Zhong Li Feiyu stopped and gazed down at her.
Lu Wanqing's heart suddenly raced, and she felt nervous.
Zhong Li Feiyu pondered for a moment, then asked, "Why?"
"Is there something lacking in me?" Zhong Li Feiyu asked.
Lu Wanqing shook her head. "No."
"I just don't want to get married yet," Lu Wanqing said.
Zhong Li Feiyu frowned. "Is that the same reason you refused Mu Jie?"
Lu Wanqing: "???"
Lu Wanqing was very confused. Fortunately, Zhong Li Feiyu didn't press further, and they soon arrived at the training grounds.
Zhong Li Feiyu ran with the little Zhong Li Yi, and Lu Wanqing also joined them for the morning run.
Although Lu Wanqing was a laid-back person who disliked exercise, she knew that morning training was very beneficial for the body. Since she was here, she naturally had to join and train properly.
The morning training session wasn't too long, about half an hour, and then they could return.
Lu Wanqing hoped that Song Yan would have left by the time she returned home, but she hadn't. Lu Wanqing felt a complex mix of emotions.
However, it was just that. People were different. If Song Yan was unwilling to give up, there was nothing she could do. Most importantly, her relationship with Zhong Li Feiyu wasn't that kind of relationship, so she couldn't control it much.
Once Lu Wanqing thought it through, she stopped worrying about Song Yan. As long as the other party didn't cause trouble for her and Xiao Yi, it had nothing to do with her.
After the family had breakfast together, Marshal Zhong Li went to the military headquarters for work. Lu Wanqing and Zhong Li Feiyu took Xiao Yi to kindergarten. Back home, Lu Wanqing received a call from Mu Jie.
Mu Jie had already reviewed the mech design blueprints she had sent him yesterday. He mentioned there were some issues with the details and suggested they meet to discuss them.
Lu Wanqing had nothing else to do during the day, so she hailed a hovercar and went directly to Mu Corporation.
It wasn't too far to Mu Corporation, but it wasn't close either. A one-way trip would take over forty minutes. Lu Wanqing calculated the time, and it was a bit tight, as she had to return at noon. Xiao Yi would come home for lunch. Kindergartens in the military family district were different from those outside.
After Lu Wanqing arrived, she quickly entered the laboratory and discussed the mech design issues with Mu Jie.
It was worth mentioning that Mu Jie had already tested the mech she had made for Lan Lan earlier. It was excellent, with virtually no problems. He had already handed it over to Lan Lan, who liked it very much.
After resolving the blueprint issues, the remaining tasks were production: polishing parts and assembling the mechs. These things required Lu Wanqing's patience and perseverance, but she didn't feel it was arduous since it was for the children.
Lu Wanqing's life became busy. She commuted daily between the Zhong Li residence and Mu Corporation. When Xiao Yi finished school, he would return to the Zhong Li residence. Once the little Zhong Li Yi went to school, she would take a hovercar to Mu Corporation and immerse herself in creation in the laboratory.
Having already succeeded with two super 3S mechs, her operations became smoother, and the same tasks seemed less difficult than before. Her speed also increased significantly.
In just one month, she had completed all the parts for the mechs designed for Xiao Cuicui and Xiao Yi, leaving only the assembly.
Mu Jie was also shocked and came to help with the assembly. They spent a week assembling both mechs.
Once the mechs were completed, the next step was testing. Mu Jie couldn't wait to send the two small mechs to the testing platform.
"Should be no problem, right?" Lu Wanqing asked nervously in front of the testing equipment.
Mu Jie looked down at Lu Wanqing, his eyes filled with a deep affection he hadn't realized: "It will definitely be fine. The design blueprints for these two mechs are excellent, and the parts polishing is also very good."
"Mm," Lu Wanqing nodded.
Despite saying that, she couldn't completely relax, especially for the little phoenix customized for Xiao Cuicui.
The phoenix was different from other mechs. She had incorporated a flight program from the interstellar era into its power system, making it extremely fast. Its primary weapons were long-range attacks, but consequently, the phoenix's defensive capabilities were much weaker compared to other mechs.
To put it simply, most mechs popular in the interstellar era were akin to warriors in ancient Earth mobile games, with decent attack and defense. But the phoenix was a "glass cannon" mage—very fragile, but incredibly fast and agile, with extremely high damage. If piloted skillfully, it could shred enemies while remaining untouched.
"The results are out!"
"It's a super 3S mech! Both small mechs are super 3S mechs!!!"
While Lu Wanqing was lost in thought, the test results came out. The technicians, looking at the reports, turned back and excitedly told Lu Wanqing and Mu Jie.
Lu Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief and a smile involuntarily spread across her face. It was a success!
Mu Jie's heart pounded uncontrollably. Two more super 3S mechs. How high was Wanqing's talent?
"Wanqing..." Mu Jie thought, then looked down at Lu Wanqing. He had so much he wanted to say, but all the words caught in his throat, and he couldn't utter a single one.
Mu Jie also felt that there was no need for explanations; all words failed to describe Wanqing's excellence.
"Wanqing, let's test them and see how these two mechs perform in actual combat," Mu Jie said excitedly to Lu Wanqing.
Lu Wanqing nodded. "Yes!"
Following the previous experience with the little Baize mech designed for Lan Lan, Mu Corporation had now developed a complete set of small mech testing robots. The first stage of testing involved sending small testing robots into the mechs to assess their performance, followed by actual testing by personnel.
As soon as Lu Wanqing agreed, she quickly remembered that it was getting late, and she had to return to the Zhong Li residence. Xiao Yi would be dismissed from school soon.
"Perhaps we can test them tomorrow? Kindergarten is about to finish," Lu Wanqing suggested.
Mu Jie was taken aback by her words and his mind cleared. It was indeed getting late. He was so overjoyed by the simultaneous completion of two super 3S mechs that he had lost track of time.
"Okay, then we'll test them tomorrow!" Zhong Li Feiyu said happily.
Lu Wanqing smiled and said, "Tomorrow is Saturday, I can bring Xiao Yi along."
"Alright," Mu Jie nodded.
During this period, whenever it was the weekend, Lu Wanqing would bring Xiao Yi to the company. While she worked hard on the mechs, Xiao Yi would play by himself. Everyone was accustomed to it.
Lu Wanqing smiled, put the two mechs into her spatial storage, and was about to leave.
"Wanqing," Mu Jie suddenly called out to her.
Lu Wanqing paused and turned to look at Mu Jie. "Is there something else?"
Mu Jie hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Have you considered releasing these small mechs you designed for the children onto the market?"
"On the market?" Lu Wanqing was surprised.
Mu Jie nodded. "Yes, these mechs are all very good. It's a bit of a waste if they're only for a few children to play with."
Mu Jie was certain that if this set of small mechs were released, they would create a sensation throughout the interstellar, beloved by all children.
