The female anchor of the Imperial Royal Television Station's Guiyuan Star Mulan City branch retired in shame, while other self-media anchors swarmed forward, eager to learn more about the cool features of the Second Generation Mecha.
Su Buyan was beaming with pride: "Our troops will be equipped with them soon, and you'll find out then!"
"In short, any function you can think of, we have it!"
"Any function you haven't thought of, we also have it!"
"Also, don't even think about stealing them and selling them to other countries, we have backdoor programs for everything! Hahahaha!"
Amidst Su Buyan's laughter, he, Xia Chujian, Xia Yuanfang, and Quan Yuxun walked through the doors of the Bai Wei Ju restaurant.
Meng Guanghui led several Special Security Bureau staff members to carry out perimeter security work.
That evening, Bai Wei Ju was filled with celebrities and Nobles, a scene of elegant attire, fragrant hair, and clinking glasses.
The ordinary classmates and teachers Xia Chujian had invited, as well as her Dark Night Hunter Team teammates Li Fu, Song Mingqian, and Ping Qiong, were all stunned.
They didn't even bother to eat, secretly using their Quantum Optical Brain Wristwatch Carriers to constantly photograph the celebrities they had previously only seen in Star Network gossip and television news.
Quan Yuxun and Su Buyan were, of course, the center of attention.
...
Zong Ruoan sat in the expensively decorated apartment he had once purchased, watching the grand banquet on television, and sighed deeply.
He had originally wanted to go in person, but Quan Yuxun had dissuaded him.
Quan Yuxun said that if he hadn't staged that "confession" stunt on the Star Network to gain popularity, it wouldn't matter if he went.
But he had staged that stunt, and even though he deleted it later, the impact had already been made.
He had to keep his distance from Xia Chujian, or the gossip media would see them together, which would cause trouble for Xia Chujian.
Although Zong Ruoan very much wanted to be elected as a Councilor, he knew what was important at this time.
In fact, subconsciously, he valued Xia Chujian's opinion and feelings more.
For example, when he asked Xia Chujian to be his Contract Girlfriend, he never expected that Xia Chujian would refuse and be unhappy.
But the mistake had already been made, and he could only hope to make up for it in the future.
However, he could also feel that Xia Chujian was drifting further and further away from him.
They used to be so close, and in his heart, he was Xia Chujian's support, and she was still the fragile girl who needed him to protect her.
But looking at the contract Xia Chujian had signed, he inexplicably felt that this might be the last thing Xia Chujian would do for him.
From then on, they would be like strangers, each going their separate ways, each finding their own happiness.
Therefore, after listening to Quan Yuxun's words, he silently transferred a red envelope of 666,666 Beichen Coins to Xia Chujian, and left a message.
[Zong Ruoan]: Chujian, I wish you a lifetime of smoothness, fulfillment, and satisfaction.
...
It wasn't until the end of the banquet, when Xia Chujian returned to her home, that she had time to glance at her Quantum Optical Brain Wristwatch Carrier.
Seeing Zong Ruoan's red envelope and message, Xia Chujian rubbed her dizzy forehead, thinking that Young Master Zong was finally down to earth and able to perceive other people's emotions.
She didn't know what had made him grow...
Maybe this campaign was particularly good at training people.
Because he didn't have to watch one person's face, but the faces of hundreds of millions of voters.
Of course, he looked at their faces in order to get what he wanted from them.
Voters actually didn't have much choice.
Not to mention, if this person was not qualified, they would vote him down.
The election was not that simple.
Because under this mechanism, those who could be elected were always Nobles, or the spokespersons of Nobles.
Therefore, Xia Chujian didn't believe that Teng Pingmao was a purely Commoner team, nor did she believe that there were no Nobles behind him.
The Zong Family also knew this very well, but the problem was that they couldn't find out who the Noble behind Teng Pingmao was.
and could not find any chinks in his armor or weaknesses.
...
Xia Chujian came out of the bathroom after taking a shower and saw messages from Quan Yuxun and Su Buyan.
After the banquet, they had taken their flying vehicle and left Guiyuan Star directly.
These two were very busy people. Being able to spare three days on remote Guiyuan Star was already a rare "stealing half a day of leisure."
After returning, they would surely have even more work waiting for them.
Xia Chujian was very grateful for their help and company. Of course, she had also paid an equal price.
Therefore, she was particularly calm in front of them.
Su Buyan added her, Huo Yushen, and Quan Yuxun to a small group and recounted some of the small episodes that had occurred at the banquet tonight.
[Su Buyan]: That's all for today. It's clear that those people from abroad are also very interested in the Second Generation Mecha.
[Su Buyan]: Chujian, the fact that you received the Second Generation Mecha is now known throughout the Star Network. Don't be embarrassed. In the future, take out the Shao Siming Black Silver Mecha and use it generously whenever you have the opportunity.
[Su Buyan]: I've already said that your Second Generation Mecha is just a prototype and still has a considerable distance from the finished product. There will be people watching you, but not too many.
Of course, both he and Marshal Huo knew that Xia Chujian had long possessed the Shao Siming Black Silver Mecha, and it was not some so-called "prototype."
Xia Chujian had been concealing the fact that she had a Second Generation Mecha by using the appearance of a Regular Mecha, precisely to avoid attracting too much covetousness.
But Quan Yuxun didn't know this, so Su Buyan didn't mention it.
Moreover, if Xia Chujian hadn't provided him with so much data on the use of the Shao Siming Black Silver Mecha, he wouldn't have been able to finalize the design of the Shao Siming Black Silver Mecha so quickly.
If Xia Chujian hadn't provided him with the Black Silver ore deposits from Senze Star, the Beichen Empire wouldn't have been able to achieve mass mechanical manufacturing of the Shao Siming Black Silver Mecha so quickly.
He was truly grateful to Xia Chujian.
Huo Yushen watched silently, worried that Su Buyan might say something wrong in his excitement, and replied calmly.
[Huo Yushen]: Master Su, you'd better announce the time when the troops will be equipped with the Second Generation Mecha. It can alleviate some of the pressure on Chujian. The Special Security Bureau has indeed discovered that many foreign spies are heading towards Guiyuan Star.
He wasn't worried that Xia Chujian couldn't deal with those petty spies, but he was a little concerned that Xia Chujian might not be able to control herself and cause casualties to ordinary people.
Because those spies consistently liked to use ordinary people as shields.
Quan Yuxun looked at their chat history for a while and began to ask Huo Yushen.
[Quan Yuxun]: Inspector Huo, is your Special Security Bureau just watching those spies come in? Aren't you taking any action?
[Huo Yushen]: Closing the door to beat the dog, and also training soldiers, why not?
[Su Buyan]: Marshal Huo, so you're letting these 'dogs' be Chujian's practice targets?
[Quan Yuxun]: Master Su, remove the question mark at the end. Don't doubt your own judgment.
Huo Yushen did not speak.
Quan Yuxun, remembering Zong Ruoan constantly inquiring about Xia Chujian, intentionally or unintentionally dropped a few words.
[Quan Yuxun]: Chujian, Young Master Zong is also very concerned about you. His confession was actually quite sincere.
[Quan Yuxun]: I know him well. If he wasn't really interested, he wouldn't have allowed his team to operate that way.
[Quan Yuxun]: Are you really not considering him? His character is pure and kind. Although he has some shortcomings in dealing with people, he has great potential for growth with time.
[Quan Yuxun]: Moreover, the Zong Family has a vast influence. If you consider it further, the Zong Family will have dedicated personnel to protect you.
Xia Chujian came out of the bathroom at this moment and happened to see Quan Yuxun typing these words.
She replied without hesitation.
[Xia Chujian]: Young Master Quan, men will only affect my speed of drawing my gun! Don't say such things in the future.
[Xia Chujian]: Young Master Zong is indeed a very good person, so I will help him. However, I think his Campaign Manager is very slippery. Young Master Quan, please keep an eye on him to prevent him from causing any trouble.
Quan Yuxun and Huo Yushen subconsciously stared at Xia Chujian's sentence "men will only affect my speed of drawing my gun" for a long time, not noticing her later words.
Only Su Buyan laughed heartily.
[Su Buyan]: Good! Worthy of being my disciple! I have always believed that women will only affect my speed of breaking through the bottleneck of Mecha technology!
[Su Buyan]: Of course, except for Chujian! In my heart, Chujian is my Mecha inspiration goddess! Not a woman!
Xia Chujian curled her lips and sent a cat crying violently emoticon to protest.
[Xia Chujian]: Master's words have no logic! Women are not necessarily goddesses, but goddesses are definitely women!
[Su Buyan]: Okay, okay, Master misspoke! Anyway, that's what I meant, my disciple definitely understands!
[Su Buyan]: In the future, let's just focus on our work and ignore those wild men outside! And wild women!
[Xia Chujian]: ...
[Quan Yuxun]: Master Su, don't talk nonsense. In the Su Clan, you are the only male in this generation. Do you want to give the position of family head to your sister?
[Su Buyan]: ... You're the only one with a mouth! Technology is so advanced now, there are so many reproductive assistance agencies. Just go to the Egg Bank to find a high-quality egg cell, and you can have offspring through artificial insemination!
Huo Yushen saw that they were getting further and further off topic, and didn't want to waste time with them.
[Huo Yushen]: Master Su, is there anything else? I have a meeting, see you later.
[Su Buyan]: Nothing else, just reminding you that the extent to which the Second Generation Mecha is coveted is probably beyond expectations.
Huo Yushen thought he was talking too much nonsense and directly closed the group chat.
Quan Yuxun also sent a message saying "about to pass through the wormhole" and disconnected.
Only Xia Chujian and Su Buyan were left in the small group.
[Su Buyan]: I've already kicked those two out. Disciple, when they were here just now, I was too embarrassed to say it. Actually, don't be like Master. Master doesn't want to get married in this lifetime, but you...
Xia Chujian didn't wait for him to finish speaking and quit the group without hesitation.
However, as soon as she left the small group that Su Buyan had temporarily created, she saw Huo Yushen's video call invitation coming in.
Xia Chujian: "..."
She hesitated for a moment, but still answered the call, and then looked at Huo Yushen, who had a stern expression on the video, and said in puzzlement, "Marshal Huo, aren't you going to a meeting?"
Huo Yushen's expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly, "Yes, I'm going to have a meeting with you."
