Although she said she refused, she had already started stroking the dog like Aunt Wang did. Smart people learn quickly. She touched the base of the ear, then the chin, and stroked the fur from the dog's face to its tail.
The fingers, with their distinct knuckles and as white as fine jade, are a delightful sight as they pet the dog.
056 felt so good after being petted that its tail wagged like a propeller, and it almost flew straight into the sky.
Being a human's dog is so comfortable, Tutu! When I was a robot, nobody ever touched me.
[I'm so happy, so happy! I want to be my owner's dog for life.]
The system was exhausted. To prevent this little robot from developing a spoiled attitude and affecting later world missions, it issued a reminder:
[...Wake up! You're not a real dog, it's just a massage. Don't be fooled by human friendliness. The protagonist is a cunning and scheming guy, full of bad intentions.]
056: [Huh? He doesn't look bad at all, and he's actually quite handsome.]
System: [In his eyes, you're just a stupid dog, of course he won't treat you badly.]
056 thought for a moment: "Isn't it good that he's not bad? I think he's a good person."
The system replied dismissively, "Alright, alright, be careful. In a couple of days, once you turn into a human, he'll start ordering you around."
Moreover, it does a lot of bad things, but there's no need to tell the robot that, since it won't understand anyway.
...
Qi Chu's hand involuntarily reached out to touch the dog. The dog under his hand was fluffy and warm, radiating a vibrant life force.
Even though I never paid much attention to it before, it still acts like nothing's wrong and is very affectionate towards me, constantly burrowing its head into my hand.
Do you like me that much?
Her icy features softened somewhat.
After petting the dog, back to work.
His overseas and domestic forces are separate. He is the only one who takes the initiative to contact the other side. Even after six months apart, his subordinates have been working loyally for him.
These scattered forces have ties to both the legitimate and criminal worlds, although they are not as well-developed as those in China.
However, judging from the perspective of emerging forces, this power has already caught the attention of established families in City A.
Before the Qi and Li families betrayed him, did they ever consider how well he knew them?
He used to be an emperor who fought on the battlefield, and now that he's a rebel, he's bound to be the most powerful rebel.
It's just that his leg is crippled.
Thinking of the bidding task for the core real estate of the Qi family in three days and the many business opportunities that could be exploited, Qi Chu's lips curled up.
...
As usual, Aunt Wang from upstairs came to feed the people and dogs in the evening. She fed them bone broth, and Qi Chu ate the meat and drank the soup. 056 got a few pieces of meat and bone and some dog food soaked in soup.
Aunt Wang's cooking skills are amazing. The soup is made by simmering pork bones. It looks light and watery, but it tastes really good. She also added some nourishing medicinal herbs to it. She also stir-fried two light dishes. She didn't even need an insulated lunchbox; she just brought it down from upstairs.
056 first gnawed on the bones with very little meat before starting to eat dog food. Eating is a happy thing. The soup was delicious, but the dog food tasted so-so.
056 is not picky about food and will eat anything given to it. It focuses on eating solid food. Qi Chu and Aunt Wang don't usually chat much, so they eat quietly. The only sound in the living room is the dog drinking soup.
Aunt Wang patted 056's head while feeding the dog, her face full of affection: "Good boy, I'll buy you meat in a couple of days."
056's ears perked up; Aunt Wang is such a kind person!
Qi Chu ate with great elegance, his every move as pleasing to the eye as a painting. Upon hearing this, he glanced at Xiang 056.
I vaguely remember that when Aunt Wang found this dog in the trash can two years ago, it was still a puppy. The dogs that the Qi family raised, even if they were mongrels, were still the best of the best, the aristocrats among dogs.
So it grew up eating high-quality dog food, with its family's chef and nutritionist preparing its diet. It has a healthy, sleek appearance. People who sent gifts to its family found out that it had a dog, and many of the gifts they sent were for dogs. Qiqi started eating dog food in the last six months.
It's still affordable grain.
It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.
He still needs some time to resolve his legal troubles. He has money in his overseas accounts, but to prevent the Qi and Li families from finding out about his bank statements, he can only rely on Aunt Wang for financial support for the next week or two.
"Aunt Wang, I will pay you back."
He said that in the end, he didn't reveal his trump card.
Wang Cuifen is an honest and kind person, but she still needs to be careful during these important days.
"Ah Chu, the most important thing is to get better first. You don't need to worry about these things. Auntie has money here."
After dinner, Aunt Wang gave Qi Chu a leg recovery massage, and then hesitated before heading back.
Qi Chu went into the toilet by himself, struggled to support himself on his arms to get to the toilet, and then started to take a shower.
After lying in bed for half a year, he had lost all his muscle. If it weren't for his former physique, he would probably be even thinner now. Although Aunt Wang used to wipe his body, Qi Chu insisted on doing it himself this time.
056 entered the bathroom and was caught off guard to see a human male body.
The man's face was as handsome as if cast in stone, like a cold, sharp blade. He exuded a noble and arrogant aura, but his body was thin and frail. From his skeleton, one could tell that he must have been very tall and strong in the past. Now, all the muscles on his body were sunken in, not quite touching the skin and bones, but only a thin layer of muscle. The lines of his spine were sharp, and the lines of his waist, abdomen, and pubic bone were also very beautiful.
It's clear that the caregiver put in a lot of effort, continuing to massage him even while he was unable to move.
This thinness does not diminish the man's beauty at all; on the contrary, it gives him a unique, broken beauty. A beautiful person is beautiful no matter what, and if he becomes a skeleton, he will still be a beautiful skeleton.
