Chapter 7: Taste
Huihui smiled broadly. "The S19 series optical computers are equipped with the latest Bandai system. Their operating speed and StarNet roaming speed are twice that of the S18 series... They offer a more interactive experience... The holographic immersion has increased by 60%..."
Yu Zhi was confused by what she heard. She didn't even understand how to use this extremely ancient optical computer that her original body had.
But anyway, just know that the new one is better.
After Huihui finished the introduction, Yu Yao carefully looked at Yu Zhi's expression. Seeing that she was just a little confused and not showing any rejection, he felt relieved.
"Let's buy two." Yu Yao said, "One for her and one for me."
Gray's eyes turned into happy wavy shapes. "Okay! Please pick the color you like."
Dozens of different colors appeared on its display, with a custom option at the very end.
Yu Yao decisively chose the classic silver-gray color, while Yu Zhi opted for the more conventional silver-white. After checking out, Hui Hui quickly brought over the laptops they had purchased.
"Let's change it here," Yu Yao unpacked the computer, "it will transfer the data faster."
He was the first to demonstrate by taking off the old optical computer in his hand and sticking it to the interface sensor on Huihui's body, and then sticking the newly bought S19 to the other end.
The data transfer progress appeared on Huihui's face, and the transfer was completed in about thirty seconds.
Yu Zhi also followed his example, took off the antique light computer from her wrist, and placed it on the sensor.
"Ding—the model doesn't match." Huihui said apologetically, "It's a third-generation product. Please use the embedded interface."
Yu Yao quickly picked up the third-generation optical computer and said, "Oh, I didn't even notice the model number. It's okay, just plug it in here."
He was about to switch to the embedded interface when a message suddenly popped up on the computer in his hand.
Jiang He: [Zhizhi, how are you doing now? If you have time, let's go out and have dinner together.]
Yu Yao didn't mean to see her personal information, and he immediately handed the laptop back to Yu Zhi. However, his eyesight was too good, and the information passed through his mind in an instant.
Yu Zhi replied calmly: [It's fine. I may not have time recently, I'll talk to you when I'm free.]
Jiang He quickly replied: [Okay.]
"Are we friends?" Yu Yao asked tentatively after seeing that she had replied to the message.
The other person's name was obviously a man's, but he called her Zhizhi affectionately. Yu Yao couldn't help but worry that his sister was being deceived.
But the name Jiang He seems familiar...
Yu Zhi didn't know about his worries. After handing the laptop back to Yu Yao, she explained obediently, "Well, it's the brother I met on Planet 845. He helped me a lot. He's currently studying at the Central Military Academy."
Yu Yao suddenly realized, no wonder he felt familiar.
Jiang He is quite famous in the Central Military Academy. He was the only member of the previous class who came from a grassroots background but squeezed into the league team because of his extremely high talent.
Due to the monopoly of resources and the inheritance of innate bloodlines, it is difficult for high-level extraordinary people to appear among civilians.
The probability of an SSS-level transcendent coming from an inferior star like Jiang He is one in a billion.
Yu Yao also noticed the intimacy and trust that naturally showed on Yu Zhi's face when she mentioned Jiang He, and he couldn't help feeling a little jealous.
"Were you always called Zhizhi before?" He felt that this name seemed closer than Xiaozhi. "Can I call you that too?"
Yu Zhi's cheeks flushed slightly, and her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible: "Of course."
Fortunately, Yu Yao had sharp ears and clearly caught the girl's barely perceptible agreement and the joy hidden in her tone.
"Zhizhi." Yu Yao smiled, and the same dimples as Yu Zhi appeared on his delicate face.
The transmission speed of Yu Zhi's old optical computer was slower, and it took about five minutes to complete.
After confirming that the data was correct, the old computer should have been left to Huihui for recycling, but Yu Zhi kept it because she was reluctant to do so. After all, it belonged to the original owner and had been with her for so many years.
It was getting late, and the two of them had to go home to have dinner with Yu Ji and Li Shurong.
"Are you hungry?" Yu Yao asked with concern.
They had brunch before leaving, and now their stomachs were empty.
Yu Zhi nodded honestly: "I'm hungry."
Her stomach growled in response.
Seeing the embarrassed look on Yu Zhi's face, Yu Yao's beautiful almond-shaped eyes lit up with a smile, and he reached out to hold her: "Let's go home and have dinner."
*
When they returned to the Yu family garage, Yu Ji and Li Shurong had not returned yet, but there was another black and gold hover car inside.
Yu Zhi quickly recalled that this should be Wei Yuan's car.
Wei Yuan is the youngest marshal in the history of the Federation. Relying on his super-powerful SSS-level spiritual body, the Golden Lion, he has made five historic military achievements for the Federation.
Although he is of a high generation, he is only 32 years old now. In this interstellar age where people become adults at the age of 20, can get married at the age of 24, and have an average life expectancy of 150, Wei Yuan is still considered a young man.
Yu Yao also noticed the extra car in the garage and said excitedly, "Brother Wei Yuan is here!"
He parked the car impatiently and jumped off without stepping on the extension platform.
However, his sister's importance in his heart has increased now. Although Yu Yao was anxious, he still waited for Yu Zhi to come down before going home.
As soon as I reached the door, the garage door opened from inside.
The man had thick blond hair, bronze skin brimming with savagery, and a face as sharp and angular as a figure from ancient Greek mythology. He was tall, yet one could easily sense the immense energy contained within the tight muscles beneath his military uniform.
"Brother Wei Yuan!" Yu Yao called him happily, then asked doubtfully, "Are you leaving? Aren't you staying for dinner?"
Wei Yuan's stern face softened slightly: "No, I have something else to do."
Yu Yao was obviously disappointed: "Okay, then goodbye, Brother Wei Yuan."
Yu Zhi also shouted crisply: "Goodbye, Brother Wei Yuan."
Wei Yuan finally realized what was going on.
A rare look of confusion appeared on his usually calm and dignified face. He could not connect the well-behaved and lovely girl in front of him with the previous "Yu Zhi" with a bad temper and eye-catching dress.
Yu Yao naturally understood why Wei Yuan had such an expression. He didn't want to explain in front of Yu Zhi, but he also didn't want Wei Yuan to still be prejudiced against his sister.
"Zhizhi, you should go back first." Yu Yao opened the door for her. "I want to talk to Brother Wei Yuan for a while."
Yu Zhi nodded sensibly and went back to the house first.
"Brother Wei Yuan," Yu Yao spoke hesitantly after seeing her come in, "It's just... Zhizhi... is actually very nice."
"Before, it was just her behavior that hadn't changed for a while, and it was also because we didn't pay attention to her psychology. But now I have communicated with her and cleared up the previous misunderstanding."
Wei Yuan listened to Yu Yao's words thoughtfully and nodded slightly: "I understand."
He had met "Yu Zhi" several times before, and almost every time she left him with a very bad impression.
For Wei Yuan, who always maintains order, the instability and uncontrollability of "Yu Zhi" is as unbearable as a mysophobia patient seeing an indelible black stain on the white wall of his home. He starts to have a headache when he sees "Yu Zhi".
But Wei Yuan was not in a position to interfere in the Yu family's affairs, and the extraordinary people had to regularly care for and accompany the matched healers, so he had to find ways to deliberately avoid "Yu Zhi".
It was only after he learned that Yu Zhi was not at home today that he took the time to come and see Yu Yi, making up for the time he had missed in her company due to being away for a long time. Unexpectedly, he ran into her when he was leaving.
But Yu Zhi seemed to have become sensible and understanding?
