Chapter 57 Resentment

Xia Chan took Liu Qingqing's hand and led her out of the mecha area. The other seven people were waiting for them outside.

They had discussed it before coming and decided that it would be too much of a mobilization for all ten of them to come and pick up Liu Qingqing, so they let the three of them go in first to pick up Liu Qingqing.

As soon as Liu Qingqing went out, she saw seven people standing at the gate. Young Master An waved to them and led them to the side, so the 11 people walked towards the teahouse next door together.

Although this place is called a teahouse, not many people actually drink tea here. After all, tea is very difficult to drink in the interstellar world and most people can't drink it, so most of the best-selling items here are fruit juices.

The group sat in the teahouse drinking juice, and Liu Qingqing really felt that they were selling dog meat under the guise of mutton.

Then Young Master An introduced the people in front of him to Liu Qingqing one by one:

"This is Fuso."

“This is a stone.”

“…”

After everyone was introduced, the last person to be introduced was the boy with glasses and freckles:

"He's a member we recruited from the leaderboard, his name is Chenmu. It just so happens that you're on the list and he's off, but we're all friends, so there's no need to worry about whether he should quit or not."

Liu Qingqing nodded and formally introduced herself to them:

"Hello everyone, I am Qingchen."

Everyone applauded to express their warm welcome to Liu Qingqing. Liu Qingqing smiled at them implicitly, trying her best to maintain her image as a weak and innocent girl.

I have to say, this identity is quite useful.

This group of people kept chatting about family matters in the teahouse, and the topic gradually went off topic. Liu Qingqing just listened to their gossip.

"Bah! That Xi family young master calls himself the alliance's top mecha designer, acting like he's worth a fortune all day long. He even compares himself to Marshal Feng Ze. He really doesn't know his place!"

"Exactly. He has the nerve to be compared to Marshal Feng Ze with his appearance. Really..."

"Alas, there's nothing we can do. He doesn't know what's going on, but anyone who provokes him will end up with nothing good. All we can do is support him..."

"Really... just because he's a mecha pilot, we playboys have to flatter him. I really don't know what the old men in the family were thinking, asking us to flatter him. Really..."

"But he seems to be enjoying it..."

"That's right, I just like the feeling of being praised by others——"

"Actually, he's a joke..."

Liu Qingqing felt a deep resentment in their words, but this Xi family master...

"What's the name of the young master of the Xi family you're talking about?"

When everyone saw Liu Qingqing asking, they were all willing to answer her, but in the end, Young Master An took the lead:

"The young master of the Xi family is from a middle-class aristocratic family on the Imperial Capital Planet. Although they are a middle-class family, they have produced Xi Liuqing in this lifetime. With his mecha manufacturing skills, he has successfully won the hearts of a group of people. In recent years, their family status has also risen sharply."

"Not only that, he's even comparing himself to Marshal Feng Ze, thinking that even Marshal Feng Ze can't beat him and that he's the most powerful person in the world. I really don't know where he gets his confidence from!"

"It's all because of his amazing mecha manufacturing skills. Seriously, the mechas he designs all seem pretty impressive. It's a shame he's so talented, but his character is terrible!!!"

"Besides, I'm not the real son of the Xi family. I'm like a sparrow flying to a tree, but I really think I'm a phoenix. Aren't I just a fake?"

"But even if he's a fake, we're all rooting for him based on his skills in making mobile armor. What can you do?"

“Oh, really!!”

Listening to their discussion, Liu Qingqing clenched the cup in her hand. This young master of the Xi family must be the thief who stole his father's identity.

Liu Qingqing couldn't help but snort coldly. It seemed that the thief had lived quite well after stealing her father's identity, with so many families sending their own young people to flatter him. It also seemed that they all knew that this Xi family young master was a fake, but they didn't expose him because of his mecha skills.

She shook the juice in her hand, narrowed her eyes and smiled like a little fox, but the information she got from her father was not like this. How outstanding could someone be if she even needed her father's help for her graduation project and homework?

Therefore, Liu Qingqing roughly connected the whole story in her mind. It was just a story about a thief who stole her father's identity and reached the top with the manuscript left by her father.

But in fact, Liu Qingqing was very curious about how Xi Liuqing would maintain this honor after her father's manuscripts were used up?

It will definitely be a very interesting situation then!

Thinking of this, Liu Qingqing couldn't help laughing again. Others looked at Liu Qingqing's smile and were a little puzzled:

"What are you laughing at, morning?"

Liu Qingqing came back to her senses with a cry, then narrowed her eyes and smiled like a little mouse stealing oil.

"I just think the young master you're talking about is quite funny. It's really rare for a fake to have such confidence."

“It’s really quite unusual.”

Young Master An drank some juice in frustration. However, it was this extremely confident guy that forced him to praise him. Last time at the auction, he had no choice but to say that Marshal Feng Ze was not as good as him.

Now I feel like vomiting no matter how I think about it.

Disgusting guy.

As soon as this person was mentioned, the atmosphere in the small group of nine people became heavy. In order to establish a relationship with the mecha master, their family members ordered them to praise Xi Liuqing even if it meant enduring disgust.

Especially now they can only move forward and cannot retreat. If they don't support him, that guy is a vengeful person and will definitely use some dirty tricks to make them end up in a bad situation.

They are all playboys in their families. To put it bluntly, they are the kind of people who would just give some benefits to get away with disappearing. They know that they are of no use to the family.

Perhaps even if they don't have a good ending in the end, as long as Xi Liuqing agrees to customize mechas for their families, their respective families may go over happily and continue to praise Xi Liuqing to the sky.

They all know it.

Liu Qingqing also noticed the dull atmosphere and didn't know how to start.

After all, they had only known each other for one day, and she didn't know the actual situation of their family, so she really couldn't help.

However, in Liu Qingqing's eyes, it is better to rely on oneself than on others. In this case, no matter how difficult the future is, as long as their own abilities are improved, then those difficulties will not matter, right?

Maybe Liu Qingqing could take them with her for training, at least to get rid of the image of a playboy in their eyes and the image of a loser in the eyes of others!

So Liu Qingqing said:

"How about we train together? I don't know what kind of difficulties you're facing, but as long as you can become strong in the eyes of others, your situation will definitely be better!"
