Bang!
Li Ran leapt down from a stone wall more than five meters high. His knees bent slightly as he landed firmly on the ground.
Turning back to glance, a row of gray stone walls had been neatly built.
The towering stone walls, bathed in golden sunlight, radiated a majestic nobility and a calm, unshakable strength.
This was the result of just half a day's work.
In the livestream chat—
"Holy crap, did I just see that right? The streamer just jumped off a five- or six-meter-high wall?! He just jumped?!"
"Newbie, huh? We've seen this kind of thing too many times—we're numb to it."
"Exactly. We've witnessed even crazier stuff. This? This is nothing."
"Are you guys serious? No way. Did the streamer just use some kind of qinggong (one of the kung fu)? Is he a martial arts master?"
"Calm down, young one. The streamer said himself—believe in science."
"His exact words were: 'As long as you master high school knowledge, you can solve all problems in daily life.' Right, big brain? @Overlooking The World."
Overlooking The World: "Hmm… from a physics perspective, what he did is completely reasonable. It just places high demands on muscular and skeletal strength."
"See? Kids these days are so easily shocked."
"You think he's a martial arts master now, but give it a few more days and you'll be saying martial arts masters are just average. Because this guy? He's a god."
Veteran viewers teasing newcomers had become a running gag in the stream.
Li Ran paid them no mind and silently packed up the pulley system and ropes on the trees. A quick glance at the time—just past 12:30 PM.
Not bad. Finishing the stone wall portion by noon was ahead of schedule.
Next up was capping the first level and building the second-floor wooden structure.
The second floor wouldn't require much brute strength—just skill and finesse.
No need to rush. He decided to wait until late afternoon, when the sun was about to set, before getting started again.
Li Ran: "I'm ending the stream now to make lunch. You guys should take a break and eat something too."
"What? It's noon already? That flew by!"
"Where did the time go? The streamer stole it!"
"Is it weird that I can't stop watching him lift rocks and work?"
"Same illness here. This must be fangirl syndrome."
Mid Lane King sent a Rocket gift.
Mid Lane King: "Li, don't go! Just stream your lunch too."
Li's Little Cutie sent a Rocket.
Li's Little Cutie: "Yeah, we wanna see what veggies you eat to maintain that perfect figure!"
Li Ran: "I'm taking a nap after this. I can't exactly stream myself sleeping, can I?"
As soon as he said that, a flurry of expensive gifts flooded the screen.
Hanhan's Mom sent a Sports Car.
Hanhan's Mom: "I want to watch! I can't wait anymore!"
Li's Little Cutie sent a Yacht.
Li's Little Cutie: "Finally, a chance to admire your sleeping face—wahahaha!"
I'm The Real Mama sent a Plane.
I'm The Real Mama: "Ten thousand signatures begging the streamer to stream his nap!"
Li Ran stayed firm: "That's enough. You guys get some rest too."
"Wait, streamer—when will you be back online this afternoon? Give us a heads-up!"
"Around two o'clock. This afternoon, I'll take you all on a walk up the mountain."
Without waiting for reactions, Li Ran shut down the stream.

……
Li Ran's mouth twitched. Fangirls are terrifying creatures indeed…
Back in the kitchen, Liang Yuqing was holding a bundle of chopsticks, teaching Hanhan how to count.
"Yuqing, go to the vegetable garden and pick a few tomatoes."
"Okay!"
Once the little girl left, Li Ran opened the freezer and took out a slab of frozen pork ribs. He used the mini particle collider embedded in the fridge to defrost it. In under two minutes, it was fully thawed.
He chopped the ribs into chunks, rinsed them, then blanched them in a cold pot. After boiling and another quick rinse, he started the braise…
Li Ran moved quickly. In under half an hour, two steaming hot dishes—one meat, one veggie—were on the table.
The meat dish was braised pork ribs with potatoes. The veggie dish was scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Both looked and smelled amazing.
For a moment, the whole house was filled with delicious aromas.
The two humans and one bear ate until they were drenched in sweat. Then, Li Ran opened the fridge, adjusted the temperature to 20C, and soon the room became cool and comfortable.
"Ran, your fridge is so weird. It works without electricity?"
Li Ran had disconnected all the wiring before tearing down the old house, and the back of the fridge clearly had no power cable. Finally, the sharp-eyed girl noticed.
Li Ran made something up on the spot: "It uses dry ice inside—doesn't need to be plugged in."
"Ran, what's dry ice?"
"You're still too young. Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand. Once you grow up and study hard, you'll figure it out."
"Oh…"
Li Ran: "Eat up. Fill your stomach. After lunch, I'll take you down the mountain."
"Huh?" Liang Yuqing blinked. "But my grandma's not back yet—I can't even get in the house."
Li Ran: "Don't worry, someone else in the village will be home."
Liang Yuqing quickly shook her head like a rattle drum. "Nope! They made plans to go to town after lunch and play mahjong."
Li Ran: "...You heard that yourself?"
"Yeah. Every time Grandma visits relatives, she plays cards—either mahjong or Big Two. And she always plays late. If she comes back late today, she probably won't come pick me up either."
Li Ran cursed silently in his head.
So your grandma's treating my place like a daycare now?
