Chapter 79 Designing a Mecha for My Daughter
Liu Qingqing threw down her backpack and ran quickly to the workshop, with Qiqi following closely behind.
The door of the workshop is closed at this moment, and there is a rumbling sound from inside from time to time. It is obvious that the people inside are busy.
Liu Qingqing knocked on the door, and the sound inside stopped abruptly. After a few seconds of silence, someone opened the door from the inside. He walked out and quickly closed the door, obviously not wanting Liu Qingqing to see the scene inside.
Liu Qingqing felt very distressed when she saw the man in front of her frowning. Xi Chen's white shirt was wrinkled, his chin had obvious stubble, his hair was messy, and his eyes were bloodshot.
Xi Chen now looked obviously listless. He forced himself to cheer up, but Liu Qingqing could see the fatigue in his eyes at a glance, it was obvious that he had not rested for a long time.
Liu Qingqing was a little annoyed. Her father was becoming less and less concerned about his health! Moreover, she couldn't keep an eye on him at school, leaving only a robot with no say at home.
Xi Chen was very excited to see his daughter back and wanted to step forward to touch her head. However, he suddenly stumbled and almost fell to the ground. Liu Qingqing quickly stepped forward to support Xi Chen.
Xi Chen felt a little embarrassed as he wanted to say hello but almost fell down. After all, he was Liu Qingqing's father but he almost made a fool of himself in front of his daughter. It really made him look not steady at all.
"My daughter, you're back. Have you eaten yet? Or should I make it for you right now?"
Liu Qingqing stopped Xi Chen and accused him with a heartbroken look:
"Dad, look at how weak you are now. Do you always abuse your body like this whenever I'm not at home?"
Xi Chen's body was gradually restored by her method of injecting small amounts of healing power repeatedly. She risked being discovered to heal the person, but he was unscrupulously destroying his own body. Liu Qingqing felt really wronged.
Xi Chen was about to defend himself when he saw his daughter's eyes quickly covered with mist, and she looked extremely pitiful.
Now, Xi Chen had no more thoughts of quibbling and could only hug his daughter and coax her:
"I'm sorry, it's my fault, it's all Dad's fault. Dad shouldn't have treated me like this. Can you forgive me, Qingqing?"
"Are you going to take a break then?"
"Wait until I get this last part..."
Before Xi Chen finished speaking, he saw Liu Qingqing's lips pouting again, and the mist in her eyes became thicker. It felt like tears were about to fall in the next second, so Xi Chen quickly changed his words:
"Okay, okay, I'll go rest now, okay? Don't cry, okay?"
"Then go and rest now."
"Okay, okay, have you forgiven Dad?"
"Then... I'll reluctantly forgive a little bit. I guess the rest can only be forgiven after Dad has rested well."
What else could Xi Chen say after hearing this? Of course, he would listen to his daughter and go to rest! As for the mecha, they would continue tomorrow.
So Xi Chen repeatedly warned Liu Qingqing not to enter the studio. Liu Qingqing also knew the reason. Xi Chen had been designing a mecha for her in recent years, a high-level mecha.
There was not much Xi Chen could do for Liu Qingqing. Over the years, he had discovered that his daughter was not an ordinary person. His body had also recovered completely without him noticing. Xi Chen vaguely felt that this matter might have something to do with his daughter.
But since his daughter didn't say anything, he pretended not to know. It was normal for his daughter to have some little secrets when she grew up. But he still wanted to do something for Liu Qingqing as a father. After thinking about it, he was a mecha master, so it was natural for him to design a mecha for Liu Qingqing.
After having this idea, Xi Chen told Liu Qingqing about it. As a daughter, Liu Qingqing naturally strongly supported Xi Chen's idea. No matter what her father wanted to do, even if it was to demolish the planet, Liu Qingqing would stand on Xi Chen's side.
Liu Qingqing got all the mecha materials that Xi Chen needed, and she also gave Xi Chen the Chili gold extracted from the energy mine. When Xi Chen received the Chili gold, his eyes widened with disbelief.
His daughter possessed such a large amount of the hard-to-find Fiery Li Gold in the interstellar universe. Did this mean he was already living the life of being supported by his daughter? This was also how he realized his daughter's extraordinary qualities.
However, this also made Xi Chen completely relieved. Since his daughter had obtained so much Chili Gold, it meant that she was doing well in the Metaverse. He was also proud of his daughter. As expected of his daughter, she was amazing!
It took Xi Chen several years to build an advanced mecha, but considering that he was the only one who completed it to the highest standards, this was already considered an extremely fast speed. Now he only had one step left to complete it.
Liu Qingqing was really angry and touched. Alas, what could she do? Her own father did this for her, so what could she do?
Liu Qingqing felt relieved only after seeing Xi Chen fall asleep. The reason why Xi Chen was so anxious to complete the mecha during this period was probably because he felt that he had a chance to leave the garbage planet and go to the Alliance Military Academy.
He was afraid that after arriving in the Central Star Region, he might feel inferior when he saw other students with mechas and he didn't, so he wanted to finish it as soon as possible. He wanted his children to have what others had, and to give them what others didn't have as long as he could.
Although Xichen's age was far below the average for first-time fathers in the interstellar world, it had to be said that Xichen was truly competent. He wanted the best for his daughter, even though she was adopted.
At first, Liu Qingqing was actually very confused as to why Xi Chen accepted her so easily. He agreed to her fraudulent behavior on the first day and even wanted to recognize her as his daughter. Was it just because she looked so pitiful at the time?
Hmm... Liu Qingqing thought carefully about the scene when she first met Xi Chen. It was indeed quite pitiful. According to Xi Chen, he went to pick up trash and saw a little girl lying in the garbage dump with tattered clothes and barely breathing.
Next to them was an endless mountain of garbage. Liu Qingqing was living in the garbage dump with mutant rats. Xi Chen thought she was dead at the time, but she survived.
Liu Qingqing still remembers what Xi Chen told her at that time:
"I didn't want to take you with me, but I saw your eyes, which were full of the desire to survive, so I softened my heart.
I thought that if I hadn't been lucky, I might not have survived on the garbage planet. Seeing you reminded me of my past self. If someone had given me a hand, maybe my life wouldn't have been so difficult at the beginning.
And you're just a child. If I had let you go, you would have died. Your future might have been full of possibilities, but at least you wouldn't have ended up as a corpse on a garbage dump."
"So you chose to adopt me as your daughter and treat me so well?"
"It's probably because you are my daughter, so I will definitely treat you well."
He adopted her as his daughter because he wanted to give her an identity so that she could follow him, and he treated her well only because Liu Qingqing was worthy.
