The little female is incredibly sweet and soft, healing the five evil beasts right from the start.

Chapter 123: Get off work
Time to get off.

Jiang Mian walked to the villa entrance, and Xiao Rong, the robot who had been waiting in the guardhouse next to the entrance, immediately came out.

"Welcome home the world's most beautiful, lovely, adorable, and incredibly amazing baby Mianmian!" A fireworks animation instantly appeared on Xiaorong's square head screen. "Baby Mianmian has finished today's work, so awesome! So baby Mianmian is the best! Xiaorong loves Mianmian! Loves Mianmian the most!"

Hearing the praise from that innocent, fun, and lively voice, Jiang Mian's mood couldn't help but improve.

Although the compliments made her a little embarrassed, she was still in a good mood.

Jiang Mian couldn't help but touch its square mechanical head, and smiled slightly: "Thank you for the compliment."

"Shall I take you back?" Zhou Bai had escorted Jiang Mian from the lab to the door.

"No need to trouble Mr. Zhou, my robot will take me back." Jiang Mian glanced at Zhou Bai, her face still bearing the gentle, sweet smile she hadn't yet lost.

Zhou Bai's dark eyes flickered slightly, his eyelids drooped slightly, then he adjusted his black-rimmed glasses and softly replied, "Okay."

So Jiang Mian went back with his robot.

"Is Mianmian tired from walking?" Xiao Rong's lively voice rang out. "Xiao Rong can carry Mianmian back home."

"Really?" Jiang Mian looked at the robot next to her with curiosity.

"Of course!" Xiao Rong said, her arms forming a tight circle as she squatted down in front of Jiang Mian. "Come on, Mianmian baby!"

Jiang Mian was curious, but still hesitated: "Is it really okay? Won't it hurt you?"

"Only three carbon-based men can't lift a female. I'm the robot created by the most powerful Lord Rong Fei, not a third-rate robot. Of course I can lift baby Mianmian!" the robot said confidently.

The robots in the interstellar world are all very intelligent, and the robot that Rong Fei gave her is the most intelligent of all.

"Okay." Jiang Mian smiled faintly.

The robot picked her up and glided away quickly on its swivel wheels.

Jiang Mian became increasingly satisfied with the robot.

Soon, the robot took her back to the small building.

"Thank you, Xiao Rong!" Jiang Mian patted the robot's head.

"It is my honor to serve the most beloved baby Mianmian, the most powerful Lord Rong Fei in the world!" Xiao Rong's childlike and lively voice rang out, always full of positive energy.

"Okay, okay, I got it." Jiang Mian smiled.

She took the robot back to the house and immediately took it to charge.

"Xiao Rong doesn't need electricity yet!" Xiao Rong's clear voice rang out.

"It's okay, you can eat your fill. Once you're full, just unplug the charger yourself." Jiang Mian patted its head affectionately.

"Waaaaah, Mianmian is the best baby in the world! Lord Rong Fei loves Mianmian the most! So Xiao Rong is the second most loving Mianmian!" Xiao Rong was so moved that the screen showed animated eyes with tears of emotion, which was so cute.

Jiang Mian chuckled softly. She really didn't know how someone as gentle, calm, leisurely, and composed as Rong Fei could program such a lively person as this robot, but she quite liked it.

She drank the nutritional supplement and went back to her room to rest, but then she found a gift box on her bed.

A luxurious, beautiful, and exquisite purple gift box.

Jiang Mian paused for a moment, and the sight of purple immediately reminded her of an imperial edict.

After all, Zhao Ci's butterfly wings were a shimmering purple-gold color, and he usually liked to wear purple clothes, so the first person that came to Jiang Mian's mind was Zhao Ci. This must be a gift from Zhao Ci to her.

Jiang Mian then remembered that last night she should have been summoned to warm the bed, but she had gone to Rong Fei's place instead.

Actually, the "warming the bed" she mentioned doesn't necessarily mean actually warming the bed.

However, she should also inform Zhao Ci.

Jiang Mian felt a pang of annoyance.

From now on, if she doesn't come home at night or doesn't let anyone warm her bed, she has to tell them.

This serves as a reminder to her.

Jiang Mian hurriedly grabbed the gift box and went to find Zhao Ci, wondering if Zhao Ci was in the house.
She knocked on the door once, and the door was opened the next second.

Jiang Mian paused, looking at the imperial edict with some surprise.

When she returned, she didn't see anyone and thought there was no one in the building, so she just knocked on the door to see if Zhaoci was in the room. Unexpectedly, he was there.

Beneath his purple, tousled hair, a beautiful face appeared listless. With the room lights off, a dim shadow fell on the upper half of his face, while outside light slanted across the lower half, creating a play of light and shadow on his features.

His beautiful purple-gold eyes seemed to have disappeared into the shadows. His lips, still beautiful and bright red in the light and shadow, were bruised at the corners, clearly indicating that he had been punched.

"Zhaoci, did you get into a fight?" Jiang Mian's worried gaze fell on his face, and she reached out to touch his lips. "Are you alright?"

Zhao Ci noticed her outstretched hand. He was clearly angry that she had left him alone in the room last night, and he should have turned his head away and not let her touch him.

But in fact, he did not turn his face away, but waited for Jiang Mian's fingers to land on his lips.

The girl's soft fingertips touched the corner of his lips.

Zhao Ci's eyelashes were half-closed, his gaze falling on her. The corners of his mouth, which were slightly bruised and sore, began to feel a faint pain and numbness from the girl's touch.

"It's alright, it doesn't hurt," Zhao Ci said softly. "Mianmian, don't worry."

Jiang Mian put her hand down, intending to go and get the topical medicine for him later.

A moment later, she remembered why she had come.

"Zhao Ci, is this a gift you gave me?" Jiang Mian quickly lifted the gift box she was holding in her hands.

Zhao Ci's gaze fell lightly on the gift box, his eyes darkening slightly, and he gave a blank "hmm."

“I really like this gift. Last night…” Jiang Mian originally wanted to use the gift as an excuse to bring up what happened last night and apologize to the other party, but she was interrupted before she could finish speaking.

"You haven't even opened the gift, how can you like it so much?" Zhao Ci's voice was completely emotionless as he spoke quietly.

His voice was calm, yet it sounded like a storm brewing beneath the surface.

When Zhao Ci saw the gift box, he was reminded of what happened last night, and his mood couldn't help but sink.

Jiang Mian paused, blinked gently, and said, "I like anything you give me, so I don't need to look at it. I'll like whatever you give me."

Zhao Ci's beautiful purple-gold eyes flickered slightly, and she tilted her head slightly to look away. However, she quickly couldn't help but look back at Jiang Mian and softly replied, "Mm."

"I'm so sorry about last night," Jiang Mian quickly said. "I'll let you know if I stay out all night in the future. You didn't wait for me all night, did you?"
