"Of course there is," Steward Mu said with a smile.
Steward Mu took out the menu and handed it to Lu Wanqing.
Lu Wanqing's eyes were dazzled as she took the menu. In the end, she chose two meat dishes and one vegetable dish, and handed them to Steward Mu.
Steward Mu smiled and said, "Please wait a moment. The domestic robot will be ready soon."
"Okay, thank you, I appreciate your hard work," Lu Wanqing expressed her gratitude.
Steward Mu smiled, took the menu, and turned to leave.
With the cooking tasks handed over to the domestic robot, Lu Wanqing didn't have to do anything herself. She had some free time and couldn't help but go to the Mu family's courtyard to explore.
There was a courtyard at the entrance of the Mu residence, with some green plants. In the center of the flower bed, several mechs stood tall.
During this rare moment of tranquility, with no one to disturb her, Lu Wanqing unknowingly toured the place. When she returned, it was still quite early.
"Ms. Lu, if you feel tired, you can rest on the sofa," Steward Mu seemed to sense her fatigue and reminded her in a gentle voice.
Lu Wanqing paused for a moment. Thinking that there was no one else at home for the time being, she nodded, "Okay."
She was indeed a little tired. She had been studying for the entire morning and had been highly focused without taking any breaks.
Lu Wanqing took a short nap on the sofa and was then awakened. Steward Mu looked at her and gently reminded her, "Ms. Lu, lunch is ready. It should taste better while it's hot."
Lu Wanqing quickly got up and turned to thank him, "Thank you."
Steward Mu replied with a smile, "You're welcome."
Lu Wanqing hurried to the dining room. The domestic robot had indeed already placed all the lunch dishes on the dining table. In the large dining room, there was only her now. Lu Wanqing felt less restrained. Holding her rice bowl, she immediately started eating.
She finished lunch quickly and then returned to the second floor. Thinking about the cockpit that Mu Sijie had modified for her, she impatiently logged into the Star Network and began to study it.
For Mu Sijie, it might have been a matter of a few seconds to make the changes. Lu Wanqing studied for an entire afternoon before she understood the advantages of Mu Sijie's adjustments. Once she understood, she had a sudden realization and gained a more concrete appreciation for Mu Sijie's capabilities. He was truly a master; with just a flick of his fingers, he was so accomplished!

Imperial Capital University.
The day's classes finally ended. The teacher left after class, and the students began packing up their belongings, preparing to head home.
Mu Sirui packed her textbooks into her schoolbag. She slung her bag over her shoulder and turned to leave for home.
"Rui Rui!" Lu Yuanyuan suddenly rushed over and grabbed Mu Sirui's arm.
Seeing Lu Yuanyuan, Mu Sirui's heart skipped a beat, and she felt an inexplicable sense of unease. "Yuanyuan, do you... need something?"
Lu Yuanyuan looked at Mu Sirui and nervously asked, "Rui Rui, how has Lu Wanqing... how has Lu Wanqing been at your place these past few days?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Sirui became somewhat conflicted. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "Yuanyuan, actually, I don't think Lu Wanqing is a zombie."
Lu Yuanyuan's expression stiffened slightly. She pursed her lips and said, "That's not what I'm asking. I mean... how are her relationships with your family these past few days?"
Lu Yuanyuan didn't want to see Lu Wanqing getting along harmoniously with the Mu family. If that were the case, wouldn't it increase the probability of Lu Wanqing marrying Sijie Ge?
Mu Sirui's brow furrowed. She remained silent for a long time before finally looking up at Lu Yuanyuan and asking, "Yuanyuan, didn't you say you wanted to confess to my brother? How have you prepared?"
As she spoke, Mu Sirui couldn't help but earnestly explain, "Actually, I think if you really like my brother, it's best to just tell him directly. If my brother likes you too, he will definitely agree."
Lu Yuanyuan certainly knew that if Sijie Ge liked her, he would agree if she confessed. But the problem was, did Sijie Ge really like her?
She suddenly recalled that day at the Mu residence, how Sijie Ge had protected Lu Wanqing so fiercely, and even reprimanded her with a cold expression, warning her that if she lingered, he would call the Lu family to pick her up. With that attitude, how could Sijie Ge possibly like her?
"Rui Rui, Sijie Ge and I had a misunderstanding. You know that day... I was too angry, so I lost control of my temper and left a bad impression on your brother. He might not like me now," Lu Yuanyuan said, her voice filled with grievance.
"It's all Lu Wanqing's fault. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have performed so poorly at your place. Now, not only Sijie Ge, but even your parents and grandparents have a bad impression of me," Lu Yuanyuan became more and more annoyed, and more and more hateful. It was all Lu Wanqing's fault. If Lu Wanqing hadn't suddenly appeared, these problems wouldn't have arisen.
Mu Sirui also felt that way and said with difficulty, "Then what should we do?"
Lu Yuanyuan thought for a moment, then took Mu Sirui's hand and asked anxiously, "Rui Rui, can you help me again? Does your brother have any favorite things? Or what kind of girls does your brother like? Tell me, and I'll try my best. Maybe your brother will forget the previous bad impression and like me again!"
"Ah?" Mu Sirui was shocked.
Lu Yuanyuan shook Mu Sirui's hand and pleaded, "Rui Rui, please help me, okay? We've been good friends for so many years. You know my character, right? I truly like your brother, and I'm not a bad person."
Lu Yuanyuan looked at Mu Sirui and continued to persuade her, "Besides, my father is the richest man. If I marry your brother, my family will fully support your family. Then the Mu family will become even more powerful than before, won't it?"
Mu Sirui looked at Lu Yuanyuan, still conflicted.
"Rui Rui, please help me, okay?" Lu Yuanyuan pleaded again.
Mu Sirui couldn't resist Lu Yuanyuan's pleading. After a long hesitation, she finally nodded and agreed, "Okay, fine."
Lu Yuanyuan's eyes lit up, and she immediately became happy. She hugged Mu Sirui and spun her around in delight, "Thank you, I knew you were the best, thank you Rui Rui!"
Mu Sirui also smiled happily. During these years of university, Yuanyuan had been her best friend. Whenever she encountered trouble, Yuanyuan was always the first to appear and protect her.
"Yuanyuan, if we're talking about preferences, I think my eldest brother probably likes building mechs the most," Mu Sirui thought, then said seriously to Lu Yuanyuan.
Lu Yuanyuan was shocked, "Mech manufacturing?"
Mu Sirui nodded, "Yes! My brother loves building mechs the most. Since he was very young, he was either in the lab researching how to build mechs or in the company's studio creating mechs. When he's building mechs, he's happiest."
"But I don't know how to build mechs," Lu Yuanyuan said, conflicted.
Mu Sirui hesitated for a moment, then said, "Yuanyuan, I heard from people in the company that my eldest brother took Lu Wanqing to the company a few days ago, and Lu Wanqing signed a contract with the company."
"Signed a contract?"
"Signed what contract?"
Lu Yuanyuan's expression suddenly turned grim. She pressed on, her tone laced with uncontrollable animosity.
Why was this Lu Wanqing so persistent?
It was one thing for her to go to the Mu family to take care of a child, but how did she end up in the Mu family's company?
She was clearly trying to seduce Sijie Ge!
