Esper X Family – Chapter 39 – Can We Make Peace?

As soon as Ye Yao returned to her room, she remembered something.

“Oh no, I forgot to tell them that my situation is a bit special.”

Ye Yao immediately clutched her head in despair.

“Waah… how should I explain it tomorrow? Will Wu Mi be sad? But the fission body can’t stay for too long either…”

What’s done is done.

She could only sleep first.

She would deal with the rest after waking up.

“Feels like something’s missing in my arms. Should I buy a hug pillow?”

Ye Yao simply tossed all her worries aside, pulled the blanket over her head, and fell into a deep sleep.

She would just wait for Luo Jianhua to wake her up tomorrow.

Ye Yao soon fell into a peaceful slumber.

After an unknown amount of time.

A soft voice faintly reached Ye Yao’s ears.

“Sister, it’s time to get up. Breakfast is ready~”

“Mmh…”

To be honest.

Ye Yao really wanted to stay in bed.

She had come back too late last night.

Although her main body had slept normally.

She subconsciously felt that she hadn’t slept enough.

This made Ye Yao’s desire to stay in bed unusually strong.

She wanted to stay until the sun was high in the sky.

But Luo Jianhua thought that her voice was too soft and Ye Yao hadn’t heard her, so she leaned closer to the white-haired loli.

“Time to get up.”

Rеаԁ oո ΚαtReαԁingСαfе

Such a gentle voice was destined to make it hard for anyone to wake up quickly.

At least, that’s what Ye Yao thought.

Although she liked it, it wasn’t as effective as the annoying school alarm.

Not only did she not want to wake up, but she also wanted to stay in bed even more.

Staying in bed was the most comfortable form of slacking off.

It not only allowed for complete relaxation but also brought happiness.

Luo Jianhua’s gentle voice was like a lullaby, making it a great way to help her sleep.

Seeing Ye Yao motionless, Luo Jianhua couldn’t help but sigh softly.

“Why is Sister so lazy today? If you don’t get up soon, breakfast will get cold.”

“Mmm… let me sleep for ten more minutes~ You should join me too~”

Ye Yao’s curled-up body moved slightly, and she pulled the leaning Luo Jianhua into her arms.

“Kyah!” Luo Jianhua let out a surprised cry.

Smelling the milky fragrance so close, Ye Yao felt even more inclined to sleep.

“So soft and fragrant. If I had hugged her last night, I would’ve slept even better…”

In her drowsy state, Ye Yao’s consciousness was extremely unclear.

She hugged the little loli who had delivered herself to her doorstep without a hint of shame.

After all, she’s a little sister sent by the country.

No reason not to cuddle her.

If Luo Jianhua came to her room to sleep together every night, would she save money on buying a hug pillow?

Hmm.

Then again, she didn’t need to save.

After all, the pocket money Lou Wei gave her was enough for her to spend freely without running out.

“Y-Ye Yao?!”

Luo Jianhua was blushing slightly as she lay on top of Ye Yao and instinctively called out her name.

She didn’t dare move.

Or rather, she couldn’t move.

Ye Yao’s hands tightly held her back, making it impossible to get up.

With Luo Jianhua’s strength, she could easily break free.

But doing so might hurt Ye Yao, whose body was much more fragile.

This white-haired loli’s physical strength couldn’t compare to Luo Jianhua, who had undergone special training.

Luo Jianhua felt that even a light touch could make her cry for a long time.

Probably.

After about ten seconds or so.

Luo Jianhua’s heartbeat gradually stabilized, and her body began to relax.

“Sigh, really, Sister. You can get up normally yesterday. Why are you staying in bed today?”

“Because… I came back too late last night.”

Ye Yao mumbled in her drowsiness.

Naturally, she couldn’t fall asleep so quickly.

So she answered Luo Jianhua’s question subconsciously.

Luo Jianhua: “???”

Came back too late last night?

No.

Luo Jianhua remembered clearly.

Last night, Ye Yao had played games all night before going to sleep.

She had even watched her play the entire night.

Yet Ye Yao casually mentioned coming back late.

And her drowsy words didn’t sound like a lie.

Neither Xiao Jing nor Lou Wei, nor any other Esper, would let Ye Yao go out so late.

Luo Jianhua immediately realized something.

She gently shifted on Ye Yao’s body, bringing her cherry lips close to the white-haired loli’s ear.

“Did Sister sneak out last night?”

“Mn…”

Rеаⅾ οո КаtRеаԁinɡСafe

Ye Yao responded softly, but she quickly woke up and slowly opened her eyes.

“…Mn?”

Did I just reveal something very bad?

Ye Yao’s hands, which were holding Luo Jianhua, gradually loosened.

Luo Jianhua sat up on the edge of the bed, staring at Ye Yao lying on the bed with a terrifyingly calm expression.

“I see. So, when Sister said she was going to sleep and pushed me out of the room last night, it was to sneak out alone?”

“Eek!”

Ye Yao was instantly wide awake.

What’s going on?

This calm tone is giving me goosebumps!

She glanced up.

【Luo Jianhua is angry that you sneaked out without telling her.】

Well, that’s obvious!

Useless system!

“Um, Little Luo, can we make peace?”

Ye Yao couldn’t help but swallow nervously.

The Luo Jianhua from the beginning would never have shown such dissatisfaction.

Back then, she was here on a mission and was still cautious of Ye Yao’s identity as someone who could destroy the world.

But Ye Yao had asked her to show her true self and let go of the heavy burden on her shoulders.

As a result, Ye Yao was now feeling the weight of Luo Jianhua’s emotions.

It was hard to imagine that she, who was originally an adult, could be suppressed by a loli.

“……”

Luo Jianhua just stared at Ye Yao in silence for a few seconds, then let out a long sigh.

“Do you know what would happen if it wasn’t me who came to wake you up?”

“Probably.”

Ye Yao blinked.

Rеaԁ оո ΚatRеаⅾіngCαfе

If it hadn’t been Luo Jianhua, this particular loli, she wouldn’t have wanted to stay in bed, nor would she have hugged her to sleep.

She wouldn’t have accidentally revealed that she had sneaked out.

It was only because it was Luo Jianhua, the loli she had “won over”.

If it had been Xiao Jing or Lou Wei, Ye Yao wouldn’t have let her guard down so completely.

But to appease the little loli, it was better not to argue.

Ye Yao’s survival instinct was burning fiercely.

“If this gets exposed, the life you want might spiral out of control.”

Luo Jianhua took a deep breath.

“So, you must never slip up in front of anyone but me, understood?”

“Understood.” Ye Yao nodded obediently.

She had no desire to argue.

Luo Jianhua was easier to appease than expected.

No matter how mature she was, she was still a little loli after all.

Luo Jianhua finally smiled again.

“Then get up. I won’t tell anyone, and you’d better not tell Mo Qiuli either.”

“But Mo Qiuli already knows…” Ye Yao muttered softly.

Luo Jianhua’s smile instantly froze.

She seemed a little disappointed.

“So that’s how it is… Looks like you two are really close.”

“But she doesn’t know my real situation. She just thinks that I’m an ordinary Esper.” Ye Yao added.

“Then it’s fine~” Luo Jianhua became happy again.

【Luo Jianhua feels that she is still far ahead of Mo Qiuli.】

Ye Yao stifled a laugh.

Lolis are so funny.

No.

Lolis are so cute!
