Despite his many questions, Ye Chuan put them aside for now, seeing that he had died in the adventure.
There were too many mysteries; he didn't understand the aning of that stone tablet.
Could there have been a previous civilization in the Tianxuan Continent?
"Better focus on cultivation."
Although his strength had increased, the Foundation Establishnt realm didn't seem to be very impressive in the Tianxuan Continent. And he discovered that his resurrection ti was now three days.
"That's a loss. If resurrection takes three days, then I'll lose three days of adventure inco," Ye Chuan stroked his chin.
High risk, high reward.
He had indeed taken a risk. It seed the sweep function, which increased his survival rate, was more suitable for him.
Of course, dying in the adventure didn't have any real impact on him.
It was just a loss of potential inco. But it wasn't a big deal.
Ye Chuan's lifespan had increased after reaching Foundation Establishnt, and he had plenty of ti to increase his strength.
And his money tree also produced items.
"Well, I'll just sleep for now." A lot had happened today, from watching the ga with Luo Xi to breaking through to Foundation Establishnt, saving Qiao Xin, and having barbecue.
He was ntally exhausted. Ye Chuan went to bed.
The night passed uneventfully.
…
As dawn broke, Ye Chuan woke up.
He was yawning and getting ready to wash up when he noticed a ssage on his phone.
Luo Xi: Lazy pig~ Are you awake? It's my birthday today, co over for dinner tonight?
Ye Chuan replied to Luo Xi's ssage.
Ye Chuan: Let see your legs.
Luo Xi: ?
Luo Xi: Video call incoming—
The phone screen switched to the video call interface. Ye Chuan casually answered and saw Luo Xi's face.
She clearly hadn't gotten ready yet, still snuggled under her covers.
Her hair was ssy, her eyes slightly hazy, and her cheeks flushed.
"Who asks to see legs first thing in the morning? Pervert," she said, her nose twitching, as if acting cute.
"Is that what you think I want to see?" Ye Chuan asked.
"Isn't that what you said?"
"No," Ye Chuan shook his head, his eyes downcast, his voice filled with mock lodrama. "I want to see your legs, to see the path you've walked, the scenery you've seen, the laughter and tears you've experienced, all the flavors of life."
"By looking at your legs, I'm savoring your life, your heart."
Luo Xi: "..."
Although she was used to Ye Chuan's thick skin, this was the first ti she had seen soone speak so shalessly yet so eloquently.
"Fine, here, Daddy will let you see." Luo Xi lifted the covers to show Ye Chuan her legs. Since she was wearing a nightgown, he could basically see everything.
Not bad.
Ye Chuan's fingers twitched.
Luo Xi seed to sense sothing. "Did you just take a screenshot?"
"I'm not taking a screenshot, I'm capturing a beautiful mory, one I want to keep forever in my heart," Ye Chuan said.
"Wow, that's so cheesy! I'm coming over there right now to deal with you!"
The video call ended abruptly. Ye Chuan could already imagine Luo Xi jumping out of bed to get ready.
He casually tossed his phone aside and continued washing up.
After changing his clothes, Ye Chuan opened the door and went to the living room.
The apartnt was quiet, with no sign of Bai Qianshuang or Lan Xiaoke.
He checked their logs and found that both of them were sleeping.
In the chibi avatar interface, both of them were lying in bed, their chubby cheeks rising and falling with each breath.
"Oh?" This was quite rare, especially for Lan Xiaoke, a ghost who didn't need to sleep. It seed that even immortals and ghosts needed to rest occasionally.
Ignoring them, Ye Chuan left the apartnt.
"You pervert, Chuan Chuan! Delete that screenshot!" As soon as Ye Chuan stepped out, his ear was pinched. He noticed Luo Xi waiting for him at the door.
She was wearing her school uniform, black pantyhose under her pleated skirt, one hand on her hip, her chin raised slightly.
Although she looked angry, it seed more like she was acting cute.
Especially since Ye Chuan knew Luo Xi well, this wasn't real anger.
"I didn't take a screenshot," Ye Chuan said, holding up his hands.
"Really?"
"Why would I need a screenshot? Isn't it better to see the real thing?" Ye Chuan said, then spanked Luo Xi's butt.
"How dare you!" Luo Xi hopped forward, covering her backside, and imdiately retaliated.
Spanking each other was a sign of affection.
Only people with a good relationship could spank each other.
"Oh right, this is for you," Ye Chuan said, taking out a phone and handing it to Luo Xi.
"What?" Luo Xi took it instinctively and found that it was a phone box.
"A phone, your birthday present."
"But you already gave a bracelet," Luo Xi said, shaking her wrist. The silver bracelet glead faintly in the sunlight.
"Who says you can only have one birthday present?" Ye Chuan chuckled.
"I guess…" Luo Xi took the phone.
She knew Ye Chuan; if she refused, he would be unhappy.
Since it was a gift, she should accept it happily. The value didn't matter.
"Is this phone expensive?"
"Not really, just right for a beautiful girl like you."
"Such sweet talk. I won't be able to afford such an expensive gift for your birthday."
"Then I'll have to spank you," Ye Chuan said, pinching Luo Xi's soft cheek.
"Hee hee, you won't be able to catch ."
It was still early, so they found a stone bench and sat down. Luo Xi opened the box, looked at the iPhone, then rummaged through the contents.
"Chuan Chuan, where's the charger?"
"Isn't it inside?" Ye Chuan also looked and found that there was indeed no charger in the box.
"The box is so thin, there's no charger," Luo Xi checked on her phone and then said in realization,
"It says they don't include chargers after the iPhone 10, for environntal reasons."
"Environntal reasons my ass, it's just to earn more money," Ye Chuan rolled his eyes.
If it was for environntal reasons, shouldn't there be an option to choose whether or not you wanted a charger?
"Well… I'll get one when I get ho," Luo Xi put the phone back in the box, not activating it yet. She would buy a charger later; it wasn't a big deal.
Then she seed to rember sothing.
"Chuan Chuan, my mom's health has improved a lot these past few days, but she still coughs and gets short of breath sotis. Is that okay?"
"That dicine only helps your mom regain her strength. For a complete cure, I need to… check our ancestral recipes," Ye Chuan coughed lightly.
"Okay, thank you," Luo Xi blushed and kissed Ye Chuan on the cheek.
"So proactive?"
"Is that okay?"
"It's fine, I like proactive girls."
