Chapter 98: Installation
, relieved that no one was scolding Lu Kuo.It's true that blood is thicker than water. After the siblings finished fighting and vented their anger, their moods improved and they didn't hold any grudge...Do such minor things even need supervision
Shoutinglan acted as if he were nonexistent.
With Zhu Yu'an present, engineers and construction workers naturally worked with more attention to detail. With Zhu Yu'an providing meticulous guidance on every aspect, they thought of everything imaginable and unimaginable. In summary, after the installation of hardware and software, it was incredibly user-friendly and perfectly suited for home habits, truly flawless.
After installing for a whole day, until the evening, the engineers and workers finally finished the work and left. As they were leaving, they were even more puzzled: Where was President Zhu But they didn't dare to say anything or ask.
Only Shu Tinglan and Zhuo Yu'an remained in the house, standing face to face.
Zuo Yu'an was the first to break the silence.
“I'll help you clean up.”
It is indeed a bit dirty. The bedroom curtains, the bathroom, the kitchen, and the balcony, all of them have newly laid circuits, so everywhere is covered in dust.
"No need, I'll ask Auntie to come clean tomorrow."
Well, where will you stay tonight
"Go to Lin Zhi's house," she said. She had a key to his place, all you had to do was say hello. The guy had been on business trips in Huacao City recently, trying to convince Fu Shanyi to join Zhuoyuan Technology. She said that since she got paid, she would definitely get the job done.
"Alright, I'll take you there in a bit. Give me your phone first so I can download an app for you."
Zhuoyuan Technology's products are already quite complete, with their own ecosystem. After downloading the software, it's like having a smart housekeeper that can operate all home appliances with one click.
After downloading it for her, Zhuo Yu'an said:
“Come here, I'll teach you how to use it.”
Shu Tinglan thought, she wasn't stupid, she would read the instructions and use them herself.
"I'll teach you everything in just ten minutes. You can read the instructions yourself, for an hour or two"
For Shu Tinglan, who has always believed that time is money, of course he chose to accept his ten-minute explanation.
Zhuo Yu'an was like an employee at a department store, very dedicated. He started from the smart lock at the door and explained everything to her.
"On the software, this icon represents a smart lock, which is a five-in-one type. It supports facial recognition, fingerprint recognition, and password recognition. You can directly operate to close or open the door on your phone. Even if you're not at home, you can also video chat with visitors."
Shutinglan looked at him with disdain. It's very common, not some high technology.
Zuo Yu'an is right, indeed. Every product on the market has similar counterparts, but building a complete ecosystem loop is the core competitive advantage.
This bathroom introduces a range of functions, differing from traditional setups. It offers various modes: morning wash mode, bathing mode, and makeup mode. It automatically records user habits and adjusts lighting and water temperature accordingly. Additionally, it features an automatic disinfection function for clothing.
As for how to use the fully automated kitchen features, Shu Tinglan felt it was unnecessary to listen. The refrigerator's display would automatically generate a three-meal menu based on her various health data.
"The premise is that there needs to be food in the refrigerator." Her refrigerator was bare, a master chef couldn't cook without rice, let alone an automatic dishwasher or a garbage disposal.
"Yeah, that works." Zhu Yu'an hung up the phone and turned off the kitchen light.
The living room is mainly about adjusting the lighting, turning the air conditioner on and off, operating the fresh air system, and controlling smart voice devices.
In short, she just needs one device to operate all the household appliances, which is very convenient and lazy.
"If you have any questions, please feel free to call customer service or ask me at any time."
He patiently finished teaching her, but he didn't know how much she absorbed. She just nodded to everything he said, acting like she couldn't wait for him to finish and get out of there.
Unfortunately, it is impossible.
"Let's eat first, and after that I'll take you to Lin Zhixuan's house."
Shu Tinglan naturally refused, she didn't want to have any further dealings with him. The project was completed, and after leaving Zhuo Yuan Technology, as a small lawyer, the later negotiations and delivery were irrelevant to her. She was now eager to find new projects.
But Zhuo Yu'an was not easy to get rid of. He insisted on taking her out for a meal and sending her to Lin Zhifan's house.
Shu Tinglan intentionally chose a small restaurant right at the entrance of the residential complex, with only six small tables. The kitchen was filled with the sounds of sizzling and clattering as chefs stir-fried dishes, sending plumes of smoke out into the open.
The proprietress, while taking orders and calling out to customers, would wipe her apron and dash in and out of the kitchen, carrying dishes to the tables. To be honest, Shu Tinglan rarely came by, only stopping for a cup of soy milk on his way to work in the mornings. Otherwise, he wouldn't stay even for a few minutes because the whole place was filled with the smell of oil smoke – it was unbearable.
She purposely brought Zhuo Yu'an here so he could experience the "human fireworks" firsthand.
To my surprise, Zhu Yu'an remained quite composed. He didn't show any disgust as he found a spot to sit down and even used a napkin to wipe the remaining stains from the table. His demeanor and bearing were completely out of place in this environment, yet he sat there with an air of nonchalance.
I ordered a few dishes, and the taste was surprisingly delicious. No wonder that even with this kind of environment, the surrounding businesses have changed waves after waves, but this restaurant can still stand firm.
The portion of the dish was large, but both of them had small appetites. However, in order not to waste it, they both ate it with difficulty. When they walked out of the restaurant, Shu Tinglan felt full and couldn't stand anymore.
"Want to take a walk"
"Okay."
He stopped talking and just walked aimlessly along the streetlights. After passing a crossroad, he happened to arrive at Lin Zhifan's residential complex.
"Here you go."
Shu Tinglan had greeted Lin Zhichen, but she hadn't responded. So Shu Tinglan went straight in with her key. Zhuo Yu'an stood by the door, intending to leave after she closed it.
Shu Tinglan's steps at the doorway suddenly stopped, then she blushed in embarrassment. Lin Zhichao was currently in the living room with a man, engaging in some kind of activity. The overlapping figures also looked up in shock at her, completely speechless....
It's freaking awful, why did she have to see that...
"What's wrong" Yu An, who was behind him, asked, seemingly oblivious.
"It's fine." Shu Tinglan quickly shut the door and pulled Zhuo Yu'an toward the elevator.
"Is Lin Zhihao at home"
"Hmm."
Zhuo Yu'an saw her face flushed and she looked frightened. He probably guessed what scene she had stumbled upon, so he reached out to brush her hair and comforted her.
"It's okay."
Actually, it wasn't a big deal. She was being self-aware and didn't look further down. It was just a blurry image anyway. Besides, she's not unfamiliar with Lin Zhixuan's appearance. It's just that it was a little awkward.
Right now, standing on the side of this busy road, I'm starting to regret bringing Zhuo Yu'an to that little shop earlier. I'm covered in the smell of cooking oil and want to go home and shower, but the bathroom is out of commission. Lin Zhi's place is also not an option, so I guess I have to stay at a hotel.ng lady today, they would be asking for trouble.As a man, one should be able to bend and stretch. So, he immediately put on a new smile and politely introduced himself to Lu Yaoyao."Hello, sister-in-l...
