Chapter 142 Do You Want to Go Back?
Teresa walked in slowly with her usual frightened little rabbit-like appearance, glanced at Xu Yi, hesitated for a moment, and then asked softly: "Master President, do you...do you have time now?" ?”
"Huh? What's the matter?" Xu Yi asked back. ,
"If you...you have time, can you please visit the R&D center? Master Canby and the others...they are going to fight."
"Huh?" Xu Yi thought that a person like Teresa suddenly came to find him because of some other things, but he never expected to say such a thing when he opened his mouth.
"Canby and the others are going to fight? With whom? Why?" Xu Yi asked in astonishment.
"With Master Donorman and Master Portelo." Theresa lowered her head and replied. "Because they were arguing about the magic cannon, no one would be convinced, so they are arguing fiercely now. When I left just now, they were almost about to start..."
"These guys are really..." Xu Yi shook his head helplessly.
The dwarves in Canby work hard, have excellent skills, are not afraid of hardship, and are full of enthusiasm for their own research work. They can be said to be perfect R&D personnel, but they have a common bad problem, that is, they have the habit of dwarves. Some have a fiery temper.
This fiery temper is usually okay, but it is inevitable that different opinions will arise during the research and development process, so when they argue with each other, it is easy to detonate.
Because of this, these dwarf engineers at the Magic Machine Tool R&D Center of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce had quarreled a lot before, and even fought directly.
Although they are very measured, they will not cause any fatal damage. And forget about it right away. Still get along well. It doesn't affect the continued cooperation, but Xu Yi has to wipe their ass every time, which is also a headache.
"Okay, I'll go there right away." Xu Yi looked around, tidied up a little, and signaled Teresa to leave with him.
When she walked out of the living room, Teresa glanced at the large map hanging on the wall, and a trace of doubt flashed across her expression.
Xu also noticed her gaze. He just smiled, didn't say much, and walked out quickly.
The magic machine tool research and development center is a little far away from Xu Yi's private estate. If Xu Yi was alone, he could use teleportation magic to teleport there, but now with Teresa, there is no way to do so.
So he simply took Teresa to the magic car he parked in the yard, and motioned Teresa to sit on it.
After both of them sat down in the magic car, Xu Yi suddenly thought of a question.
"By the way, Teresa. How did you come here? And why did you come to me? Where's Phoebe? Why doesn't she come?"
The Feiwen that Xu Yi mentioned is the administrative director of the Magic Machine Tool R&D Center of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Mainly responsible for various administrative affairs of the Magic Machine Tool R&D Center, and does not participate in specific R&D work.
According to what the engineers in the R&D center said in private, Feiwen is like their nanny and housekeeper.
When Camby and the others had a fierce quarrel before, if they couldn't hold it down, it was Fei Wen who came to move Xu Yi to be a rescuer.
"Supervisor Feiwen's granddaughter was born yesterday, and she has been on leave for the past few days." Teresa replied.
"Oh... I remember now." Xu Yi nodded and continued to look at Teresa, waiting for her answer.
Teresa was scorned by Xu Yi's gaze, her face flushed slightly, she lowered her head again, and after a while she replied softly: "I saw that no one could stop Master Canby and the others, so I thought I should come to you. They are all very busy, and I feel... I feel that I haven't seen you, Chairman, for a long time, so I came here..."
Seeing that Teresa's ears turned red from embarrassment, Xu Yi smiled, stopped asking, started the magic car, and rushed out of the manor in an instant.
After the magic car drove more than two kilometers on the road in the main base, Teresa slowly recovered, raised her head and looked at Xu Yi again, with a trace of concentration in her expression.
"What are you looking at?" Xu Yi noticed her gaze and asked with a smile.
Teresa quickly looked away.
"No... nothing..."
Teresa didn't speak, but Xu Yi took the initiative to ask.
"Speaking of... Teresa, you have been working in the Magic Machine Tool R&D Center's military magic machinery department for almost a year? I haven't asked you yet, how do you feel working during this time?"
Hearing that Xu Yi was concerned about her situation, Teresa smiled sweetly, and replied: "Thank you, Mr. President, for your concern. I have had a very fulfilling time, and the colleagues in the R&D center have treated me very well and cared a lot. Me, I had a great time with them."
"Really? I heard from Evita that you often go to her to discuss the research and development of military magic machinery. It seems that you are working hard."
Teresa quickly passed an extremely imperceptible strange expression, nodded and said: "Well, I want to make more contributions to the Chamber of Commerce, so I have to work harder. Dean Evita is very good to me , she helped me a lot."
"Well, this is what she should do as the dean, and I also privately ask her to help you more." Xu Yi suddenly sighed softly: "But Teresa, you want to develop military magic machines so much , Is it really because of your father, Viscount Dolan Carlo?"
The smile on Teresa's face disappeared instantly, she lowered her head in silence for a moment, and when she raised her head again, the expression on her face became extremely firm.
"Yes, Mr. President. My father and the whole family were personally destroyed by those despicable nobles of the Sark Kingdom. I am the only daughter left by him. I must avenge them!"
"But have you ever thought about a problem? In fact, even if you work hard to develop military magic machines, you may not be able to use them against the nobles of the Sak Kingdom. In fact, these military magic machines that you personally participated in the research and development will not be able to be used in the future." It will be sent to the nobles of the Sark Kingdom that you hate." Xu Yidao.
Teresa was stunned, couldn't help but widen her eyes, and asked Xu Yi with an incredulous expression: "Master President, you...are you joking? Are you planning to sell magic machines to King Sak? Then Haven't you always hated the Sac Kingdom?"
"I just don't like the Kingdom of Sark, because they actually joined forces with Grand Duke Weilun to attack our chamber of commerce. But if you say hatred... that's not enough. After all, I am a businessman after all, and our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce. As long as If the conditions are sufficient, it is possible to sell products to anyone, are you right?"
Teresa stared blankly at Xu Yi for a while, various complex emotions flashed in her eyes, finally she gritted her teeth, lowered her head again, and remained silent.
Xu Yi looked at her, with a meaningful smile on his lips, and continued to ask, "Are you disappointed?"
Teresa shook her head slowly, remaining silent.
"Teresa, I understand your feelings, and I sympathize with your experience. But you must understand that I am the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and I must consider the interests of the entire chamber of commerce. If Feishang will bring enough benefits, I don't mind letting go of the previous grievances between the two parties. As for your personal wishes... Although it is cruel to say this, I can only say that it is not important in comparison."
Teresa lowered her head even lower, and finally buried her head in her knees, her legs were bent, her hands were encircled, her back was trembling slightly, and there was a slight sobbing sound.
Xu Yi glanced at her, there was still a slightly weird smile on the corner of his mouth, but his tone of voice became more gentle, and he said softly: "Actually, Teresa, don't you think that the person you want to take revenge on is wrong? It’s not the entire Sark kingdom that’s persecuting your father, Viscount Dolan Carlo, and your family, but only Count Ozil, isn’t it? Why do you have to target the entire Sark kingdom?”
Teresa looked up abruptly, with tears in her eyes and face, but she couldn't hide the surprise in the application.
"Master... President, you... do you know?"
Xu Yi shrugged: "Of course, after hearing what happened to you, I asked someone to investigate this matter. According to intelligence, your father and family were all framed by this Earl Ozil, the so-called treason The crime, of course, is a fiction. In fact, in the Kingdom of Sark, your father has already been vindicated and his reputation restored. You have been staying here for the past few years, so you don’t know the news.”
Teresa trembled slightly, the expression on her face changed several times, and then she asked in a trembling voice: "Master President, you... since you already knew, why didn't you tell me?"
"I only confirmed this news last month, and because I was busy, I never had a chance to tell you." Xu Yi shrugged.
Teresa looked at Xu Yi with a bewildered expression.
Xu Yi sighed and said: "Teresa, it doesn't matter even if you want to return to the Kingdom of Sark now, your father's reputation has been restored, and Count Ozil, who persecuted your father and family, has been convicted and imprisoned by the Kingdom of Sark. So when you go back, you can take over your father's title and return to your hometown to live an ordinary and peaceful life. Are you...willing to go back?"
Teresa stared blankly for a while, then slowly shook her head.
"No... I... I won't go back... I don't want to go back to the place that made me sad." Teresa suddenly trembled, looked directly at Xu Yi, and asked eagerly: "Master President, Are you trying to drive me away?"
"Of course not." Xu Yi waved his hand. "You can stay here as long as you want if you want."
Teresa breathed a sigh of relief, and her whole body softened.
She lowered her head and thought for a while, then raised her head and looked at Xu Yi seriously, her expression became extremely firm.
"Master President."
"Ok?"
There was a relatively sharp turn ahead, Xu Yi focused on driving, but did not turn his head to look at her.
However, after a while, he suddenly felt that his right hand was grabbed by a pair of soft little hands, lifted up, and then pressed against a mass of softness.
"squeak--"
The shrill brake sound suddenly sounded and spread far away. (To be continued..)
