Chapter 203. Holidays Are for Enjoying Life
At the East China border.
The morning light tore through the desert mist, and a strand of golden radiance slanted into the room, reflecting off the snowy-white, soft bed.
“Another new day. And it is even a holiday.”
Jiang Yichen stretched lazily and sat up from the bed, the corners of his lips rising.
Although for him, every day was a pleasant holiday.
A holiday defined by others still felt different when he spent it.
He had to think about how he should spend this wonderful day and where he should go to have fun.
A troubled look appeared on Jiang Yichen’s face. He sighed, thinking that humans really were strange creatures.
When they could not play, they were always thinking about where it would be fun to go.
But when they truly had time to play, they could not think of anything.
After hesitating for a while, he shook his head and opened the system panel.
“A wonderful day should begin with opening a gift pack first.”
He still had not opened the High-Level Gift Pack he had obtained from Instructor Qin yesterday.
“System, open the gift pack!”
【Congratulations, Host. You have obtained: Random Pack of Three Ninth-Rank Magical Artifacts, Spontaneous Travel Experience Voucher.】
Jiang Yichen’s gaze swept over the rewards.
There was nothing much to say about the three ninth-rank Magical Artifacts. They were good items.
From the time he awakened the system until now, he had only obtained eight ninth-rank Magical Artifacts in total. Unlike seventh- and eighth-rank items, which had almost piled up like mountains.
This showed how rare ninth-rank Magical Artifacts were.
Of course, this kind of reward could no longer stir much emotion in Jiang Yichen’s heart.
So he directly tapped open the introduction for the other reward.
【Spontaneous Travel Experience Voucher: Are you still struggling over where to go during your holiday? Why not go on a mystery-box trip on a whim?】
Hm?
Jiang Yichen raised his brows. System buddy, you are simply too considerate.
You will not even make me worry about how I should enjoy my holiday. For the sake of my slacking life, you have truly gone to great pains.
He smiled. “A mystery-box trip? That sounds interesting.”
Knock, knock, knock!
At this moment, someone knocked on the door.
“Brother Yichen, breakfast is ready. Hurry and get up.”
Su Linyu’s sweet voice came from outside the door.
“All right, right away,” Jiang Yichen replied. Looking at the sunlight outside the window and thinking of his virtuous, pure-hearted fiancée, he could not help but smile happily.
After washing up, he walked into the living room and leisurely began eating breakfast.
“Brother Yichen, since today is a holiday, I will not cultivate. How about I spend the whole day playing games with you?”
Su Linyu’s eyes were lively, and there was a hint of guilt in them.
Over the past half a month, she had spent all her free time cultivating, so she had spent less and less time with Brother Yichen.
Today, she had to make it up to Brother Yichen properly.
Play games?
Jiang Yichen thought for a moment, then shook his head. “No. Let us go traveling today.”
“Traveling?” Su Linyu rested her chin on her hand and pondered for a moment. She did not reject the idea. Instead, she nodded and said, “Then I will research the travel guides for East China’s scenic areas right now. I will definitely give Brother Yichen a beautiful memory.”
After saying that, Su Linyu took out her phone and began frantically searching for information.
Jiang Yichen could not help but smile. He remembered how, in his previous life, it had taken him tremendous effort just to invite Lin Wan on a summer vacation trip.
He had also spent a lot of time looking up travel guides, and had even visited the locations in advance, all to give her a wonderful experience.
But now, he had become the one enjoying everything. The feeling of being loved by someone was truly wonderful.
Jiang Yichen snatched Su Linyu’s phone away. “Stop looking for guides. I have already arranged everything.”
When Su Linyu heard this, surprise appeared on her little face. “Brother Yichen, really?”
Seeing Jiang Yichen nod, her red lips curved into a happy smile, and her two little dimples were especially eye-catching.
Wow! Brother Yichen really cares about me. He must have stayed up late last night making a travel guide just to surprise me.
I knew it. As long as I keep treating Brother Yichen well, he will eventually see my good points.
Snap!
Seeing Su Linyu spacing out, Jiang Yichen flicked her forehead. “What are you thinking about?”
Su Linyu covered her forehead, lowered her head, and secretly smiled. “Nothing. I just feel that Brother Yichen treats me so well. You actually spent the effort to prepare a travel guide in advance.”
“...” Jiang Yichen thought of the Travel Experience Voucher the system had given him and smiled awkwardly.
“Mm... We will not call Chu Xingchen and Tang Long.”
Su Linyu smiled and nodded. “They would not come either. Tang Long took his Second Class Merit medal home to show off, and Chu Xingchen said that the trial for the Great Rift Valley Beast Tide case is today. He is going to see Jiang Feng.”
“A trial? So soon?”
Su Linyu hummed in agreement. “I also think it is strange. Maybe they are afraid that something unexpected might happen halfway through. After all, Zhou Yu is the Zhou Family’s only son, so the Zhou Family will definitely think of every possible way to save him.”
Jiang Yichen also felt that this made sense, so he threw the matter to the back of his mind.
Why think about such annoying people? Living his own life happily was the most important thing.
After the meal, Su Linyu changed into a pink dress, put on a lace straw hat, lifted the hem of her skirt, and twirled in front of Jiang Yichen.
“Brother Yichen, where are we going?” Her eyes were full of anticipation.
Jiang Yichen took out the “Spontaneous Travel Experience Voucher” from the System Space. “Let us go on a trip with no destination, a journey we set off on the moment we decide.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Experience Voucher in his hand released a dim glow and vanished into thin air.
While Su Linyu was still dazed, ripples spread through the space around the two of them, slowly tearing open a deep, dark crack.
The two of them instantly disappeared from where they stood.
When they opened their eyes again, a salty sea breeze rushed toward their faces, and the cries of seagulls came to their ears.
Su Linyu turned her head in great amazement. She gazed at the boundless sea in the distance and felt the fine, soft sand beneath her feet.
“Wow! It is the sea! This is my first time truly seeing it.”
Su Linyu’s eyes were full of light as she stared into the distance.
Jiang Yichen also nodded slightly. After Huaxia established its Five Great Regions, the sea had been classified as a dangerous area. The Demonic Beasts in the ocean were even more ferocious than those on land.
It could be said that their generation had only ever seen what the sea looked like on television while growing up.
“Do you like it?” Jiang Yichen asked with a smile.
Su Linyu nodded like a chick pecking at rice. “I love it so much. Brother Yichen, you put so much thought into this.”
She could not wait to take off her shoes. Barefoot, she stepped onto the soft beach while humming a song.
It was as if everything around her was endlessly attractive.
Jiang Yichen also took off his shoes, put on his sunglasses, and gazed at the blue sea and sky. His mood was exceptionally relaxed.
In the military district, there was always an atmosphere of hard work and ambition hanging over everything, giving people the feeling that if they did not work hard, they would get beaten.
But standing here, merely smelling the salty sea breeze made his whole body feel relaxed.
“Brother Yichen, can we build a castle with sand?” Su Linyu squatted on the beach, scooped up some sand, and looked at him with shining eyes.
Jiang Yichen burst into laughter and summoned Xiao Bai. “Sure. Xiao Bai, it must be quite stuffy inside the space. Come out and get some fresh air too.”
Xiao Bai let out a cry. It seemed very cheerful as it rubbed its head against Jiang Yichen’s thigh.
Jiang Yichen sat down beside Su Linyu. Seeing how interested she was, he also joined the game of building a castle.
It was a little childish, but as long as they were happy, that was enough.
This was what enjoying life truly meant!
