"Understood. I'll get right on it." Fang Zhi nodded, but did not immediately turn to leave.

From what he knew of President Qin, there should still be more instructions to come.

Sure enough, after lowering his eyes in thought for a moment, Qin Sili told Fang Zhi, "Have Yu Xingyao contact Duan Linfeng. Tell him Xingyao Technology has a business deal it wants to collaborate on with Linfeng Technology."

"All right. I'll contact President Yu right away." This time, after acknowledging the instructions, Fang Zhi turned and left without lingering.

Qin Sili checked the time and remembered how Lu Chiyan had said over the phone that he would go home and cook for him. A faint smile unconsciously curved his lips. He stood, picked up the suit jacket draped over the back of his chair, and walked out of his office.

This time, Qin Sili did not wait for Fang Zhi and drove back to the Qin residence himself.

"Master seems to be in a very good mood today." Not long after getting into the car, Qin Sili heard Lucky's voice. "Playing 'Season of Love' for Master now."

Qin Sili: "..." My mood really was pretty good, but now you've left me speechless, thanks!

"Play something else," Qin Sili said, his expression darkening.

Lucky: "Of course, Master. Switching to 'Sunny Day of Love' right away."

Qin Sili: "???"

"Something else!" Qin Sili's expression darkened again.

Lucky: "Playing 'Love in Progress' for Master now."

Qin Sili: "..."

"Do you have some romance KPI you haven't met today?" Qin Sili's lips twitched in speechless exasperation.

"Lucky has detected that Master's mood today matches the state of being in love. These songs are all suitable for playing when one is in love. I hope Master enjoys them."

Qin Sili: "Your detection was wrong."

"Lucky's detection cannot be wrong."

Qin Sili: "..."

A brief silence fell inside the car.

It was not that Qin Sili did not want to speak, but that he felt arguing about "being in love" with an AI here made him seem rather foolish.

Perhaps to break the silence, Lucky changed the subject. "Young Master Lu has already arrived home."

Qin Sili still said nothing.

But Lucky detected a fluctuation within Qin Sili.

So it continued, "Young Master Lu is in the kitchen preparing dinner for Master. He is asking Lucky for help."

"..." Qin Sili replied icily, "Then go help him."

The subtext: You can shut up on my end now!

Lucky: "Displaying the live feed for Master now."

As soon as Lucky finished speaking, an image of the Qin residence's kitchen appeared on a display to one side inside the car. The footage came from the robot Lucky's camera.

At that moment, Lu Chiyan was standing in front of Lucky, agonizing over what to cook, so his face appeared right in the center of the image. Qin Sili glanced at the screen and saw Lu Chiyan fretting, his little mouth turned down and his brows furrowed in distress. He looked rather cute.

Qin Sili was driving, so naturally he could not stare at the screen, but he heard Lu Chiyan's voice. "Lucky, have you misunderstood something about me? These dishes you're recommending are five-star-chef-level difficult! Give me something simpler and easier to learn, the kind of dish even an elementary schooler could make."

After Lu Chiyan finished speaking, he saw four Chinese characters appear on the screen on Lucky's chest-stir-fried seasonal vegetables.

I'm worried everyone might not understand, so let me explain the setup for "Lucky" here.

"Lucky's" physical form is a robot shaped just like a human, 1.8 meters tall, with a display on its chest like a smart tablet, as well as a camera function.

But beyond that physical form, he is also an intelligent system. This system can be installed at home or in a car. Once installed, it allows all electrical appliances and equipment to be controlled directly by talking to the Lucky robot.

You can also chat with Lucky when there's nothing else going on.

This is just an imaginative idea about AI and bionic intelligence, though perhaps it doesn't really count as one. Current technology might already have been capable of all this for quite some time.
