The first meal proceeded peacefully without any surprises. The bowls and plates were taken care of by the household robot, so they didn’t have to worry about it.
Normally at this time, Jiang Miao had her own plans, whether it be entertainment, exercise, or reading materials and literature—she had planned to write a paper in the second half of the year.
However, now that a man suddenly appeared in the single woman’s house, Jiang Miao felt a bit at a loss.
“Um, well…” She didn’t know what two people should do in the evening.
“I’ll go back to my room then,” Yan He calmly suggested, offering a suitable option.
“Okay, okay. You rest well.” Jiang Miao thought for a moment and added, “If you want to explore the Capital Star Ring, I can arrange some time…”
“No need to delay your work,” Yan He politely said. “You continue as usual, and we can discuss it when you have time.”
“Well, let’s rest on the weekend. I’ll take you to some must-visit places, and, um, we can also try some good restaurants,” Jiang Miao said.
“Sounds good, looking forward to it,” Yan He replied. “Good night, Doctor.”
“Good night, Major.”
The two exchanged polite words, showing mutual respect. Jiang Miao thought to herself, maybe this is a good start?
That night, she didn’t use the multifunctional room or the gym, instead retreating to her own bedroom. While soaking in the bath, she pondered if there were any aspects she hadn’t considered thoroughly.
One advantage of advanced technology is that Jiang Miao doesn’t need to communicate with Yan He face-to-face; she just calls Xiaona.
“Xiaona, Xiaona, go and tell the Major that if he needs anything, he can feel free to contact you, and he shouldn’t be polite.”
“Okay,” Xiaona, equipped with the “thoughtful personality” upgrade package, said, “Leave it to me, don’t worry.”
In less than two minutes, Xiaona came back with a response. She directly played Yan He’s recorded reply: “No problem.”
No problem.
Just two words, not a word more.
Jiang Miao: “…”
“He really is a man of few words, isn’t he, Xiaona?” Being alone for a long time, Jiang Miao developed a habit of chatting with artificial intelligence.
With her snowy-white feet propped up at the other end of the bathtub, splashing the water a bit, Jiang Miao suddenly said, “Xiaona.”
Xiaona immediately responded, “I’m here.”
“Cough, well,” fortunately, Xiaona isn’t a real person, so Jiang Miao could say without shame, “analyze his voice, and copy the vocal pattern into my personal smart brain.”
“Okay, it’s already copied,” Xiaona said in a humanized manner, “The Major’s voice is even more pleasant than Weston Lee’s.”
Weston Lee is a popular singer, and Jiang Miao likes his sexy voice. Whenever she hears that voice, she feels an exhilarating excitement, making her exceptionally lively and energetic in whatever she does. That’s why she applied that voice to her office’s smart brain.
But now, she has found a voice that’s even more pleasant and sexy.
Not knowing what Yan He was up to that night, Jiang Miao even made sure to leave the multifunctional room and the gym empty for him.
Wrapped in a towel, she returned to the bedroom and asked, “Did he use them?”
“No,” Xiaona replied, “Major Yan did not come out again after returning to his room.”
And Yan He’s room activated a surveillance blocker, which Xiaona had reported to Jiang Miao before.
Jiang Miao also has such a blocker; she uses it when she travels for business to the company’s base. This is considered an essential portable facility for business trips. Jiang Miao’s blocker was handmade by herself, not a mass-market product, and it has stronger shielding capabilities.
All in all, today was not bad, right?
Lying in bed, Jiang Miao felt both uneasy and excited, slowly drifting off to sleep.
The next morning, the wake-up program featured the soothing sound of flowing water. Read this novel at g.com for the best experience.
The Capital Star is a planet almost entirely covered by buildings and technological products. Although there are a few large natural ecological preserves, truly natural areas are extremely rare. Living on such a planet, people prefer using the sounds of nature for their wake-up programs.
Jiang Miao’s first thought upon waking up was: Ah, it’s a new day.
Immediately followed by her second thought: There’s a man in my house, and he’s the future father of my child! We’re supposed to live together for a month to see if he’s satisfied with me or not! So, I should get up right away and make a good impression on him!
Jiang Miao sat up abruptly!
“Xiaona, is he awake?” Jiang Miao asked while washing up, “Did the flowers I ordered last night arrive? How’s breakfast coming along?”
Considering that Yan He is on vacation, she thought, wouldn’t he want to sleep in? Jiang Miao always enjoys sleeping in on her days off.
If he feels awkward about sleeping in someone else’s house, that’s fine too. After all, Jiang Miao wants him to open the door in the morning and walk into the dining room, where he can see fresh flowers covered in dew and a delicious breakfast.
This is to prove that she not only has high intelligence, is beautiful, and capable, but also that she is a very tasteful and sophisticated person who knows how to live life.
Xiaona directly woke Jiang Miao from her thoughts: “Major Yan got up an hour and 47 minutes ago.”
Jiang Miao: “…” Why would you get up so early on your day off!
Helplessly, Jiang Miao asked, “What is he doing now?”
“He’s exercising in the gym.”
The floor-to-ceiling glass is specially treated; not only can you not see inside from the outside, but it can also adjust the refraction of sunlight based on the time of day.
During the day, Jiang Miao set the refraction to a strong mode, making the sunlight coming in exceptionally bright.
Droplets of sweat on Yan He’s back muscles glistened, thanks to the artificial sunlight in military ships and space military bases. Military personnel spend long periods in enclosed spaces, but their skin doesn’t pale because of it.
Compared to Jiang Miao’s porcelain-smooth fair skin, Yan He’s skin is much darker, but just right for a man.
As the muscles in his arms and back moved rhythmically with his actions, sweat slid down the contours of his muscles, creating a shimmering effect on his wheat-colored skin in the morning light.
Early in the morning, Jiang Miao was hit by this intense wave of hormones, and she gripped the door frame so hard that she deformed the metal![1]
Child, look at the kind of dad I found for you!
No need to thank me; being filial is enough!
Yan He, who was doing push-ups, heard the noise and turned his head to look. He bent his knees and stood up.
Dr. Jiang, with a stiff and awkward posture, clung to the door frame, unsure whether to come in or run away.
“Good morning, Doctor,” Yan He nodded, as calm and composed as yesterday, sparing no words.
“Good morning, Major!” Dr. Jiang tried to imitate the Major’s indifference.
However, the young man with the amazing physique not only had his upper body exposed but also stood in the morning light, giving his slim waist a shiny edge. Although slender, it seemed to harbor unimaginable explosive power.
With a creak, Jiang Miao broke off a piece of the door frame![2]
The air suddenly fell silent.
The four gazes of the two people converged on the deformed piece of metal in Jiang Miao’s hand.
The situation became extremely awkward for a moment, but Dr. Jiang was, after all, a highly intelligent and genetically superior individual.
After a silence of half a minute, Dr. Jiang raised the piece of metal and said, “See, just like this.”
“I just wanted to remind you, people like us who were born and raised on high-gravity planets need to be careful on standard-gravity planets, or we’ll end up causing damage everywhere.” Jiang Miao tossed the piece of metal in her hand and casually threw it aside, saying nonchalantly, “I don’t even know how many doors I’ve broken. Xiaona, call maintenance to come and replace the door frame for me later.”
Xiaona: “Sure, I’ve got it covered.”
Even though it took only a few days to adapt to standard gravity during her first departure from a high-gravity planet, and she hadn’t caused much damage since. Read the latest chapters at g.com.
Yan He replied politely, “Thank you, I’ll careful…”
“Don’t mention it!” Dr. Jiang said with a restrained manner.
I managed to cover it up!
My emotional intelligence is as high as my intelligence!
“Have you had breakf… Ah!!!” Before she could finish saying “breakfast,” Jiang Miao, who had taken a step into the gym, suddenly felt her body sink. Caught off guard, her knees almost couldn’t support her, and she nearly knelt on the ground. Fortunately, she steadied herself in time.
Jiang Miao straightened her back with effort and stood upright, asking, “How many times the gravity field did you set?”
“Three times,” Yan He said, observing Jiang Miao’s efforts to make herself appear “standing effortlessly,” looking pensive.
Well, he had mentioned yesterday that he needed at least four times the gravity field. The words “at least” indicated that he could adapt to even higher multiples of gravity. With her gravity field generator, it was only natural to set it to the highest multiple!
Feeling a bit regretful, Jiang Miao commanded, “Xiaona, deactivate the gravity field.”
The gravity field gradually opened and closed. Both Jiang Miao and Yan He felt their bodies slowly becoming lighter, and after a few dozen seconds, they felt as light as swallows.
“I’ll take this set to the company first, and you can use it when I bring it back tonight.” Jiang Miao directed the robots to dismantle the gravity field generators from the four corners and pack them into a small suitcase.
After finishing the task, she turned back to continue the unfinished question: “Um, have you had breakfast?”
“Not yet. I’ve already placed an order with AI, it should arrive in about…” Yan He glanced at the time displayed on the wall screen, “ten minutes. I’ll go take a shower first.”
“Alright, you go ahead,” Jiang Miao asked, “Is the body wash and shampoo okay? If you don’t like them, I have several other fragrances here to choose from.”
“No need, they’re all fine,” Yan He politely replied.
Since he arrived yesterday, for all the questions like “Is xxx okay?” that Jiang Miao asked, the answer was always “fine.”
Jiang Miao gave up on expecting any different answers from Yan He and said, “See you in the dining room.”
Yan He showered very quickly, probably just a few minutes.
When he arrived at the dining room, his hair is still slightly damp. He was neither too early nor too late, precisely ten minutes later.
Although Jiang Miao has a uniform fetish and only drools over photos and videos, never having interacted with a real military person, she guessed that this punctuality concept was probably cultivated in the military.
The square dining table wasn’t large because, for the most part, it was only meant for one person.
But it was covered with a cozy floral tablecloth, a glass vase in the middle with a few white and translucent flowers in clear water. Next to the table was a delicate girl, just like these flowers, arranging dishes from a food processor.
She was dressed professionally, with bright eyes, a smile on her lips, and humming an unknown song. She seemed exceptionally satisfied with life, full of anticipation for the new day.
Yan He’s footsteps paused slightly, and his gaze lingered for a moment on Jiang Miao’s radiant face.
