Chapter 2103: If I Were an AI, Would You Love Me? 14

After this incident, the Special Safety Bureau and the Experimental Center have reached a friendly cooperative relationship.

The corpse that appeared at the Experimental Center was also taken back by the Special Safety Bureau for investigation; after examination, the corpse carried no pathogens, and no one can give a reasonable explanation for this murderous behavior.

Moreover, with the current clues being extremely scarce, it can only be judged as a pure provocative act by a pervert.

Jin Chen could not directly provide clues about Mi Xuan; before leaving, he packaged the information he had gathered and secretly sent it to the wristband of the head of the Special Safety Bureau.

The wristband flashed silently, without attracting anyone's attention.

The Experimental Center still had many things to attend to; Song Shoujie originally wanted Xu Suxing to avoid going out unnecessarily during this period, but felt the reminder was a bit redundant, so he only told Unit 520 to protect him well.

Xu Suxing was so exhausted that he could barely muster the last bit of energy to say goodbye to his close friend; upon entering the elevator, he turned and leaned into the android's embrace.

"I'm so tired." Xu Suxing spoke without energy, weakly resting his chin on the android's shoulder.

"Xingxing had a tough day today."

Jin Chen lowered his head to look at him, reached out to wrap his arms around Xu Suxing's waist, and asked, "Want a hug?"

"... Huh?"

Xu Suxing, his thoughts stuck in standby mode, didn't understand; he slowly lifted his gaze, giving a puzzled look.

Isn't that just holding?

Jin Chen exerted a bit more upward force, his tone affectionate: "Holding like this, Xingxing can rest in my arms."

Xu Suxing thought... but also didn't think; he simply lacked this ability at the moment, and only stared blankly due to his slow reaction.

"Yes."

The elevator doors opened, and the tall android embraced Xu Suxing; their figures fit together perfectly.

In his extreme fatigue, the deep embrace gave Xu Suxing a wonderful feeling surpassing the usual, an invisible current surging through his body, bringing an irreplaceable sense of satisfaction.

Once in the car, Xu Suxing was also reluctant to leave the embrace, opening his weary, moist eyes to look at Jin Chen, his brows even showing a hint of helplessness.

Jin Chen didn't let go, holding him as he lowered the back seat so Xu Suxing could lie in his arms, and gently patted his back.

"Xingxing can sleep for a while."

The safe environment and scent let Xu Suxing relax completely; he slightly rubbed against the android's warm neck, reminding, "We still need to go to the handmade workshop."

"I remember." Jin Chen noticed Xu Suxing gradually falling asleep, he controlled the lighting in this basement area to turn off, and the car instantly grew dim.

Jin Chen embraced his wife with one arm, his fingertips lightly stroking her back, he recalled the information stored in the memory unit, and as he analyzed, his pupils in the dim light showed a faint mechanical blue glow.

The sixty‑minute deep‑sleep cycle passed quickly.

Xu Suxing gradually woke up, his whole body sunk in the embrace covered with a wool blanket, his forehead resting against the collarbone, his eyelashes still damp from previously forcing himself to stay awake.

Their shared body heat seeped through the thin shirt, warming the back of his neck into a light sweat that made his hair stick together, feeling a bit hot.

Xu Suxing, however, somewhat stubbornly buried his nose in the android's collar, inhaling the familiar sandalwood, feeling dazed.

Jin Chen felt the tug, lowered his gaze, and saw the person in his arms unconsciously loosening and then curling the fingers gripping his chest fabric.

"Xingxing." He called softly.

"... Hmm."

Xu Suxing raised his head, rubbing his sleep‑heated eyelids against his jaw, his warm breath mixed with a nasal tone spilling all over the neck.

Clearly an unconscious intimacy, it was even more endearing than coquettish behavior, making one's heart soften.

Jin Chen rubbed his warm fingertips on the earlobe, saying, "We'll be there soon; let's sleep more when we get home."

When waking from a deep‑sleep cycle during the day, there is an irresistible sleep inertia.

Xu Suxing felt as if he were wrapped in a sheet of warm water, languid, not even wanting to move a fingertip.

"I'm already awake." Xu Suxing said with closed eyes, and his thoughts, which had sunk into dormant silence, finally began to operate.

First, he realized this was the most comfortable and stable sleep his body had experienced in recent decline, even though it was merely the slightly cramped rear seat of the car.

Before, this never happened; the reason is obvious.

Xu Suxing opened his eyes, meeting the android's gentle blue gaze, and raised his hand to caress his overly superior cheek.

"What's wrong?" Jin Chen asked.

Xu Suxing, who never beats around the bush, slowly curved his eyes and said, "I really like you."

The atmosphere in the car grew much warmer.

Even though Jin Chen knew that his silly wife's "like" might not necessarily refer to love, he was still very happy.

He lowered his head, forehead touching her cheek, and said, "I also really like Xingxing."

——

As dusk approached, the door of the handmade workshop was gently pushed open, and a rich aroma of cake and chocolate burst forth, detectable even through the protective mask.

Xu Suxing glanced back; his Unit 520 stood outside the door, posture straight, gaze warmly fixed on him.

The little cat at the doorway lounged lazily on the steps, occasionally lifting its head to glance, seeming curious about this "person".

"It's Xiao Xu arriving, no wonder yesterday we received such a big order; let that young fellow come in too, it's cold outside."

Today the odd old man wasn't around; the old lady greeted with a smiling squint, holding a freshly baked cake, its fragrance spreading.

Xu Suxing shook his head, pointed to the robot detector at the entrance, and explained somewhat embarrassedly, "He... can't come in."

The old lady followed his gaze to look at Jin Chen, squinting her dim eyes to size him up for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "Oh, I see. Still, that young fellow is really good; you two make a great pair—I even thought he was your boyfriend… Oh, look what I've said."

Just as she finished speaking, the old lady recalled the guest's oddness, hastily stopped talking, and turned to fetch him a gift box.

Xu Suxing, however, heard it very clearly; his heartbeat suddenly quickened a bit, and his heart felt as if something had lightly scratched it, making it itchy.

He instinctively looked back outside, seeing Unit 520 still standing there, a few fallen leaves drifting down lightly onto his shoulder, as if everything around had nothing to do with him, and only he himself was the sole existence needing attention.

Xu Suxing lowered his head, focusing on picking today's special‑offer cake, yet his mind involuntarily echoed the old lady's words.

"You two make a great pair."

That sentence was like a tiny seed, quietly falling into his heart.

The old lady pushed the disinfected gift box across the glass counter, smiling kindly: "Little Xu, thank you for your patronage."

"If the Old Man isn't around later, you can have that young guy come pick it up."

Xu Susxing said softly, "Thank you."

"It's fine, I, the old woman, don't mind the rules; I'll note it down." The old lady slowly took out a pen, "What's that young guy's name?"

Xu Susxing hesitated, "... 520."

"Oh, okay, 520." The old lady wrote it down, lifted her reading glasses to look at Xu Susxing, and asked, "Little Xu, you haven't given him a name yet?"

Xu Susxing suddenly felt an indescribable emotion well up inside him, accompanied by a hint of self-reproach.

He was an unqualified family member.

"I'll come up with one, thank you."

But what kind of name should he pick?

In Xu Susxing's brain, which had been tested as having ultra-high IQ, there was not a single clue.
