How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

However, they not only don't dislike the other person's behavior, they actually like it very much!

In some people's eyes, this may be a kind of morbid possessiveness.

However, in Hei Yang Hong Li's mind, this means that she is cared for and valued by the other party, which gives her a sweet feeling of being protected.

In fact, if one day those layers of thick spiritual energy were suddenly no longer protecting them, it would make them feel very insecure!

It's like watching a horror movie alone at home and then covering yourself with a blanket, or like someone with social anxiety habitually wearing a coat and mask to wrap themselves up tightly when going out...

Clearly, from the perspective of normal mental health, Hei Yang Hongli are actually somewhat "abnormal" problem children.

This is not surprising, and they did not feel anything was wrong, after all, they had always been "not very sociable" since childhood.

As mentioned before, they are both too sensitive and easily angered by the slightest provocation. Therefore, they habitually build an impregnable wall around their hearts, shutting out the world.

Close family members can enter the "living room," which is closest to the heart of their souls, but only each other can go into the "bedroom" and sleep in each other's arms.

Enveloping the other party with mental energy is not meant to monitor them, but rather to warn them and protect them.

It's like two naive children crawling into a cardboard box, back to back, poking holes in it, and warily looking around.

"Is there any situation on your end?"

"Safety... There's a suspicious ray of light to your right front. Be careful."

"I understand... The air in front of you feels a bit dangerous too, don't let your guard down."

"I understand..."

It's hard to call this kind of mental state healthy; part of the reason for their lazy personalities is that they waste too much energy on this.

Of course, a little mental strain cannot mask the fact that they are inherently lazy!

Although I didn't do anything today, I still felt bad for myself.

Congratulations to myself for surviving another day safely and healthily.JPG

To paraphrase Aunt Hongling, it's fortunate that these two people with the same illness went to the same destination; otherwise, it would have been of no benefit to society.

However, the young couple firmly denied Hongling's claim.

Ask around in Wuse City, and everyone who knows them will know that the two of them are the most harmless.

It's clearly a romantic love story between a kind-hearted boy and an innocent girl who grew up together!

Perhaps they did have a bit too much internal monologue, but it's harmless!

But Aunt Hongling said it in such a nasty way, ha!

There are plenty of couples who are even more excessive and lovey-dovey than them!

However, Hei Yang Hong Li also understands that it's normal for an older single woman like her aunt to not understand their loving relationship.

Let's be a little more understanding of her and not reopen old wounds. As long as my aunt is happy!

Even if they are both suffering from the same illness, it only affects the other person, so there's no problem at all!

In the end, my aunt is still too pitiful; she doesn't even have anyone to talk to about her illness. Tsk tsk...

So Auntie must have said those sour things because she was jealous of the love between the couple!

Hongling, who was inexplicably pitied and labeled an "older single woman": ? ? ?

........................

Two young mothers nearby were still discussing their children.

Xingyun praised Xiao Huo from beginning to end, and then turned the topic to her own Gaga.

"Um, Sister Hongli..."

Xingyun looked somewhat conflicted and asked, "What kind of cool name do you think we should give Gaga when he grows up?"

"Hmm? What do you mean by naming?"

Hongli looked at the little fire crane that Xingyun was holding with a puzzled expression: "Isn't 'ga ga' just 'ga ga'?"

"Haven't we already chosen a name? Why do you suddenly want to change it?"

"Oh no, you've misunderstood Sister Hongli."

Xingyun quickly explained, "My dad told me that 'gaga' is more like a nickname used by relatives and elders, like when my dad used to call me 'Xiaoxiao' or 'Aiyaya' when I was little and I didn't say anything..."

I mean, when Gaga grows up and introduces herself to people, she'll need a proper formal name, right?

"Oh ho?"

Hongli seized on the key word, then looked at Xingyun with a comical expression: "Xiaoxiao? Is that Xiaoyun's nickname?"

"Huh? Sister Hongli, what did you say?"

Xingyun looked puzzled: "Why don't I understand?"

Hongli repeated it again in a soft, melancholic tone: "Laughing~ Laughing~"

"Sister Hongli, I don't understand what you're saying... Ugh, it's still so embarrassing!"

Xingyun finally couldn't hold back and broke down instantly.

She had originally planned to pretend nothing had happened and get away with it!

However, the honest girl had almost no talent for disguising herself, and she couldn't help but blush when the cunning and treacherous Hong Li used a slightly strange tone.

"Don't laugh at me, Sister Hongli!"

Xingyun pleaded pitifully, "Please!"

Little Gaga is still here!

"No way, why would I laugh at you, Xiaoyun?"

Hongli smiled like a flower, but refused to admit it.

"I just think Xiaoyun's nickname is cute and sounds nice!"

"Even the cutest and most beautiful songs can make people shy!"

Xingyun pouted, a little embarrassed, and asked, "Doesn't Sister Hongli feel embarrassed when her nickname is called out in public?"

"Huh? Me..."

Hongli was stunned for a moment, and before she could think of what to say, Heiyang answered for her.

"Actually, her nickname is Xiao Li."

Hei Yang explained in a low voice, "We've always called her that since we were little."

Well, in other words, even now, Hei Yang and the elders still call Hong Li by her nickname.

"Ah, that seems to be true."

Hongli snapped out of her daze. Because she was always called that, she couldn't help but think of her nickname.

"That's what Hei Yang has always called me."

When I was little, my parents and other relatives called me that too…

"?"

A question mark popped up above Xingyun's head.

"Hehe, Xiaoyun, you've disappointed me, haven't you?"

Hongli was amused by Xiaoyun's adorable, bewildered expression: "I don't have any embarrassing history in this area for you to find out~"

"Ah? Why is this happening?!"

Xingyun's face fell: "I thought I'd hear some of Hongli's childhood secrets."

"Well, well, well, as expected, Xiaoyun is still Xiaoyun. Even if she suddenly has some tricks up her sleeve, she's still so naive."

Hong Li smugly said, "Trying to turn the tables on me? Didn't expect I don't even have an embarrassing nickname, huh? Oh ho ho—"

Hong Li let out a villainous laugh.

Don't be discouraged by small wins.JPG

"Damn it, I should say as expected of Sister Hongli, she's still so powerful..."

Xingyun looked on with awe, took a deep breath, adjusted her mindset, and said resolutely, "Just wait, Sister Hongli, one day I will definitely catch up with you!"

"Then let me enjoy your futile struggle."

Hong Li snorted, her face showing arrogance: "You dare to challenge me, your courage is commendable."

However, this is the only thing you deserve praise for.

"I won't give up!"

A fighting spirit ignited in Xingyun's eyes.

"Stop it, no more inexplicable bursts of enthusiasm."

Hei Yang looked at Hong Li's inscrutable expression, his dead fish eyes wide, and tapped Hong Li's head with his finger: "Still pretending, huh? Be normal for once!"

And Xiaoyun, don't believe everything she says! If you believe everything Hongli says, you'll miss the New Year!

"Oh!"
