Chapter 148 A Promising Future
Li Qin suspected that Yi Zhonghai's many words might not only be a scheme to seize the meat in his hands, but also a scheme to harm him in the future.
They wanted him to spend money and things to support the deaf old lady next door.
Although there was no evidence to support this suspicion, Li Qin knew Yi Zhonghai's true colors and felt that this possibility was very high.
Li Qin already knew about Yi Zhonghai's background, including the deaf old lady, so how could he possibly be outmaneuvered by Yi Zhonghai?
Li Qin did not directly refute or reject Yi Zhonghai's words.
Instead, he nodded in agreement and said:
"I've remembered everything the old man said. If I ever cook something delicious in the future, I'll definitely remember to send a bowl to the deaf old lady."
Upon hearing Li Qin's promise, a look of satisfaction immediately appeared on Yi Zhonghai's face.
Just as he was about to say something more, Li Qin spoke first;
"Uncle, if there's nothing else, I'll go eat now. If I linger any longer, the meat will get cold."
Eating cold meat can easily upset your stomach.
After saying this, Li Qin immediately turned and walked towards his house.
Upon hearing his words and seeing Li Qin's decisive action, Yi Zhonghai's expression froze.
A deep sense of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes.
Seeing that Li Qin had already reached his doorstep, Yi Zhonghai disregarded everything else and immediately spoke;
"Xiao Li, wait a minute."
Li Qin was very obedient. After hearing Yi Zhonghai's words, he actually stopped and turned around.
His face was full of confusion at this moment;
"Sir, is there anything else you need?"
Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai's smile finally vanished, and his eyes revealed dissatisfaction and deep-seated anger. However, Yi Zhonghai was no ordinary person, and he did not show his dissatisfaction and anger.
Instead, he took a deep breath and then said softly;
"Xiao Li, didn't you just promise to bring a bowl of whatever delicious food you made to the old lady? How come you've forgotten?"
At this moment, a blank look suddenly appeared on Li Qin's face.
After a while, he first looked at the rabbit meat he was holding, and then looked at Yi Zhonghai.
His face immediately showed a look of sudden realization.
Seeing Li Qin's reaction, Yi Zhonghai knew that the other party had understood his meaning.
A faint smile then returned to his face.
Unfortunately, he laughed too soon. Li Qin's next words made his smile freeze again.
Li Qin said with a serious expression:
"I did promise you, Uncle, that I would send a bowl of my cooking to the old lady in the future, but that was in the future."
The rabbit meat I stewed this time doesn't count, of course.
After saying this, Li Qin ignored Yi Zhonghai's stiff expression and turned to enter his home.
And he even closed the door behind him.
Hearing the door close, Yi Zhonghai realized that Li Qin had been playing a trick on him.
Yi Zhonghai's face immediately turned ashen.
His eyes were filled with anger.
He intended to break into Li Qin's house, but after taking two steps forward, he finally stopped.
Yi Zhonghai stood there for a while, then finally turned and left the backyard.
However, before leaving, he glanced in the direction of Li Qin's house with a sinister and resentful look.
"Finally, I can have a proper meal."
After closing the door, Li Qin took the food directly to the dining room.
He was in a very good mood at that moment.
Not only because of the delicious food in front of them, but also because of what had just happened.
Although only Yi Zhonghai appeared just now, Li Qin knew that whether it was the Xu family next door or the deaf old woman,
Or it could be Liu Haizhong's house across the street.
Everyone was paying close attention to his conversation with Yi Zhonghai.
This can be proven by the constant notification sounds from the system.
If it were just Yi Zhonghai alone, the system wouldn't be able to collect emotional power so frequently;
[Emotional Power +2000]
[Emotional Power +1000]
[Emotional Power +800]
[Emotional Power +500]
[Emotional Power +300]
[Emotional Power +1000]
[Emotional Power +700]
[Emotional Power +600]
[Emotional Power +200]
Knowing that many people were watching, Li Qin did not directly reject Yi Zhonghai, but instead repeatedly teased him.
And the effect of doing so is extremely obvious.
Under his manipulation, the deaf old woman, Yi Zhonghai, and others were exposed to huge scandals.
The power of emotions surged forth wave after wave.
In just a short while, he had already gained a considerable amount of emotional power.
Most importantly, although Yi Zhonghai has left, his actions still affect the emotional systems of some people in the courtyard, and they continue to receive emotional power.
Adding to the emotions he had stirred up earlier by deliberately using a spell to spread the smell of stewed meat throughout the courtyard.
He gained at least tens of thousands of units of emotional energy from that meal.
With a joyful heart, Li Qin began to show off his food.
I don't know if it's because he's in a good mood or because his body is going through another growth spurt recently, but his appetite has increased significantly.
A large pot of rabbit meat, along with potatoes, mushrooms, and other ingredients, and a large bowl of white rice, weighing about five or six pounds.
Li Qin actually ate it all in one sitting.
In the end, only a few scraps of food and a little soup were left.
Li Qin had given up on thinking about his obviously abnormally large appetite.
Anyway, he can support himself, and he doesn't care about food.
After finishing his meal, he brewed himself a pot of tea and then began to relax leisurely in the living room.
"I never expected to gain so much emotional power in just one day. If I follow this standard every day, becoming a god or ancestor will be just around the corner."
Li Qin took a sip of tea to calm his excited emotions.
He did fantasize about it at first.
But Li Qin quickly came to his senses and realized that there was a reason why he had gained so much today.
It won't be so easy to do things like this again in the future.
However, Li Qin was not in a hurry.
Given the personalities of the people in the courtyard, Li Qin was quite confident that he could extract emotional power from them.
Putting everything else aside, if he only cooks meat once every three to five days, he should be able to gain a considerable amount of emotional energy.
If you actively initiate something, you can unleash even more emotional power.
In short, it can be summarized in one sentence;
The future is expected.
After resting for a while, Li Qin took the bowls and chopsticks he had just used and went to the pool in the middle courtyard to wash them clean.
He did this for two reasons: firstly, to aid digestion through appropriate activity, and secondly, to reap the benefits of emotional energy once again.
Sure enough, by this time, all the residents in the courtyard had finished eating.
They were all washing dishes in groups of three or five by the pool.
Seeing the marks left by Li Qin in the bowls and basins, the people around immediately knew that it was Li Qin who had just cooked the meat.
These people's feelings instantly became complicated.
Qin Huairu, who was playing with Bang Geng in the courtyard, especially looked at Li Qin's back with a strange light in her eyes.
I don't know what I'm thinking.
Li Qin didn't care. All he knew was that Qin Huairu, the "female lead," had provided him with a lot of emotional support.
Besides Qin Huairu, the male protagonist Sha Zhu is the same.
However, He Yuzhu was surprised that Li Qin had such good cooking skills.
Shocked, a large amount of emotional power was also unleashed.
