Me and My Two Bosses' Systems

"Crack~"

With a crispy sound, the aroma of fried chicken instantly filled the restaurant, tantalizing everyone's sense of smell.

Yes, this commotion was made by Li Xingyu.

The main problem was that the ten of them stared at each other for almost a minute, and Xinghe and the others didn't move at all, which left Li Xingyu a bit confused.

After looking around, Li Xingyu realized that she was the only woman at home, and everyone present was of the same generation, so she had to start eating first.

After realizing what had happened, Li Xingyu felt embarrassed. After looking around at the nine people around her again, she hesitated slightly before picking up a fried chicken wing and taking a small bite.

It wasn't that Li Xingyu didn't want to take a big bite; it was just that the fried chicken had just come out of the fryer, and she still wanted some.

As it turns out, Li Xingyu's reaction was absolutely correct; Xinghe and the others were just waiting for her to start eating.

The main reason is that when Li Xingyu ate at home before, there were usually elders present, so she didn't have to worry about that.

In addition, Xinghe was feeling a bit uneasy and expectant. Although he urged her to eat, Li Xingyu thought it was his first time making fried chicken and he wanted to know her opinion.

Of course, Xinghe also had this idea.

"Yes, the skin is evenly colored and has a crispy, caramelized texture. The chicken skin and meat are smooth and tender, and the juices are well locked in. The taste is also sweet and delicious."

"You guys are really amazing! The taste and texture of fried chicken are amazing for your first time making it." Li Xingyu swallowed the food in her mouth and gave her comments under the somewhat apprehensive and expectant expressions of Xinghe and the others.

The main reason was that Xinghe's thoughts kept flooding Li Xingyu's mind, and looking at their expectant expressions, it was clear that he simply couldn't refuse.

Hearing Li Xingyu's words, Xinghe and the others breathed a sigh of relief. Although they were quite confident in their cooking skills, they still felt somewhat nervous and apprehensive in front of Li Xingyu, who was teaching them how to cook.

"Alright, eat up, it tastes great, but... I seem to have forgotten something, what is it? *crunch*" Li Xingyu looked at Xin and the others who were relieved and urged them to try it as well.

"Hmm? Little Feather, is something the matter?" Xinghe sat next to Li Xingyu and heard her muttering to herself.

"Huh? It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered that this fried chicken tastes better with some dipping sauce." Li Xingyu took a couple of bites of fried chicken before realizing that she had forgotten to make chili powder, ketchup, and cumin powder.

"I see... Little Star, is that dipping sauce difficult to make?" Tian Shu, who was on the other side of Li Xingyu, had heard every word of her conversation with Xinghe and was immediately curious.

Everyone present was sharp-eyed and perceptive, and Li Xingyu and Xinghe's conversation was not concealed; everyone in the restaurant heard it.

"Ah! There are many different dipping sauces, like chili powder, ketchup, cumin powder, mustard, and so on. Chili powder and cumin are quite simple and quick to make."

"I remember I had a few packets of chili powder and cumin powder in my storage space, let me see..." Li Xingyu put the fried chicken that she had only taken a few bites of on the plate in front of her, and put one hand on her storage space where she kept her food.

Everyone's interest was piqued, and the levitating ball floated motionless in front of Li Xingyu.

Although there were quite a lot of things in the storage space, Li Xingyu quickly found what she was looking for by relying on her memory.

"Can you handle spicy food? If not, sprinkle some of this chili powder on top, and then add some cumin."

"If you can eat it, then add whatever you like, but don't add too much, otherwise you won't be able to taste the fried chicken." Li Xingyu held out a small bottle, about the size of her palm, containing powders of different colors.

"As for other dipping sauces, we can make them when we have time." Li Xingyu put the small bottle in her hand on the table and showed Xinghe and the others how to sprinkle them.

This was something Li Xingyu made when she was teaching Yin Lian and the others how to cook, and she had nothing else to do. After she finished cooking, she left a few bottles in the kitchen and put the rest into her storage space.

In other words, Li Xingyu's memory for food is not bad, otherwise, it's hard to say when she would remember that there are still these things in the storage space.

"Sure, but can we start after I finish my holiday homework and the Guardian's required course?" Yufinal's excited voice waned in less than a second, and she even lowered her head slightly, looking a little embarrassed.

It's summer vacation, and I've already finished my regular coursework, so why do I suddenly have to take another course and do a ton of extra homework?!

Xinghe and the others stiffened slightly, paused for a second, and had a subtle look in their eyes, clearly remembering this matter.

After a male is confirmed as a guardian, he needs to study relevant courses for a period of time and achieve a certain score to pass.

If you fail, the relevant personnel in the alliance will continue to supervise your learning until you pass the assessment.

This course isn't too difficult; very few people fail it. It's just a bit tedious, with a slightly larger amount of material to learn, and correspondingly, it won't be short.

"Oh, I see. So you have to attend classes even during holidays?" Li Xingyu didn't know that guardians needed to attend training courses, since this was her first time encountering such a rule.

Seeing Li Xingyu's sympathetic yet puzzled expression, Xinghe and the others helplessly explained the situation to her.

After listening to Xinghe's main presentation and the additional information provided by Tian Shu and the others, Li Xingyu expressed her understanding.

This is not her fault, because women do not need to take courses about guardians. Li Xingyu did not have much contact with men in the past, and there was no need to spread the word about such a quick course, which led to the current situation.

"Oh, I see. Then you all study hard. I'll also read some books and listen to some music." Although Li Xingyu understood, she still felt some sympathy for Xinghe and the others.

These kids who got selected as guardians still have so many classes to take during the summer vacation. They're such poor souls.

Hearing Li Xingyu's voice, which was a mix of sympathy and schadenfreude, Xinghe and the others felt somewhat helpless.

So what can we do besides pass the course test as soon as possible?

Let’s learn.

It's fortunate that it was during the summer vacation; otherwise, in addition to the school courses, I would have to study several more subjects. Even if I had a strong learning ability, I wouldn't really want to bring this up at the dinner table.

"Crack!"

As if to vent his frustration, Elnis crunched on the fried chicken in his hand with a look of indignation, then picked up a roasted chicken leg and sprinkled it with chili powder and cumin.

Oh well, I'll have to learn it all anyway, so learning one more course won't hurt.

Mmm, fried chicken is still the best.

"Crack, click, click..."

Li Xingyu shrugged, looking at Xinghe and the others whose expressions had returned to normal, and lowered her head to eat obediently.

Well, I'd better not say anything, so as not to provoke Xinghe and the others.

The viewers in Li Xingyu's live stream, taking advantage of the fact that Xinghe and the others were eating and couldn't see the comments, unabashedly expressed their schadenfreude, except for a few people who needed to take this course.

At this time of year, almost all schools are on holiday, so the number of people watching the live stream has increased dramatically, and they are all incredibly active.

Li Xingyu and the others finished their dinner in a subtle yet harmonious atmosphere.

Then the ten people began to figure out how to turn the energy ball they had previously gathered in the kitchen into ornaments.

Of course, Xinghe and the others came up with the idea, and Li Xingyu was responsible for trying to make it.

Because only Li Xingyu can turn these beautiful energy balls into ornaments by condensing spiritual energy into items.

As for live streaming.

After finishing her meal, Li Xingyu turned it off. Anyway, the songs she posted all had mental energy fluctuations, so they could be counted as live stream time.

It's fair to say that Li Xingyu can do without live streaming right now.

Why does Li Xingyu still need to do live streams?

One reason is her collaboration with the alliance regarding "passing on memories"; the other is her quirky sense of humor.

Just look at Li Xingyu's live stream schedule and main content; it's all food-related, and almost all of it happens during mealtimes...

One-third of the energy spheres that Li Xingyu and the others condensed were created by ten people working together. Because the colors were quite rich, they even guided the pattern and layout during the condensation process, making it incredibly beautiful.

Finally, Xinghe and the others each received a red rope woven with the energy of only themselves and Li Xingyu, a string of colorful bracelets, and several ball-shaped ornaments with different color schemes.

Li Xingyu's items were no different from Xinghe's, except that he had an extra bracelet with ten different colored energy balls on the red string, the one with a gold base.

"Hmm? Everyone, it's already 10 p.m. Let's talk about anything else tomorrow. It's time to wash up and rest." In the end, it was Xinghe who pulled Li Xingyu and the others out of their excited state.

"Ha~ It's already 10 o'clock? That's getting late. What are the plans for tomorrow? You guys go to class after breakfast, I'll just do whatever I want?" Li Xingyu yawned as she listened to Xinghe's words, glancing at the time on her personal terminal.

The main reason is that Li Xingyu and a few of the others have only recently awakened their abilities and are not yet very confident in their skills. They are also in a novel and exploratory phase, so they are quite enthusiastic.

Although Xinghe and his group have a good grasp of their abilities, it is clear that they are not aiming to create energy balls.

Everyone had a great time.

After Xinghe reminded them, everyone belatedly realized what was happening and calmed themselves down.

"Well, Great-Grandma and the others won't be back for a few more days. What would Little Feather like to eat tomorrow morning?" Xinghe nodded, then turned to ask Li Xingyu.

"Hmm... I'm fine with anything. Is there anything you'd like to eat?" After thinking for a moment, Li Xingyu gave up on Xinghe's question. It was too difficult for her.

Everyone was stumped by the question Li Xingyu threw back at them: what to eat was truly a century-old problem.

"Hmm? What kind of breakfast do you want? I want to eat them all, but there's nothing I particularly crave." Everyone couldn't help but nod in agreement with Euphemia's words.

Li Xingyu wasn't a picky eater, but she was still quite conflicted about what to eat. After hearing what Yu Fenar said and seeing the approving expressions on everyone's faces, she decided to give it a try.

"Is that so? Then... should we take it?" Li Xingyu said, glancing at her personal terminal and then at Xinghe and the others.

Besides Qingqi, Michael, and Elnis, Xinghe, Tianshu, and Liyue all understood Li Xingyu's meaning and decided to start a live stream to see the comments.

Since they had done this before, Li Xingyu and the others thought this method was pretty good. Anyway, they weren't picky eaters, so it should be... right?

After Li Xingyu and Xinghe explained the idea, Qingqi and the other two agreed with it.

"Now that the breakfast problem is solved, I'll go back and wash up and go to bed. You can do as you please." After receiving the answer, Li Xingyu stood up and nodded to Xinghe and the others.

"Okay, Little Feather, go to sleep early, goodnight." Xinghe and the others still had some things to discuss, so they weren't in a hurry to go back to their rooms and all said goodnight to Li Xingyu.

"Okay, goodnight everyone, see you tomorrow." Li Xingyu replied after Xinghe and the others said goodnight, and then walked towards the stairs.

Li Xingyu naturally realized that Xinghe and the others wanted to talk privately, but she didn't dwell on the issue too much. After all, they wouldn't harm her, so it didn't matter.

Li Xingyu slowly returned to her room and went straight to the bathroom to wash up. Although she hadn't done anything today, she still felt a little tired.

“Hehehe~Hehe~…”

Li Xingyu, leaning against the wall, returned to her bed from the bathroom and eagerly lay down on it.

"Ah~ the bed is so comfortable." After rolling around on the bed with the thin blanket for a couple of minutes, Li Xingyu sighed from the bottom of her heart.

"It seems like building StarNet has become easier? Could it be because I practiced every day and artificially increased my proficiency?" Li Xingyu had been trying to build items and some basic single-player games in StarNet space every night.

Today, as usual, Li Xingyu first logged into the StarNet. At first, she didn't feel anything was wrong, but when she started building items, she found it much easier than usual.

"Wow~ It seems my daughter is just around the corner. I wonder what Xinghe and Tianshu think. I'll ask them after they finish this Guardian course." Li Xingyu muttered to herself as she used her mental energy to create a mini-game on the Star Network.

"It's so much easier now. It feels like I've suddenly gained a lot of brainpower, and it's quite a big one at that." Li Xingyu muttered to herself as she imagined exquisite and gorgeous clothes in her mind.

"Click click click~ Add another layer of lace here, tie some accessories on the legs, and make sure the shoes fit the legs and feet. Ah, I'm so envious of my daughter! I feel like she looks good in anything she wears. I'm already looking forward to the day it's released." Li Xingyu used her mental power to conceive of a blue-purple Rococo-style long dress with a huge skirt.
