Chapter 915 - 934: I Think I’m Just an Old Pervert

Mo Si’s cooking skills were indeed quite good. The two enjoyed a pleasant lunch together before Little President Qian sent a message, saying he was preparing for a joint online meeting. He wanted Qiuqiu to touch base with the people from the Sixth Legion in a brief meeting.

Since Qiuqiu also wanted to produce more food data to store up, the two headed over to her courtyard home.

Mo Si kept hovering around Qiuqiu. He was much clingier than usual.

He was clingy to a fault, making Qiuqiu unable to resist teasing him. "Are you an O.P.? I never thought you were this clingy with me before."

"What does O.P. mean?"

She rested her chin on his shoulder. "It stands for ’old pervert.’"

Her warm breath brushed against his ear, ticklish and warm...

This caught Mo Si, who had been about to retort, completely off guard. He pulled Qiuqiu straight into his arms and kissed her on the cheek, but it wasn’t enough.

He felt a little panicked.

Was this what they meant by giving an inch and taking a mile? In the past, just getting a kiss would have made him perfectly happy. But today—it wasn’t enough.

"I think I might be."

"Huh?"

"What should I do?"

"What do you mean, what should you do?" Qiuqiu felt this conversation was coming out of nowhere.

Then, Mo Si delivered a line straight out of the mouth of every overbearing CEO in romance novels: "The self-control I am so proud of seems to lose its effect in front of you."

Jiang Qiuqiu couldn’t help but laugh. "You’re so cute."

"That phrase doesn’t stir my heart anymore, either." In the past, being praised like this would have made him a little happy.

"Oh?" Qiuqiu clicked her tongue. "Has Little Panda Mo undergone an earth-shattering transformation after just one night? If that phrase doesn’t stir your heart, then what can make it flutter again?"

"Can I say it?"

"Go ahead, I want to know."

The man glanced around. After confirming that there were no hidden soldiers nearby, he whispered to Qiuqiu, "You are amazing."

"What do you mean I’m amazing? How am I—"

Wait a minute?

The smile on Qiuqiu’s face suddenly vanished. A bizarre memory flooded her mind, and those words—"You are amazing"—looped infinitely in her head, complete with background music!

Face flushed red, Jiang Qiuqiu marched ahead, giving Mo Si a thorough scolding.

Fortunately, this distracting atmosphere dissipated quite a bit once they got down to business. Otherwise, neither of them would have been in the mood to do any actual work.

They both had things to do. Mo Si went to the living room sofa to review documents, while Qiuqiu stayed near the kitchen to communicate with Little President Qian and Mo Xin.

They said it was to discuss cooperation, but in reality, the deal was already struck. Qiuqiu had agreed, and Mo Xin had agreed as well. The Level 10 Mechanical Brain was already on its way. Fearing they wouldn’t know how to operate it, the Military Department had even dispatched a supporting expert.

Since New Star no longer needed to source a brain themselves, they took out their entire budget originally meant for the purchase overnight. They began aggressively recruiting and poaching talent from all over, preparing to throw money at building a technical department with sky-high specs.

"Is this Miss Jiang Qiuqiu?"

"Yes, speaking."

"It is a pleasure to connect with you. I am Mo Xin, Vice Commander of the Sixth Army." Mo Xin gave a brief introduction, then went over the contract between the two parties. "The main point to note is that our supply quantities must be sufficient."

"No problem. Do you need a larger quantity?" If they did, she could provide a bit more.

"Hmm... not at the moment, but we might discuss this again in the future. For any subsequent increase in numbers, we will provide a certain amount of subsidies."

They conducted their business in strict adherence to military regulations.

"The second point is that you must guarantee your standard of quality. You cannot cut corners; we need to be able to sense the spiritual power within the data."

"I can do that."

"Then there isn’t really anything else... Oh, right, if possible, I would like some actual physical food. Not much, just fifty portions a month would do."

Although the other party was upping the ante, to be honest, the conditions weren’t excessive. Plus, it was the Sixth Army. Qiuqiu agreed to practically everything.

Her straightforwardness actually made Mo Xin feel a little embarrassed. "As a token of gratitude, if any problems or malfunctions occur while using the mechanical brain, we can troubleshoot them for you free of charge."

The matter was settled, and all three parties were satisfied.

Being able to swap in the mechanical brain meant that New Star was about to usher in a brand-new era. Upgrading their arsenal like this gave Qian Xingxing a premonition—he was finally going to have the strength to compete.
