Chapter 381: Chapter 381 Can you put on your clothes?
Seeing Nan Qiao get upset, Li Yehan’s tone softened considerably, coaxing her with a hint of persuasion: “Qiaoqiao, why don’t you return it? I really don’t want it to be in your room.”
“Li Yehan, it’s just a robot! You’re making an issue out of nothing!” Nan Qiao ended the video call.
As she hung up, Nan Qiao muttered to herself: “Li Yehan really is just making trouble for no reason!”
Robot No. 1 chid in alongside Nan Qiao, “Master, you’re absolutely right. That man is just being unreasonable. Master, I suggest you consider getting a new boyfriend.”
Nan Qiao: ??
“How do you know he’s my boyfriend?”
Robot No. 1 replied, “The way he looks at you is not normal. Based on my knowledge, this is what humans call ‘lecherous.'”
Nan Qiao: “…”
“What are you talking about? His gaze looks perfectly normal to .” Suddenly, Nan Qiao felt that Robot No. 1 might have so issues.
Robot No. 1’s chanical voice sounded again: “My sensory perception is impeccable.”
“Get out. Go find soplace quiet to stay.”
“Yes, Master.” Robot No. 1 walked out.
It wandered to the garden. The place was peaceful, incredibly quiet.
…
Late at night, Li Yehan climbed over the wall to enter.
As he passed by the garden and spotted Robot No. 1, he walked over.
“Aren’t you supposed to protect your master, Qiaoqiao? Why are you here?” Li Yehan asked in a low voice.
Robot No. 1 replied, “Master told to find a quiet place to stay. It’s all because of you.”
Bai Jingyan had programd Robot No. 1 to recognize Li Yehan’s face, so Robot No. 1 knew exactly who he was.
Li Yehan whispered, “I know an even quieter place. How about I take you there?”
“Alright. Thank you.”
Li Yehan led Robot No. 1 away.
…
The next morning, Bai Jingyan got up and called out for Robot No. 1, but couldn’t find it anywhere.
When Nan Qiao woke up and ca downstairs, she heard Bai Jingyan’s voice.
“Sis, have you seen Robot No. 1?”
“No, last night, I told it to find sowhere quiet to hang out, and then I went to sleep.”
Bai Jingyan froze, dumbfounded. Robot No. 1 was gone?
“You can’t find it?” Nan Qiao was also surprised.
Bai Jingyan said, “I’m going to the monitoring room to check.”
He reviewed the surveillance footage but found no trace of Robot No. 1.
Li Yehan always tampered with the Bai Family’s surveillance system every ti he entered, to avoid being caught. So Bai Jingyan couldn’t track who had taken Robot No. 1; he could only see that its last known location was the garden.
Although Bai Jingyan failed to locate Robot No. 1, Nan Qiao began to suspect soone.
“Second Brother, I’ll go out and look for it too. Don’t worry, we’ll definitely find Robot No. 1.”
Nan Qiao rode her electric scooter out and arrived at Li Yehan’s ho.
Entering the passcode, she walked in effortlessly.
Li Yehan was working out, flaunting his pronounced eight-pack abs and the alluring V-line of his waist.
His upper body was bare, muscles perfectly toned, a visual feast for the eyes.
“Li Yehan, where’s Robot No. 1? Did you take it away?”
Li Yehan turned around and removed his boxing gloves.
“Why do you suspect ?” Li Yehan smiled as he approached Nan Qiao.
Beads of sweat dripped from his forehead down the curve of his cheekbones, landing on his collarbone, then trailing further down, exuding pure magnetism.
Nan Qiao shifted her gaze awkwardly away from the sight.
With a body like that, she had to try hard to resist her wandering eyes.
“Li Yehan, is Robot No. 1 here with you? Where did you put it?” Nan Qiao’s tone wasn’t accusatory—it was certain.
She was convinced Li Yehan had taken Robot No. 1!
Li Yehan wiped his sweat with a towel. “Qiaoqiao, let take a shower first. Wait a bit.”
Nan Qiao: “…”
As she tried to follow up with more questions, Li Yehan had already entered the bathroom.
Hearing the sound of running water, Nan Qiao could only sit in the hallway waiting for him.
When she glanced at the bathroom, she couldn’t help but mutter that Li Yehan was a bit of a weirdo. Who has a semi-transparent bathroom door?
Unable to sit still, she moved to the sofa but remained restless, then eventually walked outside.
In the yard, Li Yehan had planted a plethora of roses. He’d even built a swing.
Nan Qiao sat on the swing, waiting for him to finish his shower.
After a while, when Li Yehan didn’t appear, Nan Qiao turned and saw him drinking water instead.
Frustrated with the wait, she barged back inside.
“Li Yehan! I’m asking you where Robot No. 1 is! That was a gift from my Second Brother, and you took it away without saying anything. He’s frantic!”
“I thought you’d be the one anxious to find it, but it turns out you’re not.”
Li Yehan walked over and sat right across from Nan Qiao.
Nan Qiao: “…”
“Li Yehan, can you put on a shirt? If we’re going to talk, let’s just talk. Why keep your chest exposed?”
“It’s too hot,” Li Yehan replied.
Nan Qiao stood up. “Li Yehan, take to find the robot—now! I need to go back. My Second Brother is still at ho, and I don’t want to see him so stressed out. This is all your fault!”
Li Yehan stood as well, moving so close to her that she could sll the cool, refreshing scent of his skin.
His honey-toned complexion and strong physique were superior even to the seniors from her martial arts school.
Li Yehan leaned in, locking eyes with her mischievously. “Do you like my body?”
Nan Qiao blurted out, “Yes.”
Realizing what she’d just said, her face flushed crimson as she shoved him away.
Li Yehan grabbed her small hand and placed it on his chest. “Well, then… do you want to touch it?”
Nan Qiao: “…”
“Li Yehan, take to find the robot right now. I’m seriously angry!”
Seeing her serious expression, Li Yehan sighed and finally relented. “Alright, I’ll take you there.”
As they walked, Li Yehan smirked and added, “It said it wanted a cool place to stay, so I simply gave it a hand.”
Nan Qiao: “…”
She was at a loss for words.
As they walked further, sothing felt off to Nan Qiao.
“Li Yehan, isn’t this where your walk-in freezer is?” she exclaid in shock. “Oh my god, don’t tell you put it in the fridge!”
Li Yehan chuckled. “That’s why you’re my Qiaoqiao. So clever.”
Nan Qiao: “…”
“Li Yehan, are you insane? I told you it was a gift from my Second Brother, and yet you stuck Robot No. 1 in the freezer? Are you nuts?”
“I’m not crazy. It’s just that Bai Jingyan’s robot isn’t very impressive—which ans Bai Jingyan isn’t impressive either.”
Nan Qiao couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the sa ti. “Li Yehan, are you trying to piss my Second Brother off?”
“Of course not. I’m just offering him so constructive feedback.”
Li Yehan opened the freezer door, and Nan Qiao stepped inside. Robot No. 1 had already been frozen solid.
Seeing this, Nan Qiao had no idea how to explain it to Bai Jingyan.
“If my Second Brother finds out you froze Robot No. 1, he’ll definitely co after you.”
Nan Qiao could already imagine Bai Jingyan’s reaction upon seeing his precious robot turned into a block of ice. He’d surely want to kill Li Yehan.
