Chapter 341: Bought dozens of claw machines for my wife to practice!
Shi Runrun stood there blankly, still holding the warm cell phone in his hand.
Her brain completely shut down after listening to Xiao Xuezheng's brief yet devastating phone call.
Buy it?
Buy this claw machine?
Could she understand that if she took a fancy to a star in the future, this man would have to send someone to contact NASA to discuss the acquisition?
The air around them fell into that familiar, deathly silence again.
The crowd who were whispering about them just now seemed to have pressed the pause button. They opened their mouths wide and looked at the man who hung up the phone with a calm expression as if he was looking at an alien.
Shi Runrun felt his temples start throbbing again.
She took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress the urge to strangle him on the spot, grinding her back teeth and squeezing out word by word from between her teeth.
"Xiao Xuezheng, do you really have that serious illness?"
Hearing this, the man turned around, his deep black eyes filled with pure innocence and confusion.
"What's wrong?"
He even reached out and straightened his unwrinkled suit cuffs, and began to speak in a rigorous tone as if discussing an academic issue.
"I just think that the machine's programming has serious logical flaws. The probability of catching is completely disproportionate to the input cost, and it is suspected of consumer fraud."
He paused and added, his expression serious.
"I'll buy it back and have the company's engineering team study it to see if we can optimize the algorithm and make a small contribution to improving the social entertainment environment."
Shi Runrun: “…”
Contribute, you big head ghost!
She looked at this serious man who was talking nonsense and completely lost her temper.
The anger in my heart was blown away by his absurd and ridiculous remarks, leaving only a wasteland of laughter and tears.
She sighed resignedly, took his arm and tried to leave.
"Let's go, let's go. Please, before the whole school looks at me like a monkey, can we leave the crime scene immediately?"
But the man just stood there, motionless.
He grabbed her and brought her back to the claw machine that was about to change her fate.
"Wait a moment."
"What again?" Shi Runrun's voice was filled with despair.
Xiao Xue Zheng ignored her and took out a few brand new banknotes from his wallet and handed them to the guy next to him who was already dumbfounded and was in charge of exchanging game coins.
The young man took the money tremblingly, exchanged it for a large handful of game coins in a hurry, and handed it over respectfully.
Xiao Xue Zheng took the small plastic basket and gracefully dropped a game coin into it.
The machine played cheerful music.
He gripped the joystick, and the hands that had signed contracts worth hundreds of millions were now concentrating on manipulating a stuffed toy.
His expression was as focused as if he was performing a delicate surgical operation.
Shi Runrun stood aside and looked at him like this. The feeling of helplessness in her heart was gradually replaced by an inexplicable emotion.
Seems... kind of cute?
“Pah.”
When the claws were still a million miles away from the Totoro doll, they fell down powerlessly and caught nothing.
The man's handsome brows knitted slightly.
He didn't believe it and threw in another game coin.
This time, he adjusted the angle, calculated the wind speed (even though there was no wind), and even glanced at the reflection on the glass next to him out of the corner of his eye, trying to get a three-dimensional positioning.
“Pah.”
Once again, the claws perfectly avoided all targets.
“…”
Xiao Xuezheng's face turned a little dark.
He just didn't believe it.
He, Xiao Xuezhen, a man who has been able to dominate the business world and has never been defeated, could be stumped by a small machine today?
The third one.
“Pah.”
The fourth one.
“Pah.”
The fifth...
More and more students gathered around, no one dared to make a sound, but just tried to hold back their laughter, their shoulders shaking.
Shi Runrun also went from being helpless at the beginning to simply wanting to laugh.
She looked at the arrogant man who was currently struggling with a claw machine. The expression on his handsome face changed from determination at the beginning, to confusion, to impatience, and now... anger.
It's so fun.
Seeing that the small basket of game coins was almost empty, and the Totoro doll was still lying there intact, not even moving from its position, Xiao Xue Zheng's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
"The torque of this claw is wrong," he said in a deep voice, as if analyzing the reasons for the project's failure for his subordinates. "Also, the latency of this infrared positioning system is too high, making it impossible to achieve precise control."
Shi Runrun finally couldn't help it and burst out laughing.
She took the only remaining game coin from his hand, stood on tiptoe, and threw it in.
"Let me try."
She imitated him, shaking the joystick casually, then closing her eyes and randomly tapping the red button.
The claw in the machine swung down.
Without anyone noticing, he actually grabbed the chubby Totoro doll's ear!
The claws slowly rose, and everyone's heart was in their throat.
It slowly moved above the cave entrance.
release.
With a "bang".
The chubby Totoro just fell into the exit.
The whole audience was silent.
Immediately, thunderous applause and cheers broke out.
"Wow! Senior is amazing!"
"It's Ou Shen! It's Ou Shen himself!"
Shi Runrun herself was stunned. She looked at the doll at the exit and could not believe her eyes.
She...she caught it?
She turned her head, wanting to share this joy with Xiao Xue Zheng, but was met with his handsome face filled with complex expressions of "shock", "confusion", and "this is unscientific".
The man's self-esteem seemed to have suffered a devastating blow.
He used up all the business logic and physics knowledge he had learned throughout his life, but ended up in failure.
And she, with her eyes closed, attacked recklessly and hit the target with one strike.
This is simply a public execution.
Shi Runrun looked at his devastated expression and could no longer hide the smile in her heart. She bent down, took out the soft Totoro doll and put it in his arms.
She stood on tiptoe, leaned close to his ear, and whispered in his serious tone.
"Mr. Xiao, it seems that sometimes luck is more important than skill."
The man's body stiffened for a moment.
He held the soft doll in his arms, and looked at the little woman's face that was smiling like a fox that had stolen some meat. His ears turned red little by little.
After a long time, he finally squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.
"…You're lucky."
Although he didn't admit it, his grip on the doll tightened a bit, and the gloom on his face dissipated a lot.
At this moment, Qin Feng hurried over with a few people in work clothes.
"Sir, everything is done. Here is the transfer contract."
Qin Feng handed over a document, then waved to the person behind him, "You can move now."
The staff members immediately stepped forward and started to dismantle the claw machine.
"Wait a moment!"
The one who spoke was Shi Runrun.
She grabbed Xiao Xuezheng's arm and shook her head at Qin Feng.
"No need to move, we don't want it."
After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Xiao Xue Zheng, took the Totoro doll from his arms, and held it in her arms.
"I've caught it, that's enough."
She hugged the soft doll, rubbed her cheek against it, tilted her head back, and gave him a smile brighter than the sun.
"Thank you, Xiao, this is the best gift I have ever received."
Not because of the doll itself, but because of the way he clumsily, earnestly, struggled with a machine to make her happy.
That moved her more than anything money could buy.
Xiao Xue Zheng looked at the bright smile on her face and the light in her eyes, and the softest part of his heart seemed to be gently touched by something.
He was silent for a moment, and finally waved at Qin Feng.
"No."
He naturally took the Totoro doll from Shi Runrun's hand, held it in one hand, and held her hand with the other.
"go home."
The two left the square side by side under the envious gaze of the crowd.
On the way back to the villa, Shi Runrun was in a very good mood. She held the chinchilla, which was later put back into her arms by Xiao Xuezhen, and smiled foolishly from time to time.
The atmosphere in the carriage was warm and quiet.
When he was almost home, Xiao Xuezheng's cell phone rang.
It’s Sister Li calling.
"Sir, please come back soon! Someone sent dozens and dozens of claw machine machines to our house. They've completely taken up the entire lawn!"
Sister Li's voice was filled with shock and confusion.
Xiao Xue Zheng paused his hand gripping the steering wheel. He glanced through the rearview mirror at Shi Runrun, who was holding a doll and laughing foolishly, and his brows twitched slightly.
He remembered.
When Qin Feng came just now, he seemed to have... forgotten to ask him to cancel the subsequent orders.
His instructions to Qin Feng at that time were to contact the owner of the claw machine company and buy the one in Jingda Plaza, and by the way, send all the same models in his warehouse to the villa.
On the other end of the phone, Sister Li was still anxiously asking, "Sir? What should we do with these things?"
Xiao Xue Zheng cleared his throat and spoke calmly, his tone as flat as if he was saying that the weather was nice today.
"Don't move, I bought all those."
He paused and added.
"It's for my wife to practice with."
