EAY Chapter 41

Full HP Revival

41

Actually, besides the preciousness of the gift itself, Qi Ye was even more surprised that Shi Ran would give him drawing tools.

All along, Qi Ye simply liked drawing, and never thought about seriously achieving anything with it. But Shi Ran has always supported him like this, not only with daily encouragement, but also with the night market stall last time, and this gift.

Moreover, to be more realistic, how could Shi Ran afford such a gift?

【Besides the gift for my grandpa, there was one more thing that I had in my shopping cart for a long time.】

That’s what he said back then, right? Could this thing be referring to the drawing tablet?

Qi Ye suddenly stood up from his seat. Shi Ran had already gone to the upper bunk. He ran to his bedside and seriously asked through the railing, “You, the thing you wanted to buy, is this?”

Meng Nan hadn’t returned from his part-time job yet, and Li Tianyi was messing around in other dorms.

Shi Ran didn’t know why, he glanced around guiltily, but still said in a low voice, “Oh.”

Qi Ye’s chest was heaving, and suppressed emotions filled his heart. He really didn’t know what to say. Working so hard at the barbecue restaurant, with a long commute and long working hours, and all those burn marks on his hands, was it all just to buy him something?

At this moment, Shi Ran was lying on his side, propped up on his pillow, his beautiful eyes full of innocence. Qi Ye unconsciously reached out, reaching through the opening in the railing to touch his hair, his voice hoarse, “Don’t do such silly things in the future.”

Shi Ran smiled, not saying whether he agreed or not, probably not thinking it was a silly thing at all in his heart.

The dormitory suddenly fell silent, and even the sound of the wind outside the window could be heard clearly. They looked at each other silently. Qi Ye really wanted to do something out of line, but his remaining rationality suppressed him, preventing him from acting.

“Qi Ye,” Shi Ran called him softly, as if afraid of affecting something, “You’re overreacting too.”

“Is that so?” Qi Ye’s rationality returned, he retracted his hand and said with a smile, “I’m just too touched, thank you for your gift, I like it very much.”

“Me too,” Shi Ran said, “I forgot that I hadn’t thanked you yet.”

The dormitory door suddenly opened, and Li Tianyi walked in and saw the two of them, raising an eyebrow: “Qi Ye, you’re not trying to coax Shi Ran to sleep, are you? Has this best friend service been upgraded again?”

“Get lost.” Qi Ye was too lazy to pay attention to him, and returned to his seat to continue admiring his gift.

Li Tianyi said while taking off his shoes, “I saw her and her boyfriend today.”

“Her” refers to the girl that Li Tianyi was in contact with before. The reason why Li Tianyi was so quiet that day when Qi Ye treated everyone was because he was rejected when he confessed to her. Then, the next day, he heard that the girl had a boyfriend.

“Are you okay?” Shi Ran poked his head out from the upper bunk and asked with concern.

Li Tianyi smiled: “I was very frustrated at first, but when I saw what her boyfriend looked like today, I suddenly felt like my HP was full again. The problem isn’t with me, it’s just that her taste isn’t good enough.”

Shi Ran said, “Maybe her boyfriend is very gentle and considerate.”

Li Tianyi silently shot him a glare, and Shi Ran immediately shut up. At this time, he should unconditionally stand on his brother’s side, so he quickly added: “That’s right, that girl has bad taste. Losing you is that girl’s loss, a huge loss!”

Li Tianyi nodded in satisfaction, crossed his arms and said, “Do you guys have time this weekend? You have to participate in the dormitory activity.”

“What activity?” Meng Nan just came back, “Li, are you back with full HP?”

Shi Ran glanced at Meng Nan on the upper bunk. He really admired this “iron man.” No matter how late he came back, there was no sign of fatigue on his face, as if he had just gone out for a stroll.

But playing is also quite tiring, Shi Ran sighed in his heart, sure enough, people’s energy is different.

“Mountain climbing!” Li Tianyi made a very dramatic gesture.

Shi Ran frowned as soon as he heard it: “So tiring, why don’t you just join the school’s mountain climbing club?”

“Hehe, don’t mention it, I sneaked into their club to play last time, and figured out their routes and where it’s more suitable to camp.” Li Tianyi said, “They have regular mountain climbing activities and you have to participate. I don’t like mountains that much.”

Meng Nan said, “Are we going camping too?”

“Yeah, and you don’t have to buy tents, my family has them.” Li Tianyi said, “The last time some kids from my relatives’ house clamored to go camping, their parents were worried about safety, so they set up tents on the grass in my yard. As soon as they left, everything was left behind. I’ve already asked my mom to send them to me, they’ll be here tomorrow.”

“That’s good.” Meng Nan nodded, “Then we can just buy some snacks or something.”

Li Tianyi said, “Don’t you guys want to eat barbecue? Let’s buy something and go up there to barbecue.”

Qi Ye said, “The fire control is very strict now, right? Are barbecues allowed there?”

Li Tianyi: “I didn’t see them barbecuing last time, but my family always made their own food when we went camping before, I feel like that’s more meaningful.”

“Young master, I guess you have a nanny taking care of you, right?” Meng Nan said.

“Well, I also helped wash vegetables.” Li Tianyi said with insufficient confidence.

“This time, let’s just buy ready-made stuff and go up there, after all, we haven’t figured out the situation yet.” Shi Ran said, “If we can confirm that barbecues are allowed there, we can rent a set of equipment to use next time.”

“I agree.” Meng Nan nodded, “I really don’t have the energy to do anything this week, tell us in advance next time so we can prepare.”

“I can’t tell at all whether you’re tired or not.” Li Tianyi shook his head, and quickly smiled again, “So, you all agree to go?”

“What can we do if we don’t agree? You’re even going to have the tents sent over.” Qi Ye said with a smile.

Meng Nan said, “Hey, if it rains that day, let’s set up tents in the dormitory and experience indoor camping.”

“Don’t jinx it, it won’t rain, I’ve checked the weather forecast.” Li Tianyi said smugly.

However, what was that saying? The weather is unpredictable. The weather, which had been sunny for most of the month, suddenly started drizzling just as the four of them were ready to set off for the mountain. The light rain gradually turned into heavy rain, and pearl-sized raindrops hit the railing, splashing onto their clothes, forcing them back into the dormitory.

Li Tianyi was still standing there in a complete EMO state, and Qi Ye and Shi Ran quickly dragged him into the dormitory.

“The heavens are too cruel to us.” Li Tianyi said with a bitter face, and quickly went to shake Meng Nan’s shoulder angrily, “It’s your fault, it’s all your fault! Who told you to talk nonsense!”

“Okay, okay, it’s my fault!” Meng Nan nodded and admitted his mistake with a smile, patting his shoulder comfortingly, “But, indoor camping is also very novel, isn’t it?”
