The more the young shop assistant thought about it, the more frightened he became. He immediately fell silent. All he could do was stand respectfully by the counter, trying his best to reduce his presence.
He had already thought that Su Wan was very impressive to be able to work with the Siswell family. Now, she had even brought the Godâs Palaceâs emperor.
This was too...
Just as the young shop assistant was feeling uneasy, he heard the man speak.
However, he wasnât speaking to him, but to Master Liu.
âIâm here to see that robot. Since the raw materials are already gathered, then it will depend on your skills.â
The emperorâs tone wasnât lacking in arrogance, but he spoke in a matter-of-fact manner, with a tone that couldnât be disobeyed.
And hearing it, one could also feel a deep sense of oppression.
Master Liu felt a faint chill on his back, and his fingers trembled slightly.
âI will do my best. I hope I wonât disappoint Your Highnessâ expectations.â
He had never thought that one day he would be able to get so close to the emperor, and in such a situation.
Seeing Master Liuâs trembling appearance, Su Wanâs eyes flashed with a trace of hesitation. She felt slightly uncomfortable in her heart.
In the past, on Earth, it was often said that a government official could oppress a person to death.
And this unfamiliar place was even more orderly. Everyone seemed to have a kind of alienated worship towards the Godâs Palace.
Why was that?
The times had improved, and technology had become more advanced. Shouldnât the idea of equality be promoted even more?
However, the education here seemed to be distorted. That heavy feeling almost made Su Wan breathless.
Su Wan did not want to understand at all. She could only barely understand.
Su Wan pursed her lips. In the end, she did not say anything. She just silently followed Master Liu and Jiang Xuecheng into the inner room.
Su Wan immediately saw the robot in the corner of the room.
The round Nono was half-lying in the corner of the room. Its appearance was no different from before. It was still tattered with many mottled rust marks.
It seemed that she had not heard Nonoâs voice for many days...
Although the soft voice of a child was synthesized electronically, it was always very healing to listen to.
Sometimes, Su Wan even felt that it would be great if her child was as cute as Nono.
Su Wanâs eyes turned sour, and she subconsciously walked forward. She stretched out her jade-white hand and caressed Nonoâs round head.
âNono, wake up quickly.â
Hearing Su Wan softly call the robotâs name, a hint of confusion flashed across the manâs eyes.
This was the robot that Su Wan Wanted to bring with her?
It really looked very ordinary. Even its appearance was so shabby. What was there that can linger?
It would be better to change to a new one...
The emperor indifferently withdrew his gaze and began to look at the interior layout.
Su Wanâs entire body and mind were focused on Nono. She looked deeply at Master Liu with sincere eyes.
âMaster Liu, thank you for your hard work! I really want to see Nono wake up...â
âDonât worry, I will do my best.â
Master Liu smiled, but he was under a lot of pressure. He wasnât able to ignore the pressure now!
With the Emperor of the Godâs Palace here, if he couldnât fix it, wouldnât he destroy the reputation of his shop?
Su Wan glanced at Nono, who was lying in the corner, and nodded solemnly to Master Liu.
âThank you, Master Liu!â
Master Liu smiled and then gave Su Wan a hesitant look.
âMiss Su, this job requires time and a lot of concentration. You and His Highness...â
Without waiting for Master Liu to finish, Su Wan instantly understood what he meant.
Su Wan turned her head and looked at the cold Jiang Xuecheng not far away, then quickly walked over.
âYour Highness, letâs go out first.â
...
In the studio.
Time passed by minute by minute, and Master Liuâs palm could not help but sweat.
He looked cold, wiped the sweat on his palm dry with a towel, and then continued to work.
The polishing of this chip was easier than Master Liu had imagined. He didnât even need to use up that piece of silver tear ore. He could still keep more than half of it.
Even so, Master Liu still didnât dare to relax. He took the tools seriously and continued to work carefully.
...
Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng waited outside the door for a long time. The two of them didnât speak, and the atmosphere seemed to be somewhat cold.
The shop assistant in the shop was even more uneasy. He really wished that he could become invisible at this moment, and no one could see him!
Su Wanâs eyes were filled with anxiety. She would look into the studio from time to time. Every time she heard the sound coming from inside, her heart would jump non-stop.
Nono should wake up, right?
The man at the side glanced at her from the corner of his eyes. He did not understand why Su Wan cared so much about a robot.
Could it be that she was sentimental?
The emperor frowned. To him, the first thing he felt when something could not be used was definitely not to repair it, but to replace it with a new product.
Therefore, he could not understand Su Wanâs emotions at this moment.
When she heard the sounds in the studio stop, Su Wanâs heart skipped a beat, and she felt even more uneasy.
At this moment, she saw Master Liu Walk out.
Master Liuâs head was dripping with sweat, and there was an unconcealed fatigue between his brows.
Su Wanâs heart sank. For a moment, she couldnât tell whether the result was good or bad from Master Liuâs expression.
âMaster Liu, Nono... Is it okay?â
Master Liu suddenly raised his eyebrows, and a bright smile appeared on his old face. âItâs a success! Miss Su, look, you still have half of your silver tear ore left!â
In that instant, Su Wan felt as if she had been hit by a pie. Her heart was filled with surprise, and she could not care less about the silver tear ore.
She did not even look at the remaining bag of silver tear ore. Instead, she rushed into the studio like an arrow.
With apprehension and anticipation, Su Wan turned on Nonoâs Start button.
That pair of big eyes instantly opened. Nono saw the figure that appeared in the eyes, and there was a hint of cuteness in her soft, childlike voice.
âMaster...â
Nono was speaking in Chinese.
Hearing these two familiar but also unfamiliar words, Su Wan choked heavily. Then, without thinking, she reached out and hugged Nono.
Nonoâs body was small, but it was very sturdy.
Su Wan thought that if she could return to Earth one day, she would definitely bring Nono back with her.
This little fellow was too cute, and it even saved her life. She could not leave it.
âDonât scare me anymore.â
The emperor walked into the studio and saw Su Wan hugging a robot. She was crying and laughing, and she was speaking in a completely unfamiliar language.
âWhat were you two talking about just now?â
A deep male voice sounded in her ears. Su Wan was stunned for a moment before she immediately turned her head away.
She did not reply to Jiang Xuechengâs words. Instead, she leaned into Nonoâs ear and spoke softly in Chinese.
âNono, you have to remember, this is my sir.â
