Chapter 2-02 - The test didn't miss any subtle changes in her expression...
A sudden pang of emotion welled up in Lin Xi's nose, and she was momentarily at a loss for how to face this unexpected reunion.
But Fu Qingli remained calm and composed, withdrawing her gaze as indifferently as if she had just made eye contact with a stranger.
After getting rid of the troublesome person, Zhao Mingyuan turned around and saw Lin Xi staring blankly at her boss. He assumed that she had also developed feelings for him.
He was anxious, worried that Fu Qingli would show impatience and make the situation awkward, so he quickly coughed twice to bring Lin Xi back to her senses and introduced the two: "Team Leader Lin, this is our company's boss, Fu Qingli, President Fu."
"Boss, this is Lin Xi, the deputy leader of Songjia Design Group 2, who is in charge of designing our exhibition area."
"Hello." Fu Qingli nodded and reached out her hand to Lin Xi, who was squatting down.
Lin Xi didn't react for a moment and subconsciously put her hand into his palm.
The moment she felt the warmth of his palm, she suddenly realized that he was just shaking her hand politely, not trying to help her up.
Fortunately, Fu Qingli didn't give her a chance to feel awkward. He tightened his fingers, which had distinct knuckles, and held her hand in his palm.
With a gentle pull, he steadily lifted her up from the ground.
Once he was sure she was steady, he released her hand, landed back beside her, and asked with an unchanged expression, "What does Team Leader Lin think of Gun Gun? Do you like him?"
It was entirely in a businesslike tone, like when conducting a customer experience survey.
Zhao Mingyuan was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped. He had met someone that Gun Gun was willing to get close to. His boss, who always hated physical contact with people, was suddenly so willing to go all out?
He even personally pulled people up?!
Looking at Gun Gun again, upon hearing Fu Qingli's question, the round little dog kept rubbing its body against Lin Xi's feet, its glasses sparkling, just like a little dog wagging its tail and sticking out its tongue, begging for its owner's praise. It had lost all of its former aloofness!
Sure enough, children resemble their parents!
Lin Xi has always loved giant pandas and is completely powerless against such a vivid portrayal of affection.
Unable to resist her heartfelt love, she sincerely praised, "I love it, the panda is so cute!"
Before she could finish speaking, Gun Gun raised his short "hands" and hugged her, becoming a leg accessory: "Gun Gun likes Xiao Xi too~"
Fu Qingli gave a barely perceptible smile: "That's good."
Before he could figure out where to start, he changed the subject, "There are some parts of the design that I don't understand. Could you please accompany me to the site to take a look?"
When it comes to work, Lin Xi, who had been looking for an opportunity to slip away, couldn't refuse and could only quickly adjust her mindset and get into work mode.

Back at the exhibition area, the staff from Qingyuan had already installed the machines.
Five humanoid robots, each 1.2 meters tall, stood in a row. Their exteriors were covered in a soft material, and the warm colors of Morandi made them look as soft as cushions, no longer the cold, impersonal machines of everyday life.
Fu Qingli casually turned on one of the tablets, winked at Zhao Mingyuan, and handed it over: "Let's test it."
Zhao Mingyuan was initially puzzled, wondering what problems could there be with a design plan personally overseen by the boss.
At that moment, I received his gaze, and suddenly I felt a surge of joy and gratitude.
Turning around, he introduced to Lin Xi with a big smile: "As you know, our main product to be showcased this time is the L1 companion robot."
His smile was so enthusiastic that Lin Xi was a little confused, but she still nodded in agreement.
"L1 is a robot designed specifically for people with mental illnesses. As you know, young people today face a lot of psychological pressure, and the number of people with mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety is increasing every day. These people often avoid social interaction, close themselves off, and are unable to effectively release their negative emotions."
Lin Xi nodded in agreement.
Zhao Mingyuan became increasingly enthusiastic as he introduced the product, placing his hand on L1's round head. "This L1 can quickly identify users' emotional fluctuations, provide professional emotional comfort, and promptly alleviate users' negative emotions. In the event of sudden extreme emotions, it can also quickly identify crises and activate preset emergency procedures."
For example, right now, L1's anthropomorphic eyes are looking at Zhao Mingyuan, and a calm, mechanical voice sounds: "Real-time heart rate 100, skin conductance response enhanced, respiratory rate increased, stress value 20. The user's mental state is healthy, and the index changes are due to temporary emotional excitement."
"Wow!" Lin Xi exclaimed in surprise, "You can recognize it just by touching it!"
She checked and didn't see any specific connection device.
Zhao Mingyuan nodded, then took out a wristwatch from L1's side pocket: "Yes, the skin on L1's surface can be used as a sensor. Of course, there are also traditional wearable detection devices, which provide more timely and accurate data. Team Leader Lin, why don't you try it on and help us test it too? We're the only ones doing the testing each time, so it's hard to find any problems."
As he spoke, he handed the wristwatch to Lin Xi.
"Oh right, I'll switch the data to privacy mode and send it to your phone in real time. The system won't keep any records. If there's anything inaccurate, just let me know what happened."
Lin Xi: "..."
Shouldn't this kind of test involve specific, professional data comparisons?
He spoke so casually, it always felt like he was being unreliable.
Lin Xi's gaze involuntarily drifted to Fu Qingli beside her. She saw him sitting casually in a chair, his long legs stretched out lazily, looking at his phone screen with a bored expression, completely ignoring their test.
It was developed by Fu Qingli, so there's definitely nothing wrong with it.
Moreover, Zhao Mingyuan also said that only she could see the test data and it would not be kept on file.
He won't see it either.
Give it a try, consider it supporting his career.
Thinking of this, Lin Xi took the watch and put it next to the bracelet she already had.
Zhao Mingyuan quickly operated on the tablet screen, and L1's big eyes blinked.
Within two minutes, Lin Xi received a message on her phone.
[Hello, your real-time heart rate is 120, stress level is 87, breathing rate is irregular, and muscle tension is increased. You are currently in a state of high stress, prone to low mood, or have been in a state of depression for a long time. Your current condition is relatively mild, but you still need to seek professional medical help promptly. If you are already taking medication, please follow your doctor's instructions and practice mindfulness exercises. —Qingyuan Technology]
Fu Qingli, who was standing to the side, put away her phone and stared intently at Lin Xi's face, not missing any subtle changes in her expression.
Seeing that she had finished reading the message and turned off her phone, he quickly lowered his eyes and asked casually, "What was the result?"
Lin Xi answered instinctively, "It's fine!"
After saying that, realizing that he wasn't asking about her mental state but rather the comparison results of the test, she hurriedly added guiltily, "The monitoring results are quite accurate and match the actual situation!"
She didn't notice that L1 blinked while she was speaking.
The screen of Fu Qingli's phone lit up, indicating that a new system message had been received.
