Immersive Fast Wear: The Anti-Strike Manual of the Heartthrob

Endless grievance and anger surged into Xie Ci's heart.

He had always been at odds with Lu Zhuoxing, and now he was even more unwilling to expose his embarrassment in front of him.

"Well, since it's her own wish, I don't care."

Xie Ci left angrily and went home to sit on the sofa and sulk.

Oh, if you want to stay with Lu Zhuoxing, then stay.

Anyway, what he thought was love was probably just a joke in Xie Yi's eyes. It was not as important as the initial owner.

It is simply a pipe dream to want to teach robots what emotions and love are.

Xie Ci smiled self-deprecatingly and advised himself in his heart.

'It's time to give up.'

-

For Xie Ci, having one person missing in his life was just a return to his previous life.

I am busy in the laboratory every day, and I go between the institute and my villa in the suburbs.

In fact, he is now busier than before.

In the past, Xie Ci liked to do research, but he also had his own rest time.

But after returning from Lu Zhuoxing, he devoted all his energy to research, working day and night, so busy that he had no extra time to think.

With such intensive work, Xie Ci successfully upgraded and improved the latest companion robot based on the experience of transforming Xie Yi in those three months.

The companion robots on the market today are almost indistinguishable from the real ones. Their behavior patterns are more in line with human thinking, giving users the most natural experience.

This is a major breakthrough in the relevant field.

Xie Ci originally had a distinguished status in the country, and now because of his research breakthrough, his reputation and status have risen to a level that no one else can reach.

But for Xie Ci, fame or wealth is not important.

He didn't feel happy about it.

Obviously, research used to be the most important thing in his life, but now it seems to have become meaningless.

Research success, breakthroughs, or failures do not trigger any emotional fluctuations in expressing gratitude.

The more he wanted to replace Xie Yi's existence with the work he once loved, the stronger her presence became.

Whether in the laboratory, at home, or driving on the road, he always felt that there would be traces of Xie Yi around him, and he couldn't help but look for her traces with his eyes.

Such a result was already doomed since the conflict broke out a month ago.

At that time, his sanity was gone, not to mention that now he was watching people leave his world step by step.

Xie Ci had no control over his actions and thoughts.

When an invitation to a banquet that he had previously been reluctant to attend was delivered to his villa, the first thing he did was not to destroy it or refuse it outright.

Xie Ci opened the invitation to the banquet and asked the smart butler.

"Who are the main guests invited to this banquet?"

When he saw that the invited guests listed were military officers in the results of the smart butler's query, Xie Ci uncontrollably put the invitation into his suit pocket.

Many people came to the party.

Politicians, military officers, businessmen and researchers like him, those who were serious in the past, now raised their glasses and chatted and laughed with people they admired.

Xie Ci never liked such occasions. He arrived early just to see Xie Yi earlier.

After greeting the host of the banquet and confirming that Lu Zhuoxing would come with a female companion today, Xie Ci felt relieved.

It's still early and many people haven't arrived yet.

Xie Ci took a glass of wine, walked out of the hall, and sat down under a quiet pavilion in the yard.

The view here is wide and you can see people coming in and out.

Xie Ci held the wine glass to his lips, but his eyes were distracted, wandering around all the places within his field of vision, as if he was looking for something.

As time passed, the number of people coming in and out gradually decreased. The yard was lively for a while and then gradually returned to silence.

Xie Ci hadn't seen the person he wanted to see for a long time, and was about to doubt whether what the host of the banquet said was false, when he heard the voices of a man and a woman talking not far away.

Both voices sounded very familiar. Xie Ci turned his gaze and saw that the people coming were Xie Yi and Lu Zhuoxing.

Lu Zhuoxing seemed to treat his previous words "robots can never function as lovers" as nonsense, and his behavior was completely opposite to his previous dismissive words.

He held Xie Yi's hand tightly, his eyes would fall on her from time to time, and he kept saying something.

They walked along the stone path in the middle of the lawn, looking happy, like a young couple.

Just like Xie Ci and Xie Yi from the past.

Xie Ci felt as if a thin needle was piercing his heart in his chest. He was a little breathless. After taking a few deep breaths, he got up and went to find the two of them.

When he was halfway there, something even more unacceptable happened.

Lu Zhuoxing and Xie Yi were walking side by side, their hands tightly held together and swaying back and forth, looking lively and energetic.

Xie Yi seemed to be in a good mood. She walked in a hopping manner, occasionally looking forward at the road, and occasionally turning her head to talk to Lu Zhuoxing.

Halfway through the walk, I don’t know what Lu Zhuoxing said, but her face turned red.

Without waiting for the other two people present to react, Xie Yi suddenly stopped, hugged Lu Zhuoxing's arm, stood on tiptoes, and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

Then, without waiting for Lu Zhuoxing to say anything, she ran away shyly.

Naturally, she did not succeed in "escaping".

Lu Zhuoxing quickly caught her, and their eyes met, adding an ambiguous atmosphere to the quiet air.

Xie Ci stood not far away, his eyes bloodshot.

This is what Xie Yi did to him in the past. Did she apply the love experience she learned from him to Lu Zhuoxing now?

This was just what he saw. During the days when he was busy studying the blind, he wondered if there were more things she used on Lu Zhuoxing.

He didn't dare to think about it any further.

Xie Ci's eyes seemed to be burning with anger, and he couldn't control his emotions and crushed the glass in his hand. The sharp glass fragments scratched his palm, and blood flowed down his palm to the ground.

Tick-tick, tick-tick, the green grass is blooming with gorgeous "red flowers".

Xie Ci was unaware of the pain in his hand. He strode forward and tore the hands that were holding each other apart.

"professor?"

Xie Yi was a little different from the last time they met. When she looked at him, there was admiration and respect in her eyes, not the familiar love.

"Yiyi, why don't you call me Aci anymore?"

Xie Ci held Xie Yi's hand tightly, and this time, no matter how she struggled, he was unwilling to let go.

"Father, no, professor. Why should I call you A Ci?" Xie Yi asked curiously.

She knew that the person in front of her was the one who studied and produced her, so he was equivalent to her father.

Given the identities of the two of them, no matter how they call each other, they can't call him A Ci.

"Don't you remember the three months we were together?"

Xie Ci's heartbeat quickened and he spoke a lot faster due to nervousness.
