America: A Prodigy of Stereotypes

"Stephanie, let's go quickly."

Stephanie, her mouth agape in an "o" shape, left the scene.

The two of them walked three blocks in one go.

“You really are a fair player,” Stephanie said with a smile to Li Qun.

“I feel my temper is getting worse and worse, and the urge to overturn everything is getting stronger and stronger,” Li Qun said to Stephanie.

"I see, Liqun, you're also a very controlling person."

“You’ve noticed that everything around you is gradually slipping out of your control,” Stephanie said earnestly.

You're right.

“It’s not just a matter of being controlling; I also have obsessive-compulsive disorder and a kind of mental fastidiousness. I want everything to be done perfectly,” Li Qun said.

"Only God could do these things."

“You’re just an ordinary person,” Stephanie comforted Li Qun.

"I can't say any more, or it will sound like I'm manipulating you."

“What is PUA?” Stephanie asked.

“Answering ‘PUA’ is like continuing to use ‘PUA’,” Li Qun said.

“Fine, I’ll look it up myself,” Stephanie said irritably.

"Shouldn't we take you home now?" Li Qun asked Stephanie.

“We’re not on a date,” Stephanie told Li Qun.

“I didn’t mean anything by it,” Li Qun said.

Have you ever dated a girl?

"No."

Do you want to go on a date with a girl?

"With whom?" Li Qun asked.

"The girl you like."

"I don't have a girl I like yet."

Don't you like anyone?

"There's no girl I like here."

“What kind do you like? I’ll help you find something,” Stephanie said.

"I think I'll just go home," Li Qun said.

“Open your heart, you know?! Even Peter knows he likes Mary Jane, but you don’t dare say what kind of girl you like,” Stephanie said.

“Speaking it out loud would be offensive to people,” Li Qun said.

“Tell me boldly, I won’t be offended no matter what you say.”

"My nose is very sensitive; I can identify a person by their scent."

"Do I have a smell?" Stephanie asked.

“Of course, you smell of perfume.” Li Qun nodded.

"Did you feel offended?" Li Qun asked.

“It’s acceptable,” Stephanie said.

"What do I taste like?" Stephanie asked curiously.

"Well, all I can say is that it tastes good..." Li Qun smiled and scratched his head.

Chapter 329 Symbiotic Plants

Li Qun really enjoys sitting on the rooftop and feeling the breeze.

There was no particular reason; it was just because the air was better on the rooftop.

He doesn't like going shopping because the complex smells on the street can suddenly jump out and assault his sense of smell like the Hulk.

My mood can be ruined every day by the unpleasant smell of someone.

In this world where everyone has a scent, Liqun, being odorless, is the most out of place.

My father smelled of old age, Shuangxi and my aunt smelled of detergent, and my uncle smelled of cooking fumes...

When Li Qun first began to care about the smell, a portion of his attention was permanently diverted to it.

Having superhuman senses is not a good thing, as it means the brain will receive more and more complex information and will have to process more.

Daredevil Matt has super hearing, and his greatest weakness is also his super hearing. Screaming into Matt's ear can cause him to lose his fighting ability in pain.

Not all smells are unpleasant to Liqun; he prefers the smell of plants.

Both Li Qun and Dr. Banner were novices when it came to caring for plants, having little experience. The two of them learned how to care for the rare tropical plant, the Blood Orchid, from books.

Adjust the air humidity to the humidity level of the place of origin, increase the ambient temperature, increase the oxygen content, and regularly irrigate the soil with nutrient solution.

While working in the greenhouse, Li Qun and Dr. Banner controlled their breathing very slowly, afraid that the carbon dioxide they exhaled would affect the growth of the blood orchid.

The vines of the blood orchid are spreading wildly in the greenhouse. Summer is the flowering season for the blood orchid, and Li Qun and Dr. Banner are about to reap a bountiful harvest.

They were very nervous, after all, this was no ordinary flower, but a flower that could affect the genes of organisms.

The blood orchid has undergone a long evolution on Earth, developing its own unique symbiotic ability.

Any animal can potentially form a symbiotic relationship with the blood orchid.

Blood orchids optimize the gene expression of animals in their surrounding environment, making them aggressive and allowing these enhanced animals to occupy an absolutely dominant position in their current ecological niche.

The growth and reproduction of blood orchids require a large amount of nutrients, which are provided by a large number of animal carcasses in the natural environment.

After General Ross realized the value of the Blood Orchid, the animal that formed a symbiotic relationship with it changed from the Amazonian anaconda to humankind, the most intelligent animal on Earth.

General Ross was also waiting for the blood orchids to bloom.

Deep in the South American rainforest, a large plantation has emerged, where traditional crafts of the American South are being revived.

"Yeah! I love going to the market."

John Wick and Helen showed up at the weekend food market with their Labrador.

"John, come here to sign up," Wade shouted to John, holding up his hand as he stood in front of the booth where people were registering for the spicy food eating contest.

"Welcome to sign up for the spicy food eating contest sponsored by 'John's Mom'. The registration fee is $6."

“Both of us are going to participate, and I’ll pay the registration fee.” Wade took out banknotes and coins from his wallet and placed them on the small table at the booth.

"Please sign a waiver. The organizers will not be held responsible if you get sick or die from the spiciness during the competition," said a staff member from the competition.

“No problem.” Wade smiled as he watched John Wick sign his name on the waiver.

"I'll just admit defeat if necessary." John also signed his name on the waiver.

"The match doesn't start for another hour. Please wait a moment. That's the match venue."

“Wade, what is ‘Mother John’?” John Wick asked.

"It's the name of the hot sauce."

“The prize for the champion is that mountain of cans of hot sauce,” Wade pointed to John Wick.

"So much? Even if you ate it with chili sauce every day for years, it would take you several years to finish it," John Wick exclaimed in surprise.

"It's a competition organized just to attract attention."

"The eating contest over there is even more impressive," Wade pointed to the other side.

"How come Peter and Li Qun are up there?" Helen asked in surprise.

Among the contestants in the competitive eating contest, Li Qun and Peter were the two with the healthiest and most normal physiques. The people on either side of them were as fat as mountains of flesh, and more than ten people sat in a row waiting to start eating.

"The match begins!!"

Each person was served a plate of hot dogs that looked like a small mountain, and they seemed to taste pretty good.

Peter picked up a hot dog and wolfed it down; Li Qun held his hot dog and ate it rhythmically, chewing each bite twice.

When Peter choked on his food, Li Qun still had the time to push a glass of iced cola over to Peter next to him.

The eating contest lasted ten minutes. Li Qun and Peter opened their stomachs, and the huge stomachs they displayed stunned the audience.

Ten minutes later, the competition ended. Peter had eaten 54 hot dogs, while Li Qun had eaten 56. However, they did not win the championship. The champion was a man named Joey, who ate 71 hot dogs.

“I could have eaten more if it weren’t for that iced Coke,” Peter said weakly to his friends as he stepped off the ring.

"Can you still participate in the spicy food eating contest?" Gwen asked the two of them.

Peter shook his head vigorously.

"I've already signed up," Li Qun said, letting out a burp.

Liqun felt something whipping his calf, and when he looked down, he saw it was a Labrador's tail.

"Hi, John, Helen, it's been a while." Li Qun looked up and greeted the couple.

“Stuart has grown so much!!” Peter looked down and saw a fat dog.

“I’m going to give it a weight loss program; it can’t get any fatter,” John said to Peter.

The puppy Stuart understood what Peter and the others were saying and immediately put on a worried look.

Do you remember us?

Peter wanted to squat down and rub the dog's head, but he almost threw up halfway down, so he immediately stood up again.

“Wade and I signed up for the spicy food eating contest. Wade said he’s the toughest man in all of New York, but I don’t think so,” John said.

"Are you coming, Peter? Let's compete for the title of toughest man," Wade asked Peter with a smile.
