“Older sister?”
Ethan was a little surprised.
He had lived here for two years and didn’t know Nina Vale actually had a younger sister!
And even though he only saw her back, he could clearly tell that this younger sister must be a great beauty!
“Wendy!
How long have I been out?
Look at this mess you’ve made of the house again!”
“If this keeps up, I’ll have to send you back to school!”
Nina Vale said, hands on her hips, angrily.
“I say, Sis, it’s just a little messy, what’s with your fuss?”
Wendy Vale turned her head, and Ethan immediately saw a beautiful face that was seven parts similar to Nina Vale’s!
However, in comparison, Wendy Vale was younger and more full of youthful vitality.
If Nina Vale was the mature, “older sister” type, exuding spiciness all over, then Wendy Vale was the typical girl next door, the pure and innocent
“school flower” sitting at the same desk!
“Sis, who is he?”
The first thing Wendy Vale did when she turned her head was to lock onto Ethan.
Her eyebrows instantly shot up, like the expression of a husky, scrutinizing Ethan warily.
“Ethan is our tenant.
He moved in when Mom was still here!”
“He’s pretty good at repairs, so I asked him to take a look at that broken laptop for us!” Nina Vale introduced.
“Sis, you’re too thrifty!”
“And that laptop has been broken for two years, ever since I spilled a cup of cola on it.
Even the repair shop said they couldn’t do anything about it.
Is it even useful to ask him?” Wendy Vale pouted.
“You have the nerve to say that!”
Nina Vale rolled her eyes, adopting the posture of an elder sister who was like a mother.
“What are you still standing there for?
Go pour our guest a glass of water!”
“Oh!”
Wendy Vale reluctantly glared at Ethan, then left the sofa.

Ethan shook his head helplessly.
Women, ah…
“I’ve looked at it, and indeed, some parts of the motherboard are burned out, preventing it from turning on.”
Ethan quickly disassembled and inspected it, concluding, “However, the critical parts of the motherboard are not damaged.
I estimate the repair shop deliberately exaggerated, wanting you to buy a new motherboard from them, which is why they said it couldn’t be repaired.”
“You mean…
it can be fixed?”
Nina Vale’s beautiful eyes lit up.
“If it were anyone else, it really wouldn’t work.
After all, most repair personnel only understand the surface, not the principles of the motherboard…
I just happen to know a little.
For me, it’s a small problem!” Ethan said.
“That’s great!
Ethan, come, come, have some water!”
Upon hearing this, Nina Vale’s eyes curved into crescent moons with a smile.
“Hmph, it’s just fixing a broken laptop, isn’t it?
Look how proud you are!”
Wendy Vale, still engrossed in her Honor of Kings game on her phone, rolled her eyes.
“If you’re so good, then you fix it!” Nina Vale glared at her sister.
Soon, Ethan, with incredibly skilled movements and extremely fluid operations, quickly fixed the laptop’s motherboard.
“Ethan, you’re repairing this laptop as if you’re creating a work of art!
Your movements are so fluid!” Nina Vale couldn’t help but exclaim.
Wendy Vale also had a slight change of opinion about Ethan now…
Ethan’s repair work was indeed seamless, without the slightest hindrance, even more precise than a robot.
What they initially found incredibly complex and tedious, they had somehow watched from beginning to end!
And a repair that should have taken a long time was completely resolved by Ethan in just ten minutes!
“Practice makes perfect!”
“Alright, it’s done!”
Ethan pressed the power button, and as the whirring of the fan emanated, the laptop screen, which had been dark for two years, lit up once more!
“Wow, Ethan, your repair skills are truly amazing!
You could even open a repair shop!” Nina Vale praised involuntarily.
“I’ve even repaired spaceships; what’s this?!” Ethan grinned proudly.
“Spaceships, indeed!”
Wendy Vale rolled her eyes again at Ethan’s “exaggerated comparison.”
Little did she know, Ethan had indeed repaired spaceships, and the most awesome kind at that!
“Ethan, since you’re so capable, if any of our home appliances break down in the future, could we ask you to help us fix them?”
Nina Vale’s big eyes fluttered as she looked at Ethan, with a hint of coquetry in her voice.
Ethan was also quite speechless.
This was no longer just being thrifty; it was being stingy to a certain extent!
But there was nothing he could do.
Who could blame him when the person asking him was beautiful and sweet-voiced, and also his landlady?
He might as well help!
“Sure, no problem!”
Ethan nodded and stood up.
“Landlady, I’ll be going now!”
“Mhm, okay!”
Ethan left, and Nina Vale returned to her laptop, operating it back and forth.
“Wow, why does it feel like opening web pages is faster than before?
I really misjudged Ethan; he actually has such amazing repair skills!”
“Sis, do you have his WeChat?” Wendy Vale suddenly asked from beside her.
“Yeah, what about it?” Nina Vale glanced at her sister.
“Nothing, just to add him on WeChat.
If any appliances break down in the future, we can ask him to help fix them again!”
Wendy Vale said nonchalantly, “And Sis, haven’t you noticed?
His demeanor seems different from ordinary people…
I just feel like he’s exceptionally mysterious!”
“His demeanor is different from before, but there’s nothing mysterious about it; he’s just a tenant!”
Nina Vale’s attention was still on her laptop and she didn’t notice the flicker of interest that had surged deep in Wendy Vale’s eyes…
She was starting to get a little interested in Ethan.
who possessed a mysterious demeanor!
Ethan, of course, didn’t know that his inadvertently revealed superior aura had attracted the attention of a young girl.
At this moment, he had just returned to his rented room and was sitting in front of his computer.
Looking at this second-hand laptop he had bought cheaply from a colleague a year ago, Ethan’s heart swelled with emotion, his gaze fervent!
“JARVIS, old friend, we’re about to meet again!”
The first thing he wanted to do was to “resurrect” this old friend, who had accompanied him the longest and was his most capable assistant, back into the home universe!
With JARVIS, many things in the future would be easy for him to handle.
At the very least, when it came to acquiring a certain amount of money, it could be done effortlessly!
Ethan opened the software programming interface.
All the encoding information about JARVIS instantly appeared in his mind.
His hands began to move.
Like a dancing butterfly, Ethan’s hand speed was fast, very fast!
So fast that the code on the screen was appearing at a rate of dozens per second…
If someone were watching at this moment, they probably wouldn’t be able to read as fast as Ethan typed!
