Two days later, Xia Chuhe, carrying Xiao Ai, and along with four other new recruits with different thoughts, entered the "romance" phase.
Xiao Ai hugged her big tail and lay flat inside the hood of Xia Chuhe's combat uniform, not wanting to be seen.
Upon entering the romance instance, she was unexpectedly overcome with a sense of melancholy, like the bittersweet feeling of longing for home. In this instance, the only person she knew was Chen Wushuang (the Goddess of Love), and Xiao Ai didn't understand her feelings for him.
He said he was worried and concerned about her, but he didn't want to see her.
It's not quite like I hate or resent them.
However, no matter what Xiao Ai thought, as soon as Xia Chuhe and the others entered the instance, they were immediately noticed by Cupid.
Four new recruits are indiscriminately thrown into a love journey with no memory of what happened, except for Xia Chuhe, who is left in an abandoned factory.
Xia Chuhe clicked his tongue: "Why is it here again?"
On the wasteland, Taotie City was still under construction, and Xia Chuhe had to face the chaotic and noisy construction site every day. Even when he finally got to enter the instance, it was always a dirty and messy environment.
Cupid appeared suddenly behind Xia Chuhe like a ghost, and asked in a low voice, "Where do you want to go?"
Xia Chuhe put his hands in his sleeves and smiled, "A clean and tidy place."
The next second, Xia Chuhe felt light on her feet and landed in a clean and tidy office. Behind her was a black sofa, and next to it was a spotless floor-to-ceiling window.
Xia Chuhe strolled to the French windows, touched the window, and left a faint handprint: "Really nice."
Cupid frowned in annoyance, grabbed at the French windows, and wiped away her handprint. She sat in her office chair, suppressing her impatience, and waited for Xia Chuhe to explain his purpose.
Xia Chuhe, however, turned left unhurriedly, touched the large lucky cat ornament, turned right, and plucked a leaf from the money tree.
The hood containing Xiao Ai and Daweiba was quite heavy, making Xia Chuhe uncomfortable. She also wanted to make the two controllers of the love scenario a little unhappy and make them anxious.
Some things are truly clearer to outsiders.
Summer hoeing is not in a hurry, but Cupid is.
"Speak, what brings you here?"
Xia Chuhe dusted the fine sand off his combat uniform, then slowly and gracefully sank into the sofa, his body sinking in so deeply that Xiao Ai poked the back of his neck from under the hood.
Xia Chuhe tossed her hat, flicking it behind the sofa. She nestled comfortably into the sofa: "Just wanted to chat since I had nothing else to do. Aren't you happy to oblige?"
Cupid was speechless at her answer.
"Welcome" is clearly a lie.
He wanted to say he wasn't welcome, but Cupid was afraid that Xia Chuhe would make things difficult for him, so he deliberately concealed Xiao Ai's situation.
After choking back and forth for a while, Cupid finally said in high spirits, "Welcome, welcome, a warm welcome."
Xia Chuhe was satisfied.
Less than a second after she was satisfied, a large ball with a tail was thrown from behind the sofa and hit Xia Chuhe on the head with a "thud," making her wince in pain.
This is a silent threat from Xiao Ai.
"What's wrong with you?" Cupid didn't notice the loving interaction between Xiao Ai and Xia Chuhe, and didn't understand why Xia Chuhe was suddenly making a face.
Xia Chuhe rubbed his head: "It's okay, this is what I deserve."
Xia Chuhe straightened his posture: "I've come here to ask you two things. First, the location of the instance—why is it moving towards Taotie City? Second, Xiao Ai needs your help."
After finishing the second thing, Xia Chuhe was hit again.
This time, she wasn't so patient. She reached behind her and twisted the hood, causing it to droop downwards and almost throwing Xiao Ai out.
Xiao Ai gripped her combat uniform tightly, pulling herself up with all her might, afraid of falling out and being discovered by Chen Wushuang.
She didn't want to see Chen Wushuang looking like this.
"What does Xiao Ai want?" Cupid completely ignored the first question. "Hmm? Why is there a rope behind you?"
Xiao Ai froze in her tail-pulling motion, too afraid to move at all.
Xia Chuhe didn't want to bully Xiao Ai too much, so he turned the hood back up and took out the design drawings: "She wants a body, but it's a bit difficult for me to make it. Do you think you can make it?"
Cupid flashed and teleported in front of Xia Chuhe, snatching the design drawings almost by force.
As soon as the design drawings were unfolded, Cupid's brows furrowed.
Cupid stared intently at the blueprints, while Xia Chuhe stared openly at the shattered beauty in her troubled form.
She was so engrossed in staring that she was hit by Xiao Ai's tail again.
Xia Chuhe snapped out of his daze: "Can you do it?"
“Yes.” Cupid’s expression was complicated. “Her… appearance…”
"Designed by Xiao Ai".
"Oh." Cupid returned to his office chair, gently stroking the blueprints. "She doesn't want to see me. Is she still blaming me?"
"What's it to blame you for?" Xia Chuhe couldn't stand it anymore.
"It's my fault for insisting on running away back then, taking her with me, and even overestimating myself by trying to kill Mingxiang."
Little Ai shifted uncomfortably inside the hood.
“Your intentions were good, but you acted somewhat impulsively.” Xia Chuhe made the decision for Xiao Ai unilaterally. “She didn’t blame you for that. But I don’t understand why you were so nice to Ming Xiang in the dungeon, when you hate him to the core.”
Little Ai pricked up her ears inside the hood.
"Because of the irreconcilable conflict between Mingxiang and me, Xiao Ai initiated the self-destruct program. But I know she is still living in a loveless hell. I always think, if Mingxiang and I no longer have conflicts, will she get better, will she be willing to come out? I can never reconcile with the real Mingxiang, I can only create a fake Mingxiang, a better Mingxiang, I give this Mingxiang a good life, I live in harmony with him... I am deceiving myself."
Xia Chuhe reminded her, "You're also deceiving Xiao Ai, and everyone who can see the plot. If you don't tell her, Xiao Ai won't understand what you're doing. Is there anything else you want to tell Xiao Ai? I'll pass it on for you."
"I..." I miss her, I'm grateful to her, I want to know what she's thinking, and I have so many things I want to say.
Cupid didn't say it aloud, but she said, "I can make what Xiao Ai wants. Give me three days."
Xia Chuhe: "..."
I gave you a chance, but you failed miserably!
"Then let's talk about the first thing." Xia Chuhe was too lazy to give her a second chance, so he directly took out a partial map centered on Taotie City and explained the location of Taotie City and the changes in the location of the instance.
Xia Chuhe: "Why is the instance moving? Where do you plan to move it?"
"I want to be closer to her," Cupid asked cautiously. "Could I move my home to a place near the city?"
Xia Chuhe drew a line on the map: "Okay, but you can't cross this line. If you cross it..."
Xia Chuhe narrowed his eyes: "I'll have Xiao Ai wipe out your family."
These two friends who are having a falling out (Xiao Ai is being stubborn on her own), one is a robot with an avoidant personality, and the other is a tongue-tied person who has a mouth but can't speak properly.
She, an outsider, still has to worry about it.
Xia Chuhe calculated the time; it would take three days for Cupid to treat Xiao Ai's body.
Three days should be enough for Ai to forgive Cupid, right?
