Ye Jiu went downstairs and briefly reported the situation to Huai You, summarizing that the young master had accepted her.
Huaiyou repeatedly praised, "Good boy, you can definitely lead him out of this. He's still young, and the Huai family needs him."
Ye Jiu felt that the sentence was a bit strange. She frowned and thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out what was wrong. In short, it made her feel uncomfortable.
Oh right, with a family business as large as the Huai family's, why would they need a 12-year-old child?! What they really need is S-level mental strength...
"Butler, come here."
The butler robot arrived in response. "Master, what are your orders?"
"Clean up the room next to the young master for Miss Ye to live in, and enter Miss Ye's information into the access control system. From now on, she will also be a member of this family."
"Yes, Master."
After giving his instructions, Huaiyou patted Ye Jiu on the shoulder and said, "You should spend some time with him. I have things to do at the company, so I'll leave Xiao Jin to you."
After saying that, he and Yue Wenxin left the villa.
Ye Jiu was so shocked she didn't know what to say. Huh? He just abandoned her and left?!
The robot butler's mechanical voice announced, "Ms. Ye, your room is ready. Welcome!"
Ye Jiu belatedly realized that in such a large villa, all the servants she saw seemed to be robots, so she asked, "Aren't there any human servants in the villa?"
"No, Miss Ye, is there something you need? I can do better than humans can do it."
"So, do Mr. and Mrs. Huai spend a lot of time at home?"
"Records show that I spent a total of 10 hours over seven days."
Ye Jiu was utterly astonished. With her parents gone and no one else around, wasn't this practically a place where Huai Jin was imprisoned?!
"Where is the young master? Does he live here year-round?"
"Yes, the young master only left for 10 hours in seven days."
Huh? One stayed for 10 hours, and the other was only absent for 10 hours. That's outrageous.
Anyone would go crazy in this situation, it's truly rare that the young master is still in a normal mental state.
Ye Jiu went upstairs and knocked on Huai Jin's door. "May I come in?"
Huai Jin was sweating profusely, unable to get into the wheelchair. He didn't want her to come in and see him like this, but he couldn't get in himself.
Receiving no response, Ye Jiu knocked on the door again. "Young Master, let me in! Your parents are gone, it's just you and me now! I was a little bored, so I came to play with you!"
Panting heavily, Huai Jin collapsed to the ground, saying in despair, "Come in."
The door lock has voiceprint recognition, and the door opened immediately after Huaijin agreed.
Ye Jiu pushed open the door and immediately saw Huai Jin lying on the ground, with a wheelchair not far away. It looked like he had fallen, but how could he have fallen like that in the first place?
Ye Jiu took out a tissue to wipe his sweat.
She saw his disheveled state and how he had just cried, so he simply gave up and opened his arms for her to hug him. "Carry me to bed, I can't get up."
Because of taking care of her mother, Ye Jiu had developed great strength, so Huai Jin's weight was naturally a piece of cake for her.
Ye Jiu picked him up in a princess carry and finally placed him on the bed.
Huai Jin forced a smile that looked more like a grimace. "Am I really that useless?"
"No way, you're a genius who's tested three S-class mechs."
These words comforted him, and he asked again, "Will you live with me from now on? I'm always alone in this house."
"Yes, I live next door to you."
"Don't you think I'm a nuisance..." Huai Jin whispered.
Ye Jiu shook his head. How could he have such a thought? "No, I'm just doing things for money."
Huaijin was satisfied and said willfully, "Carry me to the toilet!"
Ye Jiu naturally did as she was told, picking him up and placing him on the toilet. "Call me when you're done, I'll be waiting for you at the door."
Ten minutes later, Huaijin's muffled voice came through: "I'm all better."
Ye Jiu pushed open the door and picked him up again. Huai Jin wrapped his arms around her neck and asked, "Am I heavy?"
"Not heavy, too thin."
Ye Jiu was telling the truth. When she held the 12-year-old boy in her arms, he weighed just over 60 pounds, which was extremely thin for his age.
"That's good." He was afraid that she would dislike him because he was too heavy.
He gently placed Huaijin back on the bed and carefully grasped the hem of her clothes. "Are we friends now?"
"Yes, of course it counts."
Huaijin grinned, "You're my first friend."
Ye Jiu pressed her temples, "What a tragedy, look at the poor child."
Just as Ye Jiu finished marveling at the sight, he noticed the halo above Ye Jiu's head. Oh my god, his temples hurt even more.
The two chatted casually until nightfall, and Huaijin was too excited to sleep.
"Can you sleep with me tonight?"
"No, there are differences between men and women."
"Okay." Huaijin regretfully pulled the blanket up to cover half of her face.
"But I'll wait until you fall asleep before I leave."
Huaijin smiled again, "Okay!"
He had never spoken so much before, he thought. But he just wanted to talk to her. At school, everyone thought he was deaf and ignored him, but Ye Jiu was different; she responded to every word he said.
Huai Jin glanced cautiously at Ye Jiu, who was placing the wheelchair next to his bed, and asked, "Can we do this again tomorrow?"
"What?"
"Let's chat, and then you'll sleep with me."
"Sure, I live right next door."
Huai Jin closed his eyes with relief after receiving a satisfactory answer. Soon after, he heard even and deep breathing. Ye Jiu sat by his bedside and used her abilities.
While he's asleep, she'll test this cheat code; she wants to see how it works.
Because his mental energy was too abundant and dense, and there were many knots, Ye Jiu felt that this was not an easy task... and was prepared for a protracted battle that would last for several years.
I picked up a thread at random, like looking for a loose end of yarn, and searched for ages without finding the end.
Ye Jiu: ...I think I'll be doing this for more than ten years.
