After a brief pause, Chu Ze immediately understood Ruan Mei's meaning.
A member of the esteemed Genius Society couldn't possibly be so forward, let alone the famously emotionally detached Ruan Mei.
Therefore, the meaning she was trying to convey was immediately clear.
"So you just wanted me to take off my clothes for the upcoming experiment."
Chu Ze said with a smile:
"I thought you were just lusting after my body. Please don't use such easily misunderstood lines next time."
But Ruan Mei shook her head slightly:
"No, I am just lusting after your body."
"?"
Wait, sis, are you serious?
Not even three sentences into our meeting, and we're already fast-forwarding to the 'training' scene?
Ruan Mei took elegant steps, slowly arriving in front of Chu Ze, and directly reached out her hand.
Chu Ze took a deep breath:
"Can't be helped. Although even I think this progress is a bit fast."
"But if this is the price of the experiment, then I'll have to apologize to Sis Ta..."
"Don't speak just yet."
Ruan Mei took off her gloves, lifted his shirt, and explored the upper body muscles before her.
The texture of every muscle was gently brushed by the woman's fingertips.
As if stroking a precious experimental instrument, her cool face seemed to show a barely perceptible flicker of interest.
After a long while, she finally withdrew her small hand and turned her gaze to Chu Ze's eyes:
"Nice body, feels good to touch."
So it was just touching.
Chu Ze sighed softly, seemingly a little disappointed:
"So it really was just for the experiment, to collect body data in advance."
Ruan Mei looked straight into his eyes:
"No, I just simply wanted to touch."
"For such a masculine Stellaron host, isn't it normal to be interested?"
"......"
It always felt like their conversation was somewhat disconnected.
As if their circuits weren't matching up at all, Chu Ze found it a bit hard to keep up with Ruan Mei's rhythm.
To make an analogy, it was like facing a person floating on a cloud, with no idea where she would land next.
But it didn't matter. The important thing wasn't the conversation, but the result of the experiment.
So Chu Ze raised his own question:
"Under normal circumstances, I'm happy to have intimate contact with a beautiful woman."
"But before that, I'm more interested in your biological science experiments."
Ruan Mei didn't look away, still meeting his gaze:
"Have you had new questions recently?"
"Yes."
Chu Ze told her everything that had happened with Stelle recently, including the inexplicably strong attraction between the two of them.
Just being in close proximity was like taking a powerful aphrodisiac, making it impossible to pull away. This was not a normal situation by any means.
Of course, this action had been approved by Stelle, so it wasn't him actively leaking her privacy.
"Mhm, I have a general understanding of the situation."
"Follow me, let's go to my laboratory first."
Ruan Mei turned and walked towards the depths of the somewhat dim cabin.
Chu Ze decisively followed, and by the way, was about to put his shirt back down.
But Ruan Mei stopped him:
"Don't put it down. I still want to touch."
"......"
After a slight pause, Chu Ze directly took off his shirt, intending to let her have her fill.
Should he say, as expected of a member of the eccentric Genius Society?
Why are both of them so strange...
...
...
The process of his memory loss, and the reason for the mysterious allure of the Stellaron-infused.
These were the two questions Chu Ze wanted Ruan Mei's help in answering.
He had thought that these two questions could only be answered after complex experiments.
He didn't expect that before even entering the laboratory, just on the way, Ruan Mei had already made progress.
"Body structure is normal, life fluctuations are normal, no abnormalities in the body."
Her slender fingers were still pressed against Chu Ze's chest.
Although she said she was interested, there was no fluctuation to be seen on Ruan Mei's indifferent expression:
"According to research on the Stellaron previously captured by Herta, regardless of whether it is in a host or not, it itself does not exhibit any special conditions."
"So my conclusion is that the enchanting behavior between you and Stelle actually has nothing to do with the Stellaron."
"Or rather, it only has a very small part to do with it."
Chu Ze was puzzled:
"Then what's our situation? Did we just simply hit it off?"
Ruan Mei thought for a moment, then concluded:
"Perhaps your Path fluctuations are quite special, more likely to trigger imaginary variables, having a higher status and..."
"I don't understand. Requesting a translation into plain language."
"Mhm..."
The woman tilted her head slightly:
"To use a Xianzhou novel as an analogy, you are like the [Children of Fortune], the [protagonist's fate] in the story."
"You are both people with great fortune, and you are also members of the opposite sex who are attracted to each other. The intertwining of your fortunes, coupled with the sense of closeness brought by the Stellaron itself, ultimately leads to the current situation."
Ah, that makes sense.
Transitioning from science fiction to fantasy, Chu Ze immediately showed an expression of sudden realization.
He knew that Stelle was the protagonist.
But what was surprising was that he could also be associated with the so-called protagonist's fate.
Was it because of the influence of his reincarnation? Or was it a trope similar to the recent trend of "thinking you're a side character but actually having strong luck yourself" where a side character becomes the protagonist?
Chu Ze thought for a long time and felt that this was probably not something that could be figured out by wild guessing, so he decisively gave up thinking.
"In other words, this situation of mutual enchantment can only occur between me and my little sister."
"Even if a new Stellaron-infused person appears in the future, it's impossible for them to come between us and stage some disgusting NTR trope?"
"Right."
Ruan Mei nodded gently.
Now Chu Ze was relieved.
It turned out that the interweaving of his and Stelle's fates did not come from an external object, but from their own instincts.
Thinking of it this way was much more comfortable.
"By the way, the reason I'm interested in you is for a similar reason."
Ruan Mei said in a calm voice:
"Herta's childhood friend; able to arouse the desires of an Emanator of Erudition; a mysterious memory that is difficult to recover; a Stellaron personally bestowed by the Aeon of Destruction; maintained in balance by the Aeon of Joy; and an extremely special Path fluctuation..."
"Any one of these traits alone is enough to qualify you to lie on my experimental table."
"And you, who have integrated all these characteristics, are worthy of me accommodating all your requests..."
Her steps stopped.
Ruan Mei extended her hand and tapped on the console next to her.
With the lighting up of the light source, the room before him came into Chu Ze's view.
The huge laboratory was clean and tidy, with various unnamable instruments arranged in an orderly manner. The guard robots at the door had red glowing eyes, and a series of closed doors tightly guarded the secrets here.
"We're here."
Ruan Mei turned her head sideways, her moon-like, clear and beautiful face showing a very faint smile:
"This is my laboratory in the space station."
"I hope you... can make me feel satisfied and fulfilled."
