Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife-Chapter 1190: Lingxin and Mingli (1)
Hearing that a strange guest had arrived, Xiao Jianming was the first to stand up and walk out. The old lady watched her son’s back, with a tinge of worry in her brows.
Xiao Shuju observed the expressions of the two with curiosity and asked the old lady, "What’s wrong with Dad?"
The guest might not necessarily be Gu Nuan or Xiao Yebai, because now the house belonged to Gu Nuan. Why did Xiao Jianming run out first?
The old lady sighed and simply said, "What must come will come." It should be said that today’s reaction was anticipated for a long time.
Xiao Shuju leaned out of the window and indeed saw that the coming guest was strange.
It was an ordinary courier delivering a package to the Ruan family villa. Of course, it was allowed inside only after security at the gate confirmed it was not a bomb.
The package was delivered to the small living room. The courier normally handed the receipt to the recipient to sign, and the sender specifically requested Gu Nuan to sign for it. Steward Xiao took the delivery note to find Gu Nuan.
After receiving the message, Gu Nuan came downstairs with her husband to the small living room, seeing Xiao Jianming already sitting there, clearly waiting for them to open the package.
The box was on the table, a cardboard box, not large, about the size to fit a half-meter-tall doll.
The exterior showed no abnormalities. After the security used an X-ray machine to scan it, it was found to contain a small humanoid robot.
Gu Nuan checked the delivery slip; it was sent from abroad, and the address and name could be fake, thus insufficient as leads. The courier only delivered the package, unaware of any details, so Gu Nuan signed without giving the delivery service a hard time.
After the outsiders left, Xiao Yebai took a pair of scissors and personally unwrapped the packaging, revealing the robot inside, white, without limbs, only a round head and a half-body called a base. A very ordinary robot.
The only difference was that this robot had no switch, no remote control, appearing beyond human manipulation.
Xiao Shuju supported the old lady and came over. At the sight of this thing, she exclaimed, "Who sent this, to give it to those two little monkeys as gifts? The monkeys are so small, they wouldn’t play with such a big toy."
The old lady patted Shuju’s hand, "Don’t speak carelessly."
Just as their conversation ended, the robot emitted a beep, started up, and began talking with a sweet female broadcaster’s voice; however, what it said was certainly not usual host content.
The robot addressed everyone in the room, "I am a representative of Ruan Ruzhen, here to demand that my grandson take the surname Ruan."
The old lady immediately clutched her chest, frightened as the robot mentioned Ruan Ruzhen.
Xiao Shuju pounced over, staring at the robot’s flickering eye screen, asking, "Are you saying you’re from my mom?"
"Yes." The robot answered seriously, speaking as if it were a human, the answer was unmistakable.
Compared to the old lady’s shock and Xiao Shuju’s excitement, the other three people in the room, Xiao Yebai, Xiao Jianming, and Gu Nuan, were all deep in thought. Because they knew very well, the current stage of robots couldn’t achieve full intelligence, making it impossible to think and talk like humans. However, if this robot had an excellent antenna system, remote control and transmission could be feasible, meaning the person speaking with them now wasn’t the robot but someone, or several people, from somewhere in the world.
The robot saying it’s a representative of Ruan Ruzhen might indeed be true.
