Chapter 81 Bad Friends
That day, when Chen Sui was studying video editing alone in the incubator, she saw Lü Zhizhe walk in briskly with a cigarette tucked behind his ear.
When Chen Sui saw that it was Lü Zhizhe, her expression immediately turned sour. This guy was so persistent, how did he even follow her all the way here?
She immediately frowned and questioned him angrily, "Hey classmate, you've gone too far. I've already said I won't be your basketball partner or accept your interviews, so why are you bothering me? Please don't bother me unless it's absolutely necessary."
Of course, it won't work if something comes up.
Lu Zhizhe looked completely indifferent and said in a nonchalant tone, "I didn't come here to see you."
"Huh?" Now it was Chen Sui's turn to be confused.
"Is this the incubator? It's quite remote and hard to find. Wasn't this supposed to be approved as a startup base for Chen Che? What are you doing here? Where is he?"
She naturally didn't know where Chen Che was, but she was quite surprised that Lü Zhizhe hadn't come to see her, and even felt a little disappointed.
At this moment, Chen Che pushed the door open and came in. Seeing the scene, he remained silent, giving the impression that it was a movie for three people, but he shouldn't have a name.
Fortunately, Lü Zhizhe didn't take it seriously at all and came over to pat him on the shoulder warmly: "Brother, I'm here to see you."
"Oh," Chen Che turned to look at Chen Sui beside him, who smiled somewhat awkwardly, "I thought he was here to see me."
"Squad leader, look at you, why are you being so self-absorbed? Don't be so narcissistic in the future, the world doesn't revolve around you." Chen Che teased casually.
It's obvious they're all revolving around me.
Just a few days ago, Lü Zhizhe looked disgusted and insisted on maintaining social distance, but now he and Chen Che are leaning against the door, talking with their arms around each other's shoulders.
Lu Zhizhe took the cigarette from behind his ear and handed it to Chen Che, saying familiarly, "Brother, want one? It's good stuff, a Nanjing 95 I found in my dad's drawer."
Chen Che chuckled lightly. When has cigarettes ever been associated with anything good?
Before he could even take it, he heard a soft snort from the side, and Chen Sui looked at him with a look of disgust and warning.
There's no need to spell it out; if I dared to have one in front of her, she'd probably kick me out on the spot.
So Chen Che shook his head and declined: "I don't smoke, and you shouldn't either. Smoking is not allowed in the incubator."
Lu Zhizhe looked around for a moment: "I didn't see any 'No Smoking' signs?"
"I just placed the order; I'll put the sign up in a bit."
Lu Zhizhe shrugged helplessly, but it didn't matter. If they didn't want him to smoke, he wouldn't smoke. He still had to give them that much face. So he put the cigarette back behind his ear.
"So, what brings you here?" Chen Che asked.
Lu Zhizhe chuckled and explained, "Brother, thanks to your guidance, I feel my relationship with my family has improved a lot."
Well, it wasn't that things were bad to begin with, it's just that there's a bit of a generation gap, so we don't have much to say to each other.
Chen Che smiled and said, "That's good. Actually, I didn't do anything for you."
Besides, these were originally the words of your future self when you were chatting with me over tea in the office. I was just repeating them, Chen Che thought to himself.
"So, I'll accept you as my friend." Lu Zhizhe patted Chen Che's shoulder solemnly.
This wasn't just a casual remark; it was a promise. Seeing Chen Sui there, Lü Zhizhe knew their relationship was extraordinary, and it was only a matter of time before they became boyfriend and girlfriend.
I understand the principle of not coveting a friend's wife, and besides, I've never been the kind of person who would give up the whole forest for one tree.
"That would be an honor," Chen Che said with a smile.
At this moment, Lü Zhizhe's eyes swept over the computer tower on the table, and he became interested, asking, "Brother, where did you get your computer assembled? A computer mall or a pre-built system from Taobao?"
Chen Che shook his head and said, "No, I pretended."
"You installed it yourself? You can install computers?" Lu Zhizhe asked in surprise.
"Yes, I can. From writing the configuration list to buying parts and assembling the computer, I handled everything myself." Chen Che proudly raised his eyebrows, although Chen Sui later reassembled it.
"That's perfect!"
Lu Zhizhe said with great enthusiasm, "My mom was in such a good mood a few days ago that she transferred tens of thousands of yuan to me for spending money. I don't know how to spend it."
I'm actually looking to build a new computer, but I'm worried about getting ripped off. Why don't you help me with that? It's always more reliable and reassuring to know someone I know.
Chen Che's eyes lit up. Business was coming to him without him having to do anything. Was there really such a good thing?
He immediately nodded in agreement, his confident expression inspiring confidence: "Brother, don't worry about me, I guarantee you'll be satisfied. What's your budget?"
"Hmm..." Lu Zhizhe pondered for a moment, "Twenty thousand then."
"Tao Shao?" Chen Che was taken aback.
"I said 20,000 yuan, so what? Hey, it doesn't really matter, just go for the top-of-the-line version." Lu Zhizhe thought for a moment, then waved his hand to indicate that it was up to you, money was no big deal.
Chen Che suppressed his joy and remained outwardly calm: "Brother, no problem, I'll definitely get you a top-of-the-line computer."
"Oh, right." Lu Zhizhe snapped his fingers, then suddenly remembered something and excitedly added, "I want those colorful marquee lights with the lighting effects maxed out."
"No problem, it has to be this kind of light pollution... uh... dazzling light effects to match your temperament, Young Master Lu." Chen Che nodded repeatedly, smiling as he agreed.
Lu Zhizhe added the requirements he could think of, and Chen Che accepted them all until the other party nodded in satisfaction and left the incubator. Chen Che followed him out and hospitably escorted him all the way upstairs to the entrance of the main activity room.
As soon as he stepped out of the incubator, Lü Zhizhe eagerly put the cigarette in his mouth, checked his pockets and found he had no lighter, then turned to Chen Che and said, "Brother, got a lighter?"
Chen Che saw this and, while reaching into his pocket, said, "I have some, want to try mine?"
When Lü Zhizhe saw that Chen Che was smoking a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes, he thought it was acceptable. He wouldn't be interested in something like Baijiang Shuangxi, so he nodded to indicate that it was fine.
Chen Che looked into the torn opening in the cigarette box, took out a Green Wrigley's cigarette, and handed it over.
"Eat this, and smoke less. It's no good for you at all. I'm only giving you this advice because I consider you a friend."
Lu Zhizhe was taken aback and suddenly found it a bit funny. All his friends around him were racking their brains to figure out how to get him all sorts of fancy cigarettes, alcohol, and betel nuts.
It was quite unexpected that someone would give me a piece of chewing gum and say something like that.
Lu Zhizhe chewed the gum and chuckled, "I'll take you on as my brother now, bro."
Chen Che shook his head in annoyance: "What 'brother'? Why are you acting like you're the older brother?"
Lu Zhizhe said matter-of-factly, "Brother, you won't lose out by acknowledging me as your brother. Today, I'll give you a basic lesson on how to flirt with girls. Think about it carefully and try to apply what you've learned to other situations."
"Oh my, that's quite the show-off." Chen Che chuckled.
Lu Zhizhe took out his camera, hung it around his neck, randomly picked a girl passing by (of course, she couldn't be too ugly), and snapped a picture with his camera.
The girl heard the shutter sound and subconsciously looked over, her face showing displeasure. Why was someone taking her picture without her consent?
The girl was about to explode with anger when Lü Zhizhe spoke first, smiling warmly: "Hey classmate, you've wandered into my shot!"
"Huh?" The girl was taken aback. "Oh... I'm sorry."
"It's nothing, it's nothing," Lü Zhizhe quickly waved his hand, his eyes darting around, seizing the opportunity to back down: "But it's quite a coincidence, could you be my model for a while?"
