The next day, back at school, Xu Chen found his classmates discussing him. He gradually realized the saying, "People fear fame, just as pigs fear fattening." As soon as he entered the classroom, Li Haitao stared at Xu Chen's feet in surprise and said, "Xu Chen, your shoes... your shoes are the same style as the Moon People's!" Xu Chen glanced helplessly at his shoes and smiled at Li Haitao. Li Haitao quickly stepped forward and asked, "Xu Chen, how did you get them? I checked the Dark Tower website, and these shoes are sold out. Can you tell me where you got them?" His sincere question caught Xu Chen off guard. "My sister bought them for me; she bought them almost half a year ago." Li Haitao sat back down in disappointment. He was in the first row from the door, remembering the pictures of the Dark Tower website he'd seen yesterday. He instinctively wanted to see what his classmates were wearing, but only Xu Chen was wearing the same style, and had bought them a long time ago. "What should I do? I really want them! God, can you give me a way?" Li Haitao vigorously rubbed his hair.
Li Qingqing, the rich girl in the class, was yelling into the phone, "I don't care! Get in touch with the people at Dark Tower right now! I want those shoes today!" Her father, on the other end of the line, said helplessly, "I already called them. Even their vice president's daughter wants them, but they're out of stock. Qingqing, just wait a little longer, Dad will definitely get them for you." Li Qingqing retorted angrily, "I told you to always look at domestic brands when I buy things! What's the point of buying those foreign brands all the time? Okay, that's it, I'm hanging up!" She slammed down the phone, forgetting that she used to always ask her father to buy things from the US and Japan, but never from China.
In the ten or so seconds it took Xu Chen to walk to the table, at least three people asked him about "purchase channels." Wang Li glanced at them with disdain and whispered to Xu Chen, "These girls, they usually only care about big foreign brands. Now that domestic brands are popular, they're all like ants on a hot plate, all wanting to buy them. So vain." Xu Chen patted Wang Li on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Alright, class is about to start, stop being so resentful." Only then did Wang Li withdraw her disdainful gaze.
Xiao Bai then said seriously, "I think you should have taken a picture back then, with yourself and the spaceship in the picture, and uploaded it to the Internet after returning to Earth. Maybe you could have become a millionaire." Xu Chen smiled, "The caption would be 'The Day I Was Abducted by Aliens'? Hahaha, but the alien is actually me."
With the tacit approval of the Chinese government, the footprint image quickly spread across the globe, causing a major upheaval in various countries. In the Oval Office of the White House in the United States, an old man wearing adult diapers was answering a subordinate's phone call. His eyes were sometimes confused and sometimes clear. With constant reminders from his aides and by combining what he had overheard on the phone, the old man, named Wall Lamp, finally managed to understand the situation. He slowly and deliberately said, "Are you saying that Chinese may have landed on the moon in secret?" The aide nodded. Wall Lamp realized the seriousness of the matter. He picked up his briefcase containing the adult diapers and went with his aide to the Pentagon for a meeting. The meeting was expected to go on very late, and he couldn't afford to ejaculate on the spot again. This incident also caused a huge reaction in Japan. Japanese public opinion exploded, and Japanese citizens lamented online that their country was becoming increasingly inferior to their Chinese "father." At this time, Xu Chen was still in class. He was unaware that because of his "mistake," global public opinion had been plunged into a huge debate.
In the teachers' office, a group of teachers were groaning, "It's almost the third mock exam, and the college entrance exam is just around the corner. Why is the Education Bureau coming to inspect? Isn't this just adding pressure to students and teachers?" A young teacher said indignantly. Being a teacher is really tough; teaching students has become a side job, and the main job is writing reports. He figured that after this inspection, they'd have to submit more reports. Another teacher said calmly, "Don't worry, relax. My brother-in-law told me that their director is coming to see that student named Xu Chen and have a chat with him." "Oh, I'm relieved then. Speaking of which, that Xu Chen student in the senior year is too amazing! He always scores above 720 on every exam. A student like that, Peking University and Qingdao University might be fighting over him." "Yeah, I bet our Xu Chen won't even know which school to choose by then." "I wish I had that kind of worry." "Choose a good position in your dreams tonight, and you'll probably dream about that kind of worry."
After school in the afternoon, Xu Chen returned home. Wang Rong was sitting on the sofa watching TV. Seeing her son, she, heavily pregnant, didn't feel comfortable hugging him directly, so she just smiled and asked, "Chenchen, what are we having for dinner tonight?" Xu Chen weighed the chicken he had just bought at the market in his hand. "I'll make you a pot of chicken soup tonight." After putting down his schoolbag in the bedroom, he took the chicken and went straight to the kitchen. Since Wang Rong became pregnant, she hadn't been in the kitchen; Xu Nan, Xu Chen, and Xu Jianguo had been cooking. Xu Chen prepared the chicken and started cooking it. Soon, Xu Nan also returned home. As soon as she entered, she smelled the aroma. "Mom, the chicken soup smells so good!" Wang Rong smiled lovingly at her. "Your little Chen is making chicken soup. You little glutton, you're in for a treat tonight." Xu Nan excitedly rushed into the kitchen and hugged Xu Chen. "What am I going to do, Chen? I think you're getting cuter and cuter." Xu Chen pretended to be disgusted and pushed his sister away. "Sis, don't be silly, let me finish cooking first."
When Xu Jianguo returned home that evening, the family happily finished dinner. Just as Xu Chen was about to go into his room, Xu Jianguo suddenly said, "Son, Director Zhao from the Education Bureau is going to your school tomorrow. He's already told me." Xu Chen nodded, went into his room, turned on his phone, and started looking at the Wolf Fang Ranking.
