Pretty Miss

This day, 99 woke up quite late. When she opened her eyes, she found a super cute little lady standing by her small bed, gentle and beautiful. She liked her the moment she saw her.

"99, time to get up. I'll carry you now~"

Wow, her voice was so pleasant too. So, she extended her little short hands, and the lady picked her up, taking her to the window.

There, it had just been set up, a beautiful amusement park had been created, with lovely colors, very suitable for babies of this age to play in.

99 didn't think too deeply about why such a gentle and lovely lady would be there to accompany her. She thought the laboratory owner didn't want to take care of an infant's eating, drinking, and daily needs, so they hired someone.

So, she happily played with the lady. With the lady's company, 99 felt her days were much easier.

Wei Lanshan often watched 99's interactions with the companion robot on video.

Because 99 playing with the companion robot was particularly adorable.

The moments they spent together were happy times for one person and one robot.

Another month passed like this. This day, Wei Lanshan wanted to measure 99's physical data. When she reached the door, Wei Lanshan stopped.

In the laboratory, the companion robot was playing music for 99. 99, lying on the small bed, was listening with her eyes closed. Perhaps finding the music pleasant, her little hands couldn't help but wave along with the rhythm.

99 felt very comfortable. The music was inexplicably nice. Since that woman and the cold, large shell weren't around, she decided to relax properly. After listening for a short while, she felt drowsy, a smile lingering on her lips.

At this moment, the infant 99 hadn't realized that the impossibly beautiful woman before her was a machine. She thought she had received divine favor, and that heaven had bestowed a beautiful young lady upon her after she arrived here.

The lady was even willing to take care of her infant life, it was simply perfect. So, she particularly enjoyed her time with the beautiful lady.

Wei Lanshan found it very amusing seeing her comfortable, content, and drowsy expression. This tiny infant, with her bright eyes and rich expressions, was quite the performer.

The first time she, as a small child, was held by a robot, she was very happy and even reached out to touch the robot's face. Her small face showed an expression of disbelief and wonder. Wei Lanshan thought she might have been mistaken.

Because she knew that infants over four months old couldn't make many expressions, but the expression on 99's face at the time was clearly one of disbelief. So, she felt a new wave of doubt.

99 had been within her monitoring range since the embryonic stage, and there had been no errors in the process. The only difference between her and other infants was that she had been implanted with the M Virus gene during the embryonic stage.

Was it because of this reason that 99 was smarter than other infants?

However, the other four experimental subjects, who were of the same origin, were no different from ordinary infants. Why was it that only 99 developed so distinctively, with mental and physical capabilities exceeding those of ordinary people, and was also very intelligent? This made Wei Lanshan very puzzled.

Although she had never been a mother, she knew that for infants of a few months old, 99 at that time and now was simply too intelligent.

Wei Lanshan didn't delve deeper into these matters because she didn't want to focus her attention on 99, to avoid unnecessary emotional entanglement due to excessive contact.

Her connection with 99 wouldn't last long. After the experiment was successful, she would leave. The Ye family should handle the infants 95-99 on their own.

As for her talent, Wei Lanshan had no intention of informing Ye Yunhan about this anomaly.

If Ye Yunhan knew, he would definitely bring 99 back to the Ye family at all costs. In her current infant state, she wouldn't survive half a month under Ye Yunhan's wife, Tang Yongyu.

Ye Yunhan couldn't protect this infant at all times. Even if she were handed over to other Ye family members to raise, someone would always find an opportunity.

In a family like the Ye family, a child without a mother would find it difficult to reach adulthood.

This world was far more cruel than imagined. There were many hidden conflicts between galaxies, and internal strife within galactic families was even more common.

Regarding Ye Yunhan's wife, Tang Yongyu, Wei Lanshan knew her character all too well.

Tang Yongyu would not allow Ye Yunhan to have another daughter who might surpass her own daughter's talent.

Moreover, that daughter wasn't born from her, but was a stranger with no connection to the Tang family, even if this highly talented child was just an experimental subject.

Wei Lanshan had met Tang Yongyu and knew she was an overbearing and somewhat unreasonable person, also ruthless in her methods. The Tang family was known for their methods in the Jinghui galaxy.

Tang Yongyu and Ye Yunhan's marriage was a union between two galaxies, a most stable alliance. Since they were allies, how could they allow the Ye family to have a genius without Tang family blood?

Tang Yongyu would only consider her own interests and would not view the matter from the Ye family's perspective.

One more child with excellent talent would allow the family to go further. However, the Ye family's resources would inevitably be divided into two. How could Tang Yongyu allow such a thing to happen?

However, this did not prevent 99 from growing up healthily. In Wei Lanshan's opinion, she was incredibly lively.

Upon hearing Wei Lanshan's footsteps, 99 opened her eyes and met Wei Lanshan's dark gaze.

No matter how many times she saw Wei Lanshan, 99 still felt surprised.

Unlike the lady who took care of her, Wei Lanshan had an aggressive appearance. Her beauty was flamboyant and unrestrained, captivating at first glance, yet one could also tell that this beauty was not to be trifled with.

After obtaining the desired data, Wei Lanshan returned to her workroom.

She called Wu Yuan over and began preparing for comprehensive experiments. 99's body was in good condition, and they needed to accelerate the progress.

Life underground was very peaceful. Wei Lanshan observed data, conducted experiments, and prepared medications every day. Thus, several Tianning Star Months passed. 99 was now over eight months old and had started babbling.

In eight months, 99 had calmed down from the initial strangeness of opening her eyes and now understood her situation.

It was clear this was a laboratory, not a hospital. Her body should be healthy, but she had never left this room. There was only a sweet young woman (a nanny?) taking care of her.

As for the older woman, whom the "big shell" called "Lord Lan," 99 was reluctant to mention her.

She only came into the room when conducting experiments. Once she arrived, for 99, it meant inhuman torture.

She had become an infant used for experiments right after birth, or more precisely, she was born because of experiments.

99 sighed in her heart, life as an infant was difficult.

Gradually, Subject 99 grew much older and, like any child, enjoyed laughing and listening to stories.

Wei Lanshan discovered that 99 had a strong thirst for knowledge. When she was five or six months old, she would have robots hold her as she learned about various things in the laboratory.

As for how 99 commanded the robots, she hadn't started learning to speak back then. Wei Lanshan estimated it was through mental power; there was no other reason.

She also found that the companion robot's data system would bypass the central system and automatically download knowledge not within its chip and program scope.

Wei Lanshan was very surprised.

This was because the robot's instructions were fixed. Unless the owner upgraded the robot's chip and added programs, others couldn't alter it through external force.

She hadn't expected this little child's talent to be so extraordinary.

99 didn't know that her big sister's recent learning had exceeded its programming scope. She had simply communicated with her gentle and lovely big sister, wanting to know more, unaware that she had unknowingly issued a command to it.
