Interstellar Scientist & Robot Butler (10)
The evening banquet was held as scheduled.
Ye Xi ignored the objections of Mr. and Mrs. Ye and insisted on taking the robot with him.
On the way, Mrs. Ye couldn't help but talk to her husband, "What is Xixi thinking? What does she want to do with a robot?"
You don't need robots to take care of you outside.
What is the purpose of robots?
Mr. Ye remained calm and said, "It's none of your business. We just need to get him and Lan Ying engaged."
After finally coming back, he just wanted his son's marriage to be settled, and nothing else mattered.
Finally they arrived at the banquet venue, which was star-studded and magnificent. The Lan family had spent a lot of money to celebrate their daughter's eighteenth birthday, and the scene was grand and magnificent.
Even reporters from Star TV flocked to the event, wanting to convey the grandeur of tonight to the audience.
Jiang Ye looked at the momentum outside the car window and couldn't help but wonder, Lan Ying was more than just a rich girl.
She's simply a princess.
"Master, you probably don't like crowded occasions, right?" the robot asked considerately.
Ye Xi adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "I don't like it."
But there is no way, I still have to get it.
"After all, it's the engagement day of the master and Miss Lan, so the master will definitely come."
The robot spoke in a low voice, with no clear expression, as if it had no emotions at all.
Ye Xi lowered her eyes to look into the robot's eyes and explained, "Didn't I tell you that I won't get engaged to her?"
The reason he came was specifically to make Lan Ying give up the idea of getting engaged to him.
Since his parents didn't listen to him, he could only make a breakthrough from Lan Ying. Besides, it would be more effective to make Lan Ying give up the idea of getting engaged to him than to stop his parents directly.
The robot followed Ye Xi and got out of the car.
Walk into the magnificent auditorium.
Mrs. Ye and Mr. Ye walked in front.
Lan Ying's mother was greeting guests at the door. When she saw Ye's father and mother, she smiled as if she had seen her in-laws.
"Mrs. Ye, Mr. Ye, I'm waiting for you."
After saying this, Lan Ying's mother glanced at Ye Xi behind them.
A famous interstellar scientist, a doctor respected by everyone, and a genius who has made contributions to the development of interstellar science at a young age.
Such a person becoming their son-in-law would be like icing on the cake for the family.
"Xixi, why don't you say hello to your aunt quickly." Mrs. Ye turned her head, stared at her son and reminded him.
Ye Xi frowned, looked at Lan Ying's mother, and called out respectfully but unfamiliarly, "Hello, Auntie."
Mother Lan looked at him with satisfaction, "Aying is in there, go and play with her."
Ye Xi lowered his eyes and continued moving forward with the robot.
"Master, it's so lively here."
The robot looked at the lively scene in the auditorium with neither arrogance nor servility, its eyes sweeping over each of the glamorous people.
There are countless handsome men and beautiful women, and they are all rich.
Ye Xi walked through the hall, his bearing was out of tune with the hustle and bustle here, but because of this he stood out from the crowd and stood out from the crowd.
As for Jiang Ye who was standing next to Ye Xi, he also became the focus of everyone's attention because of his handsome features.
"I didn't expect Dr. Ye to attend such an event. I thought he only had scientific research on his mind..."
"I heard from insider information that tonight is Dr. Ye and Lan Ying's engagement day. Do you think he can not come?"
"He's so handsome, but he's already engaged. What a pity."
"What a pity! A man like Dr. Ye doesn't belong to the common people like us."
"Why are you only talking about Dr. Ye? I think the guy standing next to Dr. Ye is also very handsome. Does anyone know him?"
"Yeah, that one is also very handsome..."
The robot's hearing ability is no better than that of an average person, and Jiang Ye could hear those people's whispers clearly.
When Jiang Ye heard others praise his handsomeness, he felt as happy as a child who had been given candy.
"Master, a girl complimented me on my handsomeness. What do you think?" the robot asked, and his tone seemed to show that he was proud of his own looks.
Upon hearing this, Ye Xi slightly tilted his head and looked at the robot beside him.
The robot has a colorful, eye-catching smile on his face, perfectly proportioned features, and every move he makes is unmistakably radiant.
There were already many eyes nearby, staring at his robot eagerly.
Ye Xi's eyes darkened.
He whispered a few emotionless words, "0852, don't laugh in public."
The robot's system data can easily detect that the owner is unhappy. As for why he is unhappy, the robot can only superficially conclude that it is his own smile that causes the unhappiness.
But Jiang Ye, who has human thinking, can easily tell that Ye Xi seems to be... jealous?
"Okay, master." The robot looked particularly innocent and suppressed the smile on his lips.
At the same time, he explained, "Master, I just thought it was polite to smile at such an occasion, so I smiled."
Ye Xi said in a cold voice and expressionless face, "You don't need to be polite to others."
Jiang Ye: ...stingy.
Soon, Ye Xi found Lan Ying among the crowd, who was like a star surrounding the moon.
Jiang Ye also saw the woman.
Lan Ying was wearing a starry blue dress embroidered with sparkling diamonds, which set off her snow-white skin. She looked as beautiful as a dream, just like the most noble princess.
"I'll go find her."
Ye Xi stopped and turned to look at his robot. "Just wait for me here."
The robot could only obey, so it stood still and said, "Master, remember to come back to me when you are done."
Ye Xi nodded and walked towards Lan Ying.
Lan Ying noticed the movement here, although she was a little dissatisfied to see that annoying robot also appear here.
But as he watched Ye Xi approaching him, he became excited and nervous again.
She pinched the hem of her skirt, straightened her back, and waited for her beloved man to come to her.
Finally, Ye Xi walked in front of Lan Ying.
The friends surrounding Lan Ying spontaneously dispersed, and before leaving, they looked at them with blessings and envy, as if they were sighing that they were a perfect match.
"Axi, you're here." Lan Ying smiled gracefully.
Lan Ying pursed her lips and said, "Is it convenient for you? I want to talk to you in the back garden."
Back garden...
Lan Ying thought of something and her cheeks flushed slightly.
She looked at Ye Xi's elegant and delicate face and nodded shyly, "Yes."
Jiang Ye watched helplessly as Ye Xi and Lan Ying left together in the midst of public attention, not knowing where they were going.
He wanted to follow, but he couldn't because of Ye Xi's previous instructions.
[Host, don't worry. The master will never do anything to let you down!] Xiaojunju said firmly.
Xiao Hei also spoke up, [Jiang Ye, how about you let me out and I'll go find out for you? ]
Jiang Ye thought of Xiao Hei's mischievous temper and said with a dark face, "Forget it, you should just stay here."
…
In the back garden, there was a faint fragrance of flowers lingering around, the moon was hanging high in the sky, and even the air had an atmosphere suitable for romance.
Lan Ying followed Ye Xi nervously.
In her eyes, this was the first time Ye Xi took the initiative towards her.
Thinking of this, Lan Ying became even more nervous.
Ye Xi stopped by the pool.
He lowered his head and looked at the woman. "Miss Lan, my parents should have already discussed with your family and let me get engaged to you."
The woman nodded shyly, "Yes."
Ye Xi looked at the woman calmly, just like looking at anything without emotion. "Let's cancel the engagement, okay?"
Lan Ying raised her head and looked at Ye Xi. She was slightly stunned when she met Ye Xi's emotionless gaze.
The smile on his face was a little stiff, "Ah Xi, don't you want to?"
Ye Xi said, "Sorry, that was just my parents' idea."
Lan Ying's heart seemed to have fallen into an ice cellar. A few minutes ago, she was still fantasizing that Ye Xi would be attracted to her tonight.
She got up early, washed and dressed, and received a call from Ye's parents, claiming that tonight would be the day she and Ye Xi were engaged. She was full of expectations, but what she waited for was Ye Xi's ruthless rejection?
"My uncle and aunt said that feelings can be cultivated."
Lan Ying bit her lower lip and said unwillingly, "We can spend more time together and slowly cultivate our feelings..."
Ye Xi's facial features looked even colder in the moonlight.
His tall and straight figure wrapped in the dress was impeccable.
"I don't want to develop a relationship with you." The man said truthfully. His calm voice didn't mean to hurt anyone, he was just stating a fact.
But what is said truthfully is often the most hurtful.
Lan Ying tugged at the hem of her skirt, holding back the pain in her heart, and looked at Ye Xi and asked, "Why?"
"Maybe I'm not interested."
As for more specific reasons, Ye Xi felt that he couldn't explain it.
In short, I just don't want to cultivate feelings with her.
"Does Ye Xi have someone she likes?" Lan Ying couldn't understand. Unless Ye Xi had someone she liked, why would she reject her?
When Ye Xi heard Lan Ying's question, she blinked her long eyelashes.
Is there anyone you like?
Ye's father and mother asked Ye Xi the same question many times, and every time Ye Xi said no without even thinking about it.
Only this time, a face suddenly appeared in Ye Xi's mind.
Ye Xi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.
"no."
As for 0852...he was just more interested.
Because 0852 is also the crystallization of science.
How else could he like a robot?
…
Ye Xi has already said this. Even if Lan Ying is unwilling and determined, she can only ask her parents to cancel the engagement ceremony tonight.
When Lan Ying's mother heard her daughter take the initiative to cancel the engagement ceremony, her eyes widened in surprise. "Why? Haven't you always liked Dr. Ye?"
With red eyes, Lan Ying told her mother everything that happened tonight.
Lan's mother was furious after hearing this.
"The Ye family, the parents have agreed, but the son is messing around again. Do they think we are easy to bully and want to play us around?"
The Lan couple didn't treat Mrs. Ye and Mr. Ye well all night.
They had already leaked the news in advance that Lan Ying would be engaged to Ye Xi, and many people knew about it.
But now they are not getting engaged. Isn't this a slap in their faces?
How could they possibly still be nice to the Ye family?
