A Single Person's Infinite Wonderful Life

Sitting not far from Li Wei, Akino Sakura sighed and said, "Another important matter has been accomplished. There are no activities scheduled for the near future, so the student council members can take a break for a while."

In order to make the dance a success, Li Wei temporarily added positions for student council members. Although the dance is over now and keeping so many members is not very useful, Li Wei does not intend to burn bridges. Anyway, he is not short of money. It's just a matter of supporting a few more members. It's a small problem.

Next, the only major event the student council will face is the school festival. However, this kind of large-scale event is not solely the student council's responsibility. Instead, the students themselves take the initiative to organize various activities. The student council only needs to guide and maintain order, as well as handle various emergencies. The workload is actually about the same as the original Flower Dance Festival.

Li Wei laughed and said, "Consider this period as a paid leave for the student council. There are still about half a month until the school festival. For this kind of event, the student council can only play a supporting role at most, and there's nothing for us to do."

School festivals in Japanese anime are often considered important plot points. In many anime that focus on school life and everyday life, school festivals are a symbol, and can even be used as turning points in the story.

Li Wei wasn't particularly interested in school festivals unless there were some interesting events, like those in anime where many classes would set up stalls, decorate their classrooms as cafes or maid cafes, or even do a haunted house adventure.

These are just some of the more representative events. Other things that are common at temple fairs, such as fortune telling, ring toss, air gun shooting, and goldfish scooping, may also occasionally appear at school festivals.

If it's an idol anime, there will also be activities like students organizing school idol performances. In short, all sorts of "demons and monsters" who have been suppressed for too long take this opportunity to run wild, giving people a Halloween feeling.

Akino Sakura sat on Li Wei's lap and leaned against his chest, saying, "It's a pity that you and I are neither in the same grade nor in the same class. Otherwise, I could have gone to the school festival with you. The school festival activities are all organized by class. I rarely show up at class activities, so it would be a bit unreasonable if I didn't stay with my classmates at this time."

Sakurahara Momo, who was standing nearby, said, "Sakura, at least you and your husband went to the same school, right? Tsukimi and I, on the other hand, went to Tangchangpu High School, which is more than ten kilometers away."

Kusami Tsuki, who was standing next to him, nodded in agreement. The school festival at Nishiki Tsutsumi High School wasn't a day off like Sunday, but rather a week, which was like giving the students a three-day mini-holiday.

This is good news for the students of Nishiki Tsubasa High School, but for those students who live far away at Karasu High School, they will have to ask for leave if they want to come here to participate in the school festival.

Sakurahara Momo clapped her hands and laughed, "I might as well just ask for leave that day. Anyway, academics are no longer a big deal for me. Given my usual performance, asking for a day off is a very simple thing."

Kusami Tsuki said, "Senior is really cunning. As the student council president, it's indeed easy for you to ask for leave, since it's not a long holiday, just a day off. But it's not so easy for me to ask for leave."

Sakurahara Momo laughed and said, "Tsukimi, I'll take care of your vacation. I'll arrange it for you. I have a good reason to help you get a short vacation of 3 days. It's just a 3-day vacation, it's very simple."

Kusami Tsuki nodded and said, "Since you have a way to help me get leave, then I don't need to worry anymore."

Li Wei said, "An activity organized by class... Hmm... what new activities should we come up with for this school festival?"

The activities were all rather unoriginal. Whether it was setting up a food stall or opening a coffee shop, they were all tired old tricks. Li Wei had no interest in these monotonous activities.

Li Wei asked, "What kind of activities did our class hold last year when we were still in the upper grades?"

Hinata Aoi said, "A cosplay-themed restaurant, but then again, since we're just ordinary students, we don't know much about this kind of thing, so everyone thought last year's event was pretty bad."

·Requesting flowers·· ······

Hinata Aoi recalled the classmates who were in charge of cosplaying. Because their props and makeup skills were not professional enough, the final result was quite an eyesore. So much so that later, the classmates decided to change the cosplay-themed restaurant to a parody cosplay-themed restaurant. After adding the word "parody" to the name, the customers who came to the restaurant stopped complaining. After all, it was already made clear that it was all for the show and was a parody.

Li Wei possesses the ability to read minds. Through Hinata Aoi's memories, he saw the hilarious things that happened during last year's school festival. It has to be said that the cosplay done by the students in his class was really low-budget. If it weren't for the word "parody" in front of it, it would be easy to criticize.

.

The girls were alright; a few were willing to show some skin and even wore bunny girl outfits, which saved the themed restaurant's popularity. The boys' outfits, however, were a disaster area, with some really cringe-worthy cosplays. Seeing those outfits, Li Wei felt embarrassed for Hinata Aoi.

There's nothing wrong with girls wearing bunny girl outfits to him in private, but he, with his extremely strong possessive nature, doesn't want girls wearing bunny girl outfits to expose themselves to others. The girls who wore bunny girl outfits to save the day last year were members of another popular clique in the class. Those girls were proper delinquent girls who worked as "daddies" outside, willing to take on any kind of hard work, so they naturally didn't care about selling their bodies. That's why they were willing to wear extremely erotic bunny girl outfits and let the boys' fiery eyes scan their bodies.

Li Wei said, "Anything that you want to do perfectly will inevitably cost money. With limited resources, it's understandable that various problems will arise. This year, barring any unforeseen circumstances, this school festival will be our last school festival in this world. I don't care about the cost; I just want to make this event a success. This year, I'll pay for the class activities and make our class shine."

"Great!" Hinata Aoi exclaimed excitedly. After last year's disastrous event, she and Levi shared the same thought: to make the event a success, and she couldn't care less about anything else.

Chapter 1. Wedding Ideas

Sumireko Sanshokuin laughed and said, "If we, a small group of people, make a decision about this, I'm worried that the other students will feel excluded. So, let's have a short meeting after school on Sunday to brainstorm together. That will definitely be better than us just thinking about it here."

Li Wei said, "That works too. Besides, what you said, Jinzi, is indeed true. We should respect the opinions of other students. Maybe someone will come up with a good idea."

Many people are confident in their thinking abilities, but there is an old saying that "three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang." Although there are many opinions among many people, and it is sometimes difficult to reach a consensus, having more people is still an advantage if it is simply about offering ideas.

Looking at the empty and desolate venue, Li Wei said, "Let's go home first. We can leave this venue to the professional staff."

The girls nodded and followed Li Wei out of the rest area, heading towards the outside of the venue via a special passage. At the school gate, a rather large RV was parked there. The girls would change out of their dresses inside the RV. After all, putting on and taking off dresses is very troublesome, and doing it themselves is quite tedious. So the girls helped each other with dressing, and now they were doing the same with taking off their dresses.

After the dance ended, most of the students who attended left the school. Now, apart from a few clubs still active, there was no one to be seen on campus. Li Wei led the girls back to the RV. The RV, expanded by spatial magic, had an interior volume similar to a regular apartment and even had a separate changing room. After the girls entered the RV, they went straight to the changing room. After everyone went in, Li Wei originally wanted to follow, but before he could even step over the threshold, the door was already locked.

Li Wei said in a low voice, "It's just that I did some exercise while wearing a formal dress, is it really necessary to be so wary of me?"

Inside the locker room, the sounds of girls laughing and joking could be heard.

Li Wei sighed and sat down on the sofa in the living room, waiting for the girls to come out after changing their clothes. A voracious reader, Li Wei took a book from his library, opened it, and began to read quietly.

Knowledge is worthless to some, but priceless to others. Li Wei has collected quite a few literary and artistic works from around the world recently. He's currently looking at the works of Haruki Murakami's counterpart in this world. This counterpart is also a perennial Nobel Prize nominee, having won the prize twice in 2014 and 2015, and then consistently finishing as a runner-up. Li Wei glanced at the works of this Murakami counterpart, then looked into the works that Murakami's counterpart had won despite not being nominated, and inwardly marveled at how this world's literary scene was a veritable free-for-all of geniuses. He had collected hundreds of interesting works alone, intending to read them at his leisure.

Besides various popular literary works, Li Wei also reads a large number of art collections and landscape photography collections. Moreover, being quite wealthy, he also acquired some paintings that interested him. The "Mysterious Oriental Guest" who has been making a large-scale purchase in the international art market recently is one of his puppet doppelgangers.

Taking off their dresses was no easy task; it took about thirty minutes before the girls gradually emerged.

Li Wei looked at the girls who had changed back into their school uniforms and nodded in satisfaction. Once someone is pretty enough, they will look good in anything. Moreover, he had recently changed the style of the girls' school uniform at Ximu Niao High School, making it more refined and elegant, similar to the uniforms of aristocratic academies. The girls looked even more charming in them.

Li Wei said, "Those dresses are really beautiful. I was thinking, maybe you should wear those dresses for our wedding. Ordinary wedding gowns just can't compare to them."

With a surprised expression, Sumireko Sanshokuin said, "Wedding? There are ten of us here. Holding ten weddings would be very troublesome."

Li Wei laughed and said, "Who said I was going to hold ten weddings? I'm going to hold one wedding, and I'm going to announce to the whole world that you are my brides."

Hearing Li Wei's words, the girls blushed. After all, such a thing was really absurd, and it was normal for them to feel embarrassed.

A groom surrounded by beautiful brides—such a scene could drive any man mad with envy.

Sumireko Sanshokuin said, "We will eventually leave this world. It's fine for us to leave in such a high-profile way, but our families are still in this world. Doing this might cause them trouble."

Sumireko Sanshokuin's worries are understandable, because before Li Wei leaves, he will entrust the wealth he can't take with him to their families. This means that their families who remain in this world will become rich overnight. Becoming rich overnight is not a good thing in itself; it can easily lead people astray in this glamorous world. If he becomes high-profile at this time and attracts attention, they will be exposed to the scrutiny of the outside world, attracting a large number of wolves and tigers who will not stop until they have torn their families to pieces.

Seeing the worry on Sumireko Sanshokuin's face, Li Wei, who possessed the ability to read minds, knew that he had indeed been reckless this time. The girls weren't monkeys that sprang from rocks; they also had families. It was already quite good that the girls were willing to go with him, and he couldn't go and hurt their families.

Li Wei said, "I know you're worried, Jinzi. It was my oversight. In that case, let's change it. The wedding will still be held, but we'll only invite your immediate family members. We don't need any other witnesses. That way, the transfer of wealth can be kept secret within a small circle."

The girls agreed with Li Wei's suggestion, since as long as he was still in the world, he could provide a strong and reliable protection for everyone. However, if he took them away from here, their families would lose their protection and be directly exposed to the predatory gazes of wolves and tigers.

There are no secrets in the world that stay hidden forever. Such things will be exposed sooner or later, but as long as they can keep it a secret for a few more days, their families will have more time to prepare themselves and deal with any crises that may arise.

Success without a foundation is the beginning of failure. Unexpected wealth is nothing short of a disaster for ordinary people with weak self-control. The girls' perspectives have been altered by following Li Wei, but their families are still ordinary people. For ordinary people to acquire that kind of wealth is like a child carrying gold down the street; any ruthless person with even a modicum of skill could snatch the gold from the child's hands. The girls' concern isn't about the gold being stolen, but rather that the ruthless thieves, to eliminate any future threat, would simply kill the "children."

These days, the ruthless people who make it big have no clean hands. They do things like this without any guilt, and that's what girls fear most.

Chapter 1. Kusamizuki's Special Case

Li Wei said, "In the coming days, I need to visit your parents, at least to let them know about our relationship. I also want to prepare them mentally so they won't be shocked at the wedding."

As parents, any normal person would hope that their daughter could marry a good man and enjoy the rest of her life happily. But Li Wei, that person, never thought of himself as a good person.

Moreover, holding weddings with ten brides at the same time is something that any normal person would find difficult to accept, especially since the brides, who are the main characters, are their daughters. Even if Li Wei himself put himself in their shoes, he would still find it a bit excessive.

Sakurahara Momo said, "This will probably be very difficult, and I have no hope for it. Husband, you might as well keep a low profile and not announce our relationship to our parents. That way, there will be less trouble."

Sakurahara Momo is now thinking about this from Li Wei's perspective. Although she is happy that Li Wei is willing to give them a proper title, if it leads to complications, she would rather not have this so-called title, quietly get through this period, pack her things and leave. That would be enough.

Li Wei said, "I could do that, and it would certainly save a lot of trouble, but is that fair to you? Is it fair to the uncles and aunts? At the very least, we can't let them worry. Even if we can't let them know the truth, we should at least use a white lie to soothe their hearts."

The matter of traveling through the world was an absolute secret for Li Wei, and the girls who were his partners also kept this secret. Therefore, they would not tell their parents about this, which led to the problem of how to explain their sudden departure.

The loss of a daughter raised for over ten years is something most normal people cannot accept, and even financial assistance cannot heal the emotional wounds.

Li Wei had already secretly investigated the girls' families. Apart from Kusamizuki and Sumireko Sanshokuin, whose situations were somewhat special, the other girls all came from happy and fulfilling families. They had deep bonds with their families, which is why Li Wei was trying to think from the girls' perspective and wanted to resolve the matter more effectively.

The girls could sense Li Wei's kindness. When they made the decision to leave this world with Li Wei, they were also very determined. After all, leaving their parents and families, and even leaving the world they were familiar with, to go to a completely unfamiliar place required great courage.

Li Wei's willingness to clean up the mess and take care of things for them touched them deeply. The girls saw Li Wei as a very gentle and considerate man; he had already thought of and even prepared to act on things they hadn't even noticed themselves.

The pedestrians left the RV, and Li Wei summoned the white clouds, using this method to send each girl home. Finally, only Li Wei and Kusanagi remained atop the white clouds.

Li Wei said, "Yue, let me take you home."

Kusami Tsuki grabbed Li Wei's sleeve, her face showing reluctance, and said, "I don't want to go back. I just want to stay by your side, my husband."

Li Wei knew why Kusami Tsuki didn't want to go back, but he pretended not to know and said, "Why? We have a long time to spend together in the future. I'm afraid you'll get tired of me. If we don't take this time to go home and spend time with our families now, we won't have this opportunity to spend time with them again. Once we leave this world, we'll never be able to come back."

Kusami Tsuki seemed hesitant and said softly, "I know that spending time with family is important at times like this, but my situation is a bit special. Husband, could you take my mother with you as well?"

Li Wei said, "Why? Auntie, won't you stay in this world with Uncle? I can do that, but what about Uncle?"

Kusami Tsuki gave a bitter smile and said, "I want to take my mother away because she will only suffer if she stays here. That man has completely changed because of a series of failures. Even if he becomes rich again, I don't believe he can go back to his former self."

Li Wei asked, "What's going on? Yue, is there something you're having trouble telling me?"

Kusami Tsuki said, "There's nothing hard to say about this. It's just that a man who made his fortune early got carried away after winning over his dream girl, then failed in business several times in a row, gave up on himself, and eventually became a vile person who only knew how to drink and gamble and even committed domestic violence."

Kusamizuki's words weren't long, but they contained a wealth of information; such matters couldn't be explained in just a few words. Li Wei had investigated beforehand and found that Kusamizuki's family situation was quite unique, its development almost like something out of a novel.

Kusamizuki's father was an ambitious but poor young man, while his mother was a young lady from a wealthy family. The two fell in love, and Kusamizuki was born. If the story ended here, it would be like a fairy tale. Unfortunately, reality is not a fairy tale; fairy tales are only beautiful, while reality is much crueler.

This young man earned his first pot of gold through luck, and then continued to expand his business. To outsiders, it was a happy and fulfilling family.

However, as the saying goes, success without a foundation is the beginning of failure. The higher you climb, the harder you will fall.

Sure enough, after a few years of good times, the family's situation deteriorated rapidly. Because Kusanagi's father's success was largely due to luck, he lacked the ability to manage his existing business. As a result, he was betrayed by his partners and competitors, leading to a complete loss.

Of course, he was a person who never gave up. He would get up wherever he fell. Unfortunately, as an ordinary person who succeeded by luck, his hard skills did not match his ambition. The result of his lack of ability was a series of failures, which directly cost him all of his family's savings.

If he hadn't recklessly tried to make a comeback, with the surplus he had at the time, he could have easily lived the life of a landlord, living off rent and doing nothing. His family, while not extremely wealthy, would have been quite well-off, and their standard of living would have been far above that of ordinary people.

Unfortunately, in an attempt to rebuild her business, Kusanagi's father sold off all of their important properties, leaving her family with only their own apartment building.

Her father was also completely broken down, turning into an uncle who only knew how to drink, gamble, and commit domestic violence. Now, the family is supported by her mother working as a lawyer. Although the lawyer's income is not bad, it can't keep up with the bottomless pit of alcoholism and gambling in the family, so the family has always lived a very tight life.

If it weren't for Kusamizuki's sake, her mother would probably have divorced her father long ago. As a responsible and mature woman, she chose the most difficult path, just to protect her daughter. Life's changes forced this well-off heiress to become a strong woman who supports her family.

Chapter 4. Every family has its own troubles.

It is said that every family has its own problems. Even those families that appear happy and perfect to outsiders may actually have various hidden issues beneath their glamorous exteriors.

As for Kusamizuki, even the most basic glamour was gone. Moreover, the decline of her family was a huge blow to her. Her father, who was always a cheerful man in her childhood memories, had become a greasy, violent, beer-bellied middle-aged man with a stubble beard. She could not accept this change.

When she was young, she was also a pampered princess, but as the family gradually declined, she saw that the situation at home was getting worse year by year.
