Jiang Zheyu didn't know what to say.
She slowly walked into the palace.
"Your Highness, I'm back." Jiang Yi's voice came from behind.
Jiang Zheyu turned to look at Jiang Yi and subconsciously used her mental energy to probe him, but found that she still couldn't detect his mental energy. So he was indeed the new butler.
The two then entered the palace together.
"How is it? Did you give the gift?" Jiang Zheyu turned her head and asked softly.
"It's been given." Jiang Yi responded gently, her pink phoenix eyes always filled with doting affection as she looked at Jiang Zheyu.
Jiang Zheyu had also received a message from Prince Jinyu on his personal terminal, confirming that the new steward was indeed the one they had selected.
Furthermore, they sent the new housekeeper's information to Jiang Zheyu.
The information shows that the rabbit-beastman has a mental strength of A-level.
However, Jiang Zheyu clearly did not detect any fluctuations in mental energy.
Even knowing that she had been selected by the Empire, she was still somewhat uneasy.
Although the new housekeeper seems perfectly normal at the moment, and there is nothing about her that could harm her.
Jiang Zheyu, with a tentative mindset, chatted with the new housekeeper: "Xiao Yi, may I ask your age?"
"Xiao Yi is quite old," Jiang Yi simply said.
Upon hearing Xiao Yi's words, Jiang Zheyu guessed that Xiao Yi must be several hundred years old.
"Is your beast form also a rabbit?" Jiang Zheyu thought of Xiao Luo's pink hair and pink eyes, which seemed to be a pink-haired little rabbit. Now the new butler also has pink hair and pink eyes, so it's not surprising that Jiang Zheyu thought this way.
However, it was mainly a test. If it was an android linked to the orc's mental energy, some mechanical parts would inevitably be exposed when it changed from android form to orc form.
It's also possible that this android only has the form of an android and not the form of a beastman. When she makes him reveal his beast form, if he can't, then she'll know he's an android.
Jiang Zheyu suspected he was a cyborg, but was unsure whether he actually was, so this was the only way to confirm it.
She even suspected that the other person might be a female without spiritual power disguised as a man.
“Yes, Jiang Yi’s beast form is a rabbit.” Jiang Yi nodded slightly.
The two returned to the palace hall.
Jiang Zheyu looked up at him and nodded: "Show me your rabbit ears."
Jiang Yi seemed to be taken aback for a moment, then his gaze quietly fell on Jiang Zheyu's face: "Does Your Highness want to see my rabbit ears?"
From the perspective of orcs, tails and ears are extremely sensitive things, and are usually only shown to their female masters. But now, Prince Yu Yu actually wants to see his rabbit ears, which seems to be a kind of hint.
But when Jiang Yi looked into the female's calm, seemingly unblinking, and focused brown eyes, it wasn't as if she was hinting, but rather as if she really wanted to see his rabbit ears.
But why were her eyes so focused and unblinking...?
Does she like bunny ears?
Jiang Yi was lost in thought.
Jiang Zheyu kept his eyes glued to the screen, afraid that he might have missed even the smallest mechanical part!
She noticed that Jiang Yi hadn't made a move, so she quietly asked, "What's wrong? Can't you conjure up your ears?"
"Sure." Jiang Yi smiled gently. Not only could it be rabbit ears, but if His Highness Yu Yu wanted to see other beastman ears, he could also install them.
As Jiang Yi spoke, he slowly leaned forward and lowered his head in front of Jiang Zheyu, as if he wanted her to see more clearly.
Jiang Zheyu fell silent for a moment. She stared intently, trying to see clearly whether any mechanical parts were exposed the moment the beast ears grew out!
Who knew that this person would actually lower their head? She could see that gaze clearly!
Is it because even if it grows mechanical rabbit ears, it would look very realistic and wouldn't reveal any trace of mechanical nature?
Otherwise, why would he lower his head so unreservedly so that she could see him clearly?
Jiang Zheyu soon found out.
Two pink and white rabbit ears slowly emerged from the man's pink hair.
Jiang Zheyu stared intently, but couldn't see a single mechanical component!
A slight twitch appeared at the corner of her mouth. No wonder he was so unscrupulous.
"Your Highness, if you like, you can touch it." The man's voice was encouraging and indulgent.
Jiang Zheyu thought to herself, "I'll just touch it and see if mechanical things can really be like real things."
"Then I won't be polite." Jiang Zheyu replied and reached out to grab the rabbit's ears and fold them up.
It's impossible for a machine to bend 180 degrees.
Indeed, it couldn't be folded 180 degrees. Instead, it was folded halfway through when she felt the resistance of the flexible rabbit ear bones, which felt just like the real thing!
Jiang Zheyu paused. Are interstellar androids really that powerful? Completely mimicking orcs 100%?
As she stood there in a daze, a large hand encircled her wrist. The man looked up at her helplessly and said, "Your Highness, don't break it so hard, it hurts..."
The pain that followed was a deep, masculine sound.
Upon hearing this voice, Jiang Zheyu reacted as if she had been electrocuted, quickly releasing the man's rabbit ears and taking a few steps back: "I'm sorry!"
In her heart, she thought, "He's just faking it. How could an android, whose whole body is mechanical, possibly be in pain?"
Jiang Yi slowly stood up straight, her face still bearing a gentle and doting smile: "It's alright."
However, he still wanted to remind his Prince Yuyu, "Prince Yuyu, please don't ask orcs to look at their tails and ears in the future, because these are considered the second most private places for orcs."
Jiang Zheyu's face froze for a moment, seemingly somewhat embarrassed: "Then why didn't you tell me just now?"
She looked at everything and even touched it; wasn't that just being a pervert?
Although she felt that an emotionless android was different from an orc and could not be lumped together with an orc.
But the man hasn't said he's an android; he identifies himself as a normal beastman.
Jiang Zheyu had no choice but to apologize again: "Sorry, I'll remember next time."
"Your Highness, you can remember not to do this to others, but it's okay to do it to me." Jiang Yi smiled slightly.
Jiang Zheyu: ?
Jiang Yi then slowly explained, "Because Princess Yuyu is Jiang Yi's master, Jiang Yi belongs to Princess Yuyu."
Jiang Zheyu: ?
She began to wonder, could it be one of her previous die-hard fans?
Jiang Zheyu felt her brain was overwhelmed. She desperately wanted to ask him directly: Who exactly is he? Why is he mentally linked to an android? What is his purpose in approaching her?
