... I met a kind junior sister, what's wrong with her treating me to a meal?]

[Hei Yang: Kind... junior sister... oh dear, I hope she's alright!]

[Hongli: What do you mean?!]

[Hei Yang: It's nothing, I just wanted to say, can we go easy on them and leave them a way out?]

[Hei Yang: So that's why you haven't eaten for three days—you were waiting here all along!]

[Hongli: Oh dear, am I as bad as you think?]

[Hongli: This wasn't premeditated, it was really just a coincidence. We just happened to run into each other, so...]

[Hei Yang: Tsk tsk, what an unlucky kid.]

[Hei Yang: Don't misunderstand, I was saying that my poor junior sister is incredibly unlucky to have met you.]

[Hongli: ???]

[Hongli: So, you regret meeting me?]

[Black Sun: ...]

"Grass!"

Warning: This is a potentially fatal question!

[Black Sun: That's for sure...]

[Hongli: Hmm?]

[Hei Yang: I definitely won't regret it!]

[Hongli: Hmph.]

[Hong Li: But speaking of which, this so-called cafeteria membership token isn't working either. It only allows you to buy twenty low-grade spirit stones on credit. It really doesn't reflect the prestigious status of a member at all!]

[Hei Yang: No, isn't the point that we could buy on credit, and that you, you scoundrel, found out?]

[Hong Li: I can't hear you, I can't hear you, go eat your hard rations, ha!]

[Black Sun: ...]

Hongli stretched and turned to look at Xingyun. Seeing the child's blank expression, she waved her hand in front of her eyes.

"Oh no, have I messed up the child's brain...?"

"Ah! Stop eating! Stop eating!"

Xingyun suddenly screamed, startling Hongli, but upon closer inspection, she found that the other person's eyes were still unfocused.

"Good heavens, has he become a demon in his heart?"

"Cough cough..."

Hongli pinched Xingyun's cheeks with both hands: "Watch this, Little Li's Soul Summoning Technique!"

Knead and knead, knead and knead...

"Well……"

Xingyun's head was shaken so much by Hongli's coils that it almost swelled up before she came to her senses.

"That's right, that's right. Dad always said that money is just an external thing; out with the new, in with the old!"

Xingyun muttered under her breath, her words growing faster and faster: "That's right, that's right, that's exactly it..."

"Oh ho, it's starting to recover automatically."

Hongli breathed a sigh of relief.

"Senior Sister Hongli, are you finished eating?!"

Xingyun finally came to her senses. Looking at the empty plates on the table, she told herself that it was alright, it was just a matter of taking on a few more jobs!

"Yes, thank you for your hospitality."

Hongli smiled and stood up, brushing the food crumbs off her clothes: "If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

"Oh, take care, Sister Hongli..."

Xingyun grinned foolishly, then waved her hand with a silly grin: "Come visit often in the future!"

"Hey, come often! Xiaoyun, if you ever need anything, remember to mention my name. Remember, my name is Heiyang!"

"Hey? Isn't your name Hong Li? It's written in black and white on the top list that your name is Hong Li."

"That's a nickname!"

Hong Li spouted nonsense: "It's so unimpressive to use my nickname when you're talking about something. Use your full name, Hei Yang, which is much more intimidating!"
