Chapter 27: Chapter 27: Why are you acting so important?
Kong Wen and Chi Yan were even more envious.
The Su Family was an existence they looked up to, and the Han Family… that was beyond their wildest dreams.
“Is this robot the one that made the news the year before last?” Chi Yan asked with envy and curiosity, “Super intelligent, capable of doing all household chores just like a human, even able to operate some simple appliances, and can even learn and upgrade itself?”
Su Qing shook his head regretfully, “That robot is a core project of Hanwan Group. It not only costs up to a hundred million, but it’s also not for sale to the public, given only as gifts to important VIPs.”
Hearing this, Chi Gui gave Su Qing a somewhat surprised look.
She had never used a robotic butler before and was completely unfamiliar with them.
...
Little Guai was so advanced, she had thought that was just how far technology had come.
Who would have thought it was custom made?
The eyes of the three people almost instantly noticed Chi Gui’s look.
Su Qing frowned in disgust, turned his head away, as if afraid that one more glance would cause Chi Gui to cling to him.
Chi Yan smiled and said to Chi Gui, “Sister, are you also interested in robot butlers?”
Chi Gui: “It’s okay… quite cute, and quite useful.”
“Cute?” Chi Yan was taken aback.
Kong Wen had already laughed out loud, “Chi Yan, I think your sister has no clue what a robot butler is. She’s just pretending to be knowledgeable, right? Since when has a robot butler been associated with cute?”
Chi Yan sighed helplessly and looked at Chi Gui, “Sister, at present, robotic butlers… even the latest unreleased models bought by Brother Su Qing’s family, just follow set programs to work and the voice is only a built-in mature male voice, how could it possibly be cute?”
Chi Gui: …
She felt that talking to them was a bit of a waste of time, so she didn’t speak again, but instead sent Han Xuan a message: “The robot you gave me, is it custom-made?”
Han Xuan responded almost instantly: “Yes. Are you satisfied with it? Yutang said you’re a girl, you like soft cute things so I had someone specially implant a child’s voice.”
Chi Gui: “It’s very cute, thank you.”
However, in the eyes of Kong Wen and the others, Chi Gui’s actions were seen as embarrassed defensiveness after being figuratively slapped in the face.
Kong Wen snorted with laughter.
Chi Yan sighed and said to Su Qing, “Brother Su Qing, let’s talk to sister more about the aristocratic circle in the future… otherwise, I feel uncomfortable seeing her like this…”
Su Qing’s voice and gaze softened, “You are really too kind. But such ignorant and vain people don’t deserve our help.”
Chi Yan lowered her head and curved the corner of her lips.
–
As the class was about to start, a girl walked in from the door.
She was wearing somewhat worn-out sportswear, her hair slightly messy, and her eyes bloodshot as if she had gone without sleep for two nights.
Upon seeing Chi Gui, the girl was startled, a trace of surprise flashing in her eyes. She was just about to sit down next to her when she saw Su Qing nearby.
He was staring at her coldly, the loathing in his eyes nearly spilling over.
The girl shrank back in fright, then hesitated before choosing to sit a little farther away from Chi Gui.
The class passed quickly.
As soon as the class ended, Su Qing and Chi Yan left.
Chi Gui sat at her desk, holding her phone, seemingly engrossed in whatever she was looking at.
The girl sat in her seat, hesitating for a long time, until the classroom was almost empty before she finally bit her lip and walked towards Chi Gui.
Just as she approached, she was startled by the cold gaze of Guai sitting beside Chi Gui.
After a pause, she mustered her courage and said to Chi Gui, “Um… I really thank you for last time! My mom survived all thanks to your timely rescue!”
What do you think?
