In the neon of blue and purple, under the thick steel sky, at the forefront of this surge of data, lies the world post-tech revolution. It's also the dividing line between reality and illusion. Steel and flesh, past and future. In this place, the world outside and inside coexist. Everything in front of us feels like a wall of time within reach. The darkness is slowly creeping in. But hey, my friend, you gotta know, we can't just counter darkness with softness. Gotta use fire.
"So what were you doing, Master?" Qing Chen wondered.
"I went to pick out a car for you," Uncle Li Dong said, "It can't be too flashy, but it still needs good performance; it's not easy to choose. I'm quite old now, and it's actually my first time buying a car personally."
Qing Chen was puzzled, "What did those Time Travelers tell you, Master? Did they also say what a father needs to do?"
"Oh," Uncle Li Dong thought for a moment before replying, "They said quite a bit, and many people's opinions were different. Besides the majority saying a father needs to buy his son a house, some mentioned buying phones, some said cars."
Qing Chen nodded, "That does fit with the current state of the Outer World."
Uncle Li Dong gave him a look, "There's also the one who said a father needs to thrash his son; he said you have an old saying in the Outer World, 'Spare the rod, spoil the child.'"
Qing Chen: "???"
Who the heck told Uncle Li Dong that?!
