PS Chapter 51 – Buying a Computer

Zuo Xintian, as her name suggests, looks sweet and lovely.

Especially when she laughs, she tilts her head slightly to the right, and then reveals two shallow dimples on her cheeks, which makes people have the urge to poke it with their fingers.

She smiled a little mischievously and probably wanted to see the disappointed and depressed expression on Lu Chen’s face at this moment.

But she thought too much.

“No, I’m not disappointed, only surprise. It’s my pleasure to accompany you two girls!”

Lu Chen is not a young and tender boy. He was also a famous figure in Jianghai University. How could he be led by Zuo Xintian’s teasing?

He laughed and said, “Everyone will be envious of me!”

As people passed by the main gate of Beijing Normal University, most of them have noticed Lu Chen and Ye Zitong and they look at them with curiosity and envy in their eyes.

Ye Zitong is graceful and beautiful, and Zuo Xintian is small and exquisite with a beautiful face, while Lu Chen is tall and handsome. The combination of these three people will easily become the focus of attention wherever they are.

Ye Zitong noticed other people’s gaze and pushed her friend shyly: “Tiantian, let’s go.”

Zuo Xintian held her arm with a sweet smile and said, “Yezi, don’t you think I’m a light bulb?”

Ye Zitong’s pretty face was suddenly tinged with a faint red, and she said, “What are you saying? I’m just asking my senior to accompany me to buy a computer?”

Zuo Xintian smiled and blinked at Lu Chen.

Lu Chen didn’t know if he should be crying or laughing. The two of them really look like they were dating.

“All right, I’ll stop with the jokes.”

Zuo Xintian said, “Yezi wants to buy a computer. I also want to change keyboard. Where does senior going to take us?”

Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, “Let’s go to the Bay Digital City, which is relatively reliable.”

When Lu Chen had just arrived to Beijing, the place he worked at was at a Digital City. Although he did not do that job for long, he also knew a lot of inside stories. He knew a lot about the reputation of several big computer cities.

“The Bay Digital City?”

Zuo Xintian said, “I’ve been there before. It’s at the 7th stop on Line 3!”

Ye Zitong nodded and said, “Well, I’ve brought my transportation card with me, and we won’t run into traffic jams if we go by subway.”

Lu Chen originally thought of getting a taxi. But since they all said that they should take the subway, it would naturally be a good thing.

The subway station is very close to Beijing Normal University. The three of them walk across the overpass at the intersection, and arrive after a few steps.

Everyone swiped their cards and soon boarded the subway.

On Friday afternoon, although it was not rush hours, but because Line 3 had always been a popular line, the carriage was still almost crowded.

When the two beautiful girls got on the carriage, they inevitably attract people’s attention.

Lu Chen quietly led them to the corner of the carriage.

He took advantage of his height and long arms, holding the left vertical pole with his left hand and holding the upper wrist ring with his right hand to protect the two girls from some unkind gazes.

Zuo Xintian pulled Ye Zitong’s hand and whispered in her ear, “Senior is very manly!”

Ye Zitong is very close to Lu Chen, and she don’t know if it’s because there are too many people in the carriage but her face became red, and when she heard Zuo Xintian’s whisper, her face became redder.

Then train started moving forward, and as the speed got faster, there was frequent vibration. The two girls inevitably came into contact with Lu Chen’s body. Lu Chen tried to keep himself as steady as possible and did not want to be misunderstood as taking advantage because of the situation.

Since it was summer, everyone had worn very thin clothes. And they can clearly feel each other’s softness or firmness when they touch each other. Ye Zitong lowered her head and did not dared to look at Lu Chen. Even Zuo Xintian didn’t speak.

Lu Chen smelled the intoxicating fragrance of the two girls.

It took a lot of perseverance to control the thoughts in his heart.

Fortunately, the 7th stop didn’t take that long, so Lu Chen’s “suffering” did not last long.

The Bay Digital City is just opposite of the subway station.

Lu Chen had just walked over with them, when a group of people immediately surrounded them.

“What computer do you want to buy, brother? Is it for your girlfriend?

“When buying a computer, you must come to our store, and we’re having a promo of having 10 years of credit guarantee. This is a rare opportunity.”

“You three should come to our shop to have a look. If you’re short in money, we have different configuration to accommodate your needs.”

“In our shop...”

Lu Chen knows that these people have been soliciting customers at the gate of the digital city all year round. They’re very stubborn and if they see that the costumer has really come to buy, they will be very enthusiastic.

But if they are fooled by them, it will be a big loss, and they can’t do anything about it even if they cry.

Lu Chen quickly blocked them and said, “We’ve already seen them, so we won’t bother you!”

As soon as his voice fell, he immediately pulled the still somewhat confused Ye Zitong and walked quickly towards the digital city.

After successfully breaking through the encirclement, Lu Chen just let go of Ye Zitong’s small hand and explained, “When you come to the digital city to buy a computer, you must not be entangled by them. None of them is a good thing!”

Ye Zitong’s expression is very weird. She seems to be ashamed and silent. Zuo Xintian holds her arm and laughs.

They held hands!

Lu Chen coughed a little awkwardly and said, “Let’s go and have a look.”

He wanted to say that he really didn’t mean it. It was an accident.

Fortunately, the girls didn’t care.

Along the escalator, the trio arrived on the third floor of Bay City.

In order to solve the embarrassment, Lu Chen asked, “Why don’t you consider buying online? It’s very convenient to buy online now, and you won’t lose money if you place an order in a flagship brand store.”

Ye Zitong’s face returned to normal, she said: “When purchasing online, we can’t see the actual item. We should look at it first whether we like it or not. And if the price in the store is not suitable, then we go online to buy the same model.”

Zuo Xintian smiled sweetly and said, “We often buy clothes like this and just try not to buy it.”

Lu Chen look dumbfounded. They are much smarter when it comes to shopping.

In the past ten years, online shopping has developed very rapidly, which has become an important driving force of the domestic economy. Correspondingly, this has also hit retail stores heavily, such as the original seven big digital electronic cities in Beijing. So far, only four are left, and they are basically just surviving.

Strictly speaking, the decline of many physical stores and shopping malls cannot all be attributed to online shopping. For example, the computer city in Beijing has always been known for its chaos and disorder, and the phenomenon of cheating customers has been banned repeatedly, which has become a cancer in the industry.

Because Lu Chen couldn’t accept the bad atmosphere when he first worked in the computer city, so he just left.

Although It’s true that he hasn’t had any success, but he will never make a living by cheating.

They have plenty of time in the afternoon. So, Lu Chen took Ye Tong and Zuo Xintian to look around, mainly looking at brand stores, especially flagship stores, where the price is high but it’s guaranteed to have good quality.

He advised Ye Zitong to pay attention to the configuration of the computer. As for the style and color, it was left for her decide. Girls do not have high hardware requirements, but they pay special attention to appearance.

The trio looked as they walk around. Finally, Ye Zitong saw a light notebook in a joint venture flagship store. It was price at 5,500.

Lu Chen checked the configuration of the computer. Although the performance is not very high, it is enough for girls. The price is a little expensive, but the style is very new, fashionable and beautiful.

He asked the salesman in the shop, “If I buy two sets, how much discount can you give me?”

Lu Chen knew that flagship store’s price is also exaggerated, and he didn’t want to bargain too much so he directly showed his bottom line.

The salesman, who was smiling, immediately showed his grievance and said, “Sir, we are flagship stores. The prices can’t be discounted, and this is the real price!”

Lu Chen smiled and immediately pulled out his mobile phone and search for the same brand online, and showed the price of the online store to the salesman.

The salesman was very experienced and said, “Sir, online things are unreliable...”

“Don’t say anything else. This is the online shop of this flagship store!”

Lu Chen said straightforwardly, “I will buy two sets for 10,000 plus a matching keyboard and mouse set. You can do that, right? Or I can just go back and buy it online.”

Lu Chen’s attitude is so firm, and the two girls are just looking at the other side. The salesman knows that if he wants to make this business, he has to agree with Lu Chen’s conditions.

Of course, this is also profitable. It’s just a matter of how much profit they will make.

The salesman hesitated for a moment and said, “Well, we’re really going to lose money.”

Lu Chen grinned and said, “You go to the warehouse to transfer the goods. Let’s me say this first, if you bring out an item that has exposed bottom, I will not want it!”
