Chapter 817: Beautiful Girls Have The Right To Hit People
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The injury and insult Zi Yi inflicted on the five engineers was too great.
Moonlight helped Zi Yi build the mechanical horse. The horse could not only run and jump around like a real horse, but it could also eat a few spare parts lying around while carrying Zi Yi on its back. The setback the engineers received was so huge that they could not have any other thoughts against Zi Yi anymore.
Zi Yi rode on the mechanical horse and roamed around the laboratory twice before she alighted and looked at the engineers.
The few of them suddenly recovered their senses.
Zi Yi raised her chin and said to Engineer Meng, “You can call me boss now.”
Engineer Meng felt that something was stuck in his throat. He clenched his fists and held his breath back with a flushed complexion. He refused to call her boss.
Zi Yi’s expression turned cold. “So you’re someone who fails to keep his promises?”
Engineer Meng was startled and he subconsciously called out, “Boss.”
Zi Yi nodded her head and headed towards the door.
“What are you doing?”
“I’m getting off work and going home.”
“…!”
The group of engineers looked at the closed door and said nothing. They quickly headed to the mechanical horse that Zi Yi had made and started checking it over.
“What the f*ck?! I can’t believe she managed to use the spare parts we threw away to this extent!”
“How exactly did she do this?”
“Oh my gos.h.!.+ She made a hole in our Moonlight!”
“Only the five of us know of Moonlight’s program. How was she able to casually control Moonlight?!”
The more they said, the angrier they became. In the end, they started up Moonlight, which Zi Yi had shut down earlier, and quickly checked if she had changed the program they set up for Moonlight.
The engineers started putting their hands on Moonlight and just then, its ice-cold mechanical voice sounded. “Please do not hara.s.s me or I’ll beat you up.”
Their expressions stiffened and they felt as uncomfortable as if they had eaten flies.
“Moonlight, you don’t remember us anymore?” Engineer Peng, who had an appearance of someone who had crossed paths with the triad, burst into tears at once after asking that question.
The other four were also feeling extremely upset.
Just then Moonlight’s mechanical voice sounded once again. “You’re already an adult and here you are, crying. Looking at Little Zi. She’s beautiful, clever, and treats me gently.”
The five of them: “…”
Engineer Chu could not take it anymore and said angrily, “She caused a dent in your body and so how is she considered as being gentle?”
Moonlight spoke up righteously. “Beautiful girls have the right to hit people.”
The five of them: “…”
When Mr. Tang came over, he discovered the five engineers crouching in the corner together, looking as though the reason they were facing the wall was because they were reflecting.
Even though he had seen the whole situation through the surveillance camera, he still had to pretend not to know anything and so he asked, “I wonder what you think about Little Zi? If you think that she’s really not good, I’ll get her to stop coming tomorrow.”
The moment Mr. Tang said that, the five of them suddenly jumped to their feet.
Engineer Peng strained his neck and said, “No. She has to come tomorrow.”
Engineer Chu said with a flushed expression, “In addition to tomorrow, the day after tomorrow… and every single day after that!”
Engineer Cheng gritted his teeth. “She caused a hole in Moonlight and we have to let her know that she is in the wrong and make her suffer the consequences.”
Engineer Yang said with a sneer, “She’s such an arrogant girl and we plan to give her a good lesson!”
Engineer Meng’s expression was still considered to be somewhat normal. “Since she’s someone Mr. Tang brought over, we will respect your decision.”
Looking at the insincere expressions of the five engineers, Mr. Tang nodded his head and headed over to Moonlight. He then looked at the hole in the heart area (where the control panel is located) and raised a suggestion. “You can fill this hole.”
“What do you mean by filling the hole? We’ll keep it and let Zi Yi feel guilty.”
“That’s right. We’ll let her see her masterpiece every day in the future.”
Mr. Tang: “…”
Well… do as you like then.
…
By the time Zi Yi went out of the research lab area, Guard Zhu was already waiting for her outside.
“Miss Zi, Mr. Tang sent me over to escort you out.”
Zi Yi nodded her head and they headed to leave together.
After walking for some distance, they arrived at where a car was parked.
Just as Guard Zhu opened the door for Zi Yi, someone called her from the side, “Little Zi, are you going back now?”
Both of them turned around at the same time.
They saw a middle-aged man wearing a uniform walking their way with a smile on his face.
Guard Zhu immediately stood upright and gave the man a salute. “Deputy Director Huang.”
Deputy Director Huang returned his salute and turned to look at Zi Yi.
Deputy Director Huang was 46 years old this year and he seemed to be someone amicable. He said to Zi Yi, “It just so happens that I’m going out too. Why don’t I send Little Zi off instead.”
His words were meant for Guard Zhu.
Guard Zhu turned to look at Zi Yi.
Zi Yi did not mind. After all, they were only sending her to the entrance of the research base. Ah Jing would be waiting outside the entrance to fetch her.
Guard Zhu saw no rejection from Zi Yi and pa.s.sed the car keys to Deputy Director Huang.
When both of them got into the car and the car drove out, Deputy Director Huang casually asked, “You spent the day in the S-Cla.s.s AI Robot Department today, how did you find it?”
“It was okay.”
“The few engineers in the S-Cla.s.s AI Robot Department are usually a little more arrogant than others. They will definitely try to find ways to make things difficult for you since you just joined in. However, there’s no need for you to be worried. They are easy to get along well with and in fact, they will be convinced by someone who is more capable than them.”
Speaking of this, he paused for two seconds before he asked, “I’ve always had a question I wanted to ask you. I wonder if you mind?”
“What is it?”
“You’re very skilled in the area of robotics. Where did you learn all that knowledge from?”
Zi Yi tilted her head and looked at Deputy Director Huang.
Deputy Director Huang also glanced in her direction. There was a smile in his eyes as he said, “I was only asking casually. If it’s not convenient for you to answer, it doesn’t matter.”
“I learned it on my own.”
“Really?”
“Yes, this isn’t hard to do anyways.”
Zi Yi’s tone of voice was too confident. It was so confident to the extent that Deputy Director Huang was almost ready to believe that making robots was really not as difficult as everyone else made it seem.
However, as the Deputy Director here, he was clearly aware of whether it was hard or not.
He felt that Zi Yi was being perfunctory with him and smiled. “It doesn’t matter if you do not wish to answer.”
Having said that, he started driving seriously.
A few minutes after the car drove out, a woman wearing a uniform suddenly walked out in front.
The woman was wearing a uniform and a hat. At the sight of their car, she waved at them.
Deputy Director Huang explained to Zi Yi about the woman’s ident.i.ty. “She’s the leader of the Administration Department here, Leader Li.”
Following that, he drove the car towards Leader Li and parked next to her.
Leader Li looked to be around her thirties. Within the mature and capable aura she gave off, there were slight traces of gentleness. She seemed to be someone who can plan out her work life very well.
Deputy Director Huang rolled down the window and asked, “Leader Li, is there something up?”
After Leader Li saluted him she said, “Deputy Director Huang, are you going out? Can you give me a ride for a short distance? I’m headed to the first administrative building.”
The first administrative building was located somewhere near the entrance of the base. Deputy Director Huang definitely had no opinion and so, he said, “Come on in.”
Leader Li first nodded to Zi Yi before she walked to the back door and pulled open the door.
After the car drove out, Deputy Director Huang casually asked Leader Li, “I heard Old Zheng saying that the higher-ups will be sending some special parts over. Will it be sent over from there or do we need to go and collect it ourselves?”
“Some parts were specially requested by several important R&D teams. When the time comes, each team would have to send someone over to inspect the goods.”
