The Strong Female Lead Versus The Most Miserable Male Lead

Chapter 25: Chapter 25: Delicate Rubble

“Money wasted!”

“Can’t work, more useless than a sickly seedling! At least a sickling can be scenic to look at!”

“In the end, it’s me who ends up working again.”

While clearing the land, Nian Shutong grumbled. She felt her luck with wealth was not just bad, but she was actually losing money on a losing deal.

“Are you angry? Happy? Depressed?” Rubble’s voice rang out, making Nian Shutong stand up and turn to look at him.

At that moment, Rubble had found a rock covered with a few vivid green leaves, sitting on it with even more leaves under his feet.

Pretty comfortable.

Nian Shutong simply grabbed a small shovel and walked over to Rubble, plunking down on the ground beside him.

“According to data, the bacteria in undeveloped forest soil can reach up to 98.9 percent, with unhatched eggs making up at least 85 percent, and deadly bacteria over 10 percent.”

After hearing the scientific tidbit, Nian Shutong’s face was suffused with a smile Rubble couldn’t understand.

“Rubble, do you like cleanliness?”

“Yes, Rubble really likes it,” Rubble shared his preference honestly. It’s a tradition of the Mechanical Clan not to lie.

Nian Shutong’s fair hand gently scooped up a handful of soil, smiling at Rubble.

“Rubble, I just want to clear the land and farm, what do you think you can contribute? If you can’t contribute, then this soil with over 10% deadly bacteria will end up on you.”

Nian Shutong didn’t feel bad at all about threatening a robot.

Strangers, if they want to stay, must be valuable.

Rubble, standing two meters tall, quickly stood up, picked up two leaves, and laid them on the other side, tiptoeing across them.

“You’re definitely jealous of Rubble’s beauty, that’s not right.” Rubble, sensing Nian Shutong’s continuously shifting gaze, felt something bad was about to happen.

He asked, “Why not buy robots for labor?”

The question hit Nian Shutong like a punch to the lung.

“I don’t have money,” Nian Shutong said in a low voice, her head drooping slightly, her eyes gloomily uncertain as she looked at Rubble.

Paired with the patchy branches and leaves around, it made the emotionless Rubble feel somewhat…cold.

“Rubble can build robots himself.”

Build robots?

Nian Shutong raised her drooping head slightly, looking skeptical as she asked, “Really?”

“Rubble never lies, that is the second virtue of our Mechanical Clan after beauty,” Rubble stated righteously, somewhat indignant.

“Hehehe…”

Nian Shutong, baring her teeth, mechanically laughed twice and asked no further questions, trusting only a fraction of what Rubble had said for now. @@novelbin@@

As for later, that would be discussed another time.

Nian Shutong didn’t continue clearing the land, instead, she went to the cornfield ahead, brought back lots of corn, and stored some in the space compartment, carrying the rest herself.

Carrying it was to strengthen her physical body.

Rubble waited in the same spot, not moving an inch. When Nian Shutong returned, without turning her head, she said two words: “Follow me.”

Rubble stepped forward, following Nian Shutong.

However, less than halfway there, Rubble behind her started to speak in a whining tone.

“Rubble is too tired.”

Nian Shutong put down the corn, turned around, and glanced at Rubble.

“Rubble is tired, my heartbeat can’t handle such high-intensity exercise, overworking is not conducive to maintaining Rubble’s beauty.”

Beauty? Beauty? Where exactly is the beauty located!

And where is the high intensity?

It was just a short walk.

Nian Shutong took out a rope, tied it around the corn stalks, forcefully swung it, and said to the immobile Rubble: “Sit on top!”

Rubble obediently climbed up, and she pulled from the front.

Pray you can actually build robots yourself!

Otherwise… hmph!
