Bai Ye jumped out of bed and found that someone had taken off his clothes and changed him into pajamas.

But this is not important.

He put on his slippers, opened the door and walked out, and found that several people downstairs were sitting around the dining table, seemingly discussing something.

Hearing the door opening, several people immediately looked over with surprised expressions.

"Master, you're awake!"

The first person to rush up was Maria. This girl didn't care that Bai Ye had just woken up. She jumped up and pounced on him from mid-air.

Bai Ye had no choice but to open his arms and catch the girl's energetic body.

Since he was only wearing a thin layer of pajamas, Bai Ye could fully experience the feeling of two soft lumps pressing against his chest.

This kid is much more capable than he looks.

At least in this respect it can be said of Gossamer Platinum and Monique.

Because of the close contact, Bai Ye was indeed a little distracted, but he quickly reacted. But Maria didn't seem to realize this. She smiled innocently and rubbed her little head against Bai Ye's jaw.

"Master, you finally woke up. I was so worried!"

Bai Ye laughed dumbly and patted her little head, "It's okay, you are so old and still acting like a spoiled child, I am awake now, am I not?"

After responding to Maria, he immediately asked, "What about Froststar? How is she...?"

When he asked this question, he subconsciously looked away, but couldn't help turning his eyes back.

He was really nervous. After all, he fainted after helping Froststar activate the prosthesis.

It's just like brain overload.

"Don't worry, Master. Sister Shuangxing woke up earlier than you and is resting in her room now!"

Bai Ye took a deep breath and immediately felt like a huge weight had been lifted off his heart.

It worked!

He really snatched Frost Star back from the hands of Death!

"Where is she? I want to have a word with her."

"Okay, Master, follow me~"

Maria brought Bai Ye to the front of the room, but from an angle where he couldn't see, she winked at the people downstairs.

Everyone looked at each other and began to hurriedly tidy up the papers on the table.

Written here are their strategies and plans, which must not be seen by Bai Ye.

On the other side, Bai Ye pushed open the door and saw Shuangxing lying on the bed.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Shuang Xing also opened his eyes and looked towards the door. The two looked at each other, saying nothing, but it seemed as if they had said everything.

Maria did not disturb the two of them, but quietly left the room and closed the door.

Bai Ye and Shuang Xing were the only ones left in the room, and the air became silent.

After a moment, Froststar couldn't help laughing.

"You still have the nerve to laugh!"

Bai Ye pretended to be angry and said something to her, then sat down beside her bed and asked softly, "How is it? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Froststar shook her head, "I'm fine. I've never felt better."

"I can rest assured that."

"....Bai Ye, thank you."

"Why are you thanking me?" Bai Ye reached out and helped her tidy up the messy hair on her forehead.

"Of course it's because you saved my life. Besides, is it really okay for me to have such a valuable thing?"

Bai Ye reached out and tapped her forehead. Seeing her painful expression, he said helplessly, "What's wrong with that? You got the mineral sickness because you were trying to help me cool down. Shouldn't I help you heal your illness?"

"But...."

"Nothing but."

"No, I know that even if this didn't happen, I wouldn't have lived long. If it weren't for Rhodes Island using drugs to keep me alive, I would have died long ago."

Froststar looked gloomy. Due to excessive use of Originium techniques, her infection symptoms had become very serious.

She knew all this, and she lived every day on Rhodes Island as if it were her last.

That's why she would sacrifice her life for Bai Ye without hesitation.

I won’t live much longer anyway, right?

"But now, my oripathy has healed, and even the Originium in my body has disappeared... Kal'tsit told me that you took out the sixth-order prosthesis to help me heal my illness."

“Am I really worth it?”

Bai Ye looked at Shuangxing and spoke slowly but firmly.

"Of course it's worth it. Not to mention the sixth level, I wouldn't hesitate even if it was the seventh level."

Bai Ye did not lie. If the system said that the manufacture of this prosthesis required a seventh-level prosthesis as material, he would throw the seventh-level network access warehouse "Benyuan" in without hesitation.

People are priceless, Bai Ye has always believed this. He feels that it is a good deal to exchange a prosthetic body for a person who is sincere to him.

Blood earned!

After Bai Ye said this, Shuang Xing was stunned and looked down at his left hand.

Level six!

In Ursus, such a prosthesis would be enough to enable several armies to fight each other, enough to allow dozens of villages to move into cities, and enough to attract the attention of His Majesty the Emperor or even to visit in person!

But now, such a precious prosthesis is in my body.

I am just a snow rabbit that luckily escaped from the snowfield. Am I really worthy of all this?

"Believe me, Froststar, you deserve this."

"Um...."

"What are you talking about? You've recovered from your mineralogy, why don't you be happier? Come on, smile and see!"

Frost Star looked at Bai Ye helplessly, but couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth into a big smile.

How could she not be happy to have a new life?

The cold winter princess smiled, like an ancient glacier slowly melting under the sunshine, shining with beautiful luster.

Bai Ye also laughed.

Seeing this smile, Bai Ye suddenly felt that everything he had done before was worth it.

"By the way, Froststar, have you named that prosthetic?"

"No." Froststar shook her head and thought for a moment, "How about calling it Winter Death?"

Bai Ye looked disgusted and said, "What is Winter's Death? It's too unlucky. Change it to another one."

"Nonsense, the death of winter is not unlucky. After winter, spring will come, right?"

Bai Ye was stunned. "Don't mention it, it's true. It sounds pretty nice when I think about it this way. Shuangxing, you are quite good at naming~"

"Nope either."

The two chatted and laughed, and the last layer of barriers was broken.

After chatting for a while, Bai Ye finally made an invitation to Shuang Xing.

"So, Miss Froststar, are you willing to follow me?"

"Eh?"

The girl looked up in a daze and saw Bai Ye looking at her sincerely.

"Well, it's like this, Miss Froststar, as you know, I am a hacker, a special hacker."

"If a normal hacker wants to dissipate heat, they just need to lean on a hacker chair, but I can't. You saw what happened before, right?"

Frost Star nodded. She had experienced this twice herself.

Bai Ye's overclocking is extremely scary, and the heat he emits is even several times that of other hackers.

"So, you want me to follow you and be your personal radiator?"

Bai Ye was a little embarrassed and coughed dryly, but finally nodded. This name is a bit unpleasant to the ear, but it is indeed the truth.

If he wants to go all out, he must get the help of Frost Star.

As expected, Frost Star did not refuse.

She raised her palm and looked at it, then smiled and said, "I am using the prosthesis you gave me now. It would be too much to refuse~"

But Bai Ye did not accept it, instead he looked straight into her eyes. Shuang Xing did not dodge, their eyes met without hesitation.

"Ms. Froststar, I told you, the prosthetic body is what you deserve."

Bai Ye whispered: "I hope you are willing to follow me because of something else, not just because of this prosthesis."

Frost Star looked at him with a serene smile on her face.

"You think I'm doing this to repay you?"

"Isn't it?"

"If that's the case, then I wouldn't have come when Angel of Power went to Rhodes Island to invite me."

At this point, Shuangxing winked playfully, "After all, you didn't give me a prosthetic body at that time, right?"

"What's that for?"

Frost Star folded her arms, tilted her head slightly, her pretty cheeks puffed up slightly, and her lips pouted slightly.

"Don't tell you."

Of course she wouldn't say it, the only reason she agreed to come and help was because she was greedy for that burning sensation.

Ore disease prevented her from touching others, and her low temperature would directly freeze others. Before meeting Bai Ye, she had forgotten the feeling of hugging others and the meaning of the word "warmth".

Conventional heating methods were useless to her. She tried air conditioning, heaters, stoves...but none of them worked.

Either she couldn't feel the heat, or it would burn her.

Except for the overclocked White Night.

Although she didn't want to admit it, the feeling of their skin touching and the heat rushing into their bodies was fascinated by her.

He cured his illness, saved his life, and installed a priceless prosthetic body for himself.

What more could a girl who was barely surviving ask for?

Frost Star secretly glanced at Bai Ye and found that he was sitting quietly beside the bed, looking at her, waiting for her answer.

The girl couldn't help but complain in her heart.

What is he waiting for? Does he have to say it himself?

How could I possibly refuse!

"Hmph, since you invited me, I will reluctantly agree to your invitation~"

"You're so reluctant, why not forget it?"

Bai Ye was about to stand up after he finished speaking. Shuang Xing was startled and said quickly: "Don't force me. I promise. I promise you."

But when he turned around, Bai Ye had no intention of leaving. He was sitting there looking at him with a grin on his face.

Frost Star's little face suddenly fell and she looked at Bai Ye with resentment.

"Okay, okay, I haven't even left with you yet, and you can't help but bully me, right?"

Bai Ye scratched his head embarrassedly. It would be a shame not to bully such a silly white rabbit.

"Alright, alright, just take a rest first."

"Why are you still taking a break? I feel really good now."

As he spoke, Frost Star tried to stand up, but was pushed back by Bai Ye.

"Your disease has not been cured, it just won't recur... Now Winter's Death is absorbing the Originium in your internal organs. You need to rest during this period, understand?"
