Lazily Yours.

Chapter 493: Aden and Bobo

Five years Later

"Archy Aden Shen!" Shen Qui raised his voice when she saw the mess inside his office. "What is this?"

"Dad! I am glad that you are here… "Aden, the young boy who resembled Shen Qui, run towards his father. "I am here to surprise you."

Seeing the mess inside his office, Shen Qui couldn't help but wonder what surprise was he talking about.

"Today is dad's birthday. I have a gift!" Aden was smiling sweetly. He ignored all the pieces of paper that were scattered on the floor as he ran towards his father.

"A gift?" Shen Qui shoved his hands into his pockets. This child resembled him, but his attitude was just like her mother's. He wondered what 'amazing idea' did the child came up with this time.

"Bobo! Come here…" Aden stood in front of his father as a mechanical sound echoed inside the office.

"Bobo? A pet?"

"You can treat him like a pet father." Excitement shone in Aden's eyes as he looked at the circular robot that was rolling towards them.

"What is this?" Shen Qui sat on the couch and stared at the circular robot. "The design looked like some vacuum. Is this— "

"No father. I just thought a circular design is perfect for Bobo. It looked like a vacuum because I thought it would make it look more low key. People would think it was a normal vacuum until you ask it to do something."

"Ask it to do something?"

"Yes. Just like this. Bobo… play Bach - Partita No. 2, Chaconne!"

[Playing… Bach - Partita No. 2, Chaconne.]

[Volume optimized for background]

Shen Qui widened his eyes. Right now, Ai technology that could perform this is very popular in the market. Phones have this capability too.

"Bobo can do everything. Like play music, turn the lights on and off, opened the garage door, lower and increase the temperature. It can also do things like locating a file…"

"Aden?"

"Yes, father?"

"Did he ask it to locate a file? Is that why my office is a mess?"

"Ah?" The child blinked at him before he shamelessly beamed. "As expected of father. You are indeed the smartest." He turned his head towards the small robot and beamed. "Bobo… who is the most handsome man in this world?"

[Naturally, the most handsome man can only be Master's father, Mr. Shen Qui.]

"Bobo is really adorable. How about the sweetest man in this world?"

[Naturally, the sweetest man can only be Master's father, Mr. Shen Qui.]

"Smart Bobo!"

"Aden?"

"Hm? Yes, father?"

"Are you trying to divert my attention from the mess inside the room?"

Aden frowned. "I don't understand what father means."

"Aden… what are you looking for?"

Aden met his father's eyes. "I'm looking for my enrollment form. Mother said you have it. But it's not inside this room. Perhaps it's in the master's bedroom?"

Shen Qui was speechless. This young man was exactly like Lyca! "Why do you need it?"

"Naturally, I want to destroy it. I don't want to go to school!"

"…" Shen Qui heard stories about Lyca from her father. He said that Lyca didn't want to go to school too. But she started acting this way after she had an accident when she was a child. Obviously, they were able to force Lyca to go to school, and they thought that was the end of it.

Oh, well… Lyca did something else.

She showed off how brilliant she was, prompting her teachers to recommend her for higher grades. In the end, she graduated from college at a really young age. She made formulas for perfumes to earn some money, and spent the rest of her teenage years doing random stuff.

Even Lyca's father said that Lyca didn't like to go out and would spend days eating and sleeping and reading.

"Did you ask your mother about going to school?" he asked.

"Yes."

"And?" Shen Qui knew that Aden was a really honest young boy. In fact, he was too honest. Sometimes it was really annoying for other people. After all, not many people in this world can actually deal with the truth.

"She asked me to create a gift that would empress father."

Shen Qui wanted to slap his own face. Lyca didn't even explain why going to school is very important. She just asked her child to create something for him. "And so… you decided to create Bobo?"

"Yes, father. Bobo is the smartest just like father."

Shen Qui sighed. "Why don't you want to go to school?"

"I don't like kids."

"Aden, you are a kid too."

"Yes. But I don't like other kids."

"Why don't you like other kids? How could you like someone without even knowing them?"

"Kids are troublesome."

"…" Before Shen Qui could say anything, Aden decided to explain himself.

"Let me elaborate. Uncle Tang Jinyi's daughter, Tang Hui is an example of these troublesome kids. Tang Hui is only a few months younger than me, but she still cries every time her father and mother leave for work. Her mother and father both worked in the military. It is natural for them to work all the time. However, Tang Hui doesn't understand this."

"Aden…"

"Let me continue, father. When I was three, I remember mother and father leaving for your… vacation. Auntie Ruyi said you are leaving to make another baby. You left for almost a month. All those times, I never shed a tear. Why can't Tang Hui do that? This only means that she is too troublesome."

"Secondly, Tang Hui always cries every time she wanted something. She cries if she wants a new toy, she wants if she wants a new dress. She keeps on crying. Too troublesome."

"…"

"When I want something, I just tell mother what I want and she would give me something to memorize. Like the chemical table of elements. After memorizing that, mother bought me the latest robot from X Company. Father... as you can see... most kids are not like that. They don't understand the concept of working hard to get what you want."

"..." Concept of working hard? Shen Qui didn't know what to say. Clearly, Lyca was just being lazy to reason with her own son.

So she gave him some impossible task that is not something a five-year-old boy can do.
