CHAPTER 462: CHAPTER 156 STEWED RAW KNOCK (PART 3)

"Hmm hmm!" 2569 walked to Du Xixi’s side, circled around her, and its electronic screen showed an expression of being on the verge of tears, "2569 has been saving up for so long!"

indeed has a "childish" personality. When it can work, it’s definitely among the top household robots, but most of the time, it can’t work and needs everyone to coax it like a child.

Du Xixi treats it like a child—occasionally coaxing it to do some physical work—so 2569 behaves quite childishly in front of Du Xixi, secretly taking the little snacks Du Xixi makes to expand its private stash.

Of course, 2569’s ability to hide its stash isn’t very good; Du Xixi and the others have known about it for a long time but just don’t mention it. Sometimes, they even secretly help it "expand the stash" like teasing a child.

Du Xixi held Er Er with one hand and patted 2569’s furry body with the other, laughingly saying, "Don’t be sad. Next time he comes over, you drag him to make snacks, and they’ll all count as your ’private stash.’ How about that?"

"Hmm..." 2569 pondered for a moment, its electronic screen switched to a happy expression, but soon it turned into a conflicted soybean face, "Wouldn’t it be inappropriate? Master Mo Feng comes as a guest."

"Ah!" Er Er’s little face was seriously composed. At this moment, looking at 2569, there was a hint of resentment hidden in his eyes, like "hating iron for not becoming steel." Even Er Er couldn’t stand it anymore and was eager to persuade 2569.

Du Xixi just smiled, gently poked his chubby cheek, and then coaxed 2569, "Fengzi comes over, but stays the night? But eats? But takes your stash without any courtesy?"

"He does all that!" 2569 replied blankly.

"That’s right!" Du Xixi didn’t think there was any guilt in fooling a robot, instead, she became interested, and under Ke Xing’s amused laughter, she raised an eyebrow, "He’s so impolite with our family, it’s obvious he’s not an outside guest anymore. He’s a part of our family!"

seemed to short-circuit for a moment, and its electronic screen flashed a lot of gibberish, "Is...that so?"

"Of course it is!" Du Xixi’s face was full of sincerity, which made 2569 short-circuit even more. It felt that what Du Xixi just said was somewhat illogical, but the program required it to obey Du Xixi unconditionally, so its robot brain was a mess of gibberish.

Du Xixi didn’t miss this great opportunity, forcefully patted 2569’s shoulder, her tone carried the most expectation that 2569 couldn’t refuse, "As a part of our family, there’s no need to be polite to him, right?"

"No need!" 2569 shouted in despair. It felt like its gibberish seemed to increase, but after shouting those two words, it felt like its program "woke up."

"Master Mo Feng is one of us! I’m going to unceremoniously ask him to help in the kitchen!"

"Well said!" Ke Xing said. He had seen many brainwashed criminals and had even personally tried brainwashing dangerous individuals, but he never expected to witness a "human brainwashing a robot" historical moment!

Moreover, it was actually successful!

It’s really...

It’s really too funny!

Ke Xing’s laughter was almost uncontrollable. Yi Yi, who was held in his arms, was startled by his grandfather’s maniacal laughter, frozen in his arms, daring not to move. Once he confirmed that the "madman" holding him was Ke Xing, he hesitated before reaching out to tug on one of Ke Xing’s beard hairs.

With a tug, a hair "popped" right out, turning Ke Xing’s laughter into a sharp intake of breath from the pain.

"Ah!" Seeing that his grandpa had "returned to normal," Yi Yi immediately grinned, and his right hand, thumb and forefinger pinched tightly together, was holding a gray hair.

Yes, the hair he had just yanked from Ke Xing’s chin was still fresh.

"Hahaha!"

This time it was Du Xixi who laughed.

Du Xixi couldn’t remember how long she laughed, only that she seemed to laugh until her stomach hurt. Seeing Ke Xing’s old face almost embarrassed to the ground, she regained some composure and headed to the kitchen while clutching her stomach.

"Dad, I’ll go, I’ll go make something delicious." Du Xixi made something delicious every day, but today it was clearly an excuse. She was worried that if she stayed any longer, crow’s feet would form from laughing so hard.

With the kitchen door closed, Ke Xing couldn’t see Du Xixi collapsing with laughter again inside, but he could look down and see Yi Yi’s silly smiling face. He sighed helplessly, took the hair from Yi Yi’s hand, and said softly, "Yi Yi, you really are a good grandson!"

Yi Yi didn’t know what Ke Xing meant by that; he was a bit unhappy when he saw the "little toy" he was holding disappear but noticed his brother sitting on the floor pinching his little feet, so he just wanted to play with Er Er.

The little beard hair he had just pulled out had already been forgotten.
