Me and My Two Bosses' Systems

Chapter 210 The 21th Day of Wanting to Be a Lazy Person

While everyone appeared to be doing their own thing, they were actually listening intently.

The levitating ball subtly moved closer to Li Xingyu and the centipede.

“Shhh. (Oh, these are for trading with other people.)” To Li Xingyu, Wuwu’s tone was full of innocence and self-righteousness.

"Ah... I see." Li Xingyu glanced at the small box on the ground, her expression somewhat subtle.

Actually, everyone could probably guess Wuwu's answer, but it was more or less... well.

The matter ended with the centipede using all four claws to close the box and put it away safely.

Next up is the mukbang segment that everyone loves to watch.

Li Xingyu didn't know whether others liked it or not, but she certainly enjoyed the meal.

The atmosphere in the backyard was warm and joyful, filled with laughter.

"Ugh~ It's too sweet. I really shouldn't drink too much." Li Xingyu took a sip of the sweet fermented rice balls, then her face scrunched up, and she quickly stuffed a mouthful of watermelon into her mouth.

Drinking too much rice wine can make you feel cloyingly sweet. Li Xingyu had just eaten a bowl of sweet rice wine with glutinous rice balls and a bowl of sweet rice wine with eggs, and had only eaten one spoonful of the sweet rice wine with glutinous rice balls in her hand.

Then Li Xingyu held the spoon, no longer wanting to eat.

Sure enough, no matter what it is or how rare it is, if you can easily get it and get a lot of it, you'll still find it boring.

"Little Feather, what's wrong? Can't you eat?" Michael was sitting next to Li Xingyu, and seeing her holding the spoon and looking resistant, he had some guesses in his mind.

As for why Li Xingyu is sitting with Michael now...

One of the main reasons is that neither of them really likes crowds.

It's not that I don't like it.

I can accept a lively atmosphere, but I tend to dislike being in the center of a lively atmosphere.

Since Li Xingyu was alone and didn't want to leave the others alone, she and Michael grabbed some things for themselves and then found a corner with a good view to sit down.

"Ah, I'm not quite full yet. Although these sweet fermented rice balls and sweet fermented rice eggs are delicious, the alcohol has mostly evaporated because the wine has already been warmed."

"Then the sugar content in the glutinous rice becomes even more prominent, and it can get a bit cloying if you eat too much." Li Xingyu sighed, looking at the small glutinous rice balls in sweet fermented rice wine in front of her that she had only taken one bite of.

I don't want to eat anymore, but wasting food is wrong.

These foods were made with their hard work. Well, with so many high-tech products available, it's not really hard work.

It was something they had worked together to make, so Li Xingyu didn't want to waste it.

"If Little Feather doesn't mind, give me that bowl you're holding. That way, I won't have to go get it." Michael looked at Li Xingyu with a scrunched-up face, staring at the sweet rice balls on the table with a bitter expression, and felt somewhat helpless.

However, Michael could probably guess some of Li Xingyu's thoughts: she simply didn't want to waste the food they had made together.

He's a good kid.

"Is that alright? I only scooped a spoonful of the small glutinous rice balls in this bowl with the new spoon, and I didn't put the spoon back. It's clean." When Li Xingyu and the others were tidying up and arranging the food, they put a spoon in each bowl.

Not only does it look beautiful on the plate, but it's also very convenient.

As for where is convenient?

Doesn't this demonstrate it?

Li Xingyu always ate with one bowl and one spoon, and when she finished, she would get a new one, so it was one bowl and one spoon again.

The sweet fermented rice balls in front of me were supposedly leftovers after Li Xingyu took a bite, but in reality, they were practically the same as those that hadn't been eaten at all.

"Yes, I know, Little Feather, there's no need to be so nervous." Michael looked at Li Xingyu's anxious expression as he explained and directly placed the small dumplings in front of her in front of him.

Not to mention that Michael had been watching Li Xingyu closely and knew the real situation.

Even though these sweet fermented rice balls were leftovers from half of the meal, Michael didn't mind.

"Then I'll have to trouble Michael." Li Xingyu was now casually stuffing grilled meat, vegetables, and fruit into her mouth; she didn't want to touch rice wine or anything like that for the time being.

Sure enough, she still doesn't like alcohol and can't stand it.

"No trouble at all. Is there anything else you'd like to eat, Little Feather? It seems Xinghe and the others have just finished baking another batch." Michael stirred the still slightly hot glutinous rice balls while chatting with Li Xingyu.

Since Li Xingyu was staying here, Xinghe and the others would send over a little bit of each kind of barbecue after they finished grilling another batch.

If there's only one person (a boy), then you have to help yourself to eat or you'll have to do it yourself.

The levitating ball kept jumping and flying around in the backyard, and no one knew what it was filming, but Li Xingyu didn't pay any attention to it after glancing at it a few times.

There are quite a few people watching over her.

It's getting dark now, and the LED strip lights wrapped around the backyard have come on, casting a warm and beautiful glow. The summer night breeze always gives people a comfortable and lazy feeling.

Li Xingyu felt that drinking a little alcohol occasionally was quite nice; the feeling of being slightly tipsy was simply wonderful.

"Hmm, I'd like some grilled fish and grilled chicken legs, a little spicy, and some pork belly and steak too, seasoned normally." Li Xingyu leaned back in her chair, half-closing her eyes as she looked at Michael.

“Okay, I’ll go get it for you, and then ask Cain to come and keep you company.” Michael nodded to indicate that he remembered, then greeted Cain, who was closest to them, and headed towards Xinghe and the others.

Cain was holding a cup of rice wine, watching the lively scene before him while slowly sipping it with a slight smile, occasionally joining in the fun.

Upon hearing Michael's greeting, Cain nodded slightly to him, then picked up his wine glass and walked towards the small corner where Li Xingyu was.

Li Xingyu was about to refuse Michael's suggestion to have someone accompany her, but before she could even say anything, the person had already arrived, so she had no choice but to accept.

Ah ~

Why do my friends always think I'm frail and weak?

This looks like it's been filtered eight hundred meters thick.

Li Xingyu watched Cain, who was carrying a cup of rice wine and walking gracefully toward her, and lazily complained to herself.

"Little Feather, how are you feeling?" Cain looked at Li Xingyu, whose cheeks were slightly flushed and whose eyes were a little dazed, and sat down next to her with composure and elegance. His distance and words were comfortable.

"Cain, I feel pretty good. How's the rice wine?" Kaixin rested her elbow on the table, propped her head up with her palm, and turned to look at Cain sitting next to her. Her tone was soft and languid, with a hint of hoarseness.

Li Xingyu's voice would become hoarse whenever she drank alcohol, carbonated beverages, or sparkling water, depending on the degree of hoarseness.

So even though she felt her voice was a little different from usual, Li Xingyu didn't care at all, as expected, since it would recover in a while anyway.

"Little Feather? What's wrong with your voice? Is your throat uncomfortable?" Cain really didn't know what was going on. Hearing Li Xingyu's somewhat hoarse voice, he thought it was because her throat was uncomfortable, and his expression became a little worried.

"Hmm, it's nothing, it's normal, it'll be fine in a bit, Cain, don't worry." Li Xingyu held a slice of peach skewered with chopsticks in her hand, slowly nibbling on it, looking at Cain, and even managing to say a few words of reassurance.

Although Xinghe and his group don't have the same convenient wind-based abilities as Xifeier, Che's ability to control water is also very impressive.

The peach that Li Xingyu was eating was cut by Che using his water-based abilities.

Before anyone could react, Che slammed the knife down on the table, conjured several water blades in his hand, and quickly processed the fruit that needed to be prepared.

The scene at the time completely stunned everyone.

Following in the footsteps of Hifer, another ruthless individual has emerged who uses his abilities to cut fruit.

After her initial shock, Li Xingyu inadvertently glanced at Che's restless fingertips, and a somewhat unexpected thought popped into her mind.

Is Che planning to use his own fingernails?

But it really is very useful.

But it always feels weird.

Could it be that this is why he's able to cut fruit?

It seems that this possibility cannot be ruled out.

"That's good. But is Little Feather drunk now?" Cain looked at Li Xingyu, who seemed a little different from before, and couldn't help but think of what had happened in the kitchen not long ago.

"Well, I wouldn't say I'm drunk. I feel more like slightly tipsy. My mind and body are still functioning and I'm clear-headed, but I feel a bit sluggish." Li Xingyu knew they weren't familiar with some of the terms related to alcohol, so she simply explained them directly.

"I see. Will Little Feather still make wine in the future? I mean, other types." Cain placed the cup in his hand on the table, his expression a mixture of anticipation and trepidation.

Cain and his companions all loved this beverage called rice wine, especially the feeling of walking on clouds, which was simply irresistible.

but……

After such a rude and offensive thing happened in the kitchen, will Little Feather hate alcohol from now on?

So, all those different kinds of wine she mentioned before, are we not going to see them anymore? Or will we not have the chance to taste them?

"Well, it all depends on fate. If I come across some good ingredients or am in a good mood, I might brew some more." Li Xingyu shrugged indifferently, his words and voice full of nonchalance.

"I see. If Little Feather is unhappy, can she tell us? We hope Little Feather can always be happy." Cain wasn't too surprised by Li Xingyu's answer.

After spending these days together, everyone has basically formed a preliminary impression and understanding of Li Xingyu:

Gentle and shy by nature, she becomes incredibly enthusiastic when she encounters something that interests her, almost radiating light. She is very perceptive of emotions, yet struggles to understand their meaning. She is multi-talented and thoughtful...

However, they are somewhat taciturn, yet their words are sometimes surprisingly sincere and direct, which can be overwhelming. They also enjoy playing small pranks and teasing others, and they have a strong sense of independence, always wanting to solve and process things on their own...

The more Xinghe and the others spent with Li Xingyu, the more they felt like they were admiring a piece of warm and beautiful unpolished jade, constantly discovering its highlights, as if they could never find them all.

When a person's status reaches a certain level in another person's heart, even the slightest shortcoming will become a source of deep concern and worry for them.

“Okay, I always feel that Cain goes well with red wine and stemmed glasses. I’ll read you some wine in a few days. It’s a very elegant wine.” Li Xingyu looked at Cain, whose every move exuded elegance and inexplicable mystery, and couldn’t help but say to him with a smile.

Cain is a vampire, so if he were to transform into his original form, he would gently swirl a glass filled one-third full of red wine.

That scene was absolutely thrilling.

Li Xingyu looked at Cain in front of her, her mind wandering to all sorts of random thoughts.

"Red wine? Wine? Is it made from fruit?" Cain was also very curious when he heard Li Xingyu's words.

Why did Li Xingyu think these terms, which he had never heard of before, were so suitable for him?

"Hmm, the color is... a slightly dark red, which suits Cain's temperament very well." Li Xingyu nodded in affirmation of her idea, and then explained it to Cain a little more.

"Little Feather, what are you planning to cook this time? I'm sorry, I didn't know what Cain liked to eat, so I took a little of everything except what Little Feather wanted to eat." Michael returned to the place where Li Xingyu and Cain were, carrying two plates, and nodded apologetically to Cain.

“It’s alright, Michael has already gone to a lot of trouble, and I’m not a picky eater.” Cain shook his head slightly to indicate that he didn’t mind, and thanked Michael with a smile.

"Thank you, Michael. I just saw Cain walking towards me with a wine glass, and for a moment I thought his demeanor and the red wine complemented each other perfectly." Li Xingyu thanked Michael first, and then together with Cain cleared some space on the table to place the plate that Michael had brought over.

"Red wine? It's a kind of wine too? Aura?" Michael was a little confused. After all, apart from school, he had focused all his energy on training his abilities and body, so he couldn't really make these connections.

Cain was also somewhat puzzled by this. He had only recently finished his studies, and his focus was similar to Michael's, with an added element: managing family affairs.

He was slightly confused by the unfamiliar words that occasionally popped out of Li Xingyu's mouth, but he hadn't had a chance to ask them yet.

"Mmm, it's that kind of elegant, handsome, noble, with an aura of timelessness and a touch of danger and mystery, plus a hint of darkness." Li Xingyu tilted her head and thought about the words in her mind before describing her inner thoughts and feelings.

"Hmm... Little Feather, are you referring to the vampire aura on my body?" Upon hearing Li Xingyu's description, Cain and Michael fell silent simultaneously. It was Cain who, after realizing what was happening, hesitantly asked the question.
