Chapter 224 The Unsolvable Puzzle
Chapter 224 The Unsolvable Puzzle
The knock on the door was neither hurried nor slow, as if he knew that the two people in the suite would definitely open the door, so he was even considerate enough to only knock three times, and then waited calmly outside the door.
The expression on Liuli's face returned to nothingness. She knew Chu Xuan would definitely come, but it was too early for him to come.
Although she didn't mind if God and Hongjun really fought, she had to apply for political asylum before the fight.
"Aren't you going to open the door?" Grisha's eyes were clear, and he didn't seem to be thinking about anything. He just asked this simply.
"Do you want me to open it?" Liuli threw the question back.
"Not really," Grisha answered honestly, "so I'll drive it."
He walked forward a few steps and opened the door. Standing outside was a man in black casual clothes. He wore plain glasses and his eyes were clear and cold, as if he was observing some inorganic matter.
"Grisha." Grisha spoke first and stretched out his hand.
"Chu Xuan." Chu Xuan pushed his glasses, stretched out his hand, and shook hands with him briefly.
These two people do have some similarities, including high IQs, being researchers, being hardcore ruthless, and both dating the same woman. Then, they broke up? And then there was no next relationship...
And now it’s awesome.
Grisha looked at Chu Xuan for a moment, moved away from the door and let someone in.
Liuli was actually a little embarrassed when she met Chu Xuan. She thought that she and Chu Xuan did not have that close a relationship.
If there was indeed a romantic and unforgettable past between her and Grisha, then her relationship with Chu Xuan was more like a relationship ordered by the emperor.
Chu Xuan is an artificial human from the Longyin Base. Because his genes have been modified and excessive emphasis has been placed on mental toughness, he does not have some of the chemical secretion systems that a normal person should have.
He will not feel sad or happy, will not feel fear or terror, and will not even want to do X.
Such a being naturally would not love others.
Liuli and he started dating because of a commission from Longyin Base, Professor Chu and Chu Xuan himself. They wanted to know whether androids could have normal, human-like emotions.
Because an existence completely lacking in emotions is truly terrifying. Moreover, if it can be proved that artificial humans can also acquire human emotions through learning like humans, this can also prove the transcendence of their learning ability.
The base commissioned the project with a research mindset. Coincidentally, Liuli had a clean background and had known Professor Chu and Chu Xuan since childhood. She was an expert at romance and had enough exes to film several iterations of 300 Spartans. She was a rare actress.
He is simply a chosen talent.
Professor Chu, as the scientist who developed Chu Xuan, and as a father, entrusted Liuli with his task. He hoped that Chu Xuan could have human emotions, love people and things, and know what happiness and sadness were...
In this way, his life as a human being will not be too boring.
Even though he was born as an artificial human, the moment he was actually born, he was already a real person.
Everyone should have the right to be happy and joyful, and the right to love and be loved.
As for Chu Xuan, he was the one who was arranged. He didn't even feel curious or expectant, so how could he have any thoughts about it?
Liuli herself didn't have any expectations for this. If she really liked Chu Xuan, she didn't like him that much. Although she was indeed a sapiosexual, it was too difficult to win over Chu Xuan, and she never wanted to make things difficult for herself.
The purpose of falling in love is to be happy. If you are not happy, what is the point of falling in love?
In short, due to a series of special circumstances, the two of them were ordered to be together, but the days they spent together were actually quite interesting.
Together they went to the Gobi Desert to watch the sunrise and sunset, went to Antarctica to see penguins, went to Finland to see the northern lights, and also sat quietly on the lawn of the base to watch the stars.
Chu Xuan would tell the names and origins of the stars one by one. Sometimes, when Liuli felt sleepy, she would just rest her head on his legs and fall asleep.
Chu Xuan also knew that he should carry her back to the room in the base at this time, leave a night light on when leaving, and cover her with a blanket.
Just like she knew that Chu Xuan liked to eat brightly colored food and also liked fishing.
Thinking about it this way, they weren't too unfamiliar, although no matter how you think about it, they didn't seem that close.
So, there is absolutely no need to be nervous. Aren’t these two my ex-boyfriends who I broke up with a long time ago and haven’t seen for decades?
We are not familiar with each other anymore!
Thinking of this, Liuli's smile became more genuine. She simply introduced him directly, "This is Grisha, now serving as God, my ex-boyfriend."
"This is Chu Xuan, currently serving as Hongjun, and also my ex-boyfriend."
"Do you two have anything else to say? If you do, let's talk in the living room. I'm going to find a room to sleep in. If I don't sleep at this hour, I'm going to have dark circles under my eyes tomorrow."
"Wait..." Chu Xuan looked over, and in his eyes, he seemed to be completely unaware of Liuli's appearance and past changes.
She is still the willful and selfish girl as before, and he is still the wooden man who has no idea of romance in her eyes.
"I didn't agree to break up." Chu Xuan defended himself seriously, "Breaking up is like getting married. Both parties need to agree. Without my consent, you could only go abroad to relax."
After saying that, he pushed his glasses and looked at Grisha. Emotions were still not something he was good at, but he was still good at attacking.
"So, he can only be considered the third party, or the ninth party?"
Grisha wasn't angry about this. He smiled and replied slowly, "Even divorces require compulsory litigation. Who said that a breakup requires mutual consent?"
"It's amazing that he can be so persistent and yet still speak so confidently."
Chu Xuan frowned and looked at him, "Aren't you still clinging to me? At least from what I understand, you two haven't gotten back together yet."
"Besides, we can only stay here for seven days at most. What's the point of getting back together?"
Meaning...what meaning is needed...
When does reconciliation have any meaning? Isn't it natural to want to pursue your wife?
Grisha brushed himself off and calmly asked, "If it's meaningless, then what are you doing here?"
Chu Xuan said calmly: "I'm taking this opportunity to give a gift to my girlfriend who is surviving alone in another world, and I hope she won't be angry with me."
"If she agrees, we can get married right away, and I'll take the property."
After saying this, he turned to look at Liuli, who was drinking milk and listening to their conversation. Noticing Chu Xuan's gaze, she smiled naturally.
It seemed that watching two people arguing over her was not something worth worrying about.
Chu Xuan placed his clenched hand in front of him and opened his palm. In the palm of his hand was a silver ring.
"The space ring contains some things. Most of them are prepared by me, and a small part is given to you by some people I know."
"Before this, a friend of mine told me to say what I wanted to say when I saw you."
Chu Xuan coughed twice, as if he was making some preparations. Looking at him, Liuli even suspected that he had rehearsed what he was going to say in advance.
"Liuli, I like you very much, or should I say, I love you very much."
"Emotions like this existed before I had any."
"Although I can't conduct scientific testing, and this is just my unfounded inference, I believe that it is precisely because of my love for you that I have such emotions."
"I love you more than all the mysteries in the world, because you are the puzzle that I cannot solve."
