Lu Wanqing was also somewhat incredulous. She couldn't believe she had actually built a robot.
Lu Wanqing turned the robot on and off, testing it repeatedly. Confirmed that the robot was a success and there were no issues, her mood greatly improved.
Weiwei, standing beside her, had eyes shining, constantly watching the sweeping robot.
In the following days, Lu Wanqing began researching other robots. Weiwei's attitude changed. Previously only interested in playing and not learning, she was now exceptionally interested in robots.
When Lu Wanqing was reading and studying, Weiwei would also read along. Sometimes, if she encountered something she didn't understand, she would even come to ask Lu Wanqing.
Lu Wanqing didn't notice anything amiss at first. When Weiwei came to ask, she naturally explained it to the child.
Most importantly, they had many robots at home. Weiwei not only learned from books and videos, but after watching videos, she would take out the robots at home and, using the tools Lu Wanqing bought, would directly dismantle them with a "ka cha ka cha"!
After some time, Weiwei actually managed to build a small robot. A very tiny one with very simple functions.
But even with simple functions, it was still a robot! Lu Wanqing was shocked!
"Does Weiwei like making robots herself?" Lu Wanqing couldn't help but ask Weiwei.
Weiwei immediately nodded, happily saying, "I do!"
Lu Wanqing smiled, kissed Weiwei, and said, "Since you like it, then Mom will sign you up for an interest class. Weiwei can attend classes in her free time and learn how to make robots professionally and systematically from a teacher, okay?"
Weiwei hesitated upon hearing this. She thought for a moment, then looked at her mother, puzzled, "Can't Mom teach me?"
Lu Wanqing chuckled, "Mom is also a beginner and doesn't understand many things. If possible, Mom would also like to enroll in a robot-making interest class to attend classes properly and learn how to make mechs from a teacher."
Weiwei's eyes widened in shock. "Mom also has to attend classes?"
Lu Wanqing nodded emphatically, "Of course. If you want to learn a skill well, you must attend classes properly!"
"But we can read books and watch videos. Look, Mom made a robot, and I made a small robot. We're both amazing!" Weiwei said seriously.
"But we've only made the simplest robots. There are many very complex robots. If we enroll in an interest class and learn diligently from the teacher, we will learn many things we didn't know before," Lu Wanqing said.
Weiwei was conflicted. After a long moment, she asked, "Then can we enroll in a class?"
Lu Wanqing also fell silent upon hearing this. However, after a moment, she smiled and agreed, "Of course."
If Weiwei truly had talent in robot design, then nurturing that talent might just lead her to become a robot master in the future. After all, in the interstellar era, robots were considered mainstream.
"Okay, then I want to enroll in the same class as Mom. We'll learn mech-making together," Weiwei said seriously after a brief contemplation.
Lu Wanqing raised her hand and high-fived Weiwei, thus sealing their agreement.
Weiwei's interest was successfully sparked, and she began researching robots. Days passed quickly as she focused on her studies. In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. The student exchange program between the Federation and the Empire was finally finalized. Harvey and Cuicui would come to the Federal Imperial Capital Middle School as exchange students.
Knowing that everything was settled and Harvey and Cuicui were finally coming, Lu Wanqing was also incredibly excited. On the first day, she prepared a large table full of delicious food to welcome them.
Not only Harvey and Cuicui, but also Lanlan, Xiaoyi, and Shushu came. Everyone gathered together, which was incredibly joyful.
In the evening, the children did not leave. They all slept together in Lu Wanqing's small house.
Although called a small house, houses in the interstellar era were generally not small. With several floors, it was enough for five children to have their own rooms, with even some left over.
After dinner, Lu Wanqing urged the children to take baths and go to sleep. Finally, she took Weiwei back to her own room; it was time for them to rest too.
However, after taking a bath, Weiwei slipped away. She went to find her sister Shushu and sister Cuicui. Weiwei hadn't seen her sister Cuicui for over a month and missed her.
Lu Wanqing knew Weiwei had gone to find Shushu and Cuicui, so she wasn't in a hurry. She instructed Shushu and Cuicui to take good care of Weiwei for a while, then let the children play by themselves. She also returned to her room to sleep.
But Lu Wanqing did not sleep soundly. In a daze, she dreamed. She seemed to have dreamed of the Zerg Queen.
The Zerg Queen did not appear in human form but as a giant python, a colossal serpent that opened its gaping maw and chased after Lu Wanqing.
Lu Wanqing's face changed drastically. Terrified, she turned and fled.
As she ran, Lu Wanqing suddenly woke up and saw a giant snake head in front of her!
Lu Wanqing, lacking any composure, her vision went black, and she fainted.
But it only lasted for a second. The next moment, Lu Wanqing turned around, scrambled up, grabbed the Zerg Queen's head, and forcefully pressed it into the quilt!
How could the Zerg Queen be defeated by this woman? It was just that, damn it, this woman was his lover. He couldn't harm her, otherwise, Lu Yang would go mad!
"You... stop!" the snake head spoke human words, with some difficulty.
"What do you want?" Lu Wanqing questioned.
"I have something to discuss with you," the Zerg Queen's clear, resonant voice said.
Lu Wanqing was dumbfounded. She looked with suspicion at the giant python she was holding, no, hugging by its seven inches.
Everyone said to strike a snake at its seven inches, but the Zerg Queen's physical body was so powerful. Even if Lu Wanqing used all her strength, she probably couldn't injure its seven inches.
"...What is it?" Lu Wanqing's rationality slowly returned as she asked cautiously.
"The Zerg wishes to negotiate with humans. From now on, we will stay in our respective territories, with no interference and no invasion!" The giant python transformed back into human form. The Zerg Queen looked down at Lu Wanqing with cold, indifferent eyes and said.
Lu Wanqing suddenly thought of what happened on the Abyss Star. She was displeased, "Why? She Wanwan... is your name She Wanwan, right?"
"You were the one who infiltrated the Abyss Star last time, weren't you? State your purpose first, and then I'll consider negotiations." Lu Wanqing said, looking into She Wanwan's eyes.
She Wanwan looked at Lu Wanqing.
Lu Wanqing said expressionlessly, "Don't lie to me and say it wasn't you that day."
She was the first to discover She Wanwan on the Abyss Star. Lu Wanqing was certain she hadn't mistaken her. Everyone said snakes were cunning, and it seemed the old sayings were true. Negotiating with She Wanwan required extreme caution.
