Me and My Two Bosses' Systems

Chapter 288 The 288th Day of Wanting to Be a Lazy Person

Li Xingyu had no idea that the little game she left for Li Manzhou and the others to amuse themselves that morning had broken the hearts and caused depression among countless netizens.

She's currently picking up Xinghe and Tianshu from get off work at the Alliance headquarters.

"Xinghe, Tianshu, you've worked hard. We've come to pick you up after get off work." Li Xingyu got out of the car and walked over to Xinghe and Tianshu, handing them the two bouquets of flowers she was carrying.

Xinghe and Tianshu couldn't hide their surprise and joy when they saw Li Xingyu get out of the car with flowers in her arms and walk towards them.

Upon receiving the two bouquets of flowers, each with its own unique characteristics, Xinghe and Tianshu both wore knowing expressions and bright smiles.

So it turns out that Little Feather/Little Star have been secretly preparing gifts for them all this time.

So cute.

They all live in the same house. Li Yue and the others either live on the same floor as Hao Yue and the others, or on the same floor as Li Xingyu.

Moreover, there's no need to mention Xinghe and Tianshu's work anymore, and Li Xingyu's actions weren't deliberately concealed.

However, since Li Xingyu didn't tell them about this directly, it's probably because of some other consideration.

Although Xinghe and the others were a little disappointed that Li Xingyu hadn't asked them for help, they still cooperated with her in a very tacit way.

Otherwise, Li Xingyu might not have been able to whisper to Haoyue and the others alone this morning.

——???——

"It must have been tough on Xinghe and the other kids. They must have racked their brains a lot this morning to help Xiaoyumo," Li Manzhou said with a smile to Bellanette beside her, holding a bouquet of flowers.

"Hmm, it must have taken a lot of thought." Bellanette held flowers in one hand and played with a delicate clay sculpture in the other, her expression gentle.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Little Feather is really more meticulous. When did she prepare all these clay sculptures and flowers?" Li Qingyue was also holding a bouquet of flowers, but her gaze was fixed on the coffee table.

The others' gazes kept wandering over the coffee table, occasionally glancing at the bouquet in their arms.

On the coffee table sits a very large transparent box, which occupies almost half of the table's surface area. It was a generous contribution from Fox Yu.

The box contained dozens of sculptures carved from peach wood.

Each of the little figures is in a different pose, clearly representing all the members of the Li family.

These are the game rewards that Li Manzhou and his group received today:

The family statues that Li Xingyu hid in various corners of her home.

Li Xingyu had instructed them beforehand not to use their mental power, abilities, or technological products for detection.

Li Manzhou and his group were indeed searching for treasure in their own home.

Moreover, Li Xingyu's knowledge is so extensive that it involves many ancient Earth cultures.

It wasn't easy for Li Manzhou and his group to find these things.

However, compared to the viewers in the live stream who were even more anxious and agitated than they were, Li Manzhou and his group seemed less worried.

To be honest, Li Xingyu's idea of ​​starting a live stream was indeed a great move.

Several of the small wooden carvings were found by viewers in the live stream.

However, the little clay sculpture in Bellanette's hand, Li Xingyu, instructed Haoyue and the others to make sure he found it himself.

This clay sculpture was the only one that Li Xingyu didn't bother to hide.

Even something as obvious as flowers took Li Xingyu a lot of effort to get Li Manzhou and the others to find and hold them.

"Little Feather sent a message in the group at noon, but we were so engrossed in the treasure hunt that we didn't notice."

By the time he saw the message, Little Feather had already started class. "Dras looked at the complete set of wood carvings on the coffee table and sighed softly.

They have nothing to do all day, so they check the messages that come in almost immediately.

But the little game that Xiao Yumo came up with was so captivating that it was hard to look away, and now it was almost time to get out of school.

Little Feather is probably almost home by now, so replying to her message now would be a little inappropriate.

However, I feel like this message from Little Feather wasn't mainly intended for them, which is... kind of annoying.

“It’s for everyone.” Rice glanced at Dellas, then looked back at the coffee table and suddenly spoke.

"Hmm? Rice, did something happen this morning that we don't know about? Is it related to Little Feather and the others' lunch?" Qin Fengshi also brought the attention back.

"Yes, the meal plan and fruit after the meal." Rice succinctly summarized the answer Qin Feng and his team wanted.

"I see. What kind of gift should we give in return?"

——???——

"Cain, El, thank you for your hard work. This is for you." Li Xingyu and the others had just arrived at the entrance of the Wings Gate, and Cain and Elnis, whom they had contacted in advance, came out of the gate.

"Huh? There are gifts for us too? They're beautiful, I love them, thank you, Little Feather." Elnis took the flowers from Li Xingyu's hand, and a string of words came out in her excitement.

"Thank you, Little Feather, I'm very happy." Cain also accepted the flowers from Li Xingyu, and the elegant and polite smile on his face became much brighter.

"You're welcome. I'm glad you like it. Let's go home now." Li Xingyu waved her hand and turned to walk towards their hovercar.

The hovercar wasn't far from the entrance to the wings, just a few steps away.

Xinghe and the others heard every word that Li Xingyu, Cain, and Elnis had just said.

Then, as soon as Li Xingyu got into the car, she met Xinghe and the others' complicated and subtle expressions, and couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong with you guys? Why do you look so strange?"

When they met the blank and confused look in Li Xingyu's clear eyes, Xinghe and the others paused for a moment.

Then the group looked at each other and composed themselves.

Even Cain and Elnis, who got into the car after Li Xingyu, had the same expression and actions.

Ok……

Why did I suddenly have these feelings of being delusional?

Looking at Xinghe and the others' inexplicable reactions, Li Xingyu tilted her head in confusion, pondering.

"Okay, it's nothing, I just remembered some things that weren't very pleasant."

"Little Feather is right, let's hurry home." Xinghe hated Li Xingyu for being a blockhead, and said the words "hurry home" through gritted teeth.

"Xinghe, how did you know I made a gift with peach wood?" Because Xinghe's thoughts came out so quickly, Li Xingyu only vaguely heard a few words.

After thinking it over, Li Xingyu felt that she hadn't given anything away, but she still couldn't resist asking out of curiosity.

"..." Xinghe choked, a breath stuck in his throat, and his inner voice stopped.

The others wore expressions of disappointment and speechlessness.

They could probably guess what Xinghe was thinking, but they never expected that Li Xingyu hadn't heard the whole thing.

At once……

"What gift?" Xinghe composed herself, took a few deep breaths, and then asked Li Xingyu.

'Why does Xinghe sound like he's gritting his teeth? Did something he just remembered make him so unhappy?' Li Xingyu listened to Xinghe's tone with some confusion.

“I carved wood carvings of all of us out of peach wood and placed them in various corners of the house so that my great-grandmother and the others could find them.”

"I estimate we should have found them all by now. Didn't you guys only help me cover for me after you found out about this?" Li Xingyu was more confident about the flowers than about carving wood.

Haoyue and her team picked and transported the flowers without encountering any people along the way. She also wrapped them in her own workshop, and after finishing, she put them into the storage space.

As for the peach wood statue, we were fortunate that Xinghe and the others covered for us this morning; otherwise, the placement might not have gone so smoothly.

Li Xingyu mainly collected wood carvings and flowers in public areas of the Li family home, excluding private rooms.

Such as five living rooms, various public functional rooms, rooftop, front and back yards, etc.

Anyway, such a large house can easily accommodate forty or so small wooden carvings and bouquets, each about ten centimeters in size.

It's just that Li Xingyu isn't good at acting alone, so he needs to be extra careful.

"Huh? Little Feather prepared such a big surprise?" Xinghe and the others were full of doubt, completely unaware that Li Xingyu had prepared these things.

Or……

Did they make a small blunder?

Li Xingyu and Xinghe blinked innocently at each other, then couldn't help but laugh at each other.

Clearly, everyone had figured out each other's thoughts and feelings, and now they couldn't help but get excited.

The rest of the time was spent in anticipation by Li Xingyu and Xinghe.

Li Xingyu was looking forward to seeing how Li Manzhou and the others felt and reacted after she returned home.

Xinghe and the others eagerly awaited Li Xingyu's wood carving.

"We're back!" Li Xingyu shouted excitedly as she pushed open the door.

"Little Feather, you're back! Look, we've found all the treasure!" Li Manzhou came out to greet them the moment she heard Li Xingyu's voice. After excitedly greeting Li Xingyu and the others, she pulled her towards the coffee table.

Xinghe and the others had been looking forward to it all the way, even though Li Xingyu had already told them that they were the references for the wood carving.

That also subtly raised their expectations, and now that they can actually see the real thing, they are all very excited.

The clay sculptures that Li Xingyu gave them are still carefully stored in their respective storage spaces.

I wonder what the wood carvings will look like this time. Will they be collected as a whole set, or will each person keep their own?

Either way, it's something that makes people happy.

oops~

How wonderful it is to have little feathers/little stars!

Xinghe and the others were all praising Li Xingyu in their hearts, completely forgetting their earlier disappointment.

Little Feather/Little Star is still young, it's normal that they haven't figured out how to express their feelings yet.

Why set such high standards for a tiny cub?

We don't expect her to save the world right now.

Yes, Xinghe and the others made themselves feel better so easily.

Li Xingyu was completely bewildered and did not participate at all, not even realizing why the other party was unhappy.

It's like watching a TV series and criticizing the female lead as a blockhead from a god's-eye view, but in real life or in your own life, the situation isn't much better.

It's all wood.

Li Xingyu and Xinghe greeted the other people in the living room before putting down their schoolbags to look at the items on the coffee table.

As for the flowers in Xinghe's hands, it's impossible for them to put them down.

Anyway, it's fine to hold a small bunch, and I'm holding them all in my arms.

After Xinghe and the others examined the wood carving, they began discussing its treatment with Li Manzhou and the others.

Li Xingyu then reached out her hand towards the fruit plate on the side of the coffee table.

"Huh? Great-Grandma, Grandma, you're still live streaming?"

It's almost dinner time, so I thought I'd join in the fun. Li Xingyu, with a dark red cherry dangling from her lips, glanced at the floating sphere above the living room and raised an eyebrow with a hint of interest.

Just do it.

Li Xingyu took another bite of cherry, chewing as she operated the floating ball to open her live stream.

"Good evening, everyone. I'm Li Xingyu. I have something nice to show you." After quickly greeting the floating sphere, Li Xingyu pointed the camera at the wooden carving on the coffee table.

Before the viewers in Li Xingyu's live stream could react, and had only typed half of their greetings, their attention was drawn to the bouquets of flowers and wooden carvings that Li Manzhou and the others were each holding.

After arranging the floating spheres, Li Xingyu brought up the barrage wall, merging it with those of Li Manzhou and Li Qingyue.

After Li Manzhou and Li Qingyue started their live stream in the morning, they merged their two bullet screens together.

"Grandpa Xifeier, what are we having for dinner?" Li Xingyu's appetite was whetted by the sweet and sour cherries, and she nudged Xifeier sitting next to her, asking the question sincerely.

"Dinner is almost ready, Little Feather will find out soon." Xifeier's expression softened when Li Xingyu poked him, and then he kept her in suspense under her expectant gaze.

After finding the treasure hidden in Li Xingyu's house, Li Manzhou and the others really felt that it was a bit silly for such a large group of them to stare at these wood carvings.

Then, remembering that Li Xingyu liked food, I had the idea of ​​preparing dinner for her.

The idea grew stronger and stronger as soon as it came up, and after discussion, the group immediately made a decision.

Then came the brainstorming sessions to come up with the recipes and the enthusiastic preparations.

However, Li Manzhou and the others originally planned to check if there were any ready-made recipes in the kitchen cabinets.

After all, it's getting late, and if they make everything themselves, there won't be enough time.

Moreover, they didn't really have much confidence in their cooking skills, at least compared to Li Xingyu and the others.

Then they discovered that all the dishes on the menu they had drawn up were in the kitchen cabinets.

Finally, Li Manzhou and the others went into the kitchen and cooked two pots of rice.

Having gotten used to better-tasting dishes, I always feel that my cooking skills are not good enough.

Let's use the lockers for now.

I'll prepare it myself once my cooking skills improve a bit.

"Huh?! Is dinner a surprise from Great-Grandma, Great-Grandpa, and Grandma and Grandpa? I can't wait!" Li Xingyu was surprised for a moment when she heard Xifeier's words, but then she became happy.
