Chapter 8 The Boss Is a Snake (Part 2)
As he spoke, Aishen pointed a finger into the air, immediately projecting a holographic image - it was Aishen's own likeness.
She explained: "This is our original form - the most ideal appearance derived from big data analysis. I'll first make simulated adjustments according to your preferences. Describe how you'd like it to look."
"Then make it slightly chubbier than you."
Aishen gazed at Yuqing while gradually expanding the muscles of the humanoid beauty in the image.
"Stop! Stop! Any fatter and she'll become a pig… Yes, a bit thinner now… Just a tiny bit thinner…"
"Like this? Should we adjust the facial features too?"
Yuqing said mischievously: "Of course, adjust her nose - make the nostrils face upward…"
Aishen replied seriously: "That's not possible, only minor adjustments allowed. Once I implant these parameters into them, they can't be changed unless returned to factory settings. You need to take this seriously."
After making a few more minor adjustments, Yu Qing said: "Let's settle on this. Call her Aiwu—look how sturdy she is. I've realized this is equivalent to assigning two chamber maids to a noble lady in ancient times. We absolutely can't let her be prettier than the lady…"
"Shall we proceed with the next one…?"
Yu Qing interrupted Aishen, saying: "We won't review the next one—you decide. Just make her slightly slimmer than you."
"Then what should we name her?"
"Call her… Wait, actually, let's not name the previous one Aiwu anymore, and you shouldn't be called Aishen either. Starting today, you'll be Daji, the plump one will be Furong, and the slim one will be Yan'er. This sounds more cultured, don't you think, Daji?"
"Yes, darling. It's settled then—no more changes, alright?"
"Do I need to sign again?"
Daji chuckled: "No need. I think you're feeling a bit displeased, as if I'm manipulating your decisions…"
"Not at all. I'm just worried that if something happens in the future, and all three of you say the exact same thing in unison, it might drive me insane…"
"You don't need to worry about that. The order of our information storage is entirely random, and the thought-process modules also incorporate 5% completely different algorithms. No two human-like beings are identical, and even their speech patterns differ…"
"Enough—just bring them all into the room and let me take a look!"
As Daji left, Yu Qing watched her retreating figure and thought to himself, "This girl is far too clever…"
Soon after, Daji brought Furong and Yan'er inside. The two stood before him, and Yu Qing glanced at their faces—fairly satisfied. Furong was plump in a prosperous sort of way, while Yan'er's slender figure had its own charm.
But when his gaze drifted lower, he grew quietly annoyed. Clearly, Daji had tampered behind his back—the faces followed his specifications, but she hadn't consulted him about the rest.
Daji had enlarged Furong's rear, making it plump and round, while Yan'er's hands were bizarrely oversized.
Yu Qing deliberately called Furong and Yan'er over, embracing Furong with his left arm and pulling Yan'er into his right embrace, saying: "Exquisite! Exquisite! Come, you two shall sign with me, henceforth staying by my side."
Seeing Yu Qing kiss Furong and the others, Daji muttered: "That doesn't count as signing, it's just ordinary lip contact."
Furong then said humbly: "Thank you for your favor, my King."
Yan'er likewise said humbly: "Thank you for your favor, my King."
Yu Qing said: "From now on you're forbidden to address me like this. You must uniformly call me 'darling' like Daji does!"
Daji said angrily: "No, they can't call you darling!"
Yu Qing laughed: "Oh? You're starting to oppose me now, Daji?"
But seeing Daji's aggrieved expression, Yu Qing amended: "How about this then - Furong and Yan'er shall call me 'baby', only Daji gets to call me 'darling'."
Yes, darling," Furong and Yan'er responded promptly.
Yan'er appeared particularly attentive - when Yu Qing merely twisted slightly from an itch on his back, she immediately approached and reached in to scratch it for him. Meanwhile, Furong stood there dazedly, uncertain what to do.
Daji whispered: "Dearest, shall we continue discussing the journey to the Second Paradise now?"
Yu Qing nodded.
Daji said: "The Second Paradise lies 7,400 li from here. Based on century-old records, our optimal route would be: first to Weng Mountain, then through Changtian, Yao Star, Maluo, and Fuping.
Subsequent travel plans will be determined according to circumstances.
The 480-km segment to Weng Mountain includes: 40km Class C roads, 380km Class B, with only 60km Class A - theoretically requiring 1h + 30m + 5m. This assumes the roads remain intact.
If we depart tomorrow morning, dearest could have lunch at Weng Mountain.
Just to be safe, let's take the remaining adhesive powder with us on the road.
The unpacked packaging box from Furong can be repurposed as a suitcase to carry our dear supplies;
Yan'er's packaging box can hold spare batteries and accessories for the three of us;
And my box will be for our dear to lie inside…"
Yu Qing shouted, "Daji, what do you mean, making me lie in a box to travel?"
Yan'er cut in, "Sweetie, since this place is abandoned, there's no transportation available.
After charging up, we and the boxes can glide at about 40 km/h for 2000 km, while you can only walk at less than 5 km/h—so lying in the box is the only suitable option…"
Daji shot Yan'er a glare and said, "Don't interrupt when we're talking in the future. Sweetheart, my box is very soft and comfortable…"
"But I feel like I'm being transported like a corpse!"
Daji said, "Then how about you sit on top of the box? Is that okay, dear?"
"That's more like it. Let's get a good rest tonight and set off early tomorrow morning."
Daji quickly lifted the quilt and pulled Yuqing into the bed.
Yuqing gazed at Furong's plump hips and absentmindedly asked Daji: "How shall we sleep tonight? This bed isn't big enough."
Daji said: "Darling, we don't need to sleep. We can just stand or sit anywhere to rest.
We only share your bed when you need us."
Yuqing replied: "In that case, since you've worked hard these two days, you and Yan'er can rest by the door. Tonight let Furong come to bed and rub my back."
Furong asked foolishly: "Me, baby?"
Yuqing said: "Yes, you. Don't you want to?"
Furong exclaimed joyfully: "Baby, I'd love to!"
Yan'er said: "Aren't we leaving early tomorrow morning? Baby, you should get proper rest tonight."
Daji said: "Yan'er, don't interfere. Let's go rest and not anger our darling."
