All of these watches were the same style for he didn’t know what type of watches the girls would like. To avoid the situation where they would all like the same one, he simply bought identical ones for each. The only difference was the straps; two were white and one was pink, because there were only black and gray options left.
"By the way, where are your aunt and they?" Tang Qing asked.
"They went shopping, and my dad, having nothing else to do, joined them." Qin Shiqi replied while helping her sister put on the watch and bracelet.
"Oh, you guys should take these back to your room to play with. Holding that teddy bear around is such a hassle," Tang Qing said.
"True, Shiyu, let’s go back to our room." After saying this, Qin Shiqi led Qin Shiyu back into their room and even closed the door. Tang Qing immediately knew that she was going to find clothes to match these new accessories.
Well, thinking of the photo-sharing maniac that Qin Shiqi was in the future, he didn’t find it surprising. Qin Shiyu’s WeChat and QQ accounts never had any posts, but Qin Shiqi posted all kinds of things every day. She even forced Tang Qing to like them, invade her space and do other embarrassing things. Having such a cousin, Tang Qing could only sigh helplessly.
Afterward, Tang Qing left the gifts for his uncle and aunt on the tea table in the living room, and put the rest back in his room. He would give them out when they visit next time.
Soon enough, Qin Yugang and his wife returned as well. Qin Shiqi, like one flaunting her treasure, took out the items Tang Qing bought for her and showed it in front of her uncle and aunt. His aunt naturally told Tang Qing off that he shouldn’t be wasting so much, but upon seeing these skincare products, she was really happy at heart. After all, what woman wouldn’t love these? She even asked Tang Qing how much he spent today.
Qin Yugang is a police officer, so even though he doesn’t directly control the prices of many items, he is very familiar with them. After all, he had been dealing with criminals, and the spoils among them naturally included some valuables. Thus, he also had quite the discerning eye.
Therefore, Tang Qing didn’t hide anything and gave them an approximate total of the costs. This was also one of the reasons he didn’t dare to buy more expensive items before, as he was afraid that Qin Yugang would see through him. But after a few days when his uncle comes back, things will be easier. With his uncle’s ’huge asset’ as cover, anything he overspent on could be blamed on him, this ’scapegoat’.
Upon hearing that these items cost nearly ten thousand, Qin Yugang and his auntie also felt heartache, but they couldn’t say much. If Tang Qing had only bought for their family, they would definitely insist on returning them or something similar. But since Tang Qing also bought for his parents and Lin Jiaxue’s family, and had the financial strength to do so, they didn’t say much more. After all, it’s the younger generation showing their heart towards the older generation, so they just happily accepted them.

Don Mueang international airport, Bangkok.
Don Mueang international airport is currently the only international airport in Bangkok, about twenty-five kilometers away from Bangkok city center. Another new airport is only set to be put into use in the following year.
"Please pay attention, all passengers. The flight from Bangkok to Singapore will be taking off soon..."
Flight information is continuously played in English and Thai.
At this time.
A little over twenty years old young man stepped out of airport terminal one, dressed simply. With an average appearance that would hardly stand out in crowd, a face devoid of any expression, he looked around indifferent, observing everything and everyone as if they were mere flora and fauna without any emotional attachment.
Many people around him were looking at him, and there was no way to avoid it. This man didn’t bring any luggage, not even a bag. Empty-handed, he looked odd in the crowd, like a rich young master who came for a vacation. But, judging by the way he dressed, it didn’t seem so.
This person was the robot sent to Bangkok to establish initial contact.
The robot’s vision swept across the surroundings, and all the information regarding people, billboards, and cars crazily rushed into Little Two’s database in the command room. As a direct result, the number for the information gathering project soared. It was nearly six to seven per second. Next, everything within its visual range was 3D-modeled in the command room.
It was the same back in Qingyan city. After a shift change, some robots have almost been in every corner of Qingyan city, big or small. The entire 3D model of Qingyan city could be viewed at will in the command room, which was convenient for planning safety measures. These processed images were extraordinarily clear, much better than the Map services available in the future world. To date, every nook and corner of Qingyan city had been thoroughly explored, and the hometown, the town, and the village had been updated once every ten days.
If combined with military satellite use in the future, well, Tang Qing couldn’t think of any other uses for the time being.
The robot got into a random taxi outside the airport terminal.
"Bangkok city center." After getting into the car, the robot said calmly to the driver.
"Okay, were you here to see someone off?" The driver turned and glanced at the robot in the back seat. The fluent Thai made him instinctively think he was a local because he hadn’t brought anything. Based on his judgment, eight or nine times out of ten, it was usually to see someone off.
"Mmhmm." The robot replied indifferently while looking at the scenery to the left and right, and the command room was frantically modeling the area.
"Did you send a friend or a relative?" The middle-aged driver asked again, being talkative is a universal skill of taxi drivers worldwide. Many times, it’s not about getting close, but it’s easy to get sleepy when you drive and sit all day, and talking helps to refresh. 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘱𝘶𝑏.𝘤𝘰𝑚
"Don’t ask too many questions." Four icy cold words came out of the robot’s mouth again. It wasn’t interested in chatting with this driver. There were more effective ways to gather information planned in the database.
