I rely on unlimited life extension
Chapter 27: Hero Saves the Beauty (End)
Yuan Fang laughed excitedly, her expression as arrogant as a victorious general.
She carried the wild duck, which was already exhausted from flapping its wings, and like a proud little hen, she circled the taxi several times, looking incredibly smug.
When Yuan Yuan saw this, she felt resentful and immediately refused to comply.
She grabbed Cheng Yi's arm, acting coquettishly and insisting that Cheng Yi catch her a wild duck too, or she would stay there and refuse to leave.
Cheng Yi was initially reluctant. The reed marshes looked eerie, and who knew what dangers might lurk inside?
However, Yuan Yuan ignored him and dragged him out of the reeds.
Looking at the dense, unfathomable reeds before him, Cheng Yi felt conflicted.
Just as he was hesitating, Miss Yuan Yuan began to cast her "magic" again.
She whispered sweet nothings in Cheng Yi's ear in a soft voice, and Cheng Yi's resolve began to waver.
Finally, Yuan Yuan whispered a very tempting promise in his ear: if Cheng Yi could catch a wild duck, she would kiss him once, no, twice.
Faced with such temptation, Cheng Yi completely surrendered.
He found a long pole nearby, intending to use it to drive the wild ducks out of the reeds.
So he cautiously entered the reeds and stirred them with a pole, trying to scare the wild ducks out.
However, as time passed, he worked for more than half an hour, sweating profusely, but didn't even see a single wild duck.
Just as Cheng Yi was about to lose confidence and give up after a few more tries, a large bird suddenly flew out from the depths of the reeds.
Cheng Yi's eyes lit up, and he immediately mustered all his strength, swinging the long pole in his hand in a wide arc. With a "snap," he accurately struck the large bird's body.
This was quite serious; the large bird was flung away and crashed heavily into the water.
Cheng reacted quickly, rushing forward and firmly stepping on the bird's leg. He then grabbed its wing and pulled it out of the water with great effort.
Seeing this, Yuan Yuan excitedly exclaimed "Wow!" and rushed out like a happy little deer, running up to Cheng Yi and planting several kisses on his face.
Cheng felt her face burning up, and even her ears turned bright red, but her heart felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey.
Seeing this, Yuan Fang snorted somewhat unconvinced and muttered, "What's so great about it? I caught this wild duck myself."
Yuan Yuan didn't care about her at all. At this moment, she was contentedly stroking the big bird's wings while telling Cheng Yi to quickly find a bag that could put the big bird in.
Cheng Yi rummaged through the car for a long time before finally finding two large plastic bags. He put the big bird and the wild duck into them respectively, then put the bags in the trunk before finally letting out a sigh of relief.
This little "adventure" brought them a lot of joy.
The three of them set off on their journey again. This time, the two young beauties were like tired kittens, no longer causing any trouble and becoming much quieter.
Perhaps their previous exploration in the reed marshes had exhausted them, because soon after getting into the vehicle, drowsiness washed over them like a tide.
Cheng Yi turned around and looked at the two pretty girls whose eyelids were starting to droop, and said to them with a smile, "If you're sleepy, take a nap."
After saying that, he reclined the back seat so the two little girls could lie down more comfortably. The two beauties thanked him, adjusted their positions, and soon drifted off to sleep.
That day, the car was like a little food paradise. The two girls, like two little gluttons, devoured the self-heating rice, hot pot, and other food, and even finished off half of the farm sausage. Their satisfied expressions made it seem as if these foods were the most delicious things in the world.
Time slipped away quietly as the wheels rolled on, and before we knew it, night had fallen.
When the car finally entered Beijing, the familiar buildings came into view.
The two young girls perked up immediately, as excited as two happy little birds, looking at the familiar scenery outside the car window, shouting and cheering with joy.
With a smile on his lips, Cheng Yi slowly stopped the car at an intersection.
He turned to the two pretty girls and said, "Alright, you two little ladies, you're home now. You can get off the bus."
The two little girls then came to their senses, their eyes filled with both the joy of arriving home and the reluctance to leave the journey behind.
Yuan Yuan blinked her big eyes, looking puzzled, and asked, "Huh?? Brother Cheng Yi, aren't you coming home with us?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yi smiled and replied, "What are you saying? I've already safely delivered you home. My mission is complete, so I won't bother you any longer."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Fang immediately reached out and hugged Cheng Yi's arm tightly, saying coquettishly, "No, Brother Cheng Yi, I won't let you go."
Cheng Yi tried everything to coax and persuade her, but Yuan Fang just wouldn't let go. No matter what Cheng Yi said, she wouldn't listen, just like a stubborn little child.
Finally, Cheng Yi had no choice but to tell them to add each other on Fetion so they could contact each other anytime.
The two young beauties then relented slightly and reluctantly agreed to let Cheng Yi leave.
Cheng Yi then got out of the car, opened the trunk, took out the two women's small suitcases, and carefully took out two plastic bags containing wild ducks and large birds.
At this moment, Yuan Yuan's gaze was suddenly drawn to a large suitcase in the trunk. She asked with a face full of curiosity, "Brother Cheng Yi, whose suitcase is this?"
As Cheng Yi handed the items to Yuan Yuan and Yuan Fang, he replied with a smile, "Look at what you're saying, it's in my car, so of course it's my suitcase."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Fang wrinkled her cute nose, tilted her head, and continued to ask, "Your suitcase is so big, what's inside?"
Cheng Yi patiently explained, "I didn't pack anything special, just some of my clothes and everyday items."
Yuan Fang was still a little confused and asked, "But why didn't you keep your suitcase at home? Why did you put it in the car instead?"
Cheng Yi was taken aback, remained silent for a moment, and then slowly said, "Because I have no home, this car is my home."
The two young beauties were stunned by these words. They never expected such an answer and were speechless for a moment. They just stared at Cheng Yi with surprise and sympathy in their eyes.
Cheng Yi turned around, gently closed the trunk, then looked up at the two women with tender eyes and said, "Alright, as long as the mountains remain green and the waters flow, we'll meet again."
After saying that, he turned around, got into a taxi, started the car skillfully, and prepared to leave.
The two beautiful girls, Yuan Yuan and Yuan Fang, looked at each other, their eyes filled with reluctance.
Immediately afterward, Yuan Yuan seemed to suddenly realize something, and quickly ran over, blocking the front of the car, saying urgently, "Wait a minute, I have something to say!"
Cheng Yi quickly stopped the car, smiled, and stuck his head out of the window to look at Yuan Yuan, jokingly asking, "Miss Yuan Yuan, what's the matter now?"
Yuan Yuan stammered for a moment before asking, "You...you're not lying to me, are you?"
Cheng Yi was somewhat puzzled: "Huh? What do you mean by lying to you?"
Yuan Yuan bit her lip and continued, "That's right, you just said you don't have a home."
Cheng Yi smiled slightly and said, "Why would I lie to you? It's true, I really don't have a home."
At this moment, Yuan Fang also ran over and stood in front of the car with Yuan Yuan. With tears in her eyes, she said, "It's okay. From today onwards, you have a home. My home is your home. You also have family now. My sister and I are your family."
Looking at the two affectionate and angelic young beauties, Cheng Yi felt a mix of emotions.
He slowly got out of the car, walked up to them, reached out and gently touched their hair, a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and said, "No, I can't have family."
"Why?" The two pretty girls stared wide-eyed, their eyes filled with confusion.
Cheng Yi took a deep breath and said slowly, "Because if I have a family, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear leaving this world."
The two young girls looked blank, clearly not understanding the meaning of the sentence.
Cheng Yi sighed, pointed to his head, and said calmly, "I have brain cancer, and it's already in its late stage. I don't know when I might suddenly leave this world. So right now, I have no ties, no debts, and I can go wherever I want to go."
Having family wouldn't be a good thing for me, because then I'd have something to worry about, you understand? Okay, thank you both for your kind offer.
After saying that, Cheng Yi turned around and got back into the car. He started the car, reversed with a nimble and neat move, and then made a quick and sharp turn. The taxi sped away like an arrow, leaving only the two pretty girls standing there.
They could no longer hold back their sorrow, and tears streamed down their faces as they cried uncontrollably.
——————Here comes the dividing line——————
The next morning, sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains and onto the double room of a small hotel on the outskirts of Beijing.
Cheng Yi slowly woke up and stretched vigorously, as if trying to drive away the fatigue of the past few days.
He slowly opened his eyes, looked around at the unfamiliar and somewhat shabby surroundings with a bit of confusion, and then came to his senses.
He got up and went into the bathroom, turned on the shower, and the warm water poured down, hitting his body and making him feel exceptionally comfortable.
After washing up, he returned to bed, lying in a starfish position, and the images of the two pretty girls he had seen in the rearview mirror involuntarily floated into his mind.
Their every smile and their youthful beauty were etched into his mind, and a feeling of reluctance welled up in his heart.
However, Cheng Yi knew very well that the two young beauties came from real wealthy and powerful families.
If he were to act rashly and follow them, he would be nothing but an ant in the face of such a family, and would only be looked down upon.
He is a person with extremely strong self-esteem. Whether it's for that pitiful self-esteem or for some other reason, he absolutely cannot accept being looked down upon.
As for Wanghai County, Cheng Yi really doesn't want to go back now.
However, he secretly vowed that he would definitely go back when he had enough ability.
He wanted to make those rich kids pay for their past actions and to seek justice for those two beautiful girls.
And that scoundrel who extorted money by the sea, he must teach him a lesson so he knows that evil deeds will be punished.
Cheng Yi reached for the remote and turned on the TV, which was playing entertainment news.
To be honest, the entertainment industry today is like a fertile land, with a large number of young actresses and actresses springing up like mushrooms after rain.
Most of them don't have any outstanding works; they've only participated in a few competitions, yet they've been packaged as superstars, which is both laughable and pathetic.
As Cheng Yi watched, he silently complained about this strange phenomenon in the entertainment industry.
Just then, a news article suddenly caught his eye, and his gaze froze instantly, as if he had been frozen in place.
On the television screen was a woman in a gorgeous wedding dress. Cheng Yi's heart skipped a beat at her familiar face. Wasn't that Miss Cheng Yi? She was actually married?
Cheng Yi stared blankly at the photo of the young lady on the TV, feeling a mix of emotions welling up inside him.
It was a complex emotion that was hard to describe. Was it envy? Looking at the happy smile on the young lady's face, he felt a bittersweet longing in his heart.
Is it envy? Or jealousy? Jealousy of the person who can stand beside this young lady and spend their life with her?
Even he himself couldn't figure out what kind of feelings he had for the young lady.
Is it love? That feeling of being moved and longing for someone is so real.
Or perhaps it's familial love? The companionship and dependence the boy had forged a bond between them that was deeply ingrained.
Or perhaps, all of this was just wishful thinking on his part, like a toad trying to eat swan meat? Cheng Yi fell into deep thought.
In the quiet hotel room, Cheng Yi's thoughts suddenly drifted uncontrollably towards Li Caihong and Junzi, whom he had met earlier.
At this moment, his inner desire was not a vulgar venting of lust, but simply a wish for a warm embrace that could offer him some solace in this complex and unknown world.
However, the lingering shadow that haunted him, the confirmed diagnosis of brain cancer, quickly resurfaced in his mind.
And then there's the Punisher System, hanging over my head like the Sword of Damocles. Who knows what kind of bizarre world I'll be transported to next time I travel? Everything is so uncertain.
He shook his head slightly, as if trying to shake these jumbled thoughts out of his mind.
"I think I should just forget about it," he said to himself softly.
I am already in this state, like a lone boat adrift in turbulent waves, my fate is completely out of my control, so why should I drag others down with me?
He looked helplessly at the Punisher System interface, seeing that he had 1000 hours of life left. A bitter smile appeared on his lips, a smile full of bitterness and helplessness.
Cheng Yi packed her things and went downstairs to check out.
