Volume I: Chapter 93: Introduction and Gifts
Regardless of whether or not Nichole will receive another bento in the future, at least Nichole is still in front of us for now, so we are happy to support his lofty ideals. In fact, if we could, we wouldn't mind listening to a recital that Nicol might give after the war was over, maybe maybe a recital, laugh~
Nichole seemed satisfied with the unequivocal support of me and Lux, and he relaxed his back slightly on the soft sofa, holding a delicate porcelain cup in both hands to sip the milk tea that had not been fully tasted before.
After drinking the milk tea in his hand, he stretched out his hand to lift the teapot, and filled it with Aslan, who also drank milk tea, and added a cup to himself...... Well, the more I drink, the more I want to drink. ”
Hearing this, Lux, who turned into a little hamster nibbling on biscuits with me, raised her head from the delicious dessert, revealing a little face with a little cookie crumbs sticking to the corners of her mouth, and pouted her slightly puffed cheeks delicately, and said softly, "If you like it, you can take some back and drink it......" After speaking, Lux lowered his head and continued to be a little hamster.
"This little pot friend, do you also think pink milk tea is delicious? That's a coincidence, I just think it's delicious...... So, can I sit here? Little pot friend. ”
A gust of fragrant wind came from one side, and then Kong Wanying's melodious voice rang in our ears along with the left sentence of a small pot friend and the right sentence of a small pot friend, and then Kong Wanying and Rong Hongyuan's figures appeared in the sight of me and Lux unsurprisingly.
Since today is my birthday and engagement dinner with Lux, Kong Wanying and Rong Hongyuan are dressed more formally.
Among them, Kong Wanying's dress is similar to the dress she once wore when she went to the auction with us, she is wearing a light gray seven-foot sleeve white-collar dress, in addition to her slender legs in reflective light gray stockings, it is naturally her towering jade peak that is not worth her life...... It's a pity that there are either women (maids), children (us), or uncles (career-focused), and none of them care about her beautiful appearance, so naturally they are flattering to the blind - blind work.
As Kong Wanying's partner, Rong Hongyuan's dress today is not inferior, he used to be like a pair of black broken hair that has not been taken care of for several days and is unexpectedly neat today, the broken hair on the forehead of the left and right seven shows Rong Hongyuan's somewhat thin face, with a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, and even the pair of black and white slender eyes seem to be smiling, which makes people feel extraordinarily gentle at first sight, and has the feeling of someone else's handsome little brother...... Hawkers, to put it simply, it's a talented woman.
"Uh, this big sister...... There's also a location there......"
Nichol didn't seem to be used to being in contact with a big sister like Kong Wanying, and after Kong Wanying came over, he moved his ass stiffly, and then stretched out his finger and pointed to the sofa next to us.
“……”
Hearing this, Kong Wanying's face froze, she never expected that her invincible affinity (that is, the so-called charm) would be invalid in Nichol? Well, those who can come to the Klein Mansion are not ordinary people, to understand, to understand......
"Uh...... Hehe, then go sit in that position, Hongyuan? ”
Kong Wanying paused as she spoke, and then turned her head sideways to look at Rong Hongyuan, of course, we have reason to believe that Kong Wanying is just diverting her gaze, because her opinion itself already represents Rong Hongyuan's opinion, and Rong Hongyuan really nodded dispensably.
got rid of the embarrassed Kong Wanying, and then Rong Hongyuan took a step to the sofa next to us and sat down.
"You've already met your father and Uncle Pacritt, haven't you?"
After Kong Wanying and Rong Hongyuan sat down, I asked as soon as I opened my mouth.
"Well, we've already met......" This time it wasn't Kong Wanying answering my inquiry, but Rong Hongyuan, I saw a faint smile on his handsome face, and after answering my question in a gentle tone, he said with a smile, "It's a pity that talking to these big people makes me nervous easily, so I didn't say anything to them......" After speaking, Rong Hongyuan shrugged his shoulders.
"That's because you're nervous, but it has nothing to do with me."
Rong Hongyuan's words made Kong Wanying reach out and pat him on the shoulder dissatisfied, Kong Wanying muttered, and at the same time gave Rong Hongyuan a beautiful and charming white eye for free, which made Rong Hongyuan laugh embarrassedly.
"Come on, if you want to show affection, then go to the side, and don't disturb our friendship."
Seeing that Kong Wanying and Rong Hongyuan inexplicably and suddenly showed their affection (the dog food feeding mode was turned on), someone suddenly refused with an indifferent face.
Lux, who returned to reality from the sweet dim sum world because of Kong Wanying's show-style questioning, couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh when she heard someone's sarcastic words...... How can you make such fun of Sister Wanying and Brother Hongyuan? Bad ......" of course, Lux said so, but just looking at her joyful appearance, it would be very unconvincing.
"Okay, let's not talk about these things, I'll introduce you to you, this is Aslan......" I whispered, I stretched out my hand and pointed to Aslan who was sitting opposite, "Aslan's full name is Aslan Sarah, since you have stayed in December, I think you should have heard of the surname Sarah, right?" ”
Of course, they couldn't have known what Sarah's surname meant in December, so they looked at Aslan who was sitting in front of him with the eyes of a strange species, and nodded to him in a friendly way.
"This is Nichol, Nicol Amalfi, the new friend we just met today." I pointed to Nichol, who was sitting next to Aslan, and continued, "Amalfi is also a member of the Twelve Plants family, and the Lion Palace (May) is a colonial satellite specializing in applied mechanical engineering, basic metallurgy, applied metallurgy, applied materials engineering, and humanoid mechanical engineering. ”
After finishing speaking, I turned the finger at Kong Wanying and Rong Hongyuan, and said with a smile: "These two are the main persons in charge of the newly established research institute between me and Lux, and the one who teased Nichol just now is Kong Wanying, the new director of the research institute that I established privately with Lux; And the angry man sitting next to her is her boyfriend and her deputy. Of course, if there are no accidents in the future, the two of them will be husband and wife. ”
Hearing such a strange introduction from me, Kong Wanying, as one of the protagonists who was introduced, suddenly showed a dissatisfied expression on her pretty face, and she muttered, "Am I teasing?" I'm just asking for the usual thing, yes! That's it! When she said this, Kong Wanying nodded affirmatively, but unfortunately no one paid attention to her defense.
After Aslan and Nichol smiled at each other, the two of them looked at me with a little puzzled, obviously they didn't quite understand why I introduced Kong Wanying and Rong Hongyuan to the two of them.
"Nichole probably already guessed it, right? That's right, Lux and I privately set up another R&D institution that is different from the family's existing research institute, and Kong Wanying and Rong Hongyuan are the main leaders of this R&D institution. Of course, the reason why I want you to get to know each other first is because I have some R&D projects that may need to be developed in collaboration with your family's research institutes...... Well, but that's for later, so it's better to think of it as making friends now. ”
Hearing this, Aslan and Nichol, who had already understood the meaning of my words, nodded with a smile, and promised one after another, "If there is anything that needs to be used by me at that time, you can come to me directly, but the elders are in charge of everything in the family, so if you can't help at that time, please forgive me." ”
It's a very formulaic answer, but it's already satisfying for Lux and I.
In fact, this idea only came out of nowhere after meeting Nichol, because many key steps such as mobile suit R&D, design, and production are almost impossible to avoid dealing with the Lion Palace, which is good at this, so getting to know each other in advance can avoid a lot of unnecessary troubles.
"That's right, boy, this is the birthday present that Hongyuan and I bought for you and Lux."
After the brief introduction, Kong Wanying turned around and pulled out a simple gift box from the small hanging bag she was carrying, and she handed it to Lux while saying simply, "You also know the current situation between me and Hongyuan, we are poor, very poor, so the gift for you can only be the simplest thing - you can buy writing crystal for two yuan, but it is actually a crystal sculpture of fake and shoddy products." ”
When Kong Wanying complained to herself about the gift she and Rong Hongyuan prepared for us, Lux, who had already received Rong Hongyuan's consent, was skillfully unwrapping the gift, and when Kong Wanying finished complaining to herself, Lux happened to completely unwrap the gift and handed a crystal sculpture to me like a treasure.
"Kiki, Kiki...... See ......"
Although this crystal sculpture is only a thing that can be bought for two yuan in Kong Wanying's mouth, when it is actually displayed in front of us, no one believes that it is really only worth two yuan.
The crystal sculpture held by Lux in both hands is simple in shape, just a transparent figure in the shape of a man and a woman and two children in the shape of a mouth-to-mouth 'Kiss', well, this is a very simple shape...... If you ignore their apparently overly ambiguous behavior. By the way, this ambiguous behavior made Aslan and Nichol's little faces blush (including Lux, only I didn't change color after a long battle).
Of course, this is not the point, the point is that its material is completely free of any impurities, just like a real crystal (Lux and I doubted Kong Wanying's 'worth two dollars'), under the illumination of the light, not only is it transparent and flawless, but even the refracted brilliance is particularly dazzling, and these lights even form a circle of colorful and beautiful halos in Lux's white palm, this dream-like scenery is not enough to describe with the word beautiful.
"If this thing is worth only two dollars, then I don't think my gift is even two dollars......"
Looking at the beautifully shaped 'chic' crystal sculpture in Lux's hand, Aslan opened his mouth, suddenly not knowing what to say. Fortunately, at this time, Kong Wanying interjected, "It is only so beautiful when it is illuminated by light, and at other times it is just an ordinary fake and shoddy crystal." ”
Nicole, who was watching this dream-like beautiful scenery intently, finally came back to his senses at this time, and Nicole, who happened to hear Kong Wanying's words, subconsciously retorted, "This transparent and flawless material, no matter how you look at it, it is a crystal with high purity...... It's too ...... to say that it's a counterfeit product," with Nicole's tutor, he couldn't speak foul language, so at this time, it was like he was stuck, and he couldn't say half a word with his mouth open.
"It's really just a 'fake', it's not a real crystal, and the difference between it and the real crystal is ......"
This time, it wasn't that Kong Wanying was squeaking there, but that Rong Hongyuan was explaining the difference between the two, although a series of professional terms in his mouth made us fall into a state of unconsciousness for a while......
