Chapter 226: I only need two hours

Translator: _Min_ Editor: Rundi

Jiang Chen stood outside of Yaoyao’s room, and he gently knocked on the door.

Knock knock.

“Yaoyao, are you there?” Jiang Chen spoke softly.

It was a bit past ten already, he was not sure if Yaoyao had slept already.

“Ah, Brother Jiang Chen? Coming!” The loli’s surprise and joyful voice transmitted from the other side of the door, then immediately followed the sound of cotton slippers on the ground.

The door was pulled open. Yaoyao’s head peaked out as she looked at Jiang Chen in excitement.

“Are you back already?”

“Mhmm, although I have to go back tomorrow.” Seeing her adorable face, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but rub her hair.

With her head raised, her narrowed eyes enjoyed the caress of the firm hand on her head as adorable sounds came out of her throat.

“Are you going to sleep soon?”

“Mhmm! But since Brother Jiang Chen is here, I can sleep later.” She timidly played with her nightgown as she said with a blushed face.

“It won’t take too long. I only have a favor to ask Yaoyao, is that okay?” Jiang Chen smiled.

Seeing that Jiang Chen had a favor to ask, Yaoyao’s adorable eyes lit up.

She immediately nodded and raised her head, and patted her chest to assure him. “Mhmm! I got it!”

“Then I’ll have to count on you. Regarding the specifics, can I come in? I need to use the computer.”

Jiang Chen entered the room.

The room was filled with a fragrance similar to lilies. Thinking that it might be the natural odor of Yaoyao, Jiang Chen’s face turned red. But Yaoyao didn’t notice the unnatural look on Jiang Chen’s face as she ran to her table in excitement, sat on the chair, and turned on the computer.

She kicked off her slippers as her legs dangled joyfully.

The unguarded position was somewhat dangerous.

Jiang Chen gulped as he muttered to himself “I am not a loli lover”. Then he walked beside Yaoyao, put the briefcase down, and took out a USB and a chip from inside.

“The requirements of the program are inside the USB. Basically, it is to design an artificial intelligence software that is compatible with the autonomous driving control chip. You don’t have to make the program very powerful as long as the chip can operate, can you do that?”

“Of course, Yaoyao’s computer skills are great.” Yaoyao inserted the USB into the computer, hummed a song, and her fingers began to type rapidly on the control board.

Lines of code Jiang Chen didn’t understand flashed in front of his eyes. The outdated data inside the USB was easily converted to a language that the computer in the apocalypse could understand.

“Hmmm, it is not too difficult.” Yaoyao carefully read through the requirements line by line, and nodded her head.

“How long would you need?” Jiang Chen asked.

“Around two hours,” With a finger on her chin, Yaoyao said after she had given it some thought.

But the response of only needing two hours shocked Jiang Chen.

“Ahem, how, how long?”

“Umm? Two hours is enough. Since sister Sun Jiao already copied the entire database in the city library, this type of outdated technology would usually be stored as a form of an archive in the digital library. As long as the software with the highest compatibility is selected, some modifications can be done before it is good to go.” Yaoyao tilted her head as she confusedly looked at the stunned Jiang Chen.

“… This is insane.” Not knowing how to express his astonishment in his mind, the shocked Jiang Chen only managed to say this one statement.

A project that Dalmer Corporation expected to take five months to complete, Yaoyao said she could finish it in two hours. If they knew about this, what kind of interesting expression would appear on their faces?

Hearing Jiang Chen say this, Yaoyao nodded. Then she inserted the chip into the multifunction slot and began to work.

“Are you going to start now? Aren’t you going to sleep?” Seeing that Yaoyao began to work, Jiang Chen asked.

“Woo? It’s only ten, so it is not too late. Since brother will go back tomorrow, I, I want to finish it soon and help brother out.” Yaoyao’s face began to burn as she timidly lowered her head.

The pure sentence along with Yaoyao’s adorable look made Jiang Chen feel his heart warm. Overwhelmed with emotions, he hugged Yaoyao’s frail figure from the back.

“Wa.” The slightly frantic shout echoed beside his ear.

“Thank you, you are helping me a lot… Yaoyao is working very hard.” Sensing the warmness, Jiang Chen sincerely thanked her.

Other than the popular <New Era> game, the applications inside the base, whether it was production or management were all creations of Yaoyao. But the timid loli never said anything. She only diligently worked and contributed to his success.

Feeling the warm hug, as well as the praise she had been waiting for, Yaoyao’s face was red and her tender mouth curled up in joy.

“Hehe… No need to thank me. Yaoyao is brother’s, so, it is my duty to help you.”

“Do you want any rewards? I haven’t been rewarding you properly,” Jiang Chen said guiltily.

“Any kind of reward?” Yaoyao buried her head shyly, she blankly stared at her feet dangling as she murmured.

“Mhmm!”

When she received the confirmation, the red hue moved from her face to the tip of her ears.

With lips bitten, she exhaled several times before she finally worked up the courage.

“Last birthday… At night, could you hug me while I sleep?” Yaoyao wanted to say the thing that they didn’t get to finish last time, but because of her shyness, she changed her words mid-sentence.

“Uh?”

As if she had sensed Jiang Chen’s hesitation, Yaoyao carefully added, “You said anything is okay… Don’t worry, Yaoyao has been taking a shower every night, I smell good. Yaoyao is also light and gentle when sleeping, I can be a soft pillow…”

Her anxious explanation made it seem as if Jiang Chen was going to take back his promise.

Looking at Yaoyao’s hopeful expression, Jiang Chen gulped. He could not say no to such a cute expression. Therefore he nodded.

A joyful smiled emerged on Yaoyao’s face.

The smile was mixed with happiness, as well as a hint of shyness.

“Thank you, I’m so happy… Mhmm! Yaoyao will begin to work. Brother, you can go sleep, Yaoyao will be done soon.”

“Do you not need me to accompany you?” Jiang Chen rubbed her head.

“No, No need. That will be really boring…” Yaoyao said slightly embarrassed.

Jiang Chen didn’t insist.

He walked to the bed, looked at the pink sheets as he awkwardly scratched his head.

But when he thought about Yaoyao’s hopeful expression, Jiang Chen gulped and with trembling fingers slowly lifted up the sheet and lied down.

He nose was tingled by the faint aroma.

Although he couldn’t quite tell what the smell was, it smelt good.

Under the sheets, Jiang Chen could smell her pureness. It was an intoxicating feeling.

But this feeling didn’t manage to last long.

Because it was too comfortable, Jiang Chen’s began to lose his consciousness, he yawned before quickly falling asleep.

After typing up the last line of code, Yaoyao stretched her body. Then she timidly looked at the direction of the bed.

Thinking that her love was sleeping in her bed, an indescribable joy and timid feeling rose in her heart.

Yaoyao gulped as she put on her bunny slippers carefully and walked to the door to turn off the light. Then she sneaked to the side of the bed.

Her heart was beating fast as if it was going to jump out of her chest.

“Woo, fell asleep?” Seeing that Jiang Chen had already drifted to sleep, Yaoyao pouted her mouth in slight disappointment.

But for some reason, she felt relieved and more at ease.

It was a complex feeling.

Already hitting puberty, she desired the mysterious but forbidden kind of feeling. At the same time, she felt unsettled by the idea.

[Could it be that I am still not ready?]

Yaoyao didn’t understand her feeling.

With a hand on her chin, under the pristine moonlight, Yaoyao pouted her mouth as she carefully observed Jiang Chen’s face.

Listening to his rhythmic breathing, a sweet smile appeared on her face.

“Wooo, of course, let’s maintain our current state. Since brother already felt asleep…” She hummed to herself in a quiet voice before she sneaked into bed.

She pecked Jiang Chen’s lips as a soft smile emerged on Yaoyao’s face.

With this tiny bit of happiness, Yaoyao moved closer to his warm chest, adjusting herself to be in a comfortable position before closing her eyes.

Her breathing began to turn rhythmic and gentle.

Yaoyao’s crescent-shaped mouth revealed her happiness.
