Me and My Two Bosses' Systems

Chapter 149 The 149th Day of Wanting to Be a Lazy Person

"Aunt, Aunt, that's enough, that's enough, that's enough already." Li Xingyu's weak voice struggled to come out from among the pile of pearls, corals, shells, and gems.

The current situation is that Li Xingyu and the others have already had a harmonious and sumptuous lunch, and everyone is now resting in the living room. Yu and Xizi are also planning to go back.

Yu is now reluctantly taking things out of her storage space for Li Xingyu, and the items she takes out have completely overwhelmed Li Xingyu.

"Waaah, this trip was so rushed, I didn't prepare anything nice for you. Consider this a little compensation. I'll pick out some more later. You can come visit me too. Anyway, with Che around, you don't need to worry about breathing underwater." Hearing Li Xingyu's words, Yu was even more eager to give her all the good things in her storage space. She was already planning their next meeting.

"Aunt Yu, this is already very good. And since you've already given me so many things, consider this a return gift." Li Xingyu struggled to emerge from a small mountain of all sorts of strange and beautiful things, which was much taller than her, and then began to take things out of her storage space.

"Wow~ Little Feather, I really want you to come back with me, sob sob, but Sister Shihan and the others definitely won't agree. You're so kind." Yu looked at the pile of snacks and food that Li Xingyu took out from her storage space, and was moved to tears.

What she gave Little Feather were just common things from the seabed, and some of the pearls were just tears of different colors collected from the merfolk in her family. They weren't anything particularly precious, but Little Feather gave him back so much delicious food, which really touched the merfolk.

The above is Yu's thought after seeing what Li Xingyu took out of the storage space. She then hugged Li Xingyu from the side as she was still taking things out of the storage space. It was a gesture that could express her current excitement, but at the same time it would not prevent Li Xingyu from taking things out of the storage space.

In fact, Li Xingyu had the same idea as Yu. She felt that it was a bit stingy to only be able to give back these things, but these were the only things in her storage space that were suitable as return gifts. The others were either gifts from her family or things that she could only use herself.

Both of them felt they had taken advantage of the other and felt quite guilty about it.

The others knew that the gifts the two were exchanging were not easy to obtain, but this was within the entire interstellar space. However, watching the two nervously exchanging gifts, they chuckled and said that such a situation was rare, so let them observe a little longer.

It is common knowledge that mermaids' tears turn into pearls, but the tears they shed under different emotions will also produce pearls of different colors. The pearls that Yu took out are not only beautiful in shape, but also come in a variety of colors, which is not something that can be found easily.

Li Xingyu possesses the best culinary skills in the intergalactic world and has the most imaginative ideas about food. The food she makes is uniquely delicious and sought after in the intergalactic world, not to mention the wide variety of dishes she makes.

However, neither of them usually gives gifts to others. Yu's partner is in charge of this, and she is just a decorative figure, since her partner represents her.

Li Xingyu, on the other hand, is still young and has her parents taking care of things, so she doesn't need to worry about giving gifts. Besides, she doesn't have any close friends, and given her family background, she usually receives gifts from others, so she has no experience, whether in the past or now.

The others had some basic knowledge of the subject, and Yu must have learned about it in school, but right now she was completely focused on Li Xingyu. School knowledge? What was that? Whatever! Little Feather is so cute, hehe~ She even gave me so many delicious things; she must really like me, her aunt, hehehe~

"Yu, Little Feather, it's almost time. Have you two finished delivering them?" Qin Fengshi's smiling voice rang in Li Xingyu and Yu's ears, interrupting Yu's one-sided affection and reluctance to part with Li Xingyu.

Don't expect Li Xingyu to understand the emotion of parting or empathize with it. Right now, she simply feels that the other party has given her too many things, and they are all quite valuable. She doesn't know how to reciprocate, and her feelings are a little complicated and hard to explain.

"Little Feather, you should put all these things away. You can tell your aunt if you want anything in the future. Your aunt is very capable. If all else fails, you still have your uncle and the others." Yu hugged Li Xingyu in her arms, rubbed her face against her cheek, pointed to the mountain of items she had given Li Xingyu, looked sullen, and then became proud and confident.

In fact, the gifts Li Xingyu gave back to Yu were no less than the ones she gave, but they weren't suitable to be piled up like that. They were neatly placed on the coffee table and in Xi Zi's hands. They were placed in his hands because there wasn't enough room on the coffee table.

"Thank you, Xingyu. I'll leave Che to you. You're also welcome to visit Biyue Star. We can provide you with any assistance you need to go anywhere." Xi Zi gave Li Xingyu a somewhat stiff smile. It was clear that he didn't smile often, and this smile looked rather fierce.

"Ah...haha, thank you, Uncle. I'll come if I have the chance. This is for you too." Li Xingyu looked at the stiff smile on Xi Zi's face, and was confused for a moment. Then, feeling the friendliness and kindness emanating from the other party, he laughed twice to ease his mood. Then, he took out a handful of candied hawthorns from his storage space and stuffed them into Xi Zi's hand.

"Oh, thank you, little feather. Do you like ores and beast cores?" The rhinoceros was instantly softened by Li Xingyu's smile. They didn't have any girls, so they weren't very good at getting along with female cubs. Before this, they hadn't approached Li Xingyu because of their appearance and aura, and had only exchanged greetings at the beginning.

Yu's enthusiastic attitude towards Li Xingyu more or less influenced Xi Zi. In addition, he originally liked cubs, but due to his overly sharp appearance and the aura he had cultivated in battle, he was not very popular with the cubs. Whether they were female or male cubs, they were already very grateful if they didn't cry when they saw him.

Before Li Xingyu could answer, Xi Zi had already taken out a bunch of colorful, rhomboid beast cores, each about a third the size of Li Xingyu's fist, from his storage space and placed them in front of Li Xingyu.

"Wow~ It looks so good." Li Xingyu also had a lot of exotic beast cores in her space, which were mostly gifts from her great-grandmother, grandmother, grandfather, mother, father and brothers.

Li Xinghua had significantly more beast cores than Li Xingyu, because the latter preferred the shiny ones. So, Yin Lian's brother-in-law and the others gave most of their beast cores to Li Xinghua.

Moreover, whenever Li Xinghua and Li Xingyu do not see each other for a long time, Li Xinghua will give Li Xingyu a lot of sparkly items when they part ways or meet again.

The beast cores in the hands of Li Manzhou and his group basically represent all types and levels of beasts. They are also proof of their conquests and defense of their homeland, and their commemorative significance is much greater than their practical significance.

Beast cores are the source of energy for beasts. One beast core is equivalent to one beast. Every level of beast has a beast core, but the size and color will change with the level. The ones in Xi Zi's hand and most of the ones in Li Xingyu's storage space are S-level beast cores.

The levels of alien beasts are similar to those of humans, except that the highest level is only S and the lowest level is D. However, the strength of alien beasts is higher than that of humans. The strength of S-level alien beasts is about the same as that of god-level mental power users and ability users.

The energy within the Beast Core is very stable and has many uses:

They can be made into jewelry and worn on the body. One reason is that the beast cores are indeed very beautiful, crystal clear and colorful, and another reason is that the energy contained in the beast cores can enhance the body and abilities of those with spiritual power and those with other abilities.

It can be used directly as an energy source. The higher the level of the alien beast core, the more energy it contains. In interstellar space, energy generated from burning waste can now be used, and alien beast cores, which contain abundant energy, are used even more frequently.

You can also ask a blacksmith to forge weapons or some high-tech products using the cores of exotic beasts...

"Here, take them all. These are the only things in my storage space that are suitable to give away. The rest are basically not suitable for cubs to play with." Xi Zi gently pulled up Li Xingyu's wrist, making her open her palm upwards.

Li Xingyu noticed Xi Zi's purpose and glanced questioningly at Li Shihan and Mo Lichen, since they were the closest to her. Li Shihan and Mo Lichen smiled and nodded at Li Xingyu.

When Yu and Xizi set off, the Li family will prepare a return gift, which is a basic courtesy for entertaining guests. It's fine for Li Xingyu to accept these now, as it will make Yu and Xizi happy. She can just take more when she returns the gift later.

When Yu and Xizi came, they also brought gifts. These etiquettes still need to be observed, not only because of etiquette, but also because of their relationship.

"Yes, thank you, Uncle." The exchange of glances between Li Xingyu and Li Shihan was only for a moment, and Xi Zi's strength was very gentle. Li Xingyu's movements were also somewhat slow and hesitant, but this did not hinder her from speeding up the opening of her hands.

The few beast cores that Xi Zi had in his hands were so numerous that Li Xingyu couldn't even hold as many as Xi Zi's two hands together.

Then Xizi waved to Xinghe and Che, signaling them to come closer.

Xinghe and Che were a little confused, but they still walked over to Xizi and Li Xingyu.

Before Xinghe and Che could speak, Xizi took out two... sacks? from his storage space and handed one to each of them.

"Dad, isn't this a bit too much?" Che almost made intimate contact with the living room floor from the weight of the two sacks full of things, and his voice was strained as he spoke.

"Hmm... Uncle Xizi, isn't this too much?" Xinghe said, carrying a heavy sack in his hand, but his expression revealed a hint of satisfaction.

Who would complain about having too much money and gold?

Yes, beast cores can be considered a form of currency and fixed asset. After all, energy is always important, and it's usually linked to money. Sometimes, even if you have money, you can't buy high-level beast cores.

"Hiss~ Uncle Xizi, isn't this too much?" Li Xingyu heard Xinghe and Che's words and realized what was in the sack. He immediately gasped. These things were enough to buy several houses in Jingzhou and Yangzhou. They were too valuable.

"It's alright, it's not much at all. I have plenty more in my storage space. Little Feather, here you go too. You can ask Senior Foxy and Mr. Star River to make something for you." Xi Zi took out two more burlap sacks from his storage space that looked exactly like the ones from before.

"Hmm...isn't that too much?" Even though Mo Lichen and the others had seen many good things and had quite a few of these kinds of items in their own storage spaces, they gave them to Li Xingyu without batting an eye. This made them feel a strange sense of crisis, as if the other party wanted to kidnap their little feather.

"Not much, not much. Little Feather deserves all of this. I still think it's not enough. Little Feather deserves the best in the interstellar space." Xi Zi shook his head seriously, and judging from his hand movements, he also seemed to be thinking of taking something out of his storage space.

“Oh, Uncle Xizi, you don’t need so much. You can keep some for Aunt Yu. Besides, you’ve already given me the best.” Li Xingyu placed the beast core she was holding on the sofa next to her, took Xizi’s large, rough, calloused hand, and said with a smile.

Li Xingyu knew some of Xi Zi and Yu's thoughts. Part of it was because of Che, and also because they genuinely liked her and wanted to give her all the good things. However, she didn't lack anything. She accepted Yu and Xi Zi's gifts because she knew their good intentions. But if she gave them more, she would feel guilty and would feel like she was betraying their kindness.

"Hmm? But so far, the things Yu and I have given you are all very common and not precious." Xi Zi gave a puzzled "hmm," his expression showing some confusion and doubt.

If ordinary citizens heard Xi Zi's words, they would definitely accuse him of showing off his wealth. However, within the Li family, his words seemed perfectly normal. Everyone nodded in agreement, while also expressing their doubts about Li Xingyu's words.

They didn't say it out loud, but their expressions and gestures clearly conveyed their thoughts. Li Xingyu had seen and owned the best things since she was a child, but she still acted like a normal person.
