Chapter 815: If You Can’t Make, Leave. Don’t Disturb Us
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The expressions of the engineers sank. How dare this girl try to challenge them?!
Engineer Peng’s expression seemed to be saying: ‘We are indeed making things difficult for you, if you can’t take it, take your leave…’. He then indeed opened his mouth and said, “If you can’t make it, leave. Don’t disturb us.”
Zi Yi glanced at them and she returned to her seat and continued to weld the connecting lines.
However, this time round, she was so fast that she finished welding all the connecting lines in less than half an hour.
After finishing the circuit board, it was just in time for lunch and the engineers were preparing to leave for lunch.
“Zi Yi, we’re going to eat. You will come with us.”
Engineer Meng called Zi Yi to follow them not because he had a change of attitude toward her, but because he was worried about leaving her here alone.
Zi Yi was also hungry and so, she put the circuit board aside and followed them outside.
After the engineers left the building, none of them spoke. All of them passed through all sorts of scanning equipment and headed towards the gate.
When they discovered that Zi Yi did not have to go through a lot of the scanning equipment, they were sneering deep down inside.
If it was said that this kind of person did not go through the backdoor, they would not believe it.
Every department had its own canteen. There was a wide variety of dishes here and the food also looked nutritious.
The engineers checked out the International Robot Competition while they ate.
Zi Yi sat next to them and concentrated on eating.
Just then, Engineer Meng suddenly turned around and asked, “Zi Yi, where did you get the parts for the robots that were displayed during the exhibition?”
Engineer Meng’s question was well constructed. He clearly wanted to probe and find out who made the robots for Zi Yi, but he did not explicitly ask this.
Zi Yi thought about it for a moment. She would not tell others that all the parts were basically created by her company and that she had personally created some of the parts, so instead she only said, “Ah Jing bought them for me.”
The engineers thought to themselves, “As expected.”
Subsequently, none of them paid her any more attention.
There were fruits served after the meal. When Zi Yi had just grabbed her fork and eaten two pieces of fruit, she saw Guard Zhu coming in from outside.
Guard Zhu directly made his way over to Zi Yi and asked, “Miss Zi, Mr. Tang sent me here to ask you if you’re used to the new environment?”
“It’s not bad. It’s just that I was a little hungry because there weren’t any snacks.”
Upon hearing this, the engineers furrowed their brows.
Engineer Yang said crossly, “This is not a vacation home. If you wish to eat during work, leave.”
Zi Yi glanced at Engineer Yang before turning to look at Guard Zhu.
Guard Zhu also swept his gaze across the engineers. Upon seeing that they were somewhat dissatisfied with Zi Yi, he originally wanted to say something to help Zi Yi, but ended up saying nothing. In the end, he merely said, “There’s a lounge area in that research lab. I’ll prepare some snacks and milk for you and you can eat directly in the lounge.”
Zi Yi nodded her head.
Guard Zhu turned to leave while he was under the dissatisfied gazes of the engineers.
Not only did she come in through the backdoor, she even asked for snacks in the middle of work?
“Did you really think that you have come here to play? If you can’t finish your mechanical horse today, I hope that you’ll be more self-conscious tomorrow and won’t come to work with our team.”
Zi Yi looked at Engineer Peng who spoke and she nodded her head in response. “Sure.”
The engineers were angered by her attitude, so they stood up and headed outside.
They had an hour or two break at noon. Therefore, there was a nap room in the lounge of the laboratory.
They were worried about Zi Yi, for fear that she would randomly touch things when they took a rest, so Engineer Meng purposely tried scaring her.
“We are going for a rest now and so you had better sit here without moving. Everything in here is made from special materials and you will bear legal responsibility if anything is damaged.”
Zi Yi nodded her head. “Ok.”
Thus, the engineers headed to the lounge.
After lying down, Engineer Chang was still somewhat worried. “Why doesn’t one of us keep watch over her? What should we do if she really breaks something in there?”
Engineer Meng thought for a moment and sat up. “I’ll keep watch over her. In the event she touches Moonlight, it’ll be trouble.”
Having said that, he put on his shoes and headed outside.
Zi Yi did not sit there without doing anything. Instead, she went over to work on the mechanical horse she made.
By the time Engineer Meng came out, he just so happened to see her knocking around the mechanical horse.
Looking at the small hammer in her hand, Engineer Meng quickened his footsteps.
“What are you doing?”
Zi Yi turned to look at Engineer Meng. Her gaze was filled with alienation and indifference.
Engineer Meng furrowed his brows and stopped three meters away from her as he looked at her.
Zi Yi knew that those engineers looked down on her. In fact, she looked down on them too. She usually disliked talking too much to these sorts of people and couldn’t be bothered to answer. In the end, she continued using her small hammer to knock on the joints of the mechanical horse.
Seeing how Zi Yi did not answer his question, Engineer Meng narrowed his eyes and he said in a heavy voice, “No matter how you got in here, you have to follow the rules and behave in our department. Everything here is our treasure and you had better not touch anything that shouldn’t be touched.”
Zi Yi finally looked up at him again with an expression of indifference. “I won’t touch your things.”
When Engineer Meng was about to say: ‘it had better be the case’, Zi Yi had already said something else. “The robots that you people have made, can’t even enter my eyes.”
“You-”
Engineer Meng suddenly felt as though something was stuck in his chest. He had seen arrogant people before, but not someone so arrogant as her!
“HA! In that case, I would like to see how capable you are then!”
He planned to teach her a lesson. “You must finish making the mechanical horse today and as for its functions, it must have the ability to jump and run… In any case, whatever a real horse can do, your mechanical horse must be able to do the same.”
Zi Yi did not even look at him and casually asked, “Do you want it to eat grass? Then you had better go and prepare some grass first.”
Engineer Meng was stifled by her words.
He took a deep breath and pointed to the pile of spare parts on the side. “What kind of grass would a mechanical horse eat? If you can make your mechanical horse eat one of the parts in that pile, it’ll be your win.”
“Win? Are you trying to make a bet with me?”
“If that’s what you think, let it be so; a bet it is then.”
“What are the stakes?”
Engineer Meng: “…”
His hand itched so much. He was so tempted to throw this arrogant child outside!
If he knew earlier, he would have gotten Engineer Peng to come out instead. With Engineer Peng’s appearance, he could at the very least scare this arrogant child.
However, since she wanted to bet with something, he would give her what she wanted. In any case, she couldn’t possibly achieve his requirements.
“If your mechanical horse is that capable, I’ll call you Boss.”
Zi Yi finally shifted her head up and looked at him. Her eyes were sizing him up and her gaze was followed by emotions of disdain.
Engineer Meng: “…”
There was a curse word floating around in his mind and he was honestly considering if he should say it.
F*ck!
Zi Yi looked away and casually answered in agreement as she continued making the control panel.
Subsequently, the other engineers came out to start work and Zi Yi and Engineer Meng never exchanged another word between them.
The five of them surrounded Moonlight and Engineer Chu was the first to ask, “Did that person touch anything?”
Engineer Meng had a cloudy expression. “No.”
Following that, he told them about the conversation he had with Zi Yi.
Upon hearing this, all their expressions turned gloomy.
