“Bao Guai!” she snapped angrily. “Aren’t you artificial intelligence? I told you to mop the floor and clean up Grandpa Niu’s poop!”
The little robot switched into smearing mode and spread Grandpa Niu’s mess all over the floor.
It smeared in the front while Song Shuangzhi chased behind it, cleaning up in a frenzy.
“You are not allowed into the King of Hell’s room! Do you want to be dismembered?!”
The little robot realized it had caused trouble. “I’ll wash your clothes for you…”
“Tear—!” The clothes ripped apart.
“I have a washing machine…” Song Shuangzhi’s patience with machines was finally defeated by an actual machine. “Why don’t you find something you’re good at?”
The robot lowered its eyes and walked out, looking a little hurt.
In the blink of an eye—
“Whoosh—crash!”
It slipped.
Even with Song Shuangzhi and the four kittens working together, they couldn’t lift it up.
Because it suddenly started having a seizure.
Sweat covered the girl’s forehead. She took off her coat, leaving only a milk-tea-colored camisole, and finally managed to drag the robot out of the bathroom.
“I can cook. I’m very good at cooking,” Bao Guai said. “Song Shuangzhi, sit here properly and don’t move.”
He pressed her shoulders and set her down on the sofa.
“You… suddenly caught a domineering CEO disease?”
The little robot went into the kitchen.
Three seconds later—
“Beep beep beep beep!”
System: 【Ah! What’s happening?! The smoke alarm! Is it trying to burn you to death?!】
Song Shuangzhi and the four little ones rushed into the kitchen again.
Bao Guai held up a plate of black charcoal. “Here, eat.”
Song Shuangzhi wanted to cry. “Huh? Me?”
Bao Guai blinked his big eyes. Song Shuangzhi desperately needed to distract him.
“That drunk outside—I really hate him! Making ghostly wails in the middle of the night instead of sleeping. Bao Guai, go deal with him!”
Bao Guai sneered coldly. “Woman, leave it to me, you just—”
System: 【So annoying!】
Bao Guai charged out, threw a series of punches at the air, fell into Litchi Bay, and was fished back out by Song Shuangzhi…
“Ah-choo!” She sat on the sofa wrapped in a blanket, like a drenched little puppy.
Her phone rang. Only then did she realize she had missed several calls from Tan Siyan.
She hugged her phone and asked the system, “He called me…”
System: 【He installed the light strips for you and gave you a robot, and you haven’t even thanked him.】
Song Shuangzhi looked at the malfunctioning artificial idiot sparking beside her and ground her teeth. …I thank his whole family!
“Hello~”
On the surveillance screen, the girl looked like a soft little bundle. Her face carried a trace of anger, yet her voice was still sweet and cloying.
“Did you arrange for the light strips to be installed? And Little Snail,” she said with a smile, “it’s so cute.”
“It can wash clothes, cook, sing for me, and even help me deal with people who bully me. It’s perfect in every way. Thank you!”
Tan Siyan stared at the monitor, her syrupy, insincere voice echoing in his ears.
“Is it really that good?”
“It’s wonderful beyond words. You must have chosen it carefully, right? It helps me so much and makes my life boring… ah-choo!… full of fun…”
She sniffled.
“You caught a cold,” he said with certainty.
Song Shuangzhi smiled. “Of course not. It’s… Labubu who caught a cold.”
His silence made her a little nervous. “Well, I’m going to sleep now. Chief Judge Tan, good night~”
The call ended.
Tan Siyan looked at the promotion order in his hand. The irritation in his chest made him want to tear it apart.
Song Shuangzhi was exhausted too. She tidied up the house a bit and prepared to sleep.
In her mind:【Clingy female supporting character task triggered: Cry on the phone and say you miss him.】
【Clingy female supporting character task triggered: Make him come back and accompany you for a manicure.】
【Clingy female supporting character task triggered: Make him resign and never leave again.】
【Clingy female supporting character task triggered…】
“What did I even do? Did I poke a nest of tasks?”
The system frowned. 【The third possible reason for triggering tasks is…】
【It’s…】
【The male lead calling your name while…】
【Self… self-indulging?】
Song Shuangzhi, who had already collapsed onto the bed, jolted upright.
“(・◇・)?”
System: 【Then it must be reason four!】
Song Shuangzhi didn’t even have the strength to think about what reason four was. She was too sleepy…
“Tongbao…”
【Zhizhi, just sleep! Workers have rights too! We in the system world have a Labor Law as well! Stand behind me! I’ll go tear that damn main god apart for your sleep!】
【I’m charging in!】
After a good night’s sleep. The system in her mind refreshed again.
A large patch of red 【Incomplete】.
Song Shuangzhi felt that when there are too many lice, the itching stops. If she owed three thousand, she would panic, but owing three hundred billion made her feel oddly at ease enough to lie flat.
The doorbell rang. Two groups of people arrived.
One group delivered cold-prevention medicine, while the other took Bao Guai away for upgrades.
The box of medicine was left on the coffee table. She didn’t even open it.
Like a thorn lodged in Tan Siyan’s flesh.
He didn’t even want to ask if she had taken the medicine, because she would definitely smile and say:【I took it. It’s bitter, but thank you~】
Liar!
“Chief Judge, court is about to begin. These are supplementary materials,” the assistant said, handing over a thick stack of files. “It’s an arms dealer. Very dangerous, and the forces behind him are deeply entangled…”
“This case isn’t under my jurisdiction,” Tan Siyan interrupted.
The assistant paused. Chief Judge Tan was famously cold and ruthless, but always professional. In fact, he was known as a good man in the international court, someone willing to lend a hand.
“It was left behind by Judge Pierre. You know, he…”
“Yes! Busy chasing his wife, getting married, and having children.”
The assistant could hear the suppressed anger in his tone but didn’t understand why.
“Send the case back to him. Let him judge it himself. I don’t have time.”
Tan Siyan turned and walked away.
The assistant chased after him. “Where are you going?”
“Back—”
“Chief Judge Tan, that drug trafficker has been caught!” Several international police officers ran over excitedly. “The big case we’ve been tracking for half a year can finally be closed!”
The assistant finally understood why he was in a bad mood. He already had too many cases on his hands.
As Tan Siyan walked, he buttoned his suit. “Trial in two days. I have something personal to handle.”
“Huh?” Delaying by two days wasn’t against regulations, but it was unheard of for him. The officers whispered among themselves. “Why the exception this time? Oh right, there’s also a Chinese suspect involved. Surname Song… what was it?”
“Song Yuan!”
Tan Siyan stopped in his tracks.
Song Yuan, Song Shuangzhi’s gambling-addicted father.
Very likely driven to desperation for money, resorting to drug trafficking…
He pinched the bridge of his nose and turned around. “Let’s go take a look.”
Beicheng!
Sitting in her office, Song Shuangzhi looked at her failed law exam results…
She sighed. ε=(´ο｀*)))
