Shen Bing wanted to slap himself! What a big mouth. Why did I have to blurt that out?
"Uh, we prefer places with more people. They're livelier." Shen Bing finally managed to squeeze out a sentence, breaking the silence.
The Chief did not dwell on the matter. "Forget it. I just don't understand you young people. If your schedule allows, come to Kyoto as soon as possible. There are quite a few things we need to discuss with you in person."
Shen Bing immediately said, "I'll reach Capital City this afternoon, probably around five. As for vaca—"
Before Shen Bing could finish, the Chief said, "Good, then I'll have dinner prepared. It's not often I get to share a meal with you, kid, so it's settled. Remember to bring your girlfriend. Hmm, bring that young lady named Yuan Wei along too."
What could Shen Bing say? Naturally, he could only agree.
After hanging up, Shen Bing was still a little dazed.
He shook his head gently, then called Yun Xue.
Yun Xue's image immediately appeared before him, her figure graceful and elegant.
This was possible because Yun Xue was using the same new phone... uh, watch, allowing them to communicate through holograms.
At that moment, Yun Xue was fiddling with a huge mechanical arm almost two meters long.
It was quite a striking sight: a seemingly delicate beauty holding a two-meter-long Metal Arm in one hand, looking so relaxed that it might as well have been plastic... but in reality, it was made entirely of metal alloy.
"Shen Bing, are you coming home for dinner?" Yun Xue set down the mechanical arm and asked tenderly.
Shen Bing said, "I'll be back in a little while, but don't bother cooking. We're going to Kyoto to score a free dinner."
