613: Introducing Cutie

1"He- He- He!"0

Xie Qingyan found herself stuttering, her eyes about to fall out of their orbit as she stared at the robot in front of her.

Jinqian grabbed onto one of Cutie's arms and introduced it to her mother and brother.

"This is the robot that Ah Chuan built for me. I named it Cutie. What do you think? Isn't it cute?!"

Cute? Was there any difference between the man and this robot?

Seeing the look in Zhan Li- Cutie's eyes, Xie Qingyan was flabbergasted.

"He isn't human?" 

Di Yunmo asked the question that Xie QIngyan had on her mind.

"It has a heartbeat." 

Xie Qingyan said the most important thing.

Then, Jinqian rolled up his sleeve and showed it to them.

"Not only does it have a heartbeat, but it is also warm as well. It even has veins, arteries, and skin, but…"

Jinqian took out her phone and threw it off the balcony. As soon as she let go of it, Cutie was able to react within 0.1 seconds, immediately reaching out his arm.

As Cutie stretched its arm till it was a few meters longer than its original size, they could see that the black particles on its arms were similar to Zhan Lichuan's wheelchair. 

Xie Qingyan and Di Yunmo finally believed the fact that this was indeed just a robot.

"It… Can change its shape?"

"Of course. It can change into any sort of shape and size, just like Ah Chuan's wheelchair. In fact, Ah Chuan's wheelchair is already a robot on its own, but Cutie took the shape of a human and is not suitable for shapeshifting."

"I can turn into any shape that you want as long as I remove my 'skin.' If that's what you want, I can do it now," Cutie said to Jinqian.

"No, no… You are already nicely dressed today. Don't ruin your 'skin' as well." 

Jinqian immediately objected to the suggestion.

"Alright. Whatever you want."

Seeing how Cutie was extremely obedient towards Jinqian, in addition to that beautiful face and artificial intelligence system, Xie Qingyan was shocked and envious of Jinqian.

She pulled Jinqian to a corner and asked, "My dear, if… Do you think that Ah Chuan would build me one if I asked him to?"

"He is your son-in-law and you're his mother-in-law. Just get him to build you one when he's free."

Zhan Lichuan and her marriage was indeed just a business deal in the beginning, and her parents may still be thinking that they could easily take her back with a large sum of money. They may not bring this up now, but as a parent, they would have had these thoughts.

Therefore, since she had already decided to stay with him for the next 5 years, she thought that it would be nice for him to do something for them now.

"What about me? Little sister, since we're so close, can you get him to build one for me as well?"

Jinqian looked towards Di Yunmo's eyes, which were filled with excitement, and gently nodded her head. 

She answered in a coquettish manner, "I'll try asking him. It should be alright."

Then, Jinqian brought Cutie back to its original spot.

When Jinqian got back in the conversation, she broke the cold, stern atmosphere that was between Di Jingxuan, Master Zhan, and Zhan Lichuan.

When Di Jingxuan saw another 'Zhan Lichuan,' he raised his eyebrows.

When Xie Qingyan was done telling her husband about Cutie, Di Jingxuan looked at Zhan Lichuan curiously.

"I have seen something similar in AO2, but back then, their company was at the research and development stage with the robots."
