I really don't want to date a girl addicted to the internet!

“But Cheng Fei still prefers sporty cars, right?” The girl’s bright eyes reflected his profile.

"Most boys would like that, right?" The boy nodded tentatively.

"Why not just buy one? It would only cost a few million." Nagasaki Asuna said earnestly.

"It's possible, but unnecessary. Besides, the company is short of money right now. If the financing isn't enough, I'll have to pay for it myself," the young man said casually.

Although Isena's investments have generated astonishing compound interest, and she has accumulated a considerable amount of money during this period, it is still far from enough to meet the actual needs of technology.

"It seems so. I hope everything goes well." The girl nodded obediently, then thought for a moment, "In that case, we don't need to pay for the cat's upbringing. We don't need that much anyway."

"Idiot, of course the money will keep coming." The boy shook his head.

"To Cheng Fei, is Nana something that can be bought with money?" Nagasaki Asuna blinked, looking innocent and bewildered.

"No, that's not it. You've always been mine, and you'll be mine forever without me having to pay you." The young man's nonchalant tone was as if stating a fact. "I give you money because I like the feeling, and I want you to be happier."

The girl's body trembled slightly, her legs pressed tightly together, her pupils completely focused on the boy's figure. "Hey, Cheng Fei, do you like the feeling of keeping Nana as a sugar daddy?"

"I like it quite a bit." The boy nodded.

"Nana also likes the feeling of being taken care of by Cheng Fei." The girl stumbled, her chest heaving, swallowed hard, and her eyes became moist and misty.

"I also need to meet an acquaintance today," the boy added.

"Hmm, Nana can do whatever Cheng Fei asks her to do..." the girl murmured to herself, her head lowered.

The boy paused for a moment, then glanced at her face and found that the girl was staring intently at his legs, motionless as if she were lost in thought and her mind was wandering.

"Nana, what are you doing?" the boy asked, emphasizing his words.

Nagasaki Asuna snapped out of her daze, shook her head vigorously, and said with an innocent look, "Nana-kun didn't do anything!"

"I'll deal with you when we get back, just bear with it for now." The boy kept driving.

"Okay!" The girl nodded quickly, a suppressed urgency hidden on her face. "The kitten will be obedient and bear with it while Cheng Fei takes care of things."

"It's hopeless," the boy sighed.

During this conversation, the two arrived at the headquarters of Real Tech.

……

In the small room used for receiving guests, the woman leaned against the sofa, a cigarette between her fingers, motionless and lost in thought.

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Sun Ling, holding a folder, peeked in and whispered, "President Cheng has arrived."

The woman sat up a little straighter and extinguished her cigarette in the ashtray.

A tall, handsome young man walked in with his hands in his pockets, followed closely by a sweet girl with long, coffee-colored hair.

Cheng Fei sat down with his hands in his pockets, looked at the woman and smiled, "Sister Yan, it's been a long time."

Looking at the two people in front of him who had transformed and were completely different from before, Yan Nan had a complicated expression. "Long time no see, young man, and Asuna."

Nagasaki Asuna looked at her former manager, who sat obediently next to the boy without saying a word.

890. Nagasaki Asuna asked Cheng Fei to drive her home.

This was the first time Cheng Fei had met Yan Nan since he forcibly bought Nagasaki Asuna from Hummingbird Media.

"I saw on Sister Yan's WeChat Moments that she resigned. What happened?" The young man looked at her nonchalantly.

Yan Nan paused for a moment, took out a new cigarette, lit it, took a drag, and slowly exhaled the smoke while gazing into the distance. "There's no particular reason. After helping the company earn that breach of contract fee from Asuna, I was transferred back to headquarters, but I was ostracized by my superiors and couldn't find any promising new artists, so I resigned."

"Well, that's really bad luck." Cheng Fei nodded casually.

Asuna Nagasaki blinked but offered no comment.

"So you called me here for what reason?" Yan Nan looked at the two of them.

She received a message from the young man shortly after posting her job search on her WeChat Moments, saying that he had only arrived here today.

“It’s simple, we just need an experienced agent.” Cheng Fei interlaced his fingers, leaned forward, and looked at her.

Yan Nan was taken aback. "Asuna is planning to debut again? Or do you want to debut?"

"Neither," the boy shook his head. "It's someone else, I suppose."

His hesitant tone made Yan Nan even more confused. "Who?"

"Let Alice in." Cheng Fei looked towards the door and raised his voice.

Sun Ling's voice could be faintly heard outside the glass door, "Alice, hurry up, President Cheng is calling you..."

"Yes! Alice will be here soon..." Then came a childish, slightly shy female voice.

Under Yan Nan's curious gaze, the door was pushed open. The next second, Yan Nan froze, and the cigarette between her fingers fell onto the coffee table.

A robot, whose height was no different from that of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old human girl, walked in with natural and smooth movements. She placed her hands on her lower abdomen, faced Yan Nan, and bowed slightly. "Hello, I am Alice, the prototype of the general-purpose humanoid robot developed by Real Technology. Please take care of me!"

Yan Nan stared blankly at the robot, then peered behind it, as if to confirm that what was in front of him was truly a machine and not a real person in disguise.

"What...is this?" Yan Nan turned to look at Cheng Fei, her neck feeling stiff and rusty.

"She's an artist who's going to debut, and we want you to be her manager and train her to become an idol." The young man said seriously.

"Alice is ready to become an idol!" The prototype clenched its fist at its chest, and the joints hummed with the sound of motors.

"Let robots debut as idols? What can robots do?" Yan Nan felt like her mind was in chaos.

"Alice doesn't know anything yet, but Alice will study hard!" The prototype said earnestly, even though her head couldn't show any expression yet, that's the feeling she had.

after a while.

"...That's basically it. What do you think, Sister Yan?" Cheng Fei spent some time explaining his plan.

"We can give it a try, but I can't guarantee the results. After all, the concept of robot idols is too advanced." Yan Nan hesitated before continuing.

"Just raise her as a human being and do your best." Cheng Fei nodded seriously.

Yan Nan hesitated for a moment, took a deep breath, and slowly nodded, "I understand. Okay, I accept."

"Very good." Cheng Fei clapped his hands and called out towards the door, "Sister Ling."

Sun Ling, who was waiting, immediately came in carrying a folder.

"Sister Yan has agreed to let her join the company. Help her with the formalities and then show her around the environment," the young man said, getting up.

"Alice, keep up the good work." He said this, then put his hands in his pockets and walked towards the door.

"Alice, do your best~" Nagasaki Asuna followed closely behind, turning back to smile at the prototype.

"Yes! Teacher, and the inspector... no, Asuna-neechan." The prototype's tone was full of loyalty.

As soon as they finished speaking, the two figures disappeared from Yan Nan's sight.

Sun Ling stepped forward with a folder in her arms, revealing a professional smile. "Let me reintroduce myself. My name is Sun Ling, and I am the company's administrative supervisor. Welcome to RealTech."

"My name is Xia Meng, and I'm an administrative assistant," a cute, round-faced girl peeked out from behind.

Sun Ling turned around when she heard the voice, and smiled, "Xia Meng, what are you doing here instead of at your post?"

"I'm just delivering some things and taking a look, Sister Ling." Xia Meng shrank her neck as she carried a bag of materials.

……

Putting aside Alice's debut plans for the moment, Cheng Fei and Nagasaki Asuna returned the way they came.

"Nana".

"Ok?"

What would you like to eat for lunch?

"The cat wants to eat... Cheng Fei."

"..."

"Is it not allowed?"

"Vixen, come here."

"Waaah!"

……

A new week begins as Cheng Fei is busy pursuing real-world technology.

In the morning, the boy decided to try taking the bus to school, something he hadn't done in a long time.

I thought I would run into Shen Xi and Nagasaki Asuna, but I didn't.

After getting off the bus, he mingled with the other Yinghua students and walked up the gentle slope at the school gate together.

"Cheng Fei, good morning!"

"Cheng Fei, why didn't you drive today?"

A familiar girl popped out of the back seat of a private car and greeted him warmly, which the boy responded to one by one.

The sound of a bicycle chain suddenly came from behind him, accompanied by exaggerated "heave-ho" sounds.

A tall, muscular boy with a pompadour rode up on a bicycle.

"Isn't this Cheng Fei? Where's your Paramel?" Chen Hao got off the car and pushed it, looking surprised.

“Palamera?” The boy glanced at him.

"Anyway, it's that silver one." Chen Hao gestured.

"I returned it to Lin Xuanqi." The boy slung the bag over his shoulder, put one hand in his pocket, and looked ahead.

"You returned it? You've finally met your match!" Chen Hao laughed as if he'd heard something hilarious. After a second, he seemed to realize it wasn't so funny, so he coughed to composed himself and then stroked his chin thoughtfully. "Lin Xuanqi wouldn't be so stingy as to ask you for it, so you returned it voluntarily? I didn't expect you to have such backbone. I acknowledge that!"

"It doesn't matter how you do it," the boy shook his head nonchalantly.

"In that case, how about you buy a bicycle to commute like I did? You can also use it as a form of exercise. You should be able to ride one, right?" Chen Hao put his arm around his shoulder, his eyebrows dancing with excitement.

"A bicycle?" Cheng Fei glanced at his bike; it was probably a mountain bike, and judging from the details, it was quite expensive.

“That’s right, cycling is definitely the best form of exercise in the world besides swimming. If you don’t want to spend money, you don’t need to buy a bike as good as mine.” Chen Hao said, casually smoothing his hair, his tone becoming exaggerated. “Well, it’s true that riding a good bike is really fun, especially one like mine with advanced electronic gears and a full carbon fiber frame, it’s simply a pleasure.”

"All carbon?" The boy glanced sideways.

“That’s right, carbon fiber. It’s a cutting-edge material of the 21st century, balancing strength and lightness.” Chen Hao lifted the car off the ground to show it off, like a car dealership salesman. “Don’t let its size fool you, the whole car only weighs a little over ten kilograms. Isn’t that amazing?”

Cheng Fei thought for a moment, "Since it's for training, wouldn't it be better to go for something a little heavier?"

"Uh, well, you also need to consider shock absorption, comfort, road feel..." Chen Hao's boastful expression froze, and various terms popped out of his mouth. Finally, he forced himself to calm down and put on a serious face, "In short, if you have a good car, you can also have a good time while exercising! Got it?"

"I see." The boy nodded in agreement.

"Anyway, the world of bicycles is very interesting. You should buy one too. Maybe the girls at Yinghua will be more interested in you if they see you riding one." Chen Hao lowered his voice.

"I'll think about it, but even if I don't ride it, they're already interested in me enough." The boy sighed, a little helpless.

"You brat?!" Chen Hao stared at him with wide eyes, looking like he wanted to yell at him but couldn't find the words.

Just then, a delicate voice, suppressing its excitement, rang out behind them, "Brother...!"

The two turned around and saw Ai Kato running up to them.

The young girl, dressed in the Sakura school uniform, had her delicate legs encased in white pantyhose. Her sweet features and expressionless face brightened when she saw Cheng Fei, but frowned when she saw Chen Hao, and quickly hid behind him.

"I'm sorry to have bothered you, goodbye!" Chen Hao noticed the subtle change in the girl's expression. She looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle with a hint of sadness on her face. She shouted and rode off on her bicycle.

Cheng Fei watched his back as he climbed the hill effortlessly, realizing that the carbon fiber body did indeed have its merits.

"Good morning, brother." Kato Ai, carrying a shoulder bag in both hands, quietly moved closer to the boy, their shoulders barely touching. The girl's heart raced, and her small earlobes, hidden in her flowing black hair, blushed.

"Good morning, Aiyi." The boy smiled at her, seemingly unaware of her little gesture.

"Ugh..." The young girl met his gaze, then hurriedly lowered her head, letting out a delicate, cat-like whimper.

"Is Ai getting used to living in Academy City?"

"It's...it's alright...brother, would you like to come to my house? There are...very cute kittens there." Kato Ai's eyes darted around.

"I'll definitely do it another day," the boy said, maintaining his smile.

"Hmm...!" The young girl nodded vigorously, then thought for a moment and said in an even softer voice, "Actually, I also... want to go to my brother's house once."
