Reincarnation: Multi-skilled Goddess Is So Beautiful!

Chapter 256: The Best Way to Shut Them Up is to Show Them Your Skills

Dou Xiaoyong was unhappy with his attitude, but he still said, “I’m only using the retrofit machine to modify the control panel.”

“Go ahead, but this student can always wait downstairs.”

Zi Yi looked up and just happened to make eye contact with the middle-aged man.

She detected displeasure in his eyes.

Zi Yi said, “Professor Dou, if there are school regulations, I’ll wait for you by the stairs. You can help me with the modification.”

Professor Dou furrowed his brows. His motive today was to see how skilled Zi Yi was and he would certainly not do it on her behalf.

“Even though there are rules forbidding students on the third floor, there’s no rule that researchers’ assistants are now allowed here. You’re now my assistant and so what if you’re here?”

After that, he turned to the middle-aged man and sternly said, “Professor Chen, Little Zi is my assistant. You have no right to forbid her from coming up.”

Instantly, Professor Chen’s expression became ugly. He turned to Zi Yi and sternly said, “A student who is only good at taking papers and attracting attention and an Uncle who protects her… Professor Dou, mechanics is not child’s play nor is it an entertainment place for you to coax your niece. You’d better think through this clearly.”

Professor Chen left after having said his piece.

After looking at Professor Chen’s departing back, Zi Yi turned to face Dou Xiaoyong.

He had also just happened to make eye contact with her. “No one will like another person for no reason. The best way to make them shut up is to show them your skills.”

Zi Yi nodded and agreed with his point of view.

Thus, the two of them continued to make their way inside the lab.

Zi Yi modified the control panel swiftly and they returned to the second-floor lab.

The several Ph.D. students were all looking forward to her work. The moment they saw them coming back, they hastily went up to surround her.

This time, no one spoke. All of them were staring at Zi Yi as she assembled the parts one after another and finally, she had inserted the control panel.

Zi Yi quickly pressed around the panel while she said, “The materials aren’t that great and I can only make do with them. What I made is a cleaning robot. You can check out its capabilities shortly.”

After she said that, she stopped what she was doing and gave out an order. “Sort out everything inside the room.”

“Instruction received. The program has been generated.”

The robot immediately started to move.

The Ph.D. students were all stunned and rooted to their spots.

“Is this robot truly capable of sorting out all the parts here?”

“There are at least a few thousand spare parts here and all of them are of different models. How does it sort them out?”

…

After some time later.

The robot stopped moving and Zi Yi announced, “It’s done.”

She then said to Dou Xiaoyong, “You can check now.”

Before Dou Xiaoyong managed to take a step forward, the Ph.D. students were already running around to check the sorting.

Following that…

“Oh my, B3 spare parts are all placed together.”

“A2 parts are also grouped together.”

…

Dou Xiaoyong looked at Zi Yi and his expression contained a hint of complicated emotions. He patted her shoulders and said, “You’re good.”

Zi Yi revealed a confident smile. “I am capable of much more. The parts here aren’t that great.”

Dou Xiaoyong had also laughed. “I’ll bring you to my laboratory in a couple of days. There are the most high-end materials there.”

“Okay.”

“Also…” Dou Xiaoyong suddenly became serious. “Call me Second Uncle in the future. Don’t always brush it off.”

Zi Yi: “…”

…

Elder Dou, who was resting at home, suddenly called Dou Jingning to his side.

Dou Jingning looked at his father sitting on the couch and called out, “Father.”

Elder Dou asked, “I heard she came to the capital?”

Dou Jingning’s heart jumped. He had no idea how his father came to know of this and carefully replied, “Yes. She’s been here for half a month.”

“You’ve all met her?”

“I’ve met with her once. Zerui and Xiangling are rather close to her and they often mention her these days.”

When Dou Jingning said that, he carefully stared at his father’s expression, for fear that he would get angry.

Old man Dou’s expression was considered calm as he said, “If she has sincerely changed for the better, we have to educate her well. No matter how unbearable our family members are, they are not someone who can be casually scolded by other people.”
