Chapter 737: Can You Help ?
Even though his head felt swollen and he could hardly think straight right now, he could still recall what he had said to Luan that day.
Because he had no idea how to face such an emotional Luan, he proposed that they should take so ti to calm down first. He had even kindly offered his office for Luan. Who could have guessed that... Luan would twist the aning of his words and assud that he did not want to see him anymore?
His head pounded even harder the more he thought about it. Oh God... this was why he had never involved himself emotionally with other people despite already being in his thirties. They might think that he was an ultra workaholic who only had his career in mind – and to a certain degree, they were right. But it was more because he had seen and researched too much in order to create those cheesy and ridiculous simulation plots.
He had seen countless people lose their mind due to the so-called love. Because of this single emotion, even the most cool-headed person could beco a ssy wreck. It was like ’love’ was nothing but chaotic bugs which corrupted not only soone’s EQ but their IQ as well. They beca a jumbled nervous ss as they tried to interpret every single word coming from their crush, dissecting it part by part to spot any hidden aning – despite there being nothing at all.
And that was exactly what happened to Luan right now.
Why does love always make soone turn stupid?
Luan was supposed to be his greatest masterpiece, the most perfect and sophisticated artificial intelligence that ever graced the surface of Earth. But look at what kind of ss he had gotten himself into...
Dr. Feng pursed his lips, upset. He looked at Luan’s miserable state and could not help but heave a frustrated sigh. "I was giving you so ti to cool your head, not that I don’t want to see you, okay?" he elaborated word by word, trying to emphasize that he really ant it in the literal sense. Then he grumbled under his breath, slightly annoyed. "Why the hell am I explaining this to you? How stupid..."
Luan’s gaze snapped to him in surprise. A brilliant gleam flickered from the depth of his pupils, making those fathomless eyes look startlingly bright. His entire person suddenly regained its vigor and beca full of life. It was like seeing the first rise of the sun after a long period of darkness.
Why did he look like soone who had just been granted amnesty? Dr. Feng thought, amused yet vexed at the sa ti. "If I hadn’t said anything, would you have hid from
until the end of the ti?" He asked in a jest.
"Mn," Luan nodded seriously. "If you don’t want
anymore, I will make myself scarce. But do you really... an what you said?"
There seed to be sothing wrong with the way Luan worded himself... Unfortunately, Dr. Feng’s head was still spinning and he could not afford to do an in-depth analysis of his system’s emotional fluctuation right now. His mind drew blank at Luan’s question. "What did I say?"
"That one..." Luan’s stare was almost burning a hole through his face as he repeated Dr. Feng’s words with the exact sa pause and punctuation as though he had committed everything into mory. "’...not that I don’t want to see you’ aning that... you want to see ?"
"Ah, yeah..." Dr. Feng answered in a distracted manner. He leaned bonelessly against the sofa and peered up at Luan through a half-lidded gaze. It seed like the alcohol had loosened his brain-to-mouth filter because he found himself becoming a chatterbox. His tone was sullen as if he was venting all of his frustration and grievance these past few days. "It’s weird not seeing you in the office. Do you know how many tis I have made a simple mistake because I couldn’t concentrate at all? It’s all your fault!"
Luan’s breath ceased sharply, a stark contrast to his heart that beat even louder and faster. He knew that this man was drunk and there was a huge possibility that he was not even aware of what he was saying, but... he just could not help it. He could not help but indulge in this wishful thinking that Dr. Feng had missed his presence. Just like how he could not resist secretly watching over this man from afar just to soothe the aching yearning in his soul.
These past few days, he had had a lot of ti to think and ponder on his mistake. He realized that forcing Dr. Feng to accept his feelings so suddenly might not be a good thing, after all he had seen for himself how detached Dr. Feng was toward anything pertaining to relationships.
Hence, Luan made up his mind that... if this man wanted him to beco a perfect system, then he would. If this man wanted him to never utter the word ’love’ ever again, then he would not bring it up ever again. As long as he was allowed to stay by Dr. Feng’s side, then... he was willing to transform himself into whatever the man wanted him to.
"Then... I will continue to stay here, by your side." He shifted a bit closer and reached out a hand to smooth the wayward strand of hair on Dr. Feng’s head, his gaze was imnsely gentle and joyful. "Is that okay?"
Dr. Feng was stunned by the gentle caress on his head. It sent numbness throughout his scalp and made his spine tingle. He leaned back by reflex and shot Luan with a displeased look. "Just do whatever you want. Why do you keep asking ?"
After saying that, his gaze zeroed in on Luan’s broad palm. Then taking Luan off guard, he suddenly grabbed onto the man that was still hanging in midair. "This... This is the prototype?" He asked in awe.
If he had not known better, he would have thought that Luan had hacked into soone’s brain and stolen their body. This smooth and marvelous sensation, this vivid warmth, the pale veins protruding from his arms and each elegant and perfectly-shaped knuckles... they were very much... like a human!
"Mn..." A guilty look flashed through Luan’s face. "I sent my feedback to the manufacturer using your na and they sent this prototype to
today." Despite being heartbroken, the desire to own a body was not abated at all. That’s why he bypassed Dr. Feng and contacted the manufacturer in his stead. He was just keeping this prototype in Dr. Feng’s office in case he would have to use it soti in the future. But who could have guessed that the day would co so fast?
After admitting his mistake, he peered into Dr. Feng’s eyes and could see nothing but fascination and curiosity. Luan hesitated, "You’re... not angry?"
"Why should I?" Dr. Feng chuckled. He could not understand why Luan acted so carefully and thus, he answered in a carefree manner. "This is your body. It’s up to you how you want to adjust it. I’m just helping you to connect with the manufacturer. But I have to admit... it’s really exquisite..." he could not help but squeeze and pinch Luan’s hand a few more tis and patted his strong and muscular arm. His eyes twinkled like a child who had just seen a new and interesting toy.
Luan swallowed hard. He really could not get enough of Dr. Feng’s curious and bright-eyed look. Whenever he was like this, it seed like there was a halo radiating from his body. So bright that Luan could not bring himself to look away. He could not suppress the evil thought brewing within him, especially when Dr. Feng was so approachable when he was drunk like this.
Heart thumping in his chest, he opened his mouth and asked in a low husky voice, "Actually... there is sothing I have been hesitating about. Can you give
so advice?"
"Sure," Dr. Feng answered in a heartbeat, not realizing that he had jumped into the trap head-first.
Luan stared at him deeply, his dark pupils reflecting nothing but the other man within. He grasped Dr. Feng’s wrist and brought the man’s finger to his lips. "It’s my tongue. Can you help
check if... the flexibility, texture and level of moisture is okay?"
