Cheng Liang finally noticed that there was a person standing next to Little Shark. He looked about the same age as Little Shark, but seemed more mature.
“Yes, I’m the president of the IT Club, Grade 6, Class 1, and my name is Cheng Liang.” After introducing himself, he looked at Gu Beilu with interest, “Little classmate, how did you know I was from the IT Club?”
It’s no wonder that Cheng Liang asked this question. The IT Club didn’t have any projects for lower grades, and Gu Beilu was admitted as an exception.
“Who is the little classmate?” Gu Beilu stared at him fiercely, like a little lion with its fur standing on end, almost baring his teeth when facing a foreign beast that was about to invade his territory.
Yu Xi was secretly happy, knowing that the senior they were looking for finally showed up. He pulled Gu Beilu’s sleeve, signaling him to be friendly.
Then he immediately answered for him: “His name is Gu Beilu, and he’s the top student in our grade! He’s also in the IT club!”
This person is Gu Beilu’s benefactor. In the book, he is in the same interest club as Gu Beilu. Gu Beilu has such a high IQ that only the top students in the upper grades can enlighten him!
Yu Xi’s round eyes sparkled with joy. It was worth it that he had waited for so many days and searched for so long just now, but he finally found the person.
Gu Beilu didn’t know what he was thinking, he just noticed that after Yu Xi saw Cheng Liang, his eyes became visibly brighter.
Cheng Liang seemed to remember something and slapped the table: “Gu Beilu, so you are the little genius! The one with the highest IQ in the school? I’ve heard about it from the teacher a long time ago.”
Yu Xi was so frightened by the noise of the table slamming that he jumped back. Gu Beilu seriously pulled him back, away from Cheng Liang.
Cheng Liang seemed to have noticed his own faux pas and found that Yu Xi was frightened, so he asked in a much softer voice: “Excuse me, little shark, what’s your name?”
This time it was Gu Beilu’s turn to answer: “Don’t call him Little Shark, he has a name, his name is Yu Xi.”
Little Shark, Little Shark, in public at school, is it appropriate to call him that? He himself couldn’t bear to call him that.
Cheng Liang was amused by their cuteness: “You two are good friends, right? You are so cute. You don’t even mention your own names, but just help introduce each other’s names.”
Somehow, he felt that the two kids in front of him were like the “Fool and the Grouch” in the cartoon. One was cute, and the other was weird.
Gu Beilu knew that no one would say he was cute, Yu Xi must be the cute one, but he also didn’t like Cheng Liang saying Yu Xi was cute, so he turned around and pulled Yu Xi to leave: “There’s nothing good here, let’s go.”
Yu Xi was quick to think of a way to keep the man: “Yes, yes, I want to buy this…”
In a panic, he pointed at something on the table, which happened to be a red toy car.
Gu Beilu glanced at it, and changed his nouveau riche demeanor of buying things just now, and found fault with it unsatisfactorily: “This car is so broken, what’s so good about it.”
He could think of a hundred reasons to diss this crappy model, and he didn’t even understand what the value of this thing was to be sold for charity.
Cheng Liang raised his eyebrows, as if he could see what he was thinking. He picked up the car that Yu Xi liked and said, “You guys really have good taste. This is not an ordinary toy model. It is my latest invention – a smart sweeping robot supercar.”
Next, Cheng Liang demonstrated how to use the car. Yu Xi clapped her hands and cheered. Gu Beilu’s face turned even darker.
Seeing Yu Xi’s increasing interest, Cheng Liang continued to sell the car to the young guests: “Look, this car is equipped with a smart program. You only need to select a mode on this small remote control, and it can help you clean the floor at home. It can also automatically avoid obstacles, and its suction power and battery life are super strong. It is most suitable for you primary school students to help our parents with housework.”
Yu Xi listened attentively. He had never seen a robot vacuum cleaner before, and thought it was amazing. But Gu Beilu had been annoyed by this thing since he was a child. It often ran around on the floor, disturbing his reading, and would bang against the door when it broke down. He broke one when he was five years old, and since then the housekeeper dared not choose it to clean the house when he was at home.
“What about this one? What about this one?” Yu Xi pointed at another car.
Cheng Liang introduced enthusiastically: “This one is even more amazing. It is a smart butler car, which integrates multiple functions and is also compatible with voice search function. Basically, it can do whatever you want it to do.”
“Wow!” Yu Xi’s eyes widened even more, completely conquered by the high technology.
Gu Beilu stood aside in silence, watching Yu Xi ask questions here and there, almost asking about all the cars on the stall. Finally, he had difficulty making a decision, looking back and forth between the two cars, unable to make a decision, and looked back at him eagerly.
Gu Beilu’s expression belike: Finally you remembered me?
When Yu Xi was in trouble, he would subconsciously look at him, knowing that he would give the correct option.
Gu Beilu still couldn’t figure out what the value of this product without any innovation was, but he didn’t want to listen to Cheng Liang anymore, nor did he want to spoil Yu Xi’s fun, so he said, “Buy them all.”
Yu Xi happily turned to Cheng Liang and said, “Brother Cheng Liang, we want both!”
Cheng Liang hesitated for a moment, looked at the car Yu Xi pointed at, and then looked up at them: “These two? These are the top models we have here, are you… sure?”
Generally speaking, it is impossible for first-grade students to have so many red flowers, let alone buy two at once.
Gu Beilu was unhappy again. Who was he looking down on? He slammed the little red flower passbook on the table, as if he wanted to buy the whole store.
Cheng Liang took a look at the number above and found it was really enough. He couldn’t help but sigh: “A big customer.”
He became rich at such a young age and his future is immeasurable.
“Hurry up and pack it up, we’re in a hurry.” Gu Beilu urged unhappily.
Yu Xi was worried that he might offend his senior, so he quickly added, “Thank you, brother! We’ll come again next time.”
The voice was soft and sweet, and it made Gu Beilu very angry.
Cheng Liang didn’t argue with the kid and professionally put the car into the paper bag: “We also provide free maintenance upgrades and warranties. If you have any problems during use, you can contact us.”
Yu Xi nodded vigorously: “Okay, okay, we will definitely come to find you, Brother Cheng Liang!”
He asked Gu Beilu to go find the senior. Gu Beilu was a slow warmer and didn’t talk much when they first met, but it didn’t matter. He believed that smart students would definitely become good friends.
“Here, take it carefully.”
Cheng Liang handed the packaged bag to Yu Xi, but Gu Beilu blocked him and snatched it away without any hesitation.
He glanced at Cheng Liang with dissatisfaction.
How dare you give Yu Xi such a heavy thing?
Yu Xi is so soft and small, how can he lift such a heavy object?
*
After returning home, Yu Xi excitedly took out the car and wanted to try it out to see if it was really that amazing.
But he got stuck at the step of installing the battery, so he turned to Gu Beilu for help, blinking his eyes: “Derek, I forgot what Brother Cheng Liang taught me just now.”
Gu Beilu rarely offered a hand to help him, but just kept a gloomy face and said nothing.
“Derek, what’s wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?” Yu Xi tilted his head to look at him, and ran his small hands back and forth on their foreheads, finding that they were not sick.
Gu Beilu is not sick, so this expression must mean he is unhappy.
“Are you upset Derek?”
Gu Beilu was furious: “Why do you keep calling that stupid guy brother?”
Yu Xi didn’t understand why Gu Beilu was unhappy about this, and was still explaining seriously: “He is our senior, older than us, so of course he is our brother.”
Gu Beilu was dissatisfied: “Then I am older than you, so you should call me brother.”
He is four months older than Yu Xi, a real four months older. Yu Xi has never called him brother, but he actually calls some random person brother. And he just met that random person!
Thinking back to how Yu Xi had become a different person after seeing Cheng Liang today, the more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Yu Xi was really not a good kid!
Yu Xi scratched his face, looked at the angry Gu Beilu innocently, and said softly: “Brother…”
Gu Beilu was stunned: “What did you say?”
Yu Xi blinked and repeated, “Brother?”
He thought about it and decided that in terms of age, Gu Beilu was indeed the older brother.
The next second, the smart toy car in his hand was taken away by Gu Beilu, and after he started it up, it returned to his hand.
