Chapter 137: Strange Girl.
Yun looked at both Haru and Mei for a few minutes before walking away in defeat. Mei got up with anger and walked over to the door and then looked down the corridor.
"At least close the door on your way out!" She shouted at Yun before sitting down next to Haru once again. Like nothing had happened. He figured by Mei's reaction that the house being filled with was a regular occurrence so he too went straight back to the conversation they were having before the interruption.
"My dad mentioned something about you having a little sister also? How is that? Is she as annoying as Yun is? Sometimes I can't stand her.
"Not at all. She is just a few months old and I haven't really spent much time with her so I can't judge that." Haru laughed and then pulled out his phone to show a few pictures of Saki to her.
"Awe she is so cute. I just want to squeeze her little cheeks. Do you know if Auntie Krista will be coming to visit you here? If she does then you have to tell me about it. Okay?" Mei laughed a little as she looked at the pictures of her baby cousin.
A few minutes of Idle chatter went by before the door opened once more.
"I will give you both ten minutes to get ready. We are going out for dinner to celebrate Haru going to university." Nadia stood in the hallway and said with a forced smile on her face.
"Are you sure it's not because you burnt dinner again?" Mei asked with a smile. She knew the answer but just wanted to run it in.
Nadia didn't reply to the question and then looked over to Haru.

"Haru. What kind of food do you like? You can choose tonight." She asked while ignoring her daughter's giggling.
"I don't know? I will eat basically anything." Haru smiled. He didn't want the chance to annoy someone by picking something they didn't like so he stayed quiet.
In the end, the decision was passed on to Yun. She had the choice to eat whatever she wanted so she picked the fanciest and most expensive place in the city. It wasn't like they couldn't afford it but Haru still felt bad. He didn't like people to spend money on him.
It was hard for him to accept gifts from people but now he felt like refusing to go there at all but he knew he couldn't refuse now. Andrew was the type of man who wouldn't take no for an answer. He was too proud and it would be like spitting in his face if he had already promised something.
They arrived at the restaurant in one of Andrews car. It was a five-seat sedan so it was a bit of a squeeze to fit three adults into the back seats. But somehow they managed to, with Haru being squashed against the door by Mei who was sat in the middle.
Yun, on the other hand, complained when Mei got too close to her so Haru made some space despite not having much himself just to shut yo her constant whining
They all picked what they wanted to eat and then talked well they waited for their food. The whole experience was foreign yo Haru. He was being treated like royalty by the staff and even people at other tables started to notice the special treatment they were receiving so he made it a point to ask Andrew about it.

It turned out that he invested heavily into the restaurant when they first opened up and actually owned a twelve per cent share in it. The restaurant soon became one of the best in the city and people from all over came just to eat there. But even so, the owner made sure that they treated his family with respect every time they ate there.
Their meals would all be free to go along with the favour that Andrew gave them all those years before. After finding out that his food was free he felt better about leaving the decision to Yun and then ordered as much food as he could handle.
By the time Haru had stopped eating everyone at the table had begun to wonder just where he was putting the food. His stomach didn��t seem to bloat but that was due to him returning to origin already. His metabolism would break down food as soon as it entered his stomach since it wasn't needed for his body to survive. It was them turned in to Qi.
Although not much. He would need to eat tonnes of food to even equal five minutes of cultivating but it was useful since he enjoyed the taste of food. He would never have to worry about his weight.
After finishing all of the food they headed back to Andrews house. It was already dark by the time that they left but that was to be expected since winter was right around the corner. Snow had already begun to fall in Shenzhen but a bit of sun remained in Shanghai.
Haru was shown to his room by Andrew as they got back and then he heard a knock on his door. It was Yun. She opened the door after waiting for the go-ahead and then stood in the doorway.
"Can I help you with something?" Haru asked as her silhouette cast a shadow at the foot of his bed.
���I just came to apologise to you. I didn't know that you were actually who you said you were and I wanted to get back at Mei for snooping through my room." Yun said and then cast her head down in shame.
"You came all the way to my room to apologise? Don't you think that is a little too much?" Haru asked. He was weirded out by the whole situation as he lay in bed half-naked with his cousin looking at him.
"Yeah. I just didn't want you to think that I'm a bitch or anything so I came to clear up my misunderstanding. Well, goodnight." She said casually and then closed the door and walked away.
Haru lay there confused for a moment.
"What a strange girl…" Haru thought before laying back down and going to sleep.

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.
