Chapter 14 Ying Xing's Return Gift
Happy days always pass quickly. In the blink of an eye, the vacation that Lu Qi got after his first hunting trip was coming to an end.
When Dan Feng informed her of the bad news, she was still lying on the rocking chair, watching the Xianzhou netizens bickering with each other with great amusement, quoting scriptures and cursing each other, which was really fun.
"Lu Qi, you only have one day left of vacation."
The cruel Lord Longzun spoke cold words with his handsome face, and his beautiful thin lips opened and closed, cutting off Lu Qi's happiness.
Lu Qi looked up from the Yuzhao screen, his eyes wide in shock.
"What?!" She quickly got up and almost fell off the rocking chair. "How could it be so fast... Where did my vacation go?!"
Dan Feng glanced at her and calculated the time it would take for her to travel over the past few days.
"On the first day after your return, you made an appointment to meet Jingliu and Baiheng. On the second day, you went to the Industrial and Manufacturing Division to give Yingxing a gift. On the third day, you stayed in bed and played with Yuzhao. On the fourth day, you stayed in bed and played with Yuzhao. On the fifth day, you went to Linyuan Realm to cause trouble. On the sixth day, you stayed in bed and played with Yuzhao. On the seventh day, which is also today, how do you want to spend your last vacation?"
The one-week vacation was clearly arranged, and Lu Qi couldn't help but sigh.
"Yu Zhao has done a lot of harm to people," she said sadly, then straightened up, "But you're wrong. I clearly went out on the third day."
Some time ago, the employee of Dihengsi recommended by Bai Heng got in touch with Lu Qi, and she even went out to treat him to a meal.
She didn't tell Danfeng in advance that she was going out to play, so when she came back after dinner, she found that Danfeng had already prepared dinner.
Lord Long Zun, who rarely cooks in person, forced Lu Qi to have a second meal. She could only eat the digestion pills and the dishes made by Dan Feng with tears in her eyes.
Dan Feng cooks delicious food, but Lord Long Zun doesn’t cook often, so sometimes Lu Qi cooks for himself.
As a useless college student and a medical officer of the Yunqi Army, Lu Qi can only cook some simple dishes, such as instant noodles and self-heating rice. He is indeed far inferior to Dan Feng.
So she could never save the money in her pocket and spent it all on eating, drinking and having fun outside.
Once Dan Feng starts cooking, she will take over her refrigerator, fill it with ingredients, and give her a delicious meal as a gift.
Lu Qi should have made the profit.
"Do you want to bring up old things?" Dan Feng raised his eyes and said coldly.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong!" Lu Qi was flexible and apologized immediately.
To appease the bad-tempered Lord Long Zun, Lu Qi wanted to put Yu Zhao aside and go for a walk. But after thinking carefully, was there any place in the Immortal Boat that she had not visited?
Even Brother Jingyuan and Brother Yingxing's homes had been ruined by her, so it would be better for everyone to get together again on the last day of the holiday.
She opened a group chat of six people and chatted happily on it.
The name of the group was changed by Lu Qi. It was previously called "A Loving Family", but she thought it was too rustic, so she changed it to the current "Six Swordsmen of Luofu", which looks tall, mighty and unstoppable.
Although she was the only one in the group who didn't know how to use any weapons, Dan Feng didn't use a sword either, but a spear.
[Cosmic Little Sun (Lu Qi): Family, what are your plans for the last day of the holiday?]
A few seconds later, Bai Heng replied to her.
[Fox Man Online (Bai Heng): Why are you still on vacation? I've already started working!]
[Yue Shang Yun Xiao (Jing Liu): What kind of job do you work for? I just saw you driving a Star Cha through a red light. How can you drive a Star Cha while working?]
[Fox Man Online (Bai Heng): I'm working part-time, Didi delivery service, you know, if I don't deliver it soon, I'll be charged for the overtime.]
The two of them started chatting about the food delivery and had already put Lu Qi's initial questions aside.
Fortunately, Jing Yuan showed up quickly to show his support.
[Practicing swordplay 10,000 times a day (Jing Yuan): Haha, I don’t have any vacations at all.]
Jing Yuan's words sounded sad, but they were true. Last time, during his rare day off, Lu Qi pulled her over to work, and after finishing the work, he was responsible for carrying her back even though she fell asleep from exhaustion.
When Lu Qi thought of Jing Yuan's still somewhat childish face, he felt guilty.
[Cosmic Little Sun (Lu Qi): Come on, brother Jingyuan! When you train hard and can fight one against a hundred, you'll be the one protecting a small logistics person like me! (fist pumping.jpg)]
In fact, Jing Yuan had been on missions with the army a long time ago, but his skill points were basically in strategy, and his martial arts skills were only mediocre among these people.
Even so, even though Jing Yuan usually acts like a little kitten, he can actually beat ten Lu Qis without blinking an eye.
It's just that he joined the ranks of his master Jingliu, and under the requirements of Jingliu, the King of Scrolls, he needs to work harder to practice martial arts.
Everyone, human or ghost, is working hard, except Lu Qi who is still playing badly.
Several people in the group chatted about Jing Yuan's training progress, and finally turned the topic to Lu Qi. They decided that Lu Qi should not lie down and should also experience the taste of training.
Everyone knows that Lu Qi has now embarked on a prosperous life. Regardless of the length of his life, he is definitely more resilient than before.
Jingliu was very interested in teaching, and even Jingyuan encouraged him, saying that he must watch Lu Qi's induction tomorrow.
[Cosmic Little Sun (Lu Qi): I'm just a healer? Please let me go!]
[Yue Shang Yun Xiao (Jing Liu): Next time if you encounter a bountiful evil creature and we're not around, do you still want to use the Star Raft to self-destruct?]
[Foxman Online (Bai Heng): She can't drive the Star Raft anymore. I've read Danfeng's report. He's Xiaoqi's boss, and he's already revoked Xiaoqi's Star Raft application—yes, she can't drive without a Star Raft.]
[Little Sun of the Universe (Lu Qi):?]
She had no idea about this, and Dan Feng didn't tell her!
Lu Qi turned around and saw Dan Feng still sitting there drinking tea. He quickly handed Yu Zhao over, turned on the screen and put it in his face to ask him to explain.
"What's going on?" Lu Qi asked, "Why don't you open the Star Raft for me?"
"Why would you drive a Star Raft? Going off to perish along with the evil creature of abundance?" Dan Feng calmly put down his teacup and looked up at her. "And you even used it to hit someone. I've heard all the black box recordings you brought back."
"Those were all accidents," Lu Qi said stubbornly. "Huai Ci suddenly appeared. I wrote in the report that the self-destruction with the Abundant Evil Creature was a last resort. This doesn't prove that my Star Rafting skills are inadequate..."
"If you want to apply, wait until your medic rank is higher. Not now. If you really want to, you can apply to become a pilot. Once you pass the test, you can be assigned a Star Raft."
"Before that..."
"You're driving my Star Raft," Dan Feng said suddenly, "it's for your temporary use."
Lu Qi: “.” No wonder there are so many high-tech gadgets in the Star Chariot. It turns out they aren’t essential…
Lord Long Zun’s kindness was beyond her ability to repay, so Lu Qi could only servilely say that she would work harder to be a good maid in the future.
Of course, Dan Feng thought that what she said was nonsense. What did she mean by being his little maid? He was the one who took care of her in daily life. If someone didn’t know, they would think that Lu Qi was the one who paid her salary.
Finally, a group of people decided to go to Jinren Lane for dinner tonight. After they made the decision excitedly, Ying Xing, who had not participated in the process, popped up in the group chat.
As soon as he appeared, he raised a question mark.
[Blacksmiths line up (Ying Xing):?]
[Blacksmith Queuing (Ying Xing): What did you decide behind my back?]
Dan Feng also showed up.
[Canglang Duanchaoke (Danfeng): Look through the chat logs yourself.]
[The blacksmith's queue (Ying Xing): Too long, I won't read it.]
Bai Heng summarized very kindly.
[Foxman Online (Bai Heng): Let's go to Jinren Lane for dinner at 7pm tonight. Danfeng's treat.]
[Canglang Duanchaoke (Danfeng):? I never said that.]
[Fox Man Online (Bai Heng): Xiao Qi said she's treating, doesn't that mean you're treating? In the end, you're still the one paying.]
What Bai Heng said made a lot of sense. Lu Qi didn't dare to say anything and could only smile ingratiatingly.
Fortunately, Dan Feng would not argue with her too much about money. He just kindly reminded her that her debt was increasing instead of decreasing, and was heading straight for 810,000 Xundi.
Lu Qi exclaimed, "It's impossible. It was only 800,000 last time. How come it suddenly increased by 10,000 when I opened my eyes?"
If I continue to owe this much, I'm afraid it will take me my whole life to pay it back.
"My Yuzhao also received your shopping bill. Do you want me to send it to you?" Dan Feng asked.
Lu Qi covered his ears and pretended not to hear.
No need to listen. Once she finishes the raid and returns to the real world, this bill will no longer exist!
Yes, Lu Qi had no intention of paying it back. After all, who would seriously pay back a debt while playing games? At least not her.
Fortunately, Danfeng had a lot of assets, which could support Lu Qi. His salary was also incredibly high. His previous incarnation left him a lot of money, which was more than enough to support Lu Qi.
But he couldn't just give her money for free, so Dan Feng still held the title of creditor, and his actions became more and more legitimate.
It was naturally great to be treated to a meal, and the opportunity to make a killing from Dan Feng made Ying Xing feel refreshed. He promised to leave work early today and meet up on time.
Jingyuan also complained about him during the break.
[Practicing Sword 10,000 Times a Day (Jing Yuan): Brother Ying Xing, that's not called leaving work early, that's called coming to work on time.]
Ying Xing naturally ignored him. After all, how could a craftsman's work be called overtime?
He backhanded @ Lu Qi.
[Blacksmith Queuing (Ying Xing): @Cosmic Little Sun, I've researched the materials you brought, and made you a protective gear with the remaining parts.]
[Cosmic Little Sun (Lu Qi): Great! Brother Ying Xing, you’re awesome! Love you!]
Those two words were annoying no matter how he looked at them. Dan Feng quickly used the administrator's rights to withdraw Lu Qi's words.
[Blacksmith Queuing (Ying Xing): I saw it, it's no use withdrawing.]
[You have been banned by the administrator]
Ying Xing was amused by Dan Feng's petty behavior and decided to put protective gear on Lu Qi in front of Dan Feng after they met. He made gloves and added some extra decorations to make them look good.
When the meeting started, Ying Xing arrived early and saw Lu Qi running towards them like a cannonball from afar.
Behind her, Dan Feng was walking slowly. The robe he wore was embroidered with obvious gold thread, making him look like a peacock with its tail spread out.
Ying Xing ignored him and smiled at Lu Qi.
"You've come just in time. Try these gloves on for size."
Ying Xing is a craftsman. Although he is a short-lived person, he used his superb skills to break into the Industrial Manufacturing Company and successfully gained a considerable say in it.
Unfortunately, his life span was limited, and in the immortal boat Luofu where immortal species were everywhere, he could never become the one in charge of Gonggongzaosi.
However, Ying Xing is not interested in power. As long as it does not affect his research and manufacturing, he will not compete with others for it.
Now he can leave work whenever he wants and take a vacation whenever he wants. The ingenious things he makes can be patented without being snatched away by others, and the materials he wants will not be withheld. He can even use the best materials to make this pair of gloves for Lu Qi.
"Brother Ying Xing is so amazing, he must be suitable!"
Lu Qi spoke sweetly and extended his hand.
Her hands were small, and the heat in her palms was almost as high as Ying Xing's, full of blood. The back of her soft hands felt quite fleshy, and it was quite comfortable to rub them.
Ying Xing put on the gloves for her and tightened the red straps.
The gloves themselves were made of white fabric, but Ying Xing did not hastily change its color. Instead, he added some brighter colors to it.
It doesn't look as handsome as the black gloves on the market, but it is also a unique item made by Ying Xing.
"The density of its fabric allows you to hold your weapon tightly without exerting too much strength," Ying Xing explained proudly. "I've placed a Jade Omen unit inside and re-engraved the gravity circuit. After wearing it, you can even lift a Star Raft with one hand—I didn't ask you to lift me up, put your hand down!"
After being scolded, Lu Qi could only pinch his ears and put his hands behind his back obediently.
"Okay, I'm just curious..."
"Then you go to raise Jingyuan later."
"All right."
Lu Qi pouted.
Not long after, Jingliu and Baiheng arrived together, while Jingyuan rushed out from the night market street of Jinren Lane, holding several drinks in his arms and a string of Qiongshi bird skewers in his mouth.
"Everyone is here, come over and share," Jing Yuan waved happily at them. "Oh, this cup is for Sister Lu Qi. This time it's full of sugar, is that okay?"
"Great! Jingyuan brother, I love you so much!"
The little bastard who was full of sweet talk once again said something that made Dan Feng frown, but Jing Yuan glanced at Dan Feng with a smile after hearing it.
"Don't keep saying things about love or affection, or someone will get jealous."
"What are you talking about? Who would be jealous? I love every one of you so much!"
Who is Lu Qi? She is a master at balancing things, she wants it all!
But before falling in love, there is one thing left to do, and it's time to do it.
She waited for the moment when Jingyuan was unaware, and after he had distributed the drinks, she suddenly grabbed Jingyuan's waist and lifted him up.
The white-haired boy's vision immediately turned upside down, and he showed a confused expression.
Jing Yuan: “?”
What happened?
