Chapter 788: Trouble Came Knocking
When he heard that Su Wan wanted to visit Nono, Jiang Xuecheng subconsciously frowned.
Su Wan’s slender fingers tugged at Jiang Xuecheng’s sleeve. Her eyes were slightly red, and that dejected look of hers made Jiang Xuecheng feel a little pitiful.
It seemed that as long as he saw that Su Wan was dejected, he would not have the heart to refuse any of her requests.
However, it was really not suitable for Su Wan to visit Nono now…
The materials for the silver tear mine had already been obtained, but the new metal sh.e.l.l had not been made yet. Now, Nono’s appearance was simply too horrible to look at!
The memory memory chip was already faulty, so it would definitely not remember who Su Wan was. If Su Wan were to see Nono’s broken body again, she would probably only be stabbed twice in the heart!
Jiang Xuecheng’s voice was low and gentle as he tried his best to convince Su Wan.
“Wan Wan, Nono Xin’s machine sh.e.l.l hasn’t been repaired yet, and it doesn’t remember you. It might not be suitable for you to see it now. Why don’t you wait for a while…”
Su Wan heard Jiang Xuecheng’s words, but she stubbornly shook her head.
“I really want to see it. I really, really want to see it.”
Nono was such a good robot. Even if the memory chip was faulty and it did not remember her, Su Wan felt that she could become friends with Nono again.
Jiang Xuecheng felt helpless when he heard that. He reached out and pinched Su Wan’s cheek. In the end, he took a step back and agreed.
“Okay, I’ll agree to it. But it’s too late today. Let’s go and see it tomorrow?”
Su Wan opened her mouth, wanting to fight for the chance to see it now. However, Jiang Xuecheng’s words blocked her path.
“I already said that there’s no rush. If you really want to see it today, then you have to promise me that no matter what you do in the future, you have to listen to me.”
Su Wan immediately shut her mouth when she heard that.
If she waited for a night, then she would wait for a night. Once she fell asleep, she would be able to see Nono.
Just like what Jiang Xuecheng said, even if Nono’s memory chip faulty, as long as it was not completely corrupted, it would still be possible for it to be repaired.
Su Wan firmly believed that she and Nono could still become bosom friends and rely on each other.
…
That night, Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan slept together. The two of them quietly closed their eyes. Su Wan felt that it was difficult for her to fall asleep because she had too many things on her mind.
She looked at the clear moonlight outside the window and began to pray silently for Nono.
Nono, you have to be okay, alright?
All kinds of fragments from the time she met Nono flashed through her mind. Each scene was sad and sweet.
Cute little robot, are you okay?
With all kinds of thoughts in her mind, it was harder for Su Wan to fall asleep. She could only count sheep to hypnotize herself. After counting countless sheep, Su Wan finally fell into a deep sleep.
There were no dreams for one night. When she woke up the next day, the pillow was empty. There was no dent on the other pillow.
Su Wan was stunned. She quickly changed into a clean set of clothes, and got up to look for her shoes.
“Xuecheng–”
Su Wan tried to call out, but there was no response.
She rubbed her sleepy eyes and struggled to look at the wall clock on the wall.
Su Wan was thinking about how early Jiang Xuecheng got up. However, when she saw the time, she was the first to be stunned!
Oh G.o.d, it was almost time for lunch!
Jiang Xuecheng didn’t even wake her up!
Su Wan felt a little embarra.s.sed. She immediately ran to the bathroom and began to brush her teeth and wash her face in a hurry.
Just when Su Wan was was.h.i.+ng her face with cleansing water, she suddenly heard a teasing male voice from outside the bathroom.
“Little sloth, you’re finally up?”
Just by hearing the voice, she did not need to go out to see that the person was undoubtedly Jiang Xuecheng.
Su Wan’s face turned red. She wrung the towel dry and immediately ran outside to scold Jiang Xuecheng.
“It’s already so late, and you didn’t even wake me.”
“I saw that someone was sleeping too soundly, so I didn’t have the face to call her.”
Jiang Xuecheng’s handsome eyebrows slightly raised, but the meaning behind his words made Su Wan even more embarra.s.sed.
Su Wan could only use her power to glare at Jiang Xuecheng, but she did not know what to say.
“Little lazy worm, are you hungry?”
Jiang Xuecheng suddenly stretched his hand forward, as if wanting to hold Su Wan’s hand. Su Wan was about to argue, but she immediately said that she was not hungry.
However, a couple of seconds after she said that, her stomach made a rumbling sound.
Jiang Xuecheng laughed out loud. He did not try to hide the mischievous look on his face.
“So, not only is a certain person lazy, she’s also a liar.”
When Su Wan heard this, she was extremely embarra.s.sed. She had no choice but to lower her head in embarra.s.sment, trying to figure out where she could crawl into.
However, Jiang Xuecheng immediately grabbed Su Wan’s hand and led her out of the door without any explanation.
“Let’s go, little liar. Count it as me being kindhearted today. I’ll take you out to eat.”
Su Wan was speechless when she heard that. Was she being accused twice just like that?
“I’m not a liar.”
Su Wan bared her teeth at Jiang Xuecheng. She was like a kitten that had been forced to explode.
Jiang Xuecheng held Su Wan’s hand and refused to let go. Then, he gave Su Wan a very rude glance.
“A certain someone cheated me of my heart and hasn’t returned it yet. How dare you say that you’re not a liar?”
Su Wan did not expect that Jiang Xuecheng would suddenly say such words of love so naturally!
However, when she looked at Jiang Xuecheng’s handsome face, the first thing that came to Su Wan’s mind was not frivolity. Instead, she stupidly agreed with him.
“Am I not the same?”
Hadn’t her heart been stolen by Jiang Xuecheng a long time ago?
When had it ever come back?!
After Su Wan said that, she regretted it. A narcissistic person like Jiang Xuecheng was too proud for her to be a little better to him.
How could she agree with him?!
“Just now was a joke…”
Su Wan wanted to say that she was joking, but before she could say the last word, Jiang Xuecheng suddenly reached out a finger and pressed it against her lips.
“Wan Wan, I’m very happy to hear that.”
Su Wan was stunned, but Jiang Xuecheng lowered his head and took her breath away.
This kiss made her heart beat faster…
After a long time, their lips parted.
Both Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan were in a good mood. They went to eat together and then went to see Nono according to their plan.
…
When Su Wan saw Nono, her heart ached. She suddenly understood why Jiang Xuecheng said that he wanted her to come in the future instead.
Due to the harsh weather on Planet Allen, Nono’s surface was already very old. At this moment, it was even worse.
The rusty metal surface was riddled with bullet holes. No one would believe that Nono wasn’t destroyed.
Seeing Nono’s miserable state, Su Wan’s eyes turned hot again.
It was all her fault…
Jiang Xuecheng reached out and put his arm around Su Wan’s shoulder, comforting her gently.
“Don’t be too sad. Nono will definitely be fixed.”
Just as the two of them were talking, they suddenly heard a commotion not far away.
“Didn’t you say that His Highness is here?! I want to see him!”
