The lifting platform descended rapidly in the shaft, and the lights that kept passing by on the inner wall gave people a never-ending feeling, as if they were falling into the abyss. Several people stood there without saying a word, and the atmosphere was extremely heavy.
"Raeder, I didn't lie to you. You see, there is indeed a forbidden area at home."
Mr. Concern broke the silence and took the initiative to talk to his daughter.
"Oh~ I always thought this was pretending, father, to prevent me from running around..."
Raeder was very uncomfortable with her father's current friendly attitude. After all, he had never taken the initiative to talk nonsense to her in the past few decades.
"I really didn't expect you to dig such a big hole under your house. Aren't you afraid that the building will collapse?"
Lecia looked curious and had no scruples about her husband.
"Madam, the foundation of the building has a large area and can distribute the force evenly to the surrounding area, so digging a hole in the middle will not affect the stability of the structure."
"Yes, yes, I'm just complaining casually. Do I need to explain it seriously? You guys are still so boring!"
"Well……"
Lecia rolled her eyes, not giving Mr. Concern any face. Fortunately, there were no outsiders at the scene, so the image of the rich man would not be ruined.
"By the way, shouldn't we entrust that umbrella company to build this kind of bionic? When did you click on the biotechnology skill points?"
Complaints are complaints, Lecia, who was extremely curious, raised a second question.
"Madam, this is a body that is to be used by our daughter. How can it be handed over to others? Of course I have to fully master the relevant techniques to avoid accidents, and I paid a high price for this."
"Look, how much your father loves you~ Even though he never says it, everything he does revolves around you~"
"Um……"
Raeder still lowered her head, but she was actually indescribably happy in her heart.
"Ms. Sai, I don't know what kind of modifications you have made to my robot, so I can't program the artificial body."
Mr. Concern couldn't think of anything to talk about, so he could only talk about something serious.
"It doesn't matter, you just need to provide the materials and I will complete the transformation myself."
"OK."
"..."
"..."
"After living for so many years, you are even less able to speak than before."
Lecia complained.
"Madam, over the years I have faced all kinds of opponents with evil intentions, and I have to face them with the most ruthless attitude. How can you expect me to make progress in small talk."
"So you are just an idiot! If it were me, I might be able to turn my opponent into an ally!"
"Madam, there are no allies in this era. Everything is an exchange of interests and a temporary partner."
"So you don't understand at all! As long as you fool the other party's brain, won't the interests be consistent with ours? Didn't you act like a fool and shouted that you wanted to give up your family business to pursue some bullshit freedom?
Didn’t I finally cure your brain?”
"Well... this is different, madam. The heads of the consortium cannot make decisions based on personal preferences. They also have to consider the interests of other directors and the entire city. A consortium like mine that is all members of their own is just a special case."
"Come on, it's the same for me to fool one person or to fool a group of people. Anyway, as long as the top management is dealt with, I don't believe those guys need to hold a referendum when making decisions."
"this……"
"Ms. Lecia, you cannot do the above things in this era."
Sai spoke.
"Miss Sai, why do you say this? I have absolute confidence in my personal charm... although there is indeed a slight difference between my appearance and yours."
Lecia is a little unhappy. She is so confident that she cannot accept others denying her communication skills. As the most dazzling star of the past era, she has managed countless big businesses by relying on her charm.
"Ms. Lecia, have you noticed the problems of this era?"
"what is the problem?"
"Even an outstanding girl like Raedel is just a vase for viewing in the eyes of others. She itself does not have much practical use. People in this era no longer act based on personal judgment. They only
Trust the results of supercomputers."
"Yes, ma'am, that's why I can develop to this point smoothly despite being emotionless like a robot. Communication in this era is just embellishment, and the real result of the negotiation depends entirely on how much chips you bring up. Although saying this is suspected of boasting
But...I am indeed better at doing business in this era than you."
"Ha~ You have become more capable!"
"Don't dare. Madam will always be the most capable in my heart, but she is just a little behind the times, just a little bit!"
"Pfft~! Woo..."
Seeing her tall and mighty father trying hard to please her mother, Raeder couldn't help but laugh, but she regretted it as soon as she laughed.
"My child, you are smiling and you are as beautiful as me."
Lecia opened her eyes wide. This was the first time she saw her daughter's smile. Before this, the child always had a submissive and sad face, and she didn't know why.
"oh……"
Raeder didn't dare to say anything, for fear of being blamed by her father.
"Raeder, you don't need to be so afraid of me. I am the last person in the world who is unlikely to hurt you."
Mr. Concern knew his daughter's thoughts very well.
"I know...it's just that I won't be able to get used to it for a while..."
"Look at how you scared the child! You are the one who caused her childhood shadow! If you hadn't been pretending to be a ghost, would she be as timid as she is now!"
Lecia began to criticize her husband.
"Madam, I have no choice! Raeder has been very lively since she was a child. I can't control her. I can only use a majestic image to intimidate her..."
"Stop talking nonsense, it's your fault if this child doesn't become like me in the future! From today on, you must make the child laugh a hundred times a day. If you don't make the child laugh, don't talk to me!"
"This...I can't do it, madam! Can you reduce it to once? If it's only once, I can still try..."
"Have you learned how to bargain with me?"
"Don't dare, don't dare, how dare I bargain with you, madam! I just lower the quota based on the actual situation..."
"Then just wait to be scolded by me! I will scold you every day!"
"Okay madam, you can scold me all you want, but don't scold me in public. After all, I also have an identity..."
"ha?"
"Calm down, madam, calm down!"
Raeder's eyes jumped back and forth on her parents, and an unprecedented strange feeling circulated in her thinking module. She felt that this should be what a family should be like. She learned about the couples of the previous era from her works.
There are often verbal confrontations, also known as quarrels, and perhaps her parents are having them right now. This makes her feel relaxed and comfortable, and she even wants to join in.
"This is not a quarrel. The two parties in the quarrel are hostile to each other, at least temporarily. Your parents do not have any hostile feelings. They are not quarreling."
Sai, who can see through people's hearts, explained to Raedel.
"Then what is this?"
"It's just dog food."
"ah?"
"Also, you actually have the potential to be a third party."
