My Apocalypse System Arrives 10 Years Early

Chapter 402: Chapter 265: New Year is Coming Again

Luo Feifei murmured, ”Hmph. You said you weren’t going to give me anything, but now you are. Tell me, is it because you adore me?”

Li Xiang said, ”...I just have a lot of stuff, so I give it away to people I meet. It’s not like you’re the only one.”

”Pfft! You scumbag!” Luo Feifei couldn’t help but laugh. ’She didn’t believe for a second that Li Xiang just gave things away to everyone he met. How could he possibly do that with such precious treasures? At most, he’d give some to that Jiang Cai’Er.’

But then she had another thought. ’I have so many treasures, all gifts from Li Xiang. Jiang Cai’Er probably doesn’t have more than I do. Even though Jiang Cai’Er and Li Xiang were childhood sweethearts, I’m the universe’s most beautiful girl, a national goddess. There’s no way I’ll lose.’

The two of them scoured India for more ”offerings.” After Li Xiang swallowed a Creation Lotus, his Hindi became incredibly fluent, his accent flawless. When he collected the offerings, he delivered speeches and issued divine prophecies in perfect Hindi, making the monks and believers even more reverent.

Indian netizens grew even more excited. ”Did you hear that? Our Divine Envoy’s Hindi is perfect! He has to be our own native Divine Envoy. All those netizens from other countries who didn’t believe it—they have to believe it now, right? How else could he speak so perfectly?”

Li Xiang and Luo Feifei finally left India, because Luo Feifei’s vacation was over. After she had been gone for so many days, her mother was probably worried sick.

Li Xiang took Luo Feifei on a detour through Kunlun Mountain, wanting to investigate the area. Unfortunately, the mountain range was immense. Plus, according to legend, the One Qi Transforms Five Dragons, so that ancient qi vein might not even exist anymore.

Besides, Kunlun Mountain was uninhabited. Migrating a large population there would be incredibly difficult, and an Underground City would never be built in such a remote location.

So, Li Xiang gave up on the idea.

”Feifei, I’ll take you home. You know, we’ve known each other for so long, but I just realized I still don’t know where you live,” Li Xiang asked, the detail suddenly dawning on him.

He had assumed it was such a simple question that Luo Feifei would answer without a second thought. But to his surprise, she shot him a glare. ”What for? Planning on visiting my home? A new son-in-law has to bring lots of gifts on his first visit, you know. Are you ready for that?”

Li Xiang stammered, ”...I was just asking.”

”Oh, so you’re not serious about it. In that case, forget I said anything. I’ll tell you when you’re actually serious! Hmph! You wish you could come to my house. Dream on!”

Li Xiang was completely baffled. ’What is happening? I just asked where she lives. Why is she firing back like a machine gun? I asked one question, and she gave me a whole speech.’

Luo Feifei covered her mouth to stifle a giggle. ’If I told him,’ she thought, ’wouldn’t I expose my identity as his Little Aunt?’

’She still wanted to have fun teasing Li Xiang as his Little Aunt in the future. Speaking of which, Little Aunt hasn’t been online in a while. Mmm, I’ll log on as soon as I get back and go tease Brother Xiang.’

’To keep him from asking again... alright, I’ll just buy a villa in another city. We can use it as our private spot for dates.’ She decided she would start looking at houses as soon as she got back.

It had to be said, being rich was nice. Soon after she returned, Luo Feifei picked out a Chinese-style villa in Suzhou worth over fifty million yuan. It wasn’t considered top-of-the-line, but with three stories above ground and two below—stretching from sky to earth, as they say—and already exquisitely decorated, she moved right in after some simple furnishing.

...

After so many days on the road, New Year’s Day was fast approaching. The period of rain and snow across the country had finally come to an end. In the days since Li Xiang’s return, the sun shone brightly nearly every day. The temperature began to rise, and the piled-up snow melted at a visible rate. In just a few more days, only a few patches would be left in the shade.

Many of the village elders began to come outside to bask in the sun and get some exercise. The area in front of Li Xiang’s house became the villagers’ favorite spot to gather and chat.
