Start with a blacksmith shop.

Li Yun glanced at the incoming call number, then turned to look at her home.

When she answered the phone, she heard her mother's voice coming from the other end.

"Xiaoyun, since our friend is here, let's not let him freeze downstairs. Let him come upstairs for a drink of water!"

The old lady hung up the phone immediately after speaking, without giving her a chance to refute.

Looking at the phone that had already been hung up, he looked up at Li Zhenhua.

She said somewhat shyly, "That was my mom on the phone just now, you heard it too."

"Let us go up, what do you think we should do?"

Hearing Li Yun's words, he was overjoyed, but he kept his expression unchanged.

"Since your mother has seen me, why don't you come in and have a seat at your house?"

"Then come with me!"

After saying that, he told the security guard at the gate, and the small gate opened.

After starting the motorcycle, Li Yun got on the back seat without any hesitation.

Under Li Yun's direction, the car drove all the way to the building where Li Yun lived.

"You'll be my boyfriend when we go upstairs in a bit, so please be my shield! I'll repay you handsomely later!"

Li Yun clasped her hands together and pleaded with Li Zhenhua, who nodded in response.

As the two arrived upstairs, Li Yun was about to open the door and lead him inside when...

Li Zhenhua suddenly stopped and looked at Li Yun.

"Since this is my first visit, shouldn't I have brought something? It's a bit impolite of me to come empty-handed!"

He was about to turn and walk downstairs when Li Yun grabbed him with lightning speed.

She had been observing Li Zhenhua's movements closely, and she knew that Li Zhenhua was showing signs of backing down.

Li Zhenhua was also flustered at this moment, even though he had come to chase after the other party.

But given the current situation, he had the will but not the courage, and backed down at the crucial moment.

Just as the two were about to remain locked in a stalemate, the door in front of them opened.

A kind-looking middle-aged woman appeared before Li Zhenhua, smiling as she reached out and took his hand.

Before he could even react to what was happening, his mother pulled him into the house and set him on the sofa, where a cup of tea was placed in front of him.

Across from him was Chestnut's father, who was holding his teacup and staring intently at him.

"Hello, Uncle!"

After he greeted him, Mr. Li immediately smiled and asked him a series of questions.

"Hello young man, how old are you this year?"

What zodiac sign is it?

What time is the birth date and time (Bazi) calculated?

Where do you work?

When did you meet Xiaoyun?

What do you usually like to do?

When do you plan to marry Xiaoyun?

When do you want to have children?

He was already quite nervous, but hearing Chestnut's father's rapid-fire questions made him even more nervous.

He now knows what it's like to be a prospective son-in-law's first visit.

Li Yun was sitting next to him, and when she heard her father ask her those questions, she immediately became a little coquettish, especially with the last few questions.

"Dad, if you keep doing this, I'm taking my men out!"

The situation didn't become any more awkward afterward; it just maintained the feeling of being onlookers.

Li Yun felt a mix of shyness and composure.

I'm a little embarrassed, but I feel that being with Li Zhenhua is actually pretty good.

The good news is that I won't have to be pressured by my parents to go on blind dates anymore.

Under the watchful eyes of the elderly couple, Li Zhenhua's role as a shield was quite successful.

Moreover, he felt this was a pretty good feeling, and his next step was to try to make it a reality.

After having dinner at the Li family's house, he took his leave as it was getting late.

Under the care of the elderly couple, Li Yun was forcefully pushed out of the house.

When Li Yun looked at the tightly closed door and then at Li Zhenhua standing beside her,

The man next to him had a big smile on his face.

"What are you laughing at? Haven't you ever seen an old person get anxious?"

Li Yun stepped on his foot and turned to walk towards the elevator.

Watching her graceful figure disappear into the distance, I looked down at my feet.

"Luckily, I was wearing closed-toe shoes, otherwise that kick would have hurt a lot."

While thinking, he followed in Li Yun's footsteps.

"Where are you going later? Come visit me. I'll definitely have time tomorrow. Putting everything else aside, you've seen my parents' attitude."

They're practically begging me not to go home tonight, do you know how that feels?

He replied to Li Yun with a slightly teasing tone.

"Oh dear, what are we going to do? You have nowhere to go tonight, don't you?"

How about I kindly let you stay for the night?

"Pah! You wish!"

The two laughed and joked as the elevator car arrived at the first floor.

I went to my motorcycle and started it.

"I'm staying at a stylish hotel not far from your place tonight. Remember to call me when you wake up tomorrow, and I'll come over to visit!"

Li Yun nodded as if possessed, then, remembering something, said to him again.

"Perfect timing! I also have something to discuss with you tomorrow. See you then!"

After saying goodbye to Li Yun, he returned to the hotel and did nothing else but enter the virtual laboratory once again to study the production of the watch.

However, after separating from him, Li Yun returned home and, under the watchful eyes of her parents, hid in her room.

After she returned to her room, she remembered the accommodation Li Zhenhua had mentioned.

"This is a stylish hotel. It seems so familiar; I feel like I've heard of it somewhere before."

I haven't been home for almost two years, so why do I feel so familiar with this hotel? That's strange!

As I was thinking, I opened my phone and started searching for this hotel.

She had just typed the word "classy" when the smart search showed her the option "Haizhou Classy Love Hotel".

That night, Li Zhenhua acted as usual.

But for Li Yun, it was a more agonizing night. She spent the whole night lost in thought and didn't fall asleep until dawn.

When her alarm rang, she immediately got dressed and ran to the hotel where Li Zhenhua was.

Not knowing what she was worried about, she spent the whole night worrying. When she arrived at the hotel, she went straight to the waiter and asked him.

The final answer was that the hotel was originally a love hotel, but due to low occupancy rates, it was converted into a regular hotel.

Knowing this, Li Yun felt relieved and tried her best to cover up her behavior just now.

They deceive themselves into thinking that this is out of concern for their friend, that they are worried that their friend will go astray.

After realizing it was a misunderstanding, Li Yun felt much more at ease.

Arriving at the door of Li Zhenhua's room, they knocked.

This was another fruitful night for Li Zhenhua.

That night he designed a clock, yes, a clock, not a wristwatch.

A clock is at least thirty times larger than a watch.

Large means ample space.

Manufacturing in any industry starts with the simple and gradually transitions to the complex.

This is how I chose a watch: I first followed my own ideas and continued the design of the watch to create a timepiece.

Once he has the ability to manufacture clocks on his own, it should be a simple matter for him to work on watch design.

He was in the laboratory, looking at the clock blueprints he had designed, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Just as he was congratulating himself on the clock he had designed, a knocking sound came from the void of the laboratory.
