BXBX NOVEL Chapter 4
Chapter 4
Editor: SimoB
Yin Mingzheng was like a bird with its wings caught.
His hands were bound, and there were several tonnes of weight on his legs. Forget escaping, he couldn’t even get up.
But he didn’t give up.
The hero kept struggling under Shi Qing, as if he wanted to wriggle his way out.
Like he was doing sit ups, he kept going at it. Even when he failed and fell onto the bed, he was trying again the next second.
So Shi Qing got a front row seat as this man, who suited his tastes, raised his muscular pecs to his face again and again.
[This is a blatant honey trap.] He exercised his questionable vocabulary with the System. [He’s demonstrating his charisma to me. Pah, men.]
System: I don’t want to talk.
Shi Qing watched as sweat began to appear on the handsome man’s forehead , which only served to further accentuate his features.
“You look so nice.” He couldn’t disguise the admiration in his eyes: “You’re so strong and beautiful. Our baby will definitely be powerful as well.”
Yin Mingzheng saw that Shi Qing was about to unzip his clothes using his mouth, and he panted: “Wait–”
He needed a moment to catch his breath from his previous exertions. His mind was blank, but he managed to squeeze out a sentence: “Do you know how humans ****?”
Yin Mingzheng was just shooting in the dark. On the battlefield, he had had the (mis)fortune to see several different mating rituals of the Insect race. Head to head, hand to hand, you name it. There were as many variations as there were species. But one thing was for certain: no Insects reproduced exactly like humans did.
If the Insect race was like that, then Shi Qing’s race should be the same.
As expected, Shi Qing who was pressing him to death paused. His silver eyes were somewhat lost. “Don’t we put your part and my part together?”
“When I first came to Earth I saw human ***. First you have to take off your clothes, then we can combine parts.”
Phew.
Yin Mingzheng breathed a sigh of relief in his mind,
Having gotten a chance to calm down, his mind turned at a breakneck pace.
The most important thing right now was to delay *** by any means necessary. He could look for an opportunity to escape later.
Armed with a plan, Yin Mingzheng coughed dryly: “Shi Qing, you’ve only got some of it right. There is a series of events that need to come before. Human relationships are very, very complex. How about this? If you get off of me right now I’ll explain it to you in detail.”
The ever responsible System jumped out: [Host he’s trying to deceive you!!]
Shi Qing: [I know. Don’t you think he looks good while doing it?]
System: [......]
It silently went to order a noise cancelling machine from HQ. There was no way it was going to let itself be infected by the glib and evil human race.
Yin Mingzheng was still speaking: “You say that we’re companions. Companions need to treat each other with respect. If you want to **** me, then you need to follow Earth’s procedure for doing so, right?”
The seemingly inexperienced alien blinked and nodded. It looks like he was listening.
He slowly lowered his ear to the man’s heart again. His voice was very warm: “Okay, I’ll do as you say. Tell me the procedure on Earth and I’ll follow it.”
Yin Mingzheng felt relieved but also somewhat guilty for lying to someone who seemed as innocent as Shi Qing.
He had never lied to any human on the base, but he was betrayed in the end.
Shi Qing, on the other hand, was an alien that soaked up his every word like a sponge.
As regret settled in his heart, Yin Mingzheng shifted his upper body in discomfort.
It might just be him, but he felt like Shi Qing’s hand was feeling him up. Although it didn’t hurt or itch, the shirt he was wearing wasn’t very thick. Yin Mingzheng almost felt like the other person was touching the muscles under his clothes.
But the alien teen seemed to know nothing about this stuff, so Yin Mingzheng couldn’t tell him to knock it off. After failing to redirect the conversation, he endured the hand playing with his ‘outfit’.
Maybe he was curious about the clothing of humans?
[Ding! Yin Mingzheng animosity value 98/100]
The System was happy enough to send up fireworks: [Congratulations, congratulations Host! May you live for tens of thousands of years and conquer the Jianghu.]
Shi Qing: [He feels so good.]
System: [......]
No problem. Not a problem at all.
As long as the task is done well, it could accept any shameless words that threatened to corrupt its pure mind.
Yin Mingzheng was still trying to coax the teen off of him: “Shi Qing, get up first. You’re too heavy and I can’t talk like this.”
“Then I’ll decrease my weight.” Saying so, Shi Qing made himself lighter.
The Robot race could freely control their weight. He deliberately set his to be heavier so that he could pin Yin Mingzheng down but without crushing him.
Yin Mingzheng was shocked to discover that the youth on top of him did in fact get lighter. But he still made no move to get off.
This was Shi Qing’s territory, and there were several high-quality androids in the room. No matter how uncomfortable Yin Mingzheng was with the idea of a ‘person’ on top of him, he had to let it be to avoid angering his captor.
“Didn’t you say you would explain the human’s procedure to ****? Hurry up. Tell me quickly so we can follow it.”
He thought for a long while on how to fool Shi Qing.
Just as he was constructing a plausible explanation, the youth that was obediently sitting on him suddenly met his eyes.
Shi Qing’s eyes were a silvery-white. Due to this, his silent stare was quite intimidating, despite his otherwise soft features.
“I know that humans like to lie a lot. Don’t lie to me because I’ll find out.”
His body seemed like it was boneless as it contoured itself against Yin Mingzheng’s. He could almost feel the inhumanly low temperature of the other through his clothes. And along with this slightly cool sensation, Shi Qing’s lips approached his ear as if to whisper a secret: “No one in the entire universe would dare to lie to the Robot race.”
Yin Mingzheng’s body subconsciously tightened. It was an automatic defense mechanism triggered by the presence of a dangerous enemy.
It was only now that he realized no matter how mild-mannered and harmless Shi Qing appeared to be, he was not human.
His guard should never have been let down.
[Yin Mingzheng animosity value 99/100]
The System was frightened by the rapidly shifting animosity value: [What do we do Host? It went up again! Why’d you spill the beans?!]
[This isn’t spilling the beans.] Shi Qing continued to stare steadily at Yin Mingzheng. He was very satisfied with his wary expression. [Did you think that I would continue acting soft to lower the animosity value? I’m supposedly part of the Robot race that’s feared throughout the galaxy. If I blindly agreed with everything Yin Mingzheng said, he could ‘fool’ me into using my army to drive away the Insect race. The animosity rate would’ve only lowered a bit, so how would I be able to guard him until the end of the storyline? Even if I do help out, it has to be after his animosity towards me drops.]
The enlightened System was still worried: [But if the Host doesn’t act soft, how will the animosity value drop?]
[There are lots of ways. I don’t intend to force his hand, I just need him to know who’s in charge between us.]
Shi Qing’s hand pressed the spot above Yin Mingzheng’s heart and found that it was beating rapidly. He shot a familiar smile at him: “You wouldn’t lie to me, right?”
Yin Mingzheng forced his furrowed brows to relax. He smiled as well: “Right. I’m your companion so there’s no way I’d lie to you.”
The System that watched the whole thing: Two big pig trotters.
Yin Mingzheng’s train of thought was derailed again by this fiasco. He knew now that the youth wasn’t as trusting as he had thought, which brought back the question of how to deceive him. His eyes suddenly alighted on the TV in the room.
“Shi Qing, I’ll find a romance drama for you to watch. It’s very similar to the procedure that humans have to follow.”
The inexperienced Yin Mingzheng confidently picked out a drama that he remembered being about a modern romance.
He wasn’t worried in the slightest that Shi Qing would learn something he shouldn’t from this.
These were all domestic dramas, so they had none of the intimate scenes of those from overseas.
He put in the disc and smiled at the youth again: “After watching this, you should understand the human procedures to ****.”
He glanced at the number of episodes and was even more reassured: “This series has 88 episodes. Why don’t you get started while I take a look around the ship? We’ll both get to know each other this way.”
“Okay.”
Shi Qing’s approval made him relax.
He was confident in his ability to escape given enough time.
88 episodes at 40 minutes apiece was enough to delay Shi Qing at least until tomorrow morning. He had plenty of time...
–Click.
The sound of electronics tapping together drew back Yin Mingzheng’s attention. He looked over and froze.
Shi Qing had already inserted his hand into the screen of the TV. His eyes were closed as if feeling something. Three seconds later, he withdrew his hand and turned to smile at Yin Mingzheng: “I’m done.”
Yin Mingzheng: “......”
He had forgotten that Shi Qing was a robot.
Before he could even speak, the alien youth had already pushed him to the ground.
Next, his left leg bent and he resumed the familiar position on Yin Mingzheng’s body. His lips came down without hesitation.
“Wait–”
Hearing the panic in Yin Mingzheng’s voice, the youth that looked fragile but actually weighed several tonnes obediently stopped and straightened. He blinked his eyes like he was confused.
“Was my posture incorrect?” He pushed his red lips out at Yin Mingzheng again: “I saw in that thing called a drama that humans have to do this. Isn’t putting my part together with yours a necessary step of the procedure to ****?”
Yin Mingzheng couldn’t wrap his head quickly enough around what he said. He saw the youth open his mouth and stick out a small portion of his red and soft tongue. His hand pointed towards it.
“Or are you saying that my small part isn’t good enough for you?”
After showing off his small part, he looked at Yin Mingzheng with a wronged expression.
“You’re so picky.”
