Chapter 4
After an unknown amount of time, Chenxi regained consciousness. This time, he was no longer enveloped in liquid. He felt a soft and solid sensation beneath him, and was wrapped in light and warm fabric. He seemed to be on an extremely comfortable bed.
It seems... the treatment is pretty good.
Chen Xi prepared herself mentally, opened her eyes, and met a pair of golden eyes once again.
Chen Xi couldn't help but blink. It seemed that the time she woke up before wasn't a hallucination.
But are gold and red eyes fashionable among people nowadays?
Chen Xi pondered, appearing very calm.
Of course, for those who have the courage to choose liquid nitrogen freezing, considering all the possibilities before freezing is one of the essential qualities.
After all, he may never live to see the day he is thawed. He may die in the liquid nitrogen tank due to war, natural disasters, or lack of maintenance fees, or he may even be disposed of like garbage.
Even if he is lucky enough to live to see the day someone thaws him, he may face the identity of a laboratory slide, a paleoanthropologist, or a penniless refugee.
Therefore, if you choose the path of cryopreservation without fully considering all possible consequences and being prepared to accept them, you might as well just comfortably spend your last few days and be cremated.
However, it seems he was lucky and didn't encounter the worst situation.
The fact that she felt well taken care of made Chenxi relax.
He silently stared into those golden eyes for a long time, then, despite the pressure, he spoke, "Excuse me, is there any cure for my illness?"
Chenxi naturally hadn't forgotten why she had taken such a big risk to choose cryopreservation, so asking that question was her top priority.
The mainframe, which had been silently observing humanity, was surprised that the first thing the human said was this. However, illness? He recalled the various injuries to the human's body when it was first frozen and said, "All the damage to your body has been repaired. You are healthy now."
"You are healthy." These were the words he had longed for since he was old enough to understand. When he actually heard them from someone else, Chenxi couldn't help but clench his fist in excitement.
As expected! His decision was correct.
The technology that humanity develops in the future may actually be able to cure his disease.
Eighteen years old is not the end for him!
Mom and Dad, he can live on again!
The intense emotions and complex feelings of finally having a wish fulfilled brought tears to Chenxi's eyes.
The moment the mainframe noticed the tears welling up in the human's eyes, it could no longer maintain its indifference and calm. The super-powerful mainframe chip rapidly searched for all existing data about the human, compared and analyzed it, and finally deduced that the human's tears were not due to injury or sadness.
Sure enough, as if to verify the mainframe's powerful computational and deductive abilities, the next moment, Chen Xi, the human, wiped her eyes somewhat embarrassed and smiled at the golden-eyed man beside the bed, "Sorry, I'm just too happy."
The mastermind...
Humans are indeed creatures with rich and unpredictable emotions.
The mainframe paused for a moment, then, following the pre-prepared procedure, brought over a cup of hot drink specially formulated for human research.
Existing data on human psychology shows that after experiencing a major upheaval, providing a warm blanket and a hot drink can effectively soothe emotions and bring a sense of security.
"For me? Thank you." Chen Xi looked at the golden-eyed man with some surprise.
However, the good news that followed her after waking up, as well as the embarrassing incident of her crying in front of him, made Chenxi feel less distant and wary of men. When she saw him handing her a cup, she thought of sitting up to take it.
However, Chenxi's body was still a little weak, and his movements as he got up were somewhat limp. The next moment, a strong arm reached out and supported Chenxi's shoulders and back, helping him sit up effortlessly. The arm also thoughtfully placed a soft cushion behind Chenxi's back, allowing him to lean back very comfortably.
The sudden closeness allowed Chenxi to clearly see the other person's sharp, handsome features. The close proximity and intimate actions made Chenxi feel breathless with admiration.
Actually, when Chen Xi woke up earlier, he noticed that this man had incredibly handsome features from every angle. His good looks could easily outshine any top star, making Chen Xi even wonder if the first person he saw after waking up was a future superstar.
However, Chen Xi, who had just woken up, had more important issues to focus on, so she forcibly ignored the man's appearance. Now that the life-threatening crisis had been resolved, looking at this man again, his lethality had increased exponentially.
Even the other person's dazzling golden eyes, which had initially made him feel somewhat uncomfortable, now seemed to him to be the most suitable color in the world for that person. Such a radiant appearance deserved such a dazzling color.
Chenxi's mind was filled with all sorts of random thoughts. She took the cup from the man's hand and found it was hot. She tentatively took a sip of the liquid in the cup. It was sweet and sticky. She didn't know what it was, but it tasted good.
Before I knew it, I had drunk more than half a cup.
As it turns out, the information about humans in the database is very useful. At least after Chenxi finished half a cup of hot drink, she felt more relaxed and had a better impression of the golden-eyed man in the room.
Because he discovered that this super handsome guy with a pair of indifferent golden eyes, although he seemed like a cool guy who was hard to approach, was actually a very meticulous and considerate person. Not to mention the actions of the other party helping him up and putting a pillow under his arm, the fact that he specially prepared a hot drink for him also showed that he must be a super gentle person.
He would definitely thank them properly when he had the chance. However, although his life was out of danger, there was still a very important question. Even though he knew that his chances of seeing his parents alive again after waking up were very slim, what if something unexpected happened?
So Chenxi cautiously and expectantly asked the golden-eyed man her second question, "Excuse me, could you tell me what year it is now?"
The incomparably handsome man lowered his head slightly, his indifferent golden eyes reflecting the expectant look on the human boy's face. His beautiful lips parted slightly: "New calendar... 8322."
Chen Xi, who had been full of anticipation, froze. For the first time, a look of confusion appeared in her dark eyes. What? What is this?
