Me and My Two Bosses' Systems

"It seems they've been watching us sleep for an hour and a half. Is the mental energy fluctuation I emit when I'm sleeping really that hypnotic?" Li Xingyu asked the three people next to her who were moving around, somewhat uncertainly.

"Yes, it really felt like I slept very well, and I felt very comfortable when I woke up." Xinghe nodded.

"Oh, I see. But where has everyone gone? It's almost dinner time, isn't it?" Li Xingyu tilted her head, somewhat puzzled.

"Hmm... they probably didn't want to disturb us, so they went somewhere else. We can tidy up first, and then we can go to the restaurant to take a look." Tian Shu rubbed his hair, which was a little messy from sleeping. While he was asleep, he vaguely felt several different auras approaching them for a while, and then they left quickly.

I suppose he probably covered them with blankets and, seeing them sleeping, felt a little uneasy and wanted to check on them.

They were sleeping so comfortably that, although they noticed, they didn't pay attention. Subconsciously, they felt that this place was safe and that they could rest assured.

"Hmm? Tian Shu, your hair is all messy from sleeping. I can't really see Xing Yu and Xing He's long hair." Li Yue yawned, rubbed her eyes, looked at Tian Shu after hearing his words, and then observed Li Xing Yu and Xing He.

"Hmm? Then I'll go back to my room and tidy myself up first. Little Star, you guys can do whatever you want." Tian Shu took his hand off his head after hearing Li Yue's words. His face was a little red. He nodded to Li Xingyu and the others and went upstairs. His steps were hurried, and his back revealed a shy look.

"Then I'll go to the kitchen first and see how things are going with Brother-in-law Yinlian and the others." Li Xingyu ran her fingers through her hair. Bai Xi was nowhere to be seen. She stroked Haoyue and Xiao Hei, who were lying on the sofa, and smiled at Xinghe and Liyue.

"Okay, Little Feather, go ahead. I'll tidy up the sofa area first." Xinghe bent down to straighten the thin blanket that had been covering them, and Liyue reached out to help.

"Xinghe and I will tidy up together." Li Yue smiled shyly and charmingly at Li Xingyu while helping Xinghe tidy up the thin blanket and cushions on the sofa. Her nine big tails swayed behind her, raising elegant arcs.

"Okay, I'll head over now. You guys come back for dinner when it's time." Li Xingyu nodded to indicate that she understood, then turned and slowly walked towards the kitchen, her pink skirt fluttering, the butterflies printed on it seeming as if they were about to fly off.

As soon as Li Xingyu entered the restaurant, she saw Qin Fengshi, Xifeier, and Si Zian sitting in chairs: "Grandpa, Grandpa Xifeier, Grandpa Zian, you've come to see my brother-in-law and the others prepare dinner?"

"Little Feather, you're awake? Your mental energy fluctuations when you're asleep are really hypnotic. We felt sleepy after less than ten minutes over there." Li Xingyu didn't deliberately conceal her aura, mental energy fluctuations, or footsteps, so Qin Fengshi and the others could easily tell who it was.

It was Qin Feng who spoke. He waved to Li Xingyu to come and sit down: "Then we thought that it was the first time Yin Lian and the others had cooked for themselves, so we came over here to take a look."

Li Xingyu walked over and sat down between Xifeier and Qin Fengshi. There was an empty seat between them, which was the seat Qin Fengshi had just indicated. It was probably left unintentionally when they sat down.

"I was also looking forward to seeing what Yinlian and her husband had accomplished, so after waking up and moving around a bit, I thought I'd come and check it out." Li Xingyu has grown taller and can now sit on a chair quite easily, although her feet still can't touch the ground when she sits down, but it's much better than before.

"Not bad, our little feather has grown quite a bit taller since it fully awakened." Qin Fengshi watched Li Xingyu's movements without making any other move. After she sat down, he smiled and patted her head, his tone full of emotion and satisfaction.

Li Xingyu raised her chin slightly: "That's right, I've grown almost 30cm taller."

"Any other changes? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" This time it was Xifeier who spoke, her tone gentle, and she also raised her hand to rub Li Xingyu's head.

Accompanying Li Xingyu to the restaurant were two floating spheres that were live-streaming. Among the viewers in the two live-streaming rooms were Qin Fengshi and Xifeier's former subordinates and colleagues, who were now getting goosebumps.

When had they ever seen two people who were once so shrewd and ruthless speak so gently, their movements so restrained, as if afraid of accidentally using too much force?

Well, if their little granddaughter were as well-behaved, cute, and sensible as Prince Li Xingyu... and sweetly called him Grandpa, their tone and actions would only be even gentler and more doting.

Qin Fengshi and Xifeier didn't care what their former subordinates and colleagues were thinking. They were all retired anyway, so why should they care? Wasn't their granddaughter cute? Wasn't she well-behaved? Wasn't she sweet? Why should they care about those old men?

"Yes, because when I fully awakened, I accidentally absorbed some of Bai Xi's energy, which changed the color of my hair. That's all." Li Xingyu picked up her hair that was hanging down her back and showed the ends of her hair to Qin Fengshi and the other two.

"Bai Xi said that this energy is not harmful, but we will only know its other uses after he comes of age and absorbs the inherited memories of his race." Li Xingyu took out a piece of pure black paper, about 30cm on each side, from her storage space and placed it on the dining table in front of her, so that her hair color could provide a contrast and make it easier for them to observe.

"Oh, that's alright then. The color isn't too flashy. If Xiao Yu really doesn't want it back, ask Bai Xi if there's any way to change it back to its original color." Qin Fengshi and the others observed carefully and comforted Li Xingyu, because they knew that Li Xingyu didn't like her hair being multicolored.

It's described as having bluish-purple hair ends, but you can hardly notice it unless you look closely, because the blue and purple colors are quite deep, and the tiny shimmering gold and silver starlight is even harder to see with the naked eye.

If Li Xingyu hadn't used a black wooden comb when she was combing her hair, she wouldn't have noticed it either. Now, Qin Fengshi and the others were able to quickly observe the twinkling lights because of the black contrast and prominence on the pure black paper.

"That's all we can do for now. The only consolation is that the color is darker and the light is weaker." Li Xingyu brushed her hair back and nodded in agreement with Qin Fengshi's words.

"Little Feather, do you want to go into the kitchen and take a look?" Si Zian had been observing Li Xingyu the whole time. Apart from calling Li Xingyu's name when she came over, she hadn't said anything. Now she was looking at her expectantly.

"Hmm, I'm still a little curious about what the dishes will be for dinner tonight. I wonder how far my brother-in-law and the others have progressed in their studies? I'm planning to check." Li Xingyu nodded and folded the square piece of black paper she had taken out into the shape of a snowflake.

This kind of paper is what she keeps in her storage space specifically for origami. The paper is very thin and not easily torn. After folding it into the shape of a snowflake, you can see the varying shades of texture when you look at it in the light.

Li Xingyu had always enjoyed folding fancy things, and she was still quite skilled at it. Her fingers flew, and the paper obeyed her every move. In no time, a black snowflake appeared in her hand.

"Hmm, it's really beautiful. I'm still as good as ever." Li Xingyu admired the snowflake she had folded under the light for a while.

Because Li Xingyu held it quite high, the other three people sitting together also saw it. Upon hearing her words, they couldn't help but smile and nod. Little Feather was indeed skillful.

"Oh right, this is for you." Li Xingyu suddenly remembered that she still had some clay figurines she had made in her storage space, which she had forgotten to give away yesterday, but now she suddenly remembered them.

"Hmm? Are these the clay figures you sculpted yesterday in our respective images?" Hiffel looked at the three clay figures on the table that looked just like them, his tone somewhat surprised. They were sculpted so realistically, they were practically scaled-down versions of each other.

"Hmm, doesn't it look a lot like you guys?" Li Xingyu fiddled with the folded snowflakes in her hands, looking at Xifeier and the others' surprised expressions, her tone somewhat arrogant.

"Little Feather is amazing! It's not just similar, it's practically identical." Si Zian lay down in front of the clay figure, observing it with great curiosity. He couldn't help but poke the clay figure with his finger, pushing it further away.

Qin Fengshi held the clay figure in his hand, carefully turning it over and over to examine it several times before finally praising it: "As expected of our Little Feather, this craftsmanship is truly amazing. It not only captures our appearance but also our temperament, and it's perfect."

"Hehe, Grandpas, you flatter me, you flatter me. I'm going to see what delicious food my brother-in-law and the others have made. You can make yourselves at home." Li Xingyu pinched the folded snowflake to cover her mouth and raised a smile, revealing only her bright golden eyes that were curved in a smile.

"Little Feather, do you have any more of this kind of paper? You think this snowflake is pretty, I want to try it." Qin Fengshi watched Li Xingyu's actions, his gaze lingering on the snowflake in her hand.

“Yes, I have many different colors. Grandpa Xifeier and Grandpa Zian, would you like to try them too?” Li Xingyu nodded. She found these while organizing her storage space. They bought them specifically for origami when they had origami classes in school, and they had quite a few different colors.

Xifeier and Si Zian looked at the snowflake in Li Xingyu's hand and nodded.

"Here you go, I'm going to the kitchen." Li Xingyu took a few sheets of each color of paper and stacked them on the table in a pile about half a centimeter thick.

"Hmm, the steps aren't too difficult. We've already memorized them. You can go ahead now." Qin Fengshi picked up a pink square piece of paper from the top and was stroking it, looking at it. This was an unconscious action of his, clearly recalling the origami steps he had just seen.

“Okay.” Li Xingyu got off the chair and walked towards the kitchen, which was filled with enticing aromas, with the two floating spheres following closely behind her.

Yin Lian and the others had already finished several, and were about halfway through the next steps, just when the aroma of the food was being released.

Li Xingyu sniffed slightly and could basically tell what they had cooked: "Hmm~ stewed goose, braised pork ribs, squirrel-shaped mandarin fish, cumin lamb, roast duck, pumpkin, greens, and chili peppers. It's going to be a sumptuous dinner."

"Little Feather's nose is really sharp! She can smell what we've made!" Miles, who was closest to Li Xingyu, had just finished packing a dish. He heard every word Li Xingyu said and praised her with a smile as he turned around and put the dish on the counter.

Since Li Xingyu and the others realized the function of the time stop device, they installed a time stop device on the cooking counter that could cover the entire counter. Of course, the range is adjustable. If some things need to be marinated, using the time stop device will only have the opposite effect.

"Hehe, it's not that amazing. I can still see some of it." Li Xingyu followed Miles to the kitchen counter, where five or six dishes were already laid out. She had only smelled a portion of them, since the dishes she had described had very strong and distinct flavors.

There are also some dishes that don't have much flavor, or have a very faint flavor. It's not that they taste bad or unpleasant, but they are easily masked by other flavors.

"Our Princess Xingyu, would you like to try it and give your feedback? Let's see how we've learned?" As soon as Li Xingyu walked to the cooking station, Miles handed her a pair of clean chopsticks, a mischievous smile on his face, revealing a sharp tooth, his tail swaying restlessly behind him.

“Since you’ve made this request, then I’ll offer my comments.” Li Xingyu raised her chin slightly, extended one hand towards Miles.

"Alright, Your Highness Xingyu, please~" Miles wore an exaggerated, fawning smile and bent down slightly to place the chopsticks in his hand on Li Xingyu's slumped hand.

Li Xingyu took the chopsticks, glanced at Miles with half-closed eyes, and then focused her gaze on the dishes on the counter, picking up a piece of braised pork ribs that was closest to her.

Before putting the ribs into her mouth, Li Xingyu first examined their color and size. They were bright red and covered in a reddish-brown sauce. The caramel color looked good, and the proportions of the seasonings were also quite accurate.

I checked the size of the ribs again, and visually they were almost identical to those on the plate, since I had selected middle ribs, some of which even had a piece of white cartilage attached, making comparison very easy.

Then Li Xingyu took a small bowl and placed it under the ribs. He let the broth drip onto the countertop or the floor, took a small bite of the meat on the ribs, and found it juicy, tender, and savory.
