I’m Not Going to Be Bullied By a Girl-Chapter 856: Electronics Market
Chapter 856: Electronics Market
Dr. Yu did emergency on Xing Xing’s injured legs and even asked him if he wanted to switch his leg with a titanium alloy robot leg.
Ai Mi had a lot of suspicions: Xing Xing could have been the offender and it was possible he only said that earlier to avoid getting punished. She suggested tying Xing Xing onto the ping pong table and letting the robot arm serve ten thousand balls at his face to force a confession.
Don’t be so cruel! If it served ten thousand balls at his face, then Xing Xing’s face will have craters like the moon.
I didn’t doubt Xing Xing’s confession, because for one, he considers himself my little brother and knows that I frequently visit the VIP building. Another reason was the last time when he got Ai Mi’s autograph, he was so excited that he had snot dripping out of his nose, so it didn’t make sense for him to throw stones at the VIP building where Ai Mi was.
Thirdly, although his parents had a golden retriever, he personally didn’t really like dogs, so it was unlikely he would participate in SAFE.
Finally, after I threw the stones back over the wall, I clearly heard two distinct screams. Xing Xing screamed when he was hit in the leg and the real culprit also screamed when he was hit in the ear.
Fortunately, Xing Xing only had superficial wounds and his muscles or bones weren’t injured. I thought his leg was broken when I saw his pained expression.
Regardless, even if Xing Xing wasn’t able to stop the suspect, he at least had some contributions. In order to commend him, I told Ai Mi to give him a signed album. Xing Xing was naturally delighted and forgot about his leg pain (actually there wasn’t much pain, he just has low tolerance).
I told Peng TouSi to increase the security and don’t give the SAFE members any more opportunities.
“Do you want me to tell my uncle to help see if there’s a student in Qing Zi Academy with an injured ear?”
Xiao Qin asked me after we left Qing Zi Academy.
“So we could get revenge?” I went silent for a bit before shaking my head, “Let’s not trouble the principal. If he’s alone, then he won’t get near the VIP building anymore with his ear injury. If there are still a lot of other SAFE members at Qing Zi Academy, then catching him won’t solve anything… there shouldn’t be any more problems once Ai Mi increases security.”
I dropped Xiao Qin off at the subway station and told her to meet me at the electronics market tomorrow at 9:00. I was going to buy her a new cell phone that she could use to check the star list at any time like I agreed beforehand.
“Actually, I really don’t need it…” Xiao Qin still wanted to decline, but I said: I always fulfill my promises, so if you don’t come tomorrow, I’ll deduct your stars.
Now Xiao Qin had no other choice.
After returning home in the evening, I found that my dad and the members of the HHH Enthusiast Club had also returned.
Those dirty uncles finally decided to send Uncle Fireball, who was recommended by my dad and Director to join the club, to rescue Director Cao in Dongguan as a test for his membership.
Anyway, Uncle Fireball, Director Cao, and my dad, were all shareholders of the Happy Valley Adult Goods Store, and were sworn brothers, so it was justified fro him to go save Director Cao.
The next day, Saturday, I met Xiao Qin at the electronics market fountain square, who had already been waiting there for a long time.
Xiao Qin was completely dressed for a date.
The fountain square had benches for people to rest on, but Xiao Qin didn’t sit on them, probably because they were too close to the bushes and would be vulnerable to Wim attacks. 𝗯𝐞𝐝𝗻𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥.𝐜𝗼𝐦
She stood alone at the edge of the fountain that didn’t have any water and kept looking around.
I came ten minutes early, but she still arrived first.
I walked towards her and waved my hand at her. Some single men who came to buy computers realized that the person Xiao Qin was waiting for was me and they sent jealous gazes at me.
“Why are you wearing stockings.”
I don’t know why that was the first thing I asked.
“Because, because I thought you would like it.” Xiao Qin said nervously, “Zhuang Ni wears stockings at school and a lot of boys sneak glances at her… so I think stockings have some sort of magical power.”
It’s not entirely wrong because there are a lot of men who like stockings. However, Xiao Qin seems more childish regardless of what she wears. For example, the stockings with bow-knots that she was wearing gave off an Alice in Wonderland feeling.
Xiao Qin and I walked around the plaza for 10 minutes before entering the market.
The reason why we had to walk around was because the market only opened at 9:30 and we both came early.
It was obvious Xiao Qin wanted to link arms with me, but she was afraid I would get upset so she could only look enviously at the couples around us.
I wanted to let Xiao Qin link arms, but then I realized it was hard enough making the sister discipline plan. It would lose its effect if I gave Xiao Qin her reward earlier.
“Um, if you want to link arms, you can spend four silver stars.” I said after giving it some thought, “It normally costs four gold stars, but I could give you a special discount today…”
“Nope.” Xiao Qin declined, “You’re trying to trick me to spend stars. Once I save ten thousand gold stars, then linking arms would be free.”
As expected, now Xiao Qin won’t keep thinking about linking arms anymore. She thinks enduring it right now will help her future happiness.
I suddenly realized the bag around Xiao Qin’s right shoulder was a zipper-less cloth canvas bag and it had a few big booklets inside.
“What’s that?” I don’t think Xiao Qin was studious enough to bring homework out with her on the weekends.
“(*^__^*) Hehe.. those are my sketchbooks.” Xiao Qin told me, “I always bring my sketchbooks with me when I go outside to draw better manga. If I discover any scenery, people, or animals worth drawing, then I’ll always have paper to draw on.”
I haven’t been to the electronics market for over a month. When I entered, it was full of colorful products, and the only thing that remained unchanged were the noisy music and the enthusiastic greetings of the salespeople behind the counter.
“Do you want to buy DVDs? It’s a good film.”
An uncles chased us for a couple of meters and pushed his bag of DVDs towards us. It was like he thought someone with my appearance had to buy his DVDs.
Stop looking down on me! I have plenty of those low quality AV DVDs at home! My dad’s a veteran reviewer for the HHH enthusiast club, so he could download those movies from FTP servers at any time! Also, why are you recommending AV movies to me when Xiao Qin is right beside me? Do you want the two of us to watch it together?
The market was very crowded on the weekends, so Xiao Qin subconsciously linked arms with me to prevent getting separated. She then shivered and looked up at me and asked:
“Are, are you going to deduct stars?”
“No, but just this once. It’s crowded here so hold on, also watch out for thieves.”
Xiao Qin nodded and looked happy because she could hold onto my arms without spending any stars.
Soon, I found a counter that looked like it had good quality good. As I was just about to ask Xiao Qin to pick out a cell phone, the salesperson behind the counter said to me in a very unfriendly tone:
“You again? So you came with your girlfriend this time instead of your dad. Which product do you want to criticize this time?”
I looked up and realized: I’ve seen this salesman before. My dad and I came here once on the May first holiday. My dad and I were extremely bored, so we came here to look at the new digital products but we didn’t buy anything. We also talked about the product’s various defects in front of other customers and made the sales clerk and the boss very mad.
Come to think of it, my dad and I only harmed others without really benefiting ourselves. Although we spent May first happily without spending a penny, we left a very bad impression on other people.
“Um, I came to buy something today.” I sat down in front of the counter and beckoned Xiao Qin to sit next to me.
The salesman was half-convinced and looked at Xiao Qin several times to the point she felt embarrassed. He probably deduced that we were on a date and that I was buying a cell phone for my girlfriend, so he finally put a smile on his face.
“Well, take your pick, what’s your budget?”
I shrugged, “It’s not much, only ¥4000…”
“¥4000.” The salesperson was shocked. The last time my dad and I came, we didn’t even buy anything and were still quite picky, so we looked liked losers. Currently, I wasn’t dressed like a rich person, but said I was going to spend ¥4000 on a cell phone.
“¥4000 is almost enough to buy an Apple!”
Xiao Qin and I walked in right when the market opened, so I bet the salesperson really wanted to get a sale to have a good start to the day.
The salesperson looked around, then bent down and pulled out a white box from a cardboard box under the counter.
“Are you interested in a Hong Kong iPhone 5s? It comes with all the original manufacturer packaging and is unopened. I’ll give it to you for ¥4000. I guarantee its authenticity, there’s no way I would scam you and your father when you’re such horrible people.”
The salesperson accidentally let their inner thoughts slip out.
