Hearing Xiao Ai’s words, Si Tian was stunned.
“What? Are you leaving?”
“Didn’t you say that the duration of the mission was sixteen years?”
At that time, Si Tian never imagined that one day she would retain the system. But she had been with Xiao Ai for such a long time.
When she first arrived in this world, she had no original memories. Everything she came into contact with was strange, so she felt uneasy in her heart.
Xiao Ai was like her guide in this world. Although they got along a bit stumbling at the beginning, they became more and more harmonious later on. Si Tian felt that Xiao Ai was like a friend of hers.
She could talk to Xiao Ai anytime and anywhere, and Xiao Ai would respond to her and give her advice, although it may not be useful.
It was not like a cold robot. It had emotions.
Xiao Ai sighed: [Because our work is too busy and we don’t have enough manpower. Once the host’s mission is on track, we will accept new missions.]
[I know that the host can’t let me go. I can’t let go of the host either.]
Woo, woo, after all, this was its first job.
It had experienced hardships and happiness. It had surfed the Internet secretly countless times, but as a system, it had no emotions, only work.
Si Tian was silent for a few seconds and said in a sad tone, “Then, I wish you smooth sailing in the future, and you will be promoted every step of the way.”
Xiao Ai: [I wish my next bound’s host would be gentle and obedient.]
Si Tian: “…Hmm.”
“Let’s go.” Si Tian said.
She had known that separation was a required course in life.
Xiao Ai: [Well, it’s actually not leaving.]
[It’s just… I will not unbind from the host. The host will be my host until the day when the main mission actually ends.]
Xiao Ai explained: [I just won’t urge the host to complete the daily tasks every day or chat with the host like before. But when the host needs me, the host just needs to call me, and I will still come back.]
Si Tian: “Well…” (T/N: Give me back my sad feeling!)
This feeling was a bit subtle as if she was already ready to say goodbye and her mood already felt lost, but suddenly she was told that it didn’t leave.
It was a bit like wanting to divorce your husband, but your husband suddenly said that he did not divorce you and that he just went to the mistress’s house. If you called him in the future, he would come back to see you when he was free.
No, no! This metaphor was a bit inappropriate. Si Tian was not so possessive that she would not allow Xiao Ai to do other work, but it was… subtle.
Xiao Ai was still nagging and said: [From now on, the host will have to do daily tasks by herself. I will not remind the host again. Oh, by the way, there are other daily tasks, such as kissing the child good night, making breakfast for the child, accompanying the child to do homework, playing games with the child… The types of daily tasks are all here.]
[In the future, the host can choose to do daily tasks according to her own choice but remember to do them every day, check-in, you know. Also, the host’s health value had been accumulated for three years. So, the host does not need to worry. If there is any abnormality, I will still come back, but 99% of it will not happen.]
[From now on, the host must live a good life without me and be positive. Although Ji Ningyi and Ji Zhile are not crooked now, this child was the most rebellious in adolescence, so the host must be prepared in advance…]
Si Tian looked at Ji Zhile, who was currently three and a half years old and was concentrating on picking out the minced garlic from the dishes, and Ji Ningyi, who was almost seven years old and was not picky about eating. She thought that puberty was not so fast.
But Xiao Ai really thought too far, so Si Tian hummed twice: “I know.”
Xiao Ai reluctantly said: [The new mission will be issued before midnight tonight. Before then, I will accompany the host.]
Si Tian hissed: “Xiao Ai, doesn’t your system have any rest time?”
Xiao Ai said: [We are always on standby.]
Si Tian sighed lightly. The system work was really not easy, even more difficult than them.
But, Xiao Ai didn’t feel that it was being squeezed. They were originally created by the main system. After binding to the host, their rest time would follow the host’s schedule, but they would not die suddenly. The AI will not die, and the data will be saved forever.
