Hearing this, Mu Qianchu "looked" in the direction of Mr. Palace with some surprise, and couldn't help but said, "The robot seems to be more intelligent than before."
In the beginning, the robot would do whatever Xiao Nian said when needed.
Now they will take the initiative.
Shi Xiaonian stood there and paused for a second before saying, "Technology is changing with each passing day and developing very fast."
"I've seen it, let's go."
Mu Qianchu put his hand on Mr. Gong's arm and followed it forward.
Before entering the restaurant, a bodyguard hurriedly came to report, "Mrs. Gong."
"What's wrong?"
Shi Xiaonian asked.
"The old lady has been crying every day since she arrived here. Her mood became even more volatile after they were transferred to detention. She repeatedly asked to see you and said she wanted to go to her daughter's grave." The bodyguard reported with a headache, "I was originally I don’t want to bother you with this kind of thing, but that old lady is really difficult to deal with. She said she would seek death if she doesn’t see you, so there’s nothing we can do.”
Hearing this, before Shi Xiaonian could speak, Mu Qianchu frowned and said, "I told you, ask me about this kind of thing first, don't bother Xiaonian."
Xiao Nian is pregnant now and can't bear the trouble.
Shi Xiaonian stood there silently, her eyes dim.
She was really tired of her adoptive parents and didn't want to have any more entanglements.
"But the old lady only wants to see Mrs. Gong, and she will die in front of us if she doesn't see her. Mr. Mu, you have given orders not to let them make any mistakes..." The bodyguard looked troubled.
"She wants to see me just to go to her daughter's grave?"
Shi Xiaonian interjected and asked. The light was extremely bright, and the sadness in her eyes was illuminated particularly clearly.
"She wants Mrs. Gong to give her an explanation, what else can she say..." The bodyguard hesitated to speak in embarrassment.
"What else did you say?"
Shi Xiaonian continued to ask. Now that things have happened, what else can she not listen to? Anyway, everything that should be wrong is wrong, how can it be wrong.
"Tell me if Mrs. Gong still remembers the upbringing that she single-handedly helped to bring up. It's too cruel to lock them here so that she can't even visit her own daughter's grave." said the bodyguard.
Shi Xiaonian could imagine that Min Qiujun must have said these words with tears in his eyes. He was wronged, especially wronged.
So what if she goes to see him? Crying and crying in front of her to get out, or crying and suddenly kidnapping her to achieve the purpose of leaving
Upbringing.
Upbringing.
Shi Xiaonian felt that her IQ had regressed as she lived. Since when did she no longer understand the meaning of the words "nurturing grace".
"Leave this matter to me. I told them that they are locked here to save their lives. They are simply stubborn." Mu Qianchu stood there holding Mr. Gong's hand. He was always calm and rare. The tone of his speech was a bit harsh.
The bodyguard's head was about to explode, "But that old lady..."
"I won't go see her." Shi Xiaonian suddenly said lightly.
There was silence in the room. Everyone looked at her. Shi Xiaonian looked at the bodyguard and said word by word, "Please tell her and ask her if she remembers how I got to Shi's house and if she took me." Having been a daughter, I asked her if she ever wanted to give me an explanation."
The bodyguard didn't know what to say when he saw this, so he lowered his head and said, "Yes, Mrs. Gong, I will do it."
The bodyguard turned and left.
Mu Qianchu stood there with a frown. He wanted to save the lives of Shi Zhong and his wife for Shi Di, but they kept hurting Xiao Nian, which he didn't want to see.
He owed too many people and could only do things with restraint.
After dinner, they all went back to their rooms. Shi Xiaonian handed the two children into the hands of the servant Alyssa. Turning around, she saw Mu Qianchu standing on the first step, facing her direction, his lips moving, But said nothing.
When Xiaonian wanted to leave, Mu Qianchu said, "Xiaonian, are you okay?"
"Are you talking about my adoptive mother?" Shi Xiaonian smiled self-deprecatingly, "It's nothing, I'm used to it."
"I will handle this matter and won't let them bother you again."
Mu Qianchu promised her.
Shi Xiaonian looked at Mu Qianchu's feminine face and suddenly realized that he was burdened with too much now. He completely regarded Shi Zhong and his wife as his obligation and responsibility.
"It's okay. I've seen my adoptive mother's attitude like this too many times since I was a child."
Shi Xiaonian said, saying this quite resignedly.
Ever since she was a child, Min Qiujun's tears were the most lethal to her. They were even more incapable of resisting than Shi Zhong's absolute cruelty. As long as such a weak woman cried, she would have no choice but to admit defeat and then Time and time again, I fall into the trap of an eccentric mother.
But enough is enough now.
She was really fed up, she had been so wrong, and she didn't want to step into any trap again and again.
"Then you should rest early." Mu Qianchu said.
Shi Xiaonian looked at the robot behind her. Mr. Gong stood upright behind her, guarding silently. Seeing her looking over, Mr. Gong said, "Master, I will accompany you back to your room to rest."
"I'm not sleepy yet, please go out for a walk with me."
Shi Xiaonian put his hands behind his back and smiled at it.
"OK."
Mr. Gong will never disobey her master.
Shi Xiaonian walked out with a smile. The lawn outside was dark, with only some floor lamps emitting not very bright light. There was nothing to appreciate in the night scenery.
She stepped on the grass and walked forward alone, Mr. Gong followed her quietly.
There were some people on duty walking around, and they bowed their heads politely when they saw her.
After walking aimlessly for a while, Mr. Gong walked behind her and asked, "Master, if you want to take a walk, you should choose to take a walk during the day. The visibility outside is poor at night."
"You do care about me. I just like walking at night."
Shi Xiaonian smiled and said.
"Why?"
"Because you have to recharge during the day and can't be around me." Shi Xiaonian answered naturally.
After the words fell, Mr. Gong stood there motionless.
Shi Xiaonian looked back at it, with a deeper smile on her face. She walked up to it, raised her hand and poked its cold chest, "Why are you standing still?"
“…”
Mr Gong stood motionless.
"Is it because what I said made you shy?" Shi Xiaonian showed his white teeth, "Can robots be shy too? Are you having too many emotions?"
"All my emotions have only one purpose, which is to be loyal to my master."
The electronic sound of Mr. Palace speaks to her of loyalty.
The light at night was dim and somewhat ambiguous. Shi Xiaonian kept smiling and listened quietly to what it said.
The two stood face to face. After a while, Shi Xiaonian asked, "Do you really regard me as your master now?"
"Of course you are my master."
Mr Gong replied.
"Maybe at the beginning." Shi Xiaonian's smile slowly faded, and she said seriously, "But when your sense of autonomy increases, your feelings for me will not be simple, right?"
“…”
"Your personality and color are almost copied from Gong Ou's. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid you've even passed on this feeling, right?" Shi Xiaonian looked at it and said, "You've passed it down very well."
“…”
Mr. Gong stood in front of her in silence.
Shi Xiaonian looked at it with a clear face, but stopped talking, turned and left, and continued walking forward, leaving her behind.
Soon, Mr. Gong caught up with her, walking closely behind her step by step.
The chirping of some insects came from the woods, which made it feel particularly night-like. When Shi Xiaonian looked into the woods, she saw some fluorescent lights floating in the air.
"It's a firefly."
Shi Xiaonian shouted out in surprise, and walked towards the woods. Her hand was held by Mr. Gong. Mr. Gong looked at her and said, "The light is worse in the woods. It's easy to get lost and fall, so you can't go in."
"I just want to see the fireflies." Shi Xiaonian said.
"Can't!"
Mr. Palace opposed her. This was the first time it opposed her, and its consciousness was almost terrifying.
Shi Xiaonian looked at it with some surprise, with inquiry in her eyes, but she couldn't tell anything from its blue eyes.
Deep in the woods, fireflies are flying, and the stars are dancing.
"Mr. Gong, can you go in and help me catch some fireflies?"
Shi Xiaonian suggested.
"Master likes fireflies?" Mr. Gong asked, Shi Xiaonian nodded, "I like it very much. I haven't seen fireflies for a long time and I want to see them up close."
Hearing this, Mr. Gong did not object anymore and said, "Then you wait for me here, I will go in and catch a few out."
"OK."
Shi Xiaonian raised a smile.
Mr. Gong resolutely turned around and walked into the woods. Shi Xiaonian looked at its tall silver back. The light of those stars flickered in and out of the woods, making the figure flicker.
Shi Xiaonian stood there and watched, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and the emotions in his black and white eyes were complicated and incomprehensible.
The night wind felt cool and comfortable on my face.
She looked around and saw two big chopped trees lying on the ground. Shi Xiaonian walked over and sat down on the tree, looking down at her hands.
The previous injury has recovered, leaving a shallow mark.
She glanced into the woods. Could she really find out anything by testing like this? Is it a robot or...
Soon, Mr. Gong walked out of the woods, and Shi Xiaonian had a smile on his face again, "So fast? Have you caught him?"
There were some fallen leaves hanging on Mr Gong's body. He walked to sit next to her and slowly raised his clenched fist.
Shi Xiaonian lowered her head and slowly opened its fingers carefully and attentively. Fireflies flew out of its palm one after another, and fluorescent dots danced in front of her eyes. It was so beautiful that it was breathtaking.
"so beautiful."
Shi Xiaonian laughed, stretched out a hand, and shuttled her slender fingers among the fireflies. The small fireflies seemed to be resting on her fingertips.
Mr. Gong sat next to her and looked at her. Shi Xiaonian raised his head with a smile on his face, his teeth were white, and his eyes were filled with stars. (To be continued)
