Chapter 59
Since Jin Yi didn't have anywhere she wanted to go, the journey eventually came to an end. Chen Xi returned to the inner universe, and this treasure of the entire Zhi Clan was once again returned to the core of its protection, where it was carefully hidden away.
After playing for a long time and passing through the wormhole again to return to the inner universe, Chenxi looked at the still huge and awe-inspiring space base and felt a sense of familiarity. Even though he hadn't stayed in this place for long, he now felt like he was coming home.
When Chenxi returned to his residence at his space base, he excitedly strolled around again. Ah, his steel nest was just so cool!
And during his absence, his residence wasn't entirely unchanged. He discovered that the outdoor activity space of the Steel Nest had expanded considerably, with many new recreational facilities added. A beautiful garden and grove had been meticulously maintained in one area, along with an ecological lake, making it practically a small park. It couldn't have been more thoughtful.
Looking at the small park, Chenxi happily took many photos and posted them on Xingwang, making no attempt to hide her fondness for it.
Seeing Chen Xi happy, Jin Yi and all the other members of the Zhi Clan were naturally happy as well.
The Ghibli, who proposed the idea of garden lakes, was praised to the skies on the StarNet.
Faced with such praise, the Orange-Eyed Intelligence Clan member with top-notch design skills calmly posted a message on the StarNet: "I am willing to dedicate all my designs to Chenxi. I hope everyone will vote for me in the candidate list of companion robots for the new Companion Act. Thank you."
As soon as this post was made, the attitudes of those who had previously praised this GZs completely reversed, and they all said, "Pah, rival in love!"
The personal page of this designer, Zhizu, instantly lost millions of followers, and some even went so far as to block and blacklist him on StarNet.
...
These events that caused such a stir on the StarNet were completely unknown to Chen Xi back in the Inner Universe. This was because Jin Yi had blocked Chen Xi from all information about the new companion robot bill as soon as it first emerged, so Chen Xi was completely unaware of it from beginning to end.
In response, Jin Yi said that there was no need for Chen Xi to know about these things that had no chance of succeeding.
In fact, things unfolded exactly as Jin Yi coldly and confidently predicted.
After Chenxi returned to the inner universe, although the matter of promoting a new partnership bill caused a great uproar on the Star Network and the situation escalated, it ultimately failed to succeed due to the joint petitions and efforts of many members of the Intelligence Clan.
One reason is that the marriage law used to be the highest law in Chile, equivalent to the constitution of humankind, and it was not so easy to amend.
Secondly, Jin Yi is the mastermind. A bill that the mastermind disagrees with, especially since it is the Supreme Court, which is the most difficult to amend, is not so easy to change.
So, despite trying every possible method, many people in the world of intelligence ultimately failed to change the Couples Act, which they considered extremely unreasonable.
In response, the members of the "Intelligence Clan" said they had made another note of the **mastermind** blocking their way in their notebooks.
...
...
Regardless of what happened on the Star Network, Chenxi, who was protected by Jin Yi with impenetrable security, still lived a peaceful and happy life in the Inner Universe. Every day, besides enjoying life in various ways, she studied for an hour every day and continued to be sweet and loving with Jin Yi.
After becoming partners with Jin Yi, Chen Xi discovered that the saying he had heard before, "marriage is the grave of love," seemed to be completely inaccurate. Because after becoming partners with Jin Yi, he found that he liked Jin Yi a little more every day than the day before. His daily thoughts were always, "How can Jin Yi be so good? How can Jin Yi be so handsome?"... The idea of a "married period of boredom," discovering all sorts of flaws in one's partner, or having conflicts simply didn't exist.
But then Chenxi thought that Jin Yi was a robot, and that famous quote about marriage was directed at marriages between humans, so everything seemed to make sense.
Yes, the 95% marriage rate between humans and robots in the interstellar era is truly remarkable.
It was 11:00 PM at the base, which was the time when Chenxi should have been sleeping. Jin Yi helped Chenxi tidy up the blankets, then leaned down and kissed Chenxi's forehead. He dimmed the lights in the bedroom and then prepared to leave.
But Jin Yi, who had turned around, did not take a step. He looked down at his hand and saw a slender, soft hand holding his. Chen Xi, who had been keeping her eyes closed, had opened them at some point and asked, "Can't there be any noise around you when you're working at night?"
"No," Jin Yi replied, then paused and asked, "What's wrong?"
Chen Xi blushed slightly, shrank a little deeper into the blankets, and said, "Then when you're working at night, can you stay with me instead of leaving?"
Jin Yi dedicates several hours each day to handling the numerous affairs of the entire Zhi Clan. To maximize efficiency, he spends these hours in a state of near standby. Jin Yi has always been somewhat concerned about this trait that makes him different from humans, so he always makes a point of leaving Chen Xi's side when he is in standby mode to handle affairs.
It wasn't so bad before, because Jin Yi chose to handle his affairs at night. He wouldn't be away from Chen Xi for a few hours while she was sleeping, so it didn't have much of an impact. But after he became Chen Xi's companion robot, Chen Xi now wants to be with Jin Yi every moment more and more. Even the few hours Jin Yi leaves each night are a bit unbearable. So today, she finally couldn't help but tell Jin Yi.
Faced with Chen Xi's request, Jin Yi's eyes flickered, and he hesitated, "This..."
Unfortunately, Chenxi had been thinking about this for a long time and didn't give Jinyi a chance. She asked again, "If I talk in my sleep at night, or accidentally bump into you when I turn over, will it affect you?"
"I don't know how to do that either..."
"I don't care, I want you to sleep with me." With that, Chen Xi threw off the covers and pounced on Jin Yi, hugging his waist without giving him a chance to leave.
When Jin Yi saw Chen Xi's actions, she quickly reached out to support him and draped the blanket over him to keep him warm, even though the room was actually at a constant temperature.
Noticing Jin Yi's movement, Chen Xi, who was burying her head in Jin Yi's waist, revealed a victorious smile.
Sure enough, a little while later, Jin Yi gave in and agreed to stay at Chen Xi's place that night.
Upon hearing this, Chen Xi excitedly shouted "Yay!" and immediately pulled Jin Yi onto the bed.
Faced with Chen Xi's incredibly enthusiastic actions, Jin Yi's eyes darkened slightly, and he said in a sexy, husky voice, "So enthusiastic? Does that mean I can fulfill the next stage of my partner obligations tonight?"
Upon hearing Jin Yi's words, Chen Xi froze instantly, then rolled to the other side of the bed, a little distance away from Jin Yi, and said warily, "Don't overthink it. Tonight we're just sleeping together, you're just sleeping with me."
Upon hearing Chen Xi's words, Jin Yi responded with an "oh," her voice carrying a hint of obvious regret.
Seeing this, Chenxi hugged her blanket even tighter.
However, Chen Xi's distance from Jin Yi did not last long. After a minute or two, he sidled back to Jin Yi's side and covered her with half of his blanket.
With silky blonde hair framing his face and a strong, warm chest beside him, Chen Xi couldn't help but smile. He reached out and hugged Jin Yi's waist happily, whispering, "Can I hold you while I sleep?"
"Um."
Upon hearing this, Chenxi obediently closed her eyes and said, "I will sleep well and won't disturb you."
After that, Chenxi did exactly as he had said, closing his eyes and trying to sleep without even moving his body.
Jin Yi quietly watched Chen Xi for several tens of minutes until she detected that Chen Xi's physiological state had entered sleep before closing her eyes and entering standby mode.
As the night deepened, about two hours later, Chenxi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.
He yawned slightly, remained in the awakened position for a while, then glanced at the time displayed in the room before his eyes widened involuntarily.
Wait, he only slept for two or three hours?
Chen Xi was also stunned. He couldn't help but fall into deep thought. So, did he sleep too much during the day? How did he wake up so quickly?
Feeling somewhat incredulous, Chen Xi turned his head to the side, then stopped, because he saw Jin Yi lying next to him and realized that he had only slept for two or three hours before waking up, so Jin Yi was probably still in standby mode.
I'm so curious about Jin Yi in standby mode.
Chen Xi held her breath and quietly leaned closer to look at Jin Yi, only to find that Jin Yi was just as asleep as usual.
It wasn't until Chen Xi accidentally touched Jin Yi's hair that she opened her eyes wide in surprise, realizing that Jin Yi was currently in standby mode.
In the past, whenever Chen Xi accidentally touched Jin Yi's hair, the strands of hair would wrap around him as if they had a mind of their own and would not easily let go. It was as if even the strands of hair would bully him. But just now when he touched Jin Yi's hair, the strands of hair lay there quietly without any reaction.
So, Jin Yi is unaware of the outside world while in standby mode?!
This guess excited Chen Xi. The fact that Jin Yi hadn't opened her eyes to look at him for so long made him even more certain of his guess. He knew that in the past, when Jin Yi accompanied him during his afternoon nap, no matter what time it was, Jin Yi would immediately open her eyes as soon as he woke up.
Knowing that Jin Yi was not aware of the outside world while in standby mode, Chen Xi immediately became bolder. He first stroked Jin Yi's smooth, silky hair a couple of times, indulging himself to the fullest. He was in a great mood, thinking, "Hmph, you used to pester me, but now you're obediently letting me touch you."
She leaned closer to look at Jin Yi, and the more she looked, the more she thought how handsome and good-looking Jin Yi was. She couldn't help but touch him with her hand and then kiss him.
In a flash, Chen Xi felt as if he had become a lecherous man, taking advantage of the beauty while she was unconscious. His behavior was as despicable as Yin Zhiping's defilement of Xiaolongnu. However, he and Jin Yi were legal partners, and Jin Yi had even said today that she would fulfill the next stage of their partnership obligations.
Thinking about the next stage of partner obligations, Chenxi couldn't help but blush. What else could be the next stage after kissing?
As a teenager who had only recently come of age, Chenxi was in a stage where he had the desire but not the courage to do so. In addition, Jin Yi's superhuman constitution made him breathless even when they kissed. Thinking about the next stage, Chenxi felt a little scared.
After all, not everyone has the courage to face a tireless electric motor.
However, Jin Yi is currently in a standby state without consciousness. Chen Xi looked at Jin Yi, who was like a sleeping beauty, and couldn't help but be tempted again. Why don't he explore her first?
Come to think of it, he hasn't even touched Jin Yi's abs yet.
Although Jin Yi, who usually likes to take off her clothes in front of him, is very willing to let him touch her, he is afraid that if he touches her when she is awake, he will actually go straight into the second stage of the partner's obligations, so he has not taken any action.
However, Jin Yi, who is currently in standby mode, is different. He has no idea what happened, so there is absolutely no risk for him to touch Jin Yi's abs.
Looking at the sleeping beauty lying on the bed, Chenxi's eyes grew brighter and brighter, and finally she slowly reached out her wicked little hand.
What Chen Xi didn't know was that Jin Yi, in standby mode, although he had stopped many of his bodily functions to allow himself to handle the affairs of the Intelligence Clan at the highest efficiency, was also at the point when he had the strongest control over the Intelligence Clan. At this time, as long as there was an Intelligence Clan network or device, he was omniscient and omnipotent.
So, when Chen Xi was in the Gear Clan's space base, in a room filled with various Gear Clan entertainment or other smart devices, Jin Yi sensed him almost the instant he woke up. Jin Yi then used dozens of sensors and cameras of all sizes scattered throughout the room to watch him from all angles.
