Cultivating the soil, picking fruits, harvesting… If making the nutrient solution could count as cooking, then he had to cook every day as well.

Oh yes, not only that, he also had to take care of the old lonely man… Wait, no! He meant himself who couldn’t move… i kzpY

Resting his mechanical palm on the dry skin, the tiny robot spaced out for a moment.

However, he didn’t have much time to think about this. Soon, the owner of another pair of hands resting on the dry skin began to speak to him.

“Xiao Mei, one of the light bulbs burned out. How about you go change it?”

“Oh.” Responding with a syllable, he stood up to change the light bulb. Since he wasn’t tall enough, he first had to move in a ladder. After being called upon so frequently to change light bulbs in these few days, Xiao Mei had become a skilled worker. vHqPRZ

What a terrible truth –

He knew everything that would happen after pushing open the Gate, and he had tens of thousands of ways to deal with them. Yet, he had never known that, after choosing to go at the opposite direction instead of opening the Gate, the outcome waiting for him would be something like this now!

“You’ve worked hard. By the way, go get another piece of clean cloth. You are drooling.” Just after he completed one instruction, and before he had time to put the ladder back in place, the next instruction came.

Looking up at the naked body…of himself which was lying in bed, he saw some water-like liquid dripping out from under the respirator. He went over and checked the catheter: “It’s not drool. It’s just that your previous movements had knocked the catheter askew.”

“Ah, is that so? How fortunate that you are a careful person, Xiao Mei~” The culprit scratched his head, and let out a very standard “hahahaha” sound.

Xiao Mei: “……”

A quiet meditation.

However, as soon as Rong Gui’s consciousness was successfully transferred and his robotic body was officially booted up, this thought had utterly become a vain hope.

They spent the entire twenty-five hours together every day. Except for the eight hours when Rong Gui shut down and slept, Rong Gui’s mouth had almost never stopped! lkvym0

And when he shut down, he would spontaneously connect his socket to Xiao Mei’s plug, so that they could recharge together!

The resources were limited, and there was only one charging port, so Xiao Mei had to put up with it.

Their two bodies consumed quite a lot of earth beans. Yet, it’s unclear whether because Xiao Mei had a talent for cultivation or what, their harvest was rather good. Over time, they actually saved up two baskets of earth beans.

If properly stored in the cellar, earth beans are a kind of food that could be preserved for a long time. mPeC26

Xiao Mei didn’t know the exact number of those earth beans, but Rong Gui had seriously counted all of them – once a day before he went to bed.

“It’s an old habit. The snacks in the orphanage were limited, so we counted them every day and everyone got to share a bit of them. In this way we could enjoy them for a few more days.” Xiao Mei obviously didn’t ask anything, yet Rong Gui took the initiative to explain it while counting.

Rong Gui talked a lot every day. In the past few days, he had already repeated the names of all the people in the orphanage.

“It’s indeed effective to keep massaging the bodies every day.” After giving a final soft massage on his own body, Rong Gui said with satisfaction. Thanks to this current robotic body, his eyesight was much better than before. He could not only see things at night, but also record every detail of the object he saw. As a result, he could now really discern something that he might not be able to notice before. For example, after a few days of massage, he found his body had become slightly plumper and more moistened – though just a tiny bit. uf6zlV

Seeing him withdrawing his hands, Xiao Mei also obediently put his own hands back on his knee.

“Next, it’s your body’s turn, Xiao Mei.” Moving away from his own body and sitting next to Xiao Mei’s feet, Rong Gui announced that their next goal to conquer was Xiao Mei’s body!

“In fact, it’s okay if my body doesn’t get massaged.” Rong Gui’s so-called “full body massage” was very time-consuming, which would take at least four hours for one body and around eight hours for two. Aside from massage, Rong Gui even asked to have the two bodies lifted outside, which he euphemistically described as “to take a breeze”.

Although they were now idling around and basically had nothing to do, for Xiao Mei, spending the best part of the day entirely on “body maintenance” was still too much waste of time and energy. dFEyn6

Besides, it also consumed too much power.

These two now had to spend two more hours to recharge each day, just because too much energy was used up during daytime.

“No way!” Xiao Mei’s proposal was rejected as soon as it came out.

Gently pressing his mechanical palm on one of Xiao Mei’s feet, Rong Gui said, “We need to be fair. You’ve helped to massage my body, so I must help to massage yours as well!” 1V7epx

“Then how about I don’t help you to massage?” Xiao Mei continued to suggest.

“That’s even more unacceptable. I cannot properly handle the massage alone. Although I have improved a lot now, my strength is still too great for certain body parts. I have to rely on you to massage those parts which require a lighter and subtler pressure.” Rong Gui refused again.

God knew that Rong Gui’s so-called “body parts which required a lighter and subtler pressure” almost took up three quarters of the whole body, which was to say…

Currently, both bodies were all basically massaged by Xiao Mei, and Rong Gui was mostly responsible for lifting the bodies from aside and providing verbal guidance. tu0R3c

Xiao Mei: “……”

In this way, Rong Gui lifted up Xiao Mei’s feet gently, and carefully massaged them with the lightest pressure. At last he called for Xiao Mei, “I have finished the massage of the soles and insteps, and I’m counting on you to do the remaining massages for toes!”

Thus, Xiao Mei had no choice but to take over his own feet and massage his toes meticulously.

He found that anyone would know any detail about himself crystal clear following such daily massage procedures. For example: for the first time of his life, he discovered that his great toes were as long as his index toes! BYaMck


Author has something to say:

The daily chores of the two people together.

In a place with nothing else but only two of them…and their bodies.

They could take time to thoroughly know each other. SuqLke

As for Xiao Mei, he would also need to cultivate a relationship with his body.

  1. I feel like Xiao Mei will be a great (house)husband. I admire his patience tho. I would feel irritated being ordered while I’m doing the thing they previously ordered me to do.

    RIP Xiao Mei’s quiet meditation.

    I wonder how quite Xiao Mei’s world will be if Ah Gui suddenly disappears.

    Them massaging each other’s body looks so cute. It will probably look cuter when they’re in their real body.

    Ah Gui’s life in the past must be tough. I am glad Xiao Mei is here with him now.

    Their cuteness always makes my day UwU

    Thank you very much for this chapter! I hope you’re doing great ^^ stay hydrated and safe~
