Huo Tian didn’t notice the atmosphere stiffening up and continued, “And if you want him to be our friend, why don’t you let us meet now?”
Xi Cheng seemed to be stumped by her question and was speechless for a moment.
He was silent for a long while before he let out a long sigh and said with a sad expression, “The truth is, his mother and I have been apart for almost 20 years. I’m not a qualified husband and father. I lost my wife and my child…”
Huo Tian had always been a straightforward person, but now she realized that she had said something wrong and accidentally mentioned Xi Cheng’s sad past.
She was at a loss and quickly said, “Uncle Xi, don’t be sad. Even if you did something wrong in the past and angered your wife and child into running away, as long as you sincerely apologize, you’ll definitely be able to obtain their forgiveness…”
Huo Tian said this while looking at Si Huan and Bi Ying for help. Si Huan shook his head helplessly while Bi Ying looked like he couldn’t bear to look at this. He turned his head away and avoided Huo Tian’s gaze.
Only then did Huo Tian realize that her consolations did not seem to have any substantial effect. Instead, it felt like she was adding fuel to the fire. Hence, she could only shut up and look at Xi Cheng awkwardly.
How would Xi Cheng hold it against a junior like Huo Tian? He smiled and said, “It’s alright, you’re right. It’s indeed because of my mistakes that led to us being separated for nearly 20 years. Regardless of whether my wife and child will forgive me, I have to find them as soon as possible. This is also why I want to stand up quickly.”
Realizing that she hadn’t made Xi Cheng unhappy, Huo Tian immediately heaved a sigh of relief. She patted her chest and assured Xi Cheng, “Uncle Xi, don’t worry. I can’t guarantee anything else, but I can guarantee that you’ll be able to stand up!”
Xi Cheng laughed heartily. “That’s enough. When I can stand and walk normally, I’ll personally find my wife and my child, personally apologize to them, and ask for their forgiveness. Even if I don’t succeed in one or two attempts, I still have a long life ahead of me.”
When helping Xi Cheng try on the robotic exoskeleton, he needed to take off his outerwear and put on tight-fitting clothes. The entire process would inevitably reveal his physical defects. Therefore, other than Huo Tian and Bi Ying, who had to be present, Si Huan took his leave for a short while out of consideration.
Huo Tian and Bi Ying cooperated well. The two of them tend not to need to communicate in too many words. They only needed to use a few simple words or a gaze to understand each other’s meaning.
The two of them had young faces and looked no different from the other obedient children in school, but they were very interesting.
Perhaps to ease his anticipation and nervousness, Xi Cheng tried to find things to talk about. “Don’t be so serious. Let’s chat.”
Huo Tian helped Xi Cheng put on the exoskeleton equipment and said without looking up, “Sure, Uncle Xi. What would you like to talk about?”
Xi Cheng thought about it and asked, “Let’s talk about what people at your age like. I want to give the child some gifts.”
“Robots, mechas, or experimental equipment.” Huo Tian said what she liked and then looked at Bi Ying. “Bi Ying, do you have anything you like?”
Bi Ying was making adjustments to the data on his computer and said without looking up, “I’m about the same as you, but I also like computers with high specifications.”
Xi Cheng looked at the two geniuses and shook his head helplessly. “I was desperate to ask the two of you such a question. Your preferences would definitely be different from ordinary children.”
Huo Tian felt that her likes and taste had been questioned, so she said unhappily, “The things that we like are very normal. Moreover, being proactive and constantly trying to improve ourselves won’t have any negative influence. Anyway, I can’t understand why my classmates are so interested in celebrities and games.”
Bi Ying said indifferently, “They like all the things that waste their time, but they don’t like to learn..”
