Chapter 136
Shi Nian and Lu Bo Ting naturally had no need for the nine leaves brought back from the Ice and Fire planet. So, they gave Jian Xi, Old Marshal Lu and Madam Lu one each.
The next step was the Yan family.
Yan Huaxin had to be given one, and then the elder Yan, as he had some health problems as he got older.
As for the others, they didnât need it as much.
However, Lu Bo Ting still left two leaves for them. If they couldnât use them now, they could be kept for later.
The remaining two were left at the Lu familyâs home for emergencies.
Fortunately, these leaves didnât even need to be treated; they could be eaten straight away, and they work as soon as they are eaten. Itâs also easy to store them; keeping them in a box and putting them somewhere was more than enough.
Several people ate together. The leaves tasted sweet, though they looked a little old.
But if the effects were real, they could chew them up even if they were hard. There was no need to mention old.
The others were only using them to treat dark wounds or problems caused by old age, but Yan Huaxin was the only one using them to cure his illness, so everyoneâs eyes were on him.
The entire Yan family had spent countless efforts on his illness, but had not seen any useful results, only giving him temporary relief.
Could a tiny leaf reallyâ¦
The miraculous leaf was eaten, yet Yan Huaxin did not feel anything.
In the end, his illness was not obvious, but the restrictions it caused were large.
However, Old Marshal Lu was different. He had always had some dark wounds in his body after all his years of being a marshal. And now that this leaf has gone down, some of the hidden pains surprisingly didnât hurt anymore.
Master Yan also felt more energetic, âIt works, it really works!â
It was Yan Huaxin who had the least reaction, but the testing equipment was quickly brought out. As soon as the results came out, the whole Yan family was excited.
Surprisingly, it had been completely cured!
It was as if an incurable disease, a disease that could only be relieved, had really been cured.
âHuaxin.â Yan Huaxinâs mother couldnât help but shed tears, âFrom now on, you will be no different from other children.â
Yan Huaxinâs eyes burned.
When he was young, he didnât know any better and often asked why he had to come back when others didnât have to run home every day. Why did he have to come back every day when others could go out and do some sports but not him?
At the time, his family had coaxed him gently, and he had later accepted the reality himself. But it was seared into the hearts of the family that they wanted nothing more than for him to be like the other children one day.
âThank you, Shi Nian. Thank you so much reallyâ¦â
This was followed by coming over to thank Shi Nian.
The whole family buzzed for half a day, and gradually calmed down.
Old man Yan saw that it was getting late, so he let the family eat here. His steps could be seen to be sharper, like flying over the ground.
It was evident that for him, the effect the leaf had had on him was not small.
At the dinner table, Elder Yan proposed that the share given to Shi Nian in their cooperation be increased by another 20%.
Shi Nian was stunned. In fact, the share given to him by the Yan family over their numerous dealings was already more than enough. Now add another 20%â¦
The reason for this could be the leaves, but it was really unnecessary.
He was about to open his mouth to refuse, when he heard Elder Yan say: âItâs settled. You donât need to be embarrassed. The family children always do this when they get married. At the time when Bo Tingâs mother got married, we gave away some shares of the company. Child, your mother is already gone, and the Bai family is so unreliable. But from now on, you can take the Yan family as yours. If Bo Ting dares to bully you in the future, you can come to us and Grandpa will help you teach him a lesson. â
Lu Boting: ââ¦â¦â
How could he bully â¦.
However at this time, no one paid any attention to him. Only Yan Hualin looked at him with a helpless face.
Just when Marshal Lu thought that this cousin really did understand him after all, he heard the other party say, âFrom today onwards, Shi Nian is my own little brother. As for youâ¦Â you can understand. â
âUnderstand? I understand. â Lu Bo Ting thought, âYou guys just want to see the jokes.â
When he went to school, this time Principal Wu didnât urge him to go to class anymore. Maybe itâs because he understands that other students need to be taken care of, but Shi Nianâ¦
This one was beyond the realm of common sense. If he had successfully dragged him to school, maybe the world would have never seen the fire phoenix!
But naturally, Shi Nian was not one who would skip school and be happy. He would still go when he should.
It was probably because of this behavior that made Principal Wu feel more at ease!
His classmates were still shocked beyond belief. Who could have imagined it â¦..
They were all guides, and all students in one class. How can someone be so different?
Even Lu Chengze called to complain and blamed Shi Nian for pretending not to know them inside the game when he clearly knew themâ¦
Shi Nian thought to himself, â I think that you are the only one who was unaware of it. Wang Haosheng probably already noticed it!â
Yan Huaxin and Zhang Jingkai definitely knew, but they didnât mention the game at all. After all, he had refused to play with Yan Huaxin several times, so if he had just found out, he would have brought it up by now.
During this period, the tug-of-war negotiations with the Federation, that is, about Senator Yan, finally made initial progress.
But as long as Senator Yan was there, there was no mention of Yan Nuo.
The senator himself didnât pay much attention to his daughter.
He obviously blamed his own daughter.
âBut itâs just as well. She will be sentenced according to our imperial law, together with Bai Zihan⦠â Xue Chi said and saw that Shi Nianâs expression was not right, he couldnât help but ask: âWhatâs wrong, Mr. Shi?â
âThe same as Bai Zihan? No, theyâre not the same.â Shi Nian said, âBai Zihan doesnât have the mermaid gene. Didnât she say she could ease the spiritual sea by singing? So she should pay for her sins by going around singing for people!â
Just give a concert, a big one, and help as many people as you can!
Xue Chi: âMr. Shi, youâre reallyâ¦â
âReally what?â
âWhat a great idea!â Adjutant Xue said immediately.
It was simply the best use of everything.
Wasnât the Federation unwilling to pay the price to get her back? It is just as well that they can keep Yan Nuo, she wonât be useless after all!
The following days, Shi Nian took his exams before the semester break, had a gathering with his classmates, and then came the day of the engagement.
As Mrs. Lu said, the day was very lively.
After all, the people who came here were not only for the Lu family, but also for him.
Shi Nian had hardened his position on the main star despite being only one person, with little family background and few people at his disposal.
This was only an engagement, and when the wedding day comes, it will only get more lively.
But before that, there was also New Yearâs Eve.
Of course, not just New Yearâs Eve was important, as the next day was Lu Bo Tingâs birthday.
Shi Nian was celebrating his first New Yearâs Eve in the interstellar, having not yet crossed over at this time last year.
He arrived after the New Year, when school had started and it was early spring, when the ice on the main star had melted, but it was still a bit cold.
But in just under a year, so much has happened.
He had managed to come back to life completely, and by accident, he had a little phoenix.
The little phoenix is, of course, also him, except that at the moment of necessity, it can act separately.
He had also found a lover.
After the New Yearâs Eve dinner, they began to observe the New Year, waiting for the clock to strike twelve and saying Happy New Year to each other.
They also wished a happy birthday to Lu Bo Ting as well.
The fireworks were all environmentally friendly and were set off by robots. Shi Nian went over to play with them twice and then came back to sit with everyone else.
The little phoenix was staring at the melons and nuts on the table. The robot had already added them three times, and it had eaten them all.
Shi Nian laughed out loud.
When he became human, he didnât like melon seeds as much anymore, so he was eating jelly and had a strip of dried meat to chew on later.
âDo you want a taste, boss?â
He handed over the milk tea he had taken two sips of, and Lu Bo Ting took it in his hand.
He had always spoiled Shi Nian as long as it was not a death-defying issue. Even if he didnât have a strong sweet tooth, he would still drink what the other party handed over.
And, intentionally or unintentionally, he also used the same spot where Shi Nian had just drunk.
Naturally, Shi Nian didnât miss this little detail and couldnât help but smile.
âBoss, to thinkâ¦â
Lu Bo Ting coughed twice. We are still within the hall. My parents are present. What do you want to say?
Shi Nian looked at the old marshal and Mrs. Lu, who were sitting over there watching some program in a low voice. Mrs. Lu might be watching with serious interest and could not quite hear their side of things, but the old marshal was different.
Alright, no more for now.
âHere.â He brought a cup of coffee over, âBoss, my milk tea might be too sweet for you. I did this to make up for it.â
Lu Bo Ting: ââ¦â¦â
In terms of addressing, they seemed to have gotten used to the name âbossâ.
When the clock struck midnight, Shi Nian was leaning on Lu Boting and was no longer eating.
So the first thing that came out of his mouth was, âHappy birthday, boss.â
Over there, Old Marshal Lu and Madam Lu also sent their best wishes, along with the gifts they had prepared earlier.
Of course, Shi Nian had also prepared a gift.
It was a new storage bag.
The one Lu Bo Ting had been using had been damaged by the burning phoenix feather on it when he broke the formation, so he had been using a spatial steel since then, as Shi Nian made another space bag for him.
It still had a piece of the phoenix feather on it, and his name was embroidered on it.
Shi Nian said: âPfft, does this mean that you often hang me around your waistâ¦. But itâs not suitable for modern clothes. If they were ancient, it would look good on them.â
âThis looks good too.â Lu Bo Ting said.
He swept his eyes down and saw the one Shi Nian had.
It was slightly different from the one he had seen before, with a dragonâs scale printed on it, and his name.
So it was for this that he had asked him for a dragon scale before.
âI like it a lot.â Lu Bo Tingâs gaze deepened, âThere could not be a better gift than this.â
Old Marshal Lu and Madam Lu couldnât help but smile as they watched the scene.
Mrs. Lu: âI didnât think that Shi Nian was good at embroidering things. ââ
He also knows calligraphy. The one hanging in my study was written by him last time. I asked for it because I thought it was really good. â Old Marshal Lu said.
Lu Bo Ting and Shi Nian: ââ¦â¦â
This was entirely learned in the formation before.
Of course, the âgood embroideryâ compliment was an entirely blind compliment from Madam Lu with her eyes closed. Shi Nianâs embroidery could only be described as not ugly, but was far worse than the little girl who was embroidering next to him at that time.
As for the calligraphy, he was not like a calligrapher that had practiced for many years.
The only thing was that there were not many people in the interstellar world who knew how to write with a brush, but in ancient times, his work was obviously a long way off.
They stayed downstairs for a while longer, and since it was already too late, they were ready to go upstairs and rest.
Lu Bo Ting was about to go to bed after a shower when he heard a knock at the door.
He froze for a moment and went to open the door.
There was no one outside the door, only a large box wrapped in ribbon.
It looked like a gift.
Lu Bo Ting reached out and carried it in, thinking that it was quite heavy. It must weigh as much as one Shi Nian.
It looked like it was a gift from Shi Nian, and he didnât know what was inside. A thought flashed through his mind.
He reached out and unwrapped the ribbon, opened the box, and sure enough, there was a well-behaved and lovely sweetheart inside it.
âHappy birthday, boss.â Shi Nian said.
âIâll spend every birthday with you from now on, okay.â
