How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

Hongli: "Huh?"

Hei Yang: "Ah, I mean, Xiao Li, you're naturally long-lived, you don't need to do this!"

Hongli: "That's more like it..."

Hongli happily accepted the birthday gift that Hei Xiaoqi had prepared for her: "Thank you, Sister Xiaoqi!"

"Haha, I hope you like it."

Hei Xiaoqi smiled mysteriously, held up a finger, and said, "How about we leave you in suspense, Xiao Li? We'll open this gift when we get home?"

"oh oh!"

Hongli was taken aback, and her little hands, which were about to crumple the exquisite packaging, suddenly stopped: "Ha, since Sister Xiaoqi said so, then I'll definitely listen to her!"

Hei Xiaoqi: "Hehe."

"me!"

Xingyun had just refilled her wine glass when she saw Hei Xiaoqi giving her a birthday present. She instantly realized what was happening and pulled out her own carefully prepared gift: "This little wooden carving is for Sister Hongli. Hmm, it's not wrapped, haha, I forgot..."

"Well……"

Hongli took the palm-sized wooden carving that Xingyun handed her. The carving depicted Hongli running with a spear, and it was so lifelike that Hongli felt as if she had a miniature, living version of herself in her palm.

"Absolutely awesome!"

Hongli exclaimed in surprise, "Xiaoyun has this skill too?"

"Hehe, just kidding around."

“It’s simply…”

Hei Yang also looked at the little red glass with admiration, making a fair assessment: "What's most remarkable is that even those dead fish eyes have been replicated..."

"Bah bah bah."

Hong Li rolled her eyes at Hei Yang, then held out her hand with her palm facing up: "Hmm? Give it to me!"

"Ok?"

Hei Yang was taken aback, hesitated for a moment, and then gently placed his palm on Hong Li's hand: "Hmm?"

Hongli: "!!!"

"Hmm, my foot!"

Hongli abruptly pulled her hand back, unable to help but yell, "Are you really stupid or just pretending? Give me the birthday present you prepared! Don't tell me you didn't have one!"

"Hmm, if you don't have that, then you're doomed, I'm telling you!"

"This is hilarious, hahaha."

Hei Yang took out a storage bag he had prepared beforehand and handed it to Hong Li: "Why don't you just say it directly? Why do you have to play riddles?"

"Wow, I thought we were so familiar with each other that we could communicate instantly with just a glance!"

I understand now. I was just being delusional. It turns out the clown was myself!

"Alright, stop being sarcastic."

"whispering sound."

Hongli took the storage bag: "Well, a storage bag as a gift is not a bad idea. After all, I will have to change back my aunt's storage bag when she comes back, and it will be a bit inconvenient if I lose a lot of it."

But, how should I put it... um, it feels like sending a bag or something is a bit lacking, it feels like just giving a ready-made item as a perfunctory gesture.

But it's alright, I'll just reluctantly accept it..."

What are you babbling on about?

Hei Yang couldn't help but complain, "The storage bag is for use as a gift box. The real gift I prepared for you is inside. I won't be perfunctory. Why don't you open it and see?"

"Ah?"

Hongli was stunned for a moment, then opened the storage bag: "Sure enough, there really is one. You didn't put me in the trash can, did you...?"

Hmm, she has quite a few spirit stones. It's reasonable for her boyfriend to give her pocket money!

And then, was that a dress?

Damn, she knew Hei Yang was up to no good. Fine, she'd let him off this time...

Wait, what are those white and black things? Hmm, something feels off...

"Ok?"

Hongli turned to look at Heiyang, her face full of confusion.

[Hei Yang: That's right, those are clothes too, a gift for you!]

[Heiyang: Wait a minute, let me show you!]

[Black Sun: [Images][Images][Images]]

Hei Yang took a picture of the model's photo from Teacher Hua Baibai's clothing catalog and sent it to Hong Li.

[Heiyang: How is it? Doesn't it look great and beautiful?]

[Hongli: ???]

[Hongli: Who in your family wears this out?!]

[Hei Yang: You can wear this.]

[Hongli: ???]

[Hongli: No, this is too...]

[Black Sun: Hey, what's with your attitude? I knitted this myself!]

[Hongli: Huh?! Really!!]

[Black Sun: Absolutely true!]

[Hongli: I'll trust you just this once in a while... No, that's not what I meant. What I meant was...]

[Hongli: I'll die! I can't do this! Wearing this thing, I'll really die of shame!]

[Hei Yang: Then you don't have to wear it outside... can you wear it so I can see?]

[Hong Li: !!!]

[Hong Li: You cunning Hei Yang, aren't you? Hong Li will never yield!]

[Black Sun: Are you going to betray my good intentions?]

[Hongli: Uh, um... ptooey, you're morally blackmailing me, you're inhuman, shameless!]

[Black Sun: Tie them up! Tie them up!]

[Hongli: ???]

[Hei Yang: It's okay. Look, I specially put it inside for you so that no one could see it.]

I'll give you plenty of time to think it over; you can decide for yourself whether to wear it or not...

[Hong Li: Impossible, absolutely impossible!]

[Hong Li: No matter how much time you give me to consider, I, Hong Li, will not wear this kind of thing for you!]

[Black Sun: Hehe.]

[Hongli: ???]

[Hongli: What the hell do you mean?!]

"What's wrong, Xiao Li?"

Hei Xiaoqi looked at Hong Li, whose face was flushed, just like Xingyun next to her who had been drinking, and who was even steaming...

"Did Xiaoyang send some strange gift?"

"Ha, no, no, it's just..."

Hongli waved her hand guiltily: "It's just... well, what he gave me was nothing special, just something to upset me, that's why I was so angry, haha... it's nothing, just kidding!"

"Huh? Σ(|||▽|||)!"

Little Fire was suddenly startled and looked around. "Oh, I'm sorry, Mom, Little Fire didn't prepare a gift because I've been busy these past few days... Let me pluck the prettiest feather for you, Mom! Please don't be angry with me!"

"Ha, what do you mean by silly girl?"

Hongli gently stroked the little fire and smiled, "Aren't you my best gift? And you even brought back Dad for Mom... um, you know what I mean!"

Little Fire: "Waaah, Mommy's so good!"

Hei Yang: "Tsk tsk, poor thing, the child must have suffered a lot with his stepmother..."

Hongli: "If you can't speak properly, then shut up!"

Amidst the laughter and chatter that followed, Hongli remained absent-minded, her mind wandering to the gift Heiyang had given her, and she couldn't help but imagine herself wearing it...

hiss---

Don’t do that kind of thing!

But what if he really wants to see it...?
