Ruan Mianmian exclaimed, "Baby, you're so domineering, everything you say is right!"

The temperature-controlled suit and the realistic skin technology are both great things; they deserve praise!

The chubby baby stopped making a sound, probably looking at the flowers again.

Qi Wan, standing to the side, was excitedly putting away the doll's clothes. As she was putting them away, she frowned: "Something's not right. These clothes are the doll's size, but why are the jewelry pieces so much bigger?"

Ruan Mianmian nodded in agreement, "Yes. What's going on?" As she spoke, she picked up a string of gemstone beads and put it on her wrist.

A strange thing happened: she looked at the bracelet, which was slightly smaller than her wrist, and when she put it on, it was actually slightly wider than her wrist—just slightly wider, not constricting her wrist, but not so wide that it would slide around.

If she didn't know about the new technology, Ruan Mianmian would have thought it was an illusion. But once she knew about the new technology, she immediately asked the chubby baby, "Baby, baby, can your jewelry adjust its size automatically?"

The chubby baby appeared in an instant, his round, chubby white face full of anger: "Mianmian, didn't I tell you I wanted to look at the flowers and not to disturb me? Why did you disturb me?!"

When Yu Qingqing and Qi Wan saw the chubby baby's angry expression, their hearts jumped.

Although it looks like a little baby and is cute when it's angry, it's actually a system from an advanced civilization inside. Who knows what it might do when it's angry?

If they beat up the host Ruan Mianmian or treat her like an ant, they'll have nowhere to turn for help.

Thinking this, Qi Wan immediately stood in front of Ruan Mianmian.

Yu Qingqing realized what was happening and immediately stepped forward.

But Ruan Mianmian was faster than them. She grabbed the chubby baby, who was puffing up in anger, and kissed his chubby face hard: "Ah, baby, you're so cute! How can you be so cute even when you're angry! Okay, don't be angry. It's not that I want to bother you, but you're the only knowledgeable person among us. Who else should I ask if not you?"

It wasn't that she was brainless and only saw cuteness; rather, after spending so much time with the chubby baby, she knew that the baby not only had no ill intentions towards her but also showed a subtle affection for her, so she subconsciously treated him in the same way that she would treat a child.

Yu Qingqing and Qi Wan were dumbfounded.

Is this okay?

Even if you're going to flatter someone, don't be so blatant and crude, okay?

To their surprise, the chubby baby's anger vanished instantly when he was hugged and kissed. His round face was even slightly flushed, and his big eyes were blinking. Clearly, he was very pleased with Ruan Mianmian's praise and affection!

The chubby baby cleared his throat: "Never mind, I forgive you. These pieces of jewelry have adaptive technology, a technology that's everywhere where we're from. They're set to one size fits all, so everyone can wear them."

Adaptive technology?

Ruan Mianmian, Qi Wan, and the other two stared wide-eyed, a surge of joy welling up inside them.

We've acquired another new technology!

Ruan Mianmian kissed the chubby baby again: "Thank you so much, baby."

"Hmph—" the chubby baby huffed arrogantly, "You really can't bother me anymore!"

Ruan Mianmian's peach blossom eyes flashed, and she kissed him again: "No, that won't do, I have another question."

"What's the problem?" the chubby baby asked.

Ruan Mianmian asked with a smile, "Do you have any trash in your room? Give it to me, I'll take it out for you."

Qi Wan and Yu Qingqing's eyes lit up, and they both looked at the chubby baby expectantly.

Yes, even the trash from advanced civilizations is cutting-edge technology to Earth.

Many of the things people cite today would be of great research value if placed back in the 1930s or 40s.

The only problem is that it's too valuable for research, and we might not be able to figure it out.

Whether we can figure it out is a matter for the future; for now, getting it is the priority.

The chubby baby shook his head: "Mianmian, it's not that I'm unwilling to give it to you. It's just that our interstellar laws stipulate that garbage must be destroyed and cannot be given to people of lower civilizations."

"Can't we make an exception just this once?" Yu Qingqing asked.

He chuckled as soon as he finished asking the question, realizing he had asked in vain.

As a system, the chubby baby is governed not by emotions, but by a pre-programmed sequence of events.

Sure enough, the chubby baby shook her head and replied in an adult female voice, "No exceptions can be made. These are laws and orders that cannot be changed."

Ruan Mianmian's eyes darted around, and she said with a smile, "Then why don't you treat them as trash and give them to me as gifts? That would be fine, wouldn't it?"

"How can I give you these things as gifts?" the chubby baby exclaimed in surprise. Then, he stretched out his little hand and handed over a piece of gold. "This is the first time you've asked me for a gift, so I'll give it to you."

His tone was full of reluctance.

Ruan Mianmian smiled and shook her head, then took his little hand, cupped the gold, and pushed it back: "Baby, gold is precious, I can't accept it. I only want your trash. Don't think it's bad to give trash. Giving gifts is supposed to make people happy. I'm happy that you gave me your trash, that's enough."

When Fatty saw that Ruan Mianmian really didn't want the gold, he put it away and waved his hand, and a pile of "trash" appeared next to Ruan Mianmian!

Ruan Mianmian looked down. She could tell the purpose of some of them, but she had no idea what they were. However, there were quite a few electronic products that she was looking forward to!

She hugged the chubby baby tightly and kissed him several times, saying, "Thank you, baby! I won't bother you anymore. Go back and look at the flowers. I'll give you some more potted plants later; you can keep them forever."

"Then you'd better keep your word." The chubby baby was happy and gave Ruan Mianmian a kiss before disappearing.

Qi Wan happily rummaged through the bags to collect the trash, and said with a smile, "Although some of them look similar to what humans use, only much more advanced, they might contain high-tech gadgets. I'll collect them all."

Ruan Mianmian nodded: "Yes, trash is wealth in the wrong place, and that applies here too."

Qi Wan packed up all the trash and looked at Ruan Mianmian: "I'll also keep the jewelry you gave me and have them take it back to the lab."

Ruan Mianmian nodded: "No problem."

Qi Wan continued to look at Ruan Mianmian, hesitant to speak, but she didn't linger for long before saying, "Besides, you have a very good relationship with the system, so I'm afraid I have to report that as well."

Based on previous observations, Ruan Mianmian and the system had no personal relationship, and the system seemed to be very businesslike and indifferent.

Now it seems that the system has a very good relationship with Ruan Mianmian, like that of an adult and a child who are relatives.

They had always wondered why the system would proactively grant Ruan Mianmian invincible protection within the mall, but now she finally understood.

She reported this not to seize control of the system or to let the leaders know that Ruan Mianmian was hiding something, but to let the higher-ups know that the system was close to Ruan Mianmian, so that everyone could change their attitude and, in some cases, even gain more benefits.

It's not about taking advantage of Ruan Mianmian, but rather that things that were previously too risky to mention for fear of upsetting the system can now be discussed with Ruan Mianmian after learning about their relationship.
