Tang Xiu originally wanted to stay in Beijing for a few more days, waiting for the Institute of Virology to confirm that the infectious disease problem had been completely resolved, and then return to Star City. However, because of the misunderstanding among the tribesmen and being too lazy to explain, he finally decided to leave tonight.
After making a few calls, Tang Xiu drove back to Star City overnight. What made him speechless was that as soon as he returned to Nanzha Town, he found that his parents had not rested yet and were chatting in the living room in their pajamas.
"Son, are you in love?"
At two o'clock in the morning, Su Lingyun didn't feel sleepy at all, and came forward with a face full of joy.
Tang Xiu scratched the back of his head and said helplessly: "Didn't this news spread too quickly? Mom, Mu Wanying and I are only boyfriend and girlfriend in name only, we are fake lovers. There are too many boys pursuing her, and they are pursuing your son. There are also a lot of girls. Therefore, as soon as the two of us work together, we will act as a fake couple to block those suitors. "
Fake couple
Su Lingyun and Tang Yunde were confused by the news.
The couple stayed up most of the night just to learn that their son had rushed back from Beijing. They were waiting for the news with full expectation, but they didn't expect that they only got such false news. For a moment, Su Lingyun seemed to be a deflated ball. She sat back listlessly on the sofa, yawned and said, "Son, I heard that the girl named Mu Wanying is good. If you work hard, it is possible to make the lie come true. Well! Okay, I'm a little sleepy, go to sleep."
Tang Yunde gave Tang Xiu a playful look, then shook his head and turned towards the room.
Make a lie come true
Tang Xiu looked at the backs of his parents leaving, his heart filled with depression. Back on the second floor, Tang Xiu took a shower, changed into brand new pajamas, and went to bed comfortably. A few hours later, Tang Xiu woke up from his sleep, washed up energetically, and started practicing.
He has now reached the peak level of Yi Zang. After tempering, his internal organs are a thousand times stronger than ordinary people. There is only one step left before he can reach the point of transporting qi and blood, and only by reaching the state of transporting qi and blood can he easily use more advanced spells.
However, he also knew that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry. He had already had too many opportunities to reach his current state. It would be very difficult to break through in the future, and it would be difficult to achieve it in just a few years. However, he is not in a hurry. The sky-high buildings are rising from the ground. The first level of qi training in the realm of star hegemony to the last level of nine steps of holding the elixir are just the foundation of the "Wanyuan Xuzhou Tongtian Jue". Only by laying a solid foundation can the subsequent cultivation be completed. More secure.
It has only been more than half a year since he returned from the fairy world, but he has already made rapid progress in achieving his current achievements. Therefore, in the future practice, if there is no great opportunity, even if he reaches the point where he can break through, he will need to suppress the progress.
"Huh..."
Exhaling a breath of thick air, Tang Xiu slowly opened his eyes. Although the environment of Nanzha Town is beautiful, it is still considered a city after all. The aura concentration is not comparable to that of Kowloon Island, or even compared to Zhaishanping. Without the rich spiritual energy as a medium, his speed of absorbing the power of the stars would be somewhat slower.
Tang Xiu got out of bed and opened the curtains, and found that there was heavy snow falling outside. Although Star City is not considered to be in the south, it does not belong to the north either. Only during the Chinese New Year every year might there be a light snowfall. Unexpectedly, it was already snowing a few days before the Chinese New Year, and it was a rare heavy snowfall in Star City.
The outside world is covered in snow, and even the plum blossoms that stand proudly blooming are covered by the white snow. Through the misty snowflakes, almost no residents were moving around, only a lot of security guards and property management personnel were clearing snow on the cement road in the villa area.
"Long Xueyao?"
After Tang Xiu's eyes fell on the tall girl, he suddenly remembered that he had promised to treat her to dinner to express his gratitude for helping him get his driver's license. But it's been a long time, and I haven't fulfilled my original promise.
A few minutes later.
Tang Xiu was dressed neatly. In order not to attract attention, he concealed himself by wearing a down jacket that his mother had bought for him at some time, and then walked outside.
In the immortal world, Tang Xiu had even seen the world of ice and snow, so he didn't care about the heavy snow in front of him. After greeting many familiar security guards, Tang Xiu came to Long Xueyao, looked at her shoveling the snow with a shovel, and said with a smile: "Let me help you!"
Long Xueyao raised her head. When she saw Tang Xiu, she immediately smiled and said, "Mr. Tang, you are a very busy man! I haven't seen you for a long time. Did you just come back from the university vacation?"
Tang Xiu took the shovel from her hand, nodded and smiled: "I just returned to Star City last night, but I didn't expect to find it snowing heavily today."
Long Xueyao smiled and said: "Then it's a coincidence that you came back. If the road is blocked by heavy snow, I'm afraid it won't be so easy for you to come back."
Tang Xiu smiled and said: "Indeed. By the way, if you have time at noon, can I treat you to dinner?"
Long Xueyao was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Why did you suddenly think of treating me to dinner?"
Tang Xiu said while shoveling the snow: "Last time about the driver's license, I said I would treat you to dinner, but it was delayed because of the matter. Just as it happened, I received a call from Long Zhengyu on the way back yesterday. He learned that I wanted to When he came back, he said he wanted to call me for dinner, so we could go together."
Long Xueyao shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't worry about the driver's license. The reason why it went so smoothly is not entirely due to me. I won't join in the fun when you men are gathering. There are other things at noon today. I’m afraid I can’t get away from things.”
Tang Xiu nodded and said, "Since you have something to do, I'll invite you another day."
Long Xueyao nodded lightly. Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and said, "Don't you guys always have dinner and dinner in the evening? If I remember correctly, Long Zhengyu and his friends played mahjong all night last night, at noon. I’m afraid it’s hard to get up?”
Tang Xiu asked in surprise: "How did you know that he played mahjong all night?"
Long Xueyao smiled and said, "Have you forgotten what our relationship is? We had dinner together last night, and he said that at that time."
Tang Xiu suddenly realized that Long Zhengyu and Long Xueyao were cousins. There was nothing special about eating together as a family. After thinking for a while, he said: "Then I will go find him at night."
Long Xueyao smiled slightly and said, "In that case, how about you go somewhere with me at noon?"
Tang Xiu asked confused: "Where to go?"
Long Xueyao said mysteriously: "You will know if you follow me. Let's work first! We will set off when we are almost done."
Tang Xiu smiled, not caring about Long Xueyao's betrayal. Anyway, I just came back today and there wasn’t much going on. Go with her and don't let your parents nag you about your boyfriend and girlfriend at home.
An hour later, the snow became less heavy. Tang Xiu returned home, had breakfast, and read for more than two hours in the study, when he received a call from Long Xueyao. Compared with the deserted area in the morning, the villa area is now quite popular. Many young children, accompanied by their parents, are building snowmen and having snowball fights, having a great time.
"It's only ten o'clock, why go so early?"
Tang Xiu came to the property center building and looked at Long Xueyao standing in front of an off-road vehicle and asked.
Long Xueyao nodded slightly and said, "We still need to buy some things. Once everything is finished, it will probably be noon."
"buy what?"
Tang Xiu asked.
Long Xueyao asked with a smile: "Is it because I bought something and you paid for it today?"
Tang Xiu laughed dumbly and said, "If you can use something to pay for a meal, that's no problem."
"It's a deal."
Long Xueyao smiled proudly.
Immediately, the two drove to a nearby shopping mall. What surprised Tang Xiu was that Long Xueyao had obviously contacted the shopping mall staff in advance and purchased twenty or thirty sets of down jackets, as well as a lot of shoes and socks. Through these It can be seen from the things that they are all worn by children under ten years old.
"Long Xueyao, are we going to the welfare home?"
Pushing the cart and with the help of the mall staff, the two finally moved all the things upstairs. As soon as the car started, Tang Xiu asked.
Long Xueyao smiled and said: "I knew I couldn't hide it from you. Yes, we are going to an orphanage, and it is the worst orphanage in our Star City."
Tang Xiu nodded silently and went to the orphanage to do charity. In fact, he was quite supportive. Many children who have lost their loved ones are very pitiful. If the living security of the orphanage is very poor, they will suffer the most during the twelfth lunar month of winter.
Blue Star Welfare Home.
A dilapidated welfare home in the suburbs of Xingcheng has only six staff members including the dean. Among them, the dean fell down a few years ago, causing one of his legs to be broken and became a lame. The other five people are responsible for buying Food, cooking, daily life. There are thirty-two adopted children in the orphanage, four of whom are under one year old.
At the entrance of the orphanage where snowflakes were falling, next to the rusty sign, the dean Wu Xiufen, who was lame on one leg, held a broken umbrella and waited eagerly. She received a call from Long Xueyao yesterday, so she kept coming to the gate since the morning. During this morning, she came out more than a dozen times, and the waiting time exceeded an hour.
"Crunch..."
The off-road vehicle stopped at the entrance of the welfare home. After Long Xueyao and Tang Xiu got out of the car, Long Xueyao took the lead and walked to Wu Xiufen. She looked at Wu Xiufen whose lips were purple from the cold and said with concern: "Dean Wu, you Why did you come out? It’s such a cold day and it’s still snowing!”
Wu Xiufen smiled and said: "It's okay, I'm wearing thick clothes!"
She was wearing quite thick clothes, and she looked a little plump, but some of the cotton on the shoulders of the floral cotton-padded jacket was exposed, and it was obvious that the needlework had exploded, and there were several patches on other places. As for her feet, she was wearing It's a pair of shoes.
Tang Xiu stood aside and sighed secretly in his heart. On the way here, he heard Long Xueyao talk about the situation of the Blue Star Welfare Home. Naturally, he knew that the Welfare Home was entirely funded by a few kind-hearted people, and the help from the government was minimal.
