Chapter 18
Realizing that Chenxi truly had feelings for his spare body, Jin Yi didn't deliberately prevent the spare body from appearing in front of Chenxi, thus avoiding making Chenxi anxious to find it.
However, this feeling that "another person" is more important than herself still makes it impossible for Jin Yi to be completely calm. Jealousy happens from time to time, and she has to compare herself with that person from time to time.
For example, right now, seeing Chen Xi leaning against the spare body's chest, laughing non-stop because of the video he had just watched, his fingers even running through the spare body's short black hair, gently and intimately holding it, his gaze darkened again.
Soon after, Jin Yi, with his black hair, left temporarily to retrieve some items, and in his place, sitting beside Chen Xi, was the god-like true form.
After this period of adjustment, Chen Xi had barely gotten used to Jin Yi's imposing appearance. So even when that godlike figure sat next to him, he didn't stop his source of joy and remained engrossed in funny videos.
Then, as she laughed, her hand instinctively rose again, as if searching for something. However, Chenxi still maintained a sliver of subconsciousness, and after raising her hand halfway, she forcibly lowered it again, then continued to laugh while looking at the tablet, until Chenxi realized that the atmosphere in the room seemed a little strange.
When he looked up, he saw a pair of dazzling golden eyes that seemed to be suppressing a storm. Combined with the other person's appearance and the overwhelming pressure emanating from them, they could easily scare an ordinary person to the point of collapse.
However, Chen Xi was no ordinary person. As someone who had always been pampered and cherished by Jin Yi, he hesitated for a moment before cautiously approaching and asking, "What's wrong?"
When Jin Yi saw Chen Xi's concerned expression, especially her focused, dark eyes, her initial low mood gradually dissipated, and she returned to her usual indifferent demeanor.
"It's nothing," he said casually, then turned his head away.
A second later, Jin Yi turned back to Chen Xi and said in a tone that was hard to decipher, "Didn't you just want to grab my hair? You can grab mine too."
After hearing Jin Yi's clearly suggestive words, Chen Xi finally understood why Jin Yi was angry. He was speechless for a moment. However, he was not completely oblivious to Jin Yi's recent mood. He knew that although Jin Yi seemed not angry now, if he did not touch his hair as instructed, Jin Yi would really continue to be angry.
So Chenxi's gaze naturally turned to Jin Yi's long hair, which looked like golden silk and seemed... very nice to touch.
The reason Chen Xi stopped halfway through raising his hand was because he remembered that the person next to him was the original body. He wasn't as familiar with the original body as he was with the black-haired Jin Yi. Another reason was that the original body looked too noble and unapproachable. In front of that god-like original body, one felt that even making a sound would be an offense. Although Chen Xi was able to interact naturally with the original body because of the eyes that belonged to Jin Yi, he subconsciously withdrew his hand before he could even think about grabbing the original body's hair.
But now the original body is making him touch his hair, and he'll get angry if he doesn't.
So what can we do? Of course, we have no choice but to give in to his demands!
Under Jin Yi's watchful gaze, Chen Xi slowly stretched out her curious little paw.
When Chenxi's fingers touched the golden hair, he couldn't describe the feeling he had at that moment; he was instantly captivated by the sensation of the hair flowing through his fingertips.
It feels so good to the touch, as smooth as silk. Today, Chenxi finally believes that the hair in those shampoo commercials actually exists in reality.
Chen Xi touched the hair for a while before reluctantly withdrawing his hand. However, just as his fingertips were about to leave the strands of hair, something happened that made his eyes widen involuntarily. A strand of hair that had been hanging quietly suddenly started to move on its own, quickly wrapping around his fingers like a nimble snake.
Startled by the sudden situation, Chen Xi instinctively raised his hand to shake it off, but at the last moment, he remembered that it was Jin Yi's hair, and he stopped himself from doing so, thus avoiding hurting Jin Yi.
Then Chenxi's eyes widened as she stared intently at the hair tangled around her fingertips, asking incredulously, "What is this? It moves?"
Jin Yi nodded and smiled, "Every hair of mine is made up of billions of nanobots, of course it can move."
As she spoke, the remaining strands of hair that had been hanging down peacefully all began to sway gently, then began to wrap around the parts of Chen Xi's body that they had chosen. Soon, Chen Xi's wrists and ankles were covered with hair.
"How is it?" Jin Yi looked at Chen Xi with a smile in his eyes, his meaning clear, as if to tell Chen Xi that this was the main body of the main brain, which was incomparable to that crude backup body.
After a long pause, Chen Xi nodded with mixed feelings, "Very impressive, but... could you please let me go first?"
At this moment, Chenxi's hands and feet were completely entangled in hair, making it impossible for her to move. Some of the hair was even tentatively spreading towards Chenxi's arms and calves. Upon hearing Chenxi's words, the hair rubbed against Chenxi's body before reluctantly retracting itself.
After being "untied," Chen Xi immediately moved to the side and looked at Jin Yi's hair with renewed vigilance. No matter how nice the long golden hair was to touch, he dared not try it again, because in his mind, that hair had become a symbol of someone who was not to be trifled with.
Jin Yi didn't know what Chen Xi was thinking, but having just shown off his advanced body as the mainframe, and seeing that Chen Xi had touched his hair for a long time and clearly liked it, his previous displeasure vanished, and their relationship returned to harmony.
...
After Chenxi arrived at the base, in addition to exploring his steel nest dwelling every day, test driving different flying cars and aircraft, and experiencing the new equipment specially built for him, something big happened: the kitten he wanted had been bred!
When the kitten was handed to Chenxi, it already had a full coat of soft fur, but it was still drinking milk and walking unsteadily. It was the cutest time for a kitten.
When Chenxi received this little baby, he was overjoyed. He abandoned his favorite games and entertainment and spent almost the entire day looking at the kitten.
This little guy has completely inherited the excellent genes of its champion parents. Although it is still very young, its fluffy white fur and deep blue eyes, like gemstones, already make it a top-tier beauty.
Persian's naturally flat face makes it a bit clumsy when it eats. Every time it buries its little face and lowers its head to drink milk, it will be covered in milk stains when it lifts its head, which is absolutely adorable.
For Chen Xi, who had never owned a pet before but had always wanted one, this little kitten fulfilled all his fantasies and filled him with enthusiasm. He even named the kitten Xianxian and kept mentioning it to Jin Yi every day. Jin Yi wondered if he had made a mistake by sending the kitten over so quickly.
Jin Yi originally thought that it was already annoying enough that a cat had taken up the attention that should have belonged to him, but he soon discovered something even more unbearable: Chen Xi put the cat in the spare body's arms, took many photos of the spare body and the cat together, and then set them as the background image of the two-in-one tablet.
Jin Yi had always thought he was very magnanimous. Since Chen Xi had feelings for the backup body, he figured he should let the backup body stay with Chen Xi as well, since it was all him anyway. But after this incident, he realized he wasn't so magnanimous. Chen Xi took a picture of the backup body and the cat and set it as his tablet background. What did that mean? Did it mean that those were his favorite things? Then what was he, the original body, to her?
Even though Jin Yi knew he was being inexplicably jealous and angry, he couldn't control himself at all. He even found the spare body increasingly annoying.
Jin Yi took a deep breath, but the mainframe was never one to act on emotion. So, while he was angry, his powerful computational and reasoning abilities had already deduced countless solutions to this problem.
Finally, when Jin Yi opened her eyes, a smile returned to them.
Through the StarNet, he issued a series of commands to the vast machine army in the outer universe, and then came to Chenxi's side. His godlike and beautiful face was facing Chenxi, and his long golden hair cascaded down his back. He said, "Baby, do you want to go and see the outer universe?"
