Chapter 47: A master mech builder can be so awesome.

When Gu Tunan stood upright and said the words "I'm sorry" with a sober face, he looked like a reformed prisoner, and the moment he opened his mouth, he surprised Tang Bai.

Gu Tunan, a simpleton, apologised to me?

Tang Bai looked at Gu Tunan with round eyes, "Are you apologising for always snitching on me to the teacher?"

Gu Tunan: "I was wrong about this, but this is something I think ......"

Tang Bai: "......"

Tang Bai's eyes are empty, automatically filtering Gu Tunan's naive words and thinking about what this dog Qin Jun is up to.

In the book Qin Jun does bad things like going to the underground arena and sabotaging Xie Ruhang's mechs and whatnot, and other bad things like working for Cheng Yangbin as a lapdog ...... What?

A vague suspicion bubbled up in Tang Bai's mind as her delicate brow furrowed a little.

Gu Tunan went from the dangers of omega's going out alone to the commendable attention the school leaders were giving to the safety of omega trainees, and halfway through, he suddenly realised something was wrong.

Seeing Tang Bai's frown, a hint of chagrin flashed in his grey-blue eyes as Gu Tunan tried to salvage the situation, "Actually, I'm really going to do it this time--"

"I got it!!!" Tang Bai suddenly looked up excitedly as he haphazardly handed Gu Tunan his love bento: "This is for you, you can give it to Xie for me ......" No, no, no! We can't give any chance for the protagonist to warm up his relationship with the attacker!

Tang Bai hurriedly changed her tone: "You helped me out! Thank you so much for today! I'll leave now. Bye!"

After saying this, Tang Bai handed the lunchbox to Gu Tunan and left in a hurry.

Gu Tunan was flattered to see the bunny lunchbox in his hand after so many days, but he finally had it again.

Gu Tunan is a pleasant surprise.

Gu Tunan tries to show off.

Gu Tunan carries Tang Bai's bunny lunchboxes like a general returning from a victory, receiving attention with his trophies, or like a celebrity carrying the latest bag.

As Gu Tunan walked around the practice room with the bunny bento and opened it up to release the aroma while everyone was training in full swing, the eyes of the crowd fell on the bunny bento in search of the tantalising aroma.

Xie Ruhang also glanced up at the cute little bunny without realising it, and then he was staring at it like he had a fixation on it!

Tang Bai used the same insulated box every time he brought him a love note, one with a bunny on it and a tiny scratch on the bunny's left ear!

He finally knew what was worse than finding out that the object of the hunt was a pink rabbit mech -

And this bunny mech turns green!!!

Tang Bai sneezes and rubs his nose as he rushes home, taking a half day off from work with Director Huang on the way.

Ever since Tang Bai came up with the glandular scar imitation makeup, it's been getting better and better to take time off at Director Wong's place.

Tang Bai was on his way home when he began to recall the plot of the book. None of Cheng Yangbin's designs for the Federation Mecha Competition were his own, and the drawings for the preliminary and final rounds were all bought for money.

The book only mentions that Cheng Yangbin bought his preliminary drawings from an Imperial mech designer, and Tang Bai thought the same was true for the final and final rounds.

Qin Jun was Cheng Yangbin's henchman, and would help him do many things that were not seen, things that Cheng Yangbin did not want to do himself and was afraid of getting his hands dirty, Qin Jun would do, and things that Cheng Yangbin had to avoid suspicion, Qin Jun would also do.

Qin Jun, as a member of the Qin family, is not short of money to buy mechs, and is it possible that Qin Jun is collecting mech drawings for Cheng Yangbin at this time?

After arriving home, Tang Bai persuaded him to borrow Grandpa Tang's seller number.

The Coffin of Mechanics is an organisation with a high barrier to entry, requiring a hefty annual membership fee, where you can buy weapon drawings, weapon parts and energy crystals that are rarely seen outside.

Tang Bai bought many of the materials he has saved over the years from the Mechanical Coffin. The Mechanical Coffin can be traded online, which is formal and secure, and is much safer than the black market exchanges in the slums, where most of the goods in circulation are stolen, whereas many of the items in the Mechanical Coffin are made and sold by weapons makers.

Tang Bai has an account at Mechanical Coffin, but it's a buyer's number.

Tang Bai has a lovely smile as she logs on to her new Gold seller number.

Cheng Yangbin left the final with a warm spring-like smile on his face as he waved at the spectators and the flying live balls on either side of him, but once inside the camera-free hover car, Cheng Yangbin's face suddenly sank.

Ever since he lost the preliminary round to " Jun Tongchen", he has not been able to market his mech building genius persona as he did before.

The picture of him and Xie Ruhang together flew around, and every time his fans blew him off, someone dumped a screenshot of him and Xie Ruhang together while they were live on air.

For a while the selling points he had marketed so wildly became slots, very detrimental to his pre-popularity build-up, and now the only chance to turn the tide against the wind is to win the final and a clean sweep!

Cheng Yangbin tapped on his lightbrain and asked to an account, " Did you find out Jun Tongchen's real identity?"

-- "It will take you a while longer."

Some time, some time, some more time until Jun Tongchen gets the title in the final and reveals his identity voluntarily? What a fucking loser!!!

Cheng Yangbin closes the dialogue box in annoyance and grabs his hair in an effort to calm himself down.

The first priority was to find design drawings that met the rules of the final. The final was a proposition creation and normally the topic was only known at the final, he had learned of the requirements in advance because of his family connections and was now acquiring drawings everywhere as well as looking for a mech engineer.

He was ready to piece together different designs from the same genre and sew them into his own masterpiece, but he was only good enough to create an average piece of work based on patchwork copying, not good enough to create something good enough to win the final, and it was time to find a master mech builder to help him improve.

The finals are coming up in a while, but he still hasn't found a suitable master mech builder yet.

Just as Cheng Yangbin's mood was getting grumpier, a message from Qin Jun brightened his day: "Young Cheng! I just found out that a top mech builder from another country has a slot available at the Coffin of Mechanics! I thought I wouldn't be able to get a slot. I thought I wouldn't be able to get a slot, but the master mech builder chose me! This is his personal account ......"

Cheng Yangbin was delighted: "Good! Well done!"

Cheng Yangbin is comfortable with the vetting capabilities of Mechanical Coffin, a weapons exchange platform where he has previously found mech builders from other countries to purchase drawings.

It would be difficult to find a mech builder from another country to wear out.

The Federation places a high value on mech technology, and like the contestants in the mech building competition where only the judges and the military ministry can see the actual mech designs, the mech design drawings circulating in the preliminary rounds are drawings of the shells, which are of little value and give the public a look.

So Cheng Yangbin wasn't worried about the master mech builder finding out that he had entered the competition with his improved drawings, unless the exotic mech builder was a member of the Federation military and had access to the drawings of the contestants in the competition.

But that's even less likely.

Because the Federation was afraid of revealing military secrets, it explicitly forbade the sale of drawings in the Mechanical Coffin by active military personnel.

He immediately added the mech builder's Starnet account, which was a newly opened trumpet, normal enough, they usually contacted the trumpet for private transactions.

He'd read about this master mech builder from Qin Jun, who'd been an ashen account on Coffin of Mechanics for so long, and had a 100% buyer satisfaction rating on that account on Coffin of Mechanics for so long! All the anonymous comments from buyers praised his skill!

Cheng Yangbin was satisfied with the profile of this master mech builder, the only thing he didn't like was the code word they had agreed on, a code word given by the master, who wouldn't let him change it.

Cheng Yangbin frowned and sent a message, "All alpha's surnamed Cheng are stupid."

Maestro: "Hmm."

Cheng Stupid: "Greetings Master, I am the buyer you picked on the Coffin of Machinery."

Guru: "You are still on probation and not quite my preferred buyer [smile.jpg]"

The killing power of the yellow bean smiley face is immense, and combined with the silly code words from earlier, Cheng Yangbin's expression is a little taut as he suspects the master is taunting him.

Older people emojis, understandably, are clearly used as a way to express friendliness, don't overthink it.

Cheng Yangbin: "What is the meaning of a trial period? Didn't you choose me at the Coffin of Mechanics? What is the price you have in mind? I can offer three times that."

Maestro: "It's not about the money."

Maestro: "I'm not short of money, I want to have a thoughtful resonance with my customers, a three-view fit, I don't do business with people whose aura doesn't fit."

Cheng Yangbin is dumbfounded.

A money deal where you don't talk about money and ideas?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Cheng Yangbin put himself in the right frame of mind and said humbly, "Do you think I fit in with your aura, Master?"

Maestro: "What do you think of Cheng Yangbin?"

Cheng Yangbin: "????"

Cheng Yangbin, who suddenly saw his name appear, was wary for a moment, suspecting that the master mech builder knew his true identity and was deliberately playing him.

Unlikely.

The master mech builder's account was linked to Qin Jun's, and he was not connected to Qin Jun, who was just an up-and-coming family dude.

Besides, the time of a master mech builder is so precious, and this master mech builder's account has been registered for longer than his age, how could such a mature and profound master mech builder deliberately play with him?

Thinking of the master's code word, Cheng Yangbin guessed that the master's enemy might be Cheng, so the master would probably be angry with someone named Cheng.

As a master mech builder, he is sure to keep an eye on new mech builders from different countries, and it is normal for him to be mentioned by the masters as he is in the limelight for the master mech builder.

Cheng, who was confident in his popularity, reached out and rubbed his hand over his clear jawline as he said narcissistically, "I think he's the newest talent in the Federation's mech building world."

Maestro: "[smile.jpg]"

Cheng Yangbin followed with a smile, "Are you expressing your approval, Master?"

MASTER: "I was laughing at your stupidity."

Cheng Yangbin's smile disappears on the spot.

Maestro: "Wrong-hearted, over-packaged, ugly man, I'm afraid he wants to mix not in the mechosphere but in politics, just using the mechosphere as a springboard, fortunately this is not my country's business, otherwise I'd be furious with him."

Cheng Yangbin's handsome face turned black and red, red and green, and in a split second he was typing out a curse word that would have been the master's ancestors!

Cheng Yangbin has never been cursed at so much in his life! Angry air flowed out of his flaring nostrils, and his two lips were almost unable to seal the unpleasant swear words, but the finger that clicked to send did not fall ......

mech design plans mech design plans mech design plans!

Cheng Yangbin does his best to maintain the poise expected of a beautiful man.

Maestro: "How could such scum come out of your national mecha circle! One rat turd spoils the congee, and this kind of tumor has stirred up the mechosphere in your country! What a misfortune for our country!"

Cheng Dumbass: "!!!"

He was so angry that his temples popped and his eyes turned red like a bison. He wanted to fight this master, but his fingers moved honestly to the send button, afraid that he might inadvertently swear out this long list of swear words and ruin his deal with this master mech builder.

A man who has achieved greatness must endure what no one else can! For the sake of the mech design drawings, for the sake of the final championship, for the sake of entering the council, he endures!!!

Cheng Yangbin has endured the humiliation of having to delete all the swear words.

MASTER: "Why don't you say anything?"

Cheng Yangbin stared at the guru's avatar like he was his father's enemy and, holding back his anger, typed with his middle finger, "You're too good for me to interject."

Master: "If you're dumb, practice more, start by cursing at Cheng Yangbin to practice [smile.jpg]"

Cheng Yangbin was so angry that he pretended to curse himself, but in fact he cursed the master, and he said, "I'll go and breed you with dogs, you stupid bastard!"

Maestro: "Add Cheng Yangbin's name to the list."

Cheng Yangbin: "......"

On the other hand, Tang Bai watched Cheng Yangbin's performance of I Cursed Myself in the chat log and laughed until tears came to his eyes as he took a screenshot of his madness and couldn't wait to share the source of his happiness with the world.

Tang Bai rubbed her belly with laughter and got up to put on a face mask for fear of getting wrinkles from laughing too much.

At this time, the account he had noted as Cheng Stupid sent a message asking, "Master, are you satisfied?"

Tang Bai said haughtily, "Poorly."

Cheng Yangbin asked in a stifled voice: "Do you think I am worthy of being your buyer, Master?"

Tang Bai: How many hands do you have?

Tang Bai: "How much can you pay?"

Cheng Yangbin: "?"

Cheng Yangbin: "Didn't you say you don't talk about money, Master?"

Tang Bai said coldly, "I'm just not short of money and I don't mind it." I'm not just going to play with your feelings, I'm going to plunder your money.

Cheng Yangbin: "10 million star coins for one change to the mech design."

Tang Bai: "Add a zero."

100 million star dollars! Only one change to the mech design! Why don't you just go rob the money!

Cheng Yangbin is furious! Cheng Yangbin is furious! Cheng Yangbin shouts, "Can we have a little less."

Yes, begging is such a humble thing to do, and a powerful master mech builder can be such a drag.

MASTER: "You haggle over the price, you are not sincere in your heart."

Cheng Yangbin: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

In the end, Tang Bai was able to take a big bite out of Cheng Yangbin, and after they had signed a non-disclosure agreement, Tang Bai saw the mech design Cheng Yangbin had given him.

There was a subtle cut to the drawing that perhaps the average mech builder wouldn't see, but Tang Bai, who had a strange acuity and insight in this area, raised his eyebrows slightly and gave a meaningful smile.

Cheng Stupid: "I have fused my mecha drawings designed at different times to create a better mecha, in this creation I have encountered a bottleneck, I hope the master will guide me."

Tang Bai returned lightly, "I don't like to explain, I'll just help you to enhance the work fully, you can look at the drawings and comprehend it yourself."

Cheng Yangbin: "Good."

*

Tang Bai had an idea for a text after his conversation with Cheng Yangbin, but he wasn't sure if the idea would work, so he clicked on the dialog box with X.

Not in love but in business: "Angel, I want to set up a plagiarism-addicted villain in Jun Tongchen's academy chapter, who is a mechanical student and wants to run for chief."

x: "What was the specific conflict between him and Jun Tongchen?"

Tang Bai didn't expect a second reply from x. He blinked and chatted with x about the plot. After almost half an hour, Tang Bai gushed, "You're an amazing little genius!"

Not in love and in business: "[Happy peacock opening with super unbeatable snake skin stick.gif]"

x: "You're great too."

Tang Bai noticed that X was not in the mood for chatting today and hadn't sent any emojis, so he cautiously asked, "Little angel, are you not in a good mood?"

x: "A little bit."

More than a little, the vinegar Xie Ruhang ate for the dumplings at lunchtime was enough to turn him into a cup of lemon tea.

Tang Bai immediately took on the role of a caring brother: "What's going on? If you want someone to talk to, I can be your therapist!"

Xie Ruhang was somehow even more sour when he saw how Tang Bai was so attached to this vest of X. He said sourly, "I heard someone say today that Tang Bai gave Gu Tunan a lunch box, does Tang Bai think that Gu Tunan is better than Xie Ruhang? I'm not sure if Tang Bai likes Xie Ruhang or Gu Tunan."

Phoenix eyes look at the light screen in resignation waiting to be comforted.

Tang Bai's question was a clear one, and he realised that the point that x was struggling with was the question "Is my man a green tea?

He also thought the omega was quite green if the one x mentioned wasn't him.

No, he had to explain!

Not in a relationship for a career: "Have you actually thought about it, Tang Bai he doesn't like both?"

Xie Ruhang: "......?!"
