"Let me try!" Gu Xixi reached out and poked Shen Qingyan's palm with her finger; it was indeed warm.

It was freezing cold yesterday, but it's warm today.

This update and iteration is impressive.

Gu Xixi gave a thumbs up, "So, will you update your content in the future to be exactly like a human's!?"

A virtual human can cultivate into a human?

Ah, it's just the progress of technology.

"You like me to become human?" Shen Qingyan asked seriously. He was smiling, but there was sadness in his eyes. "Yes, you must want a human to always be with you. After all, I am just a virtual person."

Just a two-dimensional character...

"No, no, someone as amazing as you, a paper doll with a physical form, would be the dream paper doll in our modern world! And you're even cheat code, you're the kind of paper doll that everyone, young and old, loves and desires, extremely precious and rare."

Gu Xixi immediately grabbed his arm and shook it, shaking her head.

"I am so fortunate to have you. How could I be so short-sighted and shallow as to only want you to become human? It's good as it is now, really."

Even if Shen Qingyan can only live in this form, she doesn't care as long as he's happy.

Modern relationships move too fast and end too quickly; she doesn't really like that. Someone like Shen Qingyan is just right.

"And what about yourself? Do you want to become human?" Gu Xixi asked again, getting closer and closer to Shen Qingyan, almost hanging on his shoulder.

Shen Qingyan let her hang there, but he looked slightly uncomfortable. His voice was low and firm. "I want to become a human, a real human being, because only in this way can I... Never mind, I won't say anymore. You should get some rest."

Shen Qingyan shook his head and smiled helplessly, then gently pressed Gu Xixi back onto the bed and disappeared in an instant.

Gu Xixi rested her chin on her hands. Shen Qingyan wanted to be a human being... So he wanted to be a human being himself... Was it because he hadn't been a human being enough before?

Or perhaps he has experienced too much, lived too long in a systemic way, and only wants a short life?

If she were in her shoes, after traversing three thousand worlds, would she still want to live on...? Gu Xixi pulled the blanket up to her chin and sighed.

……

After three days of tracking, the Ugly Kingdom delegation finally embarked on their return journey on the afternoon of the last day. They were seen off onto the plane, and Gu Xixi and the others also boarded different flights and returned to their respective places.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Xixi returned to her room in the villa.

Meanwhile, at the highest command center of the Ugly Kingdom.

Mr. Pete took the stack of documents handed to him by his assistant and examined them one by one. "Chu Feng, Tong Yue, Gu Tingchen... is this your investigation result? Did the three of them ruin all our plans?!"

"We accomplished nothing on this trip to China... We need to find a way to prevent them from showing up again! China is about to replace us on Earth, and we don't have much time left. By the way, is there any new progress on the previous extraterrestrial signals?"

"And our own research labs, we need to push them all. Why is it that Chinese talents keep emerging one after another, each one a modern-day Einstein, while we've spent so much money and time and made no progress at all? If this continues, we should just fire them all."

"Mr. Pete, please don't be angry. Ever since we made contact with the extraterrestrial messages last time, we have been actively communicating with them and received a reply. We have received amazing news, which may be the perfect opportunity for us to leave China behind again!"

The assistant smiled and handed Mr. Pete the information that the research institute had deciphered.

Pete was incredulous after reading it.

The ancestors of the Chinese people were actually aliens!

Their home planet has been searching for them and even offering technological assistance? To return to their home planet as soon as possible… Pete suddenly had a new idea.

“Continue to actively follow up with them. This is really good news. If it's true, it's a great opportunity for us. Just two exchanges and they can tell that our technology is not as good as theirs... Of course, before that, you need to gather all your resources to confirm the truth and feasibility of this matter.”

"If it is feasible, the Chinese people are human beings living on Earth, and so are we, so we can also obtain technological assistance on their behalf."

Mr. Pete thought for a long time, then smiled.

"We need controlled nuclear fusion technology." When testing the other party's authenticity, we should first catch up with the progress of China.

"Yes, I'll arrange it right away." Mr. Pete's assistant left immediately and headed to the research institute. As soon as he entered, he heard cheers coming from inside.

He strode in, and the staff inside gave him high-fives when they saw him.

"We received another signal from Emerald Star. They believe we are from the land of flowers, their descendants left behind on Earth. They even sent us a new signal, different from the previous ones. According to analysis, it might be a photograph."

"That's right. If it can be successfully translated, there will be so much more information to be gleaned from a single photograph. It would be the greatest discovery and the greatest photograph in human history!"

"The photo will be translated in half an hour, let's wait a bit longer, I think we should open a bottle of champagne."

……

Mr. Pete's assistant asked in bewilderment, "Old folks, how did you manage to gain the aliens' trust so easily? Did you send them a few photos of Chinese people?"

“How could we possibly have such advanced technology, sir? We have a Chinese expert here, and it’s all thanks to him. We’re currently troubled after receiving the reply from the Emerald Star people, wondering how to convince them.”

"As a result, our 'China expert' wrote down a sentence: 'Can you even grow crops on your planet? How far is your home planet from us? Are we, the descendants of the dragon, the only inhabitants of your planet?'"

"You don't know, I initially thought this statement was wrong, but the expert from the Chinese nation said that the first thing the Chinese people did after landing on the moon was to ask if they could use lunar soil to grow crops... Unexpectedly, Emerald Star replied with a new message, saying that the code matched and sent us the coordinates, asking us to make our requests."

"Sir, you should report this to Mr. Pete immediately."

……

The assistant nodded, about to report, when another piercing cheer erupted, "Oh my god! The photos are out! Look!"

On the large screen of the research institute ahead, a picture of a technological city caught everyone's eye; the silver-white and silver-blue buildings were even more futuristic than those in science fiction movies.

With well-developed air, underground, and surface transportation systems, every corner holds countless pieces of information.

It is unlike any other landscape on Earth.

"Quickly investigate whether this photo is genuine, whether it comes from somewhere on Earth, call an emergency meeting, and once confirmed, I will report back to Mr. Pete!"

The Ugly Country must seize the opportunity to help the Flower Country replace their good fortune!
