Esper X Family – Chapter 25 – I Don’t Need an Overly Obedient Little Sister

Ye Yao was unaware that she had already been labeled as a member of a terrorist organization.

Even if she knew, there was no way she could plead her innocence.

Right now, she was more interested in engaging in a battle of wits with a certain little loli.

Luo Jianhua was adorable.

Her status as a genius Esper added another layer of charm to her.

Teasing her would definitely be a lot of fun.

Unfortunately, it wasn’t the right time yet.

Teasing without an established emotional foundation would only make her seem like a creepy loli.

Playing along with Luo Jianhua for a while wasn’t bad either. It didn’t interfere with her slacking off and was a decent pastime.

“I’ll be heading back then. See you tomorrow.”

It wasn’t until evening that Mo Qiuli prepared to go home.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t be active as a magical girl in the city for a week.

Otherwise, Mo Qiuli would have transformed into a magical girl at night and invited Ye Yao to patrol.

Loli Mercury had ultimately crash-landed.

There was still a week left before she could win the revival match.

Lou Wei was absent from dinner again.

He only appeared in the mornings.

Ye Yao couldn’t observe the situation to further understand the country’s decisions in real-time.

Xiao Jing was also a government agent.

But her mind was entirely occupied with the joy of raising a daughter, completely forgetting her identity and mission.

Just by watching her, Ye Yao felt overwhelmed by the sheer amount of maternal love.

It was something Ye Yao couldn’t bring herself to dislike.

Sending Xiao Jing to be a mother was perhaps the wisest decision.

Even the most sensitive child probably wouldn’t notice anything amiss.

Who would have thought that Ms. Xiao Jing, who was obsessed with doting on her daughter, was actually an A-rank Esper?

Her mental power of over 1,000 surpassed even that of the Flame Demon.

Looking at Luo Jianhua, who was quietly eating beside her…

【Luo Jianhua is observing your preferences, judging what you like to eat based on your choices and frequency of picking dishes, preparing to note them down and secretly cook them for you later.】

Good grief.

If Ye Yao didn’t know that this little girl had ulterior motives, she might have been moved.

This family was truly full of hidden talents.

“I’m going to take a bath.”

Ye Yao put down her chopsticks and prepared to wash up.

Mo Qiuli had gone home.

So her supercomputer could now be put to its full use.

If she didn’t download a few big games and max out the settings to torture the GPU and CPU, wouldn’t the computer have been bought in vain?

“Sister, can I join you?”

Luo Jianhua’s voice came from behind.

“Huh?”

A question mark popped up above Ye Yao’s head.

Luo Jianhua had also finished eating and was planning to bathe together with Ye Yao.

For her, this was also an opportunity to deepen their relationship and trust.

Just normal closeness wasn’t enough.

They needed to reach a point where they could share everything to complete the mission.

This was what the adults expected of her.

“I’d feel a bit shy bathing with someone else,” Ye Yao declined.

What a joke.

Even if she had turned into a loli, she couldn’t be so unrestrained.

This wasn’t a northern public bathhouse.

Ye Yao wasn’t used to bathing with others.

Especially since the other person is a girl.

Just thinking about it made her blush.

She wouldn’t even know where to look.

It felt worse than her fission body.

“We’re both girls, why are you shy?”

Luo Jianhua clearly didn’t want to give up this opportunity.

“It’s… not about being girls or not.”

Ye Yao didn’t know how to explain.

She couldn’t exactly say that she wanted private space to take off like a pilot, could she?

If Luo Jianhua found out, even her genius brain might short-circuit.

“Sister, I want to get along with you. Can we really not bathe together?”

Luo Jianhua looked at her with pleading eyes, using the advantage of her role as a little sister to launch an attack.

This wasn’t an unprepared offensive.

Throughout the day, Luo Jianhua had been pleasing Ye Yao with her role as the younger sister.

Acting obediently.

She was the perfect little sister character.

Even the most critical older sister wouldn’t be able to find fault with her.

Because Luo Jianhua’s performance was simply too endearing.

Not only was she exceptionally talented as an Esper, but her interpersonal skills were also genius-level.

Now, Ye Yao was in a position where she couldn’t speak too harshly.

After being served so attentively.

She couldn’t bring herself to refuse Luo Jianhua’s small request.

What a terrifyingly cunning loli.

“Alright.”

Ye Yao could only agree.

This wasn’t a loss. In fact, it was a huge gain.

Xiao Jing, who had been watching with great interest, felt like this was a golden opportunity.

“Can Mommy join too?”

“No, absolutely not, Mom!”

Rеαⅾ οո КatRеaⅾіոɡСαfе

Ye Yao firmly refused, leaving no room for negotiation.

Luo Jianhua is one thing.

But why is a super big sister like you trying to join?

At least Luo Jianhua had a legitimate reason.

Just thinking about what Xiao Jing wanted to do was terrifying.

Even without looking at her intentions, Ye Yao could guess what would happen if she was allowed to join.

This super daughter-con!

“You’re so decisive in rejecting me, Mommy’s heart is broken…”

“Acting cute won’t work, Mom. You’re not as cute as little sister.”

Maybe we’ll talk if there’s a task that gives attribute points.

I, Ye Yao, am a practical person!

A Mom who couldn’t give attribute points? Straight up rejection!

Ye Yao took Luo Jianhua’s hand and ran off, not giving Xiao Jing any chance to sneak in.

Xiao Jing sighed softly, feeling a bit regretful as she muttered to herself.

“Looks like Little Jianhua’s plan is going smoothly. Ye Yao seems to like her, but can we really develop into a real family?”

Luo Jianhua was here on a mission.

She wasn’t like her, who had poured her true feelings into it.

Moreover, Xiao Jing could tell that Luo Jianhua had accumulated too much pressure.

Was Luo Jianhua truly living for herself?

Xiao Jing hoped that Luo Jianhua could take this opportunity to escape the high-pressure environment she was in and find relief in this makeshift family.

Ye Yao brought Luo Jianhua back to her room to prepare their change of clothes.

“Since you just arrived today and didn’t bring enough clothes, you can wear mine for now.”

Ye Yao opened the wardrobe to pick out underwear.

Since their figures were similar, it didn’t matter what she wore.

It’s just that every time she picked out these cute underwear, she couldn’t help but feel like a pervert.

“I’ll do as you say.”

Luo Jianhua stood quietly behind her, a thoughtful glint in her eyes.

The plan was progressing smoothly.

Ye Yao was very easy to get along with, not as closed off as the adults had described. Instead, she gave off a mature vibe.

Most of the peers Luo Jianhua interacted with were the competitive type.

Both boys and girls focused their attention on her.

All vying for the title of the top genius.

Luo Jianhua found it all very childish.

At the same time, the pressure on her accumulated every day.

But after coming to this place, Luo Jianhua felt a great relief from her psychological burden.

After all, before coming here, she had been told that this was a daunting task.

Only she could possibly complete it.

Others simply couldn’t.

Carrying the reputation of a genius also came with great expectations.

So, Luo Jianhua chose to take on this mission.

To come into contact with someone even more talented than herself.

Ye Yao was someone who could destroy the world. Her future achievements would surpass even Lou Wei’s.

In front of her, Luo Jianhua willingly gave up all the pride that came with being a genius.

To give her all in becoming Ye Yao’s most beloved little sister.

At this moment, Ye Yao finished selecting the clothes and placed them in Luo Jianhua’s hands, gently patting her fragrant shoulder.

“Relax, I don’t need an overly obedient little sister.”

“Eh?”

Luo Jianhua was a bit flustered.
