As Xia Chujian thought this, she suddenly lost control of herself and involuntarily extended a mechanical finger, wiping away the drool at the infant's mouth.
The infant beamed at her and even rubbed his chubby little cheek against her mechanical finger.
Even through the Shao Siming Mecha, Xia Chujian could feel the softness of his face.
This child was even younger than Wufu had been when she first met him.
Wufu had already been able to walk and talk back then.
This child was still an infant. He could not walk and could only crawl.
He could not talk either, only babble nonsense.
Xia Chujian's heart softened a little.
Still, she did not lower her guard. She merely watched the child quietly, waiting to see what other tricks he might have.
At that moment, the infant tilted his head and looked at her for a while before climbing onto her crossed legs on his own.
Xia Chujian: "..."
What was this little guy trying to do?
Did he want to hug her thigh?
But he was not even as tall as her calf.
Xia Chujian's mouth twitched, but there was no way she could kick away such an adorable infant.
Even knowing that his origins were unknown and that there was a strong chance he was not human, he had not done anything fatally harmful to her.
On the contrary, he seemed to have helped her.
Stranded on the same unfamiliar planet, should she and this suddenly appeared mysterious infant huddle together for warmth?
The infant found a comfortable position and lay across Xia Chujian's crossed legs. He put one tiny finger into his mouth and suckled on it, humming contentedly like a little piglet.
Xia Chujian lowered her head to examine this overly familiar infant and fell into thought.
