I Alone Am Immortal: My Rebirth and Leisurely Cultivation

Chapter 483 Blindfold Game
"Whee!"

Mei Mengqian smiled slyly and winked at Zhuzhu over there.

"Zhuzhu, I've blocked it for you, he can't make a sound."

Jiang Yingzhu couldn't see what was happening over there, but upon hearing this, she gave a thumbs up and smiled brightly.

"Well done, Mengmeng."

However, when Li Yan turned his head, she saw the plum blossom sugar painting in his mouth and her smile immediately vanished.

The mouth was blocked.

But it didn't say that it was blocked like that.

Jiang Yingzhu glanced at Mengmeng.

Mei Mengqian blinked, a little guilty, and asked, "What's wrong, Zhuzhu?"

"Nothing."

As Jiang Yingzhu spoke, she noticed that Li Yan had finished eating the sugar painting, so she reached out and poked her own into his mouth.

Seeing this, Mei Mengqian did not react.

"Oh."

Today's classes consist of consecutive math and physics lessons.

Everyone was a little tired.

So nothing special happened during the math evening study session.

Li Yan was questioned by Jiang Yingzhu and Mei Mengqian while seated.

"What did you do with your senior this afternoon?"

"I took a stroll around the city."

"Where should we go?" Mei Mengqian asked.

"My old junior high school, my senior's elementary school, and then I'll go for a walk in the snack street. There aren't many places to visit in Huangcheng, are there?"

The two nodded, agreeing that Huangcheng was indeed the case.

People always yearn for the places where others reside.

Jiang Yingzhu was a little curious when she heard that they had also gone to No. 15 Middle School and a primary school.

"How did you get into No. 15 Middle School? We couldn't get in last time."

"They sneaked in while the students were at school."

Students are developing earlier than ever before, even though Li Yan and Hua Junshu are both high school students.

But there's absolutely no problem with him hanging out with junior high school students.

Jiang Yingzhu nodded, thinking it was a good idea.

However, after a while, she felt that it wasn't suitable for her.

Because I had once outwitted and outmaneuvered the security captain.

Her face is her status symbol.

Previously, you could enter and exit by scanning your face, but now facial recognition will identify you as abnormal.

Mei Mengqian was curious about her senior's elementary school.

"Where did you go to elementary school, senior?"

"Right over here."

"Did you go in?"

"Yeah, we climbed over the wall to get into the elementary school."

Li Yan paused for a moment, then said, "I looked around and came out."

Elementary school students these days don't develop as dramatically as they did later on, so it's easy to spot the two big guys as soon as they walk in.

Unlike later years, when some students were taller than their teachers and had precocious, mature, and dignified appearances.

Someone who didn't know better might mistake him for a school leader.

Jiang Yingzhu and Mei Mengqian didn't ask any more questions; they needed to do their homework for the rest of the time.

Today's homework was a bit difficult.

And since it's my senior's birthday today, we'll definitely be doing something fun after evening study.

Jiang Yingzhu's eyes darted around; she was already getting excited about playing.

For a moment, I couldn't concentrate on the math problems at all.

Evening self-study quietly ended, and she still had two pages of questions left to do.

"Never mind, I'll copy it tomorrow morning, it's Chinese anyway."

Very well, this is the daily humiliation of the Chinese language.

Li Yan stood up and led his two deskmates out of the classroom.

Jiang Yingzhu rubbed her stomach. "Li Yan, let's buy some food before we go back."

"it is good."

"By the way, did you buy a cake for your senior? Mengmeng and I ordered a big cake from the cake shop on the back street at noon."

"Did not buy."

"That's good, let's go get the cake first!"

Jiang Yingzhu talked as she walked, gesturing wildly as if she wasn't afraid of hitting anyone.

Mei Mengqian glanced at Zhuzhu, then looked around at the corridors and stairwells.

Previously, the corridors and stairwells were pitch black after evening self-study sessions.

Especially in many classrooms where people left early, the classroom lights had already been turned off, so there was no light at all.

The corner of the staircase was particularly dark.

Because there are no lights in the stairwell either.

She heard Yu Qingya say that some shameless boys would deliberately bump into girls.

Although she had never encountered it.

However, now not only are the corridors brightly lit at night, but even the stairwells have them.

With Zhuzhu being so lively, there's no need to worry about her bumping into anyone.

They met up with Hua Junshu at the school gate, and the four of them prepared to split into two groups.

Li Yan went to the back street to get the cake, while Jiang Yingzhu, Hua Junshu, and Mei Mengqian strolled around the food stalls and bought some late-night snacks.

They then met up directly at home.

Unlike the front street in front of the school gate, the back street was much quieter.

However, the Fourth Hospital is located at the end of the back street, so there will be no shortage of foot traffic.

When Li Yan arrived at the cake shop, it was being cleaned.

The shop owner is Ling Ningshan's brother-in-law; I saw him last time we had barbecue.

Upon seeing Li Yan, he greeted him warmly.

"Isn't this Shanshan? What would you like to order? I'll give you a discount!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yan shook his head, "No need, I'm here to pick up the cake. Two girls ordered cakes here at noon."

"Oh, I knew it was wrapped up!"

Ling Ningshan's brother-in-law smiled and nodded, then went to the back to get a beautifully packaged two-tiered fruit cake.

"This is all made with animal-based cream, and the fruit inside is all the freshest. You can eat it without worry!"

Li Yan nodded, glanced at the cake, and thought it looked quite good.

He took the cake from Ling Ningshan's brother-in-law and turned to walk out.

At that moment, a woman in her forties or fifties came to the counter with several loaves of bread.

"Bill, please."

"The caterpillar-shaped bread, the milk-flavored sheet, and the whole wheat toast are all 23 yuan each. You can give me 20 yuan."

Upon hearing this, the woman frowned. "Didn't your store used to offer discounts of up to 90% and buy-one-get-one-free deals?"

"You mean that cake shop from before? I did own it, but it went out of business later, didn't it?"

"This place is owned by someone else, I'm just working for them. Girl, we're all just working, so please don't make things difficult for me."

Ling Ningshan's brother-in-law just blurted it out.

Two regular customers in the store nodded in agreement.

"Yes, Auntie, the owner of this shop is a woman. I saw her last time."

"Yeah, I even had that auntie deduct his wages last time, she was really fierce."

Upon hearing this, the woman took out twenty yuan to pay, but was still somewhat reluctant.

"How could a perfectly good company go bankrupt? They're really useless."

Ling Ningshan's brother-in-law took the money, smiling broadly without offering any explanation.

Finally, she glanced at Li Yan as he walked out of the door.

The cake shop's business was able to recover thanks to this little student.

When Li Yan returned home, he was greeted by the strong smell of fried skewers and stinky tofu.

Jiang Yingzhu and her friends were each eating a bowl of fried skewers, while a large bowl of stinky tofu sat on the table.

They kept their distance from Laba, their eyes filled with disdain.

It's as if it's saying that the two-legged creatures have picked up poop to eat again.

Twelve, meanwhile, circled around and under the table, panting and sticking out its tongue, making a pleading sound towards Jiang Yingzhu and the others.

Jiang Yingzhu and the others would throw him a piece of meat, and Twelve would eat it.

But I still crave the stinky tofu on the table the most.

Unfortunately, he was too young to reach it, let alone jump up.

"Laba, hurry up, teach Twelve how to climb a tree."

Li Yan waved towards Laba Festival on the balcony.

Laba's ears twitched, but he completely ignored it.

"Hurry up and put the cake down. It's already 10 o'clock. If you don't blow out the candles soon, your senior's birthday will be over."

Jiang Yingzhu urged.

Mei Mengqian nodded, "We'll be playing games later." Li Yan walked over and sat down, placing the cake in the center of the table.

Upon opening the packaging, Jiang Yingzhu immediately picked up the candle beside her and began to insert and hold it.

Mei Mengqian lit the torches on the side, lighting one torch after another.

Li Yan picked up the birthday crown that came with the package and went to his senior.

"Shushu, put it on."

Hua Junshu lowered her head slightly, and Li Yan raised his hand, taking the paper crown and putting it on her head.

The crown is a little small, but it can be inserted into the senior's hair.

Meanwhile, the candles have already been lit.

"Xiao Qi, turn off all the lights!"

Jiang Yingzhu called out, and the room immediately went dark, with only the seventeen candles shining brightly.

The sun shines brightly on the flowering tree.

Li Yan and the other two stood on either side of her, and Laba also came over.

"Meow~"

"Should we lead the singing on Laba Festival?"

Mei Mengqian smiled, exchanged a glance with Jiang Yingzhu and Li Yan, and the three of them sang "Happy Birthday" together.

As the song ended, Li Yan looked at Hua Junshu, who had a faint smile on his face.

The warm yellow candlelight shone on her face, completely melting away the coldness, as if outlining the warmth and liveliness of her childhood.

The smile on that little face, framed by the red scarf, was even brighter than usual.

So much so that Li Yan, Jiang Yingzhu, and Mei Mengqian were surprised to find that their senior had dimples when she smiled.

It's just that her smiles used to be too subtle to be noticed.

"Senior, hurry up and make a wish and blow out the candles!"

"Ah."

Hua Junshu nodded gently, closed his eyes, and made a wish.

Then he leaned close to the cake, took a deep breath, and exhaled sharply.

"call--"

The candle went out, and Li Yan told Xiao Qi to turn on the lamp.

Jiang Yingzhu asked her senior with a smile what wish she had made.

"I can't say it, otherwise it won't work."

"Um, okay."

"Senior, cut the cake, have some, and we'll start the game later."

Jiang Yingzhu smiled mischievously and glanced at the group with great interest.

You'll never guess what we're going to play this time.

Li Yan remained expressionless, as if to say, "I really guessed it, but you're not happy about it."

Mei Mengqian and Hua Junshu exchanged a glance, both very curious.

They couldn't think of anything more exciting than the game they played last time.

Seeing their expressions, Jiang Yingzhu seemed to have thought of something happy and started to smile.

Li Yan cut a piece of cake and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Well!"

Jiang Yingzhu couldn't laugh; she wanted to grab a handful of cake and smash it in Li Yan's face.

But after tasting the cake, I couldn't bear to part with it.

"So delicious!"

Jiang Yingzhu's eyes widened, and she cut a piece herself instead of letting her senior cut it for her.

Seeing this, Hua Junshu and Mei Mengqian also cut off a piece to try.

Laba squatted to one side, her round eyes staring at them, looking very well-behaved.

Li Yan knew that it was thinking about what this thing was and whether it tasted good.

It's been a long time since I last ate cake.

Laba's small head couldn't remember it very clearly.

What it can determine is whether this thing is edible.

"Stop looking, have a bite."

Li Yan cut it into a small piece.

After the four of them tasted the cake, Jiang Yingzhu went to get the game props.

Li Yan and the other two were puzzled when they saw her come out with an eye mask and a large box.

"Zhuzhu, what's this? Do you want to play hide-and-seek?" Mei Mengqian asked.

Hua Junshu thought so too.

"Of course not!"

Jiang Yingzhu would never go back to an old flame. "Today, let's play a masked guessing game."

Upon hearing this, Hua Junshu and the other person felt as if they had heard the name before.

It seems to be a music variety show.

Li Yan looked at the eye patch, which looked exactly like something you'd see in some short videos.

Where did you buy this?

"Buy online, where else can you buy it?"

Jiang Yingzhu said something, threw the blindfold on the table, and then began to explain the rules.

"The rule is simple: one of us four will be chosen to wear a blindfold."

Then the three of us took turns stimulating the designated person's senses using different items and methods.

The designated person must guess the feelings described in the item description.

Jiang Yingzhu chuckled and took out her family's heirloom card box.

"Hmph~, if you guess wrong, you'll be punished. Here's a punishment I've carefully chosen!"

Mei Mengqian and Hua Junshu looked at the familiar card box and nodded.

"And if you guessed right?" Mei Mengqian asked.

"Mengmeng, you are very confident."

Jiang Yingzhu raised an eyebrow and gave a mischievous smile. "If you guessed correctly, you can command the other three designators and choose the next person to be blindfolded."

Upon hearing this, Hua Junshu and Mei Mengqian felt that it would be better to win.

The punishment for losing is too inconsistent.

They can't be sure that the one they draw will be the one they like.

"Can you give me anything?" Li Yan looked at the box next to Jiang Yingzhu.

"Of course, anything you have at home is fine, but don't go overboard."

Jiang Yingzhu seemed to have thought of a possibility, her face flushed, and she glared at Li Yan.

Li Yan was baffled; he hadn't done anything wrong.

Hua Junshu and Mei Mengqian seemed to be deep in thought, finding it quite interesting, and had already begun to think of ways to prank them.

However, considering that all three of them were given something to guess, Hua Junshu couldn't help but ask.

"Do you expect all the items to be the same? It's hard to guess correctly on three tries."

"Of course not, you only need to guess right once."

After Jiang Yingzhu finished speaking, she waved her small hand.

"Now let's begin. As the initiator of the game, I've decided that Li Yan will be the first one to be blindfolded!"

Mei Mengqian and Hua Junshu also turned their attention to Li Yan and nodded in unison.

"I agree."

"I agree that the minority should submit to the majority."

Li Yan rolled his eyes and took out the swivel dial that Jiang Yingzhu had passed down through generations.

"I disagree. The first time should be left to fate."

"However, I can do it if you want, but if I guess wrong, I should be given the opportunity to give the order. That way, it's fair."

Jiang Yingzhu, Mengmeng, and the senior exchanged glances and decided it was better to leave it to fate.

Otherwise, it would be too easy for Li Yan.

So the four people stood in four directions and placed the turntable in the middle.

Jiang Yingzhu had Laba extend its paw and flick it, and the long pointer on the turntable immediately began to spin.

Finally, the pointer pointed exactly at Li Yan.

Seeing this, Jiang Yingzhu pointed at Li Yan and smiled.

"Kuku! Even the heavens have sent you, what else do you have to say?!"

Li Yan glanced helplessly at Laba Festival.

"Tell me, whose cat are you?"

"Whoa!"

When Laba saw that the hands of the clock had stopped turning, it stretched out its claws again.

I'm addicted to it.

"Stop resisting. Will you put it on yourself, or should I put it on for you?"

Jiang Yingzhu picked up the eye mask.

Seeing this, Li Yan reached out and took it, then put it on himself.

The blindfold was large and tight, leaving no blind spots. As soon as Li Yan put it on, everything went dark.

"We need to get ready. Please sit down and wait a moment."
