Chapter 109: I Want To Do As I Please (11)
After gathering information from multiple sources, Jiang Zhiyan confirmed that Yu Qici’s mentor wasn’t aware of her disappearance yet. Currently, only the Yu family and Ruilin Group knew, and the news was tightly suppressed, there was nothing online or circulating within their circles.
Honestly, she didn’t understand their reason for suppressing the news, was there something else about Yu Qici she didn’t know? She had read the plot related to Yu Qici many times, and there didn’t seem to be any other issues.
“So what are they worried about?” Jiang Zhiyan leaned back in her chair, lost in thought.
Early the next morning, Jiang Zhiyan had the System contact Yu Qici’s mentor, who agreed without any hesitation, stating that Yu Qici could use an android to return to work at any time.
“Are they that short-staffed?” the System commented.
“Or maybe she guessed something happened to Yu Qici,” Jiang Zhiyan said. Yu Qici was her star student, after spending so much time together, she knew Yu Qici very well, she would probably see through the excuse the Yu family made up for her absence.
Jiang Zhiyan found Yu Qici by the lake again. She was holding a book they bought from the bookstore yesterday. Jiang Zhiyan initially thought it was a professional book, but upon closer inspection, she realized it was The Omega is in a Chase-Your-Wife Crematorium Again.
“You know, this book is quite interesting,” Yu Qici said without looking up when she heard Jiang Zhiyan’s footsteps. “But it doesn’t seem very relevant to our situation.”
“You can go back to work.”
“Huh?” Yu Qici was stunned for two seconds, looking up at Jiang Zhiyan. “So soon?”
“Yes, so soon, but I don’t really want you to leave, so, practice multitasking recently.”
Yu Qici: ???
“You should know what my research is about.”
“I do, but I’m not a good person,” Jiang Zhiyan said, lowering her head and kissing Yu Qici’s forehead.
Yu Qici: …
Jiang Zhiyan gave Yu Qici a set of equipment that connected to her brain, allowing her to remotely control an android. After practicing, there would be no difference between using the android and her own body. Jiang Zhiyan would have her connect to the android prepared in District 6.
“But if that’s the case, you’ll know everything I do and say with my mentor?” Yu Qici asked, resting her chin on her hand.
“Mm,” Jiang Zhiyan replied.
Yu Qici frowned.
“Honestly, I’m not interested in your research at all,” Jiang Zhiyan said, looking at Yu Qici, her gaze sincere, her words infuriating. “It’s mainly to prevent you from calling for help.”
Yu Qici looked at Jiang Zhiyan expressionlessly, snorted softly, and started practicing. This wasn’t difficult for her, and she quickly got the hang of it, but Jiang Zhiyan kept distracting her, there was another recliner beside them, but she insisted on squeezing onto the same chair.
Jiang Zhiyan kissed her cheek, then intertwined their fingers, and the android, which had been walking perfectly fine, suddenly stumbled.
“Stop messing around!”
“No,” Jiang Zhiyan said, putting her leg over Yu Qici’s and looking at her.
Yu Qici took a deep breath, closed her eyes again, and tried to ignore Jiang Zhiyan, but the android’s movements were still clumsy, sometimes randomly twisting its waist or raising its arm.
She finally couldn’t help but swat at Jiang Zhiyan, who, unexpectedly, flipped over and lay on top of her.
Yu Qici opened her eyes and looked at her helplessly: “What are you doing?”
“Testing your reflexes.”
Yu Qici: ???
Yu Qici, looking at Jiang Zhiyan’s sincere gaze, pinched her waist, and Jiang Zhiyan buried her face in her neck.
“And this?”
“Training your resistance to interference,” Jiang Zhiyan said.
Yu Qici was so exasperated by this absurd answer that she laughed: “There are only two of us here, as long as you don’t interfere with me, I won’t be interfered with.”
“But I can’t control myself, and don’t forget, you’re currently living under my roof, so you should be the one controlling yourself,” Jiang Zhiyan said, kissing Yu Qici’s neck. “I’m even letting you go to work…”
Yu Qici had only said that casually, wanting to find an opportunity to send out a distress signal, but judging from the current situation, it was highly unlikely she could, she couldn’t find any weakness in Jiang Zhiyan.
This kind of treatment was enough to imprison even the Alliance President.
Yu Qici leaned against Jiang Zhiyan’s head: “But you’re still keeping me locked up.”
“You won’t be locked up once you’re lucid,” Jiang Zhiyan nibbled on Yu Qici’s ear.
Yu Qici looked into Jiang Zhiyan’s eyes: “Then I’ll work hard.”
“Mm.”
“Then get off me first.”
“No,” Jiang Zhiyan thought for two seconds, sat up, and then pulled Yu Qici into her arms. “Let’s do this instead, that position wasn’t very comfortable.”
Yu Qici patted Jiang Zhiyan’s hand on her waist, but Jiang Zhiyan didn’t move. She sighed softly and didn’t say anything more.
Forget it, as long as she didn’t move around randomly, she would let her be.
Jiang Zhiyan didn’t move around randomly, but it was impossible for her not to cause trouble.
Yu Qici smelled pheromones, she didn’t know if it was because they were too close, but the scent invaded her soul, unsettling her.
While she was dazed, she had already collapsed against Jiang Zhiyan. Yu Qici struggled to regain her composure and looked at Jiang Zhiyan with dissatisfaction.
Jiang Zhiyan lowered her head and bit Yu Qici’s lips. The pain didn’t bring Yu Qici back to her senses, but instead, she fell into the abyss of desire.
The system had already run away, before leaving, it made sure no one could see them.
It returned to the lab and looked at the mech being manufactured, suddenly feeling a bit sad, this kind of thing had nothing to do with it, it was just an auxiliary system, why did it have to do the Host’s work? And the Host herself was as lazy as a salted fish.
The System looked at the long list of tasks Jiang Zhiyan had assigned it and felt a bit annoyed. It wanted to chat with Jiang Zhiyan’s AI assistant, but the AI completely ignored it.
The System felt like it and the AI weren’t even the same species.
…
Jiang Zhiyan held Yu Qici’s waist, her fingers gently tracing the skin on her back.
“Do you prefer the basement or the lakeside?”
Yu Qici didn’t answer. She yawned and languidly tugged at the blanket that had fallen on the floor. After a moment, she said: “I want an undisturbed room as a workshop.”
“Rejected.”
Yu Qici grumbled and lightly kicked Jiang Zhiyan’s leg, but without much force, it was more like a coquettish nudge than an expression of dissatisfaction.
“I also have things to do. I won’t disturb you at work tomorrow,” Jiang Zhiyan nuzzled Yu Qici’s face.
“Just tomorrow?” Yu Qici raised an eyebrow. She noticed Jiang Zhiyan was fond of this gesture. It reminded her of a small, wild cat at school that liked to rub against her.
“Yes,” Jiang Zhiyan nodded.
“Major points deduction,” Yu Qici said, a hint of amusement in her voice.
“Deduct all you want, even negative points are fine.”
“Where are you going tomorrow?” Yu Qici asked. “Does it have anything to do with the Jiang family?”
Jiang Zhiyan looked into Yu Qici’s eyes: “It’s a Jiang family matter, but it has nothing to do with me… the company is a mess right now, and everyone’s relationships are strained. No one cares how many people have died. They’re probably just glad there’s less competition.”
“Your Jiang family is truly chaotic.”
“My Jiang and their Jiang are not related. I’ve started my own family,” Jiang Zhiyan said, hooking her little finger with Yu Qici’s. “It’s something else. Jiang Chen and those five who died were colluding with space pirates.”
“Huh?” Yu Qici thought she had misheard and looked shocked. “What did you say?”
Jiang Zhiyan, looking at Yu Qici, smiled slightly: “Just as you heard. I’m planning to blame their deaths on him, make him the scapegoat. I’ve already gathered some evidence and will soon send it to Jiang Chen’s nemesis in the Jiang family.”
“If everything goes according to plan, we’ll soon see them turn on each other. It’ll be even more interesting if other people are involved.” Jiang Zhiyan would design a suitable plot for Jiang Chen, so she wouldn’t have to kill him herself. Colluding with space pirates and causing so many deaths, there was a fitting place for him.
“Are there many people in the alliance colluding with space pirates?” Yu Qici frowned.
“I don’t know. It has nothing to do with me,” Jiang Zhiyan looked at Yu Qici. “But probably quite a few, you should know the answer yourself.”
Yu Qici sighed softly: “I have a feeling things are about to become very chaotic.”
She glanced at Jiang Zhiyan: “You’re also one of the instigators.”
“Given the current situation in the alliance, chaos is inevitable,” Jiang Zhiyan yawned. “Let’s go back to the room and sleep.”
Yu Qici pushed Jiang Zhiyan’s arm: “I’ll sleep here, you can go to the other chair.”
“No!” Jiang Zhiyan hugged Yu Qici tightly. “How can you push me away at a time like this? You’re the one who started it, and now you’re abandoning me.”
Yu Qici: ?
“I want to take a shower,” Yu Qici said.
“Then I’ll carry you.”
“Clothes! Clothes!” Yu Qici exclaimed.
Although there was no one else here, walking through the garden like this was too much. Yu Qici realized Jiang Zhiyan sometimes truly lacked a normal person’s sense of shame.
…
The next morning, Yu Qici was woken up by the housekeeping robot at six. It took her a few seconds to remember she had to go to work.
She rubbed her temples and glanced at the space beside her. Jiang Zhiyan wasn’t there.
“Where is she?”
“Master slept in the next room last night,” the robot replied.
Yu Qici: ???
She suspected Jiang Zhiyan did that on purpose, so she wouldn’t be woken up by the alarm too, even though she loved clinging to her.
She should be happy about this, but for some reason, she felt annoyed.
After washing up, Yu Qici went to knock on Jiang Zhiyan’s door, her footsteps heavy, but when she opened the door, Jiang Zhiyan wasn’t there.
“Master has already left,” the robot behind her said.
Yu Qici was taken aback and felt a pang of guilt.
So Jiang Zhiyan didn’t sleep with her because she didn’t want to wake her up?
