Chapter 344: Cubes in Memory

The little girl grew up slowly.

Her life was very rich.

Her father was the CEO of Yuanxin Technology, and her mother's family also controlled more than half of the technology industry in Liming City. It could be said that they were a strong combination.

However, the little girl had never seen her father smile.

He always had a stern face, spoke very little, and always looked worried.

Her mother seemed to be doting on her to make up for her father's neglect.

"Where did Dad go again?"

There were only mother and daughter at home all year round, and the little girl often asked about her father's whereabouts at the beginning.

"He has a lot of urgent and important things to deal with, and he has no time to accompany us. You have to understand Dad."

"Dad is busy with work and has heavy responsibilities. Sometimes he will ignore us. This is a matter of course."

The mother often told the little girl similar truths. After many times, the little girl no longer asked the same question.

"Mom, why are all my toys these blocks?"

One day, the little girl looked at her mother and asked very seriously.

Since she could remember, she had played with all these blocks of different sizes. Although they could be piled up into various magnificent buildings and various shapes, she was indeed a little bored.

Hearing this question, the woman was silent for a long time.

"Just think that the blocks can bring you luck."

After saying such a strange thing, the woman wiped her eyes and hurried out.

"What does this mean?" The little girl didn't understand.

A few days later, she told this to her playmate, Aunt Lin Nian.

Aunt Lin Nian is the sister of the little girl's mother according to seniority, so she should call her aunt.

"Auntie, why don't you give me other toys?"

Lin Nian's face was full of black lines, and he gently knocked on the little girl's head:

"How many times have I told you not to call me aunt! Call me Lin Nian."

"Okay, Aunt Lin Nian."

The girl next to her could only sigh helplessly when she heard this name.

She pinched the little girl's chubby face.

"When you were in school, did the teacher teach you about the relics?"

The little girl nodded blankly: "Yes."

"It's good that you have been taught." Lin Nian turned around and looked around, then sneaked up to the little girl, whispered in her ear.

"I heard from my family that your father has a curse."

"Curse? What is that?" The little girl didn't understand.

"It's something brought out from the abyss, which may be the price of some relics, or the ability mark of some creature. It is on your father, causing your family to have to abide by certain rules."

"Rules? I think there are very few rules at home..." the little girl argued.

"Not enough!" Lin Nian's voice suddenly became louder, and he felt bad again, so he lowered his voice again.

"Do you know how strange your family looks to outsiders?"

"Such a large manor, but the gate is closed all day long. The manor is gloomy and guests are not allowed to visit. There is no housekeeper or servant. Even the robots used are the lowest-end ones without any intelligence."

"And your father always has a stern face, as if everyone owes him money. I heard from my family that your father is like a robot in the company, working all day long."

"Since your mother got married, she has been staying in this gloomy manor all day long. I don't know what she is doing. She used to feel uncomfortable if she didn't go shopping for a day."

At this point, Lin Nian hit his thigh angrily.

The little girl was still unconvinced and continued to argue: "Mom is playing with me."

"What are you playing?"

"Playing with blocks, building houses, building small animals..."

As she spoke, the little girl's voice became smaller and smaller, and she lost her confidence.

"What else?"

"I don't know." The little girl shook her head. Most of the time, she played by herself, and her mother didn't know where she ran away.

Seeing the little girl's frustrated expression, Lin Nian also realized that her words might be a bit harsh.

She touched the little girl's head and comforted her: "Maybe it's just what other people said, don't take it seriously."

Looking at the little girl's innocent look, Lin Nian's eyes became more compassionate.

"Won't you get bored playing with cubes all the time?"

The little girl shook her head.

She took out a small cube from her pocket, and with a flick of her little hand, the cube began to spin on her fingertips, steadily.

She pushed with her fingertips again, and the cube fell steadily on the chair, and the rotation was still very stable. She clenched her two little hands to cover the cube, and then opened her hands and divided them into two sides.

"Auntie Lin Nian, guess where the cube is?"

Lin Nian widened her eyes and pointed to the little girl's left hand.

The little girl spread out her left hand, and it was empty.

"No." She shook her head.

"Is it here?" Lin Nian couldn't wait to pry open the little girl's right hand, and it was still empty.

"Where did you go?" Lin Nian was extremely surprised.

"There." The little girl raised her hand and pointed to a tree in the distance.

On the branch, there was a small cube, shining with metallic light under the sun.

Lin Nian stared at the small cube on the branch in shock, with a look of disbelief on his face.

"How did you do it?"

"Find me another toy, and I'll tell you."

Lin Nian laughed when he heard this request.

"Of course." She rummaged in her bag and soon found an exquisite robot model.

"I made this during class, take a look, do you like it?"

When the little girl saw the robot model, her eyes lit up instantly and she stretched out her hand.

"Tell me first, how did you do it." Lin Nian retracted his hand and pointed to the square on the branch of the tree.

Seeing this, the little girl took out an identical cube from her pocket.

"That's it."

As she spoke, the square turned up in her hand, and sometimes it came to the back of her hand, sometimes to the palm of her hand, and sometimes it was hidden in the shadow between her fingers.

"When you raise your hand, just hide the cube so that you don't see it. The one on the branch of the tree has been there for a long time. It was accidentally thrown up when I was playing before, and it has always been there. Over there……"

After listening to the little girl's explanation, Lin Nian suddenly realized.

She also breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that the little girl would be contaminated by some relic's ability.

"It's just magic, not magic."

Thinking of this, Lin Nian handed the robot model in his hand to Li Luo.

"I made them according to the shape of your father's company's second-generation intelligent machinery. I like this series very much. What I like most is that their lower parts are like spiders. They are very special..."

Lin Nian introduced with shining eyes.

The little girl also held the robot and listened carefully to Lin Nian's introduction.

Seeing Lin Nian's excitement, the little girl thought for a while, then rummaged in her pocket, and found a clean square.

"This is my favorite too, I'll trade it with you."

She put the cube into Lin Nian's hand.

Holding the cube, Lin Nian was very surprised.

"I gave it to you, you don't have to exchange it with me for anything else..."

The little girl shook her head stubbornly and held up the robot model.

"I got Aunt Lin Nian's favorite thing, and I have to pay for it."

"This is the price."
