Chapter 69 The one who saved you was not me

The company.

Mu Sijie brought Lu Wanqing to the laboratory and allowed her to use the tools and materials freely, then left the space entirely to Lu Wanqing and returned to his office alone.

As soon as he entered the office, the optical computer terminal vibrated slightly, a notification of a new message.

Mu Sijie lowered his gaze and opened the optical computer terminal. The first message that caught his eye was a pop-up notification. It was a simple sentence, but the last few words attracted his attention.

3s mech!

Mu Sijie frowned, staring at those words, and then looked at the name in front of them, Lu Yuanyuan!

He had no previous interaction with Lu Yuanyuan. How could she have his private optical computer contact information?

However, it was only for a moment. Mu Sijie quickly figured it out. Lu Yuanyuan was good friends with Si Rui, so perhaps Si Rui had given it to her before.

"What do you want?" Mu Sijie thought, replying to the message and questioning her.

In the hovercar, Lu Yuanyuan saw Mu Sijie's reply. It was entirely within her expectations. She thought of Lu Wanqing, a cold smile tugged at her lips, and she continued to send a message: "Guluan Star Cafe, I'll wait for you there."

Lu Yuanyuan sent the address and then directly ordered the hovercar to start, heading straight for the Guluan Star Cafe.

At the company, Mu Sijie stared at the message. Three minutes later, he stood up, his face cold, and walked out.

*

Fifteen minutes later, Guluan Star Cafe.

Mu Sijie sat opposite Lu Yuanyuan and said coldly, "What do you want to say?"

"The Liang family also has 3s-class mechs," Lu Yuanyuan said concisely, getting straight to the point.

Mu Sijie's eyes narrowed instantly, and he asked coldly, "Where did you get it from?"

The Liang family absolutely did not have that capability. If they did, they wouldn't have been suppressed by the Mu family and unable to rise before. Everything changed after the Lu family and the Liang family joined forces. In just a few days, the Liang family not only publicly listed s-class mechs but might even have 3s-class mechs. Something was very wrong.

As for the Lu family...

The Lu family had never been involved in the mech industry before. They didn't understand mechs at all, and it was impossible for them to design s-class mechs, let alone 3s-class mechs.

"Don't worry about where we got it from. As long as we want to, the Liang family can have complete 3s-class mechs at any time," Lu Yuanyuan said defiantly.

Mu Sijie remained silent. His probing gaze fixed on Lu Yuanyuan, trying to find the answer from her, but there was none.

Lu Yuanyuan was also nervous. She liked Brother Sijie. Even now, she still liked him. If possible...

Sitting face-to-face with Brother Sijie, Lu Yuanyuan's heart beat fast, and she became even more nervous. Thinking about what she was about to say, she couldn't help but feel excited.

Lu Yuanyuan lowered her head and took a sip of coffee, then looked up at Mu Sijie and said, "Brother Sijie, I really like you. As long as you are willing to be with me and form an alliance with the Lu family, I can guarantee that the manufacturing method of 3s-class mechs will absolutely not fall into the hands of the Liang family."

Mu Sijie's eyes instantly became sharp. He stared at Lu Yuanyuan, "The manufacturing method of 3s-class mechs, is it from the Lu family?"

Impossible, the Lu family couldn't possibly have it. They had never made mechs before, so how could they possess the method for manufacturing mechs? Especially the manufacturing method of 3s-class mechs.

Mu Sijie pondered, then suddenly thought of the neighboring empire. In terms of mech manufacturing, no one in the entire federation was more skilled than the Mu family. The Mu family had never publicly disclosed information about the manufacturing of 3s-class mechs before, and it was impossible for outsiders to know. What the Lu family was presenting, unless it came from the neighboring empire.

"Does the Lu family have dealings with the empire?" Mu Sijie thought, and suddenly spoke.

Lu Yuanyuan's expression changed, and a sense of panic arose instinctively. However, it was only for a moment. She quickly calmed herself down and stared at Mu Sijie, "Brother Sijie, regardless of where our family's method comes from, I can assure you that it is definitely the manufacturing method for 3s-class mechs."

As Lu Yuanyuan spoke, she looked at Mu Sijie and suddenly became anxious, "Brother Sijie, you want it too, right? That's the manufacturing method for 3s-class mechs, a very complete manufacturing method for 3s-class mechs. As long as you get it, the Mu family's mech manufacturing will reach a new level!"

Lu Yuanyuan stood up, walked to Mu Sijie's side, grabbed his hand, and said anxiously, "Brother Sijie, will you be with me? As long as you marry me, and be with me, and form an alliance with the Lu family, all of this can be yours, everything you want, all of it can be given to you!"

"And not only that, the Lu family also has money, we have a lot, a lot of money. As long as the Mu family and the Lu family form an alliance, the Lu family will fully support the Mu family in the future, and the Mu family will definitely develop better than before!"

Mu Sijie frowned and tore Lu Yuanyuan's hand away, taking a step back and saying coldly, "Miss Lu, please have some self-respect!"

Lu Yuanyuan was pushed away. She was stunned, looking up at Mu Sijie, her mind blank.

Mu Sijie stared at her, his brows deeply furrowed. He was silent for a long time, and finally said, "Miss Lu, your status is also not ordinary. There's no need for you to be set on being with me."

"But I just like you!" Lu Yuanyuan became anxious, staring at him with red eyes.

Lu Yuanyuan suddenly took two steps forward, reaching out to grab Mu Sijie's hand. Mu Sijie frowned and avoided her.

"Brother Sijie, don't you remember? You saved me when I was little," Lu Yuanyuan said, tears falling down her face, feeling sad and wronged.

"I saved you?" Mu Sijie asked, confused, even more bewildered.

Lu Yuanyuan nodded quickly. She looked at Mu Sijie, her eyes moist, "Yes, when I was four years old, at a banquet, they pushed me into the pond. You jumped in without hesitation and saved me."

Mu Sijie was stunned. After a moment, he suddenly remembered something from many years ago. Yes, there was indeed such an incident. When he was very young, he attended a banquet and saw a girl being bullied by others and pushed into a pond. His playmate had jumped in without hesitation and rescued the little girl.

"Mmm," Mu Sijie thought and nodded slightly.

Lu Yuanyuan finally spoke the words that had been buried in her heart for many years. Seeing him nod, her tears lost control, falling in large drops, "Brother Sijie, I like you, I really like you."

"But the person who saved you back then wasn't me," Mu Sijie suddenly said.

What?

Lu Yuanyuan was stunned. Her eyes were still filled with tears, and she looked at Mu Sijie blankly.

Mu Sijie looked at Lu Yuanyuan and said earnestly, "The person who actually jumped into the water and saved you back then was a playmate hired by the Mu family to play with me. I only lent a hand from the shore. If you are grateful for this matter, I can have someone help you find him."

"Although many years have passed, the Mu family always keeps records of the people they hire. It shouldn't be difficult to find him."
