As it turns out, some people who are so stubborn they can't even utter a word can't come up with anything nice even if you give them three days.
After a brief discussion about business with Xia Chuhe, Cupid immediately took the design drawings to the R&D department to personally oversee the creation of Xiao Ai's new body.
Xia Chuhe lingered in front of her, but was ruthlessly pushed away in less than half a minute.
"Get out of here, I need to work."
Xia Chuhe: "..."
Okay, I'm leaving. Don't regret it.
With nothing to do, Xia Chuhe found a restaurant, ordered a bunch of food and drinks, and listened to Xiao Ai relay the situation of the new recruits who had entered the dungeon with her.
The next day, Xia Chuhe decided to give Cupid another chance to prove himself.
She went to the company to find Cupid, only to be told, "The chairman is busy with very important matters and is not receiving visitors in the near future."
Even after learning Xia Chuhe's identity, the receptionist still did not make an exception. She simply informed her of the progress in manufacturing the new body—the design drawings had been improved and perfected, and the technical difficulties had been completely overcome.
Xia Chuhe didn't make things difficult for the receptionist and tactfully left, once again repeating another day of doing nothing.
On the third day, Cupid invited Xia Chuhe to come and examine Xiao Ai's new body together.
The new body has a more angular face, but its features are gentle, vaguely resembling the body Xiao Ai once owned.
Cupid has already dressed this body. Although the specific design is not clear, just by looking at the strong limbs and powerful waist, one can tell that each part must be something that will satisfy Ai.
but……
"This height?" Xia Chuhe pointed to the robot, which was only a few fingers taller than him. "Isn't it too much of a difference?"
Xiao Ai wants to be 1.9 meters tall, but the robot in front of her is at most 1.7 meters tall.
Xiao Ai, who had been eavesdropping from inside the hood, quietly peeked out from under Xia Chuhe's shoulder to look at her new body.
The moment Xiao Ai saw her new body, she was furious; the little robot was both angry and aggrieved. If the little robot had a tear gland-like device inside, she would surely be crying her eyes out right now.
After holding back for three days without seeing Chen Wushuang, Xiao Ai finally couldn't take it anymore.
Xiao Ai jumped onto Xia Chuhe's shoulder and loudly accused Chen Wushuang: "This is not what I wanted! You are deliberately taking revenge!"
In this romance storyline, she has half of it, and naturally, Xiao Ai has half of it in the company! Why should Chen Wushuang get everything, even cutting corners when it comes to helping out with small tasks?
Cupid seemed not to hear Xiao Ai's accusations, sweeping away the little robot with a shovel, her broken face becoming much more lively. She cradled Xiao Ai in her hands, her entire arm incredibly stiff, unsure how to exert any strength. If she held her too tightly, she feared Xiao Ai would struggle; if she held her too loosely, she feared Xiao Ai would fall from her grasp.
"Xiao Ai, you are Xiao Ai, right?"
Xiao Ai, holding the tail ball, smacked Cupid hard. Faced with her new, long-awaited body, she could no longer care about her awkwardness: "Never mind who I am, explain to me what's with this height?! Wasn't it 1.9 meters on the design drawings? Are you blind?"
No, it's not what you see.
Cupid stammered as he explained, hurriedly fiddling with the waist and legs of his new body.
The new body, which was only 1.7 meters tall just now, seemed to have been injected with growth factors and quickly grew at least 20 centimeters taller.
Cupid: "While height can increase strength to some extent, excessive height reduces flexibility. After considering both flexibility and strength, I made improvements to allow for free extension and retraction."
Cupid carefully observed Ai's expression: "Do you like it?"
Unfortunately, a mechanical face cannot express a wide range of emotions. Xiao Ai said expressionlessly, "I like it, thank you."
"Shall I remove your chip and put it into your new body?" Cupid pleaded.
Xiao Ai glanced at Xia Chuhe, who was comfortably sprawled on the sofa: "Oh no, Lord Xia, come and help me change the chip."
"It's too comfortable, I don't want to move." Xia Chuhe refused. "Hey, Xiao Ai's chip is in the tail ball."
Cupid finally got the hint and stopped asking questions. With lightning speed, she took the chip out of the tail ball and put it into the new body she had prepared for Xiao Ai.
The eyes of the goddess of love were filled with a benevolent light. Every inch of this body was personally supervised and crafted by her, which was practically equivalent to her creating a new body for Xiao Ai.
Just thinking about it makes Cupid tremble with excitement.
Installing the chip is the crucial step in the entire process.
In the still, unwavering mechanical eyeball, a sudden glint of light appeared, and Xiao Ai came back to life.
Xiao Ai spreads her arms, clenchs her fists, and exerts force.
Every joint in the new body is exceptionally flexible.
Xiao Ai sensed the abnormality in her legs and waist, and with a casual control, the two retractable parts immediately changed, retracting back into a 1.7-meter-tall robot.
Now that she had normal height and vision, Xiao Ai couldn't help but raise her hand to touch Chen Wushuang's shattered face: "You clearly have the ability to heal your wounds, so why?"
“I don’t like this face; it brings me misfortune.”
Xiao Ai lowered her hand: "What brings you misfortune is not your appearance, but the people who try to harm you."
Xiao Ai pulled Xia Chuhe up from the sofa: "We've finished our work, we should go."
"Wait a minute, you haven't told me about today's battle yet!" Xia Chuhe was still eager to hear the love stories of those four new recruits.
Xiao Ai: "We'll talk about it on the way."
The moment Xiao Ai touched the doorknob, Chen Wushuang asked, "Don't you want to stay? This is your home."
Xiao Ai didn't turn around: "I moved. I like my new home more now."
Aside from her friendship with Chen Wushuang, there was nothing here that she would want to stay.
