I Alone Am Immortal: My Rebirth and Leisurely Cultivation

Chapter 482 Hmph~ (Bonus Chapter 22)

"Walking in the wind, the sunlight suddenly feels so gentle today~"

Li Yan walked into the classroom, humming a song from the radio.

As the evening break was about to end, quite a few people arrived at the classroom.

Many people greeted him as he walked in.

"Student Committee Member".

"The class representative is here."

Li Yan found it a bit strange; he noticed that everyone who greeted him liked to glance at his pants.

He carried his things back to his seat and his eyes met those of his classmate.

Mei Mengqian knew he was coming in.

So she moved aside and naturally avoided eye contact.

"There's something fishy."

Li Yan narrowed his eyes, walked into his seat, and sat down.

Just then, Jiang Yingzhu and Lin Yufan and a few others came in hand in hand.

Jiang Yingzhu was taken aback when she saw Li Yan in the seat, and subconsciously asked:

"Why are you back so soon?"

“Yes, Li Yan, Zhu Zhu said you went to get a circumcision, so you should rest for at least half a day.”

Lin Yufan nodded, while glancing curiously at Li Yan's lower body, which was hidden by the table.

Li Yan was speechless for a moment before he finally understood why those people were looking at him.

He looked at Jiang Yingzhu, who guiltily looked away.

"I was just joking, who knew they would believe me."

“I don’t feel like that.”

Li Yan sneered.

I told you I can't drink alcohol, and you've been spreading rumors that I won't live much longer, haven't you?

Okay, okay, Jiang Yingzhu, having you is my blessing.

Li Yan then looked at his classmate sitting next to him, sitting upright and looking intently at his book.

"Mengmeng, you didn't say anything bad about me, did you!?"

"No, I swear!"

Yu Qingya and the other woman realized that they had been deceived by Jiang Yingzhu, so they testified.

“We can prove that Mengmeng only helped Zhuzhu prove that you went to get a circumcision, and didn’t say anything else.”

"Heh, you guys have a pretty clear division of labor."

Yu Bing, who was following behind the group, peeked out, along with Guo Cailing.

"Of course, I'll also vouch for Mengmeng!"

Li Yan chuckled, took out the snow-sweet buns he was carrying, opened them, and handed them to Yu Qingya, Lin Yufan, and the other two.

"These are desserts I bought on my way here, I'm giving them to you."

As he spoke, he opened the package.

Inside the elegant white paper box, four fist-sized snow crisp buns were revealed.

The snow-white pastry is a color that gradually changes from pale white to translucent white, with each layer having a snowflake-like cracked pattern on the surface.

It looks incredibly delicious.

This left Lin Yufan and Yu Qingya, who were about to refuse, speechless.

Especially when they smell that sweet aroma.

It's neither too oily nor too light, but has a rich and enticing aroma.

Not to mention those who saw the snow crisp buns, even people eating in the corridor couldn't help but follow the smell.

This smell is really enticing.

Jiang Yingzhu's eyes widened in disbelief.

Mei Mengqian, sitting next to Li Yan, had a clearer view.

She quietly swallowed.

"Thank you, Li Yan!"

Yu Bing's words broke the brief silence. She ran to the seat and took the box.

He took one out and gave it to Guo Cailing.

Wow! It's still hot!

Seeing this, Jiang Yingzhu's gaze darkened slightly as she looked at Li Yan, thinking to herself, "Why is this guy like this? My Xue Su Bao!"

Yu Qingya and Lin Yufan, no longer caring about their composure, pretended not to see Zhuzhu's reaction and returned to their seats to enjoy the snow crisp buns.

Jiang Yingzhu pouted and returned to her seat, glanced at Li Yan, and then turned her head away.

"Humph!"

Mei Mengqian blinked, realizing that the bag Li Yan had been carrying earlier was more than just a box of Xue Su buns.

She was too embarrassed to do it herself, so she looked at Zhuzhu and reminded her:

"Zhuzhu, I just saw that there was something in the bag that Li Yan brought back."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yingzhu's eyes lit up, and she turned to look at Li Yan.

"Really?"

A wicked smile appeared on Li Yan's lips.

"Don't laugh, take it out now!" Jiang Yingzhu couldn't help but push Li Yan.

The aroma of the delicious desserts that Lin Yufan and the others in the back row were eating made her drool.

Yu Bing would take a bite and exclaim, "So sweet, so soft, so fragrant!"
Yu Bing would say something, and Guo Cailing would chime in, as if they had received money from the Xue Su Bao shop owner.

"hurry up!"

“Exactly,” Mei Mengqian chimed in.

Li Yan felt the expectant gaze of his childhood sweetheart and the restless look in his deskmate's eyes.

His wicked smile widened, he crossed his arms, turned his head, and pouted slightly.

"Humph!!"

That was even more impressive than Jiang Yingzhu's.

"Pfft!"

Yu Qingya and Lin Yufan, who were eating and watching what was happening ahead, almost choked on their food.

He covered his mouth and coughed silently, his eyes full of laughter.

"Hey! Li Yan, your imitation is nothing like what you're doing."

Yu Bing finished eating the sweet and refreshing snow crisp bun, wiped her mouth, stood up and stretched her arms, puffed out her cheeks and pouted, and turned her head forcefully.

"Humph~"

She gave a small hum, stirring up bits of food that hadn't been wiped clean around her mouth, as a demonstration for Li Yan.

"You should pronounce it like I do, using your nose."

Upon seeing this, Lin Yufan and Yu Qingya collapsed onto the table, their shoulders trembling.

Mei Mengqian couldn't hold back any longer. She turned around, lowered her head, and let out suppressed laughter.

Jiang Yingzhu was speechless, initially embarrassed, then speechless, and finally finding Yu Bing's demonstration amusing. So she stood up and said with a forced smile:
"What are you learning? You're just a little kid, do you even reach my height?!"

"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river!" Yu Bing clenched his fist and said something he'd heard somewhere.

"Thirty years still? You're already in your second year of high school. You'll be fully formed in three more years at most."

Yu Bing sat down indignantly, thinking to herself, what's so good about being tall?

As the saying goes, if the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up.

She's so carefree; even the heavens can't do anything about her.

Jiang Yingzhu subdued the elementary school student and then turned to look at Li Yan.

"And you, are you out of your mind, Li Yan? What are you doing!"

"Humph!"

Li Yan remained silent, a wicked smile playing on his lips, only humming softly.

Lin Yufan and Yu Qingya in the back row were almost over when Li Yan came over again.

The deliberately imitated voice was so funny that he immediately started coughing again.

Jiang Yingzhu dug at the sole of her shoe with her foot, then couldn't help but pinch Li Yan's face.

"Study, study, study some more! Are you out of your mind?!"

Li Yan snorted again, but Jiang Yingzhu blocked his mouth with her hand, preventing him from letting it out completely.

Jiang Yingzhu was both annoyed and amused. She pointed at him and made a fierce face.

"You're not allowed to learn that anymore. I'm nothing like you."

Jiang Yingzhu imitated Li Yan's actions from earlier.

Li Yan nodded, "I'll definitely do it next time."

"Hen, you want a next time?"

Jiang Yingzhu glared at him, and although she wanted to snort, she held back.

When some people act like idiots, you really want to tear them to pieces.

Jiang Yingzhu only regretted that she didn't have a knife.

On Li Yan's side, after Mei Mengqian finished laughing, she secretly rejoiced that she didn't have any bad habits.

That's just too much.

I played a prank on my childhood sweetheart to punish her for talking nonsense.

Li Yan took out the things he had brought for them.

He then took out two boxes of snow crisp buns and gave one to Jiang Yingzhu and one to Mei Mengqian.

"Don't eat yet, there's more."

As Li Yan spoke, he took out two more sugar paintings.

One is a golden bamboo, with slender bamboo stalks and fluffy bamboo leaves, every detail is clearly visible. The bamboo leaves even sway with the movement of Li Yan's hand, just like a real small bamboo, lifelike.

The other one is also golden, but it's shaped like a plum blossom.

Like a plum blossom picked from a tree, the plum blossoms are in full bloom, with slender branches and delicate petals that resemble the veins of naturally growing leaves.

A sweet fragrance wafts out, just like the natural radiance of this yellow plum blossom.

Bathed in light, it seemed to be breathing, so lifelike.

Upon seeing the two sugar paintings, everyone around was amazed, their eyes lighting up.

"So beautiful!" Guo Cailing exclaimed.

Yu Qingya nodded repeatedly, her eyes glued to the screen. "It's amazing! It looks so real!"

Ling Ningshan watched with utmost focus and couldn't help but say:
"It's like a work of art!"

Her hobby is drawing, so she naturally understands how difficult it is to draw these two sugar candies.

"Class monitor, where did you buy it?" Lin Yufan asked.

"Street stalls".

Li Yan casually said, "But these two weren't painted at a roadside stall; I painted them myself."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding crowd was surprised.

Ye Hui said, "That's amazing. Li Yan, why don't you record a video and post it next time?"

"Yup!"

"Want to see it!"

The others echoed his agreement, and Li Yan nodded with a smile.

The sugar painting was handed over to Jiang Yingzhu and Mei Mengqian.

"Eat."

"It's so beautiful." Mei Mengqian looked at the golden plum blossom in her hand.

She wondered if these flowers could be considered a gift from Li Yan.

It's made with sugar, but it's still very good.

It feels better than the real thing.

"If you don't eat it, it will dissolve over time."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yingzhu opened her mouth without hesitation and bit off most of the bamboo leaf.

A sweet feeling melted in her heart. She squinted her eyes and said to Mei Mengqian:

"Mengmeng, don't keep it. When we get back, have him carve an identical one out of stone."

Mei Mengqian's eyes lit up, while Li Yan glanced at Xiao Qingmei.

"You're quite good at ordering people around, huh?"

"This is wisdom!"

Mei Mengqian didn't join in Jiang Yingzhu and Li Yan's bickering; she wasn't very good at it either.

She didn't eat the plum blossom candy immediately, but took a few photos first.

I took nine photos from different angles and then posted them on my social media.

I really like the flowers I received today.

After posting it on her social media, she didn't pay any more attention to it, picked up the sugar painting and took a small bite.

The maltose spread in my mouth.

Very sweet.

My unhappiness at not seeing my deskmate all afternoon vanished instantly.

Mei Mengqian ate the candy while opening the snow crisp bun.

Suddenly I remembered the box that Li Yan had given away.

"Li Yan, was that box you were carrying your senior's?"

"Yes, she won't eat it. She said she'll leave it for you."

"Senior is still the best," Jiang Yingzhu said, glancing at someone. "Some people are just petty."

Upon hearing this, Li Yan's lips curled into a smile.

Seeing this, Jiang Yingzhu's expression changed, and she reached out to cover his mouth.

"Mmm"

Li Yan turned his head to avoid Jiang Yingzhu's hand, but he still couldn't make a sound because half of the plum blossom sugar painting blocked his mouth.
