Cheng Yi smiled heartily on receiving the message, and then couldn’t help but sigh lightly.
Although he knew that the little one had been running out for him all this time, he still ate his own vinegar at the thought that the little one could not be with him because of this.
Especially since he still didn’t know what kind of mecha the little one had customized for him.
It’s not that he didn’t ask Ren Qing about it, but she changed from her warm and talkative attitude when he did and refused him in a very righteous manner.
Cheng Yi understood and agreed with this. After all, Ren Qing is Ren Bo’s granddaughter. It would be stupid and terrible if she casually talked her grandfather’s orders just because she admired him.
However, although it was understandable, Cheng Yi was still a bit depressed. But on second thought, this was a good thing. It wouldn’t be a surprise if he knew about it in advance.
After a little self-reflection, Cheng Yi opened his light brain. He opened the little one’s photo album and looked at it with great pleasure.
Most of these were photos he had taken, but there were also some that Cheng Yang had taken and sent to him, such as the little one’s seriousness in class, the cute way he slept before they became lovers, and so on.
Although he knew that this was a bit inappropriate, he could not help but feel a bit happy when he thought that he had so many pictures of the little one, but the little one did not know about it at all.
This delight continued until An Yan came back. Cheng Yi stood up and said, “Yan Yan is back?”
An Yan nodded guiltily, “I had something to do. Did you have lunch? ”
An Yan still felt guilty for running out all the time, even though he knew it was for matters related to Cheng Yi.
He didn’t expect Cheng Yi to be at her home. After all, he had already said he had something to take care of.
Cheng Yi came over and put his arm around An Yan’s shoulder and said in an aggrieved tone, “Not yet. I was waiting for you to join me, so I didn’t have lunch, although I was hungry.”
An Yan felt increasingly guilty and said, “Then I’ll go with you to eat.”
He had already eaten lunch at Ren Bo’s house before he came back, so he was not hungry. But Cheng Yi remained hungry because he was waiting for him, so An Yan would not let him go to eat alone.
Cheng Yi took the opportunity to pout, “I want to eat Yan Yan’s cooking.”
An Yan immediately nodded, “Okay, what do you want to eat? I’ll go and make it for you. ”
Cheng Yi moved up to An Yan’s ear and said, in a low voice, “I want to eat you.”
An Yan was perplexed for a moment, then his face flushed and he glared at Cheng Yi angrily, “You…… what are you talking about?”
An Yan looked so adorable that Cheng Yi felt a sudden heat in his body. He originally just wanted to tease the little one, but he ended up digging a pit for himself.
Cheng Yi coughed lightly and turned slightly to the side, “I want to eat scrambled eggs with tomatoes. That is enough. ”
An Yan was still blushing as he said, “Okay, I’ll go make it for you.”
Cheng Yi clenched his fist as he watched An Yan’s back, and he took a deep breath, wishing they could get engaged right away.
Although Cheng Yi said that only one dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes would do, An Yan made four dishes and cooked another soup out of guilt and love.
Although he had eaten lunch at Ren Bo’s house earlier, he was at someone else’s home, so An Yan didn’t eat much. In addition, he was with a respected old-timer, a fiery young girl, and a middle-aged male with a passionate, eloquent voice.
An Yan saw that Cheng Yi was eating well, and he followed suit. He moved his chopsticks a few times, sort of accompanying him during the meal.
After they finished eating, the two of them relaxed for awhile, and then started working on the transformation potion.
During this period of time, Cheng Yang continued to help him make ten transformation potions every day.
In the beginning, the transformation potion he made was able to work because he had a part of An Yan’s spiritual power fused with his, but as time went on, the potions became increasingly less effective. Two days ago, the potions he made no longer worked at all.
This experiment was enough to show that the key to the transformation potion was An Yan’s spiritual power.
At the same time, An Yan was carrying out another experiment.
He asked Cheng Yi to make ten transformation potions for him every day. During this experiment, An Yan stopped cultivating with him.
Naturally, Cheng Yi was dissatisfied with this and felt particularly aggrieved. After all, such a good benefit had to be interrupted for so long.
However, Cheng Yi could only give in since the little one was very interested in this experiment, but at the same time, he did not forget to seek benefits in other ways.
The experiment lasted two days less than Cheng Yang’s. In that short time, all the transformation potions Cheng Yi had made so far worked smoothly, and no changes could be seen yet.
After completing the day’s ten transformation potions, An Yan quickly recorded the data from today’s experiment: “I think… Of course, this is just my guess and it hasn’t been verified exactly yet. I don’t think your ability to make transformation potions would be reduced just because we stopped cultivating together. ”
Cheng Yi’s eyes faintly flashed, “I think so too.”
Although the number of experiments was still too small to come to a definite conclusion, Cheng Yi knew the situation in his spiritual domain better than anyone else.
Although it was regrettable that he hadn’t cultivated with the little one during this period of time, he was very clear that his spiritual domain hadn’t changed in any way as a result.
It was as if his spiritual domain had undergone a qualitative change and would not revert back to its initial state just because the substance that had caused this change had disappeared.
In contrast, if only a part of the little one’s spiritual energy was absorbed, it would only cause a quantitative change.
Although this change was also tangible, it did not cause a real change to the spiritual domain itself, and when this part of the spiritual power was used up, these changes would also disappear.
An Yan seemed to want to say something else, but he hesitated, and he finally did not say anything.
Cheng Yi spoke up for him when he noticed his silence. “Does Yan Yan want to help others awaken the ability to make transformation potions by cultivating together?”
An Yan immediately shook his head repeatedly, “No, that didn’t cross his mind.”
Although he did consider such a thought for a moment, he quickly dismissed it.
He did not mind helping others, but he could distinguish who was more important to him.
Even if such a method could help millions of people, he would not do it if it would hurt Cheng Yi. So he is a very selfish person who puts the people he cares about first and others second.
Cheng Yi raised his eyebrows slightly and said, “Wasn’t this what you wanted to say just now?”
He had already thought it over. If the little one said this out loud, he would refuse it without hesitation, even if he knew that his answer would disappoint and upset the little one.
He was a very selfish person, and there was no way he could agree with letting the little one train with anyone else for the sake of the so-called development of humanity.
Even if everyone came forward to accuse him, Cheng Yi would still not change his stance.
Unless, of course, the little one is separated from him.
But of course, something like that is even more unlikely to happen.
An Yan scratched his head in embarrassment and smiled, “Of course not. How could I possibly bring up such a thing knowing that you don’t want me to cultivate with anyone else?”
Cheng Yi’s cloudy mood immediately cleared up. “Then what did Yan Yan want to say?”
An Yan hurriedly said what he had in mind in order not to case a misunderstanding, “Since there is no way to help other people gain the ability to make transformation potions, maybe we should shelf it for now and bring it up later. As long as I can protect myself, there should be no problem, right? ”
An Yan felt that it would be a pity if only a few of them knew about the transformation potion, and it would also be a shame if he didn’t get the chance to appear in his hamster form openly. So they would bring out the transformation potion at the right time even if other people wouldn’t be able to make it.
He knew that he shouldn’t take such a risk, nor did he need to, but he was still a bit foolish in his heart.
He had hesitated and dismissed the idea, but he was now looking forward to the day.
Compared to An Yan’s entanglement, Cheng Yi was now in a relaxed mood. Compared to his previous guesses, An Yan’s worries were not that troublesome.
He really did not want the little one to take any risks, but sometimes avoiding them was not the best option.
As the little one had just said, as long as he was able to protect him, many problems would no longer be a problem.
“Although it’s impossible to bring out the transformation potion now, we could find the right time in the future, “Cheng Yi reached out and rubbed An Yan’s hair. He met his expectant gaze, and said softly, “We can wait for that time together.”
After this issue, they started the pre-competition training. Although they had been busy with various things lately, the most important thing was, of course, the competition that was in progress.
The competition is now in its sixth round, and although the rules for the next round had not yet been announced, everyone guessed that the next round would be individual matches.
As to whether these individual matches would be on the map or in some other way, everyone was unsure.
But no matter which way the competition went, there would be no problems as long as one was strong.
All An Yan had to do now was to work hard to improve his strength and try to advance in the next round. The ultimate championship would then be one match away.
Every contestant shared this thought. But if others knew that An Yan also thought this way, they would be very surprised.
It was mainly because An Yan’s strength was so strong that it had almost reached an unbelievable level. In addition to Cheng Yi’s superb mecha piloting ability, everyone felt that the champions of this competition would undoubtedly be An Yan and Cheng Yi.
