Mother Lan's eyes were a little moist; she and her son had the same feeling.
During the war years, she was always worried about Lan An's safety, but what could she do as a woman trapped in the deep palace?
She could only kneel before the Buddha and pray every day. Swords and knives were merciless on the battlefield. She hoped to get information about Lan Euan, but also hoped to get no news at all.
After all, sometimes no news is the best news.
Things are different now. In this world, countless high technologies and advanced means not only allow people who are thousands of miles apart to talk to each other, but also allow them to see with their own eyes whether the other person is safe.
This world is truly a beautiful place. This is a sentiment that Mother Lan has repeated countless times in the past few days.
"Mother Lan." Chu Qiuze thought for a moment, "I won't be going home tonight. If you have any questions, just call my brother."
Mother Lan nodded. Nothing would happen and there would be no danger living here.
Three meals a day are prepared on time, and if you need to buy something, you just need to operate on your mobile phone and someone will deliver it quickly.
Nowhere is life more convenient and comfortable than here.
She now takes care of Anbei every day, and in her free time she reads books, learns some knowledge, or watches TV series. Her life is so fulfilling.
They chatted about family matters for a while, and according to normal procedure, they should have said good night to each other, but Mother Lan obviously had something else to do, and she was not able to say it out loud.
Chu Qiuze and Lan An looked at each other and saw what was in each other's eyes.
"Mom." Lan An decided to give her mother a reassurance first, "Don't worry about Uncle Yao. We have already made arrangements."
Mother Lan nodded shyly. She had been here for a few days and was looking forward to seeing that person every day.
The three of them said good night and hung up the phone.
"My dear husband." Chu Qiuze lay on Lan An, "How did you arrange things for Uncle Yao? I don't want to go over to pick him up and see people everywhere. That would be the end of me."
Lan An changed her position to make him lie more comfortably. "Don't worry about it. I have already explained in detail how to turn on the locator in the letter. Uncle Yao is not a fool. He sold the bookstore two days ago and left the city."
Chu Qiuze nodded, guessing that Uncle Yao would find a secluded place to stay.
He asked again: "What about the time? Have you made an appointment?"
Lan An nodded, "Tomorrow night, at midnight."
"But...when the time comes, I'll take the person away, and then come back, what should I do?"
This is a big problem.
Now that the locator is not turned on, every time he travels through time, he can only return to the same place where he left last time. Tomorrow night he will go to pick up Uncle Yao, and the locator is in Uncle Yao's hands. If he goes back to Dahan, he will have to go back to the place where he picked him up.
I don’t know how far Uncle Yao has gone. If he hasn’t gone far, he would have driven back overnight.
I'm just afraid of being seen by someone with ulterior motives.
Xiao En jumped out and said, "I will open a door in the palace first, and you can take the person home and then bring the locator here."
What a good idea.
Chu Qiuze couldn't help but look at the system a few more times. From the way these people interacted with each other, it seemed that Xiao En was indeed a very humane system as he had said at the beginning, and had never done anything bad.
I just don’t know if it’s an illusion, but he always feels that Xiaoen’s cat head seems to be a little fatter?
"What? I can't gain weight?" Cat-head Xiao En noticed the host's gaze, "I ate too much dog food in one day and gained weight. Is that not okay?"
Chu Qiuze couldn't hold back his laughter. He really felt that this system was becoming more and more like a human being. Apart from not being able to eat, this system would occasionally watch cartoons like a child and complain while watching. It also had to sleep every night and even snored while sleeping.
Also, every time he was being intimate with Lan Euan, he would automatically hide away and would never come back unless called.
"Let me ask you, can you turn into a human?" Chu Qiuze suddenly had an idea. Since he could poop on a cat, why couldn't he turn into a human?
Xiao En was stunned for a moment, then he asked, "Are you talking about the human form, or the living human body?"
"Is there any difference between the two?" Chu Qiuze asked again.
Xiao En flew to the sofa chair, lowered his head, and said embarrassedly: "If you just need a human form, then I can do a holographic projection. As long as you don't touch me, you won't be able to find me at all."
Chu Qiuze understood what was meant. It meant that Xiao En could become a human, but there were two states. The first one was just as Xiao En said, but it was still virtual.
The second is to truly become a person.
Chu Qiuze was silent for a moment, "So do you want to be a human being?"
Xiao En's eyes lit up, but she regained her composure in an instant.
Chu Qiuze didn't miss his gaze and asked, "Is it difficult to do?"
Xiao En nodded and shook his head, "There is a character creation function in the system mall..."
Before he could finish his words, Chu Qiu Ze opened the control panel. There were so many things in the mall, from ancient times to the present, and even thousands of years into the future. There was everything, all in a mess. He had indeed never looked at it carefully.
It took me a long time to figure out the character creation function.
Xiao En never raised his head from beginning to end. Which intelligent AI with human emotions would not want to be a real person?
In the interstellar world, only AI or systems that make great contributions can be selected by the rulers, and then they are genetically modified with two humans to create an artificial human and integrate the wisdom of the system.
How could a small system like him that has made no contribution be chosen by the interstellar rulers?
The only possibility is whether the host is willing to pay a high price to replace a physical body for his system.
Chu Qiuze was shocked when he just turned over this figurine. It was too damn expensive!
Eighty million gratitude points.
He looked at his balance. He had quite a bit of gratitude points before, but he had redeemed some things for his brother, all of which were high-tech contributions to the 21st century, so now he still had a long way to go!
I took stock of what I had done during this time.
Potatoes and sweet potatoes will be planted in the spring of next year and distributed across the country, and we should be able to harvest a lot. We should also be able to harvest a lot of daily necessities. As for the improved rice paper, it could only be supplied to Rujing City before, but now that the production has been increased, it should be able to be sold all over the country soon.
After careful calculation, 80 million gratitude points is not a difficult task.
"Xiao En." Chu Qiuze touched Xiao En's cat head lovingly, "When we have accumulated enough gratitude points, I will give you a new body, okay?"
As for the need for genes from two people, it is not restricted to gender, and the blue eucalyptus is enough.
Xiao En suddenly flew up, his eyes full of disbelief.
This unreliable host of his was actually willing to spend so much gratitude points on him.
After a few months, he knew very well that collecting gratitude points was not easy, and these gratitude points could bring many things to the host and even change the development of the 21st century.
"You don't have to think so much, we are a family." Chu Qiuze held Cat Head in his arms, "Anyway, I don't know how long I have to complete this long-term mission, you have to accompany me. You have a human form, and you can help me run errands and so on."
Xiao En: “…” I was so moved, but it turned out that it was just to let him run errands!
But he was still very happy. He looked at the time and place. The host and the prince were alone together. It was time for him to leave.
Chu Qiuze looked at Xiao En's back as he flew away, raised his eyebrows, and asked Lan An: "Husband, do you know why he keeps disappearing?"
Lan An was not a fool, he naturally knew that when he and Chu Qiu Ze were alone, Chu Qiu Ze would do something to him, and sometimes even be more intimate with him.
It is naturally inconvenient to have outsiders around.
Chu Qiuze threw himself into Lan'an's arms, "Husband, why don't you answer me? Huh?"
Lan An held him in his arms and kissed his forehead gently, "This is the reason."
Chu Qiuze curled his lips, turned over and rode on Lan An's body, "That's it? It's not enough. You proposed to me, so I am naturally your fiancé, so...should we do something to celebrate?"
Lan An stiffened slightly. He naturally knew that Chu Qiu Ze wanted to be close to him.
But this proposal does not mean a real marriage, so how can the marriage be consummated?
"Stop making trouble." Lan An said in a hoarse voice, holding down Chu Qiuze's hand which was unbuttoning his belt.
Chu Qiuze pouted in dissatisfaction. He was full of thoughts and it was rare that no one came to disturb him today, and there was nothing else to worry about.
Don't you want to let people do something? We are all adults.
Lan An bit Chu Qiuze's lower lip and rubbed it with his fangs as if punishing him. "Qingqing, be good and don't make trouble."
Who knows how long his little self-control can control himself?
If it's really before marriage...
Lan An didn't dare to think about it too much. This was too against his principles, and... he was worried that Chu Qiu Ze couldn't bear it at all.
Moreover, I am afraid that I can't do it right away after marriage. Maybe I need to start from childhood to adulthood to give Qingqing some time to adapt.
Yu Shi has already found someone to make it, and it should be delivered in a while.
Chu Qiuze had no idea how powerful his husband Junjun's family was. He only knew that he had been rejected so many times when he took the initiative.
He was unhappy and a little emotional, so he rushed over and bit Blue Gum's Adam's apple.
Lan Euan pushed him onto the sofa and kissed him on the lips, "Qingqing, stop teasing me."
His eyes were filled with deep desire.
Chu Qiuze was happy again. It seemed that his husband Jun was not indifferent to him.
"Just like before, okay?" He leaned over to Lan'an's ear and coaxed her, "I want..."
Lan An took a long breath, swung his palm back and chopped out, and all the candles in the room were extinguished instantly.
Chu Qiuze found it funny and bit Lan An's ear again, "Are you shy, my husband? Don't you want to see what I look like when I'm aroused?"
Lan Euan kissed his chattering little mouth, leaving him speechless and unable to speak except for uncontrollable gasps and moans.
Practice makes perfect. Lan An's technique became more and more proficient. Chu Qiu Ze held Lan An's hand at the critical moment and forced himself to hold back the fireworks.
"Husband! Let me help you too, okay?" Chu Qiuze untied Lan An's belt. He could feel Lan An's desire.
Lan An refused without hesitation, and once again pinned Chu Qiuze's hands to his head, preventing him from making any movements, while his other hand resumed movement.
Chu Qiu Ze's performance this time was pretty good, um, about fifteen minutes, a little better than last time.
Chu Qiuze, who had entered sage mode, was like a dead dog, lying on the sofa in dishevelled clothes, letting unknown liquid drip onto the sofa.
He felt that he should have a cigarette now, so as to express his grief.
"I'll carry you to take a shower." Both of them were sweating and couldn't just sleep like this.
Chu Qiuze looked at Lan An, who was still well-dressed, and with great dissatisfaction, he smeared the unknown liquid on his hands, and then smeared it on Lan An's face.
