"He's asleep."

It was eleven o'clock at night, Xia Xi had already stood with Meng Xincheng outside Gu Jianan's bedroom door for half an hour, and said this sentence several times.It was only this time that Meng Xincheng seemed to have only heard it, and finally moved his feet and walked out, saying at the same time: "Help me protect him."

"no problem."

15 minutes later, Meng Xincheng came to Lu Qing's laboratory, but when he entered, there was only Lu Chengye inside. Seeing Meng Xincheng entering, Lu Chengye only turned his face and glanced, frowning, and sighed softly.Meng Xincheng expected that things would be difficult.

"Where's Uncle Lu?" As soon as Meng Xincheng asked, he heard Lu Qing's high-pitched voice from far to near. It was rare to hear Lu Qing speak so loudly, obviously he was on fire at the moment.He turned his head and looked over, and saw Lu Qing striding in. His originally delicate face was flushed and distorted at the moment. He turned his head and said to the back as he walked, "Slap your swollen face to pretend to be fat, what should you do now! What did you do before? ah?"

"Why didn't you discuss it with me at the beginning, maybe there are other better ways." Lu Qing has always been kind, and there is only one person who can make him speak in this tone.Sure enough, Lu Zhengting walked in behind him, suppressed his anger and said in a low voice, "That's the only way! Otherwise, you'll just watch him die."

What he said was not wrong, Lu Qing felt helpless, when he entered the door and saw Meng Xincheng, he calmed down his anger and said in a calmer tone: "Xincheng is here."

As early as when the car crashed, Meng Xincheng synchronously transmitted the images and data captured by his eyes back to the laboratory.So there is no need to explain further at the moment, Meng Xincheng put the half of the mechanical finger on the table: "Uncle Lu, after my preliminary analysis, the material used for this finger is basically the same as the material used on my body. After a short contact , I think his system program is more advanced than mine. He is a super-simulation robot with the same appearance as a real person. He was born for fighting and should not be produced in China. This robot was finally taken away by another group of people. These people have a milder attitude towards me, but I feel more difficult to deal with."

"I see." Lu Qing patted Meng Xincheng's shoulder, a little pity and guilt, he pondered for a while before continuing, "Xincheng, you know that you not only had to overcome technical difficulties in the transformation, but also considered financial issues Except for the 100 million you set aside for Jianan, all of your net worth was invested in, but it was far from enough. Fortunately, you have the help of Uncle Lu, but the initial investment and follow-up maintenance are constantly throwing money in, and you know I don't hear what's going on outside the window, maybe I've been too hard on him..."

"Lu Qing..." Lu Zhengting stretched his entire face when he heard this, and was about to say something more, but Lu Qing rolled his eyes over him, and he obediently kept his mouth shut.

Lu Qing pondered for a moment before speaking again: "You... are now jointly owned by the Lufeng Group and the foreign Love Group...Love's problems are easy to solve, and the other group of people you just mentioned...we can't afford to offend them. Don't dare to offend."

Meng Xincheng was silent for a moment and said: "Uncle Lu, I probably guessed what was going on before. I have always been very grateful to Uncle Lu for his support. Anyway, it is the best thing for me to live now, and I have the ability to solve the problem. Of course, if Not paying the price of freedom, that's the best outcome."

Lu Chengye, who had been silent all this time, let out a chuckle: "I'm afraid it won't be as you wish."

"Don't be so weird." Lu Qing stepped forward and slapped him on the back of the head, "Admit well that you are also worried about dying?"

"What am I worried about? Anyway, I can guess the final result." Lu Chengye rubbed his head and looked helplessly at Meng Xincheng, "Either you take Gu Jianan abroad, or you stay and wait to be... …The higher-ups have incorporated it.” When he said this, everyone was silent, and he continued after a while: “Let’s not say what the higher-ups will keep you for, but they may not approve of your relationship with Gu Jianan at all. I know that you will definitely not go abroad to be used by others. Even if you lose your freedom, you have to work for your own country."

"Alas..." Lu Zhengting sighed deeply before saying, "Xincheng, I'm afraid you have only one way to go right now. Someone has contacted me today. You know that we transform people into robots privately. No matter what you say Illegal. The higher authorities want to do us, but we are basically helpless. And the problem of the Love Group may be solved most quickly and effectively by them.”

There is no way to refute it, the fact is overwhelming.Meng Xincheng took a look at the instrument that extended his life, and he has no turning back when he gets here.His wish is to accompany Gu Jianan through a successful but perhaps not amazing life, but his special status does not allow him to be too simple.But he looks powerful, but if he leaves this laboratory, he will become a pile of scrap iron within a few days.

"Uncle Lu, I'm sorry to bother you today." Meng Xincheng said as he walked up to the equipment and stood up.When the superalloy hose was connected to his body, he was thinking that neither a human nor a robot could escape the helplessness of the world.

It was already one o'clock in the morning when we got home, and when Meng Xincheng entered, he saw Xia Xi setting up a shelf in the living room and painting watercolors.A few days ago, he asked Meng Xincheng to implant a painting tutorial in his mind. For a robot, it is not difficult to do many things, but Xia Xi still looks excited and looking forward to progress.Sometimes Meng Xincheng feels that Xia Xi lives like a person than him, just like Gu Jianan before.The most vivid time in Meng Xincheng was given to him by Gu Jianan, and without Gu Jianan, he was immediately pushed into the loneliness of the past, struggling hard.

The first time they blushed was also because of painting. At that time, the two had been together for more than two months, and Meng Xincheng was always in a state of sweetness and anxiety.He was worried every day that he said the wrong thing, afraid that Gu Jianan would find him boring, and sometimes he would be at a loss. He hated himself for being like this, but he couldn't give up the sweetness that Xiao had wanted for a long time, even though he was not good in every way. I also want to suppress my inferiority complex and go to Gu Jianan.But this kind of initiative also has a distance. Meng Xincheng is always weighing whether the scale of approaching Gu Jianan is appropriate and whether it will cause trouble to him, so he always appears cautious and clumsy.Guessing minds is the thing he is least good at, so when he was anxious and hesitant, when he knew that Han You, who was in the dormitory, was pursuing a girl in Gu Jianan's class, he was very helpful and actively offered advice.The purpose is only to know how Gu Jianan is feeling that day, how much he is wearing, whether he has an umbrella, whether he has eaten lunch, these seemingly trivial things can completely control his mood swings.

And his uncharacteristically proactive attitude also made the classmates in the dormitory change their impression of him being cold and ruthless in the past.And after knowing his purpose, he showed extraordinary respect and sincere blessings. After all, without such a strong opponent, whether he can pursue the girl he likes or not, the chances will always increase.Besides, there is one more all-round laborer, so why not do it.

So one day when Han You was setting up the venue for their design department's cultural activities, Meng Xincheng was called by him to be a free labor force after his girlfriend suddenly called him out to buy clothes.When Han You left, he repeatedly promised that he would be back in two hours to paint the posters. After all, the activity started at [-]:[-] the next morning, so it had to be finished tonight.But Meng Xincheng didn't see Han You back after finishing all the other tasks assigned to him.The other students in the venue finished their work and went to dinner. Meng Xincheng was a little helpless. He didn't have a mobile phone, and he couldn't contact Han You, and he couldn't draw, so he was a little helpless for this work.

After Meng Xincheng finished all the aftermath work in the venue, Han You also failed to come back.It was already nine o'clock in the evening, and the first thing he thought of was not being angry at Han You for not keeping the agreement, but that the unfinished posters must have a great impact on their cultural activities, and Han You might lose his job in the Student Union.

At 09:30, Han You's classmate finally brought him a message, asking Meng Xincheng to help him finish the poster. It turned out that Han You's girlfriend had a sudden appendicitis and went to the hospital, and he couldn't make it back.Meng Xincheng was hungry and reflected on his stupidity, and felt at a loss.

For a moment, Meng Xincheng thought about asking Gu Jianan for help. He knew that Gu Jianan had been drawing since elementary school, but firstly, he could not contact him without a mobile phone, and secondly, he was a little afraid of causing trouble for Gu Jianan, and also afraid that Gu Jianan would know why he wanted to help Han You He was so busy, he felt embarrassed when he thought that Gu Jianan would know.

But he was destined to be embarrassed. When Gu Jianan walked in angrily with a lunch box, Meng Xincheng had just finished watching the watercolor painting tutorial, and was about to carefully paint on the paper with a brush. Seeing Gu Jianan, he shivered in fright, almost Just ruined the whole painting.

Gu Jianan looked down at him without saying a word, while Meng Xincheng sat on the small bench and looked up at him, swallowing guiltily: "Why are you here?"

"Don't talk to me until you finish eating." Gu Jianan put the packed meal on the stool next to him, waved him away, picked up the palette and paintbrush, meditated for a few seconds, and then started to color.

Meng Xincheng felt the shyness and warmth that he had never felt before. When he was at a loss, the person he liked suddenly appeared to help, and his whole body seemed to be full of light.He hastily ate a few mouthfuls of rice and then put the lunch box aside. He was too hungry and couldn't eat any more, and now he didn't have the heart to eat at all. The back view of Gu Jianan's painting had already occupied all his thoughts.

When she put down her paintbrush and turned her head, Gu Jianan was still pretending to be angry, but when she saw Meng Xincheng obediently sitting on the small bench behind him and blinking at him with adoration, she couldn't hold back immediately.He dragged the bench and moved over to sit opposite Meng Xincheng, forced the corners of his mouth to curl up and said viciously, "Why didn't you tell me to help?"

"I...it's too late, I don't want to trouble you." Meng Xincheng murmured for a long time before saying this, but he didn't expect that he was slapped on the leg just after he finished speaking.

"who am I to you?"

"what?"

"Say!"

"……Boy friend."

"You still know? So asking me to help is troublesome!" Gu Jianan raised her hand and squeezed Meng Xincheng's face, "Tell me, do you think I'm an outsider?"

"no!"

Meng Xincheng was pinched so hard that he pouted and shook his head in denial, but Gu Jianan was a little too forceful, so he didn't shake his head too much.The eyes were a little wet from anxiety, and the mouth unconsciously repeated the "no" mouth shape, which looked like a fish spitting bubbles.Gu Jianan became cute in an instant, and kissed her pouting mouth as her heart moved.But the kiss was very short, Meng Xincheng withdrew before he started to understand it carefully, and let go of his hand at the same time.Before he could feel lost, Meng Xincheng felt that Gu Jianan held up his hand and put something in the palm of his hand. He looked down and saw that it was a mobile phone.

"For you. Want to know what I'm thinking? Want to ask me out for dinner? Want to care about me anytime, anywhere? Just come to me! What are you doing in such a big circle, remember, we are talking, love, love!"

Meng Xincheng arched his index finger and rubbed the tip of his nose, his face was also a little hot.

Gu Jianan got up and slowly moved to Meng Xincheng's lap, put his arms around his neck and whispered in his ear: "I really want you to trouble me, I want to find evidence that you like me, but I always feel that you are far away from me. I like Little girls worry about gains and losses, and are afraid that we are not real when we are together. I think the first person who thinks of you is me when you are in trouble. When you are depressed, you first seek comfort from me, and the joy of thinking about you is the first to share with me. I'm particularly afraid that I'm useless to you, dispensable, I even think that God will suddenly give me superpowers, become the unique person around you, and be able to remove all troubles and sorrows for you..."

Meng Xincheng didn't let him continue, but hugged him tightly.It turned out that Gu Jianan was in the same mood as him, and he was afraid that if Gu Jianan continued to speak, he would burst into tears in embarrassment because he was moved.

From that day on, Meng Xincheng was no longer timid, he accepted the mobile phone Gu Jianan gave him, he also received Gu Jianan's love, and returned the love to him with confidence and heart.
