5: Does he want brotherhood?

"Don't you think the space is really powerful?"

"I think you should upgrade quickly. Once you upgrade, you'll see an even more powerful space."

"I wonder if I can become human after the space upgrades."

The great tree's last sentence was spoken very softly, but Su Mianmian still heard it.

When she heard the last thing the great tree said, she knew that the great tree actually wanted to become human too.

It probably also wants to see the outside world!

Su Mianmian felt that she should properly upgrade the space in the future. Whether for herself or for the great tree, she should diligently search for things to upgrade the space.

"great tree, do you have a name?"

"Calling you 'great tree, great tree' all the time seems a bit inappropriate."

Su Mianmian suddenly thought of this, and she looked at the great tree with a curious expression, her tone full of doubt.

As her eyes swept towards the great tree, she didn't notice that when her eyes looked at it, it unconsciously trembled its branches a few times.

Its behavior clearly showed it was shy.

It was a pity Su Mianmian didn't see it.

When the great tree heard her question, it suddenly felt a little wronged.

"I've been waiting for my owner for hundreds of years, do you think I have a name or not?"

"I think a name given by the owner is meaningful. If I give myself one, it has no meaning at all."

After the great tree said this, Su Mianmian didn't even need to hear the rest; as soon as she heard its first sentence, she knew what it wanted to express.

Didn't it just want her to give it a name?

Su Mianmian looked at the great tree with a mix of heartache and helplessness, then, after about a minute of thought, she said, "How about I give you one? But I'm not very good at naming. If you don't like it, just tell me, and I'll give you another one. What do you think?"

She felt that her words were impeccable. The great tree shouldn't be dissatisfied after hearing them, right?

Su Mianmian stared intently at the great tree, secretly regretting in her heart that the great tree didn't have a human face. If it did, she could clearly see what expression was on its face at that moment.

The leaves on the great tree's body began to tremble slowly after hearing Su Mianmian say that.

This was also one of its ways of expressing happiness or unhappiness.

It would probably be unfeasible for Su Mianmian to guess whether the great tree was happy or unhappy using this method.

"I think I'll like anything my owner gives me."

"What name will you give me?"

The great tree's tone was full of innocence and anticipation.

When Su Mianmian heard its words, her expression couldn't help but soften.

It was the first time she felt that the great tree was still just an "unbeaten child."

It was still very pure now.

As Su Mianmian thought of this, her expression as she looked at the great tree became even more gentle.

"book book, what do you think of this name?"

"Books are made from trees. I think giving you a name related to your original body is more meaningful."

"If you don't like it, I'll change it for you."

As soon as Su Mianmian thought about naming the great tree, the name "book book" popped into her mind. She felt it really suited the great tree, she just didn't know if it would like it.

She looked at the great tree with a curious expression, feeling secretly anxious in her heart.

The great tree carefully considered the name "book book" that Su Mianmian had given it. It felt that, just as she said, it was indeed a rather meaningful name.

"I think it's great. From now on, I'll be called book book."

"What's your name?"

book book felt that a surname was missing. It wanted to be like her, after all, she was its owner.

Su Mianmian thought that book book just wanted to formally exchange names with her, so she told it her name without a second thought.

When book book heard her say her name was Su Mianmian, it immediately became excited.

Its name was Su book book, and her name was Su Mianmian.

Why did it feel so... book book thought of this and couldn't help but want to laugh.

"From now on, I'll be called Su book book."

"But you can just call me book book from now on."

"And I'll call you Mianmian from now on."

book book said excitedly.

It was so excited that many of its leaves fell off.

Seeing so many leaves fall from it, Su Mianmian curiously glanced at book book's body. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Then she replied, "Alright, alright, I'll call you book book from now on."

Su Mianmian thought that there were still things to do later, so she told book book that she was going out.

Although book book was a little reluctant to hear this, it understood that Su Mianmian must have her own affairs and it couldn't be so selfish.

So it nodded, watching her leave with reluctance.

After Su Mianmian left, she began to think of ways to call Shi Xu back.

Shi Xu hadn't been back for almost a month.

Ever since the Original Body's Owner argued with him every time he returned, he stopped coming back too often.

If Shi Xu didn't come back, that woman naturally wouldn't come either.

After all, her ultimate goal wasn't her, but Shi Xu.

Su Mianmian sat on the bed and thought for a while. She came up with many plans, but in the end, she rejected them one by one.

These plans were too idiotic. Shi Xu was so smart, how could he possibly believe the excuses she had just thought of?

"Never mind, never mind. For now, I should fill my stomach."

"What if the apocalypse hasn't even arrived yet, and I starve to death first?"

After hearing her stomach rumble, Su Mianmian sighed and muttered to herself.

She casually changed into a set of clothes and went downstairs.

It had to be said that although the Original Body's Owner was a bit foolish, her looks were truly good.

Especially her eyes, which had a foxy quality, yet also gave people a delicate, fragile feeling.

Su Mianmian felt that she would never be able to be a dominant woman in her life.

Her greatest wish was to be a dominant woman, but in her original world, she was a sweet girl, and in this world, she had a somewhat alluring, 'foxy' appearance.

Su Mianmian shook her head. When she had looked in the mirror just now, she was almost captivated by her own reflection.

The fact that Shi Xu could resist disliking the Original Body's Owner truly impressed her immensely.

If it were her... she felt she wouldn't be able to resist.

Su Mianmian thought of how Shi Xu never remarried after divorcing the Original Body's Owner in the plot, and she was impressed.

A man like Shi Xu was probably the kind of person who didn't care for romantic entanglements, only for achieving great things, right?

So, what he wanted was brotherhood?

Then should she also try to establish a brotherhood with him?

Su Mianmian walked and thought. Just as she reached the door and opened it, she saw a man standing outside.
