The Only Normal Human In The Universe Chapter 29

As a deal had been struck between the two, An Yan was invited for lunch at the Cheng family manor.

Then he was once again shocked by the Cheng family’s wealth.

Kung Pao chicken, braised pork ribs, pan-fried tofu, steamed pumpkin, cabbage in vinegar… The table was full of delicious dishes that simply dazzled An Yan, and he didn’t even know where to start.

This was the first time he had seen so many delicacies made from fresh ingredients!

Seeing An Yan’s eyes craving food but didn’t know how to eat it, Cheng Yi hooked his lips and put a piece of braised pork ribs into his bowl. “Try this, it should taste pretty good.”

“Thank you.” An Yan hurriedly thanked him and buried himself in eating. His cheeks soon puffed up.

He was fine when drinking nutrients, but now that he was suddenly eating such delicious food, An Yan couldn’t help but reveal his hamster nature.

Cheng Yi found An Yan very cute, but he was worried that he might accidentally choke. He quickly put a bowl of egg flower soup next to him, “Don’t eat too quickly, have a sip of soup first.”

An Yan nodded repeatedly, but the speed of his hands could not slow down at all.

It is delicious! It is so delicious!

He couldn’t control his hands and mouth at all. What should he do!

Cheng Yi didn’t eat too much during the meal because he was keeping an eye on An Yan. He just added some dishes to An Yan’s bowl from time to time, or reminded him at the right time, so that he wouldn’t choke.

 An Yan was embarrassed by the time he finally had enough of soup and rice and came to his senses. The way he just ate was so incredulous!

“That… was my first time eating such a delicious meal, so……” An Yan’s face was all red.

Cheng Yi propped up his chin and looked at An Yan, graciously inviting him, “If you liked it, you can come over for a meal more often in the future.”

An Yan knew how expensive these fresh ingredients were, so he was too embarrassed to respond. He just changed the subject, “Are you usually home alone?”

Cheng Yi was introverted. He was quiet and his lack of communication with others was mostly due to his own reasons. But he put on an aggrieved look when An Yan asked this question. “I hardly have any friends. My family is very busy, so I rarely have anyone to keep me company.”

An Yan immediately sympathised with Cheng Yi. He knew the feeling of loneliness best.

At the beginning of his cultivation, An Yan could still play with other little friends, but later on, all the little friends around him successfully transformed and became more and more enlightened. He was the only hamster who could not succeed no matter how hard he tried, so he could not blend in even if he wanted to. He gradually became more and more distant from his former little friends.

In addition, he had low self-esteem, so he could only cower in silence and not communicate with other demons.

So to An Yan, he now treasured Cheng Yi as a friend: “It’s okay, you have me as a friend now. If you need company, just call me! “

“Really?” Cheng Yi narrowed his eyes and smiled. Why is this little one so gullible?

An Yan nodded seriously. “Of course it’s true!”

“Yan Yan, would you like to see my training room?” Cheng Yi asked, his hands itching once more.

“Training room?” After the testing room and the pharmacy room, An Yan was curious.

Cheng Yi explained, “It’s where I usually do my mecha training.”

An Yan was, of course, aware of the existence of mecha, but neither he nor the original owner had ever seen a real mecha. His eyes lit up as soon as Cheng Yi explained, “Yes!”

“Come on, I’ll show you.” Cheng Yi stood up and said.

The required space for a mecha training room is huge.  So it couldn’t be set up at home. Cheng Yi took An Yan out of the Cheng house and directly onto the airship.

“Is your training room very far away?” An Yan asked.

Cheng Yi shook his head, “It’s not far. There are many training grounds there, and there’s even a shopping street nearby. I can take you around later.”

“Senior, you’re so kind.” An Yan said sincerely. He really feels that Cheng Yi is so good.

Cheng Yi, however, was in tears as he heard this. It was the first time someone had praised him so seriously, and he didn’t know what to say.

When they arrived at their destination, Cheng Yi took An Yan straight to his training room.

When he said “training room,” it would actually be more appropriate to call it a training ground. An Yan felt really small in such a huge space.

“It’s so big here.” An Yan even heard his echo after a while.

Cheng Yi took out the space button for storing the mecha and curled his lips, “It would be hard for the mecha to move around if the space isn’t big enough,.”

With that, he directly released the mecha from the space button.

In an instant, a huge mecha that was at least 20 metres tall appeared in front of the two of them. An Yan felt as if a huge shadow had suddenly come down, causing him to take two steps back in fright.

After making sure that the mecha that had suddenly descended in front of him would not really press down on him, An Yan breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest. “Is this the mecha? It looks so tall!”

Cheng Yi smiled and said, “This is my usual training mecha. Do you want to go up and take a look?”

An Yan’s eyes widened, ” I can go up there too? But I don’t know how to pilot a mecha. “

One needed a certain amount of talent and systematic training to pilot a mecha.

An Yan had never even seen a mecha before, let alone piloted one.

Moreover, this mecha looks huge. He estimated that one arm was several times his height. It must be very difficult to pilot it.

“There’s no need for you to pilot the mecha; you can just sit in the passenger seat,” Cheng Yi explained. After a pause, he added, “This is the first time I’ve invited someone into my mecha.”

This statement obviously implied a deeper meaning, but it was a pity that the pure-minded An Yan completely missed it and misunderstood Cheng Yi’s meaning.

He was thinking that it was the first time Cheng Yi had mustered up the courage to invite his friend into his mecha. If he refused, Cheng Yi would be very sad, right?

So, although he was still a little intimidated by the giant, An Yan still mustered up the courage to nod, “Sure, I’ve never touched a mecha before. It looks so powerful. “

Cheng Yi immediately activated the mecha and led An Yan safely into the cockpit using the mecha arm.

The space in the cockpit was not large, but it was enough to accommodate two people. Cheng Yi carefully introduced An Yan to the layout of the cockpit and settled him into the passenger seat, while he himself sat in the main driver’s seat.

Seeing that An Yan looked both excited and nervous, Cheng Yi smiled and asked, “Do you know how mecha warriors operate their mecha?”

An Yan shook his head, “How do you control it?”

“There are two ways to control a mecha, one is manual control, “Cheng Yi pointed to the control panel in front of the main driver’s seat. “As long as it is an instruction that a mecha can complete, you can find the corresponding button on this control panel. But this control method is rarely used nowadays, unless there is a special circumstance that forces one to do a manual operation. “

“The is because this method is complicated and difficult to operate. Of course, the most important reason is that there is a delay in this method of operation. It is fine during normal training and battles, but a delay of even 0.01 milliseconds on the battlefield is crucial to the survival of a mecha warrior. “

An Yan listened attentively and sighed with seeming understanding, “So that’s how it is. So what kind of method is used to control mecha nowadays? “

Cheng Yi flicked at An Yan’s little head, “Of course it’s using spiritual power. Spiritual power is directly connected to the mecha’s central hub, which not only saves time on tedious controls, but also effectively reduces the delay time and achieves an almost synchronised operation. “

An Yan was dumbfounded by the flick and covered his head, “Using spiritual power… ah, it sounds quite advanced.”

“Then does Yan Yan want to try it?” Cheng Yi asked with a particular wicked glint in his eyes.

An Yan, however, interpreted the glint in Cheng Yi’s eyes as an expectation for his friend.

Cheng Yi had few friends and no one to play mecha with. Now that he had friends, he hoped his friends could have the same hobbies as him.

An Yan immediately agreed with a soft heart, “Okay, so what should I do now?”

“I’ll help you.” Cheng Yi’s eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up from the driver’s seat, then extended his claws towards An Yan.

An Yan hadn’t reacted : “What are you going to do, senior?”

Cheng Yi had a gentle smile on his face as he explained softly, ” You need to sit in the main driver’s seat since you want to drive the mecha. You also need to strap your body in to prevent accidents during the process of controlling the mecha. Someone must be there to assist from the side when a mecha warrior uses his spiritual power to connect with the mecha for the first time. “

An Yan nodded obediently and took the initiative to sit in the main driver’s seat. He then looked at Cheng Yi with clear eyes and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble Senior next.”

To Cheng Yi, that defenceless little look was like tempting him to commit a crime!

Although he was indeed tempted, Cheng Yi forced down the monster in his heart and began to strap An Yan’s body in.

Fixing the straps into place naturally leads to a lot of physical contact. Although Cheng Yi did not intend to do anything excessive, he took the opportunity to eat a lot of fresh tofu. The white hands, slender waist, long legs, and even the beautifully shaped neck did not escape Cheng Yi’s clutches.

An Yan didn’t even notice his dilemma and spent the whole time gazing at Cheng Yi with a grateful and pure gaze. This caused Cheng Yi’s heart to itch, but he had to force himself to hold back.

It was nearly ten minutes later when Cheng Yi finally completed the task. He gave An Yan’s waist a gentle squeeze, then reluctantly withdrew his hand: “Okay.”

An Yan let out a long sig and thanked him seriously, “I didn’t expect it to take so long. It’s really hard on you, senior. “

Cheng Yi, who usually didn’t even take half a minute to strap himself, nodded solemnly, “This process is indeed very complicated.”

“Then what are we going to do next?” An Yan showed a look of anticipation.

Cheng Yi replied, “The next step is the spiritual power connection.”
