CHAPTER 32: LEAH MISSION ACTIVATED

Luis placed the panties under his nose and inhaled deeply with intoxicated delight. Leah immediately blushed crimson, snatching the panties back and stuffing them into the bag as she scolded shyly, "Brother, don’t be such a pervert. Why are you sniffing my panties?"

"Next time, Brother will do something even more perverted~"

The younger sister giggled shyly and ran downstairs first, while Luis laughed heartily and followed after her.

When she sat on the chair and happily picked up the new, pretty sandals Luis had bought for her to put on, Luis suddenly grabbed them away.

"Brother will put them on for you!"

"Okay~ serve me well~"

With that, Luis sat cross legged on the floor, placing her delicate little feet on his lap. This time, Leah wasn’t flustered at all and even stretched out her other foot.

Her mind briefly wandered, and she suddenly blurted out as if possessed, "Brother, have you ever put shoes on for Second Sister before?"

As soon as the question left her mouth, her eyes widened slightly, filled with an indescribable sense of anticipation. She didn’t even know what she was expecting.

Luis froze for a moment upon hearing this, then shook his head. "Probably not. Your sister and I have conflicting schedules."

So this was the first time he’d ever put shoes on for a girl. Though she didn’t know why it made her happy, Leah felt her heart blossom with joy.

Luis held her small foot in his hand, and Leah giggled from the ticklish sensation. Her laughter was bright and charming. Though not deliberately coquettish, her doll like voice made one’s bones tingle slightly.

Under her surprised and bashful gaze, Luis kissed her fair foot before slowly slipping the new sandal onto it.

In the neighborhood, she felt a little shy, but in the taxi, Luis held her hand, and Leah smiled sweetly, appearing exceptionally docile.

Before she could say anything, her phone rang. As soon as she answered, a sweet, doll like voice came through:

"Ugh, Leah, when the hell are you buying a new phone? Whatsapp is right there, why do you have to call? Do you think phone credit is free?"

"I’ll get one soon. Why are you in such a hurry when I’m not even worried?"

As she spoke, Leah cautiously peeked at Luis, who looked utterly dumbfounded, which puzzled her.

"Anyway, my... Brother is with me right now."

Covering the phone, Leah turned back and asked somewhat sheepishly, "Brother, my best friend wants to hang out. Can we bring her along?"

"Ah, sure!"

Luis snapped out of his daze.

Leah cheered and immediately said into the phone, "Just take a taxi to Walmart. Later, my Brother will treat us to something delicious~"

"Brother is the best, I love you so much~"

"Avery is my closest friend~"

Leah was overjoyed, while Luis smiled gently. This time, instead of holding her hand, he wrapped an arm around her. Leah froze for a moment before shyly lowering her head and allowing her Brother to embrace her.

Meanwhile, Luis’s mind was in chaos, feeling as if his intelligence had been brutally challenged.

Despite his best efforts, the System hadn’t triggered any missions. But the moment Leah’s classmate called, the System’s cold voice suddenly echoed in his mind:

"Ding... Mission for the Girl with huge boobs younger sister activated. Mission for the Girl with huge boobs younger sister generating."

What the hell was this trigger condition? He’d been teasing her for two days with no reaction, so why did it activate the moment her classmate called?

And what did "generating" mean? How long would it take? Would it drag on forever?

Luis was feeling irritable now. It was like successfully arranging a hookup—while the idea was exciting, the waiting period was agonizing because you had no idea what would show up.

The midday sun was scorching. Inside the mall’s cold drink shop, Leah happily sipped her juice.

She suddenly spaced out, thinking that the watermelon juice at her school gate cost 0.6 dollars a cup, while this cherry juice was 5.8 dollars. This was way too extravagant. She’d never spend this much if she were out by herself.

As she thought this, she couldn’t help but sneak another glance.

Across from her, Luis was fiddling with his phone, his expression serious and focused. She didn’t dare disturb him, since Second Sister had mentioned that Brother never played games. He must be working.

The way he looked when concentrating on work was kinda handsome too...

Luis was staring intently at the screen because the System seemed displeased and was taunting him—or rather, tempting him.

The apps on his phone moved beyond his control, switching at a speed too fast for the blink of an eye. One unfamiliar app after another opened, giving Luis a true eye opener.

Blockchain mining profits, blockchain cryptocurrency contracts, stock markets from around the world, futures trading and betting contracts, foreign exchange data—it was all a dizzying spectacle.

There were also novel copyrights, scripts, film and television rights, and various patent incomes, most of which were in English and incomprehensible to Luis.

But without exception, all these accounts were registered under Luis’s name, thoroughly broadening his horizons.

"Dormant Bitcoin, dormant Ethereum, dormant stock accounts, dormant account balances."

"For various reasons, including death, over 5% of the total financial volume lies dormant, while nearly 10% of savings have been forgotten."

"Massive dormant capital can be activated at will without affecting the global monetary and financial totals."

"Even if another System were to arrive, it wouldn’t notice, let alone ordinary humans."

Reading the messages in the phone’s dialogue box, Luis realized the System was angry because he kept complaining about it.

After a moment’s thought, he typed into the dialogue box: "I can’t exactly kneel here, so let’s just say I was wrong, okay? But what’s up with the younger sister mission?"

"Ding... Mission for the Girl with huge boobs younger sister generating."

The System completely ignored him, leaving Luis utterly helpless.

This System was seriously tsundere. After showing off its capabilities, it went silent again. But amid the sea of code earlier, Luis had caught a glimpse of something.

There were too many diverse elements at play. It needed to collect and analyze big data—global big data—which was why it had been so sluggish.

"Brother, what’s wrong?"

Seeing Luis heave a deep sigh and finally put his phone down, Leah dared to ask.

Luis chuckled. "It’s nothing, just work stuff. Don’t worry about it."

"Brother, aren’t you going to drink anything?"

Leah asked, her face flushed.

After entering, they had ordered two cherry juices—one for her classmate—while Luis hadn’t bought anything and had just been sitting there on his phone.

Luis looked at her shy expression and continued teasing, "No, Brother isn’t used to drinking these. As long as you like it, baby~"

Leah suddenly felt dazed. She blended right in with the stylish, well dressed young people here, not standing out at all.

But Brother dressed so simply and plainly that it almost seemed out of place. Her mother had once said that Second Sister dressed just as frumpily as he did.

Back then, they said it was because they had no money, but now it was clear that wasn’t the issue. They just refused to spend on themselves.

He’d bought Mom and Second Sister bracelets worth thousands of dollars—the most expensive kind—and hadn’t batted an eye when taking her out to buy clothes and eat.

Yet he was so strict with himself. Leah’s gaze softened, and she suddenly reached out to hold Luis’s hand.

"Brother, I... I only have a little over 10 dollars left. Let me buy you some clothes later, okay?"

This caught Luis off guard. Seeing the affectionate look in his younger sister’s eyes and glancing at the people around them, he immediately understood her thoughts.

With a teasing grin, he asked, "Baby, do you think I’m too tacky?"
