"Are ghosts as good-looking as me?" Shen Lang leaned in front of Tong Yubo and asked seriously.
Tong Yubo gripped the soil tightly with both hands, his teeth chattering with fear at Shen Lang's presence, and he stammered, "You...who...who are you...?"
Shen Lang reached up and brushed a strand of hair from his forehead, revealing what he thought was a very gentle smile: 'Me? You can think of me as a god who grants dreams. As long as you have a dream, you can make a wish to me, and maybe I'll help you achieve it.'
Shen Lang then waved his hand, and the surrounding void instantly transformed into a beautiful landscape of mountains and rivers.
Tong Yubo was stunned by Shen Lang's move. He stared at Shen Lang in disbelief and asked, "Are you a god?"
Shen Lang pinched his chin, thought for a while, and said, "If that's what you want to think, then it's not impossible."
Upon hearing this, Tong Yubo's expression immediately changed from tense to overjoyed. He immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Shen Lang: "Immortal brother, I, Xiao Bozi, have actually met an immortal."
"Fairy Brother? Hmm~ that's a nice title!" Shen Lang smiled happily when he heard Tong Yubo address him that way.
"I knew it! How could such a handsome man be a ghost? He must be a celestial being!" After kowtowing three times, Tong Yubo looked up at Shen Lang with surprise and said, "Celestial being, can you help me?"
Shen Lang snapped his fingers in the air, and a futon appeared under his buttocks. He then sat cross-legged opposite Tong Yubo, propped his head up with his right hand, and asked with a smile, "Okay, Immortal Brother is in a good mood today, so I can consider it. Tell me your wish first, and maybe I'll help you."
Seeing how approachable and friendly Shen Lang was, Tong Yubo got up and sat cross-legged opposite him, beginning to gesticulate as he described his current predicament.
"Brother Fairy, I'm so annoyed lately. I'm a junior in high school now!"
At this point, Tong Yubo looked at Shen Lang and asked a probing question: "Oh right, the second year of high school is high school, a stage of learning, do you understand, fairy brother?"
Shen Lang rolled his eyes inwardly, speechless, and said, "I know, go on."
"Oh, okay! I'll continue!"
Tong Yubo then continued, “I’m about to enter my senior year of high school, which is a crucial hurdle in my life. I want to study hard and get good grades in the college entrance examination so that I can go to the Agricultural University. After graduating from university, I can go home and inherit my father’s family business.”
"But recently a lot of female classmates have been coming to see me. They are so annoying. They ask me every day if I am hungry or thirsty, and they insist on dragging me out shopping."
“You said I’m stupid to begin with, and they’re still disturbing my studies like this. I seriously suspect that they were sent by my older sister to seduce me, so that I can’t concentrate on my studies and will miss the opportunity to inherit my father’s business.”
"Huh, this kid has a family business?" Shen Lang looked at Tong Yubo curiously and asked, "What does your family do? What are your father's assets?"
"Emmmm...Aren't you a god? Don't you know this?" Tong Yubo asked Shen Lang.
“You brat…” Shen Lang shook his head and smiled, then waved his jade hand, and Tong Yubo’s consciousness instantly flew into the sky.
Under Shen Lang's skillful manipulation, Tong Yubo flew around the virtual mountain three times before stopping.
"Ah~ Help! Help! Immortal brother, I was wrong, I should have questioned you, I know I was wrong, please put me down, I'm scared!"
Tong Yubo's screams echoed continuously from the air.
Seeing that he had had enough fun, Shen Lang reached out and beckoned him back to his original spot: "Come on, tell me, what does your family do?"
Back in his original position, Tong Yubo looked at Shen Lang warily and asked, "You...you wouldn't be after my family's wealth, would you?"
"Would you like to fly one more lap?"
"No, no, no!" Tong Yubo hurriedly waved his hand to refuse, and then truthfully explained his family background.
“My father raised three hundred sheep, one hundred cows, and also contracted a mountain to grow medicinal herbs.”
"Oh, by the way, our family also has twenty acres of land!"
Shen Lang was speechless. He looked at Tong Yubo and asked, "Your dream is to go home and inherit your father's three hundred sheep, one hundred cows, and twenty acres of land?"
Tong Yubo nodded seriously: "Yes, my dad is the richest man in our surrounding area."
Shen Lang mentally gave Tong Yubo a big thumbs up, then continued to ask, "So what does your sister do?"
“Hmm~ My sister is a kindergarten teacher.” When talking about his family, Tong Yubo said with a wronged look, “But my sister is naughty. She said that if I don’t get into the Agricultural University, she will take my little nephew back to my home and then inherit my father’s family business.”
"Oh? Is your sister's family very poor?"
“Not poor at all. My brother-in-law’s family owns three properties in X City, and he also runs a software development company! My brother-in-law’s parents own several large hotels.” Tong Yubo said with a proud look, “And my brother-in-law is really amazing. I came to X City to study because my brother-in-law transferred me here.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Lang covered his face with his hands and said speechlessly, "It seems that God not only took away this guy's learning ability, but also his intelligence."
This guy is a complete idiot.
"Do you think your sister will take your little nephew back and let him roam freely?" Shen Lang looked at him with amusement.
He originally thought he could enlighten the person who was dreaming.
Unexpectedly, Tong Yubo gave Shen Lang a sly look and whispered, "Brother Shen, let me tell you, that's not necessarily true. People have always said that human hearts are unpredictable. Maybe my older sister is after my family's wealth."
Well, what a self-righteous idiot.
"So what do you want to do?" Shen Lang asked, looking at Tong Yubo.
"Can you help me become an immortal, fairy brother?" Tong Yubo stared at Shen Lang with wide, expectant eyes.
"No." Shen Lang directly rejected Tong Yubo's request.
If the exchange were to take this guy in, it would definitely lose everything. Gu Qingqing's hard-earned savings can't be wasted on this kid.
At the same time, Shen Lang couldn't help but marvel at the peculiar thought process of the idiot. He was so stupid, yet he still wanted to achieve great things in one step.
Tong Yubo, who was rejected by Shen Lang, did not show any disappointment. Instead, he looked at Shen Lang with even more anticipation: "Then, could you, my fairy brother, grant me the ability to learn?"
“That’s possible,” Shen Lang said with a smile. “I can grant you the ability to learn, but at the same time, I’ll also take away your luck with women.”
Upon hearing this, Tong Yubo grinned and exclaimed, "Hey, fairy brother, please take away my luck with women! These girls are like ducks, always quacking around me. It's so annoying!"
