Chapter 111 Chapter 111 Who can refuse a hand reaching out for a hug...

The strange white tiger was a little confused as to why there was such a little thing here.

He moved a little closer, wanting to lower his head and sniff.

But the little cub's pupils widened, and this time it wasn't just the ear hair that exploded.

It puffed up into a ball.

But other than that, it didn't react in any other way.

I just opened my eyes wide and looked at it.

On the other side, little Nuoxing in the house got up, gathered the stars, and looked outside.

Under the watchful eyes of his father and fourth uncle, the little guy's ear hair began to stand up skillfully.

This scene is really funny every time I see it.

How could a little baby have such a cold face but be furious inside?

If it weren't for his ancestral little ears, you really wouldn't be able to tell his emotional fluctuations.

The two adults who were still present first glanced at each other, and then Pei Hanxi looked at Pei Ming next to him.

Pei Ming shuddered.

"It has nothing to do with me. I didn't provoke him. I didn't even touch him!"

——This kind of thing can't possibly have anything to do with him, so don't try to beat me up for no reason!

Accustomed to being beaten, Pei Ming is simply a large mobile rejection machine. When he has done nothing wrong, his body is covered with "Prevention of Accidental Injury Statement".

Outside the house, Ah Da had already beaten Ah Si and came back. When he saw the strange big white tiger, there was a hint of vigilance in his eyes, and he jumped to the front of the little white tiger.

The whole process takes no more than a minute.

Two white tigers of almost the same size faced each other in silence. The patterns on their bodies were very similar, but with subtle differences.

The little white tiger Tuanzi smelled a familiar scent, his fur standing on end, and he silently buried himself in Ada's fur.

Ah Da: “Roar——”

Go away!

Didn’t you see that it scared the cub?

The strange white tiger paced a few times in a slightly anxious manner, its eyes fixed on the little white ball lying in Ah Da's arms.

Hearing Ah Da's cry, the little white ball let out a small, childish howl.

Because I just got rubbed.

The strange white tiger still had the scent of the little white ball, including that furry and soft touch.

It lowered its head and sniffed, then looked at the furry ball protected by Ah Da. In the end, it had to give in because Ah Da was there, and Ah Si had also pounced on it, trying to hold it down.

It flicked its tail and quickly turned around and left.

Pei Hanxi, who was inside the house, picked up the little cub.

"Is the third brother around here?"

"Eighty percent."

Pei Ming also looked outside.

"He's in a bad condition. I'll go check on him first. Is it possible that his mental domain collapsed and they didn't hold him down, allowing him to escape?"

Both of them acted indifferent and indifferent about this matter.

For the Pei royal family, this was a common occurrence, as they had experienced it themselves.

Pei Ming stood up.

"Also, although I don't know exactly what he learned in the lab, he understands things like literacy and communication very well."

They didn't know how he was treated in the laboratory, but overall, apart from being a bit naughty, slow to react, and not getting the love and care he deserved as a cub, this little guy was indeed a worry-free cub in every way.

But as the saying goes, when there is someone or something that particularly suits your taste, you should be wary.

Because this is most likely a conspiracy against you.

"Let's take another good look at it."

Pei Ming said.

"The main thing is to avoid being indoctrinated with any bad ideas."

This little robot Z, who has been communicating with Butler Zhang, has a lot to say.

He had just finished communicating with the butler.

z felt that he was probably assimilated by the little guy.

There is a mental state that if you can live today, then live today, and if you are going to die tomorrow, then die tomorrow.

Since you are not allowed to connect to the Internet, then don’t connect.

It’s also pretty good. There’s no need to do massive calculations. Just be a small robot lying flat - hey, it seems not bad.

At least staying here seems much safer than wandering outside!

And I also found a long-term meal ticket - a special charging port.

There are also thighs to hug.

Oh, there probably isn't any other AI in this world that can live so comfortably, right?

It is such a pleasant experience to make peace with myself.

z felt it.

z: [What ideas can be instilled? ]

z: [At least no test subjects woke up before they evacuated.]

z: [I don’t know how he woke up, and he scared me.]

Even if you want to brainwash someone or determine their values, you have to make the subject conscious first.

As an abandoned small intelligent computer, Z is itself an operating intelligent computer with a more powerful program pressing on it. He cannot access the core data, so when the laboratory personnel evacuated, he was regarded as an abandoned bait. Even if he was completely dismantled and discarded, no problem would be found.

The discarded test products in the laboratory, including Noxing, actually have the same function as him.

It’s just that the current Noxing is different from the Noxing back then.

If this was the situation with Noxing at the time, those guys would definitely take little Noxing away even if they had to make other sacrifices.

But that's what the White Tiger Royal Family is worried about.

z thinks it is really redundant.

The very appearance of this little guy is magical.

Two adults can see the font on the screen clearly.

He raised his eyebrows in slight surprise.

In fact, many things about this little guy seem strange and unnatural.

It’s no wonder that their first reaction when they came into contact with this little guy was - does the other party have some conspiracy against the White Tiger Royal Family?

But subsequent evidence has proven that this is not the case.

It's just that the little guy is a little sensitive and likes to play tricks. Everyone tacitly investigates behind the scenes and doesn't really say anything to this five or six-year-old kid.

The big white tiger outside was driven away.

The little white tiger was escorted by two tigers behind him as he walked into the house.

When he reached the threshold, he had to stretch out his paws to grab it.

Ah Si was now particularly attentive and had mastered the strength. He exerted a little force from behind the little white tiger and pushed the little white tiger up with his head.

The little white tiger kicked its hind legs, climbed up the stairs, and then ran towards Nuo Xing, howling.

After a while, the little white tiger curled up beside the lying little Nuoxing.

A cub and a tiger, lying down happily.

Pei Hanxi and Pei Ming stood by silently and watched.

Pei Ming was originally quite serious.

He first looked at the state of his own spiritual body, which was a little broken, and then looked at the lying little cub and the little white tiger.

The most annoying thing was that the two of them lay flat on their backs with their eyes open, their stomachs turned over, their heads tilted back, and their big round amber eyes staring at them.

Pei Ming lost his seriousness for a moment.

"I'll find a teacher later—and the child of the Finance Minister of the Golden Leopard family will also come over later."

Pei Hanxi looked down at the cub and said.

“…Actually, I feel like what I said isn’t very useful.”

Pei Ming looked at the decadent little Sanghu and was stuck again.

I feel like this depressed little guy probably doesn't have that many things in his head.

Pei Ming began to doubt his life.

Ah Si was much more direct than him, and used his head to hit the little white tiger's head again and again.

Now he is obviously a little more familiar with Xiao Nuoxing.

Or perhaps Nuo Xing is a little more familiar with Pei Ming.

Even though you didn't get Xiao Nuo Star in exchange for that star, you are awesome.

But it more or less added points to his image and status in Xiao Nuoxing's heart.

Nuo Xing had hardly ever met so many people in the laboratory before, and even if he did, he would classify them as strangers.

It was here that Nuo Xing had categories such as father and grandmother.

They are relatives.

Although the little guy is not so easy to accept other people by nature.

But at least he didn't get angry behind my back.

This is already a welcome progress for Ah Si.

Especially when the little white tiger rubbed against Ah Si, it opened its little paws and hugged Ah Si's head.

A babyish cry.

Ah Si, who was about to leave but shamelessly tried to stay for a while: ...

Ah, the tiger is dying.

Tiger is so cute.

Pei Ming's words suddenly stopped, and his mind stopped thinking. He stared at the little white tiger holding Ah Si's head.

Although the pain in the mental realm still persists and is obvious.

But it is undeniable that the soft touch of the chubby cub, including its smell and the soft purring sound it makes after being held in the arms - all give the elders in the family a feeling of comfort and security.

It was another comfortable feeling besides the collapse of the spiritual realm.

Pei Ming had always told Pei Hanxi to just give him Xiaonuoxing. In fact, he was dissatisfied with this guy's words that the country would be handed over to them in the future, and planned to end the matter himself.

Until now, Pei Ming has not been able to get over that hurdle.

But at this moment.

He was still reluctant to leave.

Follow Ah Si and look back every few steps.

"Brother, I'll come back at noon."

Pei Hanxi watched the people walk away, then lowered his head to look at the little cub lying flat on the ground.

He still held the small pile of stars.

Blinking and looking at him.

"If you can't figure out what grandma asked, don't think about it for now."

Pei Hanxi was still thinking about what the doctor said the night before.

The little guy's mental state is not optimistic.

Pei Hanxi touched the little guy's head.

I originally wanted to let this little guy find toys to play with by himself here.

But looking at the little guy like this.

If you let him play by himself, he'll probably just lie here all day.

Being motionless is really bad for children's development and growth.

Pei Hanxi thought carefully and pinched the little cub's face.

"Do you want to go to a meeting with Dad and look over the documents?"

Noxing tilted his head.

The little guy's meaning was very clear - he wanted to lie down.

"No, you need to move around."

Obviously, when the father and son communicate, Pei Hanxi is always the one who talks more.

The little cub climbed up reluctantly and held the parent's hand under the parent's encouraging gaze. The little white tiger also shook his little head lazily, shook the fur on his body, and followed closely behind.

Noxing looked at the little robot that was communicating with the butler.

z was still gesturing to Butler Zhang.

Butler Zhang half-knelt, looking at his screen and nodding from time to time.

After a moment, he clapped his hands.

"Okay, I understand."

Then Z turned around and waved his small robotic arm at Xiao Nuoxing.

z: [I have something to do here. I'll tell you when you come back.]

Noxing thought about it.

Very sincere.

"Do you want to download the latest edition of the complete collection of jokes?"

z: [? ]

Z: [Oh my god! You finally came to your senses! Do you want to hear it? I have it right now—]

Noxing: ...

"No, I don't want to."

Little Nuoxing held his father's hand and didn't look back this time, leaving Z with only the back of his round head.

*

at the same time.

The atmosphere at the home of Finance Minister Cheng Ying was also very subtle.

"Send Xiaoquan to the palace this afternoon?"

Opposite Chengying, there was a beautiful woman sitting opposite, holding a teacup with a slightly frown on her face.

"Isn't that a bit too positive?"

"Your Majesty wants to find a playmate for the young prince. Because of his special status, he must look for one among us. Among the imperial ministers, Xiaoquan is the most suitable age. The others are either too old to get along, or too young to make any distinctions."

Cheng Ying thought and spoke.

"Chengquan has a down-to-earth personality and is very skillful. Compared to the other little orcs, he's much more obedient. I think it's okay to let him watch over that little guy and scout out the other families."

"Why--"

Cheng Ying's wife sighed deeply.

"I'm naturally happy that the royal family can inherit this, but I can't really say where it came from. I'll go give Xiaoquan some instructions. He'll go this afternoon, and I'll have his sister pick him up in the evening. Chengshuang's judgment is a bit better than Xiaoquan's."

"It's okay, you don't have to worry too much."

Cheng Ying comforted her.

"Your Majesty never does anything without confidence, and never lets his cubs do anything dangerous."

After saying this, the woman nodded slightly, feeling relieved.

"You're right."

"There will be a meeting later. I will submit the report to His Majesty shortly."

*

On the other side, His Majesty, who came to work with his little cub, received countless people's attention as soon as he entered the door.

The office area is also inside the palace, but in the front hall, closest to the palace gate.

Most of the country's affairs are handled here, and various state departments are also located here.

Pei Hanxi had arranged everything before he left.

These departments will continue to operate normally after he leaves until one of the four is selected to take over.

In fact, the succession work went smoothly.

However, it is precisely because of this situation that the Second Prince is always in a hurry to go on field work in Shengbei, the Third Prince's mental condition is getting worse, the Fourth Prince is always acting weird and aggressive towards whoever he meets, and the Fifth Prince is even more ruthless. Originally a cold and indifferent girl, she took over the mission in the border city before His Majesty returned just to avoid this situation, and she won't be back for a while.

So the entire operating system of the empire was happy that His Majesty had returned.

Although His Majesty brought back a little cub, the cub's origins are still unknown.

However, the matter of the cub was obviously not mentioned to the public, and there were only some rumors about Pei Hanxi outside.

The ministers and important personnel had already received news of this matter from the royal family, and they knew early on that Nuo Xing's identity had been registered under Pei Hanxi's name.

Although I still feel a little worried.

But when they actually saw their Majesty coming here with a little kid, they were all surprised.

The little guy has the standard appearance of a royal family.

He has a delicate little face with a little chubby skin, silver-white hair, and amber eyes. But maybe it's because of his identity, he doesn't have the liveliness and activity of other little orcs. His amber eyes are very calm, looking forward quietly.

There is also a pair of white tiger ears that have returned to their original form, probably because it is not used to so many people's attention.

He walked calmly, and his little ears looked particularly fluffy.

The spirit body also appeared. The little white tiger took two steps and then bit the tail of Ada who was following Pei Hanxi. It looked at the people around it vigilantly and refused to move, and was dragged by Ada's tail.

Pei Hanxi glanced back.

Ah Da exerted a little force with his tail and threw the little white tiger onto his back.

The little furry ball fell onto the white tiger's back and lay there motionless.

A little too cute.

"ah--"

Someone who saw this scene let out a small cry, then fell silent in an instant.

Nuo Xing just turned his head and looked at the little white tiger lying on the back of the big white tiger. He stopped and looked up at his father who was much taller than him.

Pei Hanxi has been taking care of the little guy's steps.

Noticing that the little guy had stopped, he also looked down at him.

Looking at the little guy's ears that were quietly standing up again, Pei Hanxi actually wanted to laugh.

He looked at Ada behind him again.

"dad."

The little guy spoke slowly, staring at him as if he was thinking.

"What's wrong?"

Pei Hanxi lowered his head and asked softly.

Actually, I know what this little guy wants to do.

I just don't want to leave.

Seeing that the little white tiger had A Da's back, he also wanted it.

But whether it is to walk a few more steps or let him say a few more words, the parents who have just had a baby are very enthusiastic.

So the cub had a silent standoff with its parents.

Two pairs of similar eyes looked at each other.

The people around who were originally busy slowed down their pace without knowing when, and looked over quietly one by one.

——Is this the little prince in the laboratory?

——Even though it’s a man-made product created by the polluters… isn’t it a little too cute?

—Oh, he even has little ears!! His spirit form is still a little white tiger!!! No, is anyone brave enough to take a video? I really want to go back and watch it over and over again!!

——But what's the purpose of this? It feels very strange...

—I’m just a little cub. Even though I wasn’t born in a palace, I’m still a little cub!! I’m a cute cub, don’t be mean to me!!

In these delicate moments, their emotions changed very quickly.

The main reason is that Nuo Xing is still a cub, and a white tiger cub that everyone can't help but like. Before I saw him, I was still wary of him. But when I really saw him, I couldn't see any trace of dislike in his big, decadent and lazy eyes.

Just when someone finally couldn't help but step forward and say something.

Nuo Xing paused for a moment, looked at the big and small white tigers behind him, and finally reached out his hand.

"hug."

Pei Hanxi: ...

Noxing: ...

Pei Hanxi: "...Why is it so difficult to ask you to take two more steps?"

He sighed, and finally couldn't help but bend down and pick up the little cub.

The little cub was finally satisfied after being held.

He buried his little head in his father's arms.

Quiet and honest.

I act as if I have hidden myself and everything in the outside world has nothing to do with me.

What kind of self-deception is this?

That’s a bit too much!!!

The subjects who had just thought that His Majesty was a little too harsh on the little prince watched Pei Hanxi holding the cub in one hand, while Ada behind him carried the little white tiger, and they stepped into the elevator.

That expressionless face, even when holding the baby, gives people a sense of gentleness.

"…Is it my imagination?"

"It seems that Your Majesty is just helpless."

"I feel like I don't know how to get the little prince to take a few more steps."

They looked at each other.

"It must be an illusion, right?"

"It must be an illusion!"

Your Majesty is so powerful, how could he be so helpless because of a cub?

The icy parent, completely helpless about his little tiger's death, carried the cub upstairs.

"Your Majesty, the meeting arrangements have been completed, and snacks for the little prince have also been prepared—"

The secretary has never seen Xiao Nuoxing.

He looked at the little ball that Pei Hanxi was holding and subconsciously fell silent.

"Yeah, I understand."

Pei Hanxi's silver-white hair drooped on the top of the little cub's head.

The little guy's head was furry. Even though he heard the sound, he didn't have the curiosity of a cub. He buried his head in his arms and ignored it without even raising his head.

The secretary looked several times but couldn't see Nuo Xing's appearance clearly.

But the person has already been carried in by His Majesty.

The secretary stared for a long while, let out a sigh of regret, took out his communicator, and gossiped in the small group.

"Has anyone seen the young prince's face? Urgent! Urgent! Urgent!"

"I saw it, it's so cute! ! ! ! "

"You can't take photos or videos, His Majesty is always by the little prince's side."

And the conference room.

All the ministers were ready and were waiting for Pei Hanxi to arrive and start today's meeting.

Although His Majesty was not late today, he was much later than usual.

Everyone is guessing the reason.

Suddenly, I saw His Majesty holding something and floating past the screen.

Ministers from each city:? ? ?

But he quickly backtracked.

She was holding a cub in her arms and looking at them.

"Wait a moment, I'll put Noxing down."

"...Okay, okay, Your Majesty."

Wait for Pei Hanxi to leave the screen again.

Several ministers looked at each other.

"What's going on?"

They lowered their voices.

"That was... the little prince?"

"Isn't she too young? Five or six? She looks even younger than that."

"Besides, which orc kid still needs to be held by his parents at this age—"

"So—"

Finally someone reacted.

"The last time Your Majesty inquired about this matter, was he simply asking us how to increase the Little Prince's activity level?"

As soon as these words were spoken.

The ministers looked at each other and suddenly became as quiet as chickens.

After putting the cub down, finding some toys for children's enlightenment, and letting Ada look after the cub, Pei Hanxi finally returned to the video conference.

"alright."

Pei Hanxi waited for their report.

The ministers also became serious, and the video conference ended after about two hours.

Pei Hanxi's expression became more subtle, and he raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows.

"Your Majesty? Are you feeling unwell?"

"Your Majesty, is there anything that worries you?"

"no."

Pei Hanxi finally spoke again, looking towards the room where he kept the cubs.

"How can there be such a cub?"

Um?

"He doesn't like to move, but he's so good. Just staring at you with his eyes open makes you feel soft. He doesn't like to talk either, and he'll just lie down and sleep whenever he gets the chance. Now he's fallen asleep again buried in my spiritual body. I followed your advice and wanted him to exercise more, but after just a few steps, he reaches out for a hug."

I just can't bear not to hug him, okay?

"Is there any solution?"

The indifferent Majesty asked again.

This time, the ministers finally understood what His Majesty meant. They looked at each other, and their expressions became subtle.

They thought of their own little orcs who were the same age and were naughty and jumping around, and knew they were causing trouble.

Look at His Majesty's sincere expression again, and think about little Nuo Xing who was just held in his arms and clung tightly to his father and refused to let go.

Although the lively and cheerful little orc jumping around is very energetic, it makes people feel at ease.

But no one can refuse a beautiful baby who wants to hug you, right?

Who can have such treatment?

Finally, the ministers were dazzled: ...
