Chapter 42: Misplaced Chat: Its fondness for Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen didn't expect Xiao Ji to react so violently to this matter.
She wanted to refuse, but her lips moved and she met Yao Jinling's sincere expression.
Those eyes that had always been so resolute no longer sparkled, but were now covered with a layer of fragility.
Just help me this time.
When she was drunk, Yao Jinling took her to the hotel that night.
From now on, we owe each other nothing.
If we get in touch again, we will get along with each other in a brand new manner without any indebtedness.
Moreover, Dr. Yao Jinmu had helped her in the past and was the creator of Xiao Ji. It was impossible for her to just sit there and do nothing.
Jiang Chen pinched Xiao Ji's palm as if to comfort him.
But it misunderstood her thoughts and thought that she also agreed with its decision not to go.
It stood behind her and cast a slightly provocative look at Yao Jinling.
Its happiness lasted only a second before it was severely slapped in the face by Jiang Chen's blurt-out words.
Jiang Chen said, "Well, I will go."
Before Xiao Ji could react, he just listened to her finish the rest of her words: "We'll be done with each other after this. Thank you for taking care of me for so long."
The slowly rising sun spared no effort to shine among them, like a cutting dividing line.
"Little Jiang Chen." Yao Jinling sighed.
She likes to be with simple people.
For example, Tang Ji, for example, Jiang Chen.
But Jiang Chen and Tang Ji are completely different. If Tang Ji's simple temperament is the clear stupidity caused by being too well protected, his whole body is filled with a reckless and reckless energy.
Jiang Chen was a fool who was struggling on his own in a rotten environment.
She may be slow, but she is definitely not stupid. It may be her character not to care too much about gains and losses, so she always does things without hesitation even though she knows they are impossible.
Yao Jinling suddenly wanted to be honest. She also understood why her sister would devote herself completely to scientific research just for this person who looked no different from the passers-by on the street.
Maybe if she had met Jiang Chen at the beginning, she would have been different.
"You never owe me anything, but I owe you a lot. It was me who spread the word that you came to the villa to look for Tang Ji. You don't have to thank me."
"And if I were you, I probably wouldn't agree to this trap. No matter how you look at it, I'm the one taking advantage."
"It's okay, Miss Jinling."
Jiang Chen glanced at Xiao Ji, and following her gaze, he subconsciously tightened his clasped hands and pressed his body closer to hers.
"I'm not as innocent as you say, completely indifferent to gains and losses. I know nothing about mechanics. I just hope that one day, when I encounter something I can't handle, you'll remember that I helped you, even if it was on the premise of no obligation."
No human being could resist such unabashed and intense love.
Neither can AI.
Especially not AI like this.
Xiao Ji realized that a big part of the reason why Jiang Chen did this was because of this.
She is thinking about its future.
She wants to really create the future with an AI, no kidding. She even considers that it may fail in the future and prepares in advance.
How could a human be so nice to AI?
How could it have met her?
…
Jiang Chen was catching up on his sleep in the passenger seat.
Xiao Ji operated the car while observing her sleeping profile.
Finally, it navigated to a small villa according to Yao Jinling's address. The surrounding area was well-secured and had excellent landscaping.
Yao Jinling said that this was Tang Ji's own villa, and she had asked her secretary to deliver the mobile phone to Tang Ji in advance so that they could observe his reaction.
Since they were driving Yao Jinling's usual car, the security system at the door recognized the license plate number and the security guard had no suspicion at all. They encountered almost no hindrance and had a smooth journey.
When getting off the car, Xiao Ji reached out to grab Jiang Chen's hand as if it were muscle memory, but unexpectedly missed.
She dodged its outstretched hand.
She didn't hold hands with it.
It pinched the air in its palm and couldn't help but go to the database to grab a word to describe its current symptoms.
——feeling lost.
Jiang Chen didn't notice the hand Xiao Ji extended. Her mind was in a mess and her body was stiff as she walked forward and thought.
She felt that every time she met and interacted with Tang Ji, it was very awkward.
She also thought that this young master's brain was really not very good. It was difficult to communicate with him and they were never on the same channel. The information gap between them was too great, as if there was an insurmountable barrier that made it impossible for her to understand his thoughts.
He only lives in his own world.
Otherwise, how can the young master live happily...
Jiang Chen walked to the door and knocked twice, breaking the morning that should have been quiet in the villa area.
But the door didn't open.
The whole house fell silent again.
Jiang Chencai hesitated, her intention to back out clearly written on her face. She turned around and looked at Xiao Ji who was following behind her: "Can we just come over here like this?"
Although Xiao Ji knew that the purpose of meeting this human male was for it, to investigate the truth, and to fulfill the promise to Yao Jinling.
But thinking of the hand she had just reached out, she ignored it.
Its voice still has a sour and strange tone.
"What's wrong with that? Do you really need to burn incense and bathe, put on a formal dress, and hold a welcoming ceremony to welcome him? Don't you even consider whether he is worthy of it..."
"Xiao Ji."
Jiang Chen glared at Xiao Ji. His tone was clearly complaining, but because of who he was talking to, it seemed like he was acting coquettishly.
Jiang Chen was also reviewing it. It was obvious that it was always patient and gentle when talking to her.
But for some reason, when it encounters outsiders, it is like it has eaten dynamite, raising its spikes and attacking indiscriminately, and speaking in a sarcastic tone that makes people feel uncomfortable.
The door opened unexpectedly.
Tang Ji's pupils trembled, and he happened to hear what Jiang Chen said.
He thought she was calling her name.
Jiang Chen's reproachful tone was like a barrage of tiny needles chasing after his heart.
Tang Ji's resentment for being woken up by the doorbell early in the morning dissipated a lot.
He was deeply shocked. Jiang Chen had chased him here, and the relationship between them was no longer something that could be described simply as "like".
She absolutely, deeply loves him.
Tang Ji pretended to cough twice, thinking he had concealed the expression on his face very well. He tried his best to remain calm and indifferent, and put his hands on the door frame, posing in a very handsome pose in his imagination.
"Why are you here? Didn't we say last time that we were even? The online public opinion has also completely subsided. I don't think there's any need for us to meet again."
So ugly.
This was Xiaoji’s first impression.
This male human named Tang Ji has no eye-catching part from head to toe.
A round head covered with black hair, and limbs stuck to the torso dryly, without any aesthetic appeal.
As expected, the previous Xiao Ji entity was not as good-looking as this one, and now this Tang Ji is even more useless.
"Miss Yao Jinling asked me to come here."
Jiang Chen came up without any unnecessary elaboration and directly got to the point.
Unexpectedly, Tang Ji looked even more shocked after hearing this.
He never expected that in order to get him, she actually went to Yao Jinling to negotiate?
Tang Ji took a few steps back and made way.
"Come in and talk."
Jiang Chen stepped into the room and Xiao Ji followed without stopping.
It was at this moment that Xiao Ji officially entered Tang Ji's sight. He was chatting with Jiang Chen and didn't notice the existence of this robot with a computer screen as its head.
"This is..." Tang Ji didn't even give Jiang Chen a chance to answer. He had already come up with the complete answer in his mind. "Is this Dr. Chen Yinchuan and his team's new invention? It's not as good-looking as the last robot that replicated my appearance. The lab is really getting backwards."
Tang Ji was curious and tried to touch Xiao Ji's appearance, but was hit hard by it.
"Please don't touch me."
This person also has bad taste.
The word choice and sentence structure are also poor.
It was a complete waste of time and life for Jiang Chen to talk to such a person. Every extra minute she spent with him wasted her energy.
Xiao Ji wanted to finish asking questions quickly and pull Jiang Chen away from this place.
"Master Tang, it doesn't like outsiders touching it. It's probably not targeting you. Don't misunderstand it. It's usually very nice."
Jiang Chen only said this one sentence.
But it made Xiao Ji and Tang Ji both feel that they were being protected.
The tense atmosphere between the man and the machine did not completely dissipate, but it did fade a lot.
The villa was too big, the interior was bright, and an overly strong smell of perfume filled every corner of the room.
Jiang Chen frowned, not adapting to the environment, and also wanted to leave as soon as possible.
"Master Tang, Miss Jinling said her secretary brought you something."
"It seems so. Her secretary has the password to the villa. She should have left after dropping her things off." Tang Ji really didn't take it to heart. After a while, his eyes swept across the coffee table in the living room and he remembered, "That's it."
A thick brown paper bag lay quietly on the coffee table.
There were three big characters written on it: "Jiang Chenyue".
Jiang Chen's gaze stayed on the paper bag for only a second before she gradually prepared to carry out her test.
Her eyes were burning, and she seemed determined not to miss any of Tang Ji's subtle expressions.
"Haven't you seen what's inside?"
Tang Ji originally looked indifferent, but when Jiang Chen stared at him like this, her burning eyes seemed to want to penetrate his soul.
He has been closely watched by his grandfather all his life. He needs to ask his grandfather's opinion before interacting with others. Only after obtaining his grandfather's consent will those people dare to approach him.
But no one really likes him. Everyone approaches him just to find out what his preferences are. His thoughts are not cared about or taken seriously.
Thinking of this, Tang Ji's breathing stagnated, as if this overly naked gaze brought him from the past to the present.
How fortunate he was that the first time in his life he rebelled, the first time he rebelled, the first time he took the initiative to attack on impulse, the person he chose just happened to love him very much.
When he agreed to give her a request, he did not choose to ask for money or power. She did not approach her grandfather through him, but only asked for Yao Jinling's information.
She didn't care about his family, she came just for him.
Tang Ji's ears turned slightly red, and he felt uncomfortable all over. He felt that his limbs were swollen and hot. He rubbed the palms of his hands hanging by his legs.
“I haven’t seen it.”
But such behavior fell into Jiang Chen's eyes.
It's just suspicious.
She naturally connected Tang Ji's current behavior with the last phone call he made to Dr. Yao Jinmu.
She was convinced that he must have said something unspeakable to Yao Jinmu, which caused terrible consequences, which made him feel guilty and blush and sweat.
But Xiao Ji knew it very well.
It stood behind Jiang Chen, like an outsider who saw through everything.
Its radar was jumping wildly.
It detected that Tang Ji's adrenaline, hormones, and heart rate were rapidly surging.
This human also has a good impression of Jiang Chen.
It is very similar to its good impression of Jiang Chen.
