System, hurry up! Hand it over to the supermarket and hug the country's thigh
Chapter 506: Pretending to be old or young
Although Lu Xi didn't know when she became fond of sweet and sour pork ribs, seeing the sincerity of the system, she didn't hesitate to reach out and pick up a piece of ribs, put it in her mouth and took a bite.
"Well, it tastes good. The canteen's cooking skills are as good as always. Thank you, Ali baby."
There must be something wrong when things are abnormal, and what's more, the two of them are returning together, which must be a big deal.
Although Lu Xi was a little curious in her heart and wondered why the two little guys were so attentive today, she was too lazy to find out the reason now.
After all, he had been sleeping since mid-afternoon yesterday and had just woken up at noon. He hadn't eaten anything or drunk a sip of water, so his stomach felt very empty.
Lu Xi enjoyed most of the meal in silence, and finally felt that it was time to get down to business.
She put down her chopsticks, looked at the two friends opposite her tenderly, and asked softly, "Two little friends, I would like to ask, how old are you two this year?"
Although the question was asked in a strange way, Lu Xi would not be affected by strange topics and started the conversation casually.
This question stunned both of them. They looked at each other with confusion and puzzlement on their faces.
Because this question is really difficult to answer, because neither of them is a normal human being.
The system was silent for a while, as if trying to recall and calculate something, and finally spoke slowly: "Hmm... Well, actually, the time at the Administration is not completely synchronized with this side, so it is difficult to make an accurate conversion. However, what is certain is that I should not be very old."
He has always claimed that he is a freshman in the system, and he is really a freshman in the system, he is not lying.
Long Ruilin seemed even more hesitant. He hesitated for a long time before mustering up the courage to say, "I... um... actually I'm really young. If you count as a human, I'm only about six or seven years old."
After saying that, he stuffed the food into his mouth in silence and embarrassed.
Dragons have a long lifespan, and the process from infancy to adulthood is of course a long one. His current age is indeed equivalent to that of a five or six-year-old human child, and he is still a young cub in the group.
But if you really calculate the time, you have lived two or three times as long as Lu Xi.
Upon hearing this, Lu Xi smiled slightly and was not too surprised by their answer.
She continued to ask: "So, how old do you think you are in your heart?"
This question was much easier for the system. It answered without thinking: "I think I am about the same as you, at least mentally. I am very mature and an adult."
And my IQ is definitely higher than yours, hahahaha.
But the system didn't dare to say these last words at all.
He had just received his pocket money and it wasn’t even warm yet. He didn’t want the money to fly away, or he would have no place to cry.
Lu Xi nodded and turned her gaze to Long Ruilin: "What about Longlong? How old do you think you are mentally?"
Long Ruilin looked up at Lu Xi, blinking his big sparkling eyes as if to act cute, and then hesitantly said: "I... I'm still a child."
Be firm and unwavering, you are really a child, the mouth is on your body anyway, what you say is true.
Lu Xi uttered "oh" softly, and this time the sound was drawn out longer, with a hint of profound charm.
She seemed to be thinking about something, or waiting for something. The atmosphere in the whole room became subtle and complicated at this moment.
The two people who were asked were confused. After looking at each other again, they still saw confusion in each other's eyes.
I have no idea what my host/sister is up to. I was enjoying this meal originally, but now I am a little confused.
After listening to their conversation, Lu Xi already understood a little bit.
Of these two people, the youngest one pretends to be mature, while the oldest one pretends to be childish. The one pretending to be mature is actually the one with the least sense of privacy.
Perhaps it was because the two of them spent a long time together and got along so well with the cat, that even after the cat became a human, it still couldn't grasp the sense of propriety in getting along with humans.
But we can't go on like this now.
Lu Xi coughed lightly and was originally planning to speak directly, but when she saw that both of them stopped what they were doing because of her cough and looked at her with burning eyes, she felt a little embarrassed.
She smiled and said, "You two can continue eating. What I'm going to talk about is not a big deal, but it is indeed very important."
Seeing them pick up their chopsticks again, Lu Xi began to speak slowly, "Who opened the door and stuffed that screaming dinosaur doll into my room yesterday?"
The air seemed to freeze for a moment, and Long Ruilin immediately turned his gaze to the system. He had no idea that such a thing had happened before he took over the toy.
Then, the system reluctantly raised its hand and whispered, "It's me."
Originally, the dinosaur was framed after it wandered around the house, but now it seems that it was discovered long ago.
Otherwise, the host would not have asked so openly. The system still has some understanding of Lu Xi's thoughts.
Lu Xi nodded and continued, "Who suggested going to my room to wake me up today?"
The system's hand was still raised, and it said without hesitation: "It's me too."
I'm so tired, so let it be. My heart is full of confusion and I don't know what happened suddenly.
But there's nothing wrong with going into the room to wake people up. Isn't that what we did every day in the past?
Lu Xi sighed inwardly: As expected, it was always this system guy who started it all. It has never had a sense of boundaries and doesn't care about the privacy of her, the host, a living person.
It seems that I need to have a good talk with him about this issue.
"Comrade Ali," Lu Xi sighed helplessly and said earnestly, "Have you ever thought that your host is such a grown-up person, and you also need to pay attention to her privacy? For example, knocking on the door before entering the house, such small details are actually very important."
She really couldn't come up with any profound ideas, but it was still possible for her to talk about the matter and make it clear.
The system was slightly stunned when it heard this.
The system didn't expect Lu Xi to suddenly mention this matter.
But if you think about it carefully, this matter is indeed worth talking about.
I am no longer a kitten that can run around the house, but a little boy. I should pay attention to the difference between men and women and respect the privacy of my host who is already in his 20s.
"Oh, I understand." The system nodded quickly, with an apologetic smile on its tender little face. "I will pay attention next time. I'm really sorry. Next time when I wake you up, I will call or knock on the door. I will never go in directly. I promise!"
He raised his hands while speaking, and was just about to swear that he would be struck by lightning.
Although the courses that the system has learned have emphasized the need to respect and protect the privacy of the bound host, learning it does not mean that it is a rule and it does not necessarily have to be followed.
For example, every system bound to the host is mentally connected at the beginning. They can clearly know everything that the host is thinking, and can only be shut down when the host takes the initiative.
For example, when Lu Xi and the system communicated for the first time, after seeing the system's true form, Lu Xi complained that the system looked like purple glutinous rice balls in a hot pot.
As soon as that idea came out, it was immediately transmitted to the system, making the system furious.
As for the host privacy aspect that Lu Xi mentioned now, it all depends on the system's own decision.
Because the system has not transformed into a human form in most cases, the mode of getting along between the human-form system and the host is still being explored.
Therefore, the system has never paid attention to the things it needs to pay attention to when getting along with the host after it has a human form.
However, Lu Xi mentioned this issue - regarding the safe distance and special boundaries that should be maintained between the human and the host, the system felt that he should pay attention to this matter in the future.
In fact, after listening to Lu Xi's words just now, the system now feels a little regretful for its negligence. The two of them have been together for such a long time and have become accustomed to each other's sudden presence, but they didn't think there was anything wrong. They didn't expect that it had been somewhat offensive.
But now that it has been spoken out, we must change it. It is not too late to mend the situation.
The system solemnly decided that from now on, it would deeply imprint the idea of "gender differences" in its heart, and constantly remind itself that it is now a boy after turning into a human form. Although it is young, it still needs to be careful when interacting with the host, a young girl in her twenties.
Make a system that can handle distance.
Even Long Ruilin, who was sitting next to them, couldn't help but fall into his own thoughts after hearing Lu Xi's words.
He seemed to have never paid attention to this problem.
After meeting Lu Xi, he has always been treated as a child. Gradually, he also wanted to enjoy the fun of being a child during this period of time, especially after coming to this plane, he was treated as a fragile child by many people.
Recalling the scene when he first arrived, he found that the customs of the people in this world are actually quite open. Hugging, cuddling and touching little heads, these simple body movements are common among relatives and friends. However, he did not think too much about it at the time and calmly accepted this fact.
After all, in the world of cultivation, he has seen all kinds of people, some are old-fashioned and conservative, while others are more open-minded than this world.
Therefore, he also made his own changes in this society, step by step, and slowly adapted.
Long Ruilin had never thought that he would be reminded like now to keep a certain distance from others and pay attention to his personal privacy.
Now, when Lu Xi suddenly brought it up, he suddenly realized that no matter in which world, the difference between men and women has always existed.
Although I am young now, I shouldn't enter the room without someone's consent.
As she thought about it, her little face turned red and she felt a little embarrassed.
Lu Xi looked at the system and Long Ruilin who were lost in thought in front of her, and couldn't help feeling a little relieved.
It seems that what I said was very timely. They have begun to think about and pay attention to problems that they had not paid much attention to before.
This is really a good start. From now on, I don’t have to suddenly see people in the house early in the morning. Maybe I can sleep in.
"Okay, I've finished what I want to say, and I'm almost done with my meal." Lu Xi stood up with a smile, ready to leave, "I'll leave first, you guys take your time eating."
The system was suddenly brought back to reality by this voice, and he subconsciously shouted, "Ah, host, walk slowly!"
But then he thought of something and quickly changed his words, "No, no, don't leave! I haven't even seen the spear I said I'd make for you."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Long Ruilin suddenly remembered that this was another important purpose for him to call Lu Xi over.
As he spoke, he took out a spear from his space, which he had just refined this morning.
From the appearance, this spear is quite good, with smooth lines, a straight gun body, and a chilling feeling.
But in terms of materials, it is not very good. After all, with Long Ruilin's current strength, he is unable to control those precious materials.
Moreover, it was refined this morning, so it was a bit rushed, but fortunately he made full use of his existing strength, and the quality of the product is quite good.
When Lu Xi saw the dark spear floating in front of her, she exclaimed, "Wow, are you guys serious?"
She originally thought that giving her the weapon was just to comfort her or to make her happy or to entertain her because of what happened last night, but she didn't expect that Long Ruilin actually made a spear.
At that moment, Lu Xi was moved, and a vivid and special picture involuntarily emerged in her mind.
In the picture, Long Ruilin has a serious expression on his face. Although he is only one meter tall, he bravely steps on the high stool, like a brave warrior standing at the top of the battlefield.
He held a huge hammer tightly in both hands. The hammer was taller than he was, but the weight seemed to be nothing to him. His movements were steady and powerful.
Next to the blazing fire, he was hammering a red-hot iron rod intently.
Every blow of the hammer was accompanied by flying sparks and rolling heat waves, as if cheering for his efforts and persistence.
Long Ruilin stared at the fiery red iron rod with a firm and focused look. It seemed as if he had poured all his heart and soul into the thing in front of him.
