Me and My Two Bosses' Systems

Chapter 161 The 161th Day of Wanting to Be a Lazy Person

"Ah~ I finally got all my hair down, and my head feels so much lighter. Time to wash my hair, take a shower, and go to sleep." Li Xingyu breathed a sigh of relief after taking all her hair down, and massaged her scalp as she walked towards the bathroom.

Although taking off her hair was a little difficult and troublesome, Li Xingyu didn't think that she wouldn't do her hair next time she wore Hanfu. This was the least she could do when wearing Hanfu.

"I'll stick to simpler, easier-to-remove hairstyles from now on. This one looks nice, but it's really hard to take it off~." Li Xingyu muttered as she lay down on her bed after washing and showering her hair and drying it.

After practicing star network construction for a while, Li Xingyu happily opened the novel file and began reading.

To keep herself fresh and curious, after learning that she had collected a considerable amount of energy, Li Xingyu asked Qingyao and Hanqing to use their energy to directly materialize novels, comics, variety shows, TV series, and the like into her StarNet space.

Although Qingyao and Hanqing had stated from the beginning that the energy could be used freely, Li Xingyu still asked them after a considerable amount of time if she could collect some energy herself, or energy generated through her actions.

After all, he was live-streaming and so many people were watching. If he kept using Qingyao and Hanqing's energy points, Li Xingyu felt like he was taking advantage of them for nothing, even though he had already taken a lot.

Although one can materialize things using mental power, everything materialized in the StarNet space is imprinted in the mind, which is really too much of a sensory overload and offers no enjoyment whatsoever.

'Xiao Xingyu, it's late, you should rest. There's a lot to do tomorrow.' Qingyao glanced at Li Xingyu when she heard their alarm clock ring.

To prevent herself from becoming too engrossed in entertainment, Li Xingyu asked Qingyao and Hanqing and learned that they didn't need to sleep. She then asked them to help supervise her to maintain a regular schedule.

Perhaps due to the effects on her body and the fusion of memories, Li Xingyu's self-control seems to have weakened considerably. Several times before, she stayed up until after midnight, a rare occurrence for her.

Qingyao and Hanqing were overjoyed to agree. The feeling of raising a daughter was simply wonderful, especially since it was a favor they were asked to do. The two systems took it even more seriously and set several alarms with notes on them.

Li Xingyu is the kind of person who needs some supervision; otherwise, she is prone to procrastination and will put things off until she can no longer hold on or until the deadline has passed.

"Is it already 11:30? It doesn't feel like much time has passed." Li Xingyu's novel on her personal computer screen had just reached the end of a chapter. After reading the remaining two pages and turning to the first page of the next chapter, she exited the novel interface.

After glancing at the message notifications on the chat interface, Li Xingyu replied to the messages she hadn't had time to reply to before turning off the personal computer, placing it on the bedside table, tucking the blankets in, saying goodnight to Qingyao and Hanqing, and preparing to sleep.

Have a good night's sleep.

The next morning, Li Xingyu woke up naturally at seven o'clock. She didn't know why, but she probably had developed a biological clock. Although there was a time difference of about half an hour, it was almost there.

"Hmm~ Summer is the best. Apart from being too hot, there are no other problems." Li Xingyu stretched, pulled the blanket off her legs, tidied herself up a bit, and got up to wash up.

"However, the heat has its advantages. I just don't really want to go out. I'm going to process some medicinal herbs today, so I'd better dress simply and comfortably." Li Xingyu muttered to herself as she changed into a white printed T-shirt and black chiffon wide-leg pants, along with white casual shoes with sky blue accents.

She combed her hair but didn't tie it up. She could just use a hairpin to hold it up when she was working. Li Xingyu had a whole bunch of hairpins in her storage space, all kinds of them, so she wasn't worried that her hair would get in the way.

Furthermore, because Li Xingyu's hair length has increased due to her complete awakening, and its color has changed due to absorbing Bai Xi's energy during her complete awakening, cutting her hair now will immediately revert it to its original state and will also consume some of her mental energy.

Li Xingyu felt there was absolutely no need for it, and she also really liked long hair because she could create many beautiful styles, so she had no intention of cutting her hair.

"Good morning~ Tanuki, Nar, Cain, did you rest well yesterday?" Li Xingyu walked into the living room on the third floor and saw Tanuki, Yufinar and Cain chatting enthusiastically. She greeted them with a smile.

The sofa where Li Yue and the others were sitting had their backs to the room's corridor. At home, they didn't stay on high alert or let their senses wander. Since there was no danger, it was fine to relax a bit; they might even receive some unexpected surprises.

"Good morning, Little Star. You rested well as always yesterday." Li Yue always waited for Li Xingyu here before, and they would always chat for a while in the morning. She turned around with a relaxed expression and a bright smile on her face.

"Good morning, Xingyu. You had a good rest yesterday. We were chatting after our workout when Li Yue said he was waiting for you here, so we stayed too." Yu Fenal turned around after hearing Li Xingyu's voice, scratched his head a little shyly, and the tips of his ears, hidden in his black hair, turned slightly red.

"Good morning, Xingyu... You rested very well yesterday..." Cain was already sitting slightly to the side. After hearing Li Xingyu's voice, he turned his head slightly to look at Li Xingyu who was walking towards them. His blood-red pupils involuntarily contracted, and then he smiled and responded to Li Xingyu.

"Wow~ You three look very handsome today. There's no rush. Shall we chat for a while?" Li Xingyu walked up to Li Yue, You Fennar, and Cain, and after seeing their outfits, she couldn't help but praise them.

Because they had discussed it yesterday, they were all dressed simply and comfortably today, which only accentuated their outstanding looks and demeanor.

Li Yue's increasingly abundant wardrobe allowed him to dress more variedly. Unlike yesterday's formal suit and tie, today he wore a gray tracksuit with white stripes. The zipper of his shirt was not zipped up, revealing a white undershirt underneath. His long, pink-white gradient hair that reached his waist was neatly tied back, and his fluffy ears were still visible on top of his head.

Yufinal was also wearing a black T-shirt and white shorts for easy movement, revealing her fair-skinned, well-proportioned calves. She wore a pair of silver-gray sneakers, and her long black hair, reaching her ankles, was braided into a thick braid that hung down her shoulders, tied at the end with a light blue ribbon that was tied into a delicate bow. The succubus's small pointed horns and inverted heart-shaped tail were also visible.

Cain wore a white shirt with silver batwing trim and piping at the collar, paired with crisp black suit trousers and black casual leather shoes. His black wolf-tail hair cascaded over his shoulders, and his sharp teeth were faintly visible as he spoke.

"Let's go downstairs first, then we can chat in the living room on the first floor for a while. Xinghe, Tianshu, Grandpa Ryan, and Grandpa Fengshi are in the kitchen preparing breakfast. It's better to go downstairs first." Li Yue didn't show her tail today. She was used to hugging her own tail, and now she felt like something was missing. So she pulled out the cushion she was leaning against and hugged it to her chest.

In fact, the Li family, including Xinghe and the others, get up every morning to exercise and then get themselves ready before preparing breakfast. Now, Liyue and the others have finished exercising and gotten themselves ready. They asked Xinghe and the others if they needed any help, and only after receiving a negative answer did they start chatting here.

Li Xingyu was aware of this, but she couldn't get up easily, and her body's main energy was currently being used for growth, so she wasn't suited for intense training.

However, every morning, Li Xingyu would practice Baduanjin and Tai Chi twice, about half an hour before breakfast, to get some exercise. This was a form of training that her elders approved of; otherwise, she definitely wouldn't get up at seven o'clock.

When Li Manzhou and his group exercised in the morning, they would first practice Baduanjin and Tai Chi on both sides before starting their individual training, which included, but was not limited to, physical fitness, combat skills, and weapon handling...

Li Xingyu can only learn some physical fitness skills now. Of course, this is what Li Manzhou and the others have seen. In fact, Li Xingyu takes time every day to practice martial arts, which everyone else knows, but they don't really pay attention to it.

“Okay, let’s go downstairs then. I guess we have a lot to do today, so let’s eat more.” Li Xingyu nodded. She hadn’t been sitting on the sofa to begin with, so it was just a matter of turning around.

Li Yue stood up and walked towards Li Xingyu, her ears twitching twice, her face full of anticipation.

"Pfft, let's go." Li Xingyu couldn't help but laugh out loud. He raised one of his hands, palm up, and opened it to Li Yue. He gently took Li Yue's hand and then nodded to Yu Fenar and Cain, who were watching them.

As Yufinal and Cain watched Li Xingyu and Li Yue's actions, it was impossible for them not to feel envious; their faces genuinely showed expressions of envy.

"Hmm? You want to hold hands too? But I only have one free hand. Can one person hold the mental tentacle?" Li Xingyu looked at the expectant looks on Yufinal and Cain's eyes, tilted his head and thought for a moment before speaking to the two who had already stood up.

Li Xingyu was quite patient with her friends whom she had just met yesterday and who she had a good impression of. She was still curious about Yufinal, Che, and Cain and didn't mind holding their hands as they went down the stairs.

But since one hand is already holding Tanuki's hand, only the other hand is left. Should one hand hold both, or neither?

When asked about holding hands, Li Xingyu stated that she is not Nezha now and does not have six arms.

But if I don't hold her hand, it feels like I'm being treated differently, only holding her hand for the ones who spend more time with her, which isn't good for our future relationship.

Then, Li Xingyu had a flash of inspiration and remembered that he could still condense mental energy tentacles. Because he hadn't used them for a while, he had almost forgotten that he still had them.

Isn't this a perfect coincidence? Even if there are many people in the future—more than two, I mean—she won't have to worry about not being able to reach one. Li Xingyu gave herself a thumbs up for her cleverness and then released a golden, semi-transparent tentacle of mental energy.

"Hmm? I haven't observed it closely for a while, but why do I feel that my mental energy tentacles have gotten thicker and longer?" As soon as Li Xingyu released his mental energy tentacles, he immediately noticed the changes in them.

“Indeed, but this also proves that Little Star has become more powerful. These thicker and longer mental tentacles are the best proof.” Tian Shu observed carefully and found that there were indeed some changes compared to the last time he saw it, but they were all for the better.

"Hey~ Nar and Cain, do you want to hold hands? My mental tentacles feel pretty good too, or maybe you don't want to hold hands with either of them?" Li Xingyu looked at the two who were clearly stunned, and waved his mental tentacles in front of them to bring their attention back.

Euphemiah and Cain exchanged a glance, confirming each other's thoughts, and then revealed satisfied expressions. Their exchange of glances went as follows:

Hidden: <Nar, which one do you want to hold?>

Er: <I don't know, Xingyu is so gentle, but I'm still a little shy about holding his mental tentacles and stuff.>

Yin: <You're still young, it's normal to be shy. How about I tell Xingyu that I'm using my spiritual tentacles?>

Er: <(? ???w??? ?) Hmm.>

As mentioned above, even vampires who value etiquette never refuse contact with their guardians, and even secretly seek benefits for themselves. Although they hold hands, there is still a slight difference between a hand and a mental tentacle, though it is not significant.

Both Euphemia and Cain tacitly ignored Li Xingyu's subsequent statement that he wouldn't touch her hand. Of course, how could he not touch her hand? How could he refuse such a generous offer?

"Star Feather, may I hold your psychic tentacles?" Although his ears, hidden in his hair, were bright red, Cain's voice and tone remained as calm and elegant as ever.

"?" Li Xingyu glanced at You Fenar, asking for his opinion with his eyes. If he also wanted to hold hands, they could let one out. Holding hands was also an option.

Yufinal didn't speak, or rather, he didn't know what to say. He could only blush, lower his head shyly, walk up to Li Xingyu, tug at her clothes, and then slowly but firmly place his hand on Li Xingyu's outstretched hand in front of him.
