Chapter 163: Delivering Product

The Si Huan now was the same as the Xi Cheng in the past. The rotting family was pressing down on him, and the chains of interest strangled him, not giving him any time to catch his breath.

Xi Cheng’s decades of life experience made him understand that some of the heavy burdens he had been carrying when he was young were unnecessary.

If he could cut off the family responsibilities and completely give up on the things his father had given him, he would be able to live an even more relaxed life. Xi Cheng had taken a detour in life and when he saw the current Si Huan, he could not help but want to give him more reminders and guidance.

Fortunately, Si Huan was a person who knew what was good for him. After meeting Xi Cheng a few times, he could sense that Xi Cheng was giving him pointers every now and then.

Si Huan didn’t think Xi Cheng was being nosy. Instead, he humbly listened to some of Xi Cheng’s suggestions. Because of this, Si Huan interacted more with Xi Cheng than Huo Tian.

A week passed and Huo Tian brought the finished robotic exoskeleton equipment to let Xi Cheng try it on. This time, Si Huan wasn’t the only one who came. Bi Ying, who was the programmer, also came with them.

Xi Cheng had only seen Bi Ying in the video. This was their first time meeting and he was very curious about him.

Xi Cheng did not hide anything but looked directly at Bi Ying’s legs and asked curiously, “I saw in the video of the product launch that both of your legs were amputated. Is that right?”

Perhaps it was because Xi Cheng was also disabled in both legs and he was currently sitting in a wheelchair, or because Xi Cheng’s attitude was open and aboveboard, that Bi Ying did not feel offended. He also did not avoid talking about his legs.

“Yes, due to some accidents when I was young, my legs were amputated from above my knees.”

Bi Ying rolled up his pants, revealing a pair of silvery-white robotic prosthetic limbs that were covered by his pants.

Xi Cheng bent over and knocked on his robotic prosthetic limbs curiously. The prosthetic limbs made clanking sounds.

This pair of robotic prosthetic limbs were an ordinary person’s legs. When they were touched, they subconsciously took a small step back.

Xi Cheng found this even more novel. “If I hadn’t touched the metal’s texture, I really wouldn’t have believed that this was a pair of robotic prosthetic limbs. This reaction is as agile as normal human legs.”

However, Bi Ying shook his head and said truthfully, “There are still differences between robotic prosthetic limbs and normal human legs. If it were normal legs, they’d have subconsciously dodged when you wanted to touch them. However, robotic prosthetic limbs only transfer the senses to the nerves in the legs after actual contact. Only then would they make dodging movements.”

Looking at Bi Ying’s serious expression, Xi Cheng laughed out loud. “You’re as cute as Huo Tian. Although robotic prosthetic limbs can’t be compared to normal legs, for a cripple like me who has been sitting in a wheelchair for more than ten years, to be able to achieve this degree is already something I wouldn’t even dare to think about. Yet, you’re still not satisfied.”

Bi Ying’s expression eased a little, but he still said solemnly, “Only by maintaining a perfectionist attitude can we be able to make products that are close to perfection. If we tolerate the existence of flaws from the start, we might not have been able to do it to this extent.”

“That’s indeed the case.” Xi Cheng nodded in admiration and said to Huo Tian, “When I was abroad in the past, I always felt that youngsters these days are too impetuous and it’d be difficult for them to achieve great things. However, when we arrived in China, I realized that it’s not that there are no young talents, but that I’ve never met them before. Speaking of which, my child should be as old as you guys. You guys can interact more in the future. If he can become friends with the three of you, I’ll be relieved.”

His words were a little strange. Bi Ying and Si Huan both had high EQ and knew the ways of the world. Therefore, despite feeling puzzled, they didn’t say anything.

However, Huo Tian was different from them. She was never one to keep her questions to herself.

He asked directly, “Uncle Xi, your words sound so strange. Don’t you know how old your child is?”
