Rebirth: Slice-of-life Cultivation-Chapter 1599 - 874: Mouthwatering (Part 2)

As soon as the elevator doors opened, a burst of laughter reached my ears. Unlike the usual quiet, the villa was particularly lively tonight, scattered with ten young men and women playing and laughing.

Zhuang Jianhui, Lin Xiaopang, Yuan Lin, who was dressed in designer clothes and wearing a luxury watch, Wei Zishan, with a little white snake twirling in her hands, and several other young men and women exuding either a sense of maturity or elegance.

Lin Zida heard the commotion, turned his head, and immediately shouted, "Shuyan, are you done? Come play Werewolf!"

Ding Shuyan placed the fruit basket on the table, maintaining her calm demeanor, "Sure, let’s play a couple of rounds."

Wei Zishan, who was fiddling with the little white snake with her manicured nails, saw the fruit basket on the table and was surprised, "These cherries are nice!"

She casually picked up a cherry, tossed it into her mouth, and her expression changed suddenly, "Whoa, where did you buy these?"

...

River dam, bungalow.

Xue Yuantong went God mode in a bot game, slaughtering the bots who scattered in disarray. Even Chen Siyu, as weak as she was, rose with her, picking up several kills.

After the game, Chen Siyu lavishly praised Xue Yuantong, describing her with all kinds of flattering words, saying she was the best gamer with the kindest heart in the world. Even the fiercest wild dog on the street, seeing such a kind-hearted person, would feel so ashamed that it would turn over a new leaf and be a good dog for the rest of its life.

She even claimed that if Tongtong played a game with other girls, those brainless girls would definitely swear from that day on to keep their hair long for him, and if they didn’t marry him, they wouldn’t cut their hair, would stay by the light of ancient Buddha lamps, and would remain single all their lives...

"So, Tongtong, to keep you from messing with others, you have to play games with me, you know?" Chen Siyu warned her. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Xue Yuantong stifled a rising smile, typing back with pride, "It’s just so-so!"

Chen Siyu: "It’s okay-okay, but world number one."

Xue Yuantong wondered, ’How come Si Yu sounds so nice when she talks!’

Her affection +100.

After a while of praising, Chen Siyu started to self-deprecate, "Tongtong, you’re so amazing, unlike me, I’m such a klutz in games."

Xue Yuantong, now riding high on praise, offered, "How about this, Si Yu, I’ll teach you to play the game!"

As soon as she said that, Chuchu, who was reading on the sofa behind, lifted her face, scanned Tongtong with her water-clear eyes, then continued reading.

Chen Siyu was excited, "Really? You can really teach me?"

Tongtong promised, "I’ll definitely make you a pro, we’ll dominate the King’s Game!"

Chen Siyu knew her limits, "No need to dominate the King’s Game, I just want to be a silver-level expert!"

Once it was settled, Tongtong fiddled for a while. She initially wanted to stream her gameplay to Chen Siyu but gave up upon realizing you had to be 18 to do so.

So Tongtong chose the simplest way: she video called Si Yu, handed her phone to Chuchu to align it with the screen, allowing Si Yu and her friends to watch on the computer.

"Given the conditions, watch as best as you can!" Xue Yuantong said, then started a round in the King’s Game.

Chen Siyu focused intently, observing the high-level match, hoping to learn new techniques to dominate Summoner’s Rift.

Xue Yuantong quickly chose Little Fishman, grabbed the trident, and started her jungle adventure.

After watching for a while, Chen Siyu’s eyes started to hurt from the flashing, and she hurriedly shouted, "Tongtong, is it lagging? How come your screen is all over the place?"

Xue Yuantong, manipulating the keyboard and mouse, responded, "It’s not moving randomly. I’m watching my teammates’ movements. Look at that idiot in mid-lane on the other side, missing all their minions. I’m going to kill them right now."

With that, she charged with her trident to attack.

And sure enough, with coordination, she killed the enemy.

Xue Yuantong shared her secret technique, "Si Yu, did you get it?"

In Chen Siyu’s perspective, all she saw was a flickering screen, blinding her and leaving her with a dizzy head.

Chen Siyu held her forehead, feeling weak, "I can’t, I need a break."

Chen Siqing weakly asked, "Tongtong, why do you switch screens to watch your teammates? I never do that."

Xue Yuantong was puzzled, "Of course, you need to observe your teammates and opponents in a game. Don’t you play that way?"

Observer Xue Chuchu pursed her lips, "Among the people I’ve seen, you’re the only one who plays like that."

Ignorant Chuchu, how dare you contradict me, you are bold!

Xue Yuantong mocked her ignorance: "You’ve only seen me and Jiang Ning play games."

Xue Chuchu: "..."

Xue Yuantong casually stated: "What’s the big deal? I play other games that are way cooler than this. I can play CF and LOL at the same time, electrifying people in Nightfall Manor while stabbing them in the Rift, double the joy, ha ha!"

Chen Siyu struggled with her studies, feeling defeated and downhearted: "Is there anything I’m good at in this world?"

Hearing the twins’ discouraging words, to comfort them, Tongtong rampaged in the Rift, ending the game, and suddenly, there was a noise outside.

Xue Yuantong almost jumped from her throne, her little face filled with joy: "He’s back, Jiang Ning is back!"

Still in a video call, Chen Siyu curiously asked: "Did Jiang Ning return after the New Year?"

As they spoke, Xue Chuchu opened the room door, and Jiang Ning’s figure appeared.

He glanced around the room, noticed Tongtong was on a video call with the twins, and said cheerfully: "It’s quite lively here."

The twins greeted him warmly: "Jiang Ning, long time no see!"

Jiang Ning chuckled: "It’s been a while indeed."

He raised the barbecue in his left hand and the fruit basket in his right: "Here, enjoy some food."

Chen Siyu was elated, her hands released her sister, and she danced excitedly: "That’s so generous, I’m going to eat, eat!"

Then she realized, they were still separated by the screen.

Chen Siyu’s smile froze.

Xue Yuantong: "Haha."

Jiang Ning placed the fruit basket on the small wooden table, and Tongtong held up her phone to give a close-up.

Jiang Ning then opened the insulated bag, revealing glossy and well-presented skewers, and Tongtong continued with the close-up.

Chen Siyu was truly hurt through the screen.

At this moment, her desire unfulfilled, like a bachelor spying on the neighbor’s wife taking a bath in the lonely deep night, scratching his head in anxiousness.

Chen Siyu even shed tears.

Xue Yuantong commanded Chuchu to wash the big cherries, while she fetched a half-drunk bottle of cola from the kitchen, pouring each person a glass.

Xue Yuantong grabbed a skewer of lamb, took a bite; it was still scorching hot, with the aroma of chili, cumin, and fresh lamb spreading in her mouth, absolutely delicious.

The cold lonely night was filled up by the lamb skewers, impossible to resist.

Tongtong raised a wine glass and gently clinked it against the phone camera, her face mischievously grinning: "Siyu, this one’s to freedom!"

On the other side of the screen, Siyu was nearly drooling!

Tongtong then picked up a big cherry, showed it to Siyu before eating it in one bite.

"Cherries are so delicious! Is there any fruit as tasty and convenient as cherries in the world?" she exclaimed, sighing with emotion.

Xue Chuchu biting into a big cherry, savoring the sweet and sour tender flesh, said: "There should be, sugar oranges are nice too, easy to peel and sweet."

Jiang Ning: "Even though they’re easy to peel, after peeling sugar oranges, inevitably your hands get stained, you have to wash them afterward, and eating too many turns you into a Minion."

Xue Chuchu found some truth in that, after thinking, "How about bananas? They’re easy to peel, no need to wash hands afterward, and no seeds to spit out."

Jiang Ning pondered for a moment, it seems true.

As the two discussed, the distant twins were almost crying from hunger, unable to have the delicious food late at night.

Hearing them talk about bananas, Chen Siyu’s voice erupted from the phone’s speaker, protesting: "You’re not mentioning any flaws! After eating bananas, you have to rinse your mouth!"

Xue Chuchu was puzzled, no matter how she thought couldn’t understand: ’Why do you have to rinse your mouth after eating bananas? You mean pineapple, right? After eating that, I’ve heard you need to rinse, but not bananas.’

Jiang Ning paused for two seconds: "Siyu, are you okay?"
