A Single Person's Infinite Wonderful Life

Li Wei blew a breath toward the door, and the wooden door became semi-transparent, allowing all three people to clearly see what was happening inside.

Inside the room, Sanshokuin Kagetsu was straddling her husband, like a wildcat, constantly slapping his face with both hands. Sanshokuin Masataka knew he was in the wrong and had hurt his wife's feelings, so he didn't dare to fight back. He was even careful to cover himself, afraid of hurting her, and was thus being "beaten" unilaterally.

Kusami Tsuki smiled and said, "Isn't your relationship with your uncle and aunt very good?"

Sumireko Sanshokuin sighed and said, "Even I was fooled by them. Although it's not the first time I've been fooled, this time, even I couldn't tell the difference between the real and the fake. Fortunately, my husband had enough patience to observe, otherwise, we would have gotten into trouble instead."

Li Wei smiled and said, "As long as the two of them can make up, that's fine."

The situation for Sumireko Sanshokuin is much better than that for Kusamizuki; at least her family has been saved. However, Masataka Sanshokuin will have no status in the family from now on.

Just as the three were about to leave, the door opened, and Sanshokuin Kagetsu, who had already thoroughly enjoyed her performance, said with a smile, "Don't rush off yet, how about staying for dinner?"

Although the beauty before him was just an ordinary person, Li Wei inexplicably shivered. This beauty might have yandere tendencies. He could only feel sorry for Sumireko Sanshokuin's father. Once a girl's yandere tendencies are brought out, it's not an easy thing to put them back in.

Li Wei quickly said, "Mother-in-law, you're too kind. I would really like to stay and hear about your and Father-in-law's youthful days, but I really have something to do, so I won't be having dinner here."

Li Wei promised Xiang Yun that he would pick her up when she got off work. He couldn't go back on his promise to a woman; that was Li Wei's bottom line.

Sanshokuin Kagetsu smiled and said, "That's a real shame, but we can always have lunch here, right? It's almost ten o'clock now, so let's stay and have a simple meal."

Li Wei, Kusamizuki, and Sanshokuin Sumireko exchanged glances, and both girls nodded slightly.

Chapter 1. Revealing Strength

Throughout lunch, Li Wei and the two girls felt uncomfortable. After all, Sanshokuin Masataka had black eyes and a smeared face, while Sanshokuin Kagetsu next to him had a smiling face. Li Wei had a feeling that this smiling beauty had turned evil.

After lunch, Li Wei and Sanshokuin Masataka went to the courtyard. The two men sat in the pavilion and enjoyed a leisurely afternoon tea.

Sanshokuin Masataka said, "My dear son-in-law, that blue-haired girl next to you, is she also one of your people? Your good fortune is truly enviable."

Li Wei laughed and said, "Don't let your mother-in-law hear this, or you'll be in big trouble, father-in-law. Your face will be all scratched up."

Sanshokuin Masataka could only smile wryly. He was in the wrong, and how could he possibly lay a hand on a woman? He sighed inwardly, realizing that he still had to take responsibility for the spoiled brat he had raised.

Sanshokuin Masataka also secretly wanted to have women on both sides, but the grapevines at home were too powerful. Today's encounter was already too much for him. If it happened a few more times, would he still have any face left?

Although his wife was beautiful, they had been together for so many years and were very familiar with each other. The initial novelty had long since worn off, and even the initial love had gradually turned into familial affection. Therefore, when he saw Li Wei with other girls besides his daughter, he felt very envious.

As for the fact that Li Wei has more than one woman by his side, if Li Wei's self-proclaimed identity is true, then this is not a problem at all. With Li Wei's status, even if he wanted to live like an ancient emperor, it wouldn't be a problem. In this era, although money can't do everything, it can do most things, which naturally includes things like opening a crystal palace.

Li Wei laughed and said, "Father-in-law, you have a meeting this afternoon. It would be terrible if the people below saw the scars on your face."

Sanshokuin Masataka said with a wry smile, "What can we do about it?"

Li Wei smiled and said, "It's a small problem, easy to solve."

Li Wei snapped his fingers, and Sanshokuin Masataka felt a warm sensation on his face. The wounds that had been painful before were now completely numb.

Sanshokuin Masataka touched his face and found that the scratches had healed completely without leaving any marks.

Li Wei laughed and said, "Father-in-law, you can find a mirror and see what your face looks like."

Sanshokuin Masataka took out his phone, turned on the camera, and switched the camera to selfie mode. He could see his face clearly; his face, which was originally covered in scars, had returned to normal.

Sanshokuin Masataka looked shocked and said, "This isn't magic! Son-in-law, what kind of method did you use to make my face heal so quickly!"

Li Wei laughed and said, "This is indeed not magic, but spell."

Sanshokuin Masataka's mind raced with thoughts. Businessmen are often superstitious. Sanshokuin Masataka's success was due to his own abilities, but also to the help of luck. So every year, he and his wife would go to Senso-ji Temple to pray for a smooth year ahead.

Now, having witnessed extraordinary power firsthand and personally experienced its convenience, Sanshokuin Masataka realized that Li Wei's identity was definitely not as simple as it seemed. No matter how rich someone is, they're still just an ordinary person; only those who possess extraordinary power are truly superior.

Sanshokuin Masataka said with a strange expression, "Who exactly are you, my dear son-in-law? Such power has already surpassed the scope of scientific explanation. I am not a superstitious person, how could I possibly know?"

Li Wei laughed and said, "I am indeed an ordinary person, but I have mastered some extraordinary methods. In ancient times, someone like me would sometimes be revered as an immortal, and sometimes be despised as a demon."

Li Wei waved his hand, and the air in mid-air condensed into a dragon that slowly swirled up and down around the pavilion.

Sanshokuin Masataka reached out his hand, and the dragon came to him, rubbing its head against his palm, while at the same time, a deep rumble came from its throat.

Sanshokuin Masataka's face showed a shocked expression, because this was not an illusion; when he withdrew his hand, there were still stains on it.

Li Wei laughed and said, "This dragon can easily destroy a small town. If it were in the Warring States period, this dragon alone could determine the course of the entire world."

Li Wei raised his hand, and the dragon soared into the sky. At the same time, the dragon began to expand rapidly, like a balloon being inflated. The originally clear sky darkened, and from below, one could see a colossal creature appearing and disappearing in the clouds, its body winding and coiling like a giant snake, accompanied by thunderous sounds. Sanshokuin Masataka was utterly shocked.

The power Li Wei wielded was truly astonishing. This ability to manipulate celestial phenomena, let alone in ancient times, would make him a god or demon surpassing all living beings, even in modern times. Sanshokuin Masataka was both surprised and somewhat fearful. Just what kind of extraordinary son-in-law had his daughter chosen for him?

Sanshokuin Masataka is a somewhat snobbish person. On the surface, he is very polite to everyone, but in reality, he is only truly polite to a very few people. He has a slight sense of superiority over those who are not as successful as him.

To earn his respect, one must either be more powerful or wealthier than him, or possess a special expertise in a particular area, such as musicians, artists, culinary masters, or artisans who preserve traditional crafts. Even if such people are penniless and powerless, he will still show them considerable respect. However, ordinary people should not even think about gaining his attention.

Because he possessed considerable talent, Sanshokuin Masataka arrogantly believed that mediocrity was the original sin. But now, he finally understood what it meant to be outmatched and to be invincible. In the face of absolute divine might, human wealth and power, as well as personal talent and ability, were so insignificant.

Sanshokuin Masataka gaped, a sense of fear gripping him. Just moments ago, he had touched the head of that enormous creature in the clouds. It turned out that the small dragon's true form was so terrifying.

Having no direct understanding of magic, Sanshokuin Masataka mistook the giant dragon rising from the clouds for a real being. He didn't know that the enormous creature was merely a creation of magic, and it would dissipate once the magic power within it was exhausted.

Li Wei said, "Father-in-law, besides trying to mediate the relationship between you and your mother, there is another matter I have come to visit you on."

Sanshokuin Masataka sat up straight and said with a serious expression, "Please speak, my dear son-in-law. As long as it is something I can do, I will certainly not refuse."

Sanshokuin Masataka already knew that Li Wei was someone he couldn't normally reach, so he now placed himself in an even lower position and spoke with great respect.

Chapter 1. Parents' Blessings

Li Wei said, “Father-in-law, you must have seen my power. Although I am an ordinary person, I do not belong here. In a while, I will be going back to where I belong. I will be taking Jinzi with me. I will not hide such an important matter from you and mother-in-law, so I need to tell you in advance so that you can be prepared.”

Sanshokuin Masataka already understood. In his opinion, although Li Wei said he was an ordinary person, it was just a lie to be taken seriously. Anyone who believed it was a fool. Someone like Li Wei must be a god-like being, and gods naturally have their own place to stay, which certainly wouldn't be a place like the mortal world.

Being able to follow Li Wei was a blessing for Sumireko Sanshokuin. After all, as Li Wei's companion, Sumireko would undoubtedly reap considerable benefits. Legend has it that when certain ancient people became gods, their wives or spouses would also enjoy blessings and become deities. In his view, Sumireko Sanshokuin would most likely enjoy such benefits, and as a father, he was happy that his daughter had a bright future.

Li Wei, who possesses the ability to read minds, saw what Sanshokuin Masataka was thinking and was somewhat surprised. Although the man in front of him had many flaws, he was still a passable father.

After learning about the relationship between Li Wei and Sumireko Sanshokuin, Masataka Sanshokuin's first thought was not how to gain benefits from Li Wei, but whether his daughter could find happiness. This alone was enough to make Li Wei look at him with new respect.

Sanshokuin Masataka sighed, “Children will eventually leave their parents’ side. However, I didn’t expect it to happen so soon. She’s only seventeen years old this year. I originally thought that someone as picky as her would have a problem getting married before she turned thirty.”

Li Wei simply smiled. Any girl would approach this situation with the utmost care, after all, it concerned her happiness for the rest of her life. However, many girls are also foolish; once they've chosen someone, they'll stubbornly stick to their choice even if everyone around them objects. This choice is entirely a gamble. If they're lucky, they might find a hidden gem and achieve a happy life; if they're unlucky, like Xiangyun, they'll live a miserable existence.

Sanshokuin Masataka said, "My dear son-in-law, I hope you can truly treat Sumireko well. I know you have other girls around you, but at the very least, don't neglect her. This is my only request as a father."

If Li Wei were just an ordinary person with power and influence, and dared to treat Sanshokuin Sumireko badly, he would teach Li Wei a lesson, even at the cost of mutual destruction. But Li Wei was not an ordinary person; he was a god or demon who transcended ordinary people. Such an existence was simply not someone he could afford to provoke, so he didn't even have the right to make verbal threats.

Li Wei smiled and said, "Father-in-law, you don't need to worry about this kind of thing. She is my treasure, the most precious person in my heart. I can't even bear to see her shed tears, let alone do something like that."

Sanshokuin Masataka nodded. In his opinion, someone like Li Wei was a man of his word, and now that there was a guarantee, he could put his mind at ease.

Meanwhile, Sumireko Sanshokuin told her mother about her relationship with Li Wei and also showed her the power they had gained. Although Kagetsu Sanshokuin couldn't accept it at first, she eventually let it go and chose to bless Sumireko Sanshokuin.

Around four o'clock in the afternoon, Li Wei met Sanshokuin Sumireko and Kusamizuki. Both girls were wearing some new accessories.

Li Wei looked at the gold necklaces around the two girls' necks. Both girls' gold jewelry was exceptionally beautiful, with a simple yet elegant design, and the quality clearly indicated they were antique pieces passed down from their ancestors. Unlike ordinary gold jewelry, the necklaces around the girls' necks featured a unique mesh design, made with ample material, yet exuding understated luxury without being flashy.

Li Wei said, "Jinzi, Yue, did your mother-in-law give these to you?"

Sumireko Sanshokuin nodded and smiled, “My mother already knew I was leaving this world, so she gave us both her most treasured gold jewelry. These things are said to have been passed down from my great-grandmother, dating back to the early 10th century. They were made by top Western craftsmen of that time and are extremely precious.”

Sumireko Sanshokuin belongs to the type of family whose ancestors were once wealthy. Although the family fortunes declined for various reasons, by the time of Masataka Sanshokuin, the family had returned to its peak, and even surpassed it, thanks to reliable personal abilities and good fortune. At least, the first head of the Sanshokuin family was just a medium-sized merchant at the time, but now, the Sanshokuin family is a multinational corporation. Although not a top-tier business, it is much stronger than a medium-sized business.

Although the family had fallen on hard times, the descendants who were good at preserving the family business did not squander the legacy left by their ancestors. If they had squandered everything, it would have been impossible for Masataka Sanshokuin to revive the family's reputation in just over a decade. Even if you want to gamble, you need to have enough capital to participate in a game. The ancestors of the Sanshokuin family had accumulated enough capital.

It was precisely because the Sanshokuin family left behind many good things that the two girls were able to obtain their current "equipment." However, Li Wei did not expect that even Kusamizuki would be able to get a share. Sanshokuin Kagetsu was quite generous in this regard.

Li Wei laughed and said, "They are all quite beautiful. These ornaments can be transformed into magical artifacts for self-defense. Without affecting their appearance, various defensive spells can be added to them. Although it is safe for me to be around, you can never have too many of these kinds of protective gear."

Li Wei was a man who liked to plan ahead. Although the girls on the floating island were safe, he still liked to increase their self-defense capabilities so that if the worst happened, the girls wouldn't be powerless to fight back against external enemies.

Although Li Wei was not the cautious and brave type, he always considered the strength of his potential enemies and therefore made preparations as thoroughly as possible.

Sanshokuin Sumireko smiled and said, "Thank you, my husband. It's all thanks to you that I understand now that the situation between my parents wasn't as bad as I thought. Shall we go back now?"

Li Wei said, "Go back? My mother-in-law has already agreed to let you stay at my place?"

Sumireko Sanshokuin nodded, a shy blush spreading across her face. She recalled the methods her mother had taught her for controlling men, methods that, for her, were still somewhat excessive.

Chapter 1. Preserving Surprises in Life

Li Wei stretched and felt relaxed after the matter was resolved. Different people have different fates. The situation with Sanshokuin Sumireko was a perfect ending, but with Kusamizuki, although things were no longer a mess, some cleanup was still needed. At the very least, Li Wei still had to take care of Kyoko.

As for Xiangyun, Li Wei had made several preparations. Xiangyun herself had additional defensive spells, and there was also a paper crane hovering above her head. Even if something unexpected happened, even if Li Wei was not present, the paper crane alone could save her life.

After saying goodbye to Sumireko Sanshokuin's parents, Li Wei took the two girls and rode back to the mansion on a cloud. As for the carriage, they could drive it back slowly.

As the white cloud landed in their courtyard, the two girls jumped down from it. Their physical abilities had surpassed the limits of ordinary people. Even if they jumped from a height of several meters, they could land lightly like falling leaves. For ordinary people, jumping from such a height would result in broken legs at the very least.

Looking at the still-falling white clouds, Sumireko Sanshokuin sighed, "After getting used to this speed, ordinary transportation feels so slow. And it's so much more carefree in the sky. On the ground, no matter how luxurious your car is, if you get stuck in traffic, you have to obediently follow the flow of traffic."

The advantage of being in the sky is that you don't have to worry about traffic jams. With current human technology, we can't create a private vehicle that every household can afford. We probably won't see that in the 10th century. So, when you ride the clouds in the sky, you don't have to worry about traffic jams there.

Kusami Tsuki laughed and said, "I'm just hoping that my cultivation level will be high enough so that I can learn the art of movement. That way, I can be free to fly in the sky. Sitting on a white cloud is great, but it still feels like something's missing."

Sumireko Sanshokuin laughed and said, "It's not that Shirokumo is lacking; you just want to be able to travel freely, right? To be honest, I want to too."

The feeling of being on your own is different from being led by someone else. When you're on your own, you can choose the route, altitude, and speed yourself, and do whatever you want. But if you're riding a white cloud, you have to tell Li Wei in advance where you want to go.

The three entered the house, and the two girls pulled Li Wei towards the bedroom.

Li Wei said, "This is the direction of the bedroom."

Kusami Tsuki laughed and said, "We know."

Li Wei said, "Why go to the bedroom at this time? I still have more than an hour before I have to pick up my mother."

Kusami Tsuki smiled and said, "An hour or so is enough; it won't interfere with our business."

Sumireko Sanshokuin, standing nearby, also wore a playful smile. Both girls had slight blushes on their faces. Li Wei, who wasn't using his mind-reading ability, had no idea what the two girls were thinking.
