Zhan Lichuan quietly gave out a command from his brainwaves and the robot immediately picked up a folded blanket, placing it on Zhan Lichuan in order to cover his body.
When Jing Qian saw how smoothly the robot was moving, practically like an actual human, Jing Qian couldn’t help but grab the robot with her hands.
“Move.”
An emotionless voice came out from the robot, shocking Jing Qian with the cold tone that it scolded her with.
At that moment, Jing Qian’s eyes were glowing with interest.
If she got scolded by someone else, Jing Qian would have pounced on that person, trying to kill whoever it was. However, this time, she turned and looked at Zhan Lichuan with a shining look in her eyes.
“This is so cool! It has emotions and preferences?!”
Then, Jing Qian immediately turned to the robot and asked, “Why did you scold me though? I’m so pretty, don’t you like me?”
The robot was created based on Zhan Lichuan’s figure, which was why the robot was much taller than Jing Qian. She was looking at the robot with her neck stretched backwards, and the person who was seductively charming before this suddenly turned into a cute, naive-looking woman.
However, the look that she had in her eyes while staring at the robot was exactly how a monster looked at Tang Shanzhang**.
Zhan Lichuan didn’t even notice that as he stared at Jing Qian acting this way, his eyes overflowing with happiness.
The emotionless tone of the robot appeared once again, “You touched my hand. I hate getting touched by others.”
“This is a robot with OCD!”
Jing Qian was in love with this robot. This was because in her previous life, she owned a robot to accompany her as well. However, that robot that she bought was acting as if its brains were hampered, and she didn’t like it very much.
Now that she finally found one that was exactly what she always wanted, and with such temperament, Jing Qian was over the moon.
“Where did you buy this robot? I want one as well!” Jing Qian looked at Zhan Lichuan, her peach-blossom glistening and shining at him.
Since the robot’s hands were touched, it didn’t properly place the blanket on Zhan Lichuan, and as a medical professional, Jing Qian casually pulled the blanket and made sure that it completely covered Zhan Lichuan’s body.
He was still a patient after all. The toxins in his body weren’t completely cleared and it would be bad for his surgery in the future if he contracted pneumonia from a cold.
However, before Zhan Lichuan could say anything, the arrogant and bad-tempered robot opened its mouth,
“Hmph, stupid woman. I’m one of a kind. You want to buy another me? Do you even deserve it?”
Jing Qian’s eyes widened as she got scolded by the robot and looked towards Zhan Lichuan, who hadn’t said a single thing to her since she walked into the room.
She asked with that questionable confidence of hers, where she thought that the other person would definitely answer her, “What’s up with your robot? Why does it have such a …. Characteristic temper?”
Zhan Lichuan, who was looking at Jing Qian’s face the entire time, naturally replied to her without any hesitation when he heard the question.
“I was the one who set… Its character.”
He initially wanted to reply, “Just like me,” but he stopped himself when he remembered that Jing Qian had been getting scolded by the robot ever since she walked in but she was also the one who gave him a massage last night and she even saved his life. Although he no longer wanted to be alive, he didn’t really feel like dying before knowing who the real culprit behind all of this was.
Facing his savior, Zhan Lichuan felt that he should at least maintain basic manners and etiquette. He immediately changed the words that he was about to say, just so that this little girl wouldn’t be saddened by his words.
Well, who would have expected that Jing Qian would complement him instead?
“That’s cool!”
She wanted a robot just like this, which was cool and loyal. It would only serve her and would simply ignore everyone else. If anyone were to touch it, the robot would be able to roast them. It would be perfect if the robot even knew how to fight.
