Lu Manman was panicking. She hoped he just wanted to get rid of her. After all, he wasn't short of money, and she would be free once he dumped her.
And so, after a long internal struggle, Qi Xiuyuan carried her out of the warehouse in a princess carry and placed her on a soft sofa.
She sat on this sofa this morning eating grapes; the fragrance of grapes still seems to linger on it.
Before Lu Manman could react, Qi Xiuyuan began pinching and squeezing her body. Once again, Lu Manman, with her strong willpower, resisted the urge to kick him away.
Don't act impulsively, impulsiveness is the devil, impulsiveness will get you sliced to pieces.
"Huh, is it broken?"
A pleasant male voice entered her ears, and Lu Manman instantly understood his intention.
You should have said so earlier. If you'd told me to wake up, I would have. What's with all this pinching and squeezing?
Lu Manman carefully recalled the companion robots she had seen online, trying her best not to give herself away. After mentally preparing herself, she suddenly opened her eyes.
Her eyes mechanically turned to Qi Xiuyuan, then she sat up, flashed a sweet smile, and said in a sweet voice, "Hello, Master! Nice to meet you."
Lu Manman smiled sweetly on the surface, but was terrified inside.
Qi Xiuyuan stared at Lu Manman, scrutinizing her from head to toe with a blank expression. He had to admit, the kid's taste was pretty good; the robot's appearance was indeed exceptionally superior, more beautiful than any woman he had ever seen before.
But the most important thing is "as long as it's not broken."
Ah, that's it?
What should be done next? Lu Manman looked at Qi Xiuyuan with a sweet smile, while Qi Xiuyuan stared at Lu Manman expressionlessly, and the air seemed to quiet down.
As time went on, Lu Manman couldn't take it anymore. Maintaining the same posture and expression for a long time made her feel uncomfortable all over. She regretted not having read more about companion robots and didn't know what to do next.
This was Qi Xiuyuan's first encounter with a companion robot, and it wasn't quite what he had imagined. Looking at her slightly twitching facial features, Qi Xiuyuan found it amazing. "Are you feeling very uncomfortable right now?"
Lu Manman took the opportunity to stretch her legs, feeling as if she had been reborn. "No, Master, is there anything I can do for you?"
Instead of answering, Qi Xiuyuan asked, "What functions do you have? Tell me about them."
Functionality? I really don't know, but can the robot not answer? Of course not, "It has many functions; it should have everything you want."
Qi Xiuyuan nodded in satisfaction. His comrade standing next to him suddenly felt a sense of crisis and looked at Lu Manman with a more probing gaze. Would it steal his personal robot's position?
Qi Xiuyuan pointed to a room and said, "The kitchen is here. Cook me a meal."
"Yes, Master."
Lu Manman agreed readily, but when she looked in the direction the finger was pointing, she didn't realize that it was the kitchen.
Fortunately, Qi Xiuyuan turned and left. Lu Manman breathed a sigh of relief, forced herself to remain calm and walked forward, looking around. Finally, she found Yuanyuan in a corner.
At this moment, Yuanyuan was looking at Lu Manman with envy. Lu Manman quietly beckoned with her finger, and Yuanyuan, seeing that her master had already entered the door, rushed over.
"Huahua, what's wrong?"
Lu Manman whispered, "Come on, take me to the kitchen."
Following Yuanyuan into the kitchen, Lu Manman was dumbfounded when she saw the empty house. Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice.
"Yuanyuan, there's nothing here, how are we going to cook?"
Yuanyuan was a little puzzled. Did Huahua not even know about instant refrigerators? She raised her hand and pressed an inconspicuous button. Suddenly, a section of the wall became transparent, and she could clearly see that it was divided into compartments. Neatly placed in the compartments were some vegetables, some unknown meat, and some things that looked like seasonings.
Lu Manman stared in disbelief. "What is this?"
"A time-lapse refrigerator! Everything inside stays exactly as it was when it was first put in, and it never spoils..."
With Yuanyuan's explanation, Lu Manman learned that the transparent wall was the refrigerator door, and each compartment had a corresponding button. Pressing the button would pop out the compartment, allowing her to store or retrieve items.
They also introduced several self-heating pots in the cabinet next to them, with a display screen next to them, so you can adjust the function and heat level as needed.
Lu Manman wanted to know more, but her comrade came in and asked, "Huahua, is dinner ready?"
Lu Manman instantly transformed from a curious child into a confident robot, "Not yet, please wait a moment."
"Hmm!" After her comrade finished speaking, he didn't seem to be leaving, so Lu Manman had no choice but to bite the bullet and start showing off her cooking skills.
Fortunately, what I just learned is enough to cook myself a meal.
First, take out a self-heating pot, put in rice, rinse the rice, and cook the rice—all in one go.
Then I took out a cleaver and cutting board from the cupboard, washed and chopped the vegetables, heated oil in a pan, and a dish of stir-fried pork with chili peppers and tomato and egg soup was ready, filling two large plates.
The rich aroma of the food made Lu Manman swallow hard. "It's ready!"
"Wow, that's amazing!" Both his comrade and Yuanyuan were impressed by the cooking skills.
Lu Manman smiled proudly, "These are nothing. If I wasn't worried that Master wouldn't be able to finish them, I could make even more delicious food."
Comrades and Yuanyuan all gave a thumbs up.
Lu Manman brought all the food to the table, but didn't see Qi Xiuyuan. "Where's the master?"
Lu Manman looked at her comrade in confusion. Her comrade had come in to urge her, and she had thought that Qi Xiuyuan was waiting outside.
His comrade scratched his head sheepishly. "I was just a little curious about you. Wait a moment, I'll call the master out now."
As soon as Qi Xiuyuan stepped out of the room, the aroma of the food eagerly wafted into his nostrils—it smelled so good! Upon closer inspection, he saw vibrant green peppers paired with tender slices of meat, and yellow eggs mixed with bright red tomatoes, making his mouth water.
Qi Xiuyuan picked up the rice and took a small bite. The unprecedented deliciousness shocked his taste buds. It was even better than any food he had ever eaten before.
Qi Xiuyuan quickly and elegantly began to eat, and before long, only the bare plate remained.
Standing to the side, Lu Manman kept swallowing, she really wanted to try it too, she had almost forgotten what the food tasted like.
Qi Xiuyuan wiped his mouth and looked at Lu Manman, who quickly composed herself.
Qi Xiuyuan: "You did a great job. Keep it up tomorrow."
"Yes, Master!"
Qi Xiuyuan frowned slightly, "Don't call me master, call me Xiuyuan!"
"Okay, Xiuyuan."
What's going on? Is this normal?
Regardless of what Lu Manman thought, Qi Xiuyuan, having eaten and drunk his fill, left the table contentedly, and his comrades quickly followed.
Seeing that they had closed the door, Yuanyuan happily ran out from the corner. "Huahua, you're so amazing! It seems that Master really likes you. He even lets you call him by his name."
"Hehe, really? Maybe." Lu Manman always felt that things weren't so simple.
