Ding Xiaoyu replied "Okay" without any emotional fluctuation, remaining extremely calm.
Yu Xi: ...This is not what I expected!
Ding Xiaoyu didn't deliberately cultivate, so he reached the end of his life before he was 120 years old. Having lived to that age, he had experienced everything and couldn't possibly be as impulsive as a young person.
"My medicine caused a problem?" Yu Xi's indifferent expression crumbled. "How did she become like this?!"
He scratched his head and stormed out, locking himself in the basement laboratory, and sternly ordered the servants not to disturb him.
Ding Xiaoyu slowly stood up and began to look around the room. This should be the second floor of the building. The room was almost entirely decorated in white, which looked rather cold and aloof. The only black item was a piano from a brand he liked.
The chains binding him extended just to the balcony, allowing him an unobstructed view of the scenery outside the window.
The trees here resemble a primeval jungle, but from his perspective, the tall trees intertwine and create a secluded environment.
At noon, servants also brought lunch.
"Where is your young lady?" Ding Xiaoyu asked the maid who brought the food.
"I cannot inquire about my master's affairs," the servant replied indifferently.
Ding Xiaoyu was speechless. Did she really enjoy being the hostess?
"I just want you to remind her to eat on time," Ding Xiaoyu said earnestly.
Now the servants were speechless. Who would care if their captor was eating?
"Yes," the servant bowed and withdrew.
These past few days, Ding Xiaoyu has been eating and drinking as usual, and doing nothing but reading and practicing the piano. She seems quite relaxed and doesn't feel uncomfortable at all, as if she were being confined.
After many experiments, Yu Xi finally came to the conclusion that the problem lay with Ding Xiaoyu, not with her.
However, seeing that this person was adapting well on the monitor screen, she suddenly felt like teasing him.
"Yu Xiaoxi, you can't be like this, calm down, calm down." Yu Xi began to mutter to herself.
"There are plenty of fish in the sea, and forced love is never sweet. This is work. For the safety of spacetime, for the future of those with superpowers, and for the survival of the Yu family, I cannot indulge in male beauty."
"Besides, he doesn't remember me either." Yu Xi said somewhat dejectedly, suppressing the flutter in her heart, and left the laboratory.
"Master, apart from asking about your condition once a day, the person upstairs hasn't shown any unusual energy fluctuations, hasn't left that room, and hasn't broken free of the chains," the servant who brought Ding Xiaoyu's meal respectfully reported to Yu Xi.
Yu Xi gave a cold "Oh." She could see all of this through the monitor, but there was no sound. It turned out that the one sentence they said every day was a question to her.
Was the antidote for restoring superpowers ineffective? Or was he hiding his true strength? She humiliated him so much; shouldn't a normal person leave immediately after regaining their powers? Or at least retaliate? Why did he do that?
According to the information, Wang Dadong is highly capable but impulsive, making him a poor choice. Wang Yase has a bad personality and the uncertainty of having the Sword in the Stone also makes him an unsuitable candidate.
Only Ding Xiaoyu, whose explosive power and strength are no less than the other two, is calm, collected, and has a clear and rational mind, making him the most suitable research subject.
But he was too calm! Or perhaps, she didn't provide enough stimulation?
——
How are you feeling?
Yu Xi hadn't shown up for a long time, and the first thing she asked about was his health.
His body is certainly in good condition, and his combat power before death has been restored to his current body, but he doesn't need to tell her, does he?
"It's very nice, thank you for your hospitality, Miss," Ding Xiaoyu said.
"Yu Xi, the Yu in Phoenix Soaring, and Xi in Radiant Splendor," Yu Xi explained.
"Hello, Ms. Yu Xi, I guess I don't need to introduce myself?" Ding Xiaoyu asked.
