Me and My Two Bosses' Systems

Chapter 35 The 35th Day of Wanting to Be a Lazy Person

Plants like plantain, dandelion, and houttuynia cordata are both Chinese medicinal herbs and can be eaten as vegetables.

Li Xingyu also saw a small patch of red wild fruit that was common in the countryside in May and June when she was a child - raspberries, also called mountain raspberries, March raspberries, thorn raspberries, etc. on the side of the road ahead.

These wild fruits are beautiful and delicious when ripe, resembling tiny red lanterns.

The only downside is that it's a bit small and not easy to preserve, and its branches have many sharp thorns, so you can easily get pricked when picking it.

The patch of red berries that Li Xingyu saw was the March Rose, but an interstellar version, because its size and tree structure were somewhat beyond Li Xingyu's comprehension.

The path they are walking on now has the following characteristics: on one side of the path is a small hill, and on the other side is a small, slightly flat grassy area. The raspberry bush is growing on the small hill near the path.

Yes, this location is very suitable for raspberries, perfectly matching their growing conditions. Anyway, all the raspberries Li Xingyu had seen before grew in similar locations, or in similar locations by the river, which is quite normal.

But the raspberry bushes in front of Li Xingyu were not only thicker than any she had ever seen before, resembling small trees, but the fruits were also larger, with the most plump ones measuring three centimeters in diameter.

Hmm... the thorns on the tree trunk also look more numerous, sharper, and longer.

If Li Xingyu hadn't received the complete guide to plants and animals from Qingyao and Hanqing, she wouldn't have thought it was a March rose; she would have thought it was some kind of fruit from this world that she didn't know about.

Li Xingyu felt fortunate that she had Qingyao and Hanqing. Otherwise, given the extent to which the plants here had evolved or mutated, even if she knew what they looked like and what their effects were, she might not have been able to recognize them at a glance.

She might have to try them one by one. Thanks for the invitation, but she doesn't want to be an interstellar hermit.

After glancing once more at the overly robust March rose, Li Xingyu's hand began to stir with desire.

Then Li Xingyu carefully but quickly reached out towards the fruit of the March-blooming fruit.

Li Xingyu quickly picked all the raspberries she could reach, put some of them into her storage space, and then her eyes lit up.

"Grandpa Nai Shi~"

Li Xingyu popped a raspberry into her mouth from the one she was holding but hadn't yet put in her pocket, and while looking back at Rice, she called out to Rice indistinctly.

As Li Xingyu swallowed some of the raspberry juice in her mouth, she watched Rice walk towards her with the levitation ball and couldn't help but nod secretly.

'Mmm, these raspberries are delicious, so sweet! They're just a little too big; it's inconvenient to stuff a whole one in your mouth. Even though you don't have to chew much, your mouth can't contain all that juicy goodness.'

At first, Rice just walked slowly, like taking a stroll, while Li Xingyu hopped and skipped ahead of him.

He and the levitating ball followed behind Li Xingyu at a distance that was neither too close nor too far, so there was still a little bit of distance between Li Xingyu and them.

However, although Rice's ability is not combat-type, he is still a god-level ability user. Before Li Xingyu could swallow the raspberry in his mouth, Rice arrived in front of Li Xingyu.

Rice walked up to Li Xingyu, squatted down, and asked anxiously, "What happened? Did you get pricked?"

Rice had been enjoying picking the fruit with Li Xingyu, so he wasn't in a hurry. But now that Li Xingyu was calling him, he couldn't help but feel worried.

Rice only asked because he didn't smell any blood and Li Xingyu was lively and energetic. Otherwise, he would have already cured and thrown him out.

Li Xingyu looked at Rice squatting in front of him and the floating ball following behind him, feeling somewhat helpless.

She remembered that her grandfather Rice was a doctor, but he didn't have to be so professional; she just wanted him to help her pick some raspberries.

Li Xingyu tilted her head and looked at Rice, who was inexplicably anxious. Her voice was sweet and innocent, but full of helplessness. She pointed to the raspberries and said, "Grandpa Rice, I'm fine. I just want you to help me pick some raspberries. I can't reach the ones on top."

Rice looked at the little feather staring at him obediently, then at the sapling with thorns growing on its branches beside him. He nodded and agreed.

Then Rice steered the levitating ball toward Li Xingyu and headed toward the raspberry tree.

Li Xingyu stared blankly at the floating ball in front of her. Then, a wall of text suddenly appeared beside her, which appeared to be the real-time comments in her live stream.

"Wow~ Xinghe is amazing." Li Xingyu praised Xinghe first. Although he didn't say it, he had just asked Xinghe to help him manage his live stream. He was really efficient.

Looking at the dense barrage of comments, Li Xingyu glanced at the number of viewers with some curiosity, then closed her eyes for a moment, and then opened them again. Great, it was even higher than the previous second.

Goodness, don't they eat?

Wow~ Eating doesn't stop me from watching the live stream.

"Hello everyone, I'm Li Xingyu. This is my first live stream today. I'll be broadcasting my daily life, and I think that will be my main focus in the future."

What are you doing here?

"I'm waiting here for my grandpa Rice to help me pick raspberries."

While answering questions in the live chat, Li Xingyu also kept an eye on Rice, who was helping her pick raspberries.

"This is delicious? Yes, it's delicious!"

The people in Li Xingyu's live stream were just watching her from afar when suddenly a juicy, sweet, and slightly cool fruit appeared in their mouths.

Because the hillside doesn't get much sun in the afternoon, the road is just a pedestrian path and there's not much dust.

So Li Xingyu just picked it and put it in her mouth, at which point the fruit's texture and flavor were at their best.

Holographic technology in interstellar space is already very advanced. Streamers can choose to share only their own five senses, or they can choose to let viewers choose everything within the live stream's range.

Li Xingyu opened both and let her audience choose for themselves. She herself is picky about food, so even though it was only a little bit, she let them decide.

As Li Xingyu spoke, she took another raspberry and put it in her mouth. This time, however, she took a big bite. A whole raspberry was too big to eat easily, so two bites were just right.

Because of the holographic display, viewers in the live stream could also feel the sweetness and juiciness of the raspberries in their mouths.

Wow~ This fruit is so delicious! It feels like it melts in your mouth without you even having to chew it.

[Yeah, yeah, what's this fruit called? I love it!]

[Ahhh, it's so delicious!]

Looking at the comments in front of her, Li Xingyu felt somewhat helpless. At first, she was thinking: How come so many people don't know about this? Haven't they ever eaten it?

Then she looked at where the comments came from, and wow... it really does reflect the diversity of interstellar races and the vastness of interstellar space. It's normal that some people haven't tried it.

They came from all over the world and from almost every race. And, perhaps because there are so few women in interstellar space, the only new god-level mental power user to appear today is Li Xingyu.

Li Xingyu sighed.

Then he put the remaining half of the raspberry into his mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it.

I must say, eating a big one is just so satisfying!

The levitating ball was sandwiched between Li Xingyu and Rice. To make it easier to receive the raspberries Rice offered, Li Xingyu took a few steps toward Rice. Halfway there, he seemed to remember something: "Grandpa Rice, this?"

Li Xingyu called out to Rice, then pointed to the floating sphere, indicating that he was asking if he could be in the shot.

Rice glanced at the floating sphere, nodded casually in response to Li Xingyu's questioning look, and then handed over the bunch of raspberries in his hand.

Li Xingyu stepped forward, took the raspberries from Rice's hand, and put some of them into her storage space.

As Li Xingyu moved around, Rice unsurprisingly entered the frame, but the two of them didn't pay any attention to it.

Li Xingyu thought that since Grandpa Rice had agreed, why bother? Even if things didn't go well, there was still Xinghe.

Rice, on the other hand, was thinking: 'I'm retired anyway, so it doesn't matter.'

As for the people in the live stream, they were initially quite surprised, after all, Rice was a top-notch doctor and quite famous in StarCraft.

Li Xingyu and Rice simply picked the fruit and put it into the storage space, since time had stopped flowing anyway, they weren't worried about it spoiling if left for too long.

Although this raspberry tree was much thicker and taller than the ones Li Xingyu had seen before, it was only slightly taller than Li Xingyu herself.

Rice was easy to pick, but it was impossible to pick them because they were growing on a cliff face more than half a meter off the ground. Li Xingyu had to stand on tiptoe to barely pick a few of the shorter ones.

Rice felt that they had picked enough, so she put the last few raspberries she had picked into her hand. She had already given quite a few to Li Xingyu, so this was about enough.

They still had to go to the plantation later, and it would get dark if they delayed any longer. Little Feather didn't seem inclined to take it anymore, so they had to keep it for themselves.

Li Xingyu happily held a handful of raspberries, her eyes crinkling with laughter, looking just like a kitten being stroked.

Li Xingyu glanced at the bunch in her hand, then at the bunch in Rice's hand, and recalled the raspberries she had just put in her space. Her smile became even sweeter and happier.

People in the live stream kept stuffing raspberries into their mouths. Since it was all virtual, as long as the raspberries were still on the screen, they could keep eating without ever feeling full.

Sigh~ Since Grandpa Rice has already picked so many for her, then he can have the ones he has.

For the next few minutes, Li Xingyu and Rice were followed by the hovering ball, and the two of them seriously ate the raspberries in their hands.

Although these raspberries weren't washed, there's no pollution around here, so let them be. Let them eat them.

Moreover, since time is frozen in the storage space, there's no need to worry about it breaking. This also effectively prevents Little Feather from running over by herself again.

Yes, that's right, that's Rice's idea.

So skillful yet so unpretentious.

While eating, Li Xingyu watched the live stream comments. Well, since Xinghe had just created that comment wall, she could now control it.

Li Xingyu kept glancing at the food intentionally or unintentionally, but seeing that nothing serious happened, she continued eating seriously.

When Li Xingyu had only two raspberries left, they arrived at Plantation No. 2, though they didn't know which bunch of raspberries this was.

Along the way, Li Xingyu would occasionally interact with the audience and answer some of their questions.

You can also occasionally see some colorful and flashy names entering the live stream room. Yes, that's right, those are eye-catching bag effects exclusively for women.

They either come simply to watch, or they watch her live stream. Yes, this is true, not a nested doll.

It has to be said that wild raspberries are really delicious. They are very juicy. With just a light sip, the raspberry melts into a burst of sweet juice in your mouth. It slides down your throat with almost no chewing. It's simply too satisfying.

However, for Li Xingyu, a raspberry was a bit too big. She couldn't fit it in her mouth in one bite, so she had to eat it in two bites. Therefore, she had to be careful not to let the juice spill out.

Normally, I wouldn't need to go through all this trouble if I were just eating it myself, but since this is a live stream, I should be careful and maintain a certain image.

Along the way, Li Xingyu, Rice, and the people in the live broadcast room chatted and laughed, having a very pleasant time.

Through conversations with Li Xingyu and Rice along the way, she developed bonds with this world, and her connection with it deepened without her realizing it.

Li Xingyu spotted Ryan waiting for her at the plantation entrance and the plantation behind him at a glance. She was visibly excited and ran towards Ryan, calling out, "Grandpa, Grandpa, Grandpa Ryan~"

Even while jogging, Li Xingyu kept mentally complaining, 'These calls of "Grandpa" make anyone think the Calabash Brothers have arrived!'

'But whatever, my food, I'm coming!'

Ryan stood at the entrance of Plantation No. 2, watching Li Xingyu run towards him. He quickly stepped forward, squatted down slightly, and caught Li Xingyu as she pounced on him: "Hey~ Little Feather, slow down."
