Esper X Family – Chapter 128 – What Does That Mean?

Ye Yao returned home for dinner.

She had merely put on a show at the Countermeasures Bureau’s training ground today.

She casually tested her strength, stamina, and agility, letting the Bureau know that she was utterly weak in these aspects.

Afterward, she tested her mental power and returned immediately.

She had no intention of lingering behind.

Demonstrate my ability?

Sorry!

Not in the mood, my state is off, and my internet is lagging!

Next time for sure!

She had finally managed to feel inflated, only for her stern father to make her lose so thoroughly.

Right now, she was still feeling a bit depressed.

It could be said that Lou Wei’s lesson in humility was quite effective.

Ye Yao had planned to inflate her power further before hissing at the Cybertronian!

Fifty thousand mental power was probably Lou Wei’s limit.

But Ye Yao’s limit was far beyond that!

First, she needed to find new family members.

That was a bit challenging.

Ye Yao glanced around and suddenly noticed that Lou Wei was surprisingly home for dinner.

He usually didn’t eat with them.

He had always acted like a super busy person.

But now, he seemed to be in a rather good state.

Ye Yao had thought that using such a powerful move would leave Lou Wei somewhat exhausted.

But how was he so composed?

“I-I’m back,” Ye Yao stammered, almost having a psychological shadow of Lou Wei.

But then she remembered that she wasn’t in her Sequence 008 form.

She wouldn’t be crushed.

Only then did she relax a bit.

In a way, Ye Yao felt a certain sense of ease.

Her fission body had fought Lou Wei to the death at the Top of the Forbidden City ¹ Reference to a drama series. I’m not very interested in it so I don’t research much. and had been utterly annihilated once.

Yet, her main body could still chat and laugh with this terrifying man.

Rеаⅾ оո ΚαtRеaԁiոɡСаfе

As long as her other identity wasn’t exposed.

There was nothing to panic about.

“Mm.”

Lou Wei nodded in response, continuing to read the newspaper as he waited for dinner.

The serious mode from earlier wasn’t without its side effects.

Instead of protecting her from far away, he now had to protect her from a closer distance.

He would likely appear frequently in Ye Yao’s sight over the next few days.

After a few days, he would be able to fully control the situation.

For now, he could only exert ninety percent of his strength.

【Lou Wei can only exert ninety percent of his strength, so he will appear frequently in your sight over the next few days.】

Damn!

You didn’t even get scratched, and you’re claiming to be severely injured?

Ye Yao had never felt so insulted!

This is too much!

No.

She absolutely had to steal all of Lou Wei’s secrets.

System, give me your strength!

Since she couldn’t make her stern father suffer on the battlefield, she could only make him a mole for a mental victory!

【Lou Wei and other decision-makers have discussed changing Sequence 008’s designation to Sequence 002.】

Ye Yao’s eyes lit up.

Both the first and second spots on the list were hers now!

Awesome!

This is the best news.

【Lou Wei suggested that the Countermeasures Bureau treat Sequence Zero as an absolutely neutral faction.

As long as they don’t ignore order and rules, they won’t be targeted or antagonized by Countermeasures Bureau Espers.】

Ye Yao’s eyes lit up again.

She took back her previous statement.

This is the bestest news.

From now on, Mu Luo wouldn’t have to go out to bring food for everyone.

They could eat out wherever they wanted.

They could even go shopping without being treated like fugitives.

Rеαԁ οո КаtReаⅾіոɡCafe

They wouldn’t have to worry about everyone starving if something happened to Mu Luo.

Ye Yao began to think about where to celebrate with Wu Mi and the others tonight.

Although she had suffered a crushing defeat against the Dayun Truck, that didn’t mean that there was nothing to celebrate.

They must have a feast!

But then again.

Ye Yao’s competitive spirit had also been stirred up by Lou Wei.

She was the one with the system’s divine power and the most overpowered ability.

Yet, she still couldn’t win despite giving it her all.

How could someone be so strong?

Ye Yao’s desire to challenge the Dayun Truck would never disappear.

There could only be one strongest.

Once her power caught up to Lou Wei’s, she would challenge him again.

She had to find a way to uncover his weaknesses.

Ye Yao fell into deep thought.

Then, she took out her phone, opened a page, and handed it to Lou Wei.

“Can you buy this?”

“What is it?” Lou Wei put down the newspaper.

“A game console, for the TV. After you get off work, we can play together.”

Lou Wei: “?”

What does that mean?

Lou Wei, someone who was capable of parallel thinking, nearly found himself at a loss for words.

He then remembered that Ye Yao had adapted well to their current father-daughter relationship.

She hadn’t expressed any particular thoughts about it.

She seemed indifferent, making it easy for Lou Wei to not interact much with her.

But now, she suddenly came over and invited him to play games.

Such an abnormal move left Lou Wei in a state of mental chaos.

【Lou Wei is thinking…】

Then came a long essay.

Ye Yao was speechless.

Hey! It’s just a game! Why think so much about it!?

Reaⅾ oո КαtReαԁіngСafе

Ugh, it looks exhausting.

Too long, didn’t read!

“Um, do you really need to hesitate for so long?”

“Up to you, I’m fine with it. Just ask me if you run out of pocket money.”

Lou Wei could only nod in agreement.

Such trivial matters could be decided easily.

But since it involved himself, he wasn’t sure how to handle it optimally.

“Then it’s settled! Just wait, my gaming skills are awesome. You’ll definitely be impressed!”

Ye Yao happily took Luo Jianhua back to her room.

If she couldn’t win on the battlefield, couldn’t she beat him in a game?

She would definitely make Lou Wei play characters with outdated stats ² Those that lost their place in the meta because of powercreep. .

Then, she would pick the current version’s T0 ³ The absolute best character, the kind that gets their own tier in tier lists. stat monster.

And get her revenge!

Xiao Jing, who was wearing an apron, walked over to Lou Wei.

She had heard everything clearly.

“She’s finally acting a bit more normal~”

“Xiao Jing, what do you think this means?”

Although Xiao Jing wasn’t a real mother, she had plenty of motherly experience.

But Lou Wei had gone through a period akin to “Purging Demons for Sixty Years ⁴ A reference to Zhang Sanfeng, an important recurring character in Jin Yong’s novels. He’s based on Zhang Sanfeng, a taoist monk who many believe to be the (possible, not definitive) inventor of Tai Chi. Anyway, the fictional Zhang Sanfeng is known for spending 60 years eliminating demons alone. Oh, and he’s the founder of the Wudang sect in the novels. ”.

From adolescence to maturity, he had thought mostly about fighting and killing.

His understanding of raising a child was limited to a hands-off approach.

Everything else was left to Xiao Jing.

“Isn’t it obvious? Little Ye Yao must be lacking fatherly love~

You’ve been a bit cold toward her. Spending some time to play games with her is good.

It’s beneficial for her mental and physical health.”

Xiao Jing spoke confidently, as if she had Ye Yao’s psychology all figured out.

If Ye Yao heard Xiao Jing’s words, she would definitely lose her composure.

L-Lacking fatherly love?

No thanks.

She had already felt enough fatherly love on the ocean.

People say that fatherly love is like a mountain.

Rеаd οո ΚatRеαԁiոɡСаfe

But Ye Yao could clearly feel that fatherly love was like a typhoon passing through.

Snap, and you’re dead.

Scarier than a belt.

So terrifying, brothers.

Ye Yao didn’t think too much about it. She just wanted to crush this Dayun Truck in the gaming world!

And reclaim her victory!

Lou Wei nodded thoughtfully.

“Mm, I’ll give it a try.”

“That’s right, that’s right~ That’s the spirit~ You’re finally starting to look like a father.”

Xiao Jing was the happiest here.

She loved raising children.

The more normal the family atmosphere, the better.

Not only did the child need abundant maternal love, but paternal love couldn’t be lacking either.

How could a normal family be without a reliable father?

Inside the room.

Ye Yao sat down with Luo Jianhua.

“Little Luo, we’re watching Transformers tonight.

I’ve discovered that the alien disguised as a truck have insane stats.

He’s completely disrupting the Dayun ecosystem on Earth.

We absolutely have to criticize him thoroughly!”

Luo Jianhua: “?”

What nonsense is Sister talking about?

Has she been provoked?
