In the office on the upper floor of the Shangpin Modian building, the 360-degree panoramic curved virtual light screen perfectly displayed the conversation between Xiaoru and Wang Ge. ⊙Dingdian Novel,
The bald man with a naturally fierce appearance couldn't help but say, "Boss, didn't you say last time that this country bumpkin..."
The man with a slicked-back head coldly snorted, "Are you questioning my judgment?"
"No, I'm just worried..." The bald man cautiously looked at the man with the slicked-back head, "Why don't we give the country bumpkin a warning, just in case..."
The man with the slicked-back head felt his authority was being challenged. He slowly turned his head and coldly stared at the bald man, "Are you the boss or am I?"
"..." The bald man didn't dare to speak anymore.
"From the situation just now, it seems that the young miss just wants to help the country bumpkin. I was originally planning to give Wang Ge a warning, but your words have changed my mind. As the boss, I should be the one making decisions: This time, we will continue to follow and protect him, closely observing the country bumpkin. If he has any ulterior motives, we will immediately teach him a lesson. If he behaves normally, we will let it go. It's almost time for school to start, and the young miss won't know when she will come back to the Mountain City Base next. Time will make people forget everything."
"..." The bald man, though vaguely feeling something was off, was convinced by the boss.
"Let's move." The man with the slicked-back head quickly put on the black suit hanging on the back of the chair, then slowly put on the sunglasses, looking mysterious and unfathomable.
Wang Ge walked beside Xiaoru, looking very uneasy.
How to interact with girls was Wang Ge's biggest weakness.
In junior high school, Wang Ge's feelings for the opposite sex began to blossom. He secretly fell in love with the class beauty, Li Yuan. Although junior high school girls were not as developed as mature women, Li Yuan was already well-endowed and had a curvy figure at a young age.
She was far more mature than her peers. Although all students were required to wear school uniforms, her way of wearing them was always different from others.
For example, she would leave a few more buttons undone at the collar, and when she bent over, her chest was fully exposed, and it wasn't an exaggeration to say that even her navel could be seen.
If the top buttons were not undone, she would tie the bottom hem, which not only accentuated her full chest but also showed off her white waist.
She also secretly shortened her school uniform skirt. When standing, it looked similar to others, but when sitting, one could see half of her buttocks from the side, and even her panties from the front...
She mesmerized all the boys in the class, and the inexperienced Wang Ge was no exception. In the first year of junior high, Wang Ge secretly wrote her a love letter but didn't have the courage to give it to her, so he hid it in his desk.
It was eventually found by someone in the third year and given to Li Yuan. She then read it out loud in front of the whole class and handed it to the teacher...
That incident dealt a significant blow to the young Wang Ge. He mentally categorized dating as a taboo and didn't dare to try it again, even losing all female friends.
When he entered high school, his family had an incident, and he had no energy, time, or mood to date a girlfriend.
In the blink of an eye, he was already twenty years old and had never had a girlfriend.
In this era of the Galactic Age, it was almost inconceivable. Most teenagers in the Galactic Age had already tasted the forbidden fruit in junior high school, and casual dating was commonplace.
Now, the Federation had also abolished the monogamy system. At the beginning of the century, people had already accepted the phenomenon of polygamy among the powerful. With the development of society, polygamy was now allowed, making polygamy or polyandry common among the upper class.
As for the poor, those who couldn't find wives before still couldn't. So, on the surface, it seemed like the system had changed, but in reality, it just made what had always existed more visible.
In such an era, Wang Ge, the old bachelor, was truly a rarity.
He always kept a step away from Xiaoru and wouldn't initiate conversation, instead needing Xiaoru to start the conversation: "Wang Ge, what kind of light computer do you want to buy?"
Wang Ge thought for a moment and said, "The light computer is for my sister. The one she uses now lags a lot when playing Star Wars. I want to buy a good one, so it won't lag when playing Star Wars."
"Oh, then you need a high-performance one. Such light computers are usually quite expensive. Have you decided on a price range?" Xiaoru asked again.
"I don't know, let's see." Wang Ge said in a natural and calm tone, "After dropping out of high school, I haven't touched a light computer or visited a light computer store, so I'm not very familiar with them."
"..." Xiaoru didn't say anything, not knowing what to say.
Although dropping out of high school and not touching a light computer were inconceivable to her, given that Wang Ge's parents had passed away and he had a sister to take care of, she could understand the reasons.
However, she couldn't pity Wang Ge because he didn't show any concern, which made Xiaoru admire his calmness.
Fifty meters above their heads, a black business-class flying car was slowly flying. Although business-class flying cars generally pursued stability and low-key, this black flying car, which moved like a snail, still attracted many honks.
In this era, the honking of flying cars was no longer the loud and chaotic "beep beep" of the early 21st century. Instead, it was electronically sensed and directly transmitted to the other party's cockpit, with no noise outside.
As for the driver's feelings, who cared?
The man with the slicked-back head and the bald man were in the cockpit, their ears ringing from the honks, but they could only endure it.
The bald man focused on driving, while the man with the slicked-back head watched Wang Ge and Xiaoru's interaction on the heads-up display on the windshield.
Wang Ge never initiated conversation with Xiaoru, which made the man with the slicked-back head nod in satisfaction. He took on the air of an experienced person, smoking a cigarette and lecturing the bald man, "See? Was I right? Haha, this country bumpkin knows his place and has self-awareness. Very good, I appreciate him."
"The boss is right!" The bald man flattered him.
After that, Zhao Jingru and Wang Ge walked to the Huan Yu Electronics City without a word. If Wang Ge had initiated conversation, Zhao Jingru would have found it very annoying. Because of her family background and beauty, she had many boys around her with various intentions.
One of the reasons she came to the Mountain City Base to experience life during the summer was to avoid some of these "flies."
If Wang Ge had complained about his tragic past to Zhao Jingru, she would have also found it very annoying. She had compassion but disliked a man who whined and acted weak to gain sympathy.
Wang Ge's calmness and composure made Zhao Jingru admire him. His self-improvement despite his tragic past made her even more fond of him.
In the first-floor showroom of Huan Yu Electronics City, several large light computer brands of the Earth Federation were distributed in an orderly manner. They had luxurious and spacious exhibition areas, and the uniformly dressed service staff were polite and charming, making Wang Ge feel a bit lost for a moment.
Although Shangpin Modian was also luxurious, it was ultimately just a cake shop, small in size and with few people. But Huan Yu Electronics City was like a "Crystal Palace," and the distance between each counter was wider than the streets in the civilian area where Wang Ge lived. The salespeople seemed like stars to Wang Ge, causing him considerable psychological pressure.
Wang Ge had never entered the "Crystal Palace" made of steel and glass before. After a brief moment of confusion, he quickly regained his composure.
He had often told himself that one day, he would drive his own flying car, carrying his sister, to the aerial dock of the New Era Mall, then take her into the mall and buy whatever she wanted.
Absolutely no haggling, only buying items that were not on sale!
Now he had taken the first step, entering the "Crystal Palace" to shop.
The world that once seemed so distant now felt unreal, like a dream.
Fortunately, his usual composure and calmness helped him. After regaining his composure, he felt calm.
When Zhao Jingru entered, she paid attention to Wang Ge. She had seen poor people panic and even become stiff when entering such places. She thought if Wang Ge also panicked, she would offer some advice. If it was really too much for him, she would ask him to wait outside and buy the items for him.
However, Wang Ge only lost his composure for a moment before returning to normal, which made Zhao Jingru nod in approval. Although his strength was still weak, he had a strong heart.
"Good morning, sir and miss, our Four Star Computers have recently launched..."
"Good morning, today our Yali Computers are holding a... activity..."
"Which super light computer is the best? Look for Xiangxiang on Mars Base!"
The idle salespeople from various brands all came forward, starting to promote their brands to Zhao Jingru and Wang Ge.
"Which brand should we look at first?" Zhao Jingru asked Wang Ge, intending to save him money by introducing some more affordable brands.
"Which brand of light computer is the best?" Wang Ge asked in return.
Zhao Jingru instantly felt as if she was back in the store when Wang Ge asked her which cake was the best, and she couldn't help but frown.
The salespeople from various brands all subconsciously glanced in a certain direction. Wang Ge looked in that direction and saw a brand called "Xian Nu."
This brand's salespeople didn't actively approach customers; they only greeted them when customers came to look. Despite this, their business was very good.
If the various light computer brands were once in a hundred-flower blooming situation, the "Xian Nu" light computer, upon its release, quickly surpassed all others and became the recognized best light computer.
Because it was high-tech from the Andromeda Galaxy!
