"Feeling good, right?"

Yang Tingting pouted her lips, looking at Lin's smug expression, and asked.

"Great! Great! The two of you are really amazing!" Lin Yihang nodded and smiled in praise.

"Hmph!"

Suddenly, the two girls, in perfect unison, reached out and pinched the soft flesh on Lin Yihang's arm.

"Ah—"

A piercing scream, Lin found himself in a sudden turn of events from joy to sorrow.

Letting go of Lin Yihang's arm, Yang Tingting's face was still flushed. She was secretly puzzled, wondering why she had followed Lu Man to do something so... crazy?

Initiating the act of hugging a boy's arm, for the usually conservative Yang Tingting, could only be described as crazy.

Recalling the feeling just now, it didn't seem so bad after all!

As for Lu Man, she didn't think much about it. Since she had already decided to pursue Lin Yihang and was prepared to give her whole self to him in the future, hugging his arm now was nothing!

...

Riding the new electric scooter, facing the warm night breeze, Lin Yihang's mood was quite good.

Returning to the small apartment, the door opened to the smell of instant noodles. Dong Qing was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, an English textbook on her lap, and a bowl of instant noodles in her hand, eating and studying at the same time.

"Such a diligent beauty!" Lin Yihang greeted.

"Uh-huh, the second mock exam is coming up, and the college entrance exam is near. I need to review as much as possible."

Aware of her previous misunderstandings about Lin Yihang, Dong Qing's attitude was much friendlier this time.

"Right, the second mock exam is coming up." Lin Yihang realized that the first major exam after his穿越 (time travel) was only a few days away.

The foundation left by his previous self facing a major exam so soon was not good news for him.

However, he didn't dwell on it too much, just feeling a bit down. He returned to his room and continued with his usual routine.

Without any textbooks, of course, he couldn't review. He sat cross-legged and visualized the Nine Heavens Diagram.

Although eating high-energy food would be more efficient, absorbing the mixed spiritual energy from this world was slow. However, Lin Yihang knew the principle of accumulating small gains into a large one. Cultivators should never give up on meditation and visualization.

After a couple of hours, he felt refreshed and invigorated.

Checking the time, it was only a little past ten, and Lin Yihang had no sleepiness. He put on his sports clothes and went out for a run.

In just a few days, with various medicinal dishes and a few wild fish, especially the sixteen-pound big fish, his physical condition had greatly improved.

His previously weak body, which would be out of breath after a few quick steps, now moved as agile as a leopard, full of power when he ran.

The body-strengthening techniques from the Immortal World's Dragon Tiger Mountain had transformed his body.

Thump, thump, thump, thump, thump...

The rapid footsteps matched the speed of the electric scooters beside him.

Passersby all turned to look.

Beside him, an uncle on an electric scooter, hearing the footsteps, turned his head and was startled to see someone running. He hurriedly sped up... Bang! In his panic, he accidentally hit the curb and fell off his scooter.

The uncle, wincing in pain, got up and, seeing Lin Yihang running over, threw his bike and ran away.

However, his speed was far inferior to Lin Yihang's. In a few seconds, Lin Yihang had caught up.

"What! What! What do you want?"

The uncle hurriedly moved to the side, raising his hands to protect his face.

Lin Yihang gave him a puzzled look. Was this guy crazy? He was just running, why was this guy overreacting?

Ignoring him, Lin Yihang ran past.

"Phew! You're not a robber! You scared me! Why are you running so fast?"

Lin Yihang had already run past, but he heard the uncle sigh in relief behind him. He couldn't help but laugh and cry. What had he done to deserve this?

"Miss, it's so late, letting you sell meat alone, your husband is really heartless!" Suddenly, a lecherous voice came from ahead.

Chinese culture is profound, and the same word can have many meanings. Selling meat... this could be interpreted in many ways.

This lecherous voice, of course, was not well-intentioned.

"Ha ha!" A dry laugh, but somewhat familiar.

Lin Yihang paused, turned his head, and saw a familiar food stall under a dim streetlight a few dozen meters away. The aroma of grilled chicken wings filled the air. A woman wearing a blue floral triangular hat and a light apron stood behind the stall, fanning with a fan. Her curvaceous figure made it hard to believe that such an elegant woman would be out earning a living at night.

In front of the stall, a man in his thirties was sitting on a bicycle, one foot on the ground, his body as thin as a rack of ribs, leering at the woman.

Beside the stall, a little girl of four or five years old was sitting on the edge of a flower bed, using a stool as a table, covered with a coat, clearly asleep.

"Tong Sister?" Lin Yihang walked over and called out in surprise.

Tong Xiaoyan!

The beautiful stall owner was indeed Tong Xiaoyan. The little girl sleeping on the stool was naturally Tong Lulu.

"It's you?" Tong Xiaoyan's face showed a moment of embarrassment.

Clearly, she felt embarrassed to be seen in such a state by Lin Yihang.

"Quick, quick! Are my grilled chicken wings ready?"

The lecherous man was clearly not a real thug. He had just seen Tong Xiaoyan, a weak woman, alone and had the idea to tease her.

Now that Lin Yihang, a young man, had come over and was clearly an acquaintance, he lost his nerve.

"Ready, ready!"

Tong Xiaoyan hurriedly responded, too busy to chat with Lin Yihang. She quickly sprinkled some cumin and other seasonings on the freshly grilled chicken wings and handed them over.

"Hmph!"

The lecherous man took the chicken wings, paid, and rode away.

Tong Xiaoyan let out a long sigh, then looked at Lin Yihang, having composed herself. She picked up a chicken wing and started grilling it on the iron plate.

"Yihang, are you out for a run? Come, come, try Tong Sister's chicken wings."

"Sure!" Lin Yihang agreed, "Tong Sister, it's so late, why haven't you closed your stall? Lulu is already asleep."

Lin Yihang understood and didn't ask more about why such an elegant woman like Tong Sister would be out selling food at night.

Everyone has their own hardships!

"Just to earn more money. I'm a single woman with Lulu, no education, no skills, how can I live without working hard?" Tong Xiaoyan smiled broadly.

"Lulu's father..." Lin Yihang started to say but immediately closed his mouth, wishing he could slap himself.

She had already said she was a single woman, and he was still asking. Wasn't he just poking at a sore spot?
