"This ......" Xu Yi couldn't help but scratch his head, thinking that he was really careless enough.

In fact, it's not to blame Xu Yi for saying this, he doesn't have a lot of contact with girls on the earth, and he usually stays with cold machines and numbers, so he is very dull in this regard.

And this little slave is too thin and weak, and his development is not good at all, and he can't see any girl characteristics at all.

If it weren't for the special circumstances, Xu would have been so misunderstood.

Seeing the embarrassed look on Xu Yi's face, Steele suddenly laughed.

"Hey, Xu Yi, when I saw such a little girl in your house, I thought you had a special hobby like the ** in those nobles. Now that I look at it, I misunderstood you. ”

Xu Yi couldn't help but roll his eyes.

What is a special hobby? Even if you have that kind of mind, you won't be tempted by such a child like bean sprouts, right?

"Don't talk about me, tell me why you came to my house first?" Xu Yi asked angrily. "How did you know I lived here? and if you think I'm a **, why are you staying here? and what do you mean by cooking for me?"

"You have a lot of questions. Steele muttered. "Thanks to you, I've done that piano model thoroughly. I came to you to invite you out to dinner as a thank you, but I didn't expect to see you asleep as soon as I came. Seeing how tired you look, I can't bear to wake you up. After thinking about it, I'll just make you a meal. How's it going? Look at the mess you look like here, you never have anyone to cook for you, right? Thank you for me?"

Steele's pretty face is like a flower, and adding this delicate and cute smile makes Xu Yi's eyes light up, and he can't help but be stunned.

"Uh...... I said, you want to invite me to dinner, but you use the materials I bought and use my tools, this is too economical, right?"

"Cut, I'll cook by myself, this is a treatment that is difficult for grandpa to enjoy, be content with you. Steele snorted coldly and pointed to the room inside. "Go and call that little girl out for dinner. Although she shouldn't have eaten with us as a slave, I don't think you seem to see her as a slave. ”

"Of course, there shouldn't be slaves in this world. Xu Yi sighed, shook his head, and walked to the inner room.

Hearing Xu Yi's subconscious exclamation, Steele was slightly stunned, and his eyes looking at Xu Yi's back were full of brilliance.

"By the way, Xu Yi, in addition to inviting you to dinner to express my gratitude, there is another thing I want to inform you by the way. During the meal, Steele said suddenly.

"Hmm, what's the matter? Could it be that because I've taken too much leave during this time, Grand Magician Camilla is not satisfied and has decided to fire me?"

"Go, who said they were going to fire you?" Steele's eyes widened, and he pointed at Xu Yi and said: "Sue you, grandpa is very optimistic about you, although you refused to be his apprentice, but he said that your magical talent is high enough, and there are always some novel ideas, staying in the magic tower may inspire him, how can he be willing to fire you." ”

"That's good. That's not to expel me, what do you need to notify me?"

"Listen up. Xu Yi, although I don't know why you don't care so much about improving your magic strength, I must tell you very strictly, since you are already a magician, then on the Sainz Continent, the magician level is almost equal to one qiē of yours. Steele's face became extremely straight, and it was obvious that what she was saying now was very serious. "There are less than three months left to be the time for the annual unified certification assessment of the Magician Guild, and Grandpa, as a three-star magician recognized by the Magician Guild, has three recommended places in his hand, and he decided to give you one place and recommend you to participate in the qualification certification assessment of the Magician Guild. Do you understand what that means?"

Xu Yi shook his head very honestly: "I don't understand." ”

Stilton couldn't maintain a stern expression, and shouted angrily: "Stupid you! You don't understand this? If it is a candidate recommended by the great magician, the magician's union will appropriately relax some criteria when conducting the qualification assessment. In other words, as long as you have this recommended place, the qualification assessment will be much easier than that of ordinary magicians!"

"And then, become a magician whose strength does not match his rank?" Xu Yi asked rhetorically.

Steele was stunned, speechless for a while.

Because she suddenly found that Xu Yi's rhetorical question was actually in one sentence, so that she couldn't refute it at all.

Seeing Steele's speechless appearance, Xu Yi smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to Steele: "Give it to me." ”

"What for you?" asked Steele.

"What does it mean to be recommended? I just ran to the Wizards' Guild and told others that I was recommended by Grand Magician Camilla, and the Magicians Guild would believe it, right?"

Steele was stunned and asked, "Don't you want this recommendation?"

"Who said I didn't want it?"

"But you just said ......"

"Yes, yes, but I also know very well what this assessment represents. Xu Yi said with a smile. "I'm twenty-seven years old this year, and I'm not an idealistic kid like you, how can I put convenience and don't know how to take advantage of it? Besides, this also represents the great magician Camilla...... Well, and your kindness, if I refuse, wouldn't it be a waste of your kindness?"

Steele looked at Xu Yi blankly for a while, then suddenly slapped the table vigorously, stood up suddenly, and angrily dropped a sentence: "You are a child!"

After that, he left without looking back.

Looking at Steele's disappearing back, Xu Yiwan smiled and shook his head.

It seems that this sentence is her taboo, and she can't say it lightly in front of her in the future. ”

Turning his head and catching a glimpse of the little slave on the side looking at him blankly, with a look of confusion, Xu Yi smiled slightly and said to her: "I'm sorry, I've been busy for so many days, and I don't have time to have a good chat with you." How's it going? Are you used to being here?"

The little slave shook his head at first, and then suddenly nodded vigorously as if he remembered something.

Xu Yi frowned slightly: "You...... Can't you speak?"

The little slave nodded.

"What does that mean, can you speak or can't?"

The little slave opened his mouth slowly, and it took a few moments before he spit out a few syllables: "Yes...... Can you speak...... Words ......"

Judging by her slightly hoarse voice and the pronunciation of Ai Ai, it was as if she hadn't spoken for a long time, so that she was now very unskilled in speaking.

Xu Yi thought about it, scooped a spoonful of broth and poured it into her bowl.

"You don't have to be so afraid of me, although I bought you back, I won't treat you as a slave, and I won't beat you, you can rest assured. ”

The little slave glanced at the broth in the bowl and nodded slightly.

"I ...... I know...... Know, you'...... Be...... It's good guys. ”

"Ha, I was given a good guy card. Xu Yi chuckled. "By the way, what's your name? ”

"Wei ...... Vivien......"

"Vivien? Xu Yi praised it, and saw a look of pain on the little slave's face, knowing that this name might have triggered some painful memories for her, so she shook her head and asked no more.

He knew that this little slave's life must have been very difficult before, and her psychological shadow was very strict, and if she wanted to dissolve it, she would need to work hard for a long time and slowly, and she couldn't rush it for a while.

After eating, the little slave took the initiative to start cleaning up the dishes, Xu Yi thought about it, and did not stop her action.

Letting her do something now actually makes it easier for her to integrate into her new life, which is actually a good thing for her.

Xu also did a few exercises as usual, and then returned to the workshop.

The magic header and the magic tooth rubbing machine have been successfully developed, which means that the second version of the variable speed magic fan is about to be officially put into mass production, and before that, Xu Yi still has a lot of problems to solve.

Although it is only three more words than the first version of the magic fan, the changes to the magic array and the overall design of the fan involved are very complicated, and many jù need to be recalculated.

However, there are many things involved in this that he can't do by others at all, because he is currently the only one who is proficient in the relevant knowledge of the magic array and the mechanical industry at the same time, and he is the only one who can perfectly combine the two.

"Talent is rare. Thinking of the massive problems that needed to be solved, Xu Yi couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

If there were as many highly educated and knowledgeable people as there were on Earth, his work would not be so hard.

But thinking about it the other way, if there were so many relevant talents on the Sainz continent on the earth, Xu Yi would definitely not be able to earn a lot of money just by relying on a magic fan with low technical content.

"As the saying goes, you can't have both. ”

Xu Yi shook his head with a wry smile, and was about to regain his spirits and start researching, when a tray suddenly stretched out from the side.

Looking at the steaming cup of strong tea on the tray, Xu Yi smiled and said, "Vivian, you don't have to worry about me, go to sleep by yourself." ”

Vivian put the teacup in Xu Yi's hand, lowered her head and lowered her hand, and said softly, "Serve...... Serving the master, yes...... It's my job. ”

Xu Yi smiled, didn't bother to continue to persuade her, turned his head and continued to work.

At first, Vivian bowed her head and stood beside Xu Yi with some restraint, but after a while, she raised her head and looked at Xu Yi, who was focused on her work, with a curious expression.

This new owner is really much better to himself than the previous master.

But why did he work so hard?
