Chapter 21: Pretending to Fail No Longer

Zhang Meimei obviously did not get harassed by her ex-husband today, and her voice became much calmer.

"Hello, Teacher Xiaoshi, thank you. I didn't expect that Liangliang's changes have been so big just once in the tutoring class. It seems that I'm really right to ask you to be her tutor this time."

Shi Lei smiled slightly. It seemed that yesterday was still effective. Perhaps Jane Zhang had washed off the makeup on her face and her hair returned to normal. She looked like a normal girl, so Zhang Meimei said that.

"But, what happened after I left yesterday, why did Jingliang change so much. When I got home at night, I couldn't believe my eyes. I originally thought that this girl must have gone out to play again when I came back." Zhang Meimei said again.

Shi Lei said: "Actually, I didn't do anything, because your requirements are relatively low, I just hoped that I could watch her, so I didn't tutor her, but just gave her two questions. As a result, you went out before I could do it, and then Jane Zhang ran out. I sat with her in the community for a while and chatted for a few words. If you didn't tell me, I wanted to talk to you. Jane Zhang seemed more rebellious than children of the same age. Of course, there will be family changes, but to be honest, the divorce rate is actually very high now, and single-parent families are not uncommon. If this alone, Jane Zhang wouldn't be like this. She actually just lacks your concern.

I intentionally eavesdropped, but the conversation between you and your ex-husband was too loud. I guess that in the elementary school stage of Jane Zhang, you were probably very busy and so busy that you didn’t have time to take care of her. Your ex-husband probably didn’t take good care of her, so she had a serious lack of family warmth and care for her parents. After something happened at your home, she had lost her basic trust in her father. After living with you, she wanted you to care more about her. But after you divorce, you were probably busier, and the rebellion she showed was largely just to attract your attention. Even if you were scolded, even if you quarrel, it would be better than not seeing you, or you would have nothing to say after meeting."

The other end of the phone was silent, and no sound came out for a long time.

After waiting for a while, Shi Lei asked, "Ms. Zhang, Lawyer Zhang, are you still here?"

"Oh, I'm... sorry, I was distracted just now. Thank you, Teacher Xiaoshi, you are right. I ignored my concern for her. I really didn't fulfill the responsibilities of a mother. As a mother, it's not enough to provide her children with financial worry-free life. I should participate more in her growth. Thank you, I really don't do enough in this regard. Let's do this, you don't have to come here today. I'm going to have a break today. I want to take Jingliang out for fun. We have a meal and have a good chat."

Shi Lei also smiled and said, "It's great that you can think so, so let's do it. I'll go there on time next Saturday afternoon."

Both sides said politely and hung up the phone. Shi Lei turned over and jumped off the bed, finished washing and headed straight to Deji Square.

Although it was a week later, the clerk of an alien computer store recognized Shi Lei at a glance. It was difficult for the clerk to not be impressed by this guy who pretended to be the most expensive laptop as soon as he entered the door but couldn't afford to pretend to be the most expensive one but couldn't afford to be a completely failed person.

This time, Shi Lei was the same. As soon as he entered the door, he said, "Where is the most expensive laptop? It's the one that costs more than 80,000 yuan. I'll issue an invoice for me quickly, I want one!"

The clerk was stunned and thought to himself, why does this guy have a trick every time he comes? And why did the computer he bought last week come again this week?

With uncertainty, the clerk asked, "Sir, I remember you, you just came last week, how about it? Is that laptop good for use?"

"Not good, very bad. I poured a glass of water on it and it started to smoke."

The clerk was stunned and looked at Shi Lei speechlessly, saying, "Although our computers are replaced with two-year warranty for one year, but you are purely artificially damaged... You can use the computer to us to check it, and charge you some hardware replacement fees at your discretion, and you can still replace it with a new computer."

"It's so troublesome, and a mere glass of water actually broke. This thing is obviously unreliable. I'd better have one for more than 80,000 yuan. I remember you said last week that the one for more than 80,000 yuan is waterproof?"

The clerk became speechless and explained: "Computer waterproofing only refers to splash protection. The one you bought last week is also theoretically waterproof. It is definitely not possible to pour a glass of water on it like you said."

"No matter how many, you can just get one for more than 80,000 yuan. I remember it can be discounted, right?"

Seeing Shi Lei insisting, the clerk naturally would not say more, and nodded and said, "Our store is doing an event. The top-end laptop you mentioned is indeed within the range of the activity. The total price is 88,000 yuan, and the activity price is 20% off or 70,000 yuan. If you are sure to ask for it, I will bring you one."

Shi Lei waved his hand and threw the bank card directly.

After swiping the card, the 80,000 yuan quota was only 9,000 yuan this week. Shi Lei said to the clerk: "You were a bit unauthentic last week. You actually installed a pirated operating system for me. Brand stores like yours shouldn't have pirated ones. This time you can't install a pirated system for me, it must be genuine."

The clerk scratched his head and said, "The low-end laptops are indeed equipped with batch versions of operating systems. We have also made some concessions in terms of price. The one you purchased today is definitely an authentic system. If you need it, I can hand over the genuine disc to you. Or, after you get the machine, you can directly connect to the Internet for inquiries."

Shi Lei nodded with satisfaction and said, "No need to check it out. I still believe you for such a big brand. Just say it is genuine."

With a brand new top-notch alien, Shi Lei returned to the dormitory.

Zhang Wei was probably still drunk in the Internet cafe, but the other two roommates in the dormitory had already returned. Seeing the alien notebook in Shi Lei's hand, he immediately showed a shocked expression.

Zhang Wei told them on WeChat that Shi Lei bought an alien and was boiled with a glass of water. Shi Lei did not ask him to compensate. During WeChat chat, Zhang Wei swears that Shi Lei may be a rich second generation who has been low-key for three years, and these two people still don’t believe it.

Now seeing Shi Lei bringing back an alien, the two of them looked at each other and couldn't help but look at each other. They couldn't believe it anymore.

"Shitou, are you buying another alien?" The first one was Tu Ming, the second child in the dormitory.

"You are really a rich second generation? But for three years, you are too low-key, right?" The man named Luo Yi, the boss of the dormitory.

Shi Lei curled his lips and threw the box in his hand at the two of them. They were so scared that they hurriedly caught it. Shi Lei said lightly: "I was not satisfied with the one I used last week. If Zhang Wei broke it, he would just break it. I asked my family for money in the morning, so I bought another one. This one is the top-end, 88,000!"

Luo Yi and Tu Ming were completely shocked and could not believe it at all. They disassembled the box in just a few seconds. After turning on the computer, they checked the configuration and were completely convinced...

"Damn it! It's really the top-notch, 16 G memory, 3T hard drive, graphics and sound cards are all top-notch, and the screen is also a 4K touch screen. Stone, this computer is so powerful that it can kill Wu Da instantly!"

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and start a game to make me feel good."
