Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!

Bai Chi opened his mouth, then closed it gloomily: ”Seems like there’s some truth to that...”

Nalan Ye Jue’s lips curled slightly, and he calmly refuted, ”That’s not a stupid robot. It’s an early design of intelligent products. Many design concepts from back then are still not outdated, and I really admire it.”

Qin Xin glanced at him, her eyes flickering slightly, but said nothing.

Lu Yi nodded vigorously along with the Young Master’s words: ”Right, right, my Young Master likes this simple and elegant design the most. Even though anthropomorphic robots have appeared now, the simplicity and rusticity of the early robots cannot be replaced by other designs.”

Bai Chi: ”...”

Tsk tsk, it’s only been a few days, but Lu Yi’s flattery skills seem to have improved recently.

Bai Chi looked at the maintenance manual in his hand, which Qin Xin had identified as counterfeit, feeling a bit frustrated: ”Alright, even if this is fake, what should we do if Jue likes this antique robot so much and it can’t be fixed?”

Lu Yi: ”It’s already fixed.”

He stepped aside, letting in a half-human-tall, entirely white, mobile device through the door.

The simple and modest machine quietly moved to the desk and turned off its indicator light.

It stood there silently, motionless.

Unlike most intelligent robots that flaunt technology and presence flamboyantly, you might not even notice its existence if you’re not paying attention.

Bai Chi suddenly understood why Nalan Ye Jue liked using it.

”Really... I also like having such an obedient and smart woman... cough, cough, cough, robot around.” Bai Chi admired it for a moment, ”I never noticed before how beautiful it is. Tsk, truly a precious antique in the design world. A design from ten years ago that’s still not outdated, what a visionary...”

Nalan Ye Jue interrupted him coolly: ”We don’t need your flattery here.”

Bai Chi: ”Cough, cough, cough!”

Unfair, why don’t you say anything when Lu Yi flatters?

Choked by a certain man’s sharp tongue, Bai Chi’s eyes involuntarily darted around, and he caught sight of two torn pieces of paper on the table from the corner of his eye.

He swiftly picked them up, and when he read the contents, he exclaimed once more: ”Wow, wow, wow, secrets to wooing women? When a woman says she doesn’t want it, she really wants it, hahaha, I’m dying of laughter. Who compiled these materials? Jue, do you need this? If you want information, ask me, I’m a love expert, you don’t need to look at this...”

The atmosphere in the room suddenly turned awkward.

Qin Xin raised her eyes, staring intently at Nalan Ye Jue.

Nalan Ye Jue’s gaze deepened as he glanced at Lu Yi.

Lu Yi didn’t dare breathe, feeling as if a herd of alpacas was stampeding through his mind: Oh my god, how did this Second Young Master Bai discover it?

No, no, no, the main point is, Miss Qin is here too, how is the Young Master going to explain this, it’s too embarrassing.

The next second.

Nalan Ye Jue calmly said, ”It’s not mine. Lu Yi, why did you compile these materials? Don’t handle personal matters during work hours.”

Lu Yi: ”......”

Oh, so now he’s been mercilessly turned into the scapegoat by the Young Master?

Qin Xin curiously asked, ”Lu Yi, what are you looking up these for, are you in love?”

Lu Yi: ”...I, I don’t know.”

Seeing the cold and sharp gaze from Mr. Emperor sweep over him, he immediately changed his tune: ”Yes, I’m in love!”

Qin Xin: ”With whom?”

Bai Chi: ”With whom? Damn, you Inner Palace Experts work like dogs, and you still have time to date, I don’t believe it!”

Lu Yi’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he said with difficulty, ”I, I, I’ve fallen in love with Xinghe...”
